Kaiser Replacement LCD ?

My 2 weeks old Kaiser slipped from my hands and the LCD broke !! I am looking for a good repair shop in Belgium or any links from which I can procure a new LCD screen real fast! Any pointers would be helpful. Also, does anyone know if the LCD screen is covered under the HTC warranty ??

whipout ur htc carepack, call the number nearest you. They probably would fix it for you for a small charge. Keep in mind, repair shops aren't htc specialists.... So my suggestion is that you contact htc and see what they can do for you.

i feel for you :{
my girlfriend just got her LCD cracked from a roller coaster (stupid safety bars). probably going to take a few weeks for us to get a replacement screen since they don't even sell the kaiser here.
she keeps subconsciously trying to touch the screen on her interm dumb-phone... and sighs.

do it yourself! buy a replacement screen on ebay, and look for replacement instructions on this forum

how easy does the screen crack if you drop it? just for arguments sake shouldn't the phones be able to sustain a reasonable drop? After all you are constantly using it in your hands so it is likely you would drop it at least once.

My Tilt has only 2 buttons on the right, the power and camera buttons. http://cnn.cn/shop/images/IMG_5052.JPG shows there are 3 buttons. What's the 3rd button?

I found that on expansys website while i was checking for a good screen protector... Have a look here :

I think 169 $ is pretty good for a whole LCD replacement?

Well, I've taken up a hobby of repairing all makes/models of phone that I can get parts for, so I'd be exceptionally grateful if you could provide some info as to WHERE and HOW you get them so cheaply....
TIA!

there are a few shopping mall in china that sell only spare part for pc, mobile phones and all micro electronics part.
and because most of the oem and third party parts are all made in china, its always cheaper to buy from there, I travel to china a lot, and in search for some parts, I did come across some tytn II parts.
but then you need to live in china or hong kong just like me, so you can go back and forward.
I can also let you know that only micro electronics parts and mobile spare parts are cheaper in china, PC stuff are cheaper in hong kong, as well as back up service.
you need to go to wha qheung ( my own english translation) street along the china railway system, most of them do bulk buy and send overseas, but its best to be there in person, as you cannot trust them sometime.
next time i'll get the address when I go over again, but i'll don't think you will travel there.

Any HD2 spares sellers out there?

Hi all,
I have to admit I have a sneaky feeling this should not be here but I'm not sure where to put it... It's not strictly a accessory but anyway, if it is wrong, please do advise.
I'm after anyone here who has or knows of a someone that sells HD2 spares?
I obtained two screen repair HD2s - both have been tampered with previously and while the units both work fine, the front keypad ribbon is broken in two so the keys are not responding.
I have managed to source 2 LCD's but without these buttons, I'm lumbered with two units and two brand new LCD units.
Appreciate any help on this!
Thanks,
Akash

Not sure if this is much help but I did recall seeing a guy on Craigslist in Toronto selling an HD2 in mint condition except for the fact that the glass screen looked like it took a bullet. The LCD was perfect underneath and no scratches anywhere. Not quite sure how someone can do that to it and keep in mint at the same time but anyway it was posted in April and they were asking for around $300 CAN.

Thanks for that suggestion
I have actually been looking around Ebay UK (Where I am) for faulty HD2s but no one will sell them cheaply so...
Bit the bullet and requested a return on the LCD - the seller will refund me the full value back. Just wish I could get these parts as the rest of the unit is mint and given that I've already stripped the screen off (not the easiest task!), it would have been great just to put it back together in a working state.
Thanks again and if anyone does have any other suggestions in getting hold of the keypad, I would appreciate a quick note on it

X2 Housing Replacement

My X2 fell from the pouch case and as i result it endured some minor scratches in its housing. Now i can't get over seeing it and wanter to replace it. I went to SE service center here in our place (Pampanga, Philippines) but they told me they weren't allowed to open such device because of their level 2 accreditation.
They gave me and address and a contact number of the center which is allowed to do so. I first contacted the service center and asked for the price if ever i will purchase new housing and casings. I saw housings in the internet being sold prior to that.
But to my surprise, according to the technical representative that responded to my text, they don't have replacement housing for this device. And told me the ones i saw in the internet are not original and is not advisable to buy it. (though the seller from that site claims that its original)
Guys, are there any original housing in your respective country? Or if u happen to know any site which is selling it.
Please don't hesitate to post it here. Thank you so much.

When you say internet, you mean off eBay? If its coming from China, guaranteed its NOT OEM (Original). I've replaced a housing on an X1, and it did not fit, the quality of the housing was POOR. I guess it can include the X2.
But if you are super desperate, you could purchasing online, just make sure you know what pieces you are getting, and making sure you actually get all of them.
Honestly, I have not seen any X2 housings yet online for sale. Good luck.

tnx dude.
Nope, it's not from ebay. i forgot the website though. I'm still trying to locate it.
I'll post it here if i got lucky.
EDITED:
Here's the link:

Will somebody be able to know if this are original?

Thanks.
I have to ask, did you replace it on your own?
And oh...i have a problem. I can't seem to understand their language hahaha!

Try this:

Same seller, german eBay.
I am curious too what kind of a challenge replacing the entire housing would be.

eBay replacement screen quality

Hello all,
My S4 was dropped and the glass, LCD and digitizer is broken (everything else still works though. I can touch the bottom panel and buttons, sound works, I can ADB and connect via teamviewer, receive calls...etc)
I want to get a new frame,LCD,Digitizer (they have sets made up already) from eBay (probably from China), however, I am concerned about the quality of such a replacement.
The quality of the OEM LCD is quite nice, and I worry that a replacement will be sub-standard.
Moreso, the OEM digitizer is quite advanced (because of airview, which allows a user to hover their finger over the screen to show previews, etc), and I worry that this feature may not work in a cheap replacement from eBay.
Has anyone had any issues ordering replacements off eBay or found any issues with the quality of their replacements?
Thanks, all!

I'd suggest looking at the ratings the seller has. That generally gives a good ideea if he sells crap or not.
If you really need those features to work, I would say you try to find a genuine one from a trusted online dealer.

Thanks. That is good advice.
I was hoping that someone with experience could answer, though. Anyone?

Look for a seller with Positive feedback more than 90%. Also look if he has sold same product before. So that you can look ratings in his feedback.
That's the best way to know about eBay sellers. I've bought nearly 10 replacement displays for various devices (as I am expert in fixing these)
iFixit site has spares as well but they are too costly!

XTRONS TE103AP Faulty Backlight/Screen failed

Hi All,
I have a new TE103AP that I've recently installed, came back to use it a couple of days ago and found the screen to have no back light. It was being discussed in these posts, but was hijacking the thread so I moved it here as there seem to be more of these faults.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77147036&postcount=161
Problem description
I came back to the unit which had no image on the screen, and I was dertaching the monitor to check the fault when my phone rang through the bluetooth, so I realised the head unit was still working, but not the screen.
I then shined a bright light onto the screen, and realised I could see a faint image, and turn on the radio, so it seems the monitor backlight is the problem.
I inspected the ribbon cable which seems to be intact and the ports seem solid too. Thankfully my friend also has a TE103AP so I swapped our monitors and ribbon cables.
My monitor works fine on his head unit, and the back light lights up, however when I plug his working monitor into my head unit, it also does not work. therefore I can deduce it is a fault in my head unit.
I have a 4wd expedition coming up in 9 days, so I contact XTRONS-PRO on ebay (official ebay store of xtrons) and they tell me I have to send the unit back.
I say I'm running short of time but they insist not to use express postage to return the item.
I ask if they can send a replacement unit at the same time as I send the faulty back, and they say no.
I contact xtrons directly, they say contact the ebay seller.
I contact xtrons on facebook, and they suggest I buy another monitor...
In my research so far I have found a couple of other documented cases of this, and would like to coordinate our support experiences and results

video of fault
https://youtu.be/wJA8lfYKtCs

Same problem here.
My issues started about 3 weeks ago. Ive been in contact with xtrons since then and they provided a new screen, as I don't have friend with the same headunit, to test my display.
Unfortunately the new display doesn't work either. I will now try to get a new base unit from them, if they try to charge me for anything, I will get in contact with Amazon and let them handle the situation. Their customer support is usually quite good and they have a bit more leverage than I have.
I'm also willing to return the headunit if the pay for shipping.
Btw: the headunit is just 2 month old, bought in may.
I will keep you updated.

Thanks Mate, I'm also asking them for help on Facebook too. Cant seem to link it here, but its on their community post section.

I will return my unit today and hope that the new one works fine.

I suspect any of those units are at risk of this kind of fault. Single weakest point of failure is always going to be the connector between the monitor and the main unit because that's where things detach and reattach.
I would just return it, but I suspect there's a chance this could happen now, in a month, or in twelve.

I will give it another try. If it should happen within the next 2 years I will get my money back from Amazon. They are usually really good with that kind of stuff.
Ive send my unit and the second screen back to them yesterday. Shipping cost me 69aud but they refunded it immediately. They also shipped the new unit once I sent them the tracking number and and a photo of the parcel.
So thumbs up for that??

My new headunit is going to be delivered today. I will report if everything works.

Hi Skezza,
I've tested my ribbon cable, and it is not the culprit. I also tested my ribbon cable ond monitor on a different unit, and my cable and monitor work fine, so my fault is definitely in the head unit, as I suspect @ankerede also is.
I have received my new head unit from Xtrons today (I had to pay $200 to have them send it before my faulty one arrived back at HK) so will update once reinstalled.

Seems like you get better customer service from Amazon than ebay, I had to pay a $200 deposit to get a new one sent out before my old one arrived back in HK. shame about the lack of consistency.

Did you try to contact xtrons directly? They have customer support on their website as well. They seemed to be quite helpful. I just decided to go with the Amazon support this time, because I had good experiences in the past.

I've received the new unit on Monday. But will set everything up at the weekend. I got a whole new system (display plus headunit and all the accessories). If it's working as well I'd say xtrons has a pretty good customer service.

Ive installed the new headunit and it's working???

Hi everybody,
I have exactly the same problem with the Xtrons te103ap, could it possibly be a factory error?

I'm really considering this HU. Not to thread jack but how do you like it?

Deben tener cuidado con algunos vendedores de EBAY, estos venden productos reparados por nuevos y dado que Ebay solo tiene garantía de 30 días, pierdes tu dinero, Ebay no tiene filtros para seleccionar sus vendedores y no responde pasado 30 dias.

These post are from 2018, I bought one a few months ago and the same thing happened to me! Tisk! I'll be contacting XTrons
