Replacement bezel came without screw holes - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i have had a nightmare replacing this screen... the first one i ordered, the cabel wouldnt reach from the digitizer to the mainboard so i couldnt connect it, so i sent it back and got a refund, and now my second one is missing the little brass pieces that hold ALL the screws in place. I do still have the original bezel with the pieces but i have absolutely no idea how to get them out.
Any ideas/suggestions? I considered superguleing them in place but that is kinda a last resort
Thanks

No ideas guys? Really? Here are some pics of what I mean

Did the first one have the same problem?

They're probably glued in, so I would think it would be possible to remove them. It seems weird though that it wouldn't come with the screw holes. I would have thought that it would. If it's not too much trouble I'd move them to the new bezel, otherwise I'd get a refund and buy from a different place.

Check out http://www.globaldirectparts.com/HTC-Droid-Incredible-Replacement-Repair-Parts-s/6283.htm or http://www.repairsuniverse.com/htc-incredible-droid-replacement-screens.html
They both have a pretty good selection. I'd check to make sure the pics have the screw holes in them before you buy them. Amazon has a really good return policy, but I don't know about either of these as I've never bought from either.

i need to get myself a replacement, like a fool i was showing off to some iphone fanboys how resilient the back cover is, i had seen a video of a guy crumpling it up like crazy and it dint crack or leave any marks, well i was unlucky, it didnt break, but there is a crack/bump on it now,
mate do you know if that "Full Housing Battery Cover Samsung i9100 Galaxy S 2 II" includes the silver bezel bit on the front of the Galaxy S II?
Ask on ebay matey the best thing to do would be to ask the seller.

I had an idea to contact a CNC operator and get them to mill out some aluminum bezel and backplates for us
how cool would that be
also having aluminum trigger and side guards
would be the coolest thing ever.

Give it a shot and let us know, prob won't fit correctly or fall apart after a good drop.
Is there a fake Eclipse? I'd be up for trying that for the right price.

will wait btw, where did you buy?
haven tried this particular case before, but i've personally bought a couple of other cases from ali express. The quality varies quite a bit. Some are better, some dont really fit. The aluminium bumper i bought for myself fit like a glove, and was of pretty good quality, while a different one that i had purchased for my girlfriend didn't really fit well. Have to look at feedback and orders before ordering from there.

Yes I have it although it is very very small and very hard to tell (only if in sunlight at the proper angle. Shouldn't happen at all? No. But not enough to bother my OCD.....yet. If it gets worse and I think it will become a problem I will pursue a replacement so I'd keep an eye on it.

Nope. Mine is not that bad. It's only doing it in one small area right above the front facing camera. If mine was like yours I don't think I could get used to it. Although it's difficult to tell from just one picture. What I have noticed is that lint /dust gets caught in the gap. Kinda sux....

Got another unit but this one is not as bad as my first. This one I can live with. But unfortunately this one still has the screen smearing issue, and dlink wifi issue. Which are the main reasons I returned the first unit. I've found some work around so I think Im gonna keep the phone this time around.

Are you guys worried about the gap??

Are you guys worried about your note 4 having a gap? after hearing about the first phones over seas having a gap between the screen and the metal frame. don't know what to think of it, I wanna get the note on the 17th, but am afraid to pre order the note just because I don't want to open my brand new phone to a gap..
Nope.
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
I'm not worried at all about it. I've had at least one spot, in every phone I've owned, that had a gap in it somewhere. If this is what it takes to bond metal to glass, I'm all for it. It actually states the gap is there in the manual, so it's a design feature. Check out this video about the gap.
www.youtube.com/embed/r3mNJCNnARo
If the glass was right up against the metal, the slightest drop would cause the screen to spider crack. The plastic had a little absorption abilities but metal will transfer any vibration directly to the glass...so you should be happy it is there...it shows they were thinking.
Had a pair of note 2's in the family for a couple of years they've worked fine all this time. They both had a gap that you could barely fit a sticky note in. Not really a problem.
