[Q] Defy LCD broken, need replacement - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
i need a new LCD Display. The glass is ok, there are just a bunch of pixel on the left upper side on the screen which are totally broken.
It falled (sorry for my englisch) a few days ago from 1m on the left upper side of the Phone itself.
Well i already looked on ebay.de and i saw some pieces, but the price range is kinda a bit disturbing. I really dont know which replacement to buy.
So my question is: Does anyone have ordered a replacement from ebay? And if yes, which Saler did you choose? Hows the quality, etc.
Thx in advance

IT FELL BADLY !! :(

Hey guys,
My prohpet survived a fall from aprox 1,5 M hight.
However, the front cover got damaged (bent) a little so that the device is a litle split open on one side. If the display is on, light is visible from the sides. Now i am scared that raindrops will get inside.
Is it possible to buy a new front cover? how about installing it?
AND, how do I know if something happend to my Prophet? I mean in terms of hardware, it still functions allright, the display is okay too.
Do i have to worry?
If it works it works

I had seen a UK seller for replacement case on Ebay, but cannot find it anymore. However, there are plenty of sellers there for silicone and metal jackets/cases for the Prophet (search as "Neo", the O2 branding).

www.cnn.cn for your Prophet housing. It'll cost you but it is a full OEM housing. It says it is for the Dopod 818Pro but the picture shows a Qtek S200 housing. Either way it will work for any Prophet.

Hd screen broked... any suggestion ?

Hi all,
I just broke the screen of the hd
the lcd is ok also the touch screen on top is ok
what is broken is the layer of glass/plastic between the lcd and the touch screen....
any suggestion ?
what htc sell as spare parts?
Thanks in advance
If you have warranty try to apply it, if not use original HTC replacements, just google it
good luck,
I've see what you need on ebay, it cost 85 euros...
the part u broken is glass maden! 85€ it's a good price, if u send the device to htc in order to be repaired, 85€ it will be just a happy dream.
wich part exactly do i need ?
i was looking at the HTC_Blackstone_Service_Manual and i see in the Disassembling procedure that the screen come together with the front cover
but i am not sure.
thanks for helping
Hope you had some cover, we had a similiar thread like this a few weeks ago i got my HD insured soon after, for £6 a month with orange, cant afford to folk out £100+ pound if that happens to my HD. by the way how did that happen was much force needed?
i didn't notice,
i was surprise Very surprise
Spicefabry, did you find a good replacement?
Mine broke too two days ago
It start to ring and vibrate and felt from the table.
HTC service told me the glass come with display and they have to change both. For around 220Euros
And this is almost half of the price of a new HD

Dropped my HD..

so the day finally arrived, i dropped my HD while wasted in a bar..
the damage is not so bad in my opinion. digitizer and lcd work perfectly! though the bezel is a little scratched near the stylus storage.. so my question is if its possible to replace ONLY the bezel, as according to my research, i found out that the bezel/digitizer/lcd is sold as one component and to replace just the bezel, well i gotta get the whole thing, thus costing about half of the phone
any ideas out there? or some help?? would be greatly appreciated as i wish to only replace the bezel (by myself if it can be done) as i read the service manual and apparently to remove the bezel alone is apparently quite a mission..
Hi.
why dont you replace te entire housing.You can find it on ebay for 25 euros.
And it will be like new?

The digitizer and bezel isn't expensive if that's your only option.

New HD2 Display Case?

Hello guys,
today my hd2 fell on the floor and the display cracked. the lcd and touchscreen are still working fine, even in the area where its cracked.
Is there a chance just to replace only the plastic case on the lcd? Or do i have to completly renew it?
Thanks!
Nope, sorry.
There's no plastic display on the HTC, nor anything plastic. The LCD is soldered to the digitizer and normally both should be replaced. They cost around 100$, and the replacement is about 200$ in the HTC center. You do the math, it's the price for a sec hand HD2. Otherwise, you can buy and change the digitizer (costs around 50$). But this is a very delicate operation to do by our own -you have to cut the LCD from the cracked digitizer and do many other things. As someone have said for some other reason "it is an easy operation, but if you have no experience in soldering, do not try to learn it on your laptop motherboard". So, your choice is between repairing it in HTC for 200$ and "repairing" it some other service for 100$, with questionable quality and voiding your warranty.
As you may guess, I have walked that road already. My HD2 was 1 week old. After some sleepless nights (as I was wondering what to do AND because the "perfectly working cracked screen" had cut my fingers) I sold it 100-120€ under the second hand market price and found a new one. That's also my advice to you. I.e. the first one. The second one is to buy a silicon cover for your next HD2.

Touchscreen broken : any experience with replacements ?

Hi,
First i am sorry if there is already a topic like this one but i was unable to find it. Feel free to just point at it and be approprately mean with me.
My N4 fell on the back and the touchscreen does not respond correctly anymore (a 2cm high band in the middle is unresponsive, jsut where i should validate my pin code). I would like to know if you know fair prices, high quality screen replacements. The original part from LG is 120 EUR according to my local retailer, but i see replacements on amazon and ebay around 50 eur. I know i could replace the touchscreen only but it seems very risky, so i'd prefer to replace the whole screen instead.
Thanks !

The two ebay screens I've ordered were both blems with air bubbles trapped in the film. They worked though. I've got pictures of them somewhere.
So I just bought and installed this one a week ago:
etradesupply dot com/oem-lg-nexus-4-e960-lcd-screen-and-digitizer-assembly-with-front-housing.html
And it was worth every penny. My digitizer had cracked in the bottom corner, but was fully functional. What I didn't realize was how scratched up the glass was and how much the oleophobic coating had worn off. The new screen, digitizer, and frame from etradesupply was perfect. No bubbles, the glass was curved on the sides, and it is just as responsive as the stock screen. I was really worried about it not being up to OEM standard. The installation was very easy. I have read some replacements not having a filter over the LED and light bleeds out, but this one has the filter. 5 stars, would buy again. I did alot of research before hand, and have heard many horror stories of Ebay replacements, but this one really worked out well.
