ok so i managed to get a tiny crack on my phone screen in the top right corner and iv only just got the phone recently so although iv changed my insurance over to this phone, because i changed the insurance after they sent it out to me i think the lady said i have to go to a shop for them to look at and inspect for insurance prposes. but if they notice the little crack i could end up between a rock and a hard place because phone companies as a rule are rubbishy people, especially with regards to insurance. does anyone here know of a good reliable trustworthy site for replacement screens for xperia play in the uk as my google searches and ebays have all come up with majorily american or other non uk countries. also i would like to know where i can learn about disassembling the phone to replace the screen manually myself and my searches have not returned anything that i found especially useful
regards
Hi guys I haven't been able to find any information about this on the Sony site, google, or on here.
My mate dropped his IPhone onto my Xperia Play my screen is demolished (very poorly built imo).
Would love to repair or replace the screen rather then buying a new unit any help would be greatly appreciated.
..... Poorly made??? There are a lot of people with broken iphone screens from dropping too.. What were you expecting? Titanium screens? There are second hand mobile phone stores that repairs screens.

I'm just having a cry after loosing my xperia after only a week.

chinese rules!
good luck
I'm in Melbourne,
Been ringing a few places none of them have anything for the Xperia Play.
Do sony have any repair centres?
A few digitisers listed on ebay if you want to diy
Get your m8 to fix it, as its his fault I'm guessing :-?
Yeah he'll be paying for it, but still trying to locate how and where to fix.
I think if I tried diy I'll end up with alot more broken then just the screen.
What about posting it to Sony for a fix ?

That sucks man, I have repaired many screens on phones, I own a play and looking at deconstruction its easier then a HD2... Buy a digitiser off ebay and DIY if you fail you could post it to me in Canberra and ill finish the job.
to DIY it appears to remove screws from back around battery etc, split that part, remove ribbons and main board, remove screen connector ribbon.
disconnect Rail screws
4 screws on back of screen, remove these split screen open.
I have just smashed my screen here on my XP in the UK. Not happy. Need somewhere to fix it. Don't fancy taking it apart.
Sony's "official" repair place in Melbourne is Fonebiz.
Took me about 20 rings before anyone answered the phone, they are unsure if they can replace/fix it or when they will have stock to do so, they are unsure of the price but they want 30 upfront for something that isnt guaranteed and I'll have the option to go through with it once they complete the "quote".
Not really happy with the above, even though I'm not going to be paying for the repair as it was my mate that smashed my screen, I was hoping for something more "official" then some random mobile phone repair company.

Hi my battery cover panel is in very bad status....
So if someone buy REALY ORIGINAL back cover, please give me the link to buy it
Thanks....
you have Mail....MoRe
Quick & easy . . .
Um, bought one this week for used HD2 I also just bought.
dubdubdub.eebay dot com - search for HD2 battery cover
You're welcome
yea ebay is the best place for stuff like that. i found 1 on there for around $5 that says oem/t-mobile. find it here. I haven't recieved it yet so i cant say 100% that it is but from what i can gather it looks oem. besides if its not i can always return it & get my money back since it would be listed wrong. ebay/paypal coveres you if sellers mislead or lie in they're listings.
i bought a extra one because i seen a post here on ebay that i thought was rather cool. i know its off subject a little but maybe check it out. you can find it here.
I've got a spare where are you?

Check this site. But the accessories are not official...

Hello guys , my phone is getting freezed after some time of using (45 min) , the Tech's said that this is overheating of the motherboard
So any idea from where can i get new one?
Thanks in advance...

You can find them usually on Ebay and Amazon. I would use what ever search provider (Google, Bing, Yahoo etc..) to do a search for "HTC HD2 motherboard". Pick out a site that has good site reviews if possible as well as good prices. A quick search yeilded dozens of sites that sold HD2 motherboards.
can somebody help me for my HD2?
two days befor it fall and after that my HD2 working with very low speed.
for example, it will take 10 minutes for boot from power on until sense completly load.

Are you saying you dropped the phone and now since its been dropped you have very slow load times?
Is you phone rooted with a custom sense rom?
Do you still have a warranty on the phone?
no the rom version is official and my phone warranty expired
So you noticed it after you dropped it?
Have you tried to turn off your phone and turn it back on? I know that seems kind of stupid but it does fix some small problems from time to time.
Sorry to say but there wouldn't be much you could do for it that i know of. The very best advice i could give you would be to open your own thread about your problem and put this infomation in there. This thread is about motherboards so you wont get as much help as of you opened your own. This way a lot more people will see this and with the more people that see's it maybe someone comes across it and has had that problem before and can offer a solution if one.
Thanks for your advice.
i will open a new topic.

I'm not so sure. I can't find any myself, but it maybe a firewall problem or something. What I find is typically they are "Motherboard Flex Cable Ribbon". Can't find "motherboard" only. I've contacted some sites, but they say no motherboard/main board at all.
If you have come up with a "motherboard" only (at a reasonable price), please provide link. That would be very helpful as I'm after one as well.
You can find a HD2 from Amazon or Ebay that has a cracked screen or something along those lines thats still working and get the motherboard off that phone. when i did a search earlier i seen two sites but i'm unable to find them now. one site you had to be signed in so you might need an account but i'll try and find the other and report back.
Guys please provide me a link if you find a motherboard , i found one on
Gadgetsaving & Ebay
but i am afraid that when i get them i get another problem with them so please any advice ?
Thanks in advance...
$120 seems pretty high. As i said above, you can find a used model off ebay thats still working for the same price. Then you would have more parts you can use off that phone.
You really need to know what your doing during the install process though so if you dont, send it out to someone that does. I seen a phone with a cracked screen but that was
100% working order sell on ebay for $55 just yesterday. Plus if you have problems with the motherboard/phone you do buy off ebay you can always ask to return it. If they
wont accept a return you can then file a claim through ebay stating the phone/motherboard wasn't as described to have ebay force the seller to refund you the money once
you return it. In some cases you can even get a return shipping label emailed to you so you wont be charged the shipping back to the seller.

HI,
I'm looking for a good community of phone repair since a long time but I can't get to find a good one.
i'm talking about physical repair. Like the screen or the audio jack, things like that. How to do it and mostly where to buy trusted parts.
I'm repairing phone since a couple of years now and I always take the cheapest part on ebay and most of the time, it work perfectly but I'm interested to heard about other people who are not cheap chinese part reseller themselves I you know what I mean.
So is there such a sub forum on xda for this or somewhere else?
Thx a lot

I have not personally repaired a phone, but I know a lot of people that go to you tube and look up how to repair phones. You can contact the manufacturer to see if they can sell you the parts, you will know for sure that the part isn't a cheap knock off. Or you can try the eBay and amazon reviews for more info on the products.

I actually repair devices for a living and our trusted supplier for almost everything is www.mobilesentrix.com or another decent one is gadgetfix.com. You get what you pay for when it comes to cheap parts. Most will be faulty when you get them, or shortly thereafter. When buying from Ebay, always look for a top rated seller with a good return policy.
Edit:
There's a member led section for device repair here:
