Hello guys,
Has anyone ever needed a screen for their i727? A friend of mine managed to drop my phone on a step, facing down.
So at first you could only see a little of the top part of the screen ( with the lower half non functional) and afterwards it went all black, you can't see anything on it anymore. Volume rocker and on/off buttons work.
Do you know what would be the best option for me to get a screen/display from, given I am from Europe/Romania? Samsung here said that they don't fix something not intended for our market ( lol )...
So, would ebay be a good option? Are they original ? [le:] --- hurr durr .-- I'm a new user so I can't post links to ebay... I found 2 sellers (for white version) [/le]
Also, could it be more than just the screen ? My laptop sees it (but obviously can't select the memory card). what else could be affected?
Thanks a lot and if anybody has any other sites ( I chose ebay because they ship here).

It's the screen. Youtube, search for "i727 disassembly" or "i727 screen replacement", look at it, if you feel confident enough - buy one on eBay and do the replacement.

I agree completely, my friend replaced his screen this way. However, if you are not comfortable doing it, you might just want to buy a new one. The phone is cheap now that the S3 and S4 are out.
Also depending on how bad the drop was there could be lots of things wrong/damaged with your phone.

thank you for your replies. I just dropped it off at a guy who has a service shop (well sort of) and he will take a look and see if anything else is wrong with it.. The phone is indeed cheap, this being one of the reasons I bought this model ( and also the 4 touch sensitive buttons at the bottom - not fancying the new trend of the galaxy family).
The thing was that I was trying to find something that was indeed OEM branded. I was afraid and still am to get something that will brake shortly after replacement. Even so, the display is 70% of the price of the phone lol..drat!
Anyway thanks for the replies...I was really enjoying the upgrade from my old infuse ..while it lasted.. :crying:
Cheers
Yeah, it is an expensive part but if you take the phone apart, you'll notice it makes up about half the phone.

Hello everyone,
When I was browsing my fb today I stumbled upon this photo of a Galaxy S II plus that has a kind of broken screen. As you can see what it should display is shifted to the left. This guy isn't really a techy and has no idea of custom roms etc. Now I'm wondering is this something in the software? Because I can buy it very cheap from him, and if I only have to install CM I would have a very cheap good working phone
If it's something in the hardware is it solved by replacing the screen? (since this also includes some other things)
I did a bit of research but didn't find someone with the same problem, if you have seen a thread about this before please give me a link
thanks in advance!

never mind he dropped his phone, so it's a hardware thing
Do you have this too when you turn on your phone, or when you are in Download Mode?
I somehow broke my Nexus 5 in my pocket today. The side buttons still work and it functions normally (gets messages, updates) but the touch screen doesn't work. I was researching possible solutions to fix it. I am wondering if anyone knows if my particular situation can be fixed. What kind of replacement package should i get if i can get one? I've seen ones with the LCD, digitizer for like 60 bucks which is much cheaper than an new phone! I think i uploaded a picture of my broken phone.
Cheers
I have a crack in my display almost exactly like that (roughly in the same place). It broke in my pocket as well (no cracks in the glass). I talked to Google support and it seems like they're willing to replace the phone at no charge but we'll see I guess (hopefully they don't receive the phone and decide it's not covered).
Hi, Hope i am right to ask here for help
I has Fallen on one edge. Glas got a Cracked (Right SIde).
The Display self Shows all, but touch only works on the Craked side, the Other side Touch isnt working anymore (Only Display , no Touch)
Is it only the display deffekt, or is there another part. Don't want to Order the wrong spare Part.
Since i don't know if the touch is handled in the Display or not i thought i ask here, maybe someone could help me
Hi, a little late
But for everyone else. You can get Display or only Touch at Aliexpress.
I get one in summer 2017 for 28,-€
I dropped my magic 2 in water for a microsecond and it hasn't started up again Anyone experience this and know what would most likely have happened and if repairable?
I was thinking of asking Huawei to take a look at it given they have an office local to me but asking first on the off-chance someone has cracked one open. And as a warning to others not to dare let there's near water
:crying:
Honestly, while some very nice aspects to this phone - especially the screen and the Dex-like functionality which is very impressive the first time - the lack of Assistant support, inability to modify much, along with the weight of it and mediocre camera, I don't mind going back to my dinged-up Note FE. But it would be nice to fix it if possible.
You need to be sure is dry inside before power on. Just wait some days and then try it.
If u already did start it may some parts are broken and u should visit Huawei Center and they may have a look at it. Maxbe its easy fixable...
