XDA LCD Screen needed

Help,
I've duffed up the LCD on my XDA. The poor thing looks like it is bleading to death.
Anyone know where I can get a replacement? :?

Sheeesh $199 bucks!
That seems a pretty huge chunk of dosh. I think ebay for someones old XDA may be a slightly cheaper alternative.
Out of interest I have found a company called Proporta www.proporta.com that do screen repairs for £45.
I'll let this forum know what it is they do and if the price is right!
Thanks for your help!

bleading screen!
hi there.. i've finally found the right place for my problem.. well, yes my fone's screen is BLEEDING! it's tearing my heart! and again YES 200$ is alot of money.. so what've you found? is it cheaper anywhere else?

My solution
For the record, I have yet to find anyone in the UK who fixes, or replaces these screen. At the rate I am going I am going to start a business doing it myself! Proporta do the touch panel part not the LCD.
OK I'm not advocating this to everyone, but this solution worked for me.
I bought a used XDA of EBAY. Cost me £110, already cheaper than sending mine to the US for a new LCD. I have swapped the LCD out of the new one to my one. (my broken one had 64Mb, the ebay one only had 32Mb) So OK I now have a casing, battery, motherboard and a dead LCD as spares. I will either keep these spares, for my soon to be established XDA repair shop or I will sell them on.
It's not the bestsolution, granted, butit did get me back on the road for less than sending mine of to the US.
As for an XDA repair shop here in the UK, I'm thinking quite seriously about it, it wasn't a joke. I just need to nail down a decent supplier of LCD screens!!!

Spare digitizers on ebay... are the good?

Hello, since the screen (digitizer) has several annoying scratches I want to change it. I've searched on ebay and I've seen many cheap sellers for hongkong or china... Are those items as good as the original ones?

I purchased a new lcd and digitizer for my touch pro from ebay. I know its for a different phone but i cant see any difference between the diamond and touch pro other than the screen shape. (i have also had a diamond) It was £25 for the pair of them
To be totaly honest i cant tell the difference from the original. The touch works perfectly. The lcd screen is also equally as good.
As i tip i would get the digitizer and lcd as one unit, i have replaced several digitzers and lcd screens on alot of phones and it can be tricky seperating the 2. For the few extra quid in my opinion its not worth the hassle, or the risk of damaging one.

Thank you for the advice

eBay Screens are good IMO
I have purchased a couple of Digiter / Screen combos from eBay. So far I have not had a problem with any of them. One that I had ordered was from New York {HP iPaq}, & the other I ordered was from HK {T-Wing/Herald}. I just bought a used Diamond & it has a small scratch on the screen. This is annoying the Hell outta me so, I looked on eBay at screens. I usually try to find a true OEM replacement. I think that I found that @ this eBay page: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260468938303&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT . This is the best deal that I have been able to find. I know you're not in the US but maybe this helps anyway.

I bought a digitizer with lcd from ebay. The seller is from china or HK. The digitizer working good but the lcd quality abit lousy. display kinda dark compared to the original lcd. perhaps the pixel not same as the ori.
Anyway, if you think of just getting the digitizer, shud be fine. however you must be assure that you can replace it as it kinda difficult to change. unless you very confident on you soldering skill.

[Q] crack in digitizer what to do?

hi all,
i got a bargin latly and have now got a note but the main donside to this is that is has a chip/crack on the edge of the screen near the menu button.
i need to know anyone oppinion if i can get away with just repacing the digitizer or wil i have to repace the full lcd aswell, im really low on cash now but iv been checking ebay and heres what i found
digitizer - £8.95/$13.89
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Front-White-Digitizer-lens-Glass-Screen-For-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-i9220-N7000-/300733099033?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item460516ec19
full lcd + digitizer - £118.04/$138.24
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LCD-Touch-Digitizer-Screen-for-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-GT-N7000-i9220-white-/221002976265?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3374cdcc09
iv added the pics bellow and would love feedback to see what is the best situation for me. my so called local samsung repair centre who carnt even fix phones propperly (feedback from alot of people with broken screens) said that i have to replace it all and they quoted me £180.
please let me know guys

Ive seen worse
A simple digitizer replacement should suffice, theres numerous how to videos on you tube.
Just take your time and do not rush it, Also, Dont skimp on the price, If you get a cheap aftermarket digitizer, the performance might not be as good as a genuine one.
Finally, once you get it fixed, There is an app that can tune the sensitivity so you can get it perfect I think its called screentuner im not sure, google it !

thanks man really appreciate your help i didnt realise if i got a cheaper one would make it work crap. how much would you say to speand roughly?
btw i kno it isnt the worst but i ike my phone to be in mint condition especialy as i get bored very easy then it ends up in the mp withing 2 months lol

im not saying buy a really expensive one and get ripped off, I just mean dont buy one made from cheap parts, Like a chinese one.
If you could afford it, Buy genuine, If you cant, buy a recommended one, Check the sellers feedback and scour the internet for recommendations, There may even be some in the accessories section
EDIT: Im unsure whether the amoled screen is an all in one screen, Meaning the screen also recognises the touch and there is no digitizer, Does your phone respond to touch ?
Look at this i found on ebay - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Outer-Len...arts_Tools&hash=item20c7b38727#ht_2782wt_1037 It is just the outer glass screen, So if you get this, It wont affect the touch response :good:

I understand that it would affect the sale price, but be careful as I've found the most difficult thing to do is to separate the digitizer from the LCD screen without patience. The safest route would be to get the Digitizer + LCD costs, but ofc it costs ridiculously higher than just the digitizer.
For howto videos, search for "Galaxy Note Disassembly" on YouTube.

Yeah +1
Upon some more searching it seems like a really tricky job, Some say impossible, The choice is yours really, Try it and hopefully save your self some money, Or take the hit and get the whole package - Screen, Glass, digitizer ect.
You could also look at some sort of glass crack repair kit, Like they do on car windscreens, Its only a little crack where the soft keys are so its not disrupting the view of the screen, And it might just save some £££ and a lot of hassle too

again thanks guys,
the thing is all aspects of the screen are fully functioning. it did get it at a very good price i will admit it was cheap but it was only because it was too big for the women who had it previous and cex offered her £190 but wouldnt take it because o the crack!
im all for making sure my device look good i know you can say it doesnt ook bad but its just if it was cheap enough to fix i will do it. or if i end up putting it in the MP in a few weeks when i bored it can either buy and throw in the digitizer or the full pakage.
over than that this is why i posted iv never dont it before and iv sceen my mate do his galaxy s1 but thats it lol

Z3c cracked screen replacement question

Hello everyone!
I recently cracked the screen on this phone. It dropped from my pocket on the parquet. After I took it i saw the one crack across the screen. The display is working but touch works only in small area. So I decided to look for a replacement. But I dont't want to buy the screen with frame, as service suggested me, because it is too pricey in my country. So I want to buy just screen.
And there is a question. Can I find original screen from Sony without frame (i read what it comes only with frame in assembly) or all distributors which sells just display module as original OEM Sony part tells lie?
And if I can't, is there any very good comparable or maybe the same in image quality to original display copy?

Hi. I'm owning small repair service and I can say from experience there is no original LCD without frame. Sony service has only whole sets with frame and speakers but sometimes without flaps. LCDs without frame are never original. Unfortunately there is no tested distributor who always sells good quality replacements. It's all made in China and if You buy one of those it's better to buy from local supplier because You can return it when low quality come out. When You order it from China, You can return only when LCD or touch is not working.

Thank You for the very informative response.

But anyway, if anyone has replaced the screen with copy and it is very good quality, please reply.

It is a lottery. So even if anyone has a very good quality copy, it doesn't mean that you would get (from the same seller) the same. Besides - the good quality would mean different things to different people.
I would buy either original LCD or a new phone. As much as I know, you can get later various problems with 3rd party screens. Besides visual quality the cable connections and built-in chip must be good also otherwise you can see mild to heavy distortions very soon.

If I had to change LCD in my own phone I'd take used but original part instead of new replacement.

I had bought SGS7 a month later but among 3 phones all was with different screen defects. So i decided to return it and wait for SGS8 and now repair my Z3c (I have to use my HTC One V for daily tasks - a dubious pleasure). I don't want to spend much money on this phone. In the case of display quality for me is the lack of differences with the original or if they are not critical (the image is comparable). I read the forums and some people really got good replacement.

LCD Screen broken, need replacement

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).
