Replacement screen

I have been trying to find a replacement screen for aria, but everywhere I look they are insanely expensive or sold out. Is anyone else finding these for 40 or 50 bucks? I have looked everywhere, so if you have a tip please help a guy out here!

Cheapest I've seen is $80 on eBay.

Just found this site that lists them for $45 but they show backordered. Maybe you can contact them to see when they'll get more stock in, if ever.

Cheap htc digitizers
This is my first post, so I can't post links, but search on DealExtreme and you will find cheap digitizers for HTC.
These are probably not genuine, but worth the gamble?
Are any of these models compatible with the Aria?

Can get them on eBay though for ~$50.

wholesalegadgetparts.com has them for a little under $50.00. OEM markings, it fits, it works, fast shipping. Mine arrived in 2 days regular post (free). Follow guide on repairsuniverse.com. Be careful with the sticky stuff that holds the screen to the frame or you will have to replace it too.

Hello all.
It is compatibile digitizer and lcd between aria and gratia?
I see on Ebay that touch screen for aria is cheaper than for gratia.

Yeah it's the same.

Digitizer
Did you get the screen yet? My wife shattered her screen 3 days after the release of the Intruder (Aria) I found a new one online for $45 with tax and shipping. had to play with the stickers a little to stop light from shinning out of the sides but it was real easy replacement .....Ill look through my records if you still need it.

does the digitizer works like the original one? no problems at all?
I'm wondering if you can get an original one, beside buying a phone for parts.

[Q] Oops.. Broke my screen wrestling with the GF. What replacement is the best?

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?

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.

[Q] Replacement screen?

Hi,
The LCD on my Archos 101 Gen8 is cracked. Is there a place I can get a replacement? I've searched the internet and the two places I found cost more than half the price of the tablet itself.
Thanks in advance.

Well, here's the unfortunate news. Replacing the screen might not be the only thing you have to do. The digitizer (the thing that lets the tablet know which part of the screen is being touched) could also be broken. My Archos 70it was dropped from a 2 story ledge and in no way was that covered under warranty. It cost me $187 to get Archos to fix the screen+digitizer. Although they didn't actually fix it, they just sent me a brand new completely sealed unit. Which I think was pretty nice of them.
The unfortunate truth with most technology like tablets is that individual parts are so ridiculously expensive. It's a supply and demand thing I'm sure.
I hope you can get this all worked out.
EDIT: Also, when they talked to me about replacement they said they could either fix it for $187, or give me 20% off anything (Gen 8 and below) in the Archos store. So that's another option if you maybe want to downgrade to a smaller/cheaper unit.

Thanks for the info. The digitizer is intact, it's the actual LCD that's cracked. I only use the tablet for web browsing, so I could downgrade in terms of specs, but not screen size.
Again, thanks.

Just found this for sale in the UK for under £52

With Archos, it is ridiculously hard to find replacement items. If you find a solution, possibly post it here? Not for me, but I'm sure many people would like to know how to solve it.

They have 30-pin and 40-pin variants and I'm not sure which one fits the Gen8. Emailing them was useless as the only model no. of the back of the screen they have no idea about.

I'm selling my gen 8 101it or trading it. I posted it in general forums with pics LCD is good

So, I broke my Kindle...

I was soldering a wire onto the motherboard and then I accidentally burned my finger(That's what I get for working on it when I should have been sleeping). The motherboard went tumbling to the floor. Instead of just hitting the floor it decides to hit the leg of my table(it has a foot on the leg) and it cracked a little piece to the right of the battery plugin. Needless to say my motherboard is kaput. Also needless to say i'm kinda upset and I am in need of a new motherboard. I'm searching for a cheap broken Fire on eBay, but while i'm looking I figured i'd ask if anyone has a spare motherboard or a broken Fire that they'd be willing to sell to me for a reasonable price(Or you can donate it if you really want lulz).
Also, if anyone is interested I can mark off the piece that got cracked on ifixit's pic of the motherboard and explain what happened after it broke in more detail.

Try This
Try this link. Not a bad price for what you get
Thanks for listening.
Sincerely,

Thanks, but I can get a broken Fire on eBay for $50 or $60 and take the motherboard out of that, and then i'll also have the rest to sell as parts, so my cost in the end will prob be around $20 or so, or even less if i'm lucky.
Plus, the deal is expired already lol.

Lol.
And thanks, but like I said in my previous post getting one off of eBay still seems like a better deal, I like the idea of having extra parts to sell or keep in case I need them.
And, yeah, they're out of stock lol.

I found a used kindle fire for 130 on craigslist. If you are in a big city, I would just keep my eye there.
You might spot something on ebay as well, I see buy it now for as low as 140.

I'm not looking for a completely working one, I just need one with say a broken LCD and digitizer or some other issue. And there's a mint condition one up for $90 here, and tons of others for $125. The $90 one is a good deal, but I bought mine broken offa ebay for $60, so that's what i'm looking for.

Thanks for the support guys. Just got one on eBay for $47

Looking to replace a shattered digitizer... Looing for a reliable to place to buy

First off, I'm not sure if this is appropriate forum for this, but since it is technically a phone piece, it may fall under Accessories. If not, the mods can move it to the relevant forum.

Hey all. My wife'x Nexus 5 screen was shattered by a small vase falling on it.
I'm searching around on ebay and amazon and the price is coming out to about $80-100 for a screen/digitizer replacement.
I'm posting here to confirm if anyone else has any place they can recommend. My primary fear is that the replacement I might receive may be a cheaper/bad LCD (viewing angle wise). Is that a possibility? Or are all the replacements basically the same screen?
Thanks.

I usually get it off eBay. But there was this one seller on Amazon that I used for my N4 that was in the US and quick. Don't know if they are selling a N5 display but PM me and I can give you the deets. $80-100 is about the going rate on eBay at this time. I actually will recommend spending the extra $10-15 more for the frame included. It is a quick swap of internals at that point. Then flip the broken display up on ebay and recoup about $20 back.

Yup exactly. Really quick switch out. Just swap internals. Getting the display off of the frame is annoying since LG uses a silicon adhesive to bond the display to the frame. This makes it more resistant to heat. It is better to just sell the broken one to someone who has the time to separate all 3 components.

I am also looking to replace my broken screen. I know this is a 2 month old thread but the price listing for that right now is over $300. So I'm just wondering if I can ask you if you got your part and where? Thanks.

Ya that was the first place I saw when I initially started looking for the part but they seem to be sold out mostly and more expensive than other listings I've seen, I guess because they are OEM parts. I'll keep an eye on the site but continue looking.

I would like to order off of ebay, problem is I have zero experience ordering from dealers on ebay. What should I be looking for from sellers other than their ratings?
The pricing seems to be $1 to $50 difference for the screen + frame varying from China to the States but offer what seems to be the same product.
