Does anyone know where to get a replacement screen? On ebay I have found them for the One X and the One V for like 50 bucks, but for the One S, all i can find is the whole digitizer display for like $200. I may or may not have broken my screen already..... Just the glass part.

I think your stuck with buying the whole unit - Isn't that a feature of the Super-AMOLED display? It's all-in-one with the digitizer etc?
Yap, you have to replace the whole screen here, it's one fused unit.
Poop. Ok thanks. Now I just need to find a tear apart video...

Check here, http://www.abiresearch.com/research/1012500-HTC+ONE+S+Teardown would be an interesting read though I'm not sure how much they charge for the report or if it includes step-by-step instructions
SO I called HTC up to see how much it would be to fix. The guy didn't know how much it would be because its so new, but "based on other phones similar, it would be around $140." I asked for a range, and he said between $140 and $180. So I sent it in. They just emailed me stating that it will be $200 to fix. Seems like a lot. But what do you all think? The quote said for the screen and casing, so maybe there was something wrong with the casing as well? At any rate, does anyone want to buy my one s when I get it back? lol.

Probably a few days. I will most likely put it on ebay once I get it back, tho. Unless someone makes me an offer I cant' refuse.

My girlfriend's screen broke while we were at the bar, and I cannot find anywhere that sells the screen itself, just the digitizer. Anyone know where this can be found?
*edit for drunk typing
Was it the glass, the digitizer, or the LCD that broke?
It was the LCD
Here is the full display kit on Amazon:
Triumph LCD Replacement
This is what I would get as it will have all the parts to repair/replace the screen. You could then sell off anything that was left over.

Did you ever find a replacement LCD? I'm looking for one for a friend.
Also looking for one. But what I just wound up doing since its the inside LCD. No outside damage or cracks is, I am sending it in for warranty. https://globalrepairtools.motorola.com/serviceandrepair/
You can try from virgin mobile too. Motorola is nice cause you can do it online, even verify the MSN serial number is in warranty via the site. Long as it doesnt show physical damage to the case, outside screen, you can claim it. Least according to others I have talked to. So here is hoping.
hey everyone, i cracked my skyrocket's digitizer, it is still fully fuctional just looks like crap. i was wondering if i could get one for cheap, and at the same time i was wondering why they are so exspensive. when i had my old iphone 3gs the screen was $10. why is the screen for the skyrocket $185+. it seems rediculous to me. if you could give me advice or even point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated
its a brand new phone to the market, only a few weeks old, u can't expect the digitizer to be cheap, of course its going to cost that much

It's not a "few weeks old". Stop lying to the guy.
It is still fairly young though to have spare parts in massive quantity, making things a bit expensive.
Don't buy just the digitizer..in my experience Samsung LCD/digitizer combos are just that,a combo that doesn't like to come apart. Its possible but its a PITA.

I actually lost my sim card cover and I cannot find one anywhere else, I tried to call HTC but they said that the phone is too new and they couldn't replace it. If anyone knows of a site that sells OEM parts hook me up
It says on the ebay link a few posts above that this is needed for your phone to work. That is a lie, I have removed mine and still kept all signal / wifi and even had a call without it..
i find that price a bit extortionate for a little piece of plastic.
Edit: A quick google search found this http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=233112&phone=229850 it works out about £5 cheaper, So surely if you look about some more you will find one with a reasonable price tag

I totally agree....the s3 is gonna be like their other ****ty build devices....something that at least feels like its metallic. Remember the hd2 back...I mean HTC makes better looking and feeling phones. Hardware specs is debatable but I love this phone with the exception of the memeory card and battery deals. But no cases for me either....they take away from how great and unique the phone looks

Pretty much positive that the speaker cover isn't supposed to be removed. You probably did break something in the process. Bust out the glue buddy.

Hey Guys, had the skyrocket for almost a year now, first time to drop it and the screen is now cracked. Fully functional though. Is there any way to just replace the glass and not the lcd/digitizer? I paid 150 for the phone and the only replacement screen I can find is 200+. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I searched Google and eBay and could never find just the screen. First person to give a valid link for the screen under 75 bucks will get a 5 dollar donation! Thanks
Edit: After searching a lot, it turns out the glass screen, aka digitizer, is what I need. However, I cannot find it online without including the lcd. Anyone?
I stand corrected. I do apologize. Ones for the skyrocket are much more expensive than i thought. The s2 I'd the one i had in mind.

Okay, does anyone know if the skyrocket screen/shape are EXACTLY the same as the t989? I think the speaker slot may be a little larger, but if it still works here is this

They must have put that up in the last day, I scourged ebay for a long while... Now I hear to separate the led from the glass/digitizer is near impossible.
any updates on replacing only the glass and not the lcd? I need this done on my phone

From what I've read its almost impossible to separate the two without damage. Some have tried heat guns but usually end up breaking something. Seems the two are glued pretty tightly together.

I had a S II Skyrocket fall flat on the screen and the glass cracked. I searched the internet for options to replace the glass, but none were really encouraging, specially if you are like me not really into opening up the phone and un gluing the glass from the LCD. And any spare part to replace the LCD and glass was costing no less than $150. In short what i wanted to let everyone know is, i went to a AT&T Device Support/Service center not the regular retail store, just to check if they had any spare parts which could be less than $150. And lucky me!!! they replaced the entire phone for me for $100 + taxes. And just to let everyone know, this phone was a $10 refurbished phone brought from AT&T about 8-9 months back, so no warranty or anything. A plain $100 charge and i was with a new phone. I gave in my old phone with a cracked screen and got a completely new phone and the back plate and sd card from my old phone. So anyone who is ready to spend upto a 100 dollars for fixing up the screen, you might as well try this at a AT&T service center.

That's wrong. ATT warranties there refurbs for 30 days and Samsung warranties them for a year. Glad ATT hooked you up though.

Maybe i worded it wrong. The point i wanted to put forth was, this $100 option is for anyone who has a cracked glass on S II skyrocket taken to the AT&T Product Service center. I surely did not have the AT&T warranty which is 90 days for refurbished models, and this damage would surely not be part of the Samsung warranty.
Hello everyone.
Just bought a Nexus 5 off somebody on craigslist, one big issue. Broken digitizer (I did know this when I bought it). Glass itself is mint, not even a scratch. However, the digitizer is all kinds of f***ed up, and the touch does not work. Phone itself works fine, I can confirm.
Has anybody sent their Nexus 5 in to LG recently for screen repair? If so how much was it? It would be $10 to send it in and either get it fixed or not, so I'm wary about sending it in without knowing a price. Anybody know? I'm guessing $100-$150 area, friend could do it for me with just the parts but obviously I'd prefer LG to do it. Just wondering.
Thanks!

Call a service center for an estimate, but i guess 100-150 USD will not be sufficient for the part plus assembly.
Do lg instead. I bought a screen from ebay and the screen didn't even work correctly. It didn't compared to the original screen. It cost me 150 for that third party screen replacement. I heard that's the price for an OFFICIAL screen from lg as well. That's what I'm planning on doing next.

As stated above make sure they`re talking about a original LG screen and not some cheap Chinese knockoff.
I replaced the screen my self ..It cost me 135 on eBay. What is nice is that the screen comes with the housing and buttons and pretty much all you do is drop the pieces into the new housing. Look up a few tutorials to see how its done. Also bought a few tools so all in all it was $150.
