[Q] Screen Replacement - Sprint HTC One (M7)

All the "screen cracked" threads I've read on the HTC One, none of them have any information on where to get a new screen replacement. I cracked my screen pretty bad but I can live with it. I read the thread where it's not hard at all to open this device up. However when I looked for a replacement it only showed the digitizer.I read that the digitizer and LCD are infused. Even if you try to seperateit you would damage it.
Now is it worth it cost-wise to buy a replacement and do it yourself (if you know what you're doing). Or is it just better to take it through insurance?

Depending on who you have for insurance, sending it to HTC might be cheaper than your deductible. Granted, you would be without the phone for a while, but if you have an extra phone that might be manageable. Last I heard, replacement panels were 130-150ish online. As to where to find one, I have no idea. HTC was/is replacing them for 180. Just some food for thought.

[Q] Yep, I broke my screen! First one?

Hi there.
Brand new i9000.. first smartphone in my life.. and also the first one I broke in my life. Pretty ****ing annoying.
Everything still works, even typing, just the screen is smashed into a 1000 pieces. Dropped it out of my pocket on a concrete floor when I took my pants of. Lesson: Never take your pants off!
This is how it looks:
/edit: ****! I am not allowed to post photo's?
Found this (Dutch, but that's where I am from) webshop, selling a new screen:
/edit: ****, I am not allowed to post URL's!
It's called: "Samsung i9000 Galaxy S Display module compleet incl. touchscreen" Looks like this:
/edit: ****! I am not allowed to post photo's?
Is it the right screen? And if yes, can I install it myself? The thing is, just the outside is broken.. do I need this set? And where can I find a manual?
Thanks!

Any replica screens that do not come from samsung, will not be super AMOLED.. As this is one of the biggest things with the SGS I'd pay the extra and get it done at a reputed samsung repair centre!! Dunno where in holland you are but they have plenty of repair centres, had to visit one in Harleem myself the other day.... ANY Repairs carried out by you will void the warranty... Also is there no way you could just add accidental damage to your cover!!!... wait a couple of days then make a claim!!
I can't claim it anywhere.
So, I wanne put a Super AMOLED screen in myself. Anybody any idea where I can get a screen from? I can't post links here, pretty annoying.
Guy on Ebay sells them:
"yes, it is genuine LCD + touch screen with 4 inch Super AMOLED screen for samsung i9000"

Contact him ask him what the part number is!! call samsung and check it with them! It could be all good, most of the times is!... but there are alot of con-artists on ebay so for the matter of a phone call to check the authenticity.... I'd say it's worth it! also check with samsung if they sell the spares themselves or they will give you the name of an authorized stockist of their spares!! Worth checking out their prices!
Good luck!
Hi iam from india even my brand new i9000diplay was smashed i replcaed it from samsung sevice they charged me rs 8500 ie 180$

[Q] Cracked screen :(

Hello all.
I've been around the forums for awhile (just used the search functions for my previous issues) but seem to have no luck with this one. Well, anyway.. A few days ago I dropped my Vivid from about 2 feet and yeaaah it's absolutely shattered all the way. What are my options? I'm tech saavy so I think I could replace it; however, with the phone being so new I can't seem to find a disassemble tutorial for it. Ive found the screens on a website and on eBay but they seem to say HTC on the top instead of AT&T (because I would reeeeally like to return this and get the skyrocket) so... Does anyone know of a disassembly guide for it? Orrrr... Can I get HTC to repair it?
Also, I found someone local that said he would do it for $120.. But I'd have to pay him upfront since the screen is so pricey.. But that just seems very odd to me since he's working out of his house... Hmm

There is for the digitizer glass. dunno where to get a new LCD though.. Sorry dude.
Isn't that all I need though? The phone works fine.. The glass is just shattered
well there ya go.. if the LCD is not damaged that is all you need..
Okay, cool. Do you know of any online tutorial to install it? Im pretty sure I can do it but I don't want to totally screw it up lol
This might help you.. Remember Google is your best friend. http://www.firstpost.com/topic/organization/htc-corporation-htc-sensation-glass-digitizer-replacement-repair-hd-complete-video-5ImE5hUXK8s-37569-5.html
It's not the vivid but should provide some insight.
Yeah, I was googling and youtubing vids but I didn't know which other HTC would be similar design to the vivid, well, besides the raider.
You could get insurance from your phone from AT&T (as long as it's within 30 days of when you bought it). I decided to get insurance for my Vivid, and they didn't even ask to look at my phone. So add the insurance to your plan, then put in a claim a little bit later (prolly not immediately after).
I already tried that route. It's a $199 deductible on the vivid... Which is absolutely ridiculous.
Could pay the deductible but tell them you lost the phone. Yeah the IMEI will be blacklisted but you will have a test device for root and S-OFF. Also you can sell the removable parts from it too or keep them for spare.
This one fell about three feet onto the corner with the search button not even a week after receiving...

^EXACTLY what mine looks like what are you going to do about it
..I actually found a HTC raider tear down on YouTube; however, the little "void" circle by the battery is a screw so I reaaaally don't want to void my warranty. So, I'll probably just pay the $199
I called for replacement told em it was lost payed 200 wanting to find a Dec. That would be interested hacking that doesn't have the vivid yet but not sure how to go about it..

I just cracked mine also. Obviously no gorilla glass!! I have insurance and called to get it replaced, the deductible was $199 which is higher than you can buy the phone for. I called back into 611 and raised Hel_ with the AT&T Rep because the insurance company is apparently a third party. Dropped the insurance, it is not worth it and she will send me a new phone for $50 after I stated I would go to Verizon for an Apple! Now I can get the glass replaced and Gazelle will give me $300 for the repaired phone!
Ha! my vivid got ran over by a Thunderbird on Christmas eve...and lived to tell the tail! Lol I was super surprised to see only one lil nick from a rock that made it through the zagg screen gaurd..and the screen now has a unique blue "ghost cloud" in the top left corner of the screen the screen also has a few tiny chips in the bottom left corner and along the sides but u can't see them under the case I have which also saved the phone from being crushed! O and it was laying screen up if that matters at all.

My 2 Cents
IMHO this may be one instance where thr HTC phones being built with more solid materials actually works against us, the phone being much heavier hits with greater force and possibly is more prone to damage.. I may be wrong but it's my opionion (I always get a decent case to provide at least basic impact protection) I like the Platinum cases sold at BestBuy (good belt clip & protection once you learn the trick of unlatching the case parts)
Best of Luck, sorry this really does not help you after the fact.
Cheers

This is one of the sites that sells digitizers & the SLCD
http://www.repairsuniverse.com/htc-vivid-screen-replacements-repair-parts.html
Some other sites sell Digitizers and LCD's for the vivid, but to be quite honestly the process is very simple to fix. The only minus is that you'll spend anywhere between $100 to $120 to get it fixed out of pocket...or pay that $199 deductible and realize that carrier insurance is borked.

[Q] Has anyone disassembled their vivid?

If you take the back cover off, there's a void sticker on a round piece of plastic... Covering a screw. Is there anyway to reattach that? I want to replace my cracked screen but don't want to void my warranty

Use an exacto knife and a still hand. To be honest its just a sticker, would you pay more for a insured replacement or save a third of the cost by repairing the screen yourself.

i do, but there's a $199 deductible.. so, i'm debating on replacing the screen, report it lost then sell it on craigslist and pay the $200 or just be honest and tell them i want a replacement due to the cracked screen.

If you use your insurance do it the right way. If you falsify that you lost the phone to asurion they will blacklist your imei for the broken phone in question, if the craigslist buyer wants to activate it on att, they are not gonna be too happy
When you get a replacement phone from asurion, they direct you to a site to tie in your new sim card that they ship to you with the imei of the new phone ( this relinks your new phone to the insurance). Fail to do so they will hit you with a retail charge on your next bill.
If you have the courage to fix it yourself then by all means do, but if you're new to this, but considering the risks.

Rules on paper simply put there to scare people ....and what's the point anyway you kno the guy obviously know what's he's talkin about with the insurance and what he's going to do

Regardless, If he wants to take the chance at fixing it himself, he can do so. He would be saving at least half of the cost or more asurion would charge as a premium ( $199)
FYI HTC VIVID Replacement Screen:
http://www.aliexpress.com/fm-store/...-Screen-Replacement-Parts-OEM-Repair-Fix.html
And thats $65 for just the replacement screen.
95% of the people registered on XDA could replace the Vivid screen with no issue and the right tools, and i am probably not exaggerating.
I dont know if you follow the news but Sen. Chuck Schumer ( NY-Democrat ) is very close to striking a change early 2012 as to how Asurion handles claims universally in the US for all insured phones. He supports SOPA unfortunately.
Make sure when you order the replacement screen ,it comes with the double sided tape attached

8125,
That's the LCD, I just need the screen. I'll probably get it off eBay. Yeah, I really don't want to go the fraud route. It's just a ripoff that I have to pay $199 for a new one. But, then again... It's an insurance company. Its their job to rip you off.

[Q]Lcd Broken HELP!!

Today I had the worst accident My phone fell and a door closed on it. I want to know if the screen and digitizer on our phone is the same as those on I9000 (galaxy s) because they seem to be cheaper in Greece where I live. Any suggestions of cheap international online shops is deeply appreciated. Thank you all in advance.
Please, if you already make a [Q] in the title, post it in the Q&A Thread, this is not related to development!
new screen costs around 180$ right? (rediculous price tbh) if i remember correctly.
maybe sending it to samsung is even better
I wanted to do this and roght now I was going to edit my post to tell everyone that there is no Thread for Q&A only for I9001 so I did it in here

Brood I do not care for a genuine Samsung screen just one to work! In Greece it is about 100 Euros and 60-70 Euros on eBay and I do not think they are genuine in either case.

make sure is not the i9003's screen, because is a different type of screen (9000: amoled - 9003: super lcd)
Emmm... Screen or only glass and digitizer is broken? That's is very important. Becouse new glass and digitizer cost less than 60-70$ and it's easy accessible on ex. ebay.

Its impossible to replace the digitizer without damaging the amoled. They sell the item but its useless.

If you know what are you doing, then you can replace this
Both are broken screen and digitizer because when touching the screen the light do not light and when I make a call to my phone I can not answer it. So I am going for a screen and digitizer has anyone tested anything or has anything to propose. I am looking for the cheapest and most sure to work combination. Thank you all for your replies
OK. Last question I am thinking to buy this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Whi...437?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d066c387d
I have the black SGS+ so I thought to also change the color! Will it be suitable for my phone or I will have trouble in assembly because of the other parts included?
I9000 and I9001 are the same in dimension, the only thing that is different is the camera and cpu. I thought it was explained before in this post. Take the phone to a service with the newly bought lcd/digitizer and they will fix it.
Oh, and don't complain about prices, if you want your phone to be fixed and work as new, pay some cash. Otherwise try fixing it yourself

I have cracked my screen...internally

Does anyone know what I can do to fix it?...my screen is only showing colour lines with black lines in between on the top half of the screen only, thanks.
Edit: I am 99% pretty sure the LCD is cracked.
It'll cost you a fair amount of £ to fix that. You'll have to replace the display and the glass (since it's zero gap, and therefore they're in one piece).
See if there are any service centers near you and get a quote from them, but it'll be expensive. It'll almost be cheaper to just buy a new device (on contract, that is)

Happened to me, Samsung replaced it, they took FIVE MONTHS to do it but they did (After almost entering with a process against the company). They said it costs R$700 to fix it here, but the phone alone (new) on the stores is about R$850.
Well, five months of wait, i won't buy a Samsung phone again, and the screen they placed looks **** (It its REALLY over-saturated, and darker colours look so **** that you can't imagine.)
Have you enabled this?
I managed to get my phone fixed, it cost me £160...I have my old screen unit if anyone requires it?
