[Q]Atrix + HD dock for GS2?

Hey guys I was wondering, would a new atrix plus an hd multimedia dock be a fair trade for a Samsung galaxy s2? The atrix would also include two batteries, xtremeguardz screen protector, USB cable, htc wall charger, and two battery doors. I was just wondering if this would be a fair trade for both sides (well I don't care if its unfair for me as long as the other person would be getting a good trade)

Can you post pictures?
I reckon it'll be expensive to replace too, the note 1 screen and digitizer cost $220 before being replaced.... And that was only about 1/2 the size of the 10.1....

But only digitizer is cracked, not the LCD which is expensive. I found that they're around 60$.
But the digitizer for tab 10.1 is much cheaper, that's why i want to replace with it.

no, i haven't disassambled it yet.
The trouble is, with most screens, that the digitiser is glued to the screen and is a major mongrel to get off without damaging the LCD... The note 10.1 has a wacom digitiser in it so I'd assume that would put the price up...
I remember there was someone in the note forum that said he had replaced the digitiser but it was not for the lay person to do. Most people who tried tended to break the LCD and then had to fork over the $220 anyway. Plus the postage, most coming from China, could be 2 - 3 weeks long....

Fair enough, I haven't pulled apart my note (with no intention of doing so any time soon) so haven't looked to see. Also lack of a technical manual doesn't help....
digitizer replacement
I will be swapping the glass on my n8013 shortly and I'm wondering if anyone else has had any success with the less expensive lenses available on eBay. It seems that gtab 1&2 digi's are the same part (yes they are serviceable without melting the glue and prying the glass off) and several of the listings I've seen claim n8000-series compatibility as well. Other listings advertise that they are only for the 8000 series; this may just be marketing, as they appear to be the same part and the same price (almost all are $40-50 except the some that list tab 1 compatibility, as low as $25 for these).
My question is: i know the note uses a "dual digitizer" for more accurate tracking, etc. Am I going to lose accuracy with another digi? Does anyone know how the guts of this thing are designed, will the lens not make a big difference? Or do these parts actually come with the dual digitizer built in? I know these eBay digi's will fit but I don't want my Note to suck at doing Note things, haha
ANY input on this matter is appreciated
Personly I wouldn't risk it. I know that the spen can't be used as a pointer on the tab and tab 2. How much of that is due to the glass itself, I don't know but if you go the cheap way, you may find your s pen no longer works.
To me, it isn't worth the risk,but if you do it, let us know how you got on.

Hi,
It happened to me once, about 2 months ago...
Euro GT-N8000, ITALY
I bought the replacement digitizer for the GT-N8000 from a store in California for around 70$.
I managed to cleanly open the tablet (I followed a video from yuotube) only to find that the replacement digitizer was a couple of mm too big.
Obviously it didn't fit...
At the end I had to send that tablet to a local Samsung service, and I had to pay 250 € to get it fixed. They replaced the digitizer, the lcd panel and the metal body.

Wow that is almost the price of a new one now
success!
Ordered the Note 8000 8010 8013 replacement digi from ebay seller Gadgetfix in California. Unfortunately I didnt order one with the matching grey border around the screen, my new one is black instead but I dont mind. I opened the Note and carefully proceeded to dismantle it, taking extra care with the shards of glass that were stuck in the screen bezel with adhesive. After reassembly and turning it back on with my fingers crossed, it works perfectly! S pen, airview, hover, all 100% functional, and no issues with sizing, etc. I checked the part numbers on the original and replacement and they seemed to match up, although they were off by a digit or two, presumably because of the difference in color. Note: I made sure to buy the model that ONLY listed compatibility with the Note line, and didn't have model numbers listed for any of the Tab series (those were about $25 and mine was $45).
Anyway, I now have a clean-looking, fully functional , killer tablet and it only cost me an extra $45 and some sweat to fix my glass . Pics to follow.

Replaced cracked digitizer

Hi, my daughter dropped my P3113 and cracked the screen. I can't justify paying $140 to have it fixed, which seems to be the going rate. I want to buy a cheap one on eBay try myself. Has anyone attempted this yet? I saw a 10.1 replacement on youTube, but it could be different for the 7".

[Q] Upgrade : Galaxy Nexus I9250 or Xperia SL - which one should i opt for

Dear Members,
I have been using Samsung Galaxy S I9000 for the past couple of years. Recently it fell down and the display was broken, Samsung Service centre told me it will cost me 6500 INR to get it replaced. So I decided to upgrade. After looking at options, I have zeroed in on 2 models.
Samsung Galaxy Nexus I9250
or
Sony Xperia SL
I am quite satisfied with both the android phones when it comes to specs. But I am just worried about the issues with them. One of my friend bought Nexus and he always complains that the volume is really low. I have also read in many places about the same issue which is holding me back from buying it.
When it comes to Xperia SL, there are a lot of complaints about the battery life and poor viewing angles in the absence of Amoled.
I am from India, but I am traveling to Duabi next month and will buy the phone there. There is not a big difference in the pricing between the two.
I just cannot come to a conclusion which one should i buy.
Any suggestions will be really appreciated.

Low Priced Note Edge Broken Screen Protector...Help me decide myself!

Hi there, greetings from Roumania
I found a Note Edge at 230 euro but it looks like this: see the attachements!
Currently, I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 which looks incredibly well...no breaks, or scratches or anything else...but I'm looking forward to change my phone to Note 4 or Note Edge...do you have any idea how much would it cost me to change that broken glass or if it's possible to replace only the glass? I read that for this kind of phone, you can't replace the glass only, you have to replace the whole touchscreen, is it real? I really need your answers from your own experience...Thanks in advance!
Still...is it worthing to sell my 1 year guarantee S5 for 220 euro and get that broken Note Edge? I'm very puzzled
I wouldn't.
Give a few more months and somebody will be selling one cheap enough anyway.
