Bought on the bay a screen replacement part (oled + digitalized) that had been told to be an original OEM part, my repair shop says it's not original: how can I verify?
They never are bro
Even if you send it to Google official repair shop?
Correct

so i bought my tilt like 2 months ago..today at the gym..i dropped it..and cracked the screen..now the screen is completly white with a big ol' crack going through it...
my first question is..what kinda warrenty does att have/ what can i do to get this replaced?
number 2...i have a custom rom....but since i cant actually see anything on the screen..how do i go about flashing the original back so my warrenty isnt void? if i just flash it regularly would that work..and leave it on the phone without setting it up or anything??
thanks in advance
Broken Screen is "Physical Damage" & as such not covered by the Mfg's warranty.
Your choices are send it to a center for repair, buy a new device, or buy the LCD & digitizer & install it yourself.
If HTC repair finds the damage is your fault they charge $28 to fix anything not there fault. When you send it to them they ask for credit card number for this . I just had to send my phone back and this is what happened
Actually HTC will charge way more than $28 for things not covered by warranty (like "physical damage"). I spoke with a HTC repair person on the phone the other day and she told me that the average bill for repairs on the kaiser was $140 or so.
Bought an Xperia about 3 months ago brand new from a T-Mo dealer in Chicago, about a few weeks ago the phone began restarting by itself over and over everytime I touch a button.
I called SE, explained the problem, they told me to send it in. After about a week or two the phone comes back unrepaired. SE states that the phone has been tampered with and they will not be able to repair it."Tampered Unit: Arrived with flux & other residue over most of the board and components have been changed on the board from attempted repair..." I called the dealer who I bought the phone from and they said the phone was brand new and that they did not tamper with it. Now I'm stuck with a $500 paperweight. T-mobile won't help because they said they do not offer this phone in the US. What can I do? Sooooo mad right now.
I am from chile and i can repair that thing very easy...try to use some isopropilic alcohol...to clean it...If that doesn't help the IC should be replaced..with a new one or maybe replaced with the same after clean it...with some specials tools...Of course...
Just go to a random mobile phone repair shop. They will fix it for 50 bucks.
ring sony again and dont back down - if your firm and tell them that you wont take no for an answer then they will give in and stop trying to rip you off
why did you tamper with it???

He didn't, according to his post.
Last friday, my phone started to have a pink tint near the bottom of the screen. Since then, this pink has spread across half the screen. I still have about 1 month on my manufacturers warranty, however, a few months ago i replaced my screen with an OEM one i found on ebay.
I did a bit of research and i found out AMOLED screens at one point had a pink screen defect on certain phones.
Has anyone encountered this problem?
Would you guys risk sending it into the repair depot for repairs? The customer representative told me if my phone is physical/water damage free, they will repair it under samsung's manufacturer warranty.
I don't want to lose 25 shipping it there and another 25 for the phone assessment only to find that it isnt covered...
Any ideas?
Dont worry friend...just send it to service center and they will replace it.Dont dealy,you cannot solve this problem by your own.
100% chances are that samsung will replace it.My friend also had such issue and samsung replace it and handed the phone in 3 days.In our country,you have to walk to service center to obtain warrenty.No shippibg here

if u changed the screen then how come ull get any replacement,i doubt it...go to a sammy center an replace the screen..u cant repair the pink or watever the screen as got...gudluk
the first screen needed replacement due to a crack. i knew samsung wouldnt cover the cracked screen so i replaced it myself. however, this time the OEM screen now has a tint of pink
Manually walk to a Samsung center and ask then that can this he repaired under warranty? If they say no ask them what cost they will take to repair it and if the cost ain't high go for it get a new screen ! Don't think a lot in such matters Coz at last u will have to get it repaired by some means! Hope I helped!

It will be good idea to walk manually to samsung service center.Dont tell them that in past u replaced the screen and also dont act like technical expert with them.Just behave as noob and i think you will have success

hahah behave like a noob and you shall recieve hahah
Sadly,i dont have a samsung repair center within walking distance. For me its actually 13 hour drive <- way.
The repair center requires me to send via purolator to their facility then pay them a 25 dollar inspection fee. They do no have walk in service.
This is why i wanted to ask for everyone's opinion before i invest another 50 dollars into something that has already failed me twice...
Hi, ran a search first but no luck. I own an international (asian I think) Note 9, which I accidentally dropped yesterday from my hand to the floor and landed on the screen and I found out Note 9 screens suck because it fell from waist level and it shattered even with a tempered glass screen protector, thought it was the protector at first but turns out the screen took all the damage. Thing is I'm in the US, I purchased this because I needed a dual sim version. I've reached out to Samsung and apparently they won't touch the phone (much like the other thread I found about a guy in the same situation but in the UK), there's no ubreakifixit store nearby and I don't get the prompt to send it in, I was thinking of giving it a shot myself but watched the video tutorial and seems to hard and I fear I might damage it beyond repair. Any other advice other than get a new phone? not many local repair shops about, there's a few iphone ones.
Your best bet would be to take your device to a 3rd party repairs shop and get them to fix it. As the UK Samsung Service Center won't touch imported devices, even if they are official Samsung Devices. Don't try any large chain repair shops as they use official Samsung Repairs Devices and won't touch import devices either for fear of loosing their official Samsung Repairs Certification.

US Samsung ubreakit locations will fix international phone screens. So if you can find a location near you, you can call to verify. (For some reason, if you call Samsung and ask if they will fix the phone they will say no, but the local authorized Samsung repair centers in the us got a memo earlier this year authorizing them to work on international devices).
Thanks for the advice, found a nearby repair shop. Not sure if it's still worth paying a 1/4 of the original price for repair, seems like replacing it might be best.
Hi all
My Zenfone 8 screen is broken and needs to be replaced after a fall. The phone is still under warranty so I was wondering if anyone had this fixed already and knows how much does the repair through Asus USA cost because the customer service representative didn't tell arguing that it needs evaluation from the repair technician.
This process sucks because you need to send it in first for an evaluation and then you get the estimate and you get to say if you want it fixed or not. I was wondering if I could know the cost before sending it in.
Thanks
