Screen Busted. Need Help! - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

My screen busted today. The actual screen did not break but I guess the crystal or whatever shattered. The screen lights up but its not readable.
I found a US seller on ebay of replacement screens but they just told me that it does not include the digitizer which is what makes the touch feature of the screen work right?
Can you take the digitizer off the stock screen and apply it to another LCD?
Does anyone know of any place that sells the LCD and digitizer unit already together so that all I have to do is pop in the new screen?
I had purchased the item before I knew it didn't include the digitizer but I emailed them and asked them to refund and cancel the order because it didn't include the digitizer. In the off chance they refuse I'd like to know if there is any way to utilize the stock digitizer.
Please let me know of anyone that sells the LCD/Digitizer unit as one piece so all I have to do is pop it in the phone in case they do cancel the order so I can purchase another screen.

Screen Repair
I broke my Tilt screen, too. I sent it to Mobile Device Repair (http://www.mobile-device-repair.com/). I mailed from Central Texas on Monday morning, had the unit back by Saturday, and it cost under $100 for the parts and labor. Matt McCormick is the person I dealt with.

I'm Matt from Mobile Device Repair and wanted to do a quick updated on this post. I actually changed the name of my company recently to Jet City Devices so if you're reading this post and want to find Mobile Device Repair, you'll actually find us here:

HELP My TyTN II LCD Screen cracked

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.

Kaiser LCD screen cracked.

OKay so my screen cracked, don't know how it happened. I went through town and the people i got it from say that cracked screen like this wont be covered under warranty
Other places said 50-60£ for replacement. and another place said 100£ because touchscreen thing makes repair more expensive.
is there anyone here who knows a reputable and CHEAP place to do this for me in the UK.
any advice appreciated. i picked up a cheap 25£ phone to last me till i sort out the screen on my kaiser.
Thank you.
I got a Replacement LCD for my TILT for $69usd at WWW.HTCLCD.COM
you can pick up genuine ones pretty cheap on ebay, and they include the torx screwdrivers and instructions to fit it yourself.

Galaxy Note Screen Repair Service in USA

Hello,
I dropped my Note and the screen is cracked. So I would like to ask if you guys know a good professional service that would do it in the US?
Actually I tried buying a replacement screen with frame from eBay but the seller sent me a defective one (red bands all over the place). He is kind enough to send me a second one but that is also defective! I was really upset now so that I demand a refund from the seller, which he agrees.
So if you guys also know a good parts seller I'm open to that option as well. Ideally, I would like the digitizer with frame because I'm not really sure I'm up for peeling layers like this post here described.

Thanks a lot for your help

HTC UK Repair - Anyone had any experience?

I dropped my One on the pavement getting out of the car on saturday, which spidered the screen in a corner.
It's not insured, I;ve played the game and lost, so prepared to pay the repair price, but I've only found HTC recommended for the repair.
Not a massive issue, but has anyone sent one in for a new screen from the UK, and if so what price were you quoted? HTC said they receive the phone, then give me a quote. I either then pay up or pay £25 to get the device shipped back.
Looking at our contents insurance now to see if and how its covered before I push the button with HTC, but any input would be appreciated.
Once its fixed I'm going to get the most padded, thick case I can I think, took out the screen on my old Galaxy S2 twice, fixed it myself with an ebay screen the first time, then it cracked again so I just ebayed it broken.
Cheers

Replacement Touchscreen TF701T

My TF701T fell off my bed over the weekend and the screen cracked (even while in the PERFECTO case ). ASUS customer service wants to charge $200 for me to ship it to them and replace the screen. I'm trying to find somewhere online that sells the touchscreen replacement to do it myself, but can't seem to find it anywhere. Does anyone know a good source to find a replacement screen for the 701T?

Yikes, that's ridiculously expensive... I dropped mine last night and the screen cracked. The display is still alive, but it registers touches like crazy. Luckily I can still use it with my mouse to some degree...
Has anyone had luck with ordering parts directly from ASUS? There's no way i'd pay them that much for that job, and the going rate on ebay for replacement TFx00 screens (albeit every one BUT the 701, WTF!) is in the $20-$40 range. I've already got the tablet apart, and am working on separating the glass from the bezel with a hair dryer. Very easy disassembly.
I wanted to close the loop on this one since I initially asked the question. I ended up going with the tech support at ASUS, going through the RMA process, shipping my tablet to them, and having them replace the screen. In the end it was cheaper than the website above (they charged me $170), but it appears lke they sent me a new one in the end...because the invoice I got in the mail today said new, and it looks like it really is new (i.e., needing the firmware update again, not having a single thing that I had went it was sent, new registration number, etc).
So although it took them nearly a month, in the end I have my tablet back and it's smoother than ever.
I had one tf701t with a cracked digitizer and another where the LCD just failed (but the digitizer was fine). Since I was unlocked, I figured I wasn't going to get much help from Asus. I figured I'd swap the digitizer from one onto the other. I've done this on other tablets but I was unsuccessful on the tf701t. Getting the screen out was pretty easy. The hardware is close to a tf700, but one important difference is in terms of how the digitizer and LCD are attached to each other. On the tf700, there are screws to hold on the LCD. These don't exist on the tf701t and there are plastic tabs instead that don't lift up. It doesn't look like there was any intent to allow the digitizer and LCD to be separated again (unlike other tablets). I was unable to do so without damaging the LCD. I thought I did it, but when I turned it back on, the pressure required to slightly bend the LCD to separate it from the digitizer damaged it just a bit.
If anyone is able to make this repair successfully, I'd love to hear about it. Replacing the combined LCD and digitizer as a single combined unit, would actually be pretty easy given the assembly method (easier than previous Asus tablets). I think that is the planned repair process.

I successfully separated the LCD from the back of my broken digitizer without damaging it, and used the tablet for quite a while with the broken digitizer disconnected. A few weeks ago, digitizers started popping up on ebay from china, so I ordered one when they dropped from $150 down to $100. I saved all the sticky back foam for the LCD, and replaced all the sticky back tape for the bezel-glass attachment. The ribbon cable was mounted a bit closer to the edge on the new digitizer, so it wasn't clearing the bezel properly when folded over. So I had to bevel my bezel a bit, lol, and thus made room for it. So with great satisfaction of not breaking anything, I button the tablet back up and boot it...
WTF??? X Axis is inverted. I touch the left, it registers on the right. I draw a circle, it mirrors that circle. Damnit. I've heard of this being a problem with the TF201's, but this model too??? So now, I'm contacting the seller to see about an exchange or refund.
Parts Tablet the way to go?

Personally, I would do like I just did with my motherboard replacement on my laptop.
**Just buy a broken for parts/AS/IS 701 and just take what you need off it. Then you have a parts tablet. I saw a few go for less than 100$ a few weeks ago when I was looking for parts. I just ended up sending it to ASUS though. I'd rather have warranty work if it's still under warranty, than void my warranty prematurely.
That being said,by the end of the year, I'll probably invest in a parts tablet, just in case. I live a rough lifestyle, but I try to take the best care of my electronics. That being said, accidents happen.
Hello,
My lcd+digitizer screen have broken down and I need to replace them. Please, any help? On ebay, all I could find were screen digitizers.
Best regards!!
TF700 Screen Woes
Just some related info that may be useful to some of you:
My Asus TF700 tablet slipped from my grip whilst crossing the parking lot from my car to the local Starbucks. To be fair, I've dropped it a handful of times before with no serious damage (including the very first day I had it... the tablet wasn't securely locked into the docking keyboard and I wasn't yet familiar with how to make sure!) But this time it hit the asphalt hard, striking the pavement directly on the corner of the folded keyboard/tablet case. The screen still displays, but the gorilla glass has cracks all over the place!
I took it to a local computer repair shop and they quoted me a screen replacement price of $150 to $250, depending on which screen was required. Apparently they were finding multiple part numbers for the TF700 screen, with overlap between the TF701 and the TF201. They mentioned that some screens are held in place with screws and so can be removed from the back panel, while others require actually going in through the glass itself to separate the glass and screen from the back plate. After reading some of the info here on XDA-developers.com it sounds as though the TF701 has the "fused" screen and the TF700 has the screw-attached version. In any case, I deferred on repairing it for now. I may instead try to sell the docking keyboard with supplemental battery to recoup what I can.

I have the same story, and found some hope on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55290214&postcount=146
maybe when more people have the same problem (same problem with the tf201 is solved), the solution is on the way?
I too have the same story again! :crying:
