I know there aren't any out yet, unless I've missed some, but as the husband of a woman who just had her screen shatter when the phone was dropped it sure would be handy to have on thread where people could post links to parts when they become available.
I think this would make a great sticky so people can start fixing their phones ASAP once parts are out.
Well there is a section for accessories but I don't know of that would help. I am sure though when replacement or after market back plates are available we will hear about it here..

Damn, for almsot the price of a new 8GB.. Might as well buy a new one and leave the busted one for parts...
Remeber that the backplate houses the nfc chip along with some of the antennas (not 100% sure on the antennas) so it would be a costly replacement compared to a standard back cover

If it is anything like the HTC One X and similar phones you usually heat the old LCD glass/display and it unsticks from the main chassis, you then stick the replacement screen back on.
Unless you know what you are doing when replacing the LCD and in some cases have specialist tools and lots of patience, you are probably better off buying a new phone (when you can get them!) and selling the broken one for spares on Ebay.
Back covers may appear. The HTC One X had replacement back covers available quite soon after launch and these contain the antennas, which are little more than sticky bits of foil, and the NFC antenna, for around £28.00 in the UK. The charging antenna is little different to the NFC antenna and they are both together as one part on the Nexus, so that shouldn't make too much difference, but of course there is the glass as well. But hopefully not too expensive given the likelihood of breakages.

Waiting and hoping for replacement backs or a method to replace the glass specifically. My rear glass cracked on the first drop and unfortunately has a crack on the camera lens.
You are definitely correct about the NFC antenna, looking at the iFixit teardown it's just basically some foil glued to plastic. This should not be a major deal breaker in terms of replacement costs.

The backs should go for about $30-$40 once prices stabilize, I've taken mine apart and it looks fairly cheap to replace. The Digitizer and Glass (along with the bezel) usually are best when purchased as a solid piece (usually titled "Display with frame") and costs $200+ now and will likely stay $150+ in a couple of years. If you crack your display, mail it LGE as they will fix it up for about $150ish I believe, which is the same price you would pay if you had insurance through Sprint for a cracked digitizer ($150 is the standard deductible for a ~$8 a month insurance plan for the SGS3).
has anyone replaced the screen yet? my phone has slid off surfaces loads and never smashed. however a small bit of sand in my pocket and the damn thing gets scratched. i've had touch screen phones for years and never used a screen protector and never had a single scratch, this is my first "gorilla glass" phone and it gets scratched. looking for how difficult it was to replace?
I wonder when replacement ear piece speakers will become available. Phone is working great except for the crackling ear piece. Hopefully it will be a cheap part and easy fix.

Hi all,
I recently fell whilst holding my brand new N6 and cracked the screen pretty bad. The digitiser and LCD appear to work OK, so I'm taking the plunge and will try and replace the glass myself.
I've replaced the display module (glass, LCD and digitiser) for a number of family/friend's phones and feel comfortable about working with the small electronics. I've been reading and watching countless tutorials on the removal of the glass from the rest of the display assembly but and yet to find any information specifically about doing this on the N6. Specifically, I'm worried about how the speakers will affect the glass removal process.
If anyone has any N6 specific info, it would be most appreciated. I'm waiting for the replacement glass to arrive, I'll update this thread with how i get on!

Did you try replacing just the glass or the whole display module? What went wrong? I'm also about to replace the display module on the N7 2012, the glass is cracked and half the digitiser doesn't work.

with the iphone it was both the LCD and Digitizer I was replacing and they came together as one................same with the N7, both together, trying to install/remove these separately is suicide unless you have the right tools etc........
Have you bought the LCD/Digitizer toggether inside the silver bezel, I didn't, and I should have.........
basically there was a small cable on the back of the LCD/Digitizer that was present on the old damaged module, but not on the new one I had bought, I tried removing form the old and into the new, plugged in the normal power and screen cables, but then nothing, didn't work, my frustration also resulted in a small crack to the new screen.............
it possible but you need to have patience and the tools, which it sound like you do.......but its much easier already inside the silver bezel...........
the screen was glued into the bezel and removing this was murder, managed it, but had to pick out all the smashed glass bit by bit........
don't let me put you off though, you sound more competent than me........

I haven't bought the replacement display module yet for the Nexus 7. Thanks for the info, think i'll try and get one with a bezel to be on the safe side.
its definitely the way to go as you will just be popping off the back cover, releasing the ribbon cables, removing some screws, peeling back some adhesive tape and that's you.........
and any dings to the bezel will dissapear too............
Removing the LCD ribbon cable on N6 is PITA I don't want to even think how to plug in the new one. The digitizer is easy since there is lock on it but the LCD just plugs in with lots of friction.
Any tips?

Unless you have the right equipment and lots of time buy the whole assembly.
You can watch videos on youtube how complicated is to separate the glass from LCD
£122 repair cost in UK.

I'm experiencing the same problem. I've replaced the digitizers/screens on all versions of the iPhone and also on the Samsung Galaxy S4. I successfully replaced only the glass on some Samsung devices too. I'm wondering if I'll be able to do this with the Nexus 6 if I just buy the $10 replacement glass.
Thanks. Hope to hear your results soon.
EDIT: I've scoured YouTube in search of videos showing how to replace the GLASS ONLY, but I can only find videos showing how to replace the entire digitizer. So I'm desperate for any information on this. Haha.

I was reading ifixit's how to guide. They state that the digitizer is fused to the glass. Possibly that's why everyone stops at this step.....

Can I ask where this is from? I've cracked the glass, screen works fine.
yes the glass repair is possible i am uploading photos of the process i did. i do work for a cell phone repair company and this has been a very common repair. Nexus 6 glass only repair with the use of OCA (optical clear adhesive) and bonded together with an ridge to ridge lamintator and and mini autoclave.
It turns out Motorola Official repair was £128 plus the postage to send them the phone in the first place.
I am unfortunately in the same boat. I sustained probably 15 scratches that my fingernail could get stuck on them all. My phone scraped along an artificial hardwood floor when a dog stepped on it facedown and slid. So I bought some cerium oxide in an attempt to sand down and buff away the scratches. I was not successful, and it looks like I added some more scratches. I'm going to put up with them until I get more, then replace the screen & digitizer probably while also adding a screen protector. I hate the feel of screen protectors though

Impressive. What's your process for separating the cracked glass from the digitizer?
Although I'm sure the OP was asking for a way that doesn't require thousands of dollars worth of specialized equipment.
Has the OP given up on this project? I cracked my glass the other day however the digitizer still works just fine. I wanted to know if there was a do it yourself way to change the crystal without having to purchase a digitizer/crystal combo?
Thanks
Hi everyone,
Hope my question makes sense - I dropped my phone last night and the screen cracked. Not the LCD, just the glass. But... The touch is perfect. There's just cracked glass.
I saw a listing in eBay that had just the "front glass" cover part for like $6. Naturally, if I can NOT pay $250+ for a fixed phone, that'd be great. So, does anyone know what exactly it is that I'd need to buy to fix this myself?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: This link has the "glass lens" I was talking about.
http://www.etradesupply.com/motorola-nexus-6-glass-lens-black.html
The glass and digitizer are almost always fused together. If you can get them seperated you'll likely never get the replacement glass attached in a way that will look normal. These things are typically replaced as a unit because of this.
They come glued together and actually removing the glass lens without damaging anything else is very VERY difficult. Best option is to buy a new LCD/digitiser in one and swap them out. I know its expensive but i can ensure you trying to change just the glass is a nightmare!
I've done a couple screens like this and they are a PITA!
If you heat them up enough you can separate the two but in some cases the heat needed damages the screen. It's one of those things that you can "try" it but go into it knowing that it most-likely won't work unless you have a ton of patients. The key is getting all of the glue that bonds the two parts off of the screen/digitizer so the new glass can lay flat and seal.
Interesting. Does the glass not need to be rebonded?
I need some help. I wan to buy a screen protector or a tempered glass cover for my Moto Z play. It already has a few small scratches over its screen and I would like to prevent more. So please give me links to some which buy online in India. I did found some but the reviews made me doubtful, particularly the fact that some part of screen is left uncovered. so please help me.

The gap is necessary.
I think all 3 Zs can use the same one, a theory of mine, not yet confirmed.
Look at the other forums.
I too am ready to buy.
as i compared tempered glasses on ebay for Z and Z Play, the difference is upper part - they both have flash and front camera but switched between models

Incipio and Verizon (in the US) do a bumper case you can use with Moto Mods.
I use tempered glass, just that the edges are beveled and it will show a slight 'edge'. Same for other glass protectors.

Would you mind linking the tempered glass screen protector please? Based off what I am reading in the other threads it looks like the screen protectors take away a lot of the screen responsiveness.

I picked up a pair of Omoton brand tempered glass for $8 on Amazon. They are "meh" at best. First one I missed a spot of dust mid screen, tried to pull to reapply, and cracked the corner. Not totally unusual. Second one went on clean, but had 3 big bubbles - worked their way out after 3 days. Because of the 2.5d taper of the device screen, there's an unattached "ring" around the edge of the screen (maybe 2-3 mm wide) where the protector doesn't fully attach. Screen responsiveness is mildly diminished - rarely causes any serious issue, but missed touches/swipes do happen.
Tempted to pull and run naked, but it's tolerable for now and I like the added protection, since I don't have insurance.

I just got my Sparin screen protector on my MZP, and I couldn't be more satisfied. It's a perfectly molded glass screen protector, and comes with a top notch installation kit and tools. Patience and applying in as dust free place as you can find are key.
I didn't even have bubbles to work out after applying, and the edges stared to stick after just a few times of pushing on them.

Thanks to those of you who suggested the sparin screen protectors.
Got mine a couple days ago, and installed today. Definitely a slightly smaller coverage area than the Omoton I replaced. The sparin does give me a halo of unattached edge still, but it's smaller than the omoton, and most importantly almost nonexistent on the bottom edge - so hopefully won't hook on my pocket and peel up like the omoton.
Nicely packaged, good install kit. Install went fine - 2 good sized bubbles toward one edge initially, but they both worked themselves out after a couple hours.
Screen sensitivity is a little better than with the omoton protector, but still slightly diminished from naked.
Overall, would buy again.

I have just receive the second one.
Good:
- no halo effect.
Bad:
-Does not fit properly, the black part at the bottom is to big and it covers the screen
- Camrea and flash holes doesnt fit either, I had to sacrifice a tiny part of the flash in order to have the camera visible (not a big deal, flash works with no problem and pictures look good)
Here is a picture using a game as reference, on the right part, you can se I have 1228 coins, but in fact I have 12280 so... well a part is lost.
As you can see I tried to place the glass as closest I could to the bottom and you can also see the camera and flash holes, that part its really making me nervous because I really need that to be centered (despite it works great). I have a problem with that, maybe I´m crazy :laugh:
Well.... for 3-4 euros I paid its not that bad but this glass its not for Z play. I dont know If someone tried on a normal Z.
oh! about the "feeling" its not as soft as naked or using the omoton but its OK (Im just an average user maybe someone find it worst than OK).
I wanted to try the sparin one but here on Spain I cant find it, only Omoton.
Sorry if i made any grammar mistake (I´m still learning! )
EDIT: Added game screenshot so you can see how much screen is lost, not much to be honest and now the navbar looks smaller! (you can see 100% the buttons and its fully operative, maybe this should go the "good" part )
Thats something I really miss from gravity box, making smaller the navbar, the centered clock and the traffic monitor. Im 100% stock right now.

Like like that screen protector was made for the Moto Z/force, which have different bezel sizes on top and bottom than the Moto Z Play.
sorry for late reply, at that time that was best protector because it covers most of the screen and its not that expensive... i said that is made for z forse but it can fit at z play (ofc they are not same phones and its not 100% perfect but still better option then most of protectors - which have whole mic/speaker side opened)
now for camera glass protector, first of all i want to say when you install it it stays flat, you will never even notice its there
but when i installed it, dust was bellow and i did not do it right on first try, so now when i take pictures with flash turned on they become white...
now i ordered 2 more, and im expecting them to come soon, so i will install it again and i will let you know
there is no point to send you pictures because you will never know its there on camera
UPDATE for screen protector: I oredered this one, seems like best option:

they say its compatible with most cases as long as the lip isnt too high
anyone have any experience with them or any tempered glass they'd recommend (especially one thats compatible with the ringke fusion)
Well, looks promissing!
Looks exactly like this one.

I'm convinced there is only 2 or 3 manufacturers and they just put the glass in different packaging.

I don't think we'll ever seen one for the Note 8.

Zaggs tempered glass revision 2 has been on the money. I've placed this thing on twice. Once when I got it and, the second time, I removed it from my old unit after a screen burn-in replacement, and place it onto my new unit. No air bubbles and the glass feels high quality, comparable to Whitestone sans the complex installation. It sits on the screen only slightly curving to the edge, and it does sit flush without interfering with the edge tab if I choose to use it. It is quite expensive ($50) but imho, it's quite worth it after successful installation. Highly recommend it!

While I agree with you that it goes on nicely you didn't mention that since it doesn't cover as much screen as other protectors and also has black side bars you get a weird effect where there's screen, black bar, rest of the screen which is quite annoying.

yes there are black borders around SP which the top and bottom part aligns with the phone borders, so no issues there. Depending on an individual's taste, the side borders may be of concern. However, I made no mention of any weird effects as a result from the blk borders and / or the edges not being fully covered because I haven't experienced any negative effects thru general use of the phone. I must also mention, that in some apps, i.e. flipboard the first letters of words that display close to the edge of the screen may be partially blocked by the SP borders. But for me that's not a problem, as i don't experience this issue with most of the apps I use on a daily basis.

No I agree with you, I just thought people should know in case they're looking to purchase it. Like you said, 50 dollars is a lot for a SP especially if you didn't know the bars did that and it bothered you. I'll be keeping mine on until something better comes along, if ever.

Agreed!
They at least have an all clear one here with no black bars if you go to the select page, still doesn't look like it goes all the way to the sides https://m.aliexpress.com/item/32852...00_0109&spm=a2g0n.search-amp.list.32852741886

i have tried these, good product in terms of clarity and touch sensitivity. the issue i had was that the vertical edges would easily crack with a bit of pressure as they dont seat on the screen as well as they should.
my current solution for using these is to remove the adhesive backing and reapply with loca adhesiveand cure with uv light.

Tested these a month ago. Cracked two working out bubbles. Glass quality is very bad. One cracked on the right side. The other on the bottom using a fingernail to work out a bubble. No chance that this is good 9h tempered glass. Opened a dispute and got both refunded. My opinion, not recommended.
Not recommended too, to narrow, covering edges with black bars completely.

Not recommended too, same bad glass like the one posted and cutting display on the bottom

ok so i purchased one and it arrived yesterday
while applying it i got some dust stuck under the protector, tried to take it out but it wouldnt move
applied it anyway and its pretty good except for the air bubbles near the curved sides of the screen (and the dust particles)
the protector is really fragile too, it chipped and cracked a corner while working out the bubbles - others have complained that theirs cracked for no reason
other than that it actually feels amazing and is compatible with the ringke fusion
ive contacted support, hopefully theyll send me out a new one
I wonder why they disabled comments in their video?
What's the best between this one and Dome Glas ?
I don't like the cut around speaker - face camera ...
A real full cover for front face is the most beautiful but may be not very good for quality of face camera ???
