[PICS] [DIY] Replacing my Screen

Decided to replace my screen myself since my phone is out of warranty. I bought an OEM Samsung screen (that includes the frame) so that I wouldn't have to mess with glue at all. It was about $150 for the screen.
I also decided to replace the USB port because of charging issues I've been having. The USB part cost about $10, and finally the outer frame / casing (with a new back) ran me about $20. So overall it was almost $200, but I have a new phone again I bought all parts off ebay and so far I'm really satisfied! Everything fits perfectly, and the phone looks flawless again.
I only used this youtube video as a guide, it was all I needed. It was pretty quick too, only took me about 30 minutes or so to do everything.

Mid-operation: had to test to make sure the new screen worked before I put it all together:
After:
Oh yeah, I did this myself because after my screen cracked my warranty was voided. I dropped $150 on the screen because I didn't want to get an off-brand screen of lower quality (or risk anything not fitting). Nothing but OEM Samsung here.
Hope you enjoyed

that looks awesome, it's pretty much a brand new phone now. if you dont mind could you provide the link for the OEM Samsung screen + frame for $150?
thanks

As good as new!
Beamed from my Grouper.

The auction is expired, but just search ebay and you'll find one. Make sure to get the right one (ie: verizon one won't work with a sprint frame, etc).

Sure thing. The screen is great! It's like brand new again. I'm extremely impressed for how smooth it went doing it myself.

Awesome!
My nexus broke on my birthday on the 11th (My friend broke it) .. The phone is with the Service Center, they're saying it'll take about a month to fix it. I can't wait to get a new shiny nexus!

[Q] Anyone else have a gap like this?

There is a small gap between the face and the body on my watch. Does anyone else have this as well?

Wow that's weird. Return that one! Definitely not ip67

Mine doesn't do this, but the two I have show stuck pixels. The quality control (if there is any) on these things is really disheartening. Dead pixels and now things like this start showing up?!? They hyped the watch for months, you'd think they could figure out how to make it correctly?

I talked with Moto support and they escalated it saying they hadn't seen that issue before. Since I bought it from Best Buy just 2 days prior they recommended I take it back and get another.
Well of course they are out so I just got a refund. Back to the waiting game again. :crying:

just checked mine, doesnt have it.

Went back to BB today and they had a silver. No gap, no stuck pixels, and it's charging as we speak. Since I used it for a few days before having to return it, I really missed some of the functionality. Will be nice to have one again. :victory:

Nope. Mine just had a gap like this on the left but not the right

[Q] OPO Origami dock?

Hi
Got my OPO from an online store in Malaysia (I'm from the Philippines). It comes with this extra package
I've watched a lot of OPO unboxing but I haven't seen this before

At the back
Inside is this thingymajig. I'm pretty sure this is some sort of a dock or something
Rear view
Tried putting it together. With all my best efforts, I've failed.
Only got this far. I dunno how to build the back part.
I tried searching for it on the interwebz but to no success.
Can anyone please point me out to a tutorial on how to build this?
Extra info: My OPO doesn't come with the Cyanogenmod logo at the back (dunno if this is a good thing). And it's got ColorOS bundled (Now using temasek's).
TIA!!

Have you scanned that qr code? May be some info will be there.

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply. I was away on vacation lol.
I hope this will suffice. I dont really have access to a scanner. I just laid the thingy flat and PSed the background

Thank you very much!
How is the slot made? Is it folded inwards? If so, guess I'll have to work a bit with scissors and glue ?
Can you provide the measure of that big horizontal fold near the top, so that I could calculate its dimension (preferably in metric)? ☺
Thank you again! ?

no idea if this is right or not (dont have the dock) but it looks like it might be an opening for a "speaker"
if you look in the bottom of the slot where the phone sits, you can see that its open for the speakers.....so maybe the sound gets directed down and out the back side of the dock.....maybe?
dont have anything that I can draw, but the opening at the back might point towards the phone....so the sound kinda loops around.

Does the screen work outside the OS. In recovery for example?

I had a similar problem on a RedMi Note 3G after I applied too much pressure on the screen, now, I can't say if is exactly the same but if, then yes, it is hardware.

What did you do prior to this? Also can you get to recovery?

Your screen is damaged! Happens with me months ago while running, My sweat did this. My solution was a screen replacement

No it is not working any where. Not even in recovery. I tried to install a RR Rom using TWRP and when i tried to reboot after patching the rom, The screen started flickering. I thought it might be OS issue but i tried everything. I tried to restore to Stock OS & stock recovery using different tools but still I can't get the display properly.
Also my phone fell down while i was talking from my shoulder height. Nut that was a day before this happened.

But i am very sure there is no water involved in my case. The screen fell out of my hand from shoulder height which was a day before this flickering started

In my case was water but in yours was other thing. Anyway, your screen (LCD) is damaged. I'm afraid you'll need a replacement

Thnks for the info.
Can you suggest me some links for the screen.

Or look look on the aliexpress, you may find it even cheaper than on ebay

Check Amazon for omnirepair part. That's who I used for mine and they are top notch. And they provide decent tool set and support that makes job much easier. Slightly more expensive but with it in my opinion. I've had no issues except one spot that is slightly brighter.
