anybody help getting replacement screen or should i cut my loses and bin it
Hi this may help http://www.xdarepairs.co.uk
Personally the site i found that was best was
http://www.gpsmidlands.co.uk/ was only around £70 to get it replaced and sent back, also with a battery cover as mine was broke
took about 5 days (probably beacuse paid by cheque)
Check what is really cracked?
The LCD , or the touchscreen overlay (aka Touch Screen Digitizer)
The latter is rather cheap.
If you are one of those DIY repairman, try E-Bay for a low budget DIY fix.
Less the shipping cost, it is approximately 30 UK pound for the raw LCD screen. The digitizer is about quarter of the LCD price.
Go a ebay search for "dopod 696 screen"
(FYI: O2 XDA IIi is an OEM product of Dopod 696i.)

Help,
I've duffed up the LCD on my XDA. The poor thing looks like it is bleading to death.
Anyone know where I can get a replacement? :?
http://www.pdasmart.com/pdaphone.htm
Sheeesh $199 bucks!
That seems a pretty huge chunk of dosh. I think ebay for someones old XDA may be a slightly cheaper alternative.
Out of interest I have found a company called Proporta www.proporta.com that do screen repairs for £45.
I'll let this forum know what it is they do and if the price is right!
Thanks for your help!
bleading screen!
hi there.. i've finally found the right place for my problem.. well, yes my fone's screen is BLEEDING! it's tearing my heart! and again YES 200$ is alot of money.. so what've you found? is it cheaper anywhere else?
My solution
For the record, I have yet to find anyone in the UK who fixes, or replaces these screen. At the rate I am going I am going to start a business doing it myself! Proporta do the touch panel part not the LCD.
OK I'm not advocating this to everyone, but this solution worked for me.
I bought a used XDA of EBAY. Cost me £110, already cheaper than sending mine to the US for a new LCD. I have swapped the LCD out of the new one to my one. (my broken one had 64Mb, the ebay one only had 32Mb) So OK I now have a casing, battery, motherboard and a dead LCD as spares. I will either keep these spares, for my soon to be established XDA repair shop or I will sell them on.
It's not the bestsolution, granted, butit did get me back on the road for less than sending mine of to the US.
As for an XDA repair shop here in the UK, I'm thinking quite seriously about it, it wasn't a joke. I just need to nail down a decent supplier of LCD screens!!!
how can i replace it...nd..how much will it cost to repait. Please Help, i live in Brookyn NY, USA
The screen on my MDA cracked (which is the main reason I upgraded to a Kaiser) but I found a replacement screen on ebay for cheap, like $10 bucks shipped from Hong Kong with the tools required to dissasemble the phone.
Now, what's cracked though, the actual LCD or the Touchscreen? If the screen still displays fine underneath the crack, you need to search for a digitizer.
If the LCD is cracked underneath an otherwise undamaged screen and no longer displays an image correctly then you need to search for a replacement LCD.
And if the crack affects both you of course need both pieces.
I just looked and only saw one person offering a combo of LCD and Digitizer for over $100 bucks. I have a feeling the TyTN II/Kaiser probably uses the same digitizer as other HTC models, so you just have to find out which ones and then order those.
This is who I ordered from if you want to contact them and see if they have what you need.

thank you..for yer help..no..only the screen underneath is cracked cuz everything is fine except the image doesnnt show..at all....but some black type of thngz
wow another one, welcome to the club of mortified Kaiser owners that had to go through this. you should hit up njbridges (a member on this forum) he sells them just send him your e-mail addy. also try a search on this forum there should be a thread or two with this situation (me being included) your main two options are to ship it to htc for them to repair (which is costly) or do the repair yourself (depends on how comfortable u feel with such an operation) unless there is someone in brooklyn that might be able to help.
Who did u buy it from? egadgetdepot is in BK so u can google them up and ask them if they have anyone that sells the screen.
I have tattoo but my lcd is broken , so i wanna to buy it , price , some where i can find it or ???
i am looking also for a new screen; anyone?
there are both digitisers and LCDs in ebay ... but be careful when shopping there
also I've seen a few other websites offer LCDs or Digitizers or both but they were like 2-3 times the price,
what is the difference between a lcd and a digitizer?
i just wanna replace my screen because there a some scratches on it.
what is good price for it?
the digitizer is on top of the LCD display
when you touch your phone you touch the digitizer and it digitizes your finger's input and that's what you can scratch really.
since the LCD is below there are different problems with it - I think there can be burned pixels, etc. but there can't be any scratches.
3-4 months ago a pair of LCD+digitizer+screwdrivers was round $30-50 and I've just checked it - prices are the same right now
by checking for the digitizers right now it looks like they are going round $7-$11
I would personally buy from one of the $10 sellers with good feedback and lots of items sold similar to this one (first result in my ebay page though )

i buyed this one about 6 months it still work great
price is 44$ but im not sure was original or not
i can not trust any body
Hi,
is there any information available how to change the digitizer?
I just sent it to HTC care and they fixed it. Working as before.
Hello All. I am from India. Recently my mi3W fell and the top of the screen got a crack. After that top half of the touchscreen stopped working but bottom half was working fine. But yesterday,probably some dust particle went inside the crack and the whole touchscreen stopped responding. Now, the display is just fine and it's only the touch which is dead but I don't think there is a separate digitizer available for mi3.
So, I need suggestions whether I should buy original LCD from Xiaomi which would cost me almost half of the phone's price or can i buy one from ebay which would cost me around 2.2K.
Also,in case i end up buying one from ebay, will the color,sharpness and other display properties be of the degraded quality and noticeable to naked eye?
Also, if i buy it from ebay and give it to authorized xiaomi service centre will they agree to change the screen with the new one which I will give them and take only the repairing cost?
Also, whats the best and cheap option on ebay.in ?
Heyy dere.
Its better if u order from aliexpress bro.
Ebay i dnt think so d quality of the screen is gud.
U can even check out reviews of oder people in aliexpress. Try dat once
Hi,
Amarjot25 is right. Aliexpress gives a better option than eBay as there are some screens on eBay that are not good. I have broken my screen twice now. The one I am using currently is from eBay. I got it for 2k. It's not bad but looks delicate. There is no visual difference between the first one and this one. It's just how it feels and behaves when it gets heated.
Got my display from a seller named Mi_shop on eBay , got 1 year warranty with it . the first time the display developed some random lines (after a month)the seller replaced it free of cost , get the display only from that seller , he's the only one who gives 1yr warranty . the display is almost exactly the same. Other sellers on eBay seem sketchy.
I pick this one up for $100 from Best Buy when it was first released I think I was on a pre-order and I used it for about a month and I loved it for the price but I must have cracked the screen somewhere and I sent it in for warranty replacement because the phone will turn on ring and be usable except the screen will not turn on. I finally heard back from the warranty company and they told me that the screen is cracked and was not covered so I've been looking around for a place on screens all over the Internet for this phone and it's Chinese equivalent the Gionee elife s Plus and I can't find any. From what I've been able to ascertain there is a screen and digitizer combo that's pretty hard to separate or fix one or the other. Does anyone have a resource to find replacement parts for other possible other phones that use the same screen or digitizer that I can use in here?
This site has a screen : ww w bluphoneparts c om
Thanks for sharing that, I had found that site, but the price is a little high as the phone itself was $100 new, and they only have the black, not the gold color that came with my phone.
