Hi,
Despite how careful I was with it, I've managed to drop my samsung galaxy s4 and of course crack the screen in two places. Not only this but the lcd screen itself is blackened out in places and won't work.
How much would it cost to have it repaired and do you have a store/website?

Hi mate
The cost would be around 200 USD , the screens are expensive...but easy to replace

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.

Hi wise people of XDA (I really mean it.)
A few days back I dropped my precious phone while riding my scooter 70 km/h.
Now I agree that we own a REAL SOLID DEVICE. But unfortunetely my SGS3 couldn't stand much against this drop and I cracked my screen glass. Any way, I contacted my local authorized service here in Turkey and they told me the price would be around 275 euros since the glass is not changeable by itself and comes along with the amoled display and the touch unit. So doesn't sound reasonable to me. I attached photos as well in the messages so can anyone help me about the problem. I found single glass through shopping sites but afraid to change it myself and I don't know if it will work??

From what I have seen it looks hard to just replace the glass
Samsung dont make just the glass. The display, digitizer and glass are all made as one contained unit.

That is bad, man :/ I'm sorry for ya. But the price is sh*t , for real. It's just too expensive. Just take a look on ebay. There are some offers with prices about 180 euros, what is a real price drop compared to your offer.
And actually it isnt that difficult to change the display. I did it on my galaxy s1, was really hard. But on the s3 it wont be that difficult, cause the unit that is sold is almost complete, touch sensors, hardplate and display with digitizer are complete, so you only have to move your mainboard ( ) and the other small parts, and you're done with it.

actually its german, but they maybe ship it to you anyway, its cheaper then let this one change by local "professionals"
greets from germany good luck ,mate
thanks for all your precious replies. I'll try to solve this through German ebay since the prices are reasonable
I was expecting much worse seeing it fell from a moving scooter. You lucked out man.

that was a bad drop mate seeing from the pictures. sometimes rubber cases could help :good:
but anyway wish you all the luck on the screen replacement :angel:
I lost my Galaxy S3 on asphalt from around 60cm height, and it cracked the silver bezel all the way to edge, so the screen remained untouched.
What would a fix for this cost, can I RMA it? (I live in Norway) or will it be like this forever, I could live with it easily, but fixing it would be really nice.

Yes, you can use Repair Center. But it was damaged by you, so you must paid the bill for sure.
If it works fine and if you haven't cracked the screen/digitazer, it will cost about 75-100$ depending this time necessary to fix it.
Accessories section and EBay are two places to look .

Hello all. I'm almost going to buy this with a cracked screen. I went through youtube and saw videos where people ruin the lcd while trying to fix the glass only repair. Is it always this hard? Is there a sure way to replace the glass only? Or one would need to replace the whole lcd (which is really expensive)
Thank you

Better to just replace the whole thing I just got mine replaced almost paid about 200 dollars the screen and the lcd is glued together I asked my cell phone repair man and he should me the screen and why it usually doesn't work out its because they are literally glued very very closely together trust it's not worth just getting the screen replaced because u will most likely have touchscreen issues yellowing issues etc ...... If u don't plan on upgrading your phone anytime soon I would say go for it I just did it because I plan on using my note 4 a little longer we have a lot of good development and marshmallow is near mate soon. ...
Yeah, you are better off replacing the entire front panel of the Note 4 or any Samsung flagship device. As the screen and display on Samsung flagships are all glued to together so replacing just the screen is a very hard job.
Do any one what shall be the repair cost for the only glass replacement on the front, or shall be the whole digitizer be replaced.
Has any one got any Information please share, As I purchased online and I am middle of nowhere in Saudi and it is hard to find a Samsung service center near by.
I don't think there is a glass only replacement for this device, though I could be wrong. In the event that you have to replace the entire screen, here in Malaysia, samsung charges around $250 USD for it to be replaced. It is terribly expensive, I know.
Samsung wont replace only glass of the screen. They will replace all screen with price about $200-250. And maybe that contains new frame and new battery too.

In 250 USD I can get a new Note FE, Here in Saudi Arabia, Thanks to all for the help.
I had my own Note FE in it's Samsung Smart cover case but it fell from my coat waisi pocket into the pavement and it got out of the case and cracked the top right corner of the screen.
Not big damage but I'm easily annoyed with that kind of stuff. There is a service shop here in the UK that offers screen repair for the Note FE for 110gbp. I have emailed them and I'm waiting for their réponse to confirm the details. If they can fix it indeed, then immediately after I'm getting an otterbox defender case to put it inside and have it fully protected from all sides...!
