My Redmi 1s fell face down on the floor from about 2-3 feet and unfortunately, the screen cracked. The touch and display are still fully working. Called Xiaomi India customer support and they said that they have no idea about how much it might cost to get the screen replaced.
Called the exclusive service center in Delhi, they've quoted a price of Rs. 4.2k. I can't afford that.
Update: I ordered a replacement screen from AliExpress and replaced it to get my phone working as good as new. I have shared my experience in this blog post of mine. Might help others who unfortunately enter the same situation.
Then I found this alibaba link on the miui forum: http://m.aliexpress.com/item/322154...dmi-1S-Touch-Panel-Replacement-with-Digitizer
Is it the same as the Redmi 1s touch panel available on ebay India?
Would this spare part be enough to resolve my issue? Will it be possible for me to replace it myself (there is a tutorial present on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKHPtfRaAa8) or to take this (alibaba) screen to a local shopand pay them Rs. 100-200 to get it replaced? Or if anyone knows any shop in Delhi which can replace the broken glass only (and not the whole display) with a new one?
4200 just for display?
U can get used redmi 1s at this price
I happened to as well. But not as bad as yours and everything's working fine. I tried calling them but they left me with the same answer.
just use tempered glass screen guard

Redmi 1s Touch and Display are attached, which means that you cannot separate them, If your Touch and Display is working but the glass is broken that simply means that your Touch is broken but it is working and + no damage on your display. But unfortunately Due to the attachment of Touch and Display, your Display is also waste. you cannot separate them. In this case Flipkart will not Replace the device and Service Center will not claim the warranty because of self damage. Service Center in Mumbai (Borivali) are charging Rs 3700/- and in market Display and Touch together are available at prize of Rs 2700/-, Actual cost of device is 6000/- and then spending so much for just repairing is Useless, I suggest you to sell your Redmi 1s motherboard this is only better solution for you right now.

Good to know it can be done and there are spare parts around.
Always thought it was fatal with these newer "design over everything" phones.

Thx for your reply. Can you say which lcd screen is made by LeTV or is there an LCD screen which is made by LeTV? Thx
I don't know. Perhaps someone else on the forum has that information. I think they sell original screens but it's best you contact the sellers directly before ordering.

Hi!
Any update since October? I`m facing the same issue. I have googled a bit and found some complaints related to LCDs from Aliexpress claiming that they are no so bright and blurry, sometimes with white spots.
I have also find only a glass replacement https://www.aliexpress.com/item/5-7...lgo_pvid=aec8908f-0e28-4202-a650-ab20f3981970
of a glass with digitizer: http://www.ebay.com/itm/for-LeEco-L...966586?hash=item58e23ffdba:g:z4wAAOSw-kdXxPkl
But... also a lot people claims that the LCD is almost inseparable from glass... Do anyone have an experience with only glass replacement?
I found a local service that claims to be able to do that.. but I do not know whether to trust them not destroy the LCD. The said, that they do not have an experience with Le Max 2 but with other phones.
Thanks

If you can get the fast delivery, then you can give it a go. Although it's a risky operation,it might be alright in the end. The service should have some experience if they say that for other brands/phones they have succeeded. It might be ok, but always keep in mind that something might go wrong. And it's not worth waiting 2 months for the glass and another 2 for the display.
Edit: you can google the process and you will see how it's done for other phones. They need to have special devices.

Thanks for such a fast reply. I already did https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRqSyZk1SOU It seems to be very tricky. I have relatively fast delivery about 2-3 weeks so I`ll give it a try with only a glass an digitizer http://www.ebay.com/itm/for-LeEco-L...966586?hash=item58e23ffdba:g:z4wAAOSw-kdXxPkl.
I`ll write a review after the whole process is done for future reference
Very difficult. They make it look easy on youtube. I attempted a glass only repair on a nexus 6. You have to have correct amount of heat, and the LCD is very fragile. Too much heat will damage the display, but you need enough heat to soften the loca glue to be able to separate the glass from the lcd.. I even had a scientific dry bath at my disposal to get the right temp.. Not worth a home repair attempt IMO.
Cost of the le max 2 is just the reason I bought this phone (vs a $600+ device) and put on tempered glass from Ali express for less than $2. Will you consider replacing your phone for $200?
My wife broke her tempered glass protector twice on the max 2. Easy fix, just replaced the tempered glass cover. I'm just saying I learned the hard way, on a more expensive Nexus 6. I wasn't aware of tempered glass protectors then. Even after destroying my lcd (by trying a glass-only repair) and ending up buying the lcd+glass assembly, I still didn't get the phone's frame tight with the display assembly to make it acceptable.
I tried to repair lcd once for another phone. It took me 1h just to disassemble the phone, and half an hour more to try to carefully separate lcd from digitizer. I failed and then there was no point spending another hour puting the phone back together and had to throw all those tiny parts to the garbage. Think about this before you try.
Home repairs of such kind are a no go. This is why I encourage him to go to the repair shop where they do that kind of repairs to the screen. They do have a special heated plate with temperature adjustment, a vacuum device that eliminates any bubbles between the lcd and glass, etc. Also do note that not all the repair shops are doing this. Most of them are collecting phones for the specialized shops and charge an extra fee.
In conclusion, this kind of repair is not for everybody, and it would be best done in a specialized repair shop. For reference, check the following video:
I know it's written in romanian and for an Allview, but I guess that most of the things are understandable to get the idea of how complicated the whole process is for any home attempt.
So, after a month in repair center I have my phone back. The screen is an original one with digitizer changed. Between digitizer and screen there are some bubbles, buttons are switched, like back is on a left instead of right and the bugged issue... They are very undeterministic and do not always work and sometimes they work without even touching so... Apps are switching and so on... I needed to disable them and use gestures instead.
The repair was about 40USD and digitizer 15 USD... It is hard to say whether it was worth it or exchange the complete screen.

I'm the owner of the repair shop. I can take care of this phone, but I'm living on the other end of the world. Is there any career that can deliver something to you from Europe? I would like to make a video tutorial how to repair this phone, but mine one is working so there is no sense in repairing working phone...

I can personally recommend this vendor. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/For...32820735893.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.xEXMor
Replacing the screen + digitiser on this model is pretty easy provided you have access to a hot air gun. Took me about 15 minutes and I'm in NO WAY a pro. For the price of a new screen I definitely wouldn't attempt a digitizer-only repair.

And I can say, It's same as the original one in every detail(Even production date so close). Replacement is very easy with tool that came with screen.
BTW, You have to buy glue(B6000,E7000,T8000 or whatver) for fix it in place.
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.
=====
Contacts -
Servify - 1800 121 4984
OnePlus india - 1800 102 8411
(Both Numbers are Toll free)
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.
Hey guys my screen is broken, but the touch screen is not, but some guys told me to buy the touch screen too. If someone here got broke his mi max and he replace the screen please I would like to know which screen he bought... I heard a lot of things about the colours. That the market screens are not original and the colours are very weak. So PLEASE.. I need you IMMEDIATELY
In generally...
Firs of all check with Aida64 which panel is used as their is more than one used in Mi Max. Usually it is Tianma R63350 & all do Tianma have a very good distribution network across the EU you won't find any references for this particular display. Second part should be to check if it's just touch panel/protective glass broken or you need a complete set (touch, glass, LCD).
Digitizer/glass will cost you 8.30$
https://www.parts4repair.com/touch-screen-digitizer-for-xiaomi-mi-max-white/
Complete pack with LCD/Digitizer and glass will cost you 35~36$ (tip don't pay more for it).
https://www.parts4repair.com/complete-screen-assembly-for-xiaomi-mi-max-white/
Warning; before purchasing the set be certain to see & confirm (from seller side) how its a same LCD display!
For additional info, finding possible better deal, replacement guides and cetera just search in browser for "xiaomi mi max display replacement".
My personal advice is that when you purchase the part's gave them for replacing to skilled professional in mobile services repair shop close to you & naturally try to bargain about the price.
Best regards.
I just bought whatever was cheapest on eBay. I haven't noticed any issues with the screen but the three buttons below the screen are no longer evenly lit, it used to bother me but now I don't even notice.
I have never replaced the touchscreen and screen separately, but when trying to replace my screen I definitely broke both so I would recommend buying both parts. Try to get the glue for the screen too! I had to use some super glue so I am pretty sure I can never replace it again.

Dude this is a OEM screen, I am very sure that the colours won't be the same as the original's.. I bought from dragon-tt.Com about 77 euros almost... Screen and touch, and frame-back panel
My phone whyred has always been in a case/screen protector since new
A couple of days ago my 4 yr old threw my phone violently and has smashed the screen :crying:
I can see on Aliexpress there are replacement screens for sale: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/For...09-47d6-b983-9f29fe68067d&transAbTest=ae803_4
I am based in the UK and this phone is not as popular as in India etc and there are not many places to get screen replaced
I have watched a few videos online, can this be done without all of the fancy machines?
For example do you really need a press? could you not just stick a heavyish book on the phone or is it just not possible
Clutching at straws I know
No, it doesn't work like that... if u want to replace just the glass.. you must have a UV lank to dry the glue..
I think he has to change the complete screen .
Did you look to the tuto on youtube ?
Just buy a new display and replace it. It is much easier but it costs a bit more. Make sure it comes with the frame as well.

I replaced the display on my Redmi Note 3 pro and it was never the same again
The replacement displays are not a patch on the original
I may have to go down that road, is there no one who has attempted to replace the glass themselves?

It is very hard to do a glass-only repair. You have a 60-70% chance to break the display during the process
Broke my display, digitalizer and screen still intact only glass shattered.
As I live in Brasil, there is no trustworthy shop to replace screen.
Searching at aliexpress I saw lots of people complaining that screens are subpar to original.
Can someone recomment a place where I can buy an original replacement, or at least a good one?
My phone screen is "tianma td4310".
