Nexus 7 Replacement parts...

So my dog decided to chew on my nexus and the screen is cracked from top to bottom and is unresponsive to touch...
Have any of you had any luck with finding replacement parts? All I have found was this guy and it just seems pretty sketchy to me... I also found replacement backs which I will probably get.
www.dfwpcrepairs.com/google_nexus_7__tablet_screen_repair.html
Have no problems doing the repairs myself just need the parts first...
I wouldn't trust the website, the cost of the screen repair is very high because asus have made it so that the LCD is glued to the digitizer making it cost a hefty $160 for Asus to repair it themselves.
Also I cracked my nexus 7 and sent it to knowhow coverage, they told me that it is impossible for them to get their hands on a screen.
Instead they're reviewing the problem and giving me a £200 voucher for currys and PC world.

They'll only cover it if you got the dog from Asus, too.

Alright so I just need to stencil the ASUS logo then spray paint it on my dog?
Cool!
Guess I will wait a little bit and what comes around for fixing myself. May email ASUS and see If I can pay them to repair it (doubtful) or worst case senario I just buy another one.
Thanks Guys
I have been looking for Nexus 7 parts just in case something happens to one of my Nexus 7's and I couldn't find anything. ASUS will repair a broken screen for $170(US). It might actually be cheaper to buy a 8gb Nexus 7, harvest the screen and sell the rest of the parts on ebay. You may end up getting it for free if you can sell everything else off. The battery is Worth $40, The 8gb logic board is worth $99, front facing camera is $15, I/O cable(charging port and headset jack) is $15, Speaker is $15 and the charger is $15.
Is the bezel (silver lining around the screen) part of the screen also? Does that mean if i were to replaced a dented bezel, I have to replace the whole screen?

Unfortunately it is.
info
I just spoke with Asus eStore.
http://www.service.asus.com/infopage.aspx?rid=7#!consumer/csn9
Their web site lists nexyus 7 but has no parts listed.
http://us.estore.asus.com/
The person I spoke to said they do not sell the replacement screen and it would be via repair only. I was told the parts store will probably only carry chargers and cables.
I managed to get the part number of the screen it is: 90R-OK0M1L11000U (that is the letter "O" imediatly before the "K")
They had no record of who the (3rd party?) manufacturer of the screen is.
I strongly suggested they offer hte screen as a part for direct sale as the repair cost is approx the same as a new tablet, so not worth doing.
I STATED THAT THE PRESENT RESTRICTION MAKES ME QUESTION BUYING FUTURE ASUS PRODUCTS.
If enough people complain we may push them to sell replacement screen parts from their parts store.
The screen is made by Hydis model # HV070WX2. I still have not been able to find someone that has them in stock. There is a site I found that supposedly has 5k in stock for wholesalers.

would this by any chance void the warranty? my back pocket managed to crack the screen on one i JUST got from RMA. at this point i wouldnt mind buying a new one and keeping it around till replacement screens are actually plausible.
The screens are just starting to show up on the market. They are $160+. Almost easier to buy a new 8GB instead of a new LCD/Digitizer.
I'm hoping the price comes down with competition, but at this point there isn't any competition there's only few limited sources.

ASUS will service it for 202.00, ie: motherboard. They won't sell me a motherboard. They won't repair the one I have. Say they're not for sale, can't sell. I might as well just buy a new one. Last ASUS product I'll ever buy.
i would wait to see what they do with the 8GB with the discontinuing of them before buying screen. Like someone else said, use one for salvage if it is dirt cheap

If you're looking for a motherboard you can pick up cheap as-is nexus 7's on eBay all day. I bought one with a broken screen that 100% works. The crack is at the top near the camera and does not extend into the screen. I got it for less than $50. I know how lucky I got, I feel like I won the lottery.
You can get them as low as $30. Not bad to use the motherboard or even spare battery. Even the back case is worth that almost.

Yeah, I caught that. Only two on Ebay when I looked. $31.00 and 9.90. So definitely the route I'll be going.
Nexus 7 screen cracked
My nexus 7 32gb screen has cracked & I was wondering if any other screen would fit or does it need
To be an original cos of the digitiser?
I have not found the part I need for mine, boo! I need a usb slot for the damn thing, my son was playing with it and left it on the floor, little to no surprise, he was excited and walked away, came back and stepped on the cord part charging it, so now it wont charge.. the internal usb is all screwed up, its just on a little board that looks like its easy enough to replace once you get the board to replace it with.
@hazard1nc: Here ya go, seems to be a really good shop for replacement parts.
I'm going to buy a new mainboard and speaker for mine there

There are some usb/audio replacement boards, I think that's the one you want
Still wondering, why the usb/audio boards are so expensive, but this is normal, didn't find a cheaper one yet.

[Q] Shipped from Amazon. Seal Broken?

Hey,
I wanted to know if any of your are experiencing the same thing I did. I just purchase the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition White 16gb and received it in a package that you can easily tamper. It was not taped shut. The package itself for the product has both seals broken. I took out the product, it seems to have not been touched.
Can you return it and ask for an replacement. It Doesn't sound legit how they sold the device to you.

Yeah I just called them for a replacement. They are going to send me one for 1 day delivery so it should be here tomorrow. I am just really upset with them right now because I have been waiting for the device. I was just wondering if other people that have purchased the tab from Amazon got a broken sealed tablet.
a lot of people complained about this with lasr year's note. I forgot what amazons reason was. mine came sealed.
i got a 16gb black shipped from bestbuy and seals were in tact.
My cousin ordered one off amazon and the seal was broken. Half his screen did not function and the home button was busted. Luckily, he was able to get a replacement.
Thanks guys for responding. I thought it was uncommon. I guess its not. My replacement just shipped out. Hopefully the seal isn't broken again...

Bricked Hdx 7? EBay has your motherboard

Looking on EBay and there are a few, more than a few motherboards for the Hdx 7.
I've got one as well, will not guarantee it's functionality as I do not have an Hdx 7 to test it on.
I'll give it away, just pay shipping in the states preferably.
Best of luck finding your parts, I've fixed 2 Hdx 8.9s with new motherboards.

Amazon UK suddenly stopped selling Shield TV 16GB?

I was shopping for a Shield TV on Amazon UK for a few days and suddenly today there's a message:
"Currently unavailable. - We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock."
Could there be a new model coming down the pipe?

More probable that it's not been a good seller and they're stopping selling it?
I would think that if a new model was this close then there would have been announcements or at least rumours.
It came back on Amazon UK again... but it doesn't have the extra free controller (two total) like Nvidia.com is selling for the same price.
In any event, I just ordered a Wetek Core for $112 which I reckon will do the trick for me. It's powerful enough for Kodi and comes with a decent remote. It will replace my Roku 3 (I've been a Roku user from day one).
Nvidia should give people a choice between games controller, remote or nada - they'd sell far more Shield TV boxes.
I've never played games in my life so the thought of being stuck with a games controller and paying more for a remote just turned me off.
Plus, the Shield TV has been out for about a year now - I'd expect a new model within a few months.

The two game pads are a promotion that finishes on the 1st of May. Stores like Ebuyer and Scan are honouring it in the UK...I bought my Shield TV just over a month ago when the remote was bundled free on promotion. Honestly the remote isn't all that and is overpriced in my opinion....even if people don't want the extra pad being bundled, it shouldn't be hard to sell on to recoup cash on the initial purchase.
I'm sure you did your homework before buying. I've read many reviews and most don't really do the device justice....many mention the remote as being needed but neglect to mention the CEC compatibility (use the actual television remote) or the free apps available for smartphones to control Android TV or Kodi. Yes the "gaming chops" of the Shield TV are often mentioned but I'm still confident I bought the better hardware...it's actually Android TV that lets the device down. Many people are using Kodi and 3rd party addons to use ITV Player, which is crazy as they should have android apps available for the device.
With the update to Marshmallow it's actually more cost effective to buy the 16GB model and add your own storage (MicroSD or USB HDD) . These promotions surprise me as I figured Nvidia would need to bundle extra "goodies" for the Pro version to entice people to purchase that model.
I wouldn't be so sure about a new device so soon. I felt the same about the Shield tablet, after a year on the shelves I knew the Shield TV was on the horizon and (wrongly) assumed they would do a new tablet with Maxwell. Instead they released the Shield K1, still using Kepler and removing some features to lower the price point.
