[Q] Need a new LCD screen

Any one know where in the UK I can get a replacement LCD screen on the cheap in the UK? I dropped my Defy when getting in the car and ran it over. DOH.... The outside of the phone doesnt have a single dent or scratch and the phone is still completely usable its just the LCD has cracked across the length of the screen.

Really? im the only person in the world to have a cracked lcd screen on the defy???? lol. has any one got a broken defy they wannaget rid of for partsmust have a working lcd of course lol

the cheapest way is to get one one ebay and replace it by yourself

I did try ebay there was only one american seller selling them and it was postage within usa only so it was no good as im in the uk.

that is a LCD Display Lens Panel or touch screen digitizer as it is also known, I dont need that as mine is still intact. What I need is the actual LCD panel/display. Thanks for trying tho.

yeap, wrong item
you can try order from here http://www.wirelesspartsinc.com/motorolamb525charmlcdscreen.aspx not cheap

nice find, thank you. but with shipping its gonna be over $100 dollars, i think i will just hold off till there are more available here in the uk so the price comes down a bit. hopefully lol.

so i contacted my local motorola repair center and they said a new screen will cost around £59 so got it booked in i thought it was quite a good price as to buy one of a internet shop if your lucky to find one selling the screens would work out closer to £100 with postage and then you gotta fit it yourelf.

galaxy nexus repair price

I am one of those people who have a crack on my nexus screen.
its not a major crack in the middle of my screen so I am not rushing to get it fixed, but when I contacted a lot of repair shops near me, the price to replace the LCD is seems to range in $300-400.
will this price ever go down? some guy told me it will only go up as time passes..
im not sure if he said that so I'll go fix my phone at his shop
or
if he was being honest...
so the question is
will the price of repair cost for this phone go down eventually? if so, will it ever be around $100-200?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

Gonna have to do it yourself for a fraction of the price. It is not worth it to pay $300 for a repair... that's well over 1/2 the price of what a used device goes for. Even like $200 is atrociously high.

The cheapest I have found the replacement screen is $269, so the quotes you are getting sound about right. You could try to buy the screen and do it yourself. If you want to try it, here is a link to the part on Ebay: http://tinyw.in/vXxI. Also, for a complete teardown tutorial go here: http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus-Teardown/7182/1. Even though that is for the GSM model, it should still help you out because there isn't much difference.
As far as him telling you that it will get more expensive, I don't know. It is possible because because of supply and demand. It's also possible it could get cheaper especially if third party Chinese vendors start making them. You can get a screen & digitizer for an iPhone 3GS for $8 from China. They are not the same quality you would get from OEM's, but they do work. I have bought and fixed many, many broken iPhones and used the aftermarket screens and sold them for profit. The problem is, the Galaxy Nexus is not near as popular as the iPhone, so it's hit or miss whether or not these thrid party vendors will make them. If it was a Galaxy S 2, you could probably find it.
Good luck!
PS. Get the insurance next time. You would have to pay $100 deductible, but you would get a refurbished or brand new phone and usually the next business day after filing the claim.

You should definitely give Samsung a call, you should see the answers I posted in my related thread: [Q] Galaxy Nexus (SCH-i515) Replacement Screen -- Answered and see if my notes there help you. I got my phone repaired for less than $165.00 which seems to be in your $100-$200 range.

Getting it repaired for $270 is INSANE people...you could get a new Galaxy Nexus for $349 from the Play Store right now.
I just cracked my screen (so dumb and I just knew it was cracked fro mthe way it hit the ground completely flat on the screen)...Samsung told me it will cost me $250 not including shipping...others have told me different prices from Samsung which is very disconcerting....I said screw it and ordered the entire LCD/Digitizer display from Ebay for $199 with expedited shipping which came out to $224....I'm pissed about about paying this price but I have a white Galaxy Nexus and want to keep a white one....so I just got fed up and ordered it...the process for doing it yourself doesn't seem too hard...and I already have a screw driver that fits the screws holding the phone together behind the battery door...hopefully all goes well tomorrow.

I actually just got off chat support with a Samsung rep, and they told me that it would be roughly $165 to send it in for replacement. Most everything else hovers around $150-$200, so I figure I'll just send it in to them.

Botched Attempt, WHAT TO look out for

Botched Attempt, WHAT TO look out for

I just bought a new OEM screen digitizer LCD for less than 85. shipped on eBay.

Yeah, I had a crack in the digitizer glass. I bought a used ebay screen for $50 and replaced it myself. Works like a charm.

Cheap Nexus 5 Screen Replacement

Hey the screen of my Nexus 5 just broke down the 2nd time a few weeks ago.
I have already replaced it once on my own last winter and i paid about 120€ for the whole replacement part (screen with frame and everything) but I don't want to spend so much money another time because I'd rather buy a new phone. Replacement screens on eBay start at about €105 + shipping ,but if anybody could tell me where I can get a replacement for a moderate price (about €70?) I would probably think about replacing the screen once again.
After some research on the internet i found some chinese shops on aliexpress.com who offer them for about €60 with free shipping (I'm living in Austria) but I'm not sure if these screens are OEM/good quality and I'm also not sure if there will be any customs duty if I order them directly from China to Austria.
For example this one looks serious to me: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/LCD-...exus-5-1pcs-lot-Free-shipping/1541156424.html (the part itself looks like the one I ordered the last one - some ohters on this shop are looking slightly different) but in the reviews some people say this one is not oem. Will I be able to use it normally with an european Nexus device?
This one for example says it is oem but doesn't have many reviews and is slightly more expensive: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/OEM-...-Touch-Digitizer-Screen-Frame/1584183589.html I think I'd rather pay some euros more and get an oem part but can I buy this part without issues (shipment, duty, etc.)?
Has anybody already made experience with one of those sellers and could recommend me one shop where I can get a good screen replacement (the whole thing) for a moderate price?

Have you tried out ordering there? Or did you go with a more expensive one?

Replacement screen parts

I recently picked up a oneplus one with a deadspot on the touchscreen for 130 dollars and am looking for a replacement screen. There are many ranging from 50- 100 on ebay, aliexpress, amazon, etc, and I am unsure of which seller I can trust; some lack the capacitive buttons, have touchscreen issues, and so on. Can anyone who has replaced their screen with good results provide a link from which they bought theirs. My budget is anything under 60 and ideally it should ship from the us. Thanks.

I just bought 2 screens. One was from China and showed up with a dead spot in the screen. The other was from seller tradestar55 for $70 and the screen is perfect also its a US seller. Highly recommend avoiding the China crap and spending $20 more for something in the US. Go with tradestar55.

i have quickly searched ebay, aliexpress (they did have them, but no currently not available) doh

so close to having my watch back off life support lol

Been searching again, there isn't even a third party version :/
Any advice would be great
Happy new year to you all

the userquick update i am still not having any luck, i have messaged a seller on aliexpress that used to sell them, will keep you all update.

Yea its very annoying. I want to replace the battery on mine, but even my buddy who is used to removing stuff stuck with adhesive says mine will crack under the pressure of removing it.
Found this
https://www.google.ie/url?sa=t&rct=...hFsAMyQTDVs0tQZuQ&sig2=F3qSETGQxKOqWTix_gOMJA
But its brings the cost for me (In Ireland) to over 30 dollars
still too pricey for a bit of plastic

Ye I am having no luck either :/ I did check your link it does seem to be working...
I have been looking for damaged/faulty motos on ebay to see if I can salvage a back off one :/
