Anyone happen to know where I could buy a new digitizer? I can't seem to find any available ones for any less than $55-60.
I was hoping to not have to pay quite THAT much for just the digitizer, but I'm running out of options.
Anyone happen to have an extra one laying around that they'd be willing to sell?
That's about the price that they are. I looked for a really long time when i had to replace mine and found it for 51.99 lemme see if I can find a link in my email

I usually find a lot of good prices at
www(dot)aliexpress(dot)com
But I've never really seen them much cheaper than $50.
How can we be sure they are not fakes?

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.

So, has anybody been able to find the outer glass only? I can't order the $200 digitizer+lcd... makes no sense...
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.
pics or it never happened

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.

Damn how long does it take to fix it

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.

I need one of these as i ripped the one in my fiance's phone. 25$ is a little pricy, and I almost just thought about buying a phone with a broken screen/digitizer and taking it out of there, but cheapest i can find on that front is $40-60. All the sites i've contacted that sell the digitizers and front housing assemblies do not carry this piece. Is it really that rare?
Any help is appreciated.
It's a bit high, not by much. I've found it for cheaper, but you have to buy more than one unfortunately.
Oh well then. I know I'd seen the digitizers ranging from $22-$45, and then found it on amazon for under $7, so i thought I'd ask around, see if maybe someone knew about a site I didn't.
I'd still do a bit more searching. You never know . You might come across another site that's cheaper. I usually search around for at least a few days before buying. Another approach you may want to try is searching for places that sell parts for the OG EVO 4G. They usually also sell parts for the Shift, and other HTC Devices.
Found it on that store's website for $10 cheaper. Link for anyone else who may need it:
https://www.gounlock.com/details.php?itemId=8015
or found completely by accident, incidently after i've already ordered the other one, for $8.99

Been looking everywhere for somewhere to replace or supply extra batteries for Chinese branded phones. Anyone know of any such places?
Ordered an Mpai n7100 from antelife.com (which only comes with 1 battery unfortunately) and have a feeling it may not last long.
So, I've been looking for the past hour for places that replace them. Any websites that have said they'll replace any battery seems to say "no we do not have that model" in their questions section. Or either from alibaba.com where the minimum order quantity is like 931843143123.
Anyway, would be really grateful if anyone could lend a hand. Searched the forums but only found references to replacement batteries for A-list phones. Lol.
Thanks in advance!

Sadly not
This seems really sucky! Should have thought about that before I ordered.

Hey, guys. So, what happened is my XT925 fell screen straight down on ceramic tiles and the display just shattered. Well, the glass shattered, all right, but the display seems gone, since it no longer lights up at all, not a single bit of it. I have it connected to my monitor via hdmi and it's still up running and I'm keeping it connected to the PC to keep it up and running for not sure what reason. The digitizer is gone, too, it does not respond to touch anywhere.
The reason it just smashed is the freaking horrible case I got for it which didn't even hold on properly on that side, so there was nothing to hold it from smashing to the floor screen-first. Boy do I now regret going for the cheapest possible case, instead of buying a premium for something that would actually provide some protection to the thing.
Thing is, though, I really love this thing. It has been giving me everything I want from a smartphone for the past few months and I really want to get it fixed. The biggest trouble to this goal is that I live in Serbia, so shipping can cost aaa looot.
First thing that cross my mind, naturally, was looking for a new screen. On ebay I found chinese ones for ~$90, and some supposedly OEM ones from the US at ~110, but they included the whole front of the case plus a small toolkit, which is awesome, and I would definitely go for that before the chinese one.
But, then, I thought about something else. Finding a bricked XT926M, the HD MAXX, and making a hybrid of the two. I'd use the case, display and the battery of the MAXX and everything else from my phone. Although I'm not sure if all the sensors and the front camera are working (using keyboard to control Lollipop sucks ), so all the spare parts from the Maxx would be great to have just in case.
Now, problem is I can't find one. Does anyone know where I should look besides ebay? Even there most people are not willing to ship internationally. I can pay via paypal, that's not an issue.
So, in short, my questions are these - can a new whole front of the Razr HD (OEM) be found for less than a 100 bucks? Or where I could find a bricked HD Maxx in a very good condition exterior-wise? Please point me to somewhere, as I'd really love to get the poor thing back together And then get a proper case for it.
(Not sure if I should call on someone personally... @iBolski @Zeljko1234 @[] AL [] @bweN diorD @DorianX ?(sorry guys if you consider this spam))
I would browse through this help forum looking for the few threads where some other members had bricked phones. There was a good hand full if not more. Maybe you can arrange (via pm) to pay them the shipping to send it to you.
I don't think that would violate the rules of Xda, as there phone is basically trash anyway.

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't. I mean, PM stuff should really be private stuff... I was thinking about adding a "[WTB] A bricked XT926M in good shape" to my signature but that would surely be too much.
Also, are there any other places where I could look besides ebay?
And do you think my idea makes sense?

You can try Swappa, but broken phones of any nature aren't allowed there.
Your idea sounds reasonable, but I'm really no expert in that area.

There are so many bricked HD's around here... I didn't have a clue. Thought they were unbrickable, at least the unlocked ones. I'll try contacting some of those guys. It's not very cool, trying to get the carcasses of their dead RAZR HD's, but I hope I'll find someone willing to work it out with me.
Also, I must hand it to you, man. You seem to be the most helpful member in this section of the HD forum, it's remarkable. You and DorianX seem to be the locals around here. Huge respect for the two of you!
I'm not really that helpful ?
Poor thing looks as if it were on life support. Turned it off now, no reason to keep it running and I can turn it on again any time, anyway.
Still looking for parts, so... If anyone's got more tips, do share, please!

Unfortunately, I can't really help other than what was suggested. I already traded mine in when I got my new phone (LG G3), so I don't have it anymore.
eBay is your best bet. Just research the seller really well. Stay away from any new sellers. That's not to say all new sellers are bad, but you just never know. Pretty much any sellers with really high ratings are legit (depending on how many people have reviewed them). I usually look for sellers that have been around for years and have over 1k ratings and look to see how many other items they've sold.
Other than that, not sure what else you can do.

Hey, that's still advice, so thanks, mate I'm not a newbie at e-commerce, I've been doing it for years (albeit only locally, within Serbian borders) so I kind of now what to look for... But I was hoping there would be someone on the forums with a XT925/6/M he no longer needs. Oh, well, I'll keep my eyes open for a good deal, thanks guys!
Damn my phone's screen was broken 2 days ago [emoji24] is the second time [emoji35] , I really like that device but I don't want to fix it again I want to try a new one [emoji16] (Sony Xperia Z1 (cuz I found it very attractive and is in my price range)) I'll give the RAZR to my girlfriend and let her pay for the screen [emoji38].
I'll keep an eye in this device section anyway, good luck with your search.

Sorry to hear that, mate Last time you broke it, did you buy an OEM new one or one of the cheaper replacements available from China? And, if you ordered the one from China, how good or bad was it? I'm scared that if I order the cheaper one, I might end up with a non-AMOLED-who-knows-how-bad screen covered with non--gorilla glass and with a lousy digitizer... Am I too paranoid?
I bought the "cheaper" one I say cheaper cuz I only pay like $50 for the RAZR on 18 months plan and the China screen it cost $110 free shipping (like 1 year ago) was good I think the same as OEM, I think you are to paranoid [emoji38]
