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.

Its not that hard compared to the HD2. I found it quite easy actually. Look around on the tube, there are a lot of DIY videos for instructions. I bought mine off of eBay for around 25$. Good Luck!!
Let's see how it ends up best $50 I spent.

I recently dropped my phone and the screen cracked. I was looking on ebay for a digitizer and I tried asking the sellers about it but they don't speak english and couldn't answer my questions.
Do I have to buy a certain one? I know theres an AMOLED nexus and a SLCD nexus. Does it matter? I've found a few decent looking ones, but I'm a bit iffy about which one to buy. I see the OP had a successful run, maybe you could point me in the right direction?
Any help would be great!
Digitizers are the same with both the AMOLED and SLCD screens.
I almost bought one of these but was afraid of the install. If its really that easy I may get the cash to do it. Wish I could find a n1 for $50 i'd fix and give it to my girlfriend.
It isn't the easiest thing. Have a look through the youtube tutorials before you decide to pull your phone apart.
got one from ebay. came from hong-kong. followed a video tutorial on youtube and it took me +- 1 hour. not the easiest thing but doable.
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!

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
Nvidia always!

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.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
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.

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?

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.
Edit:
Okay friends. Found a supplier laptopscreen.com
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

Kept the tablet TF300T in my car back seat.
My friend sit over and broken the LCD. The touch panel is ok, which I checked with hdmi out. Do someone know where shall I find a replacement screen from any reliable source?
Any bricked tablet if available for sale is welcome for my purpose.

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.

I just got a refurbished tf700 and noticed the screen lifting along the longer edges. I have another Asus tablet that is fine so didn't expect this l, even though I've read it isn't uncommon. I have the opportunity to get a replacement, though there is no guarantee it'll be any better. Just wondering if there is a fix for the lift if needed. Tablet is good otherwise.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
My new TF700 wasn't any better after a return for unrelated reasons. I had some screen lifting but it wasn't severe enough for me to return the tablet but other things were going on. I just figured that would be resolved when I got a new tablet. Turns out the new one had minor screen lift, just in different places. I guess that is what I have to deal with since I've had two perfect nexus 7's
Sent from my Optimus G using xda app-developers app
I haven't heard of any crazy issues with excessive screen lifting -- but be sure to check again just to be sure! Several users have reported re-fixing the glue by VERY gentle heating (going slow is key here!) with a hair dryer.
Thanks. Making me wonder if I should just keep the one I have then. It isn't super noticeable, but I clearly see it since I use it most. My nexus 7 is perfect and I use that just about every day for the past 5 months.

Meh, mine does sometimes, but I do not have the feeling that is a quality issue. Also, in my case at least, the screen lifting is not that bad.
My lift is just at edges so touching the screen has no impact, yet. It looks like they pried it apart to do the refurb and maybe didn't seal it back properly
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Even mine occasionally clicks, so does my sgs3. It's normal, there's space between the different components. It's not a vacuum
As for the screen lift, no, dont have that. Mine's European, by now we've established that the quality demands for the EU are higher. Best Buy units tend to have those issues, though.

My tf300 is also from the EU: not really any problems except clicking and sometimes ghost touches
