I wanna see this. Pics or link to pics? Please
Do you have the entire housing?
Ok so i ordered my Inc. S Full Red housing and the Inc. S digitizer, along with new power button. I'll post pics as soon as its done.
PS
DO NOT ORDER FORM A COMPANY CALLED "GadgetTown" either eBay or there site. Horrible, horrible customer service!!
Hello, new incredible 2 user here. I have the white 2 and the power button is nearly flush and kind of hard to press. Can I buy just the button or do I gave to get the whole housing? Thanks.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA
Yes you can buy the button. I got a button and volume rocker for 12$ on eBay. Just do a search on the web and/or eBay.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA
Sweet. I found them both for 6 bucks on eBay. I hope its not hard to replace them. Thanks.
If i remember right there is a how to on youtube. its either under Incredible S or 2
Well got the swap done. Inc. S housing (red) and the Inc. S Digitizer on my Inc. 2 New power button also.

housing - $40
digitizer - $20
button - $5
There are cheaper housings by like 5$ but they are black. and the digitizer was the same, they had cheaper but i want oem HTC. Button is by far the cheapest out there.
install i paid someone, rather them mess it up and have to replace the part than me pay again for them, LOL. that was $25
So all in all it was almost $100
I bought my phone used (3 months used) for $100
PS: If you going shopping for parts on ebay or the web DO NOT use a company named Gadget Town. They have horrible, horrible customer service.
Long story short they forgot to send me the housing. I ordered screen savers and housing. When i called they only would give me a 50% refund!!! Needless to say i contacted the Ebay Resolution Center and they helped me get full refund. but took 2 weeks from time of pruchase to time of refund.

Any one know where I can find replacement screens for our phone? I just need the screen not the digitizer any help would be appreciated.

Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
for our specific phone the screen and the digitizer are fused into one which makes it much more difficult/risky to try to change separately. plus u wont find only the screen without the digitizer. I recently replaced my screen too so i can say i have experience.
refer to this if u havent:
http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Epic-4G-Touch-Teardown/6481/1
look on ebay for cheaper offers, otherwise they end up costing about $150+. i got mine for $65 shipped and it was in pristine condition
use this as a start (make sure its our phone of course):
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw...gitizer&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
dont forget to be gentle! i screwed up my original screen bc i was too rough and glass shards got btwn the screen and the digitizer, but i was also trying to separate the screen from the digitizer, which was stupid
good luck!
I have a complete housing I could sell you. Its the black one, like new condition. I am currently using the white housing on my phone, and have two black ones.

Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Man, I looked on ebay. Nobody is selling the housings anymore...that is crazy.
I dropped my phone and shattered the screen. Everything still works fine, but obviously the cracks are obnoxious.
It is my understanding that you really have to replace the AMOLED/Digitizer/Glass at once since it is nearly impossible to separate the glass from the assembly without destroying it.
So my question to those of you who have replaced yours, where is the best place to get the screen assembly? What is a fair price?
I was going to file a claim against the insurance until I saw that the deductible was $130. Used phones can often be had at that price or less, so I think I need to ditch the insurance.
Any advice is appreciated.
another question...
is the screen assembly from the T959V interchangeable with the screen assembly from the Vibrant?
The screen assembly is going to be around $100-115, might as well get a new one through the deductible.

Once I receive payment from the buyer i will pay the person who referred the sale. The buyer must mention who referred as well. I will also give the buyer a $5 discount on their purchase.

Alright, so the unthinkable happened. Yes, I dropped my beloved Note II. Less than two weeks into owning it, too.
The drop was about 2 feet and landed on my foot, then bounced onto a tile floor (yeah, I know). The fall was light and hardly made a sound, but alas I now have a spiderweb originating on the left side of my screen. It's not too bad but here are some pictures so you know the kind of damage that can befall your phones.
It was VERY difficult to take pictures of, but it's easy to see under a light. I just thought some of you might want to know how easily the screen can be broken.
If anyone has any advice on dealing with this, It would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I'm in Canada with Bell, and have their smartphone premium care plan. I haven't spoken to anyone yet as this happened this evening, but it looks like it only covers accidental damage resulting in failure, for which i have to pay 150$ for a new phone (that seems to be the only option). So for now I think I'm stuck with a very sadly broken screen. If anyone cares, I'll update later after I talk to them.
I have same plan with Bell. You will be covered. Just have to pay the $150 on your next bill and send in your old one. My daughter dropped a 3 week old bold 9900 into the toilet and it was covered!

same happened to mine today but the damage is much worse.
If anyone has experience with repair options I'd love to hear about it.
I got mine on release day, and the guy in the store took their demonstrator to lunch and dropped it. Cracked the screen on the corner.
I replaced the screen on my Inspire and it wasn't too bad. I watched the video of replacing on the GN2 and it looked quite a bit easier, so I think you would be fine trying to replace yours. Good luck
Too funny. I did the same yesterday. Had it sitting on my wallet face down on the kitchen table and it slid. I caught it with my legs, rolled off my foot and hit the ground. About a 6 inch fall at most. Two big cracks and a chip. Two generations of notes, two broken screens Haha.
Have a square trade warranty and the phone actually functions like normal so there is at least that.

The problem is that I'm not sure if it's just the glass on the front that's broken, or the OLED/ touch panel itself (since I believe it is a single panel on this phone, right?), which is at minimum 200$ to order the part. I am entirely comfortable replacing it myself, though I don't want to pay that much if I can avoid it.
I'll take it to the Bell store tomorrow and see what they can do before doing anything else though.

If you can turn it on and see the OLED is providing images then its fine. The didgitizer is all you need to replace. The ifixit link is the best place to learn from. I replace screens on many phones and as long as you follow the golden rules your going to have a great repair experience.
1. Ask or search before you guess
2. NEVER EVER force anything. If it wont budge seems to require force. Check your sorce and ask first.
3. Double check all your connections
4. Keep a clean work space with plenty of light.
5. Stay geounded. (Usa a mat, strap, or whatever.)

They have 2 insurance options
1) $7.00 - Insurance Only
2) $10.00 - Insurance + Better CS + GPS Location Services
When I was in the store to change sim cards, the in store rep told me only the $10.00 was available. However, when I called into AT&T CS, they allowed me to chose just the $7.00 option. $200.00 deductible still applies.
I believe it was covered in a previous thread, but Best Buy insurance does not cover lost or stolen phones.

Be careful about buying a cheaper display from some 3rd party store that ships out of Hong Kong. It might end up being a low end LCD instead of the replacement AMOLED. I bought mine off ebay for 220 shipped. I'd rather pay a little more than end up with a crappy display. At that point minas well just throw it away.

The phone retails for $600 (for the 16gb version). The display is 50% of the phone. $240 is not highway robbery if you break it down. I'll admit, as I've had to replace mine, that if FEELS like highway robbery but your buying one of the more essential parts of the Phone. You can do without the wifi, the bluetooth, headphone jack, speaker phone, maybe a button or 2. But you HAVE to have the high end display.

Yes I understand that most parts are made in China. I simply mean that parts from China can also be the other end of the spectrum, low end. You have to be careful who you buy from. Make sure it's a reputable company selling genuin parts. Buying through Ebay give's buyers protection from fake products. Buying from Tmart does not.
And, yes, there are low end crap replacement screens out there. When my son decided to "test" his 3GS otterbox with his other friend and the display quit working once the phone hit the ground I opted for a cheap replacement. He really didn't care as long as it still worked, plus he's lucky I fixed it at all and didn't give him my 7 year old moto flip as punishment. That display came from a Hong-Kong retailer, but I knew what I was buying from them.
