Lord knows why, but i'm fed up with it - free to anyone who can use it for something, be it for parts or non specific cleverness, mail or pm me, and i'll post it to you so UK only)
PM sent.
I'm in need of some parts.
that was quick!
hopefully what goes around comes around - maybe there should be an area on the forum for people to give away stuff they don't want, for free or cost of postage only, as hopefully what goes around comes around.

where can i get a replacment screen i dropped mine and its now bust please help thx in advance
Ooops!
Hi, I did the same and the people at O2 replaced it for £70
Not too bad, and I got a new casing as well!
Adam
thanks will give them a try
No they don't!!! already checked with them and be sure to check out the other forums relating to this topic BEFORE you go further - check whether it is just the touchscreen or the whole screen that needs replacing saves you time and money as others have made this mistake!!! I think the £70 price is if you are a U.K O2 contrated owner, cause they told me it was double this price and I was just needing my touchscreen replaced as it was scratched up!!
Hi,
I have a new XDA which basically doesn't work because something in the circuitry is broken and it doesn't make any sound.However eveything else works(what I mean is the phone bit doesn't work,but the PDA side of it does).
What that means is that the screen and other physical external parts are in perfect working order.
So if you are looking for a screen or any other major part,I could be persuaded to part with it at a reasonable price.
DO let me know in this forum and we can arrange things from there.
screen
Hi,
My screen was broken also, did a huge search through the internet and came up with nothing. The only thing that could be replaced was the touch screen, not the lcd screen. I had to sent it back to o2. Cost: 284 Euro!!!!!
It's been 3 weeks now, and I'm still waiting for my phone :shock: .
Succes,
Stefan
The LCD screen and all the physical parts are perfectly ok on my XDA.So someone can make a tidy saving by taking the XDA off me in case their screen is broken.
Any takers please contact me at [email protected]
hm
and how much do you want to have for your broken xda?
I wouldn't like to drive this.Offer me a price and I will let you know if I do accept the price.
But no point asking me to part with it for €50 or something as ridiculous as that as I already have an offer for €75 and am waiting for something better.As I said all the parts are in perfect order and there are no scratches or anything like that.So you get a safety net of all replaceable parts.
I am open to offers on this one.
I was thinking about this and maybe half of what O2 charge to replace the screen is a fair price? On top of the screen,you will get the exterior casing,buttons,stylus the ROM,everything. So I think it is a fair price.Let me know if anyone's interested.
bbanduser
I would be interested in your xda
mail me on [email protected] if you like
Thanks

Hi Martin,
I have sent you a mail at the mail address you mentioned in your post.
My XDA is no longer available as it has been sold to Martin.
Thanks for the interest guys.
I have a broken XDA Orbit / Artemis gathering dust.
Any offer considered.
Here's the extent of the damage:
Screen broke / cracked as can happen. So I ordered a replacement screen from eBay. Screen arrived, and I tried to fit it myself. Worked for about 30 seconds and then stopped working. As I had already spent my evening trying to open the damn thing up to fit the screen I gave up there.
I have no idea if it will ever work again, but someone out there may wish to give it a go. It has not been water damaged or anything, so I would guess it all works except the screen - which, although I couldn't get it to work, may also work fine if you know what you're doing.
Either reply here or PM me.
Thanks
HPJ
how much you looking for?
20 quid to send it to me?
Hi Guys,
I've had quite a few PM's asking me how much I want for it....easy answer to that is as much as possible
Seriously though, I have no idea, so whatever you want to offer.
Therefore I'll send the phone to the highest bidder. I hope that seems fair to those interested.
Please PM with your offer or put it in this thread. 'Auction' closes midday Wednesday (23rd).
Thanks

Hi All
I'm about to sell my kaiser but my daughter dropped it outside recently and it damaged the casing, so does anyone know where to get a replacement outer case (& buttons) from?
I've seen kits on ebay for around £35 and although they have everything I need they include a keyboard which I don't!
Can anyone help??
Thanks in advance
Have a look at this link:
http://cnn.cn/shop/p4550-tytn-kaiser-c-277_447.html
I see the whole assembly on eBay for £35 including buttons & keyboard. if it has more parts than you need simply resell them on xda or feeBay & you'll recoup some of the initial costs too.
Thanks mister b but unfortunately only the keypad appears to be in stock so maybe I am looking at £35 on feebay!
Unless I can sell it as it is of course
I have a friend looking for a Kaiser.
Post or PM me photos showing current condition network lock status, price ect & I will pass it on to him.
yep ok will do, just so you know it is fully boxed with unused accessories that came in the box and is unlocked completely so it can be loaded with whatever rom you choose from here. At the moment it has a DUTTY rom on it, win 6.1 I think.
I'll take some photos as soon as I can!
Hi
Just sent you an email with piccys
I've just checked and the rom is exactly what it says on my sig. I thought I might have changed it since I put my sig up but I haven't!!
I broke my screen. I think it's both the LCD and the top screen. There's a spider web pattern all over the top part and the lcd is working in one corner but green and black apart from that. The phone turns on and seems to be working "underneath" the mess.
It was my fault. For years I've been leaving phones between the base of my bed and the frame at night. This morning the base moved away from the frame a touch and the Note slipped into to space and somehow got crushed. It was bizarre and I'm not 100% sure what happened.
So what are my options?
(1) cry and just accept that my Note is gone
(2) call samsung and see how much it will cost to replace the screen (do they do repairs?)
(3) Get a screen replacement kit from Ebay and try to do it myself (can't imagine I'd have 2-300 $ any time soon, nor the expertise to do it)
(4) sell it for parts and use the cash to by a ****ty old phone
There's no way that I'm going to be able to get it repaired for free is there?
I bought it from Ebay, no carrier here (Canada) has it yet.
Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.

I dont see any screen replacement kits available on ebay..n i guess first u must call samsung and ask the cost to fix...nd wait till u get that much money to get your note fixed..btw m really sorry to hear abt ur broken note
1. Wait a few months and you'll see a lot of this lcd assembly on ebay for much less.
2. Build a time machine, go back to the day you made that mistake and hit yourself on the head.

A damn proud Galaxy Note owner.
I think I would buy a replacement kit.
If you cannot repair it yourself, maybe someone
in your neighbourhood can help you out.
I dunno the prices for the note replacement kit.
But for most smartphones theyre are in between
$80 and $150

http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/522834126/LCD_Touch_Screen_Assembly_for_Samsung.html u could buy it from here for $202
Thanks so much guys for your advice and commiserations.
I'll call Samsung tomorrow and cry, maybe they'll take pity on me, but I doubt it
I'll then try to cobble together the price of the kit, maybe they'll come down in price while I'm saving.
Thanks again for the advice and commiserations. A screen protector or a case would probably have helped I think, after spending $700+ for a phone I should have taken more steps to protect it.
I'm in Canada and so couldn't get any help from Samsung Canada or Samsung US as it's not carried over here. I finally got some help from Samsung UK and they gave me the name of a company in Birmingham I can send it to for repair.
I'm pretty nervous though as it could cost an arm and a leg.
Should I send it in, buy a screen for $230 and try to install myself or just forget it, buy a $50 phone and try to move on with my life without the beloved note?
Wait for the note to come to your country or to us..den u can get it fixed..itz just around d corner..btw i guess d 1 to b launched in your country is gona b a different note ...so buy a screen from d site i mentioned earliar for $202..nd get ur note fixed by a friend or wait for some galaxY note teardown instructions on the internet
I'd definitely find out what the cost is going to be to replace the screen from the company in the UK. If it's not much over $230 then it might be worth it.
Thing is about these screen/digitizer assemblies is all the really fragile stuff is usually put together already. You don't need to do any soldering, stripping wires, etc., you just need to unplug some ribbon cables and plug in some ribbon cables, screw in/out a couple small screws, and use a prying tool to open the phone and place ribbon cables. Thankfully this stuff isn't rocket science or they'd have a lot of trouble getting them assembled in factories for pennies a day.
Unless you get a crappy replacement phone, you're looking to spend at least $200+ for an unlocked Android phone of any decency anyway. You might as well invest that money into repairing a top-of-the-line phone that will bring you a couple years more of use. Get two more years out of it and you're looking at $10/month.
Maybe e-mail the company thats selling them and ask if they come with directions. If you can't find directions, look at other similar phones (Sammy Galaxy S II, Galaxy Nexus, etc.), or maybe find a phone-repair place in your local area and provide the part yourself, they'll be able to figure it out from there.
Then get the god damn nicest protection case ever.

My streak occasionally does this - if I plug it into a PC that's booted into Windows, then it starts charging !
Once it's started charging, after a couple of minutes I can power on the Streak and then disconnect and move back to the mains charger and it carries on charging just fine...
Tried it.... no success, so I got myself a galaxy note instead.... still love the dell though and if someone can use it for an "organ transplant".I'll happy to pass it over.

...I also have this problem sometimes, but mostly when using a USB extension cable. To get round it I have to plug the phone cable directly into the mains charger and then once the phone powers onto the "Dell" logo I can swap it for the extension cable again. I'm guessing it is due to the phone not thinking it is getting the correct voltage or something like that. Might be a similar problem for yours misternagoya
....anyway we digress...
I have replaced my screen 3 times (got to love my kids!!) each time the screen cost around £25 (last time being just before Christmas). My daughter has once again customised my display permanently and I now can't find anything for less than £90.
One, kindly offered, spare is really good for the lucky soul who gets it but the bigger question is still.....
Does anyone know where you can get cheaper replacement screens for the Dell Streak 5" ?
....and does anyone know why the price has sky rocketed???
RESULT!!!
Found a dell streak screen for just under £30 at...
ecrater
(put the H T T P and WWW in front and CO. UK after as I can't put links on as I haven't done enough posts yet )
search for streak on their home page and trawl through. There are a few different screens but one is on for £29.36
Just ordered one I'll let you all know what it's like when it arrives ....if it arrives
wow great price. if it arrives let us know ! thanks =) but he dont ship to SLOVAKIA =(

I think the manufacturer has stopped producing them and now there is a limited quantity. That's my hunch though.
I too am desperately looking for one also.
frustrating screen shortage
I have replaced my screen twice, and am ready for a third, but these prices are killing me! I actually broke my streak about 2 weeks ago and have been hoping some more screens would come on the market. We're at the sad, sad point where replacement screens are going for more than new phones.
if anyone else has an extra old/broken streak that might have a functioning screen, please let me know!
Yeah,
Anyone willing to sell a spare working lcd cheaper than these ridiculously prices?
It'd be nice!
