They sell the digitizer (which is what you scratched) on EBay. It will require you to take your phone apart. You could check with HTC to see if they would let you do a warranty exchange.

Well, depends how badly do you scratch your screen. I'm just curious, what thing do you use to scratch the screen? AFAIK sands will easily scratch the screen.
To fix light scratch, you can use some polishing compound used in car and polish it.

[Q] scratch on screen

somehow my screen has a little scratch on it !
how can i fix it ?
should i replace the screen ? do you how much does it cost ?
it really annoys me...
there is a tube to remove little scratches but i tried it in my camera and it didnt work really (my scratch was really deep)
Cant wait untill they come out with an app for that
You can prevent by applying a screen protector ASAP. The screen protector of my old A3100 was BADLY scratched while the screen itself was PERFECTLY good.

As far as breaking the screen on an expensive phone being funny, i'm not sure... but I would suggest you buy a replacement that is GENUINE samsung, as ebay imitations will be made of inferior materials that will scratch easier, break easier (and you don't want that considering the one you had) and will impair touchscreen function, you probably also will need to change the unit as a whole including the AMOLED, this is because the screens are glued together and also calibrated together (or I would imagine so following trends of touchscreen technology) Might be costly!

[Q] Screen

I have a question, is there a way to remove the scratches from x8 screen?
My screen really looks bad and the worst part and that makes me trully sick is that it wasn't even my fault! You know when friends ask you to see your cell and send it straight to the floor? That's it.
Would it help if I used screen protectors now? I heard it disguises it.
Thanks in advance!

if am not mistaken the x8 is scratch resistant,see if u have a screen protector on already,check edges of the screen,its better to put on a screen protector

I don't think it has a screen protector, if it does it isn't noticeable. I remember it came with one but I took that out many months ago.
Thanks anyway
I have screen protector from ebay or dealextreme (not sure any more) and it's almost unnoticeable visualy and touchscreen works with no difference.
If phone came with one already on, I have 2 now and have no problem with that
If you want to change it you only need to change digitizer. It's not too expensive. You can put cypres one for real dual touch if you don't have one now.

Thanks! I'll check fo prices of the digitizer. Mine is synaptics (I think it's called that), do you think cypress is better? I know it has errors with some roms/kernels.
Bro,you will have real dual-touch with cypress:>.

[Q] Help!!! cracked my screen

Help needed!! I just cracked my IS screen and now i can't see anything on it, i need somehow to view my phone screen using pc.
my phone is fully stock and i dont have root.
sorry for my bad english
what....???how,...??DUDE that's Gorilla Glass....anyways i don't think it would be covered in warranty though as it is a physical Damage..see if u have any hTC service centers near by and they repair it for u ..u might need to pay
If you have USB debugging enabled you can view your screen using the android sdk. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1496213
Otherwise I think you're out of luck. There's a couple of threads about replacing the screen in the forum though.

You know what even a friend of mine got a noticeable scratch on the 'gorilla' the day he bought the phone.
Just by sliding it into his pocket!
me, have no screen guard & not a scratch yet in over a year
funny

Crack on the screen

Well, inspite of the toughness guarantee of the guerilla glass, the screen of my Galaxy S cracked when it fell down. Is there a way in which I can just replace the glass cover of the screen instead of changing the whole display which would cost a lot!!
Any links to where I can buy the glass and the procedure to install it would be really helpful..
Thanks in advance!!
It's unfortunately not possible, you can only buy a whole display&digitizer part :/ ... I heard some guy did it, he heated it and then he somehow detached these parts apart but I think it's not possible to do it at home :/ ... and I don't think it worth to buy that part individualy, I would rather buy some used SGS from ebay, use display and digitizer and then for example sell the other parts ...or buy some broken SGS with screen&digitizer in good condition for noticeably better price

The display and digitizer in our phone is one piece. Sad thing, but it is not possible to split them apart.

Thanks a lot for the responses!! Guess I'll have to go for a new display after all..
