Hi. I recently purchased a Chinese 6 inch phone from Chinavasion.com and the screen was 6 inches big. So, my little one got her hands on it and dropped it and broke the screen. I was told in CV.com that I had warranty for a yr so I wrote them. They replied that warranty doesn't cover repairs and that the best they can do is for me to send it in and if they can repair they would but if they couldn't,there would be no compensation. Seeing how they work,I am thinking they will tell me that they couldn't repair and keep the phone and resell after they do repair in fact. My question is,does anyone know where can I find replacement screen for chinese touchscreen phones? I contacted them and they said they don't have screens. SO if they don't have, and warranty doesn't cover repair,I basically through $200+ out the window and now I just dump the phone in the garbage??????
search in local market an mobile shops .. hit thanks if i helped

If you don't want to /can't DIY, the most obvious and the best place is the Motorola service centre in your city but that might be expensive. If you're going to be in Mumbai one of these days, head to Manish Market for cheap repairs. It's inexpensive stuff without any guarantee but at least you save money.
Or better yet, go to the Service Center. When they give you their fat quote, tell them that you can't spend that much. They'll tell you where to go in your city for cheap unofficial repairs.
the ebay link i found in that thread has the bezel in it too, you dont have to glue if you buy that.
you didnt tell if the lcd died too or just the touch glass?
everything works its just that the screen is broken
OP, I'd made a few calls today. The guys will need to see your phone before they can give an estimate.
Nerwork issue with Vodafone
I am facing network issue with Vodafone. Network is going off and coming back for few seconds. Sometimes its working fine but not sure when it will go off. I changed my service provider to Vodafone after I bought the phone and facing this issue with Vodafone only. For all other networks, there is no issue. Dont know how to tackle this. Is there any solution for this known issue, Or I have to change my network or phone ?
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.

idk, I've heard it's $146 some places, $100 others. They don't give out estimates, it has to be sent in (odd).

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.

Hi guys, a week ago my beloved Nexus 5 fell on the ground and its screen cracked. Display works as a charm but the glass is cracked. I've done some research and it seems that i will have to replace whole display since it's very hard to separate only the glass.
Does anyone know where should I search for a replacement screen, and will that replacement be just as good as the one i had on my Nexus. I would like to buy the original one from the LG so if anyone could give me some guidelines, that would be great!
Tnx

Unfortunately we don't know much about you, but if you're lucky enough to be in the US and bought your Nexus from play, Google will swap it out free of charge on a one-time deal.
No, I bought it Croatia. Too bad.
I was hoping if someone could give me a few links where could i buy the screen that is the same quality as my old one.

I also have a nexus 5 with a cracked screen.
I would like to buy a new screen on ebay, but as FraneSare said you can not know which item is good. I would like to have the same quality screen as original. Or buy orginal one, if possible.
FraneSare, did you replace your screen? Where did you bought it and how much did it cost?

I did. It would cost me 140 EUR at official LG service in my country. That is almost a half of the price of the phone. My plan is to get a good screen for 50 - 80 EUR and fix it myself.
It costs so much because the glass, touch sensor & screen are sold as a single unit. I'm in the same situation since spring and I haven't found any part online that would cost far less than what the LG service quoted me.
I'm gonna take a look and see if the prices have dropped since then.
Hello!
I live in Japan but I bought an unlocked phone from Amazon, so it is very hard to find a place to do repairs and I was thinking about doing it myself.
It fell down and the glass cracked (picture attached). The LCD screen is ok, so I just need the digitizer and I want to know what to consider when buying one.
(I have no idea what I am doing )
Please send links to ebay items (or from anywhere that ships to Japan) that you think are ok.
Thanks!!

I know, but the only other option is to send my phone to the US to get repairs, and they won't even ship internationally, so i would need someone in the us to ship it back to me (which i don't have), and i don't know if i would have to pay taxes again, so it is a lot easier to just change the screen myself.
It is a bummer, but what else can I do? (Seriously, I am asking...)
I don't know specifically about the z3 but for most new phones the digitizer is glued to the lcd screen and is a real pain to remove - you have to heat it carefully using heat gun/blow dryer and it's a delicate process of removing the glass from the lcd. In Canada the repair costs around $200 from authorized Sony repair center. Have you called Sony mobile support? I'm sure they have a repair center in Japan that they could direct you to...

I did call them and there is no official Sony repair center in Japan.
It's because in Japan you can't just buy an unlocked phone, all phones are sold by the phone companies, there isn't a Sony store, so only the phone companies provide the repairs, but they won't take mine exactly because it is a unlocked version.
I bought mine unlocked on Amazon because I am going back to my country this year and I didn't want a locked phone.
I got an estimate of 5200 yen to replace the glass, which is around 50 usd, so I am really sad because the price difference between the spare part and the actual repair is very small.

If I may say, $50 is not bad at all considering Sony would charge you to replace the whole LCD unit ($150 - $200)... on the other hand I wish Sony would do what Google does and replace one broken screen free of charge (or so I hear).
Good luck.
anyone know of any repair service, smashed my oneplus one today , i can still see my screen but unresponsive and smashed?
and looking at the teardown looks pretty difficult im an absolute joke with diy!!!
anyone know anywhere or anyone ?
what are the chinese phones like nowdays
You can probably get a replacement LCD on eBay and give it to an repair shop and they charge you for labor.
