Hello there,
my N7 second Gen device unfortunately got damaged during transport. The small bezel between screen and back case of the device got cracked at one corner.
A search did not bring up any results concerning repair options or parts, therfore I would be very happy for any advice what I can do to fix my tablet. Is the bezel available as a replacement part (I hope so), or is more nescessary?
Best regards
Hans
You may need to contact them directly for the specific part to order: http://us.estore.asus.com
Cheapest and easiest thing to do is buy a refurbished N7 2013 or a used one with a good screen, then swap the guts (main pcboard) from yours to the replacement. I got one for about $140 from Woot.com last month after trying to find a cheaper replacement screen with no luck. The N7 2012 screen won't work, of course.
Now I have a spare battery and such in reserve !

Hello everybody,
Is the LCD and touchscreen assembly the same on the Wifi only version and on the 4G LTE version?
I believe it is.
I recently replaced the broken (shattered) screen in my Nexus 7 2013 LTE. I purchased a replacement screen from ebay for a little over $100. NOTE: The replacement is the lcd and digitizer. HOWEVER, the screen is attached (fused) to a plastic mount using very strong double sided adhesive tape. Opening up the device and getting everything out wasn't too hard, but getting the screen off the plastic mount was a huge pain. I ended up tearing the adhesive completely off the plastic and using super glue to adhere the new screen to the plastic. It's iffy at best, but I have it installed in my car now and I purchased another one for everyday use. Moral of the story: you may just want to buy a new one and sell the broken one on ebay or something.

Hope that helps.
I am getting the nexus 7 2012 led screen for around $40. Shall I but it? Will it be compatible with nexus 2013 LTE?

No, do not buy the 2012 screen for the 2013 model, I believe the screen size is a little different and also because the camera is in a different place
The resolution of the 2 screens are different. Not going to work. Even if it did, why would you even consider going from 1920x1200 to 1200x800?
My first two tab pros had 3-5 dead pixels under the screen and the current one now has 2-3 specks of dust under the screen. They were purchased from Amazon if that matters to anyone.
Has anyone else had these issues?

I have dust under the screen, I've bought from local retailer, Samsung repair center told me to wait for a month until they have parts to replace it.

My first Tab Pro 8.4 had a lot of dust/smudging in one corner. I bought it from Best Buy so I took it back. The replacement is fine.
Not the 8.4 but 12.2 tab pro from Amazon had a problem--either a group of dead pixels or sediment beneath the digitizer not just beneath the screen. The replacement had been opened (updated os plus re-taped) apparently to be inspected by Amazon. It has no issues although, ironically, there was a lot of debris inside the box of the replacement. Each was shipped from a different distribution center.

I must have gotten lucky with my 8.4. My wife is on her 3rd 10.1 right now. Dead pixel on the first one and the second one had some strange issue with the screen in one spot where it was too shiny or reflective. It wasn't a dead or stuck pixel. So far the 3rd one is good.
Almost makes me wonder if Amazon deals with B stock items, seems most of thr complaints come from there.

I had 2 dead pixels on my first one from best buy when they first came out. i exchanged it and knock on wood it has been perfect. luck of the draw imo
Got mine from Amazon early March and it appeared to be fine. This weekend I noticed a stuck pixel, and now in process of returning it.
Pity to hear about this, given Samsung is an A-brand.
Dust on the camera lens
My phone fell and now screen is broken for an half.Going in an asus store i think they will pluck me for sure.I wanna buy a new display,not necessarily the original display,and then go to a simple electronic shop and get the display changed.Where can i buy it from ebay or amazon ? phone is broken in the up left corner too
Probably on ETradeSupply.com at a good price, I bought things for my nexus 4, one year ago.
Best regards

If you just need the digitizer and not the screen, then Aliexpress has it for 19$ http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Orig...us-Zenfone-2-ZE551ML-5-5Inch/32345429065.html

I've bought 3 or 4 from China. They're good where the vendor is reputable. Look at the number of units sold and the ratings. They're around 45USD. Removing the assembly from the frame is doable, but replacing just the digitizer is NOT recommended, as I've tried at least 5 of them from various sellers and none worked properly. Plus the digitizer touches the LCD at several points and without LOCA, would create rainbow spots, which would not affect functionality, but esthetically undesirable. There are guides on how to go this is you Goog. Have fun.
I replaced 2 screens on 2 N7, yes, buy the LCD+digitizer+screen combo. Even then, removing the broken screen from the frame is difficult, the melting point of the glue is very high and on both N7 I melted a little bit the frame...
I bought the 2 combo here:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/181285339236?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
One had a dead pixel after a few days and is kind "yellowish", the other one is as OEM and has better color/white balance, so YMMV.
I think i ll go for the 2 combo. I hope that it will not be yellowish. Thank you for the help!
Hello:
I wanted to know if any of you knows of a good seller on ebay or any other place thats not amazon where i can buy a new lcd screen replacement for my ze551ml, i was trying to purchase one and i notice some ads doesnt have the logo and i wanted one with the logo on it, or maybe its just that they erase the logo to be able to sell it?
Well if anyone knows of a good seller or can pass me the link for one please tell me.
Thanks in advance!
If it's any help, I've bought several LCDs and/or front glass for various phone over the years. Some sellers black out the brand names in pictures. (Even if the item ships with a logo.) A lot of replacement glass has arrived with a black sticker covering the "Samsung" (or whatever) logo. I can only assume this is for copyright protection, limiting sellers' liability for any push back against parts sold outside of "official" channels, and/or 3rd party replacements.
Just because it's missing from the pics doesn't mean the replacement won't have it. May be worth emailing the seller(s)?

as awoolf said. you must not worry about brand logo it is always written whether shown on image or not. here are few recommendations. from where ever you buy buy screen with frame. with frame it is super easy to replace and not much difference in price. without frame i have broken new screen replacement many time. second if you can wait always buy from china. especially from aliexpress. they send quality product with cheap price. last week i got one for ZE551ML for $23. it came with glasss screen guard and tools. it took 12 days to reach me from order date. use app to order screen. as a new user you may get $2 or $4 coupon. but keep in mind from wherever you order get it with frame. here is a link which i bought.

But wouldn't the sellers on Ebay and such be some sort of knockoffs ? Because I need an LCD, mine is a little bit cracked, but I dont wan't a chinese low quality copy. I would like genuine ASUS parts!
I just bought a replacement from this seller works flawlessly eBay
•No dead pixels
•Asus Logo on the front
•No digitizer issues
•2 day shipping
I love my zenfone 2 all over again after installing this new screen its actually a very easy fix as well.

buddy you need to understand from where ever you buy weather said to be original. it will be a copy. untill you buy directly from asus service center. all so called genuine are copy. asus issue original part only on a RMA to service center only.
as per quality is concerned either you buy from ebay, amazon or local sellers. it will ultimately come from china. i have purchased several LCD's from china had no issue and no one could differentiate it from original.

Ah, okay I understand. It's because I want the best for phone. Because it is always worthy to spend a few more on good quality parts than bad quality ones that break after a while

Had a replacement screen from China via eBay and bought the screen, digitizer and frame all in one for around $30 and no issues at all
Original one died, had the lines through it
So in essence why go original when the original stuffed up.
So happily went with one that offered good warranty and all worked out well
Had bought a second screen and frame also
So have a full frame spare and essentially glass as well

I also have the infamous tearing lines on mine, I ordered this screen with frame so no glueing or things like this
https://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/0.html?orderId=86319706999709&productId=32823303482
Should take 15 minutes to install.
EDIT: I realized I bought the same one as @sukhwant717
I received mine, looks like great quality, easy to install too ?
