Hi, I never posted in this area of XDA before(have a Dash 3g that started acting funny, I want to get another phone) I might have a chance to buy Droid 2, but it has a cracked glass screen, but the owner says it works, the phone is very cheap(not close to 100 dollars), would it be worth buying it and i replace the screen either by trying to do it myself or paying for a repair?
This is hard to answer. How comfortable are you with changing a screen? I'm not, so I'd pass. I got my Droid on Craigslist for $150 in immaculate condition. Perhaps you should keep looking, but it's your call.

I'll be looking, but i don't have the money to spend 150 right now. If i bought it and try to fix it myself i might just have to be slow and take my time. Thanks for the reply.
Yeah, don't buy one with a cracked screen. Just keep looking around.

To fix the screen, you'll have to pretty much take the entire phone apart.
And it's very easy to damage parts if you're not careful. Plus, there's the cost of the replacement glass (digitizer). It might not be worth it for the small savings, if any, after you put the work into it or pay someone else to.
yeah, i think in the end, its going to cost you more to repair it than to simply buy a used one on craigslist or something.
Thanks for the responses, I didn't buy it.

hey guys i dropped my phone and the screen ended up cracking but you could still see the display. after about a week or so you can no longer see the display at all. i noticed this when a call came in and i heard it ring but the screen was black. instead of having insurance replace it for $150, do i have a cheaper option? can i buy the parts say via ebay? i believe its a digitizer i need? thanks in advance.
You could try to fix it yourself but its pretty tricky. I tried replacing a screen one time and snipped one little wire by accident and it coated me the phone. Unless you really know what your doing it might be a good idea just to get the replacement. Good luck!

Go to these guys, they have anything and everything you'll ever need to repair or replace broken parts for phones and they are cheaper and faster than messing with EBAY Plus they have disassemble videos on every phone out there, Especially the Vibrant T-959 it takes the guess work out of it!! Get yourself, some small Phillips screwdrivers and a couple of the hardest guitar picks you can find and you'll be able to do anything with the vibrant you want to, unless your NOT COORDINATED with your hands! Note: One more thing, make sure you register your new account as a cell phone repair business, or they will ban your application!!
Here's the Link: http://www.globaldirectparts.com/ Good luck, and hope this helps!!
Are you with T-Mobile? If so it's worth a shot to call them, I think the out of warranty fee is $90, which would be cracked screen, water damage etc. They may or may not go for it but be nice and maybe they will.

OK, I know its a long shot, but does anyone have a hd2 screen they would like to sell, maybe one from a bricked phone? I dont have a lot of cash which is the reason I'm not buying a new one. I will happily pay postage and a little something for you or a donation to a charity of your choice - I was thinking around the £25 mark (its all I can afford really ).
I'm trying to get another 12 months from my hd2 before I upgrade to a One-X (depending on reviews )

I would buy it new so I know that the digitizer will work... just to be on the safe side... there's a good chance digitizer and/lcd screen will break during removal process unless you have experience removing digitizer then go for it.

I just can't bring myself to spend almost £100 for a new one - I'm quite confident I could do the job.
Maybe I should just go for one of the new quad core phones and say goodbye to the hd2, but I wanted to keep it as a second phone, I like the hd2 so much I have been using it with a badly cracked screen for almost a year and have the scars on my thumb to prove it

Instead of repairing and risking the damage... why not buy a used one and sell that one as part... I'm sure you'll make some money back to cover for the new one... its just options that I'm giving you...

:crying:So my girlfriend managed to drop my beautiful white s3 and now i wanna drop her ass. somehow she managed to break it the same day i rooted it and started to truly enjoy it.
Screen cracked at the top corner now theres a spider crack all over the top of the screen with a couple of cracks that run down to the middle phone still works, but the crack is killing me on the inside hehe. Now funny part is i bought the defender for it the day i bought it cause i knew it was too weak to handle a hard drop, and i've been checking the mail for it for 2 weeks now. then she comes and does that just the day before it arrived. After crying inside a while and just wanting to punch someone i managed to start looking at options.
checked online and the parts cost $240-$290, bell and best buy can fix it by it'll cost at least $325. I also bought the best buy protection plan (12.99/month). am thinking I should be able to find some cheap non-samsung parts for much cheaper than that, replace the screen and give it to best buy for an exchange as long as something is wrong with it (not sure wt though )

Only thing I could think of is they might do it different over there in Canada. I think that is where the OP is from.
Just posted about this in the other cracked screen thread...
"Missed my damn pocket on Saturday night, and dropped mine on the garage floor. Got a small crack about as wide a finger nail from the right side of the ear piece curving up to the edge. Which is strange, cause the only other mark on the phone is a small scuff at the bottom of the back cover. But, I have BB insurance, so its in being fixed with no deductible! I've dropped my epic a few times in the last year, and not scratch on the screen. Makes me wonder what they changed in the formula from og gorilla glass to gorilla glass 2. 
As much as I don't want to add all the bulk to it, the Otterbox Defender, or Trident Kraken may be in its future...

not sure how you guys manage your finances, but if there is a fee, shouldn't see be paying for it?
If I dropped my girl's laptop, phone, crashed her car (or w/e) and we weren't pretty much married, I would cover it to get whatever it is fixed.
I dropped my friend's motorcycle helmet while handing it to him several years ago. he didn't have a good grip and as I passed it, it slipped into his hand from mine and fell to the concrete floor. it was still intact, but had nice bruising from the concrete. I apologized and got him a new one within a week...

The PEP from Best Buy in Canada is different than the one in the US. It does not cover physical damage, liquid damage, basically they call it "stupidity". I'm not calling it that, that's how they word it. PEP from Best Buy only extends the manufacturer's warranty. So instead of getting refurbs, you get brand new replacements. And you can pick a different phone if you want. I posted in another thread indicating that no carrier or 3rd party store in Canada offers insurance anymore. At least not that I'm aware of. It sucks because Best Buy charges $12.99 + taxes per month for the PEP. I have 2 PEP's from Best Buy. On one of my PEP's, I already got 3 brand new replacement phones. On my
2nd one I got one brand new replacement in which I chose a different model.
So both already paid itself.

Wow I can't imagine trying to sell that to customers. It's already hard enough trying to get people to get the 9.99 plan that replaces the phone with no deductible. Customers say "if I break the phone I'll buy a new one for 200, not realizing the phone is $650.

If you wanna be technical about it then she's my fiance... I'd expect her to pay otherwise for sure lol... I guess a broken 4.8" screen makes you a bit bitter lol...
Yea best buy Canada is another story they do not cover physical or water damage... Am gonna try calling visa today to see if there is any insurance that my purchase can be covered under... But after reading online about this am no longer hopeful for anything....
Next time buy the case before even thinking of buying the phone... And do not trust a girl with a delicate thing like your phone...

Damn that sucks! I hope your able to get a new one some how. I know buying it out right is just a lot! Let us know how it turns out for you.
Good luck!
So, it happened to me. Just my luck.
Was at university walking and the phone slipped from my hand onto the floor. It seemed to have survived that fairly well. Then it slid off the stairs (no barrier at the edge of the staircase going up my university) and fell about 8-10 feet onto the stair case below. Screen is ruined and unresponsive.
The phone is rooted and has an unlocked bootloader so I know this voids the warranty but I can lock the bootloader again and flash the phone back to the stock rom via cwm.
I bought the phone from Carphone Warehouse for £400 back in December because I couldn't wait and now I'm left with a brick. I need a phone to handle uni life and contact my fianceé in the States. I don't really want to have to spend money I don't have on a replacement N4 so is there anything I can do guys?
Any help at all will be extremely appreciated.
(I'd post a link to an image of the screen but cannot do so yet).
Thanks
Sorry to hear that, however the only option I think would've been better if you had phone insurance and it would replace your damaged phone and it would cost like 5 pounds a month. On the other hand maybe you can send it to Carphonewarehouse and see what the estimate is to get it repaired. Don't think rooted or not makes much difference in this situation.
Anyway good luck and hope you find some solution

The only cheap way is to repair it yourself. If the mainboard is ok, get a new front and back panel. From the teardown I've seen of the Nexus 4, it doesn't seem that difficult. I'm sure there is a vid on youtube you can use as guide. If you can't do it yourself, a new phone seems to be the only option. At least it will be cheaper this time... Did you have a case on it when it dropped?

See that seems doable but the only problem is is the (is it aluminium?) that goes around the phone also got dented as it fell. This is even worse considering I actually DID have a case on it. I was using the Ringke Slim case. If anybody is using this case I highly recommend them to rethink their purchase because even though the phone hit the floor side on, it didn't protect it. Imagine if it hit face down. I have another generic 'S' silicone case from eBay and that would have done a far better job at protecting the sides. Shoulda, woulda, coulda eh?
Im wondering if LG's manufacture warranty will work in my favour at all? I just don't have the funds to replace the phone comfortably but that's the only option I see unfortunately.
I don't think you'll have any luck with warranty repair. Sorry about your phone though.

I disagree. The only cheap way to do it is via insurance, 50 quid excess or whatever is a lot cheaper than the 150 pound screen is going to cost.
So I dropped my phone at Whataburger today and it fell facedown and the whole screen has like hairline cracks (but no bumps whatsoever). I want to exchange it because of my damn OCD, it just bothers me. Is there a way to take it to T-Mobile and say that something is defective and get a free replacement since I have warrenty? I was thinking of saying that I was putting on an Otterbox case, and when I tried to take it off, the phone screen cracked...or something along those lines. I was googling and I read that I had to pay up to $199 to replace the screen from Samsung directly. Any other options? I'm a broke college student barley making it and I don't want to make my mom pay for it. Right now I'm on the phone with my mom, and I keep on hearing the screen crack, and I'm afraid the screen is just gonna shatter at any moment, or while it's in my pocket

What is wrong with you, dude? Do you really think T-Mobile would even buy your Otterbox excuse? Stop trying to scam people and own up to your own mistakes.
I don't think they will cover for it even if you have warranty since it's physical damage. If you have insurance then that will be a different story. If I were you, I'll just find a local store to try and replace it. If not, probably have to suck it up with a protector.
Sorry this happened to you, mistakes happens.

How long have you had the phone for? If it has been less than 30 days, you can still purchase squaretrade. If you used an amex card to purchase it in the past 90 days, you could apply for purchase protection through them.
Also FYI, the cost of screen replacement from Samsung is $269.xx. Source: I cracked my screen too . Thankfully I already had squaretrade, so my out of pocket was $99.
I wanted a faster to phone to improve my studies....said no one ever.
Give me a break....you can get a part-time job and earn some cash and buy a new phone or repair it.
Filing an insurance claim would probably be the cheapest, legitimate way of getting it fixed.

Thank you for actually typing out a reply that will help me out unlike some others here. I've had the phone since launch day.

(Because legitametly, I've been having problems with the speaker, and the phone has been messing up quite a bit way before I dropped it). I think they should supply a refurbished phone, no? That is way to expensive to get the screen replaced by the way...but it's worth it.

Clear nail polish if they really are micro cracks it should fill them in and not brake the phone. If the cracks are all the way through or huge it won't help as much though. Also it's only 200 to get the screen fixed. Go get a bar tending job you will make that money in one night. Grow up don't ask your mom for money, or try to rip off tmobile

If you have insurance on your phone, you have to contact the insurance company.
I'm on the original Jump program, so it's part of Jump, for me. There's usually a deductible though.
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers mobile app
Cracked screen through insurance is 175, girlfriend dropped hers. If you didn't have the cracks, you could of called t-mobile and did a exchange where they would send you a refurb first and return your phone after receiving the refurb. If you this with your current phone, they will find out and charge your account so don't try it.
My girlfriend did the same, her crappy Caseology case did nothing but look pretty.
T-Mobile insurance the deductible is 175 for the S7E.

I don't know if the store would side with you on that (claiming that there were other problems before the screen cracked). Even then, perhaps they would try fixing those other problems without addressing the cracked screen. Bottom line, a cracked screen is not covered under the standard Samsung warranty so you'll have to pay to get that fixed either way. Good luck :good:
