First of all I would like to thank all of you for doing such a great job on this forum, I have been ghostreading on the forum for some time now and have always found the answer for my questions. This is the first time I have posted on the forum.
To the problem:
The touchscreen on my Qtek1010 is broken and therefore the unit is almost useless.
I have been searching the forum and found that it is possible to buy a new touchscreen. My problem is that I’m a poor student so therefore i find that 75$ + another 25$ for the shipment to Denmark at http://www.pdasmart.com/pdaphone.htm is a bit expensive.
I have also noticed the site http://pdascreens.co.uk/ but it seems a bit suspicious (anyone tried it)
I'm basically looking for the cheapest way to replace the touchscreen.
Hope you guys can and will help.

Does anyone know where I can pick up a new screen. For the Kaiser (VarioIII)
there are multiple places just to a search in this same kaiser forum, there are some recent updates to some of the threads, (from what i have seen/used 2-3 reliable sources)
Hi,
my wife and I had the same problem with her Kaiser - I've ordered a screen (both LCD and digitiser) off ebay. It should come with tools to assist in the sawp out as well. About £55 all up. I'll let you know how it goes!
I think www.cnn.cn sells them.
I believe PPCtechs will replace the screen for you for like $150.
Following up on my earlier post, I've just finished replacing the cracked screen on my wife's Kaiser. Worked first time and we are both now back up and running with our Kaiser's (her's a bit worse for wear). The screen swap took about an hour and worked first time (and much easier than the replacement I did on my O2 XDA years ago) - immesurably helped by the PDF instructions posted on this site. Thanks greatly!
I bought my screen from Sandymobiles (on ebay) and it was about £55. It was speedily dispatched, well packaged and came with two of the three tools that I needed to due the full replacement. But there are other sellers out there. Just make sure you know if you need both the LCD and the digitiser. I just went for replacing both to simplify things.
How is it? Like new?
I am not really afraid of digging in and taking it apart if it isn't too difficult. I am just aggravated with myself that I broke it.
I managed to splash some water on my Kaiser a couple of weeks ago and that stopped the touchscreen from responding. I sent it away to have the digitizer replaced but that didn't solve it, so the problem is somewhere else. The repair shop suggested that the motherboard would need replacing to get the touchscreen to work again. Apart from that the phone is in excellent condition and working fine, but Opera is no fun without the touchscreen so I've decided to put it on eBay to raise some funds to go towards another one of HTC's fine devices:

I thought I'd mention it here since it might be very useful as a spare/test unit for a ROM chef or other developer who would probably use it remotely anyway. I put a very low start price on the listing so it might be a bargain.
(I hope it's okay to post this kind of thing. I couldn't find anything suggesting otherwise in the rules. I apologize profusely if it isn't welcome!)
hi i know that your answer will be a "hell, no!" but i will ask you, would you sell me the front cam of your varioIII? thank you so much
hell, no!
But seriously, I think the phone probably has more value in one piece so I'm not planning to break it up.
it's ok i just asked good luck.
Re
Why selling it at once? You can just replace the touch screen and digitizer for 40 dollars!!! Just because a shop guy said it cant be fixed it is for sale?
I put my tytn in the washingmachine, and everything works as well now, only the display is damaged. I will replace this myself. Will keep you informed!

Well, they did actually try replacing the digitizer and it didn't work, so it seems the problem is somewhere else.
I'd actually really like to buy this for my Mrs.

A bit late,but the how to may help you, i posted this on another forum
ive just done the same, ordered a screen from this ebay shop
http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/ECPhone__W0Q...p;submit=Search
total is £34.16 when you add in shipping insurance, they told me it would be sent out in 48 hours business post from Hong Kong and it comes with all the toolsto do the job (bloody handy for other stuff that needs to come apart too)
and then with this guide
http://bignfg.blu.livefilestore.com/y1pUz4...er.pdf?download
it seems all so simple, but i have taken alot of things apart before, hopefully my screen will turn up tomorrow, and i dont think the 3-5 hours to do the job is accurate, but we will see, looks like i'll have an extended luch break if it is
Hi there,
Well I have had my wizard for a while now and the screen has managed to aqiure some scratches over the years and I found out that on ebay you can get a new screen for like £8 with tools and instructions, so this got me thinking, as I really like this phone even though it is old and outdated it still manages to keep up in some areas and thanks to you guys it keeps getting new software and os's so I thought well instead of spending £400 on a new phone why not spend like £50 on a new screen and then possibly fix the biggest problem i have with this phone, the RAM.... its really not enough and i was wondering if it was possible to get a new upgraded RAM chip and just get someone experienced in soldering and stuff to take out the old one and put in a new one. Now I know this really sounds far fetched and even if it is possible it may end up way to expensive, and alot easier to get a new phone but if anyone has any ideas if it is possible id love to know.
PS sorry if this is a seriously dumb question but I like my massive outdated smart phone I just wish it had more ram.
Thanks
Well to all those interested, i have found out that it is possible to get it to 128 MB but it will cost around £70 and i can get a secondhand HTC TYTN II for £100 so I think ill go for that instead.
That's cool
Is it available freely or did you have to do a lot of digging?
And any ideas how to install the new memory?
Well from what i found out in another thread on this site is that a company called retronix will take your phone in and change the ram chips for you. Here is the thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359590
I have sent them an email asking about it but have not recieved a reply.
I hope this will be helpfull for you, I have decided against it as you can buy a second hand tytn II for almost the same price and also as I will start uni in september I will be getting a contract that comes with the Touch Pro 2 cant wait it looks like an awsome phone.
Hi Xperia SP users
I have done some disassembly and find out that my LCD screen is indeed broken. Since I am not a rich guy, I decided to replace the screen rather than buying a new device. Touch is fine, it is just the display module that fcked.
However I come up into another problem; all replacement parts are not genuine. Heck of course, I know this. But to actually "buy" one is not easy. The mere 15$ might be cheap for some of you. But for a school student like me, it can actually can impact my $$ life Especially currency conversion.
So what's the problem? Why do I need to ask?
I am searching for someone that has replaced his / her phone screen and that he / she is satisfied with the new screen. I would like to know where he / she bought that replacement part. in this online world.
It is just I am quite worried that I bought a faulty product. Ahem chinese products ahem. But I know some chinese product can indeed perform well, and thus, this thread.
So, do you have anything to recommend me? Whether it is a chinese product or branded, how do feel about your new screen? Would you drop me a link to buy it?
I bought mine on Amazon from Sony. As expected it worked fine.
