Broke the digitizer, so I replaced it and when I did I also got a white housing. In that process I broke the speakers so only one works and the other one sounds like crap. Looked all over online and cant find any replacements. Anybody know where I can get some?
Check ebay, not just local but worldwide, theres a chance you may find some from a spares/repairs shop, especially from China.
Theres no guarantee but it's the only place I can think of.
Otherwise look for a seller on ebay who sells spare parts and simply ask him if he can a hold of some speakers for you from a damaged phone.
Hey thanks for the response. I looked on eBay but no dice. After searching and searching, I changed what I waS searching to "xperia play loud speaker" and found them. Problem is, one is on alibaba, which is a buy in bulk directly from the manufacturer where you have to submit a query and, well it just takes forever. And another that once I got to the cart it was all in Arabic.
In any case, I finally found them from a uk store for 8 euros a strip of 10. About to buy them so I'll report in case anyone ever needs them. They are super easy to replace, once you get the glued in factory ones ripped out.

That's great you found them. In some cases it's extremely difficult to find spares/repairs.
Best place is to look online or on ebay.
Otherwise if the worst comes to the worst you may have to send it to the manufacturer to repair.
Glad you managed to find what you wanted, quite cheap too costing you just 8 euros.
Their tiny anyway weighing a few grams and therefore shouldn't be expensive.

I pulled my Universal out of my pocket on Saturday and I have a crack down the screen on the left side.
Does anyone know a good store with Universal parts? I found a store that will repair it for me for US$250, but that is a bit too much. Assuming the screen is US$100 - US$150, I'll do it myself. I can still use it, but I really want to fix this because I love it very much.
If someone has a broken Universal that has a good LCD / Digitizer assembly, I'll buy it from you for US$100 or whatever you think is fair.
screen available on ebay
I've seen them on ebay, but they aren't cheap, the combo screen digitizer is around $200. If you want to do it yourself, there is the factory service manual on the ftp site, it's an illustrated step by step guide for disassembly and reassembly.
here is a link for the manual
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Manuals/confidential
I would say good luck, but the manual looks pretty good so you should't need it, just make sure you use an anti static pad and antistatic gloves or grounding strap.
I replaced the screen in an iPaq 3850 (pda-only) a few years ago, so I'm not really afraid of doing it... I just need to find the part in the first place! haha
Thanks for your input.
Just search for "lcd qtek 9000" on ebay and you'll find plenty of sellers of screens. I bought one myself for $180 a while ago. Worked like a charm.
From the XDA-Wiki Click on "Look up the HTC part number". then get the part number, or take apart your phone if you want to be sure. Search for the part number on google.com, froogle.google.com and ebay.
searching with froogle for TD028STEB1 I just found one on ebay. BuyItNow price of $60 with $19 shipping (plus a free screen guard). I expect that if you look a little more you may be able to get one slightly cheaper.
edit: opps I looked the one for Magician, Wizard, Apache, but you get the idea.
Looked for ACX526AKM-7 and found one store on ebay that sells it. Oddly enough the same product from the same store without that serial number in the name is between $4 and $14 cheaper (depending on bidding or buy it now).
The one without is $149.99 starting bid ($159.99) and the one with the serial in the name is $169.00 buy it now (seller "i like parts"). Comes with a tool and screenprotector.
Hi guys,
I've managed to accidentaly scratch the back cover of my Desire right at the area of camera lens which causes my photographs to be very blurry and lacking of detail.
Since this is problem only on my back cover, I though I'd buy the new cover, but unfortunately I can't find any on the internet.
Do any of you happen to know where to buy these parts or would be someone willing to send me their back cover from for example broken Desires? If someone is doing a return, I could also swap mine back cover for theirs, I'd pay every postage of course and all.
Thank you very much and sorry for my English...
if you find no one to swap/sell them theirs then go to the official htc accessory shop to get one, quite expensive though
http://www.htcaccessorystore.com
Go to official HTC webpage, there is an accessory store and they sell backcovers for £15.99.
Thanks for the reply, I just found that link a minute ago (was searching for "back cover" instead of "battery cover" all the time), 20 € for product plus 10€for shipping seems a bit too much...
I'll just wait a day or two to see if I actually find someone to sell me theirs, then I'll buy the new one...
there is one on ebay:

Has anyone seen an original HTC Desire battery cover for sale at the moment!?
Title says all. I was goofing around and had my phone in my pocket and landed on it cracking the screen in the corner. Digitizer still works but where can I find a real honest to god OEM replacement screen?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OEM-LCD-DISPLAY-SCREEN-REPLACEMENT-HTC-G2-DESIRE-Z-/350485715231?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item519a93991f
I don't want to get a cheap ripoff replacement but this looks legit (I guess) Anyone care to give an expert input on if I should get this or not?
Much thanks in advance. (Back to my Moto RAZR V3 til then)
are you sure you broke the digitizer, the lcd screen, or both?
the digitizer should cost you around $20
what you posted is the actualy lcd screen
I would buy from a US seller just avoid any complications.
check the feedback rating on the ebay seller you are buying from
chances are, they have sold the exact prduct before. See what other buyers have to say about their purchase
The digitizer is fine. I checked the function using droid explorer screencast. I cracked the LCD.
I just don't want to replace the screen with some knockoff poor quality LCD.
Thanks for the reply.
Then buying any lcd screen on ebay should be fine. You should understand that generally people on ebay aren't trying to sell you fake or non quality products, unless its blatantly a scam or too good to be true. Buy from a US seller just in case something goes, its easier to deal with. China and other overseas sellers may be able to get you the same product for less, but transit times can take a while. And paypal only has a 45 day grace period for opening disputes to get your money back, in case things go terribly wrong.

And there's many teardown guides on youtube to get you going. Easy peasy, as long as you're gently and can handle things carefully
By the way, Use the thanks button. A lot better than saying thanks in a post
Gotcha.. I whacked that button for you.
Tearing into the phone won't be an issue. The seller I have linked above is stateside so I will go ahead and purchase that and hopefully be tossing the V3 into backup phone status.
I live in Canada so buying from ebay or somewhere canadian would be helpful.
If you bought it from the Google Play store there's a chance you might get a replacement. There have been people who have called in saying they broke their screen and Google replaced the phone. It's YMMY, but it's worth a shot first before looking around to buy a new panel.
There are plenty of screen replacements on eBay for around $100

Not sure about the quality of those ones though. Could be knock offs or faulty. Unless someone knows a trusted seller?
I'll try contacting google but the screen replacements are for americans only.

With ebay you have to do some research. Find what you're looking for, then read the seller feedback and search for the item you're looking to buy. If people are leaving positive feedback about it, then you shouldnt have anything to worry about. I buy iPhone screen replacements all the time and havent had an issue yet.

I've purchased three N5 replacement screens which I carefully researched and went with the ones that seemed to be the best rated sellers (not just the cheapest option). I would never again go that route. IMHO but none of the screens were Corning Gorilla Glass 3. They each had issues that stock phones did not (dead pixels, attracted dust like a dust magnet, changed the touch characteristics, etc...). Last phone that I needed to replace a screen for I ended up going with Play Store and they did a free exchange of the unit.
I found a solution. LG in Canada charges a flat rate of $150 to fix the display which is much better than $200+ from local shops.
Google will send you another Nexus 5 if you bought it directly from them.
Might as well keep that $150 and put it towards a newer device (Nexus 6) .
Sent from my Nexus 5
I would just dump the Nexus 5 and save the money for the Nexus 6 or pick up the new Moto G.
hey guys
just replaced my battery, and the watch is back up and running but it did have a cracked back before the repair, which of course when removing to repair just broke into 3 pieces :/
i have quickly searched ebay, aliexpress (they did have them, but no currently not available) doh
i am in the uk, anyone know where i can source one?
so close to having my watch back off life support lol
Been searching again, there isn't even a third party version :/
Any advice would be great
Happy new year to you all
the userquick update i am still not having any luck, i have messaged a seller on aliexpress that used to sell them, will keep you all update.
i did find a seller, but the price is crazy this is the link https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free-Shipping-Back-Housing-Cover-For-Motorola-Moto-360-Cover-Case-Battery-Door-For-Moto-360/32652754303.html?spm=2114.01010208.3.1.b4HcxE&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_4_10065_10068_10000009_10084_10083_10080_10082_10081_10110_10111_10112_10060_10113_10114_10062_10056_503_10055_10054_10059_10099_501_10078_10079_10000012_10103_10073_10102_10000015_10096_10052_10053_10107_10050_10106_10051,searchweb201603_9,afswitch_2,single_sort_3_default&btsid=46806dcd-e5f7-48b2-aa9b-fc9da640b3d1
Yea its very annoying. I want to replace the battery on mine, but even my buddy who is used to removing stuff stuck with adhesive says mine will crack under the pressure of removing it.
Found this
https://www.google.ie/url?sa=t&rct=...hFsAMyQTDVs0tQZuQ&sig2=F3qSETGQxKOqWTix_gOMJA
But its brings the cost for me (In Ireland) to over 30 dollars
still too pricey for a bit of plastic
Ye I am having no luck either :/ I did check your link it does seem to be working...
I have been looking for damaged/faulty motos on ebay to see if I can salvage a back off one :/
