[Q] Chipped Top/Bottom speaker grill replacement - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey all,
so it finally happened, my precious One fell of the side of a low cabinet today on tiled floor, there is a very slight dent in the bottom speaker grill cover and the paint has chipped
I want to know if anybody has successfully replaced this part?
I can see Etrade Supply stock the item I need, but I dont know this supplier, can anybody vouch for them? is it genuine HTC OEM parts?
http://www.etradesupply.com/oem-htc-one-top-cover-and-bottom-cover.html
any help would be appreciated.
Zak

ok so ive seen the drop test and it looks like the bottom cover should pop off easily because it is glued on, some heat and some force.
now would just like to know if anybody has bought anything from Etrade Supply before?

Did you manage to change the grill yet? Also from the pictures on the earpiece grill next to the sensors. Is that a screw hole or an alignment slot? I just chipped my corners and hoping they dont screw in from behind

Replacing Front Housing on i9020T

So i picked up a Nexus S i9020T for a price that was steal in any working condition. The screen on it is great, no scratches and I've read the thread regarding the battery door and I'm going to order the rear door from Samsung under a warranty replacement for $16.
That leaves me with the front housing ring around the screen... I see that iFixit's tear down shows them using a heat gun at that step. Is the display connected to the front housing ring with adhesive? For showing a picture of using a heat gun they were mum on exactly what it was needed to pull apart. If it is the ring connecting to the screen, will I lose all adhesive to the old ring by pulling these two apart?
Here's a link to the part below on Global Parts Direct. I'm probably going to replace the back plate with the camera lense too but that seemed self explanatory.
http://www.globaldirectparts.com/Samsung-Nexus-S-GT-I9020T-Front-Housing-p/smsng6098620.htm
I could avoid all of this via a case but I'm just not a case type of guy...
I can't really help with your question but where can you find the back piece with camera lense? I've scratched the ring around the camera lense and was trying to find a replacement.

Check the link to the website above, Global Direct parts has the midplate with and without the lense. I didn't look close enough to see if they had just the lense. They seem to be on some sort of holiday and aren't shipping right now but judging from the verbage on their website they'll be back up and running in a few weeks.
Keep the answers coming folks... Surely I'm not the only person that has "refurbed" a scratched front housing ring.
Well I ordered the back from Samsung as a "warranty" replacement. So does anyone know if theres another place other than Global Direct Parts that has the front ring? I don't see any parts available at CNN.CN or Truesupplier.com
And again if anyone knows what the glue situation is going to be like, I'd love to get some feedback on that.
Get ready for the pain of a lifetime. I replaced the front bezel on a galaxy s (they're glued the exact same way) and it is an absolutely terrible experience. I wish you the best of luck because I've seen many people crack the screen while doing so.

So how did those people reattach the screen to the bezel?
Yeah I also been wondering the same thing and from my reseach I think that its not a strong glue but rather a adhesive thats not very strong. A hair dryer on a low setting will do the samething in helping to separating the parts. You can always contact the people at ifixit to find out how it is really attach.

please, please with sugar on top
anyway - I wanna replace the bezel too...but havent found anything. let's keep eachother up to date here.
I work at a service and repair store and already tore mine open. The bezel around the screen is the scariest part. Its easy tho, just use a guitar pick and go all the way around the ring. It just snaps in. may help to take the back of the phone off while your doing it.

Its attached with a fairly mild adhesive, I got the screen/bezel apart on my i9023 without using any heat just leveraging it off a little at a time. If I was going to do it again I would use a little heat.
When I replaced my screen all the adhesive stuck to the screen not the bezel. I used a heat gun on low heat to transfer it over to the new screen. It worked but I couldnt get it all over. If you are going to heat it I would recommend it being fairly low, not hot enough to burn your hand.
I bought a replacement front bezel for an i9020T from global direct a few months ago hoping that it would fit my i9023. It doesn't. All yours if you pay postage, Im in Australia.

How to replace my HTC One front speaker cover?

Hi I hit my phone and it has damage on the white part of the phone and on the speakers cover on the front. I ordered the replacement for the cover, but I have no idea how can I replace it without damaging my phone. Please help if possible.
Thanks
Apparently the top speaker cover is screwed in. The bottom one can pop off, but I've read that it can be very difficult.
Probably unlikely you can remove the covers without damaging the phone.

I know that the bottom speaker grill is glued in and can be removed with caution, but I am not sure about the top one, to be honest.
Hello,
Looking at this video the top speaker grill also looks glued.

I think the speakers cover, white plastic and aluminum back body are all glued together in one piece so it would be very hard (if not impossible) to replace any of those separately.
I'm confused. From my understanding, the speakers are part of the unibody design. You cannot remove it unless you're removing the entire body. Look at the following image:

[Q] [Xperia T LT30p] Front panel lifted!

My Xperia T's front panel/screen/faceplate lifted from the bottom half. Phone still works fine, read all my touch controls. but it may proved problematic soon. I see black strips which assumingly is the adhesive strips/gasket around the phone.
I do not know how to disassemble the phone, nor do I want to if it's not necessary. I can find the video and watched some myself. But from what I see, disassembly does not include my problem, they showed how to remove screw to get to the screen/digitizer in one. but how to "glue" it back.
Now I'm seeing some LOCA adhesive glue on eBay, maybe I can just buy it, apply a very light layer on and around the edges/adhesive strips, and push it in and over UV light for a minute, maybe it'll stay glued. the LOCA adhesive liquid also doesn't seem to damage or lose touch effectiveness on other phones, like Apple or Samsung, but I don't know about Xperias.
What do you think? How can I fix my problem the easy way? or any way?

This happened to mine when I dropped it, kinda panicked and pushed it back in. That's my advice just apply a bit of pressure and it should click back in fine.
Just to make sure for me it was the part where the shiny plastic at the front meets the matte plastic back, is that where it lifted?

Are the parts I bought online fake?

I bought the LCD-midframe assembly and the back cover from a seemingly large supplier on eBay. After a lot of waiting my package finally arrived, only to find that the back cover has a smudged font, different construction and the logo covered with tape (which to me has been a telltale sign of a fake item if the photos don't show the OEM logo), the glass on both the screen and cover have a different 'give'. However now I'm not entirely sure it isn't fake, maybe there's some variation depending on manufacturing date or something else along those lines.
I hope someone with more experience can help me determine if I got genuine parts.
Thanks.
P.S. On the left of the attached photos is the part I want to replace from my phone, on the right the one I bought.
I've never seen this, I guess if the parts work, the only thing missing is the Sony logo.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The logo is there, behind some tape, but I've seen a lot of fake items that do that, usually for customs reasons. I don't know what to think though. The seller insists it's OEM. I did some research and found that some companies just don't supply repair parts, so companies like this one have to source the correct 'sub-parts' and assemble them or maybe even manufacture their own pieces if they are impossible to get, and if, for example, the LCD/Digitizer is original, they label the whole assembly as original.
Hi, hard to say from pictures. In my firm we are ordering both type of parts original and spare. Until this day I never saw original part with covered Sony logo. All parts with covered logo are spare but to
soothe You I can tell that spare parts for Sony are good quality (most of time) however if it's not original watch for back cover it's more fragile than original. Every time I'm disassembling Z3c I never wasting time to heat up but when spare back cover wont be heat up to peel it of it breaks just after You bend it.
Anyway most of my client don't see any difference between spare and original Sony parts so it's not so bad. Of course every time I'm giving them choice but most of the time people prefers cheaper one.

Yeah I suspected that. I ended up installing it as I needed my phone up and running and wasn't as sure that the part wasn't original after reading some articles on the Internet.
Let me tell you, it was a pain in the ass, it didn't come with the button gaskets, magnetic port, headphone jack or speakers. To make matters worse when I was trying to pry those parts from my original phone I broke both speakers, the flex to the light sensor and the magnetic port. Man that **** is welded tight!
Anyway, I think I now have another point to my favor; the glue of the screen is poor, so much that after installing the "rest“ of the phone it now has a slit on the side of the usb port where light escapes, not to mention that the screen itself bleeds from all the sides outward more than an extra in a Tarantino movie, you can even see a faint glow around the buttons!
I think I'll follow through the eBay case I opened. I hope I get (at least some of) my money back so I can buy a proper replacement.
What do you guys think?
Man, none of this would've happened if Sony would've repaired my phone... ****ing dumb ass policy of not repairing imported devices, even for a fee.
I love this device, but this kind of crap makes me want to go back to Samsung.
If it doesn't has parts You mentioned it's not original part. Original part MUST have both speakers, magnetic port, headphone port and light sensor and doesn't have both caps for sd and sim card and plastic cover around magnetic port.

I have been reading about replacement parts and z3c disassembling and putting it back together as I have a problem with screen peeling off on the left side. It did not raise to the point where light escapes, but it is noticeable upon pressing it. I think your parts are ok, but it's hard to tell it based on these pictures, however, on almost all replacement parts the glue for the screen is very weak, so the usual suggestion is to use stronger one, like buying double sided 3m tape and cutting it to the exact shape, or using "Sugru". I have read somewhere here on xda that people have successfully glued screen to the frame without any lifting and peeling off using aftermarket double sided tapes.
Good luck anyway!

I have a spare screen adhesive, I'll think about reapplying it once I have the rest of the parts (or a new screen assembly) in my hands. However they are proving quite hard to find (at least for a fair price), especially the magnetic port.
And sorry about the pictures, surely you guessed that they are taken with an older phone.
You can also buy ready glued tapes with all cutouts like this one http://magboss-economy.pl/pl/p/Tasma-montazowa-klej-Sony-Xperia-Z3-compact-przod/23942. Of course it's Polish store but I think You can find it also on eBay.

Yeah, I have a spare one just like that. Thanks.
i think a black backcover is no problem. but if you need a red/orange one,
the only one that has the same color is the original one (2nd picture, left one, check the camera cut out)
the fake orange backcover is more red.
Ok, so I got refunded by eBay, which fortunately makes the whole process easier. Now I'm looking for a respectable place to buy these parts. I looked into replacebase.co.uk and witrigs.com
ReplaceBase has stock, but the parts look exactly the same as the one I've got, and it doesn't mention that the parts are original.
Witrigs is out of stock, but the LCD assembly has the missing parts (speakers, light sensor, etc.) and it says it's OEM, however, their photos lack the Sony logo and it's making me nervous.
Is there any other place you guys would recommend? Have you bought from Witrigs?
P.S. I guess if reviving this thread doesn't get me enough responses I'll start a new one.
I have only 2 stores with 100% original parts but both are in Poland and it would be around 200$ for both parts with shipping so price would not satisfy You.

Yikes, that is certainly expensive. Although I may see it as a last resort.
125$ for front, 25$ back and almost 50$ for shipping. Maybe there is some cheaper forms of shipping but I would need to read about safety and customs charges.
---------- Post added at 08:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 AM ----------
I just looked at aBay to compare prices and mine is not so expensive cause it's hard to find original front only under 170$ even without shipping.

Under 100$ I can see only spare (spare LCD glued to original frame without speakers etc.) and used ones.

bottom speaker not working(NO SOUND)

hi everyone,
i'm trying to reassembly my Z3 compact but now the bottom speaker is not working even after i place back the middle frame to make contact. as you all knows, the bottom speaker only works when you put back the middle frame because the contact to mainboard are in there.
well, if you check the photos you'll see that one part of the middle frame is broken, even after i placed the middle frame back same as it was the bottom speaker still not working (no sound)
is that have to do with the broken part of the frame?
anyone knows how exactly the bottom speaker make contact to mainboard in order to work?
also what are the side pins surrounding the mainboard? (those pins make contact with the middle frame too)
PLEASE ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA LET ME KNOW
THANKS FOR ALL.
If I'm not wrong 2 pins right next to speaker are those You are looking for and silver part of frame is used to connect speaker to those pins. Rest silver lines are GPS or WiFi antenna.
All u need is some basic soldering skills and thin wires to connect the speaker directly from the board (don't have the images but my speaker is connected like this). It's very easy.And for the broken middle frame-u gonna need to glue it together and work on those gray antennas (use the wire again and solder it again)

yeah, i tested the wiring and the speaker worked. i can do soldering.. i've been doing that 10s of years ago!
well, for the antenna if i leave it like that u think i'll get a bad wifi signal?
i might order a new frame, i found it as OEM SONY for $11 + $3 shipping fees.
do you think when i buy the new frame the speaker will work again after i place that frame firmly ?
thx

I am not sure for either of those questions :/ U just might solder it and it's good to go (speaker) As for antenna, just reassemble it and see how's the signal. Maybe you don't need another frame at all
Sure, You can wire it but then You must insulate silver contacts on frame to avoid short circuit. Other way ~15$ for frame is not that much if You want to be done like it should.

The frame became a bit messed it up after i tried to remove the silver contacts of the speaker with the soldering gun, the plastic became a bit popped, and bumpy, and it's not as flat as it should be, so it might bother the back cover from being sealed firmly, and there would be pressure that could risk cracking it, so i'm deciding to get me a new replacement frame
thanks for your time and advises guys...
i really appreciate it! IT WAS SO HELPFUL
Saying insulate I meant seal it with some tape or scrape with some knife.

make sure the 2 pins on the mainboard aren't bent down, because this would prevent them (or one of them) to make contact with the silver part of the frame that make bottom speaker works!

Hi
while I was trying to make sure that the pins are not bent and the make contact with the metal in the plastic frame, I have managed to unstick one from the motherboard. so now definitely I know that I have one more problem. before I break anymore more, I will give up trying to fix it. Thank you for your answer!

while I was trying to make sure that the pins are not bent and the make contact with the metal in the plastic frame, I have managed to unstick one from the motherboard. so now definitely I know that I have one more problem. before I break anymore more, I will give up trying to fix it. Thank you for your answer!
