anyone know the best place to get replacement lcd/digitizer ..
seems to be abundant of them on ebay ..but how we know which one?
What prices are you seeing? Last time I looked, they were $170 - $200 for the screen assembly.
I just shipped my phone off to an official Samsung repair center. It took about a week and cost $182 with tax for parts and labor on a new LCD/digitizer/screen for my Note 5. In addition to changing the screen, they also changed the metal side part, it's brand new with no scratches. That seems like a better deal to go that route if you have a spare phone you can use for a week. Just hop on Samsung's website to get the number to call. Don't fall for their ~$74 price quote. That's how much they charge just to diagnose your problem. I told them exactly what my problem was and what was needed, she told me $74. I nearly peed myself. After the repair center got it, they canceled that charge and told me it would be an extra $X for the parts and $74 was the diagnostic fee. Still, $182 total for parts and labor is a good deal, comparatively.
thanks for the write up!......
actually I have it dismantled already..... just wondering best place to buy replacement seems to average price at Same price you paid for fix.
I'm in dublin and note 5 wasn't sold in europe so I set about fixing it myself.

I (im in California, USA) recently bought an AT&T Tilt for $350 (got a great deal!) and only got a few good hours on it until dropping it (luckily i put on a protective clip on case from day one) but not lucky enough to keep my LCD from getting a nice hairline crack about a half an inch from the top toward the middle. So heres my options...
1. Replace the LCD (best i found was an lcd for about 130 including shipping from the UK)
2. Deal with the nice 0.5in x 2in area of messed up picture from the cracked LCD and use it like it is.
3. Sell it AS IS
4. Somehow convince ATT or HTC to replace it for me and little or no cost LOL
Any suggestions on this? Anyone know cheap repair services or cheap parts or need an 8925 with a broken LCD (throw me an offer ).
I'd try 3b, lol. give it a shot, you never know.
ok help me out with my statement im pretty good at working over reps, ive gotten out of 2 Cingular contracts, a SBC contract, a DishNetwork Contract...lol but getting a free repair/part i dont know about..
oh yah...3b lol sorry i changed it to 4
Re:
If you cant haggle for a repair, cnn.cn is always good for cell phone replacement parts.
Wish I had the money
to buy it from you, would like to test a rom on a spare device so I dont brick mine. flashing roms looks easy but better safe than sorry.
Still paying off mine.
throw me an offer
lol didnt see your title..sorry
Similar to you, I got my Tilt on Oct 19, and on Oct 20, I broke the screen. I searched around reading through all the threads about Tilt broken LCD in this forum, I finally find a guy named Nicholas who sold me a LCD replacement from Mainland China. Doesn't take too long I received the LCD replacement, and replaced the broken LCD by myself.
It is a little bit risky to replace the LCD by yourself if you are not technical. There are some threads you may want to read before actually replacing it. It is not very tough to replace the LCD if you knopw the tricks and right tools.
I was quoted $150 months ago for th replacement, and I am sure the price now is a lot cheaper. Please contact Nicholas if you want to get a replacement from him. I have PM you his email address. You may want to mention my ID when communicating with you.
Good Luck!

I have never had such a bad shopping exprience!
the short story is
i bought a brand new nexus s from them.
when i got it from the mail,i noticed the seal on the box was broken.
i wrote them an email.
and then to my amazement i was SHOCKED to find out the screen was so defective.
it had about 20 dead pixels on it.
by the way,it was sent in a bubble wrap with no external box protecting it,so i susspect it was damaged in transit,or it's a refurbished item,i am not really sure...
in anycase it's their fault.
on top of that they had not included a receipt so i had to pay the customs a 100 pounds.
i called them,and they said to me to sent it back.
i told them it's impossible for me to do that.
because due to my state's laws if i send it to them and they replace it,im going to pay an import tax again.
and i told them i lost alot of work because they did not include a receipt in the box so it was stuck in the customs for about a month,and i was stuck without a phone.
so i called them,about 20 times told them i cant send it to them and im not willing to pay another 100 pounds due to their mistakes,and be without a phone for a nother month.
i said i would accept a partial refund and will pay the rest out of my pocket.
and then they offered me the insulting amount of 20 pounds refund!
my skype credit cost me that !
and that's for an open box with a defective screen
i would advise ANYONE not to buy from them.
i am now stuck with a defective nexus s that eventualy cost me more than it would have in my country.

My galaxy note motherboard got shot in some chips, coz of water gone inside. how much will cost to replace only motherboard..
may be around 9000 to 10000 Rs here in india.
i have cleaned the water patches in the shot area.. is there possible to get claim the warranty??
You may try, although water might have caused micro-corrosion on the PCB which the guys from service centre will probably notice. You've got nothing to lose though.
does anyone know where I can.order a motherboard for my note? I'm.in Canada with a N7000 note...Samsung doesn't sell/service devices outside north America. and UK Samsung doesn't service/sell outside UK...!

My friend got his screen replacement from them - can't really verify the shop so you might want to check it first.
Also, there are some boards on eBay, might be worth to look there.
Samsung parts are relatively cheap compared to what we generally see on ebay, at least so is the case in India, though the phone costs every penny of the $600 odd dollars that it is priced at.
I was one of those unfortunate enough to have 2 Galaxy Notes withered away because of a broken display and an emmc chip which decided to go rogue.
So off to the service center the phones go, after much back and forth with whether the phone is rooted and what not we finally agreed upon the emmc issue sorted by Samsung and the display borne by me.
Long story short, the motherboard costs around 9000 Indian Rupees which is about 165 USD, give or take.
global direct parts are a bunch of crooks...id shy away from them... their parts are not what they claim and when you try to return them they refuse claiming you broke them even though you never used them and thats the way you received them...

Buy a used handset?
I was looking into this after water damage to my mobo but in the end it seemed easier, less risky and not much more expensive just to buy a used n7000 complete. Admittedly this was in the UK but I was able to pick up an excellent condition Note with box and all accessories for just over £100. If that is an option for you I'd recommend it rather than dealing with some of these unreliable companies.
Good luck!
is there anyway to order a motherboard and get it shipped in Bangladesh?
In India, 10k these service center guys are suckups here, they don't easily agree to do big repairs, and in my opinion if you r living in Delhi then go to Gaffar Market, Karol Bagh and you can get it fixed in around 3-5K, you will get an orignal samsung PCB/Motherboard(used 1) which they have taken through service center links from the original phones ( Ya believe it or not, it all happens).
Hope I have helped.

Mobile Phone Insurance NEXUS 6 new UK
Dear Friends,
I have just ordered 64GB Nexus 6 from carphone warehouse costing 549 quids. I would like to have an insurance for it as its really costly phone and i am really scared for accidental damage / theft.
I have been reading on net so many forums and reviews. It seems no policy is perfect. However i still need to cover this inder Insurance.
In your opinion and experience which Insurance I should be buying for this mobile phone?
Kindly advise.
Kindly reply...Awaitinf valuable feedback
plsss

I've just taken out this insurance. It looks okay (although one never knows till a claim)
I use Fonesafe and always have done. They will replace with new if it's within a few months and refurbished after that. I pay £8.99 a month and it's £30 for first claim and it goes up after. I've claimed twice over the years and I either got new phones or they were spot on for refurbished as I had no idea that most insurers actually replace with refurbished until recently when I had issues with CPW.
I also use Endsleigh for my gadget cover (everything else) and they charge less than £5 per month for £500 gadget cover but, I've not had to claim in the 2yrs I've been with them.
You could always self insure by putting away the total amount split by the time you intend to keep it. That way you would be able to use the cash for future devices if you can spare it but, you'd be rinsing your pot each time you do. I've tired this but, it only lasts until the next Nexus comes out so I've always kept using Fonesafe
Hi @ all, i've just got my brand new Verizon Note 5 a few days ago, and today i've dropped it and the AMOLED inside (not the outer Glass) has a couple of hairline cracks which caused a black screen. The blue LED on the Top is still lightning. Anyone knows where i can buy a new LCD Assembly ? ebay, etradesupply and other shops for parts dont have it (yet). Anyone knows other shops where i can buy it ? Maybe i need to wait because the phone is still too new for getting parts for it.. ?
You can most likely still sign up for insurance through your carrier, pay a deductible and get a new one overnighted.
Most carriers have a 30 day grace period to allow for insurance signups.
+1^ but may be considered insurance fraud but it really wouldnt be questioned.
Samsung will fix it pretty cheaply usually.
with Sprint, after getting a new phone, they give you some number of days for you to add insurance before it's too late, as ksantangelo23 mentioned.
