Screen replacement - Moto X Q&A

Are the screen replacements the same across all carrier models?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

All the Moto X have the same dimensions so. All the models have the same front panel whether it be the dev edition, sprint or us cellular. They are just either white or black so I wouldn't worry about it too much. If your going to replace the front panel however, you might be better off buying the one with the lcd and digitiser already attached. It might get a bit messy otherwise.

O wow I watched that video a few times and didn't notice the white Nexus, good find

It's either:
1) google employee exclusive
2) a really good optical illusion
3) reflection from the light box
This is already being discussed in another thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1962811
I'm pretty certain if it was white the face(? lol) would be white too, it's probably just a reflection. Although in my local Phone Shop they have a Nexus 4 wall and it advertises black and white.
I only like white versions if both the front and back are white. Hate the zebra look

Correct me if im wrong but the U.S (Blk) version of the Gnex was released in Dec 2011 and the (wht) version was released 2mon later Feb 2012 over seas ?? Thing is i bought my white GNexus from NEGRIEL ELECTRONICS for $600.00+ so even if they release a white one its going to cost almost double! so now theres 2 things u can do.. buy the black version and when/if the white comes out buy the 'back glass plate' separate and switch it oput buy unscrewing the screws on the bottom of the phone.. or just wait for the white version.
I believe theyll make a white version (see attached pix)

White version could be awesome
But its only the light reflecting....
Looks white to me (if you look near the top of the device in the still shot) - probably an international version like the Galaxy Nexus
I am not paying this price, but there is a white option.

I am wondering if £220 is the price that Google sell it to the CPW for... that price showed up in their system a few days ago (before the launch).
Seems crazy to up the price by more than £100, but people will pay it. It is still quite cheap compare to other phones, if you don't know what Google sell it for...

SGH-i605 Housing GREY

So I am having trouble finding replacement housing for my VZW Note 2. I have looked up and down, across every forum I could think of, and online on every retailer I could find and nothing has turned up. I have cracked the rim on my Note and would like to replace it. The problem is, I can't find replacements anywhere. I can find plenty of the white housings, but not the grey. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Go search ebay for "Note 2 oem frame" they are about 20 bux

Sprint one isn't work with verizon... Ad it does not have a sim card slot cut out.
Each version has a specific housing. You MUST purchase a Verizon one. Otherwise you could lose cell reception or damage the internals of the phone in some way. There are tiny little contact points for the radio antennas that are on the back frame. Each version has a different location for these antenna.

I will look into this. I just don't know why it is so hard to find these parts, it seems like the white ones are everywhere.

Just look for a 50% off coupon in one of these threads and go to the Samsung website and you will be done. It's not that complicated.

I need more than the battery door...I need the whole housing. Unless I missed the item on their site, I doubt it's going to be under the accessory section.

Contact the seller of this part and see if he can get you them.

Digitizer

How can I tell whether a digitizer is fake or not. I feel able to replace it myself but looking through eBay I can see some of them have HTC logo some of them hasn't. Is the logo part of the screen? Is it part of the digitizer?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I don't really think there is such thing as a "fake" digitizer. The ones that doesn't have a logo is most likely digitally blacked out on the photo to avoid legal issues.

I would take the chance... A digitizer is a digitizer... Of sorts... If it was a LCD that would be a different conversation. think you'll be alright.

Trade for new Moto x or no?

Is it a good trade?
32gb HTC one with some scuffs on metal, for a brand new white 16gb Moto x and he will include a pair of speakers (I'm sure they're cheap )

If your Htc One is in good condition except for those scuffs, imo this is not a good deal.
#firstworldproblems. do as you wish, there's no benefit to acting one way over the other. although you might want to think about getting a case for your htc one. that would be a reasonable investment.
main draws to the moto X are its pricepoint (doesn't matter since this is a trade), and fast updates from google. put a GPE RUU on your htc one, and you're facing a comparative few weeks delay to get updates (nothing major imo).
Moto x sucks imo....
Screw that
So consensus is that the HTC is better?

Warranty questions (stuck pixel)

My camera has pink thint in dark low lit areas and I have 1 stuck pixel near the left middle near the bezel. The stuck pixel color is white and I'm wondering if HTC will repair it or replace the screen? I already tried running unstuck pixel apps for like 2 hours now still nothing

It is a manufacturing defect. Htc will replace both the camera module and the lcd.

Lcd is defective so they will change it. Scratches are not counted as a damage. Yes you will be getting a fresh new lcd and the upper glass.
