Recently, my Nexus 5X LCD broke from the inside of the phone. The outside is flawless.
On ebay I came across this thing here, wich is the LCD+Digitizer+Frame. Basiclly, it's the whole front part withouth the motherboard and other back parts.
Do you think this is legit OEM screen and should I order it and just switch my parts with this since the only thing that is broken on mine is the LCD screen?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-LG-Go...847502?hash=item51dab812ce:g:U34AAOSwUV9WnMRe
Anyone tried doing something similar?
I don't want to use a certified LG repeair service since in my country, they charge you 4x as much for something like LCD display.
50$ and self-repair seems legit to me.
Im scared of getting a hoax screen and stuff

I think you can't find oem parts on ebay because I read that oem parts are available only on LG repair service. Probably on ebay you can find only copies of the oem product but the most of the times they work well as an original part.
Have anyone personally tried any of this parts?
I need to replace LCD+Digitizer+Frame too, but I would like to buy a part that has a good feedback by someone...
I'm going to try that OEM later this month and report here. Fingers crossed for it to be good. I dont care if its OEM or not as long as it works as an OEM.
I found out that many sellers claim to sell the original LG part. Just search around for "ACQ88485501".
Do you think it is true or is it just a trick to sell the same part with an higher price...?

I ordered the part two weeks ago. It should get here tomorrow or the day after. I will post resulta when I switch the display.
Just an update; It arrived later than I anticipated, but that was not the companies fault. Anyway, the display is top grade, top notch, whatever you want to call it. It arrived in excellent condition, it works just like an original one and looks the same. The coating is properly applied and it just looks so damn gorgeous. I think it's even better than what I originaly had, but that might be due to a defective screen altogether. In summary, it worked out great for me, and I switched the whole front part of the device. So yea, my Nexus 5x is awasome again, can't wait to try 7.1.1. I ordered it from fixez.com
Ok, very good, thanks for your feedback.
Can you confirm that this is the part? https://www.fixez.com/store/lg/lg-google-nexus-5x/lg-nexus-5x-display-assembly-with-frame
But... Do you live in the USA I suppose... I will look what are shipping prices and so on to Italy.
Thanks!

Yes, that is the part. I live in Croatia. The shipping was arround 30 USD for me, it cost me arround 70 USD and I bought the 16 piece precision tool pack for 9.99 USD also. If I had gone to a shop for repairs here in Croatia, it would cost me arround 140 USD, I checked, so this is a realyl cheap alternative. The parts are easy to replace. There are numerous youtube videos about it, just be gentle Good luck:laugh:
You convinced me, I just bought the part from fixez, I spent 70$ too!
Does it already contains adhesives for the camera, battery and so on? Or do I need to buy them, like the 3m red tape...?
Thanks!

This is my first post, so I can't post links, but search on DealExtreme and you will find cheap digitizers for HTC.
These are probably not genuine, but worth the gamble?
Are any of these models compatible with the Aria?

Can get them on eBay though for ~$50.
wholesalegadgetparts.com has them for a little under $50.00. OEM markings, it fits, it works, fast shipping. Mine arrived in 2 days regular post (free). Follow guide on repairsuniverse.com. Be careful with the sticky stuff that holds the screen to the frame or you will have to replace it too.
Hello all.
It is compatibile digitizer and lcd between aria and gratia?
I see on Ebay that touch screen for aria is cheaper than for gratia.
Yeah it's the same.
Digitizer
Did you get the screen yet? My wife shattered her screen 3 days after the release of the Intruder (Aria) I found a new one online for $45 with tax and shipping. had to play with the stickers a little to stop light from shinning out of the sides but it was real easy replacement .....Ill look through my records if you still need it.
does the digitizer works like the original one? no problems at all?
I'm wondering if you can get an original one, beside buying a phone for parts.
Anyone know where I can buy replacement parts for the Atrix 4G?

Nice, I think I'm going to hold out a week or two to see what happens but if not ill jump on it. If anyone else is looking for one of these let me know and I can order it and I would be down to split them up at cost and ship em if you paypal me. I'm paypal verified and have a 100+ ebay rep
wait, r u on at&t? if u r, why buy a used/damaged atrix for $315, which is 115 bucks more than a brand new one on contract? n on top of that, u still have to buy the replacement screen? just doesn't make sense right?

I actually used my upgrade to get an Atrix. hadn't upgraded in years because I had a rogers HTC Dream and then I bought the Nexus One straight up. I used to run a little iphone repair business and figure I'll have no problem fixing the Atrix. This is just to make a quick $150-$200
Interested in split-order of Atrix replacement screens
I shattered my screen yesterday. So far local stores have been no help.
I am going to one last store today to see if they can get me a deal on a replacement phone -or at least repairs- . If that doesn't work out, I'll be interested in going in 1/3 on a replacement screen order.

Booooo! I, a poor student, now living abroad and with no contract options, almost bought that same ebay phone and was even talking to the seller when it disappeared. Back when globalparts sold the screen for $50 (but still, minimum order of 3.) But, iFixIt makes it look easy and you should have no trouble finding people to split the screens with (if I lived in the US still, this'd be my strategy.)

Just because its gorilla glass doesnt make it indestructable - you can still scratch and scuff the screen...
You can order the glass on Ebay now. I would get the digitizer also because sometimes its glued in the glass. And dosent come off easily. Would rather just tear it apart once....

when they took apart the atrix they found that the screen was completely separate.
I've ordered replacement parts from www.ccn.cn before and while they aren't always OEM parts, they fit and work regardless. They don't have much of anything for the MB860 at this time though, other than the back cover.
I bought one from ebay a few weeks back but have been busy and then realized i didn't have a torx t5. Ordered a small screwdriver kit for $4 with free prime shipping on amazon.
Just did the replacement. I used adhesive pieces cut from ones for iPhones to seal it on. The teardown was a little bit more difficult than I expected. It will be much easier the 2nd time around but the ifixit really doesn't give any of the details. I noticed I left a small smudge behind the glass/digitizer so I may take it apart to wipe it. If I do I will make a teardown video. The biggest issue was that all of the ribbons are held down pretty firmly by strong adhesives. I was very impressed by the strength of the bezel. Everything worked fine first time I put it back together. I used to fix iPhone screens pretty regularly, I've probably done around 40+ of them, so that experience may have helped.
Hi
I'm about to try replace my screen on my OPO. There are just so many sellers, it's hard to choose one.
Either way I need the type A with the keypad light.
Many sellers does not specify wither which type or if it's with or without the keypad lights. And sometimes the picutures of the product does not match.
I'm very intrested of which seller from eBay/Alibaba etc you have bought from and are satiesfied with the product.
I want some recommendations so my buy is somewhat more % to work
Thanks.
I have seen the following suggested: vifocal This includes the screen, digitizer, and frame, so it's an easier job to fix than some other purchases. You will still need a sticker for holding down the battery.
There is also a suggestion at the top of the page that is just the screen and digitizer. It is on Alibaba.

Thanks for answer. The Vifocal one I have seen as well. But there is only 1 reference to it as I can find and the communication/support was not so good either. So it does not feel like a good/safe choice.
The alibaba has only 5 sellings and only 2 reviews and 1 one them says defective so that is not a good/safe choice either
Was hoping that there are confirmed good sellers with working product by XDA people
I have already stripped down my broken phone into pieces and only need a new screen to install.
Buy from vifocal, I bought mine from eBay and it has touchscreen issues. The top half of screen registers 2 touches for on and renders it useless so now I have to purchase another. Alibaba/vifocal I would recommend, no matter where you purchase it will be slow shipping from China just stay away from eBay. Also you can use a or b screen they just have to be threaded through different holes in the frame

Will the screen really stuck good with only 3M tape?
I have tired the screen and it seems to work and now to go ahead with the real install.
Will only tape work or need some glue of some kind? Thanks.
I replaced my screen with one from eBay. First lcd didn't work but the next did work ok.
I attached the new screen with double sided tape, which I used a lot for sure.
I got some time today to rebuild my borken OPO!
The screen works perfectly! Even the buttons lights up! Not as well as my new phone but still. Screen is really well responsive.

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.

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.

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
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD
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 ?

Hi everybody,
I broke the screen of my Pixel 2XL.
In truth only the digitizer is broken but replacing only the digitizer seems impossible without proper tools.
I was searching for a screen replacement but they are really expensive!
Any suggestion on where to get it? I've read that there are compatible ones...
Do they worth the expense?
Where can I find theme?
Thank you in advance for your reply.
I got my replacement from Fixez.
They weren't the cheapest option at $162 U.S., but it was an OEM display.

Wow! Anyway to just make the phone look like there is no damage and get a warranty exchange for it?
I have a cheaper alternative for broken screen. One day my phone flew out of my pocket at 100km/h on motorcycle, cause I like to save some bucks I found an original 2xl screen on aliexpress, there are some defected screens as they say, like couple pixels doesn't work or it has some imperfections. I took one for 70€ shipped, with 2 not working pixels that you almost can't see. They include tools to change it, but u need a seal. So if you don't mind imperfections it's really good way to save some money! I hope it helps someone.
