Hey guys,
My Mi3w's screen recently shattered, and the touch stopped working too.
Should I repair the screen? What would the cost be?
Or should I try to sell it, and buy a new phone, maybe a Redmi 3? (not the Note 3)
Opinions?
I live in India btw
I guess screen would cost you around 4-5k just a guess.. So if I were you.. I will definitely go for redmi note 3..

Agreed with @sidhg. that should be around 4-5K+tax
At ebay india 1500₹ only. Buy it.
If you really love your Mi3 and would want to continue using it then you should just buy a cheap screen from ebay which will cost around 1500 bucks. Thats what I did. Screen is ok but not the same quality as the original one. No Gorilla Glass.
If money is not a concern then you can give it to the service center and they'll replace it with original screen for >5000 bucks.
I you want to move on from Mi3 then the best choice is Redmi Note 3 right now. Cheap and best.
I am having Mi3 for 2 years now! And if I were you, I would have got the screen replaced! This phone never tires out! It goes on and on and on! Two years now, still it is one of the few phones having an official MiUi update that is based on Marshmallow! Two years now, this baby is holding on to any thing you through on it and holds on with ease!
This maybe my love for this phone talking but still I wouldn't give it away like that!
It's cost 500 Chinese yuan in official service in Shanghai.
if you are in delhi , go to gaffar market , get it replaced for 1800 Rs Max.
I made a mistake once for geting it replaced via SC.
Well the one im using from there , works as good as original.
Put a Good temper , try unbreakable ones post replacement.
Mi3 has one good part that is screen which is quite fragile

the battery cover does not include the NFC sensor, you will need to add one to it, to use the function.

back from china.
my supplier says the white cases, are not available yet in china, and will contact me when they arrive, I have ordered 35 pieces, also I did notice today that china in shenzhen, they just got delivery of over 100 black nexus s, all the shops were testing the units before they start to sell them, they were all wrapped in bubble wrap, and all are to be sold without boxes, the shipment was from europe or the us, without the boxes, they skip paying tax, that what i've been told.
So where to buy the cover 'cause at the ebay thing at the other post is postet that the list is ended so i cannot buy it i think, I'm right?

Not because it make our phone like an Iphone, but I like it ^_^ and hope if it comes with other colours
Maybe Scott from DBA can helps bring these from China
I'm interested in both colors if it's not too expensive.
Damn TBH that looks really good..but sadly it probably doesnt have an NFC antenna on the back cover..I have some friends in China who send me stuff if i ask them to quite often..i might be able to get a hold of that case.Can we please get a link ?
It looks so slick that I would like to use a silicon protector skin on top of it!
Seriously, looks-wise it seems perfect, but I have doubts about protection and dust sealing qualities.
Get ready to be sued by pathetic apple
do they ship to U.S? and is it really $2.37 dollars?

The slot for the pen looks like it has too much excessive free space but I guess that's because of the look.
I kinda like the look, no doubt it will protect the phone well. Next time I am in china I will look out for some.
I want this!! If anyone figures out how to order it PLEASE SHARE!! I want the white silver version. I also tried to translate/order and got "share baby" too. I tried to set up an account but the translator is limited. If anyone knows who is making these.. TELL THEM TO PUT THEM ON REAL EBAY!

Today, I saw this under the touchscreen. It looks like some dust or air bubbles, which are under the touch area, situated directly above the Tegra 3 CPU so can it have something to do with the heat, which come from the cpu? The phone is 1 month old (bought 21/3/2013). I'm sending the phone to reclamation (and want new piece), but I'm afraid that this can happen again.
Have anyone same problem?

i have the same issue, but only one bubble, and it was there the day i bought it. i was too lazy to wait for a replacer, so i just stuck with mine, since it's only visible if you're really looking for it.

I don't think they would have noticed if I had been a bit more careful. They use Philips head screws and no "VOID" stickers.
I actually kinda scratched the glass on the inside

Wow thats sucks guys, if any has or is gonna send it in with an unlocked bootloader i wonder if they will fix it. If any of these manufacturers would honor their warranties for non-software related issues with unlocked bootloaders id stick with them regardless.
I have the same problem, I am do not have official support from LG in my country
Someone has a tutorial in order to clean/remove this bubbles?

Bro that looks bad
Don't worry flash back stock Rom and stock kernel and you can get it fixed in warranty after flashing stock kernel the Red thingy on Htc splash screen gets vanished ...Cause after Rooting warranty voids
from what i've heard mechanical damage isn't covered by the warranty as it is your fault.
i could be wrong so you should try it.
or you can go to a service to install a new screen. a new screen+digitizer costs about 19 euros (in my country) dont know how much the replacement itself costs

19 euros??!! that is cheap! i expected it to be something like 80 euros!
i don't need a brand new LCD because it is still fine i took my old desire c apart once and the LCD and digitizer weren't together! (it does suck i didn't keep that one :\)
I checked amazon, parts4cheap and other services they all sell if for a price of 12.49$ i didn't know the touch screen was this cheap!
Edit: the touch screen still fully works so I can keep using my phone till I decide to buy a new screen

It should have been originally sealed box (it was obviously sealed by them after doing god knows what)..
Probably your phone got cloned IMEI

So that's an obvious red flag for gearbest I'd say. Did you pay with PayPal?
Try to contact seller... Other than that, I believe edl could solve your problem.

Yep, thank God I did!
I've already contacted the Gearbest, they are "solving" the issue. Funny thing is, that I've brought OnePlus 7 Pro, this year from them.. for mad cheep I think with a coupon it was around 550€.. 8gb/256gb variant.. It was said that it is an international version.. So I've played dumb.
I've contacted the OnePlus and told them that the phone was a bday gift, and I just want to know how much of warranty do I have for it.. They then said to me that the phone is Chinese version, and that originally it runs HydrogenOS.. What I've done is contact them, told them they f** me over, they then offered a 150€ back, witch I took.
Later on I've brought a Mi 9T for my friend (he had Redmi note 3 pro until that point) the phone came originally boxed.. And since I saw that there is a 81hz refresh mod for Mi 9T series.. I've said to myself ah well fu** it, I'll sell my OP7 Pro and get Mi 9T, unlock it, flash Pixel Experience or Paranoidandroid and later on OxygenOS + 81hz mod and basically have the same experience with probably better camera (I've had Poco last year and man that phone had some good photos with gcam) and be happy, I could live with worse vibration motor.. So I've gotten the Mi 9T Pro for 320€.. And now.. here we go again.
I know I could probably fix it with EDL, and I probably will... but why should I? It's their mistake, and they should refund me in some way.. And I'm not sending the phone back, as I've already brought and installed screen protectors and some cases, so that was what, around 30ish € more.. All in all the device is great and I love it, the screen, the size, cameras.. but man I miss so much notifications on MIUI and the autobrightens is really bad, but I knew this things before buying, So I've brought the phone with the intention to unlock it and install a custom software on it.
