Redmi 1s glass cracked, but touch and display still works. What to do? - Xiaomi Redmi 1S

My Redmi 1s fell face down on the floor from about 2-3 feet and unfortunately, the screen cracked. The touch and display are still fully working. Called Xiaomi India customer support and they said that they have no idea about how much it might cost to get the screen replaced.
Called the exclusive service center in Delhi, they've quoted a price of Rs. 4.2k. I can't afford that.
Update: I ordered a replacement screen from AliExpress and replaced it to get my phone working as good as new. I have shared my experience in this blog post of mine. Might help others who unfortunately enter the same situation.
Then I found this alibaba link on the miui forum: http://m.aliexpress.com/item/322154...dmi-1S-Touch-Panel-Replacement-with-Digitizer
Is it the same as the Redmi 1s touch panel available on ebay India?
Would this spare part be enough to resolve my issue? Will it be possible for me to replace it myself (there is a tutorial present on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKHPtfRaAa8) or to take this (alibaba) screen to a local shopand pay them Rs. 100-200 to get it replaced? Or if anyone knows any shop in Delhi which can replace the broken glass only (and not the whole display) with a new one?

4200 just for display?
U can get used redmi 1s at this price

I happened to as well. But not as bad as yours and everything's working fine. I tried calling them but they left me with the same answer.

just use tempered glass screen guard

Redmi 1s Touch and Display are attached, which means that you cannot separate them, If your Touch and Display is working but the glass is broken that simply means that your Touch is broken but it is working and + no damage on your display. But unfortunately Due to the attachment of Touch and Display, your Display is also waste. you cannot separate them. In this case Flipkart will not Replace the device and Service Center will not claim the warranty because of self damage. Service Center in Mumbai (Borivali) are charging Rs 3700/- and in market Display and Touch together are available at prize of Rs 2700/-, Actual cost of device is 6000/- and then spending so much for just repairing is Useless, I suggest you to sell your Redmi 1s motherboard this is only better solution for you right now.

Happened to me once with my s4, the glass was cracked but the amoled panel was working just fine. I decided it was worth taking risk and decided to leave to a man in the mobile market. The man said there's no guarantee, the panel can get damaged during removal with the help of heat and re-applying and that he will charge 2000 pkr regardless of the outcome (glass + labour). In the end it worked for me. I was in your place I would take the gamble.
You guys are forgetting something: OnePlus does not sell parts to anyone! So anything you see on ebay is not official.
The only way to get official replacement parts is to send the phone to OnePlus service center.
Screen replacement costs about 150€ IIRC (covert that to your currency).

m not gonna do that myself .. just asking for approx costs like will i have to replace the screen as well or they will replace just glass ... will definitely take it to customer care as getting repaired outside will void my warranty ... so just asking to have an estimate of the cost or repair

Ask oneplus, my friend replaced his glass only with a fake glass one that broke in his pocket, best bet it to bring it to the customer support and get a glass screen protector asap.

Happened to me 1 month ago and sent to Oneplus for repair it: got it back after 1 week from Poland with an expence of 90 Euro in total.
Consider that the cost include transportation from my home in Italy to Poland and viceversa with UPS.
Looking if there was someone else in Italy repairing it, and I found one with a cost of 220 Euro (already tested with a OP2 of a colleague of mine)... sparepart costs 190 Euro.
Honestly, if possible for yourself, I would highly suggest you to open a ticket in OnePlus.
replaced few units "glass only", it takes time, but customers is happy with result and price
just foned oneplus ppl n they said full lcd needs to b replaced :/ n cost is 12000 rupees about 180-190 dollars ...
alone glass from ebay costs just 1500 rupees about 22-25 dollars ..
should i get it repaired from outside ?
what i think is its just front glass thats broken but scared that if i get it repaired n after removing glass it comes out that screen also damaged then i will loose warranty also by getting repaired from outside and have to buy screen also

Glass only, it absorbed all the force.. But getting glass of a sandwiched amoled panel is tricky.. Really tricky. Watch it on youtube.. Its better to replqce the whole screen in my opinion. Just send it to oneplus imo.

bro use the servify Accidental damage that came with the device it'll be done for freee
Anyone see this ?
link
i want to know if someone try this on the OP3 , my screen is broke and i want to replace for this ..
its say LCD , not AMOLED .
the color black in LCD be like the black color on a IPS screen?
If screen is working fine, reacts to touch, then glass only repair can be done.
@SunnyGrewal11, I think you are Indian and if you registered for accidental damage protection plan provided by servify then rest assured.
Because under this plan servify provides screen replacement for just nominal cost of Rs. 1000. yes only Rs.1000.
Contact servify for more information.
======
1 month back i also cracked screen due to accidental fall. I just contacted servify. they properly guided me to file a claim for repair.
To file claim you have to download app "OnePlus care By servify" from play store.
Procedure to file claim is given in app itself and its simple to understand.
After providing necessary documents I taken device to authorized repair center ( oneplus partnerd with several 3rd party repair centers across country).
I paid just Rs.1000 via app.
I got device repaired in only 4 days.
=====
Contacts -
Servify - 1800 121 4984
OnePlus india - 1800 102 8411
(Both Numbers are Toll free)
If someone will decide to teardown and sell by parts, i need battery cover and pls. contact me...
I dropped my OP3 on the concrete last week. I had the original sandstone case, but the impact was very hard so the case corner was damaged and it went through. Now there is little scratch on a phone's corner. Without the case, the device would have been shattered.
I'm now worried about my phone. How long was the height of fall. Also you should try contacting servify.

do you have any recommendations on where to order front glass replacements for the OnePlus 3? all the parts i've found so far sound a little doubtful...is there any source with quality glass comparable to the original?
Comparable to original, is only cutted straight from original lcd assembly using wire. All replacements "china oem", "hq" "a++" will not be the same as original which cames with brand new phone. Sometimes in eBay peoples selling bronken lcd assembly with good condition glass.

broken screen. i need your helo

Hey guys my screen is broken, but the touch screen is not, but some guys told me to buy the touch screen too. If someone here got broke his mi max and he replace the screen please I would like to know which screen he bought... I heard a lot of things about the colours. That the market screens are not original and the colours are very weak. So PLEASE.. I need you IMMEDIATELY
In generally...
Firs of all check with Aida64 which panel is used as their is more than one used in Mi Max. Usually it is Tianma R63350 & all do Tianma have a very good distribution network across the EU you won't find any references for this particular display. Second part should be to check if it's just touch panel/protective glass broken or you need a complete set (touch, glass, LCD).
Digitizer/glass will cost you 8.30$
https://www.parts4repair.com/touch-screen-digitizer-for-xiaomi-mi-max-white/
Complete pack with LCD/Digitizer and glass will cost you 35~36$ (tip don't pay more for it).
https://www.parts4repair.com/complete-screen-assembly-for-xiaomi-mi-max-white/
Warning; before purchasing the set be certain to see & confirm (from seller side) how its a same LCD display!
For additional info, finding possible better deal, replacement guides and cetera just search in browser for "xiaomi mi max display replacement".
My personal advice is that when you purchase the part's gave them for replacing to skilled professional in mobile services repair shop close to you & naturally try to bargain about the price.
Best regards.
I just bought whatever was cheapest on eBay. I haven't noticed any issues with the screen but the three buttons below the screen are no longer evenly lit, it used to bother me but now I don't even notice.
I have never replaced the touchscreen and screen separately, but when trying to replace my screen I definitely broke both so I would recommend buying both parts. Try to get the glue for the screen too! I had to use some super glue so I am pretty sure I can never replace it again.

Lenovo p2 replacement screen

Hi I'm wondering where I could source a replacement screen for this device as none of my local phone repair shops seem to be able to source one
http://s.aliexpress.com/BRzQZBBV
Here you go and good luck with the replacement
P.S.
If you are looking for the black model, follow this link: Replacement Display
Bump
Has anybody got a reliable source? There seems to be a global shortage of these bloody screens and besides the official Lenovo replacement costing 90% of the price of the phone, there are no other options available anywhere. Nothing on AliExpress, BangGood, Alibaba, eBay and anywhere else in my coutry.

+1. Cracked my screen last week, still fully functional but crack pattern is expanding and I don't trust it to be usable for a long time to come.
Been searching for replacement screen assembly but found nothing. Going to try contacting Lenovo technical support in my country now...
Lenovo tech support pointed me to a repair firm.
Repair firm asks to send the phone in, after which they provide a quote. If I don't agree to get it fixed, I have to pay a few tens for problem analysis. Like wtf, it's a cracked screen, you change it, it's a standard job with a standard cost that you can give me before I send it in!
Called another repair firm. They can't get the screen.
Apparently these screens are just not available.
They are on Aliexpress right HERE.
Expensive as hell though, considering you can get a new P2 for 180 euro's or a new screen for 160.

Thanks, that one is gone again though. And yeah at that price it's ridiculous.
But I've just found this: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/For-...lgo_pvid=b8eb5b04-c098-4a2b-a5ea-f9e34e6da00f
$113, which amounts to €94, with free shipping. This seems acceptable.

Well, the seller had just one of them so I bought it. Now let's hope my cracked screen stays functional for the time it takes to get the new screen here...

Seems like nowhere.
The order I made on aliexpress was subsequently cancelled because of it being "out of stock".
Options at this point seem limited to:
1. get it fixed for stupid money (not even sure whether any fixing service can get their hands on it)
2. try to locate a damaged second-hand phone with working screen you can buy for less
3. if your LCD and touch input still work fine like mine, just put up with it and wait for some months until people start upgrading and the asking prices for second-hand models start to drop
4. meanwhile, search on aliexpress or ebay every single day and hope a screen gets available for an acceptable price
I dropped my phone yesterday and the screen shattered from end to the other but the phone is working fine. I have just ordered the replacement front glass off of ebay for £19.99 from HK but seems a bit too cheap to me but worth a gamble at that price. Only problem is I have no idea how to take the phone apart and separate the glass from the digitizer! Are there instructions about I could follow or is my best bet taking it to a mobile phone repair shop to get it done?
I can post the ebay number if anyone is interested.

You tube. Check the entire display removal tutorial. Then check glass replacement tutorial for galaxy s8.
After taking off display, you have to chip off the glass from display after heating it with a hot air gun. Then remove the residual UV glue from panel. Then after making sure panel is clean, apply new UV glue on center, then place glass on top and then press from center gently to spread the glue evenly and that's it.

Thank you but i'm never going to manage to do that myself, I don't own a hot air gun for a start. Looks like i've wasted £20 plus the postage as I doubt i'll find a mobile phone repair shop to do it for me, i'd happily pay someone to do it if I could find someone!

The phone is very slippery with a slim profile and of course the size. It slipped from my trackpant pocket while riding bike at 50 km/h(big one). I am surprised with only cracked glass, everything working fine. Every OP5 and Honor8pro user should used a cover or case with screen protector. The price of new screen is 6595 rs from honor service center and have to pay full amount upfront, only after that they will order new display that will take 5 to 6 business days and will repair it in 2 hrs. As per Honor service center executive.

Honor 8 Pro cracked screen - #MeToo
Hi Forum members,
I also am having this issue, having dropped the mobile inadvertently.
Crack is visible and pronounced, but phone is working alright!
Great phone, giving excellent service for over 8 months now!
I wanna know how something.
So, a few days ago, I accidentally dropped my phone and broke the rear camera lens. It cracked the glass and its not covered under warranty. I wanna know how much it will cost to replace the lens. The screen is fine cause I had a screen protector on but the lens is completely gone. Thanks. I know the thread is old but I didn't feel like opening a new one.

The problem is that I don't have a credit or debit card and legally can't get one for another year or two. I'm 16. I usually opt for cash on delivery so that really isnt an option for me. If it had cash in delivery available, I would have bought it. I'm also pretty sure that I'll do more damage than repair. Thanks, anyway.

Also cracked glass on right upper corner just by dropping from half a foor on ceramic tiles.
I would say it is bad build quality as this my 7th phone.
Earlier dropped droid turbo from 5 feet and it slided till door of the office from middle but not a single dent or scratch on it.
Lumia 920 dropped several times from 2 feet height but only minor dent on it.
Honor first time and gone.

Display replacement cost in India for Zenfone 5Z

Hello! My Zenfone 5Z's front glass shattered badly after taking a fall. Does anyone know how much the official ASUS service centres charge for display assembly replacement in India? Also the display and digitizer are working fine. Is there any way to get it repaired for a lower price? I really like the display on this phone and would rather not put a low quality panel even if its a bit cheaper.
If someone could suggest a place for repair in Mysore, I'd very much appreciate it!
Around 7K.
Unity building and Cunningham Rd in Bangalore.
