Are there any independent repair shops that can replace the HTC Evo glass? Anyone had any experience? Pricing?
Thanks!
Don't mess with it.
Take it to sprint. Pay them the $35 to overnight a new phone to you.
you mean the digitizer or both lcd and digitizer, btw full front panel replacement w/digitizer, lcd and housing for $75 or less on ebay, just did that today on a evo i bought off craigslist w/ cracked lcd & digitizer took 10 minutes max to do.
watch this dissembly guide http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0ys12y3Xvw
Hello ,
Yesterday I managed to drop my Note 2 and crack the front glass of the handset. The screen itself is totally un-damaged.
After looking around on the internet it became quickly apparent that 3rd party repair centre's don't really want to touch the handset. I have called Samsung and they have sent me out a jiffy bag to send the handset back to them to get repaired. Obviously this will not come under manufacturers warrenty and I will be charged for the replacement. Does anyone know how much the front glass (not the screen) cost to replace? I saw someone mentioned around $180 however I live in the UK. Any guide lines on how much I will have to pay to get them to replace the broken glass would be great so I dont get a nasty surprise.
Thanks,
J
Mine dropped from two feet and hairline cracked across the whole screen. I bought the full assembly LCD/digitizer. Did the repair per LE55ONS. AOK now. afterwards, I tried to pry apart the digitizer glass. In my Note II it is bonded with transparent gum covering the entire LCD. No way to replace only the digitizer on my version of the Note II
Mine was $249 USD
Hello
Today my Z1C digitizer got broken (cracked), it got broken without any drops, I suspect phone bend or something, but I can't find real reason why it cracked in 1 place.
LCD is in perfect condition. I wanted to order digitizer however everyone offer complete expensive set (digitizer with lcd etc).
Is there possible to repair phone by only replacing digitizer or Z1C have digitizer integrated with lcd, or there is something why all offer full set only ?

My screen developed a hairline crack, the same as you, I couldn't work out how it happened, I didn't drop it or anything.
I raised a call to Sony support to say that the top half of the screen had stopped responding (true), didn't mention crack as it was almost impossible to see.
After doing the ususal 'plug it in to PC Companion and repair' guidance from the helpdesk, it was decided to send it back to service centre.
7 days later my phone was back with repaired screen, no cost.
I think Sony are brilliant for repairing screen damage, I don't know of any other manufacturer that does that.
Try to get your phone repaired on warranty.
One month a go i have broken my touch but the glass is not broken, i believe this happened when I sat in my car. The phone was in my left front short pants poket, but slipped underneath i believe and that made a bending procedure and broke only the touch.
Is it worth replacing it? and what will be the costs?
If you do the repair yourself then yes it's still worth it. But it may not be easy for someone not used to doing these repairs. Check YouTube for guides. LCDs go for just under £60 in the UK.
If you have to pay a repair shop or use a Samsung service center then maybe not because will probably cost you the same as buying another handset. Maybe.
In service center where I'm working we are changing whole front panel for about 70$ using original Samsung part. Last week we sold used i9195 in perfect condition for about 130$ so as You can see front panel will cost You about half price of used phone. Of course You can buy cheaper phone in worse condition but it still be more than this part. Replacing process is quite simple but to peel off sim card slot is a little tricky so watch some disassembly tutorial first.
Good luck.
When u say whole front panel, u mean touch and gorilla glass. Coz i heard on a forum that the screen after a while become yellow. But i think that was g glass replace.
No, I meant whole front with display cause Samsung S line has digitizer (touch) on display, not like other phones on glass. So if You change only glass Your touch will be broken still. Whole fron is glass, digitizer, display and part of body with silver line around screen.
K thanks for the info!
my fone was dropped on floor n got cracks on screen .. plz check pics ... screen is working fine .. so is this only front glass broken n can i just get the front glass replaced or its a bigger spending ... checked glass on ebay india its just 1499 rupees .
forget that screen only replacement its not happening unless you have specialist tools your going to have to buy a new screen and digitiser and connect it to the phone

Happened to me once with my s4, the glass was cracked but the amoled panel was working just fine. I decided it was worth taking risk and decided to leave to a man in the mobile market. The man said there's no guarantee, the panel can get damaged during removal with the help of heat and re-applying and that he will charge 2000 pkr regardless of the outcome (glass + labour). In the end it worked for me. I was in your place I would take the gamble.
You guys are forgetting something: OnePlus does not sell parts to anyone! So anything you see on ebay is not official.
The only way to get official replacement parts is to send the phone to OnePlus service center.
Screen replacement costs about 150€ IIRC (covert that to your currency).

m not gonna do that myself .. just asking for approx costs like will i have to replace the screen as well or they will replace just glass ... will definitely take it to customer care as getting repaired outside will void my warranty ... so just asking to have an estimate of the cost or repair

Ask oneplus, my friend replaced his glass only with a fake glass one that broke in his pocket, best bet it to bring it to the customer support and get a glass screen protector asap.

Happened to me 1 month ago and sent to Oneplus for repair it: got it back after 1 week from Poland with an expence of 90 Euro in total.
Consider that the cost include transportation from my home in Italy to Poland and viceversa with UPS.
Looking if there was someone else in Italy repairing it, and I found one with a cost of 220 Euro (already tested with a OP2 of a colleague of mine)... sparepart costs 190 Euro.
Honestly, if possible for yourself, I would highly suggest you to open a ticket in OnePlus.
replaced few units "glass only", it takes time, but customers is happy with result and price
just foned oneplus ppl n they said full lcd needs to b replaced :/ n cost is 12000 rupees about 180-190 dollars ...
alone glass from ebay costs just 1500 rupees about 22-25 dollars ..
should i get it repaired from outside ?
what i think is its just front glass thats broken but scared that if i get it repaired n after removing glass it comes out that screen also damaged then i will loose warranty also by getting repaired from outside and have to buy screen also

Glass only, it absorbed all the force.. But getting glass of a sandwiched amoled panel is tricky.. Really tricky. Watch it on youtube.. Its better to replqce the whole screen in my opinion. Just send it to oneplus imo.

bro use the servify Accidental damage that came with the device it'll be done for freee
Anyone see this ?
link
i want to know if someone try this on the OP3 , my screen is broke and i want to replace for this ..
its say LCD , not AMOLED .
the color black in LCD be like the black color on a IPS screen?
If screen is working fine, reacts to touch, then glass only repair can be done.
@SunnyGrewal11, I think you are Indian and if you registered for accidental damage protection plan provided by servify then rest assured.
Because under this plan servify provides screen replacement for just nominal cost of Rs. 1000. yes only Rs.1000.
Contact servify for more information.
======
1 month back i also cracked screen due to accidental fall. I just contacted servify. they properly guided me to file a claim for repair.
To file claim you have to download app "OnePlus care By servify" from play store.
Procedure to file claim is given in app itself and its simple to understand.
After providing necessary documents I taken device to authorized repair center ( oneplus partnerd with several 3rd party repair centers across country).
I paid just Rs.1000 via app.
I got device repaired in only 4 days.

If someone will decide to teardown and sell by parts, i need battery cover and pls. contact me...
I dropped my OP3 on the concrete last week. I had the original sandstone case, but the impact was very hard so the case corner was damaged and it went through. Now there is little scratch on a phone's corner. Without the case, the device would have been shattered.
I'm now worried about my phone. How long was the height of fall. Also you should try contacting servify.

do you have any recommendations on where to order front glass replacements for the OnePlus 3? all the parts i've found so far sound a little doubtful...is there any source with quality glass comparable to the original?
Comparable to original, is only cutted straight from original lcd assembly using wire. All replacements "china oem", "hq" "a++" will not be the same as original which cames with brand new phone. Sometimes in eBay peoples selling bronken lcd assembly with good condition glass.
