[Q] Galaxy S2 Mainboard replacement - General Questions and Answers

Good afternoon,
I have a broken Galaxy S2 which mainboard needs to be replaced. It's hard to find one, but I found a SGH-i777 on ebay. I wonder if it's compatible with my phone. On the sticker it says "Model: GT-I9100GSMH". Will it work?!
If you guys can also point me to a reliable place to buy this mainboard I will be very grateful!
Component C565 is toasted and need to be replaced to check for other problems. From another thread, C565 is a Ceramic Capacitor.

[Q] SGS2 LCD screen + Digitizer Replacement

Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone would be able to help me with my question/problem. I'm kind of new to this site, so please excuse me if I seem noobish. I tried looking everywhere in the forums for something similar to my predicament, but I didn't find anything. Either that, or I didn't look very well.
Anyways, I'll try to be as brief as possible. I bought a broken Samsung Galaxy S2 with a cracked screen and broken digitizer for $100. My plan was to swap out everything with replacement parts, but when I took it apart to check the model number (because I noticed some differences from my i9100) I found out that it was the Korean-type S2. The model number is SHW-M250S. I looked everywhere on Ebay and Amazon for the lcd screen and digitizer for this exact model, and nothing came up except the regular i9100 lcd+digitizer replacements. Link below:

I did check on Amazon, and the closest thing I was able to find for the shw-m250s model are these items that are in the link below. Other than the lcd screen and digitizer, it also comes with a brand new housing and other parts I don't need. Which is just making it more expensive. Link below:
http://www.amazon.com/Touchscreen-D..._1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1326418770&sr=1-3
My question is, can I use a regular i9100 lcd screen and digitizer replacement part for my SHW-M250S model, or at least use the (SHW-M250L) model part that I found on Amazon? The SHW-M250L parts look very similar to the one that I have. (That "L" could be a typo) If not, can someone send me a link to a site or place where I can buy ONLY the lcd screen and digitizer part for my exact model?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Thanks in advance

its easier to just buy a new housing unit on ebay. The dummy models don't have a digitizer in the screen, and are not normally able to be taken apart.

[Q] Screen repair for rooted phone

A couple questions for a new user:
1. I cracked the screen of my galaxy note 2. I called samsung, they referred me to their repair center. I can't call them until tuesday on account of the holiday in Canada. My phone is rooted, will they repair it, even if I pay for the repairs if my phone is rooted?
2. Any idea how much it will cost to fix the screen?
3. Can I re-root my phone?
Thanks everyone
That's a good question. Idk if they would or not, but if you know what's wrong you can buy the parts yourself and fix it yourself. Galaxy is actually a fairly simple phone to repair on your own. I broke my gf gs3 and insurance wanted $200 to fix it. All that was wrong was the digitizer and the screen cracks. I found parts to replace them for cheap. If that's something you could handle I'd look into that first.
Sent from my brain to your eyes, to your brain, using my Galaxy S3, running Cm 10.1. I'm in your head now.

Idk if it applies to the s2, but on the s3 the screen digitizer and glass are all one component. if you melt the glue holding he pieces, you can replace them individually which is much cheaper than any other option

replacing Android mainboard vs replacing iPhone mainboard question

So, when I replaced a mainboard in my Samsung galaxy S3 I basically had a new phone. I had a new serial number and a new IMEI and for all intents and purposes it was indeed a new phone(To me, anyways!).
My question is this: Will this be the same case if I were to replace the mainboard in an iPhone 7 or even an iPhone X?
Thanks in advance for any knowledgeable answers! much appreciated!!!
