Hey all. My wife'x Nexus 5 screen was shattered by a small vase falling on it.
I'm searching around on ebay and amazon and the price is coming out to about $80-100 for a screen/digitizer replacement.
I'm posting here to confirm if anyone else has any place they can recommend. My primary fear is that the replacement I might receive may be a cheaper/bad LCD (viewing angle wise). Is that a possibility? Or are all the replacements basically the same screen?
Thanks.

I usually get it off eBay. But there was this one seller on Amazon that I used for my N4 that was in the US and quick. Don't know if they are selling a N5 display but PM me and I can give you the deets. $80-100 is about the going rate on eBay at this time. I actually will recommend spending the extra $10-15 more for the frame included. It is a quick swap of internals at that point. Then flip the broken display up on ebay and recoup about $20 back.

Yup exactly. Really quick switch out. Just swap internals. Getting the display off of the frame is annoying since LG uses a silicon adhesive to bond the display to the frame. This makes it more resistant to heat. It is better to just sell the broken one to someone who has the time to separate all 3 components.

I am also looking to replace my broken screen. I know this is a 2 month old thread but the price listing for that right now is over $300. So I'm just wondering if I can ask you if you got your part and where? Thanks.

Ya that was the first place I saw when I initially started looking for the part but they seem to be sold out mostly and more expensive than other listings I've seen, I guess because they are OEM parts. I'll keep an eye on the site but continue looking.

I would like to order off of ebay, problem is I have zero experience ordering from dealers on ebay. What should I be looking for from sellers other than their ratings?
The pricing seems to be $1 to $50 difference for the screen + frame varying from China to the States but offer what seems to be the same product.

Cheap htc digitizers
This is my first post, so I can't post links, but search on DealExtreme and you will find cheap digitizers for HTC.
These are probably not genuine, but worth the gamble?
Are any of these models compatible with the Aria?

Can get them on eBay though for ~$50.
wholesalegadgetparts.com has them for a little under $50.00. OEM markings, it fits, it works, fast shipping. Mine arrived in 2 days regular post (free). Follow guide on repairsuniverse.com. Be careful with the sticky stuff that holds the screen to the frame or you will have to replace it too.
Hello all.
It is compatibile digitizer and lcd between aria and gratia?
I see on Ebay that touch screen for aria is cheaper than for gratia.
Yeah it's the same.
Digitizer
Did you get the screen yet? My wife shattered her screen 3 days after the release of the Intruder (Aria) I found a new one online for $45 with tax and shipping. had to play with the stickers a little to stop light from shinning out of the sides but it was real easy replacement .....Ill look through my records if you still need it.
does the digitizer works like the original one? no problems at all?
I'm wondering if you can get an original one, beside buying a phone for parts.
Hey all, So my white nexus has a cracked glass. I know to replace it would cost me about $150 since It's recommend to replace the whole kit. How much do you think i can sell this phone on ebay? Wondering if It's worth selling instead of fixing. I do like the phone but I rather put that $150 towards another phone. Maybe Nexus 4 when it comes back in stock. Pic attached. Thank you for your feedback..

There are a lot of factors that can apply when selling damaged items. For example, if any of the internals are salvageable or if the device is able to boot. Anyway, from my research on sold items on ebay the normal (grey) Galaxy Nexus - "sold for parts" can be as little as $30 and as high as $130. In your case most buyers would want the body to be in perfect condition so that they can do a body swap with their grey colored ones or a screen swap. Considering the fact that ones that work are selling for $275-$399 I believe you could get to $150 if you tried. Just my opinion though. I cannot say for a fact you will get that much. It all depends if the market is there. You can always set a reserve on ebay so if bidders don't bid up to or past the reserve then the item doesn't sell. Just an idea. Good luck!

do you still own it? I am looking for a motherboard to replace my broken one.
I live in Canada so buying from ebay or somewhere canadian would be helpful.
If you bought it from the Google Play store there's a chance you might get a replacement. There have been people who have called in saying they broke their screen and Google replaced the phone. It's YMMY, but it's worth a shot first before looking around to buy a new panel.
There are plenty of screen replacements on eBay for around $100

Not sure about the quality of those ones though. Could be knock offs or faulty. Unless someone knows a trusted seller?
I'll try contacting google but the screen replacements are for americans only.

With ebay you have to do some research. Find what you're looking for, then read the seller feedback and search for the item you're looking to buy. If people are leaving positive feedback about it, then you shouldnt have anything to worry about. I buy iPhone screen replacements all the time and havent had an issue yet.

I've purchased three N5 replacement screens which I carefully researched and went with the ones that seemed to be the best rated sellers (not just the cheapest option). I would never again go that route. IMHO but none of the screens were Corning Gorilla Glass 3. They each had issues that stock phones did not (dead pixels, attracted dust like a dust magnet, changed the touch characteristics, etc...). Last phone that I needed to replace a screen for I ended up going with Play Store and they did a free exchange of the unit.
I found a solution. LG in Canada charges a flat rate of $150 to fix the display which is much better than $200+ from local shops.
Google will send you another Nexus 5 if you bought it directly from them.
Might as well keep that $150 and put it towards a newer device (Nexus 6) .

I would just dump the Nexus 5 and save the money for the Nexus 6 or pick up the new Moto G.
Hi
I'm about to try replace my screen on my OPO. There are just so many sellers, it's hard to choose one.
Either way I need the type A with the keypad light.
Many sellers does not specify wither which type or if it's with or without the keypad lights. And sometimes the picutures of the product does not match.
I'm very intrested of which seller from eBay/Alibaba etc you have bought from and are satiesfied with the product.
I want some recommendations so my buy is somewhat more % to work
Thanks.
I have seen the following suggested: vifocal This includes the screen, digitizer, and frame, so it's an easier job to fix than some other purchases. You will still need a sticker for holding down the battery.
There is also a suggestion at the top of the page that is just the screen and digitizer. It is on Alibaba.

Thanks for answer. The Vifocal one I have seen as well. But there is only 1 reference to it as I can find and the communication/support was not so good either. So it does not feel like a good/safe choice.
The alibaba has only 5 sellings and only 2 reviews and 1 one them says defective so that is not a good/safe choice either
Was hoping that there are confirmed good sellers with working product by XDA people
I have already stripped down my broken phone into pieces and only need a new screen to install.
Buy from vifocal, I bought mine from eBay and it has touchscreen issues. The top half of screen registers 2 touches for on and renders it useless so now I have to purchase another. Alibaba/vifocal I would recommend, no matter where you purchase it will be slow shipping from China just stay away from eBay. Also you can use a or b screen they just have to be threaded through different holes in the frame

But, I can't really find anyone who can say that the screen from Alibaba works as it should. The seller only sold 5 of them and only 2 reviews and one of them was defective. Does not seem like a safe bet? Or do you have tried the screen from Alibaba or knows someone who can tell?

Will try my new screen this week.

Will the screen really stuck good with only 3M tape?
I have tired the screen and it seems to work and now to go ahead with the real install.
Will only tape work or need some glue of some kind? Thanks.
I replaced my screen with one from eBay. First lcd didn't work but the next did work ok.
I attached the new screen with double sided tape, which I used a lot for sure.
I got some time today to rebuild my borken OPO!
The screen works perfectly! Even the buttons lights up! Not as well as my new phone but still. Screen is really well responsive.

I bought from the AliExpress seller.
So...I polished my HWatch a little too much and wore off part of the bezel.....In my incessant searching, I found this.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ori...3489-4c2a-acd6-843db467ef02&priceBeautifyAB=0
I hope this helps anyone looking for a replacement bezel / screen. I purchased one myself....waiting for delivery. However, it does not come with a side button. I plan on using mine....but have no idea how to place it on the new bezel. The seller indicates one needs a professional tool, but does not specify what.
Update: They indicate that they have cases with the button. I'm looking forward to replacing my beat up one. $14 for a shiny new watch, can't be beat!
Thanks for your suggestions. May i see what damage have you done to your bezels? Just out of curiosity
Thanks for the information! The contact points on the back of my HW are completely burned. I ordered replacement case + back for $10, allowing me to repair!
