First of all hi to everybody.
Been on this forum for months now reading about this great phone samsung galaxy note.
But now i have a issue that i would like to discuss with you because some of you already have or will have this problem with the phone.
So the problem is after 2 months that i had my Note i noticed a slight crack around the display of the phone and today i noticed another one.
I called a official samsung service in my country and asked them how much will it cost to exchange that piece of plastic. And he told me that i have to exchange the whole display and housing! Which is around 200€!
So attached some pictures below.
My question is did somebody tried to change the housing on the Note and is it true that i have to exchange the display also?
Because i found a new housing for the note for only 30$ on ebay and was wondering is it hard to replace it on my own.
My phone did not drop or fell from anywhere since i had it. Only thing is that i wear it in a jacket pocket everyday because it is my business phone.
Appreciate your time.
Watch video's in YouTube om how to relaxen that (Samsung galaxy note dissasembly if I'm right)

I am one with exactly same problem, yesterday only I have noticed similar crack at corner of housing, I guess sammy used really cheap plastic got this crack within 2 months from purchase.
update:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Ho...ain_0&var=&hash=item2a1a72435d#ht_4864wt_1037
this should solve the issue..
Yeah it should but then again....it sucks. So pricey phone and then they use so cheap plastic. Firstly i was dissapointed with the battery cover. I loled when i first removed it.
And now this thin frame cracking.
If u decide to change the housing maybe u can make a tutorial for others to see. Including me.
I would not think twice if i was sure i can take it apart and then put it together back again.

Hi Guys
Today the worst thing happened :-o i dropped my note 2 onto concrete.. luckily it hit the corner and hasnt damaged any of the screen or anything.
Unfortunately the chrome edging is scuffed badly on the corner, i know it could be replaced on the original note is this still the case on the note 2?
Would a samsung service centre be able to do it?
Thanks

Of course, but they'll charge you a pretty penny! But you won't be voiding your warranty, though. So that's the plus side of going to their service centers.
Wow..i feel u pain..could share some photo maybe?

The bezel is attached to the back housing and should not be too expensive to replace. 20 bucks on eBay.
I got quoted 130 when I called the service centre.. Mmm maybe they misunderstood

That's probably right from Samsung. Skilled labor costs a lot

Chrome edging?
So sad to hear.... I am not sure if it can be replaced like note 1 or not.... but incase if its not... then buy yourself Aluminium bumber for Note 2 on ebay.com. I am sure it will add a good look and will cover the ugly dent as well.

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.

Hey what is LGE? I've had my N4 for almost 2 weeks and just shattered the front glass rendering it unusable. It was on a hard surface and just fell on its own. thanks

Screen got smashed from a tiny 2 foot fall
Can anyone suggest a place online that sells the complete original screen assembly (lcd+digitizer+glass+stylus flex copper sheet needed for pen to work).

Sorry on your loss but buy a new phone instead as there wont be a big price difference
Thanks for the replies.
@ashej I checked with the guy, it doesn't come with the copper flex sheet.
@RootUsers New screen should cost about $200 + $30 installation. That's not too close to the price of a new note 5, but I agree, its a lot of money to pay on a second hand phone, especially with the S7 around the corner.
I dont know what you check, but with this screen spen works.

That is definitely not original Samsung. Might be a good aftermarket, but not what i need.
Dropped my one plus three when I came out of the car.
Screen is fully smashed.
Where can I buy a new one.
Thanks
When mine broke just a few days after release I got oneplus to fix it. Cost £87 Inc shipping

yeah, better apply for OnePlus repair. Also you could buy from ali or ebay, but replacement is a little bit tricky, need to have really strong adhesive to hold lcd and frame in one piece without gaps. If screen would be working, i could change just the glass with loca/oca.
Some corrections - OP3 has AMOLED type display and not LCD
Same Happened to Me..
