You mean "Look I'M selling this"

No, mine is not for sale.
I just saw it and post it here... I find interesting that someone is trading the phone for a PSP.

That no-punctuation text block in the listing makes my brain explode.

The seller days it turns on. But the touch screen is not working.
Maybe a bad rooting? What do you guys think?

Can be, I had my touchscreen not working when i flashed a 800mv kernel from intersect raven (test build i suppose its in his mediafire directory)
But if he had done something like that he also would know how to fix it.
Just my though

i'd be careful it might be the broken one i sold to someone in Florida on ebay. he bought it knowing it had a broken touchscreen and a really jacked up sim card socket. i bought it off someone else on e-bay to fix it and that guy failed to report that it had damage from the sim socket being pryed on by a screw driver. i got a partial refund from the seller and sold it for less than i paid for it but ended up breaking even due to the partial refund i got from the original seller.
if your interested in this phone have the guy take a photo of the back of the phone if there is a dent/damage to the metal loop on the back of the phone on the right side where the sim socket it its the same phone i had.

OK cool I see if I can get him to send me a pic.

Do you know the cheapest Repair for a cracked HD2 screen?

Does anyone know the cheapest way to get a cracked screen on the HD2 fixed? I called HTC but 120$ is way too much.

Does it still work? I cracked the glass on mine about 5 months ago,, three strips of sellotape, job done. With the added bonus that since it already looks battered,I'm no longer so delicate with it, hehe.
the money a saved will go towards a new hd2 in a few months.

There are some sites on Ebay listing $99.

120 is what I paid through T-Mobile insurance to get a new hd2,when I cracked mine... could be worst you could have dropped it in a toilet like I did w phone #3. got t out right away no damage to water sticker and sent it back for a free one. said it just stopped working after a serious briking and a few other incidents I'm on my 5th hd2 and I've only paid 180$ (next day shipping) thanx T-Mobile

I fixed this hd2 I am using with a digitizer I ordered from eBay its some work gotta be chill and good with a heat gun and screw driver to remove the glass w/o breaking or scratching the screen as it is stuck on with some 3m adhesive make sure you get a us or whereever you are seller or it will take a bit and make sure it comes with that 2 sided tape glue stuff usually looks like a pink piece of paper

Looking for used / cheap parts

Trying to find a replacement amoled/digitizer. Was on guy selling entire to halves of the epic for like 40 (used) but I went to go buy one today and he's sold out... figures.
If anyone sees any along their travels post here please?
Thanks epic community!

You tried eBay? I have seen digitizers on sale there before. Sometimes there are broken phones as well you may be able to pull the digitizer off.
Also try Craigslist as well. Sometimes I see ads for broken phone or phones for parts as well.

I suggest finding one with a bad esn and then either repair the damage or meid

What to do with cracked Nexus?

So I bought my girlfriend a N7, she had it for almost a month before her dog decided to chew on it. It had a case on it but the screen got a small hairline crack and so the digitizer is toast. She was heart broken so I ended up splitting the cost of a new 16gb N7 with her, and she's sending me her old one.
So what should I do with it? I have $125 into it, maybe I can find a N7 with bad hardware and swap screens? Or wait to find a replacement screen for cheap enough and fix it? Use it with a mouse and keyboard? Sell it? She kept it in good condition so the only cosmetic issue from the cracked screen is a teeny scratch on the plastic bezel.

Maybe sell it for parts?
If you do I call dibs on the speaker since I just blew mine the other day :/
Sorry I'm not more help tho

Absolutely. Everyone who drives a car over their Nexus really deserves a new one at no cost to them.
Probably a new car too. Just in case the tablet damaged the tyres.

Will it blend?

Fix it yourself

The replacement screens on that site are used, which I guess is good because they'll be the same as from Asus but $129, sheesh. I think I'll just wait for someone to fry their N7 or brick it and buy theirs for parts. Maybe I'll just wait for the cost of the screen to come down, it's a 16gb model so if I could find one for less then a $100 it would be worth it. I already have one so I'll probably end up giving it to my sister once it's working.

would you sell it? if so what for? There are a few of us around that are working on trying to get an OTG setup internal that might be able to put it to use.

[Q] Best way to repair water damaged mic?

Unexpectedly got soaked with seawater on vacation with my nexus in my pocket. First of all, out of all of us two cameras, a Samsung midrange android phone, and one of those brick like old Nokia phones all were casualties - only my nexus 4 survived. I think that is pretty impressive.
anyway, it didn't make it through unscathed. The mic does not work and also the gyroscope is pretty wonky. everything else appears intact.
as this was water damage I'm assuming no warranty will cover it. my question is what's the best option at this point and how much is it going to cost?
send it to Google / LG for repair? Try one of these cell phone stores that claim they can repair broken phones? Try and find the part and fix it myself? or just buy a new phone? what's going to be the cheapest?

I would recommend to sell it. The phone is water damaged. Even if you send it to LG or take it to shop to repair mic or gyroscope; other problems will appear sooner or later.

Yep, I'd say get a little bit more money and just get a new one. Keep the old one as a paperweight or something. hahaha

I figured that's probably the best option. Is there no way to tinker around and try and replace the mic with parts that are available on eBay or something until I get together enough cash for another nexus?

There is. Just follow
and replace as necessary. Not sure how long the parts will last. There is a chance that the motherboard would just burn off one day.

My mic has failed too (as well as a portion of my digitizer ugh) and I have decided to order a mic from ebay for $15, I've already opened the N4 up and its super easy to replace so I would say replace it and while your in there look for any corrosion (will look white and chalky) and clean it off with a q-tip and 99% isopropyl alcohol

Water damaged MIC, ordered replacement usb charge port from ebay for £12. Using the video posted, I was able to successfully replaced my fault MIC, phone is working as per normal.

I ordered one from eBay but it looks different from the original. You guys think I should install or send it back? This one has two antenna connections but the original only has one.
