Hi forumers,
last month, i accidentally dropped my phone from my pocket jackets causing the screen crack and leaving the outer casing marked. but the touching functionally is still working fine although the digitizer are crack. So, i did email HTC UK asking for quotation for repair and replace it. Unfortunately, they cant tell me how will it cost until their technician have a look the condition of it.
So, anyone have send their HD2 to HTC centre for repair? how much will it cost for:-
new digitizer - £???
new outer casing - £???
new camera sleeve(where the phone rest) - £??
labour - £??
i have check the part price on Ebay and youtube on how to repair it by myself, but i just afraid to do it, as i got no skill to do it
thanks in advance
Cheers.

After searching the internets and this forum with no success, I have finally found out how to order replacement parts and where to send my wizard in for service!
Replacement parts from HTC direct: 888-482-8725
Service from HTC: 888-356-2375 (They answer as Tmobile customer care, but are actually a division of HTC).
I got in a very violent car wreck last week and my wizard was found 30 feet away, scratched up (with a screen protector), with no battery or back cover. I ordered a replacement battery and cover with shipping for $40 that arrived the next day (I'm in Dallas and they're in Houston)! My wizard still works fine and I can send it in to HTC for them to put a new case for $80. They wouldn't promise me, but the rep said he'd try to get me a 8125 case instead of the MDA case (keeping fingers crossed)!
I would love a new case for my xda mini s, any brand would do. Come to think of it i would like a new front cover for the screen too (maybe just the digitizer) as it has a few feint marks.
If anyone has a contact in the uk that can get any parts please let me know. I'm happy to do the job myself.
Do you know if it's possible to purchase the casing without them instaling it? I have the service manual, and I'm pretty confident in doing the case switch myself. I currently have an MDA, but i find the keyboard on the 8125 to be nicer. Just my opinion.

I asked them that and they said no. I would have done it myself as well.
If this works, you just made my day. I'm gonna call them up a little later.

Does anyone have the current phone # for HTC parts? I am looking for a G1 touch panel - just the glass. Thanks!
I'm in the same boat as InksterOne. I need to replace the glass panel on my G1. Not the whole LCD assembly, just the glass. I need a place to order HTC replacement parts.
http://www.mobile-phone-lcd.com/
That place was awesome for LCD and touch-panel purchases, I got my G1 touchpanel (the glass piece) from HK in 3 days, and it was a genuine replacement part as well. I'm still looking for a place that sells the other parts... >_<
gsensor is not working
my gsensor is not working on my touch diamond. could you pls help
Can you share with me the email ?
Hi.
I need an HTC parts supplier, and your finding would make my day.
As I live overseas, and sometimes is hard to find a solution by phone when you can´t spend hours in the phone, I wonder if you have a name and an email which I can use to ask for Rhodium parts over there?
Thanks in advance.
David.-

anyone have an update on htc parts supplier? i need a hero speaker replacement!
I've used RepairsUniverse.com last few times I've cracked one of my screens. Last time was last month on my brand new HTC Droid Incredible. They had both the LCD and the glass screen replacements (i just needed the glass) and they had all the other models also. They always ship fast, and both times i've been very happy.
HTC parts can be found here - Repairsuniverse.com/htc-replacement-parts.html

I feel sorry for you mate, I know exactly what it feels like having gone thru it myself, just got it repaired yesterday (broke the digitizer).
If your in UK I can give you the address of the shop that fixed mine, it cost me £75 to replace the digitizer but it was well worth it, feels like a new phone again.
What's broken just the digitizer or both?
There is a thread here somewhere with a lot of information, if you want to DIY, I didn't have the guts for that, chose the easy way.

The post above mine is right your options are find a shop that does those kinds of repairs, they are a lot of them from what I gather. I live in the US and there is shop in my local area. You can also do it yourself (DIY as the other post said) you can find the parts on Ebay, and you will need a small hex head screw driver. If you have the EU model this might require some soldering by you, it has been some conflicting reports that some have to solder the connections and some just have to plug in the ribbons. If you have the T-Mobile model then it will not require any soldering just blug the ribbons into the main board
I saw the videos on how to fix it yourself, im not sure if i would be able to do it. Well my friend cracked the screen and HTC charged 185 to fix it for him. But i have smashed the screen and the housing also (btw, Ford Explorer ran over it)im sure it would be 250 or something. Im not sure if its worth spending so much money on this phone.
Phone is turning on and works fine, i can even get calls but can't pick the calls as touch screen won't work. Just the glass and housing needs to be replaced.

Does anyone know any repair shop in NY or any place which would be cheaper than HTC? Thnx guys,
ouch. That's painful to even look at. I'm no expert or anything, but i think if a heavy SUV ran over it then it must have crunched the components on the inside. I'd say it's not worth it because you can find a used one for around the same price (probably)
Well amazingly its a sturdy phone, its ringing when someone calls me, its getting the text msgs, alarm went on in the mrng. Everything seems to be fine, besides the touch interface not working and of course physical damage.
Need to find one with a dead or faulty motherboard then do a swap job. Would not want to pay repair centre cost but worth doing yourself if can find a cheap donor device ...

Well i did find the housing for $20+ online and glass with digitizer for around 90 on ebay (US Seller). Its just that its too much work and probability of messing it up is very high
You need a whole device as donor really as I suspect you will find a few less than perfect parts & having a spare of everything will prove invaluble & also allow you to recoup some cost by selling unwanted parts individually.
Only worth it if can pick up a real cheap bricked HD2.
Full strip & rebuild is not too hard, most horrors are people stripping touch & LCD panels or those who strip the device like a hungry bear opening a jar of honey. A bit of knowledge & a delicate touch is a must on HD2.
I smashed mine a few months back sold it on xda for £120 and bought a mint condition used one for £190 on ebay

There are assembly and dis-assembly guides for HD2 if you search around...you can also get parts for cheap on eBay, So if you have lot of time you can repair it for yourself
Hi, i have braked my storm, and i need replacement parts
I Have (100% working):
Motherboard
Charging bootom part
all ribbon cables
midframe and housing
I need
LCD + Glass Digitizer
Where can I buy those parts? Or maybe there is someione interestedd ins selling storm with broken motherboard/buying new motherboard ? I've found LCD on aliexpress, but it's too expernsive. Also i dont know how difficult will it be to fuse glass to the LCD (LOCA/OCA glue??)
I too am trying to find a replacement LCD + Digitizer for a Wileyfox Storm. Any help on where to look would be great.
Can you give me the Aliexpress link as I couldn't see it on there?
Thanks
OK, wileyfox lcd thing for aliexpress expired. cant find it now i wish i could fix my storm or get a refund or something. I already disassembled my Storm, so warranty is void. But the screen is pretty easy to remove from chassy. It has 2 connectors 1 for LCD and 1 for digitizer
I'm sure I read that the display for the Storm was made by LG. Might you see if you can find a LG display with the same specification and connector arrangement?
I'm not sure if i can find it, but i'll do what i can. BTW my OneplusOne will come to me by saturday
My wife has broken the digitizer on her nearly new Storm. I would like to ask wileyfox to repair it (I would like to keep the warranty) but I cannot figure out how to contact them.
Does anyone know how to contact them?

I was able to contact them using the contact us details on the Wileyfox website.
Storm back cover
Hello. can anyone help me with Wileyfox Storm back cover ? My one is broken and i cant find it nowhere. Wileyfox official dealer cant help me. Maybe someone have faulty or broken Wileyfox Storm and can sell me by reasonable price all phone or only back cover. My email - [email protected]
PS: Sorry for my english
For anyone interested, I have a repair request with Wileyfox at the moment. I said the screen is damaged and the touchscreen no longer works. They said "It is not under warranty, but it will cost 60 / 90 pounds." So even if you aren't under warranty, you're not going to get much cheaper than that. Downside:
Please also be advised that our repair time takes 2 / 3 weeks since we receive the device.
However some delay might occur because we cannot directly control every phase of the repair process.

Hello,
I have managed to be an idiot once again and break the screen on my S8, it's cracked and doesn't respond to touch.
I need it replaced and I am considering all options.
I am thinking of buying a replacement screen together with a precision tool kit and doing the repair myself by following some videos on youtube.
Getting it repaired by a professional may be more trouble then it's worth.
Has anyone replaced the screen on this phone? I am looking for any tips or wise words. Is there a forum I can ask more detailed questions about the repair?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I have replaced in official service center for 280$ including service and new frame and after replacement it's still watter resistent i tested in pool
Thats why you get insurance when you buy a delicate phone like S8. I broke screen of my S8+ but thankfully had the insurance. Repair centre gave an estimate of 235$ but due to insurance i paid just 10$
There was no insurance in my country
I should have at least had a protective case on the phone. What can I say I was a bit of an idiot.
I am particularly worried about putting it together myself, mainly applying the adhesive correctly. I would really like the phone to stay water resistant.
FROM our China. to insurance i paid just 9$
It's really cheap.
