[Q] Best place to buy replacement parts for all phones? - General Questions and Answers

My buddy owns a cell phone repair shop and he has a "guy" that he gets his parts from, but lately the quality has gone down greatly. Problems range from dead touch screens or super fragile screens that crack without so much as a tap. So my question is, where is a good reliable parts website or business that we can rely on, other than amazon or ebay.

[Q] replacement parts?

Aight knowledgeable xda members..
I have recently cracked my g2x screen... but i got looking at replacement parts n so forth.... wondering a thing or 2
ok best place to find the screen/digitizer and are there bad brands that i need to stay away from??
And 2 are there any custom g2x housings online other then oem black?
was hoping for maybe a silver.. and a case just dont do it for me either...
any advice would be helpful...
You can buy a white bezel and it definitely sells a lot more if u were wondering. Also its unique and it looks good.
here is a link for a white one, to answer your question, I don't know if it is a good or bad company. Hopefully i won't crack my screen to find out.

Ya I saw that when I was looking.
It would b cool for a silver/aluminum one...

Screen replacement

Hello xda community!
With an unfortunate drop from my high up bed, my g2x's screen cracked.
Thankfully the entire screen still works just fine.
My question is, does anyone know where I should go to have my screen replaced? Or if anyone knows a good way to replace the screen?
Any help and suggestions will be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Well if you have the time and the skill. Do it yourself. Fleabay has them for $50..

I have replaced a few smartphone digitizers now and it is not that hard. Just watch a youtube video and get the right tools on amazon for cheap. I would say the skill level is 6/10.
or you could pay double that for a company to do it for you and be without a phone for a week or two...
I have a dugutuzer for sale. Brand new. Its not hard at all. Took me 20 minutes. Pm me if you want it. Ill even send you the tools needed.

In my area, if you look at Craigslist, there are so many people that offer cellphone repair services. Try Craigslist.
Amazon sells a replacement kit for about 60 dollars it has the tools and screen. I did it in under 20 min.
Just search Amazon buddy and then search YouTube for a video on how to take it apary

The only problem I have with doing it myself, is that I have tried replacing the screen on my old mt3g slide and ended up screwing up my phone, and had to throw it away.
After that, I don't feel safe doing it.

Thankfully I found this thread and went the Amazon route as well - $54 and about 30 mins of prying a few stubborn glass shards off the frame later my g2x is working flawlessly.
I'd even go so far as to say this new digitizer is a little more responsive than the original one!

Haha I know how you feel with the mt3g slide. That one is impossible because one of the slidescrews got stripped for me. Thankfully I had drill bits handy. I just replaced my aunts g2x last Monday and it is easy if you buy the digitizer with the bezel, that way you don't have to worry about prying the glass. Difficulty is like 5/10. All you have to do is take your time. If a 17 y/o can do it, so can you

I just bought one of these for about 23 dollars same seller. I replaced it but the digitizer does not work as good as the original. It is not as accurate to the touch and hardly works at all with a screen protector on it. If I had to do it over I would get the one mounted to the frame. It worked like the original.

[Q] Looking for replacement phone

I cracked the screen on my phone. I'm looking for someone who may have a LG G2X they would want to sell or another t-mobile smartphone they would get rid of cheap.
Check out the marketplace for wanting to sell, they have lots of phones to buy here.

Why not just repair the screen yourself?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
The digitizer is cheap on eBay. Cheaper than buying another phone

I looked at some of the videos on how to repair the screen. looks kinda difficult.Unless someone knows a good video the ones I have seen are not real clear.
It's really not all that difficult. Alongside the large numbers of repair videos, I think you'll be just fine.
Buying a digitizer with the frame is very preferable.

The issue is, there is no manual or video guide available. Did anyone successfully done DIY replacement of LCD or digitizer? Is it required to remove the PCB s and components for detaching the LCD from digitizer?
Any info appreciated. Thanks

Thanks. But my friend is not much rich to bear that much. So, I have to.
Anyways, i'm from Dubai. I asked Asus and they charge almost equal to the price of a used tablet here. That's Dirhams.1300=~$350.
So looking for some online supplier. I have some knowledge to fix it myself. Just need the LCD.
I found only one on eBay but that's costly also

Your almost better off buying a new unit, my man. Unless the lcds from another asus model is compatible, which would most likely be the 700, which would be the same price.
****t id be hitting up that indoor ski resort if i lived their.

Change the title of your thread to reflect your wish to purchase a bricked, non returnable unit for the screen.
Good Luck!

TF300 repared or buy the ME301

I have the TF300 already but the screen is shattered and I'm not brave enough to replace it myself. I went to a local shop the guy said he would charge me 75.00 plus parts. I was looking around trying to price the parts and stumbled upon the ME301 for 235. I see they're pretty much the same except for the screen based upon reviews but I thought I'd ask people that have used both. Is it work it to replace the screen or just get the net one?

You could even find the tf700 for that cheap.
Didn't they have more I/O issues and WiFi connectivity is spotty.
