yes it cheaper, but if you want to maintain the waterproof, you should get it repaired at oem.. anyway, what is the meaning having a waterproof camera if you cannot dive with it..

Shouldn't this be in general not the accessories forum?
camera
this is what you need ;-)
Can't you remove the glass and replace it?
I've just seen...it's only the plastic insert that is broken is it not?
It's just a thin square of plastic, stuck down with some kind of non drying sticky resin

yes thats what ı need. the plastic insert that is broken
from where ı can find it? since one month I searching for it
This might sound crazy but...Take apart the device. Bust out the broken glass and just put all back together. Get a protective carrying case. Won't be an eyesore anymore and you can quit looking for that little piece.
and Leoni, are you selling the part or just showing off? HA.
Okay I found something that looks like it contains what you need.
I'm thinking you buy it. Remove what you want and sell the rest as is gently used.

Scroll down to where they have the pics in the listing. Second one shows one with glass over camera.
Or what about a dummy phone? They might use the same glass! And you'll have a toy!

beggers cant be choosers
Honestly I think the dummy phone purchase may be your way to go.
You would only be spending about $25-30 USD to have a possible fix.
If this part WERE available, I imagine it costing at least $10-20 USD.
Beggars can be choosers, but you just have less to choose from!
still could not find any seperate insert plastic ):
in fact I have same problem , the first crack appeared after two weeks maybe , then another one after next two weeks , look pretty shattered by now , but surprisingly pics still do come out al right
doesn't really affect the phone , just ruins it visually , and the funny thing is that HTC in the warranty agreement specified already that any external damage to the screen , camera , lens etc. is not covered by the warranty
I wonder if my phone brakes down for a different reason and I send it back , would they void it since I had the camera glass broken , claiming I was handling is roughly

you probably wont find something that small of a part being sold separately, so your best bet is buying the whole case listed before and using the part out of it, or swapping all your stuff over to it. Not expensive but probably all you can hope for unless someone is selling parts off.
broken camera glass
i also broke mine sent it back to htc and for £71.00 inc collection and delivery they replaced it it comes back wiped so back up first
71 pounds for a simple piece of plate-glass that can even be removed and reinstalled without opening the housing? That sounds fairly pricey to me...
And seeing that a lot of people are experiencing the same problem (including myself) wouldn't it be nice if HTC would recognise the design flaw and send out $0.05 pieces of glass to everyone needing one? But knowing HTC that is not gonna happen
I for one am thinking about grinding a thin piece of plexiglass into the right shape and using that. A replacement piece of glass is just going to break again anyway...
Hey,
My Xperia Z cracked while laying on my bed. I've read all the topics about the design flow, is it worth to try and get the phone repaired under warranty in Australia? The glass isn't cracked, only the digitizer(lcd looks fine).
Otherwise, has anyone tried screen assembly with frame kit? There are some on ebay from china but the pictures don't really show the quality of the frame so I'm wondering if it's any good.
What about adhevise, what should I use to keep the parts together? Probably I can forget about waterproofness?
Thanks in advance

I believe the digitizer and lcd are fused together and cannot be replaced independently of each other.
This is very common with new phone as it helps keep the display assembly thinner and improves the IQ of the screen.
You have to buy an entire display assembly and replace the whole thing.
Here is one...

And there are instructions here

Called Sony Au today, they told me that they charge 40 aud for examination of the phone and u have to send the phone to Sydney. Told me that they have never repaired cracked screen in sony xperia z under the warranty and the cost is bit under 500..haha. I used to love sony but not anymore!

happened to me but I dropped my phone instead. My digitizer got damaged but my LCD works fine. I had it replaced with one a replacement front panel. Sony was going to charge me HK$2,100. I got mine replaced for HK$1,200.
Hello everyone,
My XZ screen broken and half of screen doesnt regocnize any touches...
Is possible to change touch digitizer? In home? Or better to bring it to the service?

Probably is posible to change the screen by yourself, if you are skilled enough. Bringing it to service, last time I checked, they charged you half the price of a new unit for the new screen.

oh dear thats going to cost you. i broke mine xperia z screen all i did was take it out of my pocket and it was broke. i sourced the part off amazon for 95 quid. all because sony are robbing and put the outerglass with the lcd all in one unit to make it more expensive. anyway i did it myself as the repar centre was asking 250 quid. its not waterproof now though as i couldnt find the gasket for the lcd so i used normal 2 mm strips.
Thanks guys.. Okay.. I will try to change by myself.. maybe do you know where i can get cheaper that glass lens?
I found this cheapest variant in ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Sony-Xp...er_Cell_Phone_Accessories&hash=item2a306f4842
P.S. How I understant the Display and digitzer is all in one?
up..
I cracked the glass on my Moto X 2014... I don't want to replace the whole screen, it's expensive. Can I buy a fitting glass and replace just that? If so, where do I buy it, and are there any instructions (either written or video)?
Thanks a lot.
As far as I know, it is not possible to buy the glass on its own. The entire front panel - glass, digitizer and screen - all come as one unit. Even if you could buy it separately, I think you'd have a difficult time replacing it on an existing panel.

There are other videos but it's possible but not easy.
If you have cracked glass and touch working, I would recommend you to install a tempered glass screen protector for now (temporarily).
Save money and get a full display assembly (glass+digitizer+frame)
Because fixing the glass alone is the toughest job to do in a mobile!
Spares are around 100$ in ebay. :|
Thanks guys! I think I will proceed with the tampered glass protector then. Spares are really very expensive at the moment, jeez...
Hey Nijom
could you (or somebody else) link me where I could buy a tampered glass screen protector or other good quality screen protector for the Moto X? Unfortunately I cannot find any here in Italy, in physical shops, and in order to buy online, I'd like to get a good one.
Thank you

I contracted Motorola and they sent me a replacement device for $125. The best part: it was still on 5.0 and I was able to Mofo and sunshine to unlock. It's like I got a completely new phone for $125.

I got one from Alibabaexpress: (note, the link is in turkish)
http://tr.aliexpress.com/item/For-M...ouch-Screen/32374054319.html?isOrigTitle=true
I can verify that this is an OEM screen. I replaced it myself which wasn't too difficult except for the fact that the included T4 screwdriver broke after unscrewing six screws. Also I wish I had bought those pointed tweezers that are in all of the repair videos. I just had normal nail tweezers which made the repair more difficult but I still did it.
Hi, today i found out that i can't work with my phone in the pouch, i've broken the glass simply by picking something that fell on the ground. Now i need replacement, some suggested me to buy the LCD with the frame, others say that a s*itty frame could give me issues with gps and antennas in general. I don't want to wait one month for a replacement screen only to find out that the quality is rubbish, so i ask you: what and where is the best replacement part i can buy? Thanks in advance

All the replacements you buy will be the same sh*t quality, the only difference is gonna be the price. The best solution is to take to the Authorize MI service centre, but that will cost a lot and it will probably take a month. Or, maybe finding a damaged/used Mi Max which has a and not damaged screen.
just wait for max3

Eh, I bought this replacement screen on Amazon for $36 CAD. It came in about a month, and works just fine. It *is* a bit dimmer than the stock display, so I have to use a brighter setting when outdoors, but otherwise, no issues. It even comes with the tools / 3M Tape / Etc for the repair (though I didn't opt to DIY, I paid a local shop $50 to do it for me with my provided materials).
