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.

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

Please read carefully. The two links I provided contain that information.
I know there is the written guide already, but I'm those type of people that likes to have a video of these type of thing, so I figured I'd make one.
I looked at the written guide and it goes a step further than my video, I pretty much stop when I reach the camera. If you still need the written guide, here you go:

Without Further ado, Here's the video:
If you need assitance after the LCD, Here's the rest of the process
Again, if any questions arise, please let them be known :]

Hey Guys,
Added another video with further disassembly instruction to the first post. In case anyone needs help taking out the LCD and digitizer.
Hope it helps!
take care
Digitizer
So, I cracked the glass on the housing of my X10 and was taking it apart to see if the LCD was okay. In the process of doing this i got to the fron housing/digitizer and from the guide that I read the digitizer is glued/double sided taped to the fron housing glass...anyway the guide said to heat the glass/digitizer to make removing it easier (so you dont have to buy another one) and while i was peeling it off, I ripped the ribbon cable for the digitizer. Now, I am looking on eBay for a white housing and black digitizer but a few of these auctions have a lens that is black with the white housing which is a little confusing to me now. So is the digitizer clear and on the back of this so called lens or what?
White Housing w/Black Lens
Black Digitizer
White Digitizer
So you think the digitizer is glued to the "lens" and nobody really goes through the trouble to remove them and just resell them as a black/white digitizer or is there a digitizer that you can just buy that would be clear or something that you would glue to the lens...

There is a warranty stamp? I dismantled mine at one point and they took it back... the only thing the look for is the water damaged sticker

yeah there is definitely no warranty stamp, and even if it did, once your warranty is over, it would be much cheaper just to buy the part and fix it yourself rather than pay someone to repair it.
now i can change my scratch screen thnkz

Thank you very much....life saver!!
Don't get too excited, as the screen is smashed and USB port on bottom of phone is missing, but yuh never know, someone might need some parts from inside.....
like vibrate, gps unit, battery cover, back side of case etc etc etc.
Reason being, I sold my working HD2 and bought a Desire HD and am taking delivery of it tommorow...got to be done, love the HD2, but I seem to be plagued with problems with the old.....it gets warm and freezes, gps it freezes etc etc.
Gagging for an Android native phone, and used my friends Desire HD the last week and it's AWESOME.
Sooo, still got my first HD2 which has been in draw for months, screen gone etc....know I can make a small bit of cash by selling it on Ebay, but would rather donate it to someone on here, as this forum been a home to me the last 12 months or so (lol)
anyway, let me know what parts yuh want off it and they are yours
Doubt any Devs want it, but if they do, they get first choice...as without them, I woulda been stuck in Windows mobile hell!!
Anyway, cheers Devs...much appreciated for all your hard work.
cheers

scratch this I'm a numpty
Mine got cut on accident when i was changing my setup around so i have to buy another one. Its a real small dude, thats all i know. Anyone know where i can get one for >5$ maybe a little more?
Thanks
I don't know about finding one for that cheap, but it's the same one as for the xoom I think. Might make it easier for you to find.
thanks i found it here, cant tell if its the right one or not.
A used one is 8$ so its not that bad...
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Trav...RWD4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1316391201&sr=8-4
Unfortunately, the only place you can get them is directly from Motorola. The cost is $29.95. I'm sorry but I can not find the email from Moto with the direct link. But if you initiate i.m. conversation they can send you the same email they sent me to order it.
the wire got cut? thats an easy fix just get some shrink tubing from homedepot and reattach the wire.

If it was cut, a little bit of tape and enough knowledge to tell color diffrences and you can use your old one

Hi,
My S Pen started to come apart yesterday (the silver end from the main body), then today when i went to pull it out only the silver bit came out and it won't go back together.
I rang Samsung to try and get a replacement under warranty but they said as its an accessory i would have to buy a new one.
Does this sounds right? Surely the S Pen is more than an accessory and should be replaced under warranty as it has broken after 7 days of normal use

I'd return the phone for a replacement from where you bought it
I've got in contact with them. Only thing is i really don't want the hassle of flashing back to a stock rom and then returning it all the way back to Amazon.de and waiting for a replacement.
I had to have a replacement sent in the first place as the first one went 'missing'during delivery
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Wow! That's bad luck!
Mine came apart on the first day after trying to grab it from the back, but after a while managed to put it back together. Takes some time and found slowly twisting it until the button becomes operable works best. But have to line up the indent before twisting...maybe yours still can be saved.

I had a similar issue with the Dell x51v PDA a few years back, within a couple of weeks the stylus broke, so contacted Dell who insisted I would have to buy a new one, and they only sell in sets of 3 at £20 or so. I found on a forum that others had had similar problems and Dell USA had replaced for free, so I called back to Dell support and forwarded them links to those same posts and suddenly the response changed, and I got a free stylus 3-pack sent to me.
They were trying to fob me off with "we quality check every item" and such like, but as I explained to them, their process would never be doing full quality checks on every single, individual stylus manufactured, QA is usually sampled a few per batch or it would massively delay production.
Since it sounds like you are not alone with broke stylus problems, maybe all contact Samsung and reference each other and see if they will play ball and replace them for you

i have the same prob as the OP, but i dont know how to get the main part of the s pen out of the note!
where on earth can i buy a new s-pen? mines the white one too, but i think id settle for black
having trouble finding a replacement anywhere. I see places listing the official s-pen holder which includes a spare s-pen but no one has any stock.
Looks like the s pen is not so good quality. Im sure going to look after mine carefully ;(

I got a toshiba tablet pen a couple of weeks ago, it works a treat and it's nicer to write with a full size pen...
I don't have enough posts here to send a link, but if you search amazon uk for B000FG68FA it should work.
Also, the eraser on the other end of the pen works.
Same same,
White 9220.. and i thought it was because i have a Chinese one lol.....
push the glass and never saw the back of the pen fly that high
Made sure that the position is correct so it still worked on the note.... then lot of 3 second super glue....
now i can relax and push the pen thru my glass
