Well, eBay is probably the best place for you to search.

I know, I already looked on ebay but i didn't find any replacement, so i was asking here if anyone had any broken or unused terminal with a recyclable motherboard. However, I have now found a fresh insertion of a cheap motorola defy on my ebay, and according to what I wrote to him, let's see if I can award it :good:. Otherwise, I hold my demand on the topic.

[FIXED] Broken Screen - Advice Needed (ID)

Hi,
I got my Kaiser Screen broken. The phone still functioning, even touch still working/responding. There're cracks & part of LCD darkened & I worry it might get worse by time/use.
Question:
HTC no longer sell devices in my country. What is the reasonable price + shipping? Any reputable seller that ships to my country & payment method?
Thanks for tips.
Edit:
Got the screen replaced & working perfectly!
Use the 4 screw method, without opening the base, took me 20 mins only
Thanks to Mike Channon, Erwinpiero & many others that fixed themselves & posted on this forum!
Well i'd say eBay is your best bet and I wouldn't pay more than £30 (450,000rupiah) delivered for one. Plenty of people selling them from China, just make sure it has a digitiser, and it's the right model. Oh and pay by something secure like Paypal so you have something to fall back on incase its a bad sale.

Thanks.
I think that's reasonable approach, but I'm looking if any member have dealt with particular dealer that delivers .. something that minimize the risk (at least, it's the right item and got delivered). Yes, we can fall back, but I don't think the process is easy, and especially Pay Pal in ID has no legal vehicle, the site refers to SG. That's the reason I try not going blindly if there're any referrals.
In any case, I'll look around, and update when the screen is fixed ..
Useful links
To anyone looking for info, here're good ones (apart from Mike Channon's site)

(using this method, was what I did, and changed the screen in 20 mins)
And I learnt a lot from our own forum here:

Good luck to everyone.
I haven't replaced a screen on my xda stellar yet but i did have to replace one on my xda 2.
I purchased mine of ebay at a store. e-shop I believe it was called. I would recommend that you dismantle the phone first. There were 2 screens available for my xda 2 and the only way to see which one i needed was to see the connectors on the back of the screen. It may be the same case for the tytn 2.
Also make sure you are purchasing a screen with the digitiser attached. It is possible to replace the touchscreen part but believe me it's not worth the hassle.
Good luck
Thank you very much! Unlike TyTn / Dopod 838Pro, Kaiser screen is luckily pretty standard. The replacement was easy as I got the one complete set (screen & digitizer).
It's now fixed & working well.
That's great news!! I just came on to point you towards the service manual for disassembly (google htc kaiser service manual for anyone else who is interested).
I'm considering replacing the external housing of my stellar, it has seen better days! Having seen the procedure to take the pda apart i'm having second thoughts. Glad you found it easy to replace the screen it looks far worse than what i went through with my xda 2

DEAR
Please guide me to the "the 4 screw method, without opening the base" becuse i have a broken lcd and anew lcd from ebay (25$) and the tools, so everything is ready for action!!!
any instructions, photos, details, pic...etc. would be highly apreciated.
but I need an easy method to do that without dismantling the base and remove the "void" label.
Many thanks in advance

I need a keypad PCB

Hello,
I hope someone can help me.
My HD2 was overrun by a car and by strippping the phone I've damaged the flatcable of the front keypad.
Does somebody know where I can buy a new keypad?
I've found a new LCD and digitizer but no keypad...
Maybe someone knows something helpful to solve my problem...
I've searched on eBay and Google with no success...
Many regards
Crusoe

Nobody there?
this might be a dumb answer so i apoligize in advance
have you tried contacting HTC directly? they must have some places where parts can be obtained? authorized repair centres etc?
+1 for updates though, my keypad flexi seems alittle 'flaky' at best..
Yes I've ask HTC directly... They have a company who repair their broken devices...
I've ask them and they say: "Yes we have a keypad PCB and no we won't sell it to you... Send your phone to us. It will cost round about 150€. Without LCD and without digitizer."
Nice one...

Replacement touch screen and case?

Just found this while looking for a replacement for my touch screen on my Vogue. I've replaced my digitizer before but I've never replaced the whole case. Has anyone done this? Looks like a way to really make my Vogue new again. I might just buy it and try it out. Its $20 so no huge loss, eh? BTW, I'm in no way affiliated with the ebay seller. Just found it after a brief search.

If you decide to go that route the Elf Service Manual might be of some help.

That's good to know that exists. I've taken my Vogue apart several times before to the replace just the digitizer but never gone past that which I'll need to do in order to replace everything. The idea of a brand new feeling phone sure seems nice. And this time I'm putting on a screen protector.

[Q] Touchscreen

Hi guys!
Something happened to my HD2 T-Mobile US and now nothing that requires the touchscreen works. Is there anything to do about it? If I need to replace the touchscreen, how much would that cost? Thanks.

You could try a hard reset or reflashing it but I doubt these would work.
Your best bet is probably to return it to stock and try for a warranty claim if possible.

[Q] HD2 Mobo/board

Any one know where I can buy an HTC HD2 Motherboard, because my HD2 died, its trying to power on but only vibrates shortly (instead of long vibrate and powering on)... I assume its a motherboard problem so I decided to fix it but I can't seem to find on ebay, maybe I am searching wrong, I am searching for HD2 Motherboard...
Do you have any URL's or an online store for parts please?
It would be really helpful, or an international service that fixes/repairs smart phones would be ok too...
Thanks for now
Insisting on ebay could lead you to success, finally...
Best bet might be finding one on somewhere like eBay where the screens are broken.. just a thought
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda app-developers app

I had that thought too... And after 1 week of searching I found a seller who has a lot of parts on bid as a bundle... I will give it a try...
However my post was to try to find an online shop that sells hd2 parts and has motherboards in stock...
thanks anyway...
Please, can you give me a direct link to that seller?
Thank you

there ya go, was after one my self, but still a bit pricy, looking out for a second had one myself, one problem with my main board is the memory card reader has come of and so have the tracers,
Is there any way to test a main board is dead without having another HD2 to try it in, any one got any methods to try and bring it back to life, like sticking it in the oven the freezer the microwave (only kidding about the microwave)
