Replacement Screen

---

Hi All

I managed to crack my screen, touch panel works fine, but the LCD below it is cracked and starting to run.

Does anyone know where I can get one (Shipped to UK) to replace?

Thanks

Hi

Thanks for the response,

Do you know of any fitting guides?

Cheers

No I don't. But unless you did something like this before, I wouldn't recommend you to do it yourself.

UKTamo, did You already replace your screen?

Judging from the videos taking the X1 apart requires tearing of a lot of protective foils and shieldings. Can they be reattached in an acceptable way? Usually these foils are designed to be glued to the device ONCE and replaced when the device is taken apart, can they be re-used (since replacements are not around afaik)?

I scratched my screen and since a new one is not all that expensive I'm thinking about replacing it, but it would mean taking the entire device apart, and I'm a little concerned about getting it back together in an ordered manner with all these fragile foils and strong adhesives in it...

I've already replaced the lcd of my xperia with success.

You can easily glue the foils with stick glue for paper.

$65? Not bad at all. I know I'm going to break my screen at some point. Just seems inevitable that something so nice and shiny is bound to fall under my foot / kneecap / arse / limitless rage / limitless clumsiness at some point. Happened to my N95 within 8 months, afterall. I feel much less scared of the situation now I know it won't be £150 as I'd been fearing.

Good find, dude.
