where can i get a replacment screen i dropped mine and its now bust please help thx in advance
Ooops!
Hi, I did the same and the people at O2 replaced it for £70
Not too bad, and I got a new casing as well!
Adam
thanks will give them a try
No they don't!!! already checked with them and be sure to check out the other forums relating to this topic BEFORE you go further - check whether it is just the touchscreen or the whole screen that needs replacing saves you time and money as others have made this mistake!!! I think the £70 price is if you are a U.K O2 contrated owner, cause they told me it was double this price and I was just needing my touchscreen replaced as it was scratched up!!
Hi,
I have a new XDA which basically doesn't work because something in the circuitry is broken and it doesn't make any sound.However eveything else works(what I mean is the phone bit doesn't work,but the PDA side of it does).
What that means is that the screen and other physical external parts are in perfect working order.
So if you are looking for a screen or any other major part,I could be persuaded to part with it at a reasonable price.
DO let me know in this forum and we can arrange things from there.
screen
Hi,
My screen was broken also, did a huge search through the internet and came up with nothing. The only thing that could be replaced was the touch screen, not the lcd screen. I had to sent it back to o2. Cost: 284 Euro!!!!!
It's been 3 weeks now, and I'm still waiting for my phone :shock: .
Succes,
Stefan
The LCD screen and all the physical parts are perfectly ok on my XDA.So someone can make a tidy saving by taking the XDA off me in case their screen is broken.
Any takers please contact me at [email protected]
hm
and how much do you want to have for your broken xda?
I wouldn't like to drive this.Offer me a price and I will let you know if I do accept the price.
But no point asking me to part with it for €50 or something as ridiculous as that as I already have an offer for €75 and am waiting for something better.As I said all the parts are in perfect order and there are no scratches or anything like that.So you get a safety net of all replaceable parts.
I am open to offers on this one.
I was thinking about this and maybe half of what O2 charge to replace the screen is a fair price? On top of the screen,you will get the exterior casing,buttons,stylus the ROM,everything. So I think it is a fair price.Let me know if anyone's interested.

I would be interested in your xda
mail me on [email protected] if you like
Thanks

Hi Martin,
I have sent you a mail at the mail address you mentioned in your post.
My XDA is no longer available as it has been sold to Martin.
Thanks for the interest guys.
Hello,
I think HTC Kaiser's screen is too delicate. Mine got cracked yesterday very easily. I've had many PDA phones and it never happened to me.
Does anyone know where can I get a replacement screen?
Thanks,
Mario.
How did it crack, you pushed too hard when trying to use TouchFlo? it fell. Cause there has to be a reason that gives you the impression the screen is too delicate
ha ha, that sucks
Well, depending on how long you've had it, maybe it's covered under the 30 day warranty for return? I can't imagine how someone could break it, so it sounds like manufacturing defect to me??
Sound good to you??
Give it a try....
Let us know how it happened and if you get it fixed!
Good luck!
And to Doug2873... Don't make the guy feel worse than I'm sure he already does!!

do you have any other parts?
When I read certain posts in these forums, I wonder: So annoying online.... what it would be like to meet these people in real life? Although I guess everybody has one of these in their office...

Thank you all for your replies...I live in Mexico City and currently I'm in the US and there's no way of getting a replacement screen. HTC asked me to ship them the unit and they would charge between $170 and $350 USD for fixing it.
njbridges: I sent you a PM with my contact info.
I think we need a hard case for this device. Has anyone seen one?
Mine cracked because someone pushed me and I fell on it.
Thanks!

I think if SOMEONE fell on any PDA out there, the screen cracks is no wonmder. i think...
I read a Post where someone have cracked his PDA (i think mda3) because it feld off off the front window on his car and down to the gearbrick(?).. and it cracks the screen 2times.
I don´t have the feeling that the screen is more sensible as other screens...
Sorry for the engl. i´m from germany.

I too cracked my screen pretty traumatized about it, superiorgadgets is looking into it, but I will pm njbridges as well as a backup.
I'm unable to get the cracked screen out of the device, I have all the screwdrivers but I can't find a way of opening the Kaiser.
Any ideas?
Hope this helps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337102
Mine just cracked today, for no reason. It has never been dropped or abused, it's in new condition, not a nick or scratch on it, I'm extremely careful. It was on the counter charging and I went to take it off the charger and saw the screen was cracked. I called ATT and they told me I'm SOL, it would be $498 to repair.
yeah if u are comfortable best bet do it yourself and save $300-$400
I found the part for about $100 from another member here. I'm tempted to just replace it and sell this phone. While I loved the 8525, I haven't been particularly happy with the 8925. Maybe it would be better with newer firmware, but I won't know now unless I replace the screen. I wonder what it's worth for parts......
Mine has never been dropped, but after reading how easy is to break it I'm really concerned...
I have dropped my old 8125 like 10 times and it's still working like the first day...
I just ordered the replacement screen from njbridges today. I'll post after I've received the parts and add my 2 cents. If anybody is going to break something in this replacement process, it will be me. I'm completely inept at using tools. I can barely even change the batteries in my kids' toys.
MOds feel free to move if in the wrong section
**I also have searched this problem before creating a new thread
I recently dropped my phone(thats in a hard plastic protective case) approx 2 feet onto the ground. I picked my phone up pissed at my clumsiness and i noticed the phone was still working perfectly fine but everything that is supposed to appear dark is now light and vice versa. Im kinda low on funds right now but i was wondering are there any alternatives other then a screen replacement
Just checking in I have tried a few things any input would be appreciated...I think im going to go to cingular
I will post up pics to show what the phone looks like to help others who may experience this problem
It could be false economy attempting a repair yourself

I wouldn't go buying a replacement screen off the bat, it may simply be something like the flex cable has come slightly ajar. A good repair centre that know their stuff will correctly diagnose it, only replacing whats required (possibly saving you money from buying parts that aren't needed).
Thanks now my next issue...lol is finding a reputable repair shop
I have been to two places thus far and one person looked at my phone and simply said thats going to be $140 to repair before taking it apart or any diagnostics and another place wasnt even familiar with my phone so the search continues
And thanks for the help
Hey, I'm curious to know if anyone knows where to get replacement parts for the leo. I recently fell down a flight of stair and destroyed everything to do with my leo's outsides. The screen is trashed, and the case it bent. So, I need to replace it all. Any information would be greatly appreciate.
Thanks in advance.

When in doubt, contact HTC (And doubt some more)
It's been a few days since I first started this thread. Lots of views but no replies. So... I wrote HTC about it (on their website) and their response was quite unbelievably stupid.
I mentioned that I live in China, and that I'd like to know how I could have it repaired. I put in the serial number as well. They replied by telling me that my phone was sold in France and that I should go back to France to get it repaired, otherwise I can go to Hong Kong or Taiwan to get it repaired.
I am really curious what kind of person would write such a silly reply. As though plane tickets cost the same as cab rides, and the flight is only a hop and a skip away.
I've written them back and clarified the kind of help I am looking for (An address to send my phone to, and a quote for parts and labour) here's hoping they don't misinterpret it again and send me more bs.
Not much point to my writing this other than to say, if you need to contact HTC with a similar query, assume you're writing to an idiot and be as absolutely clear as you can. You may even want to suggest to them what is common sense, and not assume that they're going to think of the most reasonable method themselves.

Hi,
Sorry to hear of your accident.
If your phone is that badly damaged why don't you just claim off your phone or house insurance and get a new one? Sounds like this is much less hassle than trying to get it repaired.
I am assuming you have some form of insurance for the phone?

Or send it to HTC repair. I heard it will cost like €150 to repair.
Have a nearly same question.
My HD2 screen one day have a big black dot at the center. I give my HD2 to the local HTC service, they answer me that, they cannot give me a warranty because it's broken by pressing from outside into a screen.
So, if replace a screen will cost about 230USD.
I take my HD2, come home, search on eBay for the screen replacement. It cost only 80USD. Maybe it's a solution for you too.
Hi,
where did you get the replacement screen for $80?
Thanks.

that is just touchscreen+bracket, not entire LCD. Though you get a free screwdriver with it

I've had the same problem too a couple of times. Fortunately both times the dot disappeared after pressing the screen gently in various places. What's disturbing, though, is that I've had the phone for a week only and gone to great lengths to ensure it has not been under any physical pressure (or psychological, for that matter ). Have anyone else noticed this; is this a weakness with the phone or have I just been unlucky?
u should take it to htc service !
I've just dropped mine and accidentally closed a door on it, so now mine is full of scratches too.
I'll take it back to the service center in Taiwan when I get back there, though rather annoyingly that won't be until March at the earliest If the HK service center can do it though, I can drop it in there in Feb ... I wonder if their pricing will be the same ...
Hey guys I dropped my HD2 too and the screen cracked. I noticed that there are repair kits at around 80 USD. Anyone has any video or tutorial on how to replace the screen with the repair kit? Or has anyone self-repaired the screen successfully?
I'll have the chance to either get a new HD2 (and sell the broken one), the Hero or perhaps the Nexus One so I want to see if it is possible to do a cheap fix and get a new toy.
Hi all
quite some time ago I killed a good 20% of my digitizer - bottom right corner where on screen keyboard is grrr.
Being in NZ I had a hard time finding anyone that would repair it for a reasonable cost etc. This phone is not native to NZ - parallel import.
Fired an e-mail back to a local supplier to touch base on an old quote and almost fell off my chair to find they had a spare screen/digitizer/keyboard/slider etc "second hand" for $90 NZD.
BOOM jumped on that, parts arrived I swear they are brand new !
Took it apart following a video guide, 60mins or so later she is as good as new
Like really new, never realised just how worn my keyboard was :/
WOHU
If anyone needs help with such things be sure to ask I can help where possible

I wonder if you can point me to the link that instruct me to replace the cracked screen of my D3 Global with a new screen. The screen was cracked but the phone functions well and it can display well all the icons I have in the phone. Much appreciate!!

Congrats!! My D3 took a nosedive onto the concrete a few weeks back, scared the crap out of me... I thought for sure I'd busted my screen, but these phones are built like tanks.
nice to hear others have succeeded with repairs
apologies for no response, thought I was to be notified of replies :/ apparently not!
