While I had my Touch Pro 2 in my right pocket, I entered my car and the phones screen got a crack because of my stupid steering-wheel.
It's just a crack on the glass not the display itself, so the touchscreen and the display work flawlessly but the crack is pretty long (3-4cm).
Is there a way to change that upper part of the phone and how much does it cost?

Thanks but it seems as if his screen totally broke. On my phone it's "just" the glass that has a crack. Like I said, it still works like a charm (besides windows mobile which is a pain in the butt )

ha ha, idiotic steering wheel, not getting out the way of your phone! (Sorry - I'm allowed to have a bit of fun with your misfortune as a drunk guy urinated all over my 1 week old Pro2... grrr!)
Anyway, on a more helpful note, I think your best option is to send it back to HTC for repair. They'll charge for it, but even if you could do it yourself, you'd void the warranty. Hopefully it won't be too expensive, but it's worth contacting them to see.
Let us know how you get on.
Thanks but I'm very busy at the moment and cant afford to wait some weeks for my phone to return
everybody is saying "glass", now i feel convinced that there's something missing from my phone. my touchscreen just feels like a membrane. only touchscreen i've used with glass is the iphone. please somebody tell me that there's not a problem with my TP2??
the softer layer is the resistive touch screen part, that pushes against the glass which holds back the LCD
so
Finger
(screen cover)
resistive touch screen plastic layer
glass layer

Hi,
I am very sorry for your phone. Trust me I know how you feel You are the third person with me who has a serious problem with the screen.
The problem is the screen is a compact piece like a digital, square, rectangle box which consists of one part only. It has no seperate or tearable upper part on it, I know because I have ordered one from a third party.
Therefor the only repair solution is to change whole screen unfortunately. So you should return it to service.
Regards

How much did you pay in total and did you repair it yourself?
And I think that I just cracked the screen cover and nothing of the deeper ones.
I am delivering it to back to customer service. I bought the part but I could not change it; it was so hard to open that har and I did not want to void warranty.
So either use the phone with the screen scratched or change the lcd completely.
Regards.
So how much did you pay? Did you send your phone back to the uk or did you let it repair in ankara? And is there a good shop in ankara to change the language from a german touch diamond 2 to turkish (for usage with AVEA)?
And I just realized that I didn't crack the topmost surface but the deeper laying glass. Hmmmmm still working :/ I'm going to visit ankara this year and if it is cheaper than here, I might consider letting it repair over there.
I have sent it to UK via a friend. The repair shop in Ankara did not want to deal with since it was brand new under guarantee and they didn't know the device well. So I did not take the risk, chose the hard way, I think this seems to be the corect way.
I don't know yet the repair price though.
Regards.
Cracked mine too sent away under insurance and they simply sent me a brand new phone.
Hi there im a new xperia arc user, well i droped my phone and the glass cracked(very easy). Then i sent it to sony ericson service and they told me that the repair cost is 147 euro . Is that normal price for just a glass? does anybody know?

The glass probly not that much, but the labor I think that is more than anything
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App
Cost i have no idea..
But with touch screen glass is not just glass..
It could be The Capacitivie touch screeen or the LCD or both..
Just guessing.. No idea what they cost.. You should find out if someone else had an equivalent repiar job done and price they paid..
Yeah i did the same thing, i was told £180 pound.
The screen is fine its the digitizer that is cracked like yours, i picked one up on ebay for £24.
Arrived fine, was OEM. just need to fit it myself, or find someone to fit it for me.
Their is a actual manual from SonyEricsson in .pdf format that explains how to take the screen out.
If you want it, ill try to find it on my laptop
EDIT: Its here anyway's

Hmm ty guys for your help, as i see im gonna pay that 147 euro as i dont think i could manage to put that glass myself..stupid service
you cant get a standalone digitizer for arc. It comes as a pair with digitizer and lcd. I tried changing just digitizer and screen stopped working. You can get it on ebay for about £50
If i understood corectly u bought a digiter and u tried to put it on your own, but screen didnt worked.. would it be waste of time if i tried? what do you think?

That is correct. The screen and the digitizer come as one assembly. When I tried to take the digitizer off on its own the lcd screen back panel ripped off and wouldnt work again.
I see..thank you for your information and your time, u was very helpful to decide what im gonna do.. im gonna give 147 to sony ericson service for not having troubles in my mind!! Anyway, sone ericson dissapointed me..i searched on youtube for instructions to replace the digitizer and lcd on phones (for example nokia) and i found it very easy job, easy enough to do it your self..
if you buy it from ebay its very easy to install it yourself but i will warn you staright away the quality of images will decrease. When I replaced mine i was very disappointed. Blue colours became greener, and lines appeared when tilting phone. Much better to let sony do it but it is very expensive. Nearly half the price of the phone.

The screen quality should only decrease if it's not original screen from sony.
There are screens on ebay that are original.
Beware of imitations.
I'm buying one today so hopefully get my arc back up and put this Vivaz back in the drawer lol
well, good luck with your arc!!
yh says genuine and original but they are not. Post back here see if you can see a difference. I noticed it instantly.

If it dont go well, i wont be on this forum for a while lol :S
I used the suction cup from my shower sponge lol. It was big enough to hold on and not too small to come off with force. But make sure you pull it from the buttons side not the top or you will rip the ribbon cable.
Thanks for the tips. Also does the screen come out with the digitizer?
I mean are they liked stuck together with glue or any thing?
Because i just need to replace the digitizer, but worry about the screen not staying in

Hello everyone.
The LCD of my S3 was broken so I ordered a replacement screen on eBay.
It arrived and I replaced it without incident. (It was an LCD + Frame + digitizer assembly)
But after a couple hours I noticed that the LCD is a couple of millimeters smaller on each side.
It is really not noticeable on first sight. The first days I dismissed it because it was something that didn't bug me too much.
But I noticed that I keep mistyping when I'm using the keyboard. Also I keep missing other onscreen buttons and it drives me insane!
I think this is because the digitizer is made for a larger LCD.
First I thought that it was a software problem, but you can see the borders even when the display is off.
I tried taking a picture and you can definitely see it on the left and the bottom border.
http://i.imgur.com/qvkZFFM.jpg
http://i.imgur.com/PgR6gDd.jpg (I turned the brightness to the max here so you could see the borders.)
Should I ask for an RMA? Or am I seeing ghosts here??
Love to hear your thoughts.
That s not an SAMSUNG OEM LCD Display.. Look at capacitive buttons color...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Free mobile app
If you look at the spacing the Samsung logo at both the top and bottom, there is an extra bit of space and as you rightly said, the bezels on the sides are a bit thicker. If it gives you peace of mind, then go for the RMA, but chances are you might end up getting the same thing. Maybe you could try a different seller? Where did you purchase it from?

Touch function Not working
Hi,
I am using Galaxy S3 Korean Version (SHV-E210L).
I have tried TraingleAway V2.35 to reset flash counter. But it did not reset flash counter, but damaged touch function. Now my phone display is working, but touch function is not working. I am using OTG cable with Mouse for urgent works.
I have two things which i need answer. Can some one help me.. ::crying:
1. Before i fix this, i need to reset flash counter anyway. But latest versions of TraingleAway are not working for this model and Previous versions from V2.35 is also give massge stating "Are you not using ICS". Phone has Android 4.3. So can some one give me a solution?
2. I want to fix touch problem and i search for digitizer in Ebay. But there are digitizers for GT-I9300, but not for SHV-E210L? Is digitizer for 9300is compatible for SHV-E210L? Further waht is screen lens means? Is it digitizer?
Thanks a lot

Hi, that's about the price I paid for supposedly genuine (but not) screens on ebay for my S3, my buttons are also not white as mentioned above.
The first screen I fitted went faulty after about an hour, took a while to get a refund, I had to pay postage back.
Second screen cracked after a very small drop, digitiser was OK, bought replacement screen but when changing it (with heat, etc) the digitiser separated from its backing rather than the screen.... maybe me being ham fisted but I think it was a different bonding used
Third screen/digitiser assembly now has a crack running right across it, and I've not ever dropped it! It still works so I'm leaving it alone and buying a new phone this time.
Also I find the paint comes off the frame very easily by taking it out of a hard case or screen mount and mine looks a mess after a couple of months, and the frame joint is obvious and creaks when pressed.
So these screen aren't very good - but I couldn't find a definitely genuine screen for a price that was worth bothering to fix the phone.... I would definitely get a tempered glass protector if I did fit another of these.....
So I just dropped my OP3 and now it has cracks all over the screen. Is it difficult to replace by myself and where can I get the new screen module? Asked few of the local phone stores but they don't have screens and couldn't tell when they would get them.

I asked Oneplus the same thing and they told me that they don't sell the screen, so if you find one it is not genuine.
My repair was €104 and took 20 days

Thnx for reply. The screens are out of stock. And also it says lcd-screen on their site. If I understood right the op3 has amoled screen, so it's not the same.

I think you have to send the phone to OnePlus for repair. My screen was malfunctioning and they replaced it here in Germany for 1 week (with the shipping time) Pretty fast.
Latest info is "send to vendor service center 14.11.2016". In my opinion this is taking way too long.
Just for update. Just picked up my phone today. Replace screen was 140€ and I also got some kind of plastic cover for the phone. Probably not gonna use it, because I like naked phones but anyway nice to get something extra.
What about this one?

It says unbranded and the price is approximately the same as the original one from OnePlus.
If I were you, I would go for the peace of getting it replaced by the manufacturer with OE part, despite the time taken.
Hi I'm wondering where I could source a replacement screen for this device as none of my local phone repair shops seem to be able to source one

Has anybody got a reliable source? There seems to be a global shortage of these bloody screens and besides the official Lenovo replacement costing 90% of the price of the phone, there are no other options available anywhere. Nothing on AliExpress, BangGood, Alibaba, eBay and anywhere else in my coutry.

+1. Cracked my screen last week, still fully functional but crack pattern is expanding and I don't trust it to be usable for a long time to come.
Been searching for replacement screen assembly but found nothing. Going to try contacting Lenovo technical support in my country now...
Lenovo tech support pointed me to a repair firm.
Repair firm asks to send the phone in, after which they provide a quote. If I don't agree to get it fixed, I have to pay a few tens for problem analysis. Like wtf, it's a cracked screen, you change it, it's a standard job with a standard cost that you can give me before I send it in!
Called another repair firm. They can't get the screen.
Apparently these screens are just not available.
They are on Aliexpress right HERE.
Expensive as hell though, considering you can get a new P2 for 180 euro's or a new screen for 160.

But I've just found this: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/For-...lgo_pvid=b8eb5b04-c098-4a2b-a5ea-f9e34e6da00f

Seems like nowhere.
The order I made on aliexpress was subsequently cancelled because of it being "out of stock".
Options at this point seem limited to:
1. get it fixed for stupid money (not even sure whether any fixing service can get their hands on it)
2. try to locate a damaged second-hand phone with working screen you can buy for less
3. if your LCD and touch input still work fine like mine, just put up with it and wait for some months until people start upgrading and the asking prices for second-hand models start to drop
4. meanwhile, search on aliexpress or ebay every single day and hope a screen gets available for an acceptable price
I dropped my phone yesterday and the screen shattered from end to the other but the phone is working fine. I have just ordered the replacement front glass off of ebay for £19.99 from HK but seems a bit too cheap to me but worth a gamble at that price. Only problem is I have no idea how to take the phone apart and separate the glass from the digitizer! Are there instructions about I could follow or is my best bet taking it to a mobile phone repair shop to get it done?
I can post the ebay number if anyone is interested.

You tube. Check the entire display removal tutorial. Then check glass replacement tutorial for galaxy s8.
After taking off display, you have to chip off the glass from display after heating it with a hot air gun. Then remove the residual UV glue from panel. Then after making sure panel is clean, apply new UV glue on center, then place glass on top and then press from center gently to spread the glue evenly and that's it.

Thank you but i'm never going to manage to do that myself, I don't own a hot air gun for a start. Looks like i've wasted £20 plus the postage as I doubt i'll find a mobile phone repair shop to do it for me, i'd happily pay someone to do it if I could find someone!
