Hi guys,
I'm very new to the forums. I have been using various tablets for the last few years now, but my favourite is the Samsung Galaxy Notes, I have had the 8.0(G5110), the n8013, and now the P600. I love love love the way the S-Pen works.
Anyway, I bought the P600 on ebay, with broken glass. I had bought the n8013 on ebay with broken glass as well, and it was easy to replace. No big deal. I assumed the P600 would be the same, but boy, was I WRONG!! I couldn't find any breakdown or repair videos for the P600 on youtube, for the screen. I thought I was too cool and could figure it out, so I went about taking it apart. I think that some of the seasoned people here will know what happened next right? I broke the LCD screen inside, because the damn thing was fused/glued to the digitizer. FML!!! Anyway, I learned from that mistake. Now, I'm having trouble finding a replacement LCD assembly for it, for a sensible price. Does anyone know where the absolute cheapest replacement LCD for the P600 can be found? Is it ebay?
Another important thing, can the LCD from the n8013 be used in the P600? I tried the charging connector out of the P600 in the N8013, because there is a problem with the charging port of the n8013, and when I put the end of the charging connector from the p600 in the n8013, without ever being plugged into actual electricity, the cable got hot, the actual ribbon charging one, not the outlet charger. I'm assuming it might be a different voltage, different conduction or something. I'm making stuff up to sound smart now. LOL.
Anyway, any advice at all on this, or where I should look, please let me know. I have searched a few times for tips and ideas on how to fix things, and this forum has shown up more than a dozen times during my various searches, so I figured I would finally join and post.
Also, even though I did some stupid things with these tablets, I am a fairly intelligent person. I just learn more from mistakes than I do from never making a mistake...lol
find it on Ebay. The one made from China is about 175$ but I don't trust this. I found this one for you, 207$ seems to be the cheapest.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to look for me. I should have mentioned that I'm in Canada, that seller doesn't ship to Canada. Why didn't you trust the other seller, who was cheaper?

because the screen made in China (clone) and I don't know if it has the same specs as the original screen. You would want to buy a used screen instead.
How about this one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/LCD-Touch-D...e_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item19f5cb6e4d
I don't mind buying used, if it works. I'm hoping to keep it around $175 or so, as that's about as far as I can stretch my budget at the moment. If I can't get one for that, I will have to wait for a little while. I was hoping I didn't have to. Do you know if the lcd from the n8013 would be compatible? Thanks again for your help!

No it's not compatible, don't try it, it may smoke your main board.
Thank you, that is very good to know. I would hate to do that. LOL

I cracked my screen today and need to replace the lcd. I looked on eBay and it seems like the screens are fairly cheap, are they all the same or should I buy from a particular seller? Does anyone have any experience with any of the eBay vendors?
Thanks

Welcome to the forum
This one looks pretty decent.
http://www.gethightech.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=XX2077&Category_Code=DASH
Good luck,
I bought about 5 or 6 allready from ebay, last 3 I got from a guy called jecomgroup. They charge around 16€ (all included), I guess that's around 21$. Delivery is allways from HongKong. Takes around 5 or 6 days to get to Europe (belgium). Never had a problem with them yet.
Can't speak for the ebay vendors, I used this one;

Got the T-5/6 bits from Lowes.
touchscreen replacement possible?
this might be dumb to ask..but i was wondering since it was on the subject of screen replacement, if you were to put a touchscreen glass instead of the regular dash one, it won't make it touchscreen right? 'Cuz the OS doesn't recognize it to be one?
The OS *might* recognize the touchscreen...but how would you interface it? There is no hardware connector!
It is possible to hack touchscreens on mini-notebooks like the Asus EEE, because there are internal USB ports that allow them to be connected to the machine.
To my knowledge, there is no such port in the Dash.
Chuck
thanks for the reply. I've just always wondered..cuz i mean, the touch strip on the end gives it a good little touchscreenesque vibe, being able to scroll and click and what not with it, but it would be pretty awesome if it were touch. Either way, I'm happy with my dash!
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.
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 bought an S3 to repair, but got an S4 instead. I messed up replacing the glass, so the digitizer doesn't work. The LCD works fine, and the rest of the device works well, but is heavily scarred. If someone is looking for a mainboard or something, PM me. I'd rather sell or possibly donate to someone on this community than give money to fleabay.
I have the phone (white), two batteries that have good charge still, and blue replacement glass. I may be willing to separate pieces, including parting out the phone.

Mind telling how you messed up the digitizer? I'm about to replace the glass on my S3 also and would like to minimize the chance of screwing up.
Thanks!
How much would you sell me a battery, mine is horrible can't even stay on for more than 3hrs and I also need the headphone jack piece, on mine I can only hear through one side
Please take further discussion to PM
I just bought my pro 8.4 less than 2 weeks ago and some how I broke the lcd.. The screen looks perfect till its turn on.. Then u see cracks and the screen all messed up. Now what do I do? Can I get parts. Where and how much or is there a place that does it reasonably priced? I can't even find YouTube videos on replacing the lcd on the pro 8.4. Please any suggestions would be really appreciated.. I loved the tablet and want it saved!
This doesn't answer your question, but did you by any chance purchase with a credit card? I've noticed many have accident/theft coverage for up to 120 days after purchase. If not, you can call Samsung to find out options. Google took me here http://www.etradesupply.com/samsung/tablet/samsung-galaxy-tab-pro-8-4-sm-t320-replacement-parts.html then http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2710711 post 8 says it's same teardown as for galaxy 4 10.1 2014.

Snap the backcover off and go to town. It'll be a blast. These days everything you need to take off to get to the screen is just plugs that snap right off their port.

That's what I found too. The digitizer isn't broke, the actual LCD is. I'll have to call Samsung to see my options. I think i'm ass-out for a while cuz i really wouldn't think the lcd is available yet and if it is its gonna be almost as much as the tablet! Sux! At least i have my Galaxy Note 10.1 2012 .. gt-n8013 with now kk with air command on it. The screen on the 8.4 pro was a billion times sharper and it was way faster and i love the leather back! Thans for your help.. Anything else comes up that can help just please let me know.
Thanks again guys!

Now on your ebay link it looks like the lcd and screen digitizer are sold together .. I did know that they sold em together. If that's the case, that's a much easier fix cuz removing the screen/digitizer from the lcd assembly looks like a pain in the assz! Thanks for your help! If anything else that comes up that will help me out, let me know
Thanks again guys!
Oh, off topic question, how many posts do i have to make to be able to post in development sections of the forums, i usually have alot to offer in the development sections but don't have the privileges to post there. What do i have to do to make it possible for me to help in these sections, i have alot to offer!
I'm pretty sure they are glued together on the assembly in your tablet too. In order to separate them you'd need a heat gun and a lot of patience. But it's doable. You'd be able to clean the adhesive off the screen gently afterwards. But yes, to save room the manufacturers these days glue the two parts together, hence why they are also sold as glued together. But I've seen people separate them with a heat gun before. And yes, it is a mess, no matter what. Buying the full assembly would be much more fun and also faster.
