Broken display. Help needed. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi. few days back my galaxy nexus fell on the concrete floor first display and the screen got broken. i guess the galaxy nexus screen is not well protected as this was the first time it fell and broke. So you better use a casing.
Anyway.. the problem is, i went to the shop to get it repaired but they don't have the display of Galaxy nexus. I live in Bangladesh (South East Asia) and apparently not enough Galaxy Nexus has made it here. So what do i do? I love my nexus way too much to buy a new phone and it has not been a year since i am using it.
What i was thinking is that, many of you might have a nexus which is not working, probably a bad mother-board, with perfect display. Some of you might have a spare nexus which you are not even using. So will it be possible for you to ship it here? I just need the display so that i can repair it .i could have bought it from ebay, but ebay is not yet available in our country. I know it is a lot to ask, but i am ready to pay every penny. If any of you want or can help me, please write here, i will send all my details.
Thanks a lot. I will be really grateful

You can buy a display off of eBay for like 70-80$ if it will ship to your country

Ebay does not provide their service in Bangladesh. Otherwise i would have done that.

thanks for your help..
very expensive though :S
For that price your better off selling yours on ebay and purchasing a new one for yourself that you know will last......
you could try contacting samsung, it could work out cheaper.
this is why i have insurance. while i rarely drop my phone, it does happen. it hasnt yet, but i know i probably wouldnt spend 300 on a new screen. for that i could buy a different 4g phone off contract.... id go and sell my broken nexus.
Some of us here who purchased in the grey market obviously can't get our phones insured. Easier said than done.

What do you mean by grey market? like craigslist? and thats why i said id by another phone, its a sly way of saying that the screen costs more then some of the current 4g phones do. You could literally buy a Razr off of craigslist for 280... http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/mob/2770665120.html
I realize the ability to customize the phone is nice, but not at the expense of a small fortune. if you bought it off contract in the first place that at least what 5, $600 already down, then if you replace screen your in it for $900. Buy a razr or the thunderbolt ... or something, then wait a couple months for the next greatest phone to come out and the price of the parts will come down then the screen can be replaced for cheaper.

Seems like the eBay one is an LCD, not Super AMOLED.
That one in the ebay link has the lcd also, which is why it's so expensive. As soon as the digitizers start being sold by themselves (glass screen only), it will be much cheaper.

When they say it's a LCD, it was referring to the actual part of the phone, the "Screen", and not that the screen is using the LCD technology, the galaxy nexus is only available with HD Super Amoled technology for the screen, unlike the Nexus s that has both Super Clear LCD (i9023) or Super Amoled (i9020), if that what you are referring to.

I think it's the same with all Amoled technology, the screen and digitizer are only sold as one, they cannot be purchased separately.

The glass and lcd are fused together. In order to replace one, you have to replace them both.
No pics? Forum rules clearly state that if your going to post that you have a broken screen, you must also post an accompanying picture for proof of the incident and to satisfy those of us that take pleasure in others pain
all joking aside, i hope you are able to resolve this with minimal damage to your wallet (and ego)
this also makes me happy i bought the insurance option from best buy, though i never had to use it for the incredible, i like the idea of no deducible if this were to happen to me.
My screen is broken aswell (from the inside..) so the glass is still silky smooth on the outside.. and the whole screen is black and i can see 5 veins of broken glass on the right hand side of the phone.
But one thought that ive had is.. the 4G and the 3G versions are very different, seen from the back, will this be an issue if i buy a new screen on ebay?
could check out these guys but i dont know how expensive it is
http://www.globaldirectparts.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=samsung+i9250
i found this https://www.gounlock.com/details.php?itemId=7607 much cheaper
I'm on Verizon and I got my Nexus for Christmas.. All of a sudden it started getting this massive crack without dropping it and it's normally the only thing in my pocket. Anyways, I called Verizon and (kindly/politely) asked them if I could add insurance late. It took a while, but it eventually got done. I then paid Insurion a $100 deductible (and will pay $6/month for continuous coverage) and then sent me a brand new phone (with free battery and charger). Granted, I still had to pay $100 and will keep paying per month, but at least my phone will be safe from the little things and $100 is small compared to the other option.
tl;dr: Call Verizon, kindly persist and ask for Insurion late, get new phone

[Q] Recomendation for buying a screen replacement

Hi, I'm new here so apologizes if I break any forum etiquette
Some days ago I accidentally dropped my Galaxy Nexus i9250 and shattered the screen.
Looking around I found that I need to get he digitizer plus LCD screen since they are fused, I found a couple of alternatives in ebay but I'm not sure which one to get.
Basically I'm between two options, the first one is a LCD + Touch Screen Digitizer +Front Cover Replace and the second one is just the digitizer and LCD screen.
Of course I want to get the most closer to the original part and although the first seller told me it's the original part I'm not sure about it.
In the second item you can actually see the Samsung logo so that's probably an original part.
Do anybody has a suggestion about which way to follow?
I would post links to the items in ebay but I can't cause I'm new.
Thanks,
Javier

It's been discussed in several threads, people usually say it's better to send it to samsung and let them fix it than buying the digitizer+lcd , coz in terms of money u wouldn't be saving much if u're planning to buy the parts urself.
P.s. posting in Q&A might have been more proper, plus u'd probably get more answers and ideas

Thanks, the problem is that I'm in a country where the Galaxy Nexus isn't sold, so I talked with Samsung and they told me that they can repare it but I have to send it to the US and they will mail it back to a mainland US address when fixed.
I did that once for a laptop and it took a lot of time and money, actually it will cost the same than getting a brand new phone.
This is why I need to do it myself.

[Q] Where to buy replacement housing/rear frame?

Well, it had to happen sooner or later. Today I dropped my phone for the first time ever! The only problem is that the phone was my brand new N7100. Anyone know where to get a quality replacement housing? Screen and battery cover are okay. Only chrome was scratched.

What I need, is a reliable seller that has a quality rear housing. My problem is that I've never heard of any of these sellers and I have no idea how well the housings they're selling were made.
Could someone please point me in the right direction? Have any of you ever ordered from one of these sellers? I'm really short on options here. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

I would say check out www.cnn.cn I have used that site in the past to get parts for various smartphones of mine especially BB stuff way back in the day. I know they have GN2 N7100 dummy phones for sale, so you may be able to use the parts on one of those.

Ya', cnn.cn carries the housing. It's actually one of the links I included in my previous post. I appreciate you letting me know that they're a straight-forward business though. That was my main worry. However, location is also another big worry for me. Are you aware of any suppliers in the United States or Europe? Communication, shipping times, and reliability are just so much better when you're not dealing with potential scammers in China; and for some reason, it's always China.
I've worked with businesses and eBay sellers in South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, India, Australia, the U.K., Germany, and China, and it's always China. I've had a chinese business try to scam me. I've had a chinese business ship me shawdy replacement parts and claim that they're original. If it's not one thing, it's another. Then on the flipside, all of the best stuff comes from China. I have a supplier in China that gets me all of my replacement iPhone parts for my business, and they're fantastic; so is his customer service! It's just so difficult to determine which sellers are good and which sellers are total crap.
Anyway, I should wrap this up. If I don't, it'll turn into a neverending rant. So, if you say that cnn.cn is a good, reliable seller, I guess I'll go ahead and give them a shot. I appreciate your post, and hope you have a pleasant day. Take care and have a good one!
Thank you,

Sorry Ed, I am not aware of any other suppliers to recommend. I live here in the US as well and have purchased from them many times all without any issue. Still it can be concerning when ordering something from overseas and waiting and waiting and waiting some more for it to arrive.
if it's only scratched chrome, it won't bother me with the protective cover on, hehe

[Q] Req suggestion on GNEX - Indian Users

Hi Guys.. Im using Samsung Galaxy ACE Rightnow..
I hve planed to move-on & YES to Either Galaxy S II (OR) Galaxy Nexus..
The choice i hve is Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S2 and HTC One S. and the choice is due to my budget.
i know the NEXUS 4 has launched...but as for the news i heard.. LG gona either sell it for above 30k or don't launch it India as samsung did..
The problem i found in getting the Gnex is that,
1. its not yet been officially launched in the India, so no HW & Software warranty.
2. Prob in the GSM Network Getting Locked.
3. lower spec compared to the S2.
My cousin has jus bought GNEX frm ebay las month, n a week before his gsm module got locked while he try to update to 4.1.2..he says like its asking for " SIM Netwrok unlock Pin ".
The cons i hve with the S2 is ..
1. Poor design.
2. No quick android update... the current update of Android is 4.2 & still s2 got just the ICS. Dono y samsung guys forgot their device after selling them..
3. Absence of dedicated notification light.
So pls do help me buying a correct device...
Either GO for the nexus Device or the Samsung galaxy S II....
Thanks in advance...

It is strange that ur cousin got network locked Galaxy Nexus. Normally the ones that sell on ebay are factory unlocked.
I and several of my friends have GNex for past seix months and its like no issues at all since 4.1.1. If only network unlock is an issue you can buy it from reputed ebay vendor, see his feedback. As regards warranty, I have the serve pro thing but I do not know how would it benefit me if the phone develops some hardware snag.
you can get Nexus 4 16GB from shopyourworld.com for about 26k, agains warranty would be an issue.
But in any case S2 stands no where even miles close to G Nex. Galaxy Nexus is "Galaxy Nexus - sheer beauty"
1) I've yet to come across anyone with any really serious hardware problems with the Galaxy Nexus. From what I've read around, there are people who can and do repair hardware faults with the Nexus. Just have to look for them, I suppose. And software-wise, it's almost unbrickable!
2) Again, never seen this issue either. I got my Nexus running 4.0.4, upgraded to 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and now to 4.2 without any issues whatsoever. Just make sure you're buying a factory unlocked piece and you're all set.
3) What lower spec?! Apart from the camera and the microSD card slot, the SII has nothing on the Nexus! The Nexus even has a bigger screen than the SII. And add to that the fact that the Nexus already has 4.2, which the SII will take time to get, and definitely not officially, I'd think the Nexus would be a no-brainer!
gnex has a much much better screen at 720x1080p where as s2 is 480x800p

software wise dont worry at all since it is a nexus, i assume anyways you will root it ( main reason to get a nexus i presume ) so when you are rooted you will unlocked worldwide so not a problem at all
still if you want to check the phone then the best you can do is make few calls and check if everything is working, other than that i cant think of anything

I do owe a galaxy nexus which I bought from US Google play store so I have a takju device and I have always got updates quickly
No problem with that because its of course unlocked
But the only problem with gnexus is it gets way too hot during charging if I keep data packets on or play games for 10 -15 minutes (sometime even crosses 48 degree Celsius Mark)and I am not alone which has got this prob
My cousin has got one from a store in Jaipur and he also has got this overheating prob while charging
I have googled this topic and found that this is a common problem with Gnexus
And this overheating occurs only when I am using my cell while charging
I am on stock but will now consider changing my kernel to under volt my nexus
Hope this will solve this over heating issue during charging
BTW any one with same problem of overheating while charging?

Galaxy Nexus broken

Hi,
my friend dropped his Galaxy Nexus on the floor and broke the screen (glass and display). But the phone seems to be working, since it gives the vibration and a little sound when turned on and off. When connected to the PC the storage is displayed correctly (all the photos are there). The problem is when i stick the SIM and when i try to call it fails to receive the call, but afterward you can see the LED notification blinking the white color about every 7 secs.
Since i cannot return for warranty because it was dropped, now im looking to buy the display. Prices seem a bit high...
The question that I've got is this: Is it worth to Change the Display? Can I be sure that the phone will eventually work?
It concerns me the fact that maybe something else is damaged.
Any help or thought is appreciated.
Many thanks.
PS: My friend is a Noob when talking about phones and he didnt know whether it was on 4.0.4 or 4.2.1
It will work properly.
What is the price for screen ??

Thanks for your fast answer,
I've been searching over the internet and the lowest price i could find was about $120, was hoping a bit less since other phones like galaxy s3 was like $40. Can you find me any display?

Samsung Galaxy Nexus repair how to
Hi. Only to comment: My Galaxy Nexus bought on the Google Play store started freezing after 9 months... typical intermittent problem.
I had a hard time to find how to create a ticket request to have the Galaxy Nexus repaired.
This is the web page with information:
CAN"T POST LINKS!!! www[dot]samsung[dot]com[slash]us[slash]support[slash]service[slash]warranty[slash]GT-I9250M
I called the Samsung Android phones repair center (at midnight PDT) and got the ticket number, service repair approval. They sent me the regular mail label and I sent it. Now I'm waiting for the repaired phone.
Good luck.
