65 dollars for the fingerprint scanner and that doesn't include and import tax is not happening. When the scanner itself is on 10 pound ish itself, I've contacted a company who've said they are going to see if they can get the parts. I've used them before and the parts are all OEM which is good. I'll just have to put up with it until the parts become available.

All sorted now. Replacement glass and fingerprint sorted and all for the price of about £25 which was a result. And as good as new, looks wise atleast. Won't be putting it under water to test that side out.

Where did you but the fingerprint sensor? Did it just work after replacing it? I've replaced it and now says "Unable to use fingerprint sensor. Please contact a customer center".

thank's for sharing! from where did you order?how much shipping?
Hi, do you know if this bezel:
http://www.chinagadgetland.com/front-bezel-cover-for-motorola-atrix-4g-mb860-p-10007155.html
will replace the casing around the hdmi and charging port as I have snapped mine and the phone is slightly lose in the dock.
Shipping was only $4.
Not sure if thats the side, but it does not look like it to me.
Though this seems like a good vendor, they're hardly cheap.
I've seen the Atrix's LCD for ~$60 and it was over $70 here.
are the replacement part available on ebay not good?
if i wish to replace parts because touch isn't working and no problems with glass then do i have to replace the whole screen+digitizer or just the digitizer?

Your glass screen is your digitizer so, yes and no lol but you won't have to replace the LCD underneath the digitizer.
I bought a digitizer+frame off of ebay for about the same price as the digitizer this website. It was pretty easy to replace, as cell phone repairs go. It was a little scuffed up when I got it because it was used, but it fixed my issues!
Just received my fingerprint scanner today.
Worked perfectly by the way.
Two cautions:
1. Does not come with the bottom piece of the fingerprint scanner, only the scanner part. What I did was remove the old scanner via force and just super glued the new one on top of the bottom piece.
2. Came marked up by a permanent marker where the scanner is, but easily removed by alcohol.

Where/When can I get a replacement camera module?

I ordered my Nexus 5X from bhphotovideo, shipping to Mexico. Sadly, I got a defective camera and bhphotovideo doesn't want to comply with customs here in Mexico so if I exchange my item I'll have to pay import taxes again (about 147 usd(even with this the phone was cheaper than buying it here in Mexico)).
I think the best option for me would be to replace the camera (it looks really easy) but I haven't been able to find a replacement camera module at a decent price.
Do you guys know a page where I could buy this? Or does someone knows when they might become available?
contact Google for a replacement/repair. they are usually better at customer service than LG. Ultimately call LG for a repair quote. It shouldn't be much.
what's wrong with it?

mate that looks more like dust between the lens and the back cover... i've seen this happen in a dslr where dust goes between the lens and the image sensor
if LG fails to repair your device (i say they will fix it) then you can always open it to clear the dust out.

I think that the spot might be in the sensor itself but it is worth a try
Will removing the back cover void the warranty?
Well I tried opening an though I couldn't remove the black spot it moved to another place... so I'm guessing it some dust really really stuck to the inner lens?
Any ideas of what I can use to clean it?

they sell cans that contain compressed air.. specially used for electronics.. you could try that if there's any opening around the lens.. but i doubt there will be any opening. to prevent dust going in, in the first place.
http://gokimco.com/blog/using-compressed-air-dusters-to-clean-electronic-circuit-boards
here's what it looks like
the first thing i'd do is try to figure out where the dust is sitting. most likely its just between the lens and the back cover lens which would make it really easy to fix
Today while sleeping I dropped my pillow on the charger of the nexus... and it fell to the floor
When I used the camera again the spot was gone and the camera is now working correctly D:
I got lucky I guess <3

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!

How to attach fingerprint scanner replacement

Hi everyone!
I bought a new display and a new fingerprint scanner. Now, on the old one the scanner was solidly glued to the screen. Does anyone have any ideas on how I should attach the new scanner to the new screen?
Like, is there thin double sides tape I could use? Just an example. On MIUI someone told me to use epoxy, would that block the ultrasonic fingerprint you think?
I attached some photo's, two are of the old scanner, still with some white display on it. it needs to be on the small glass windows in the other photo. The glass of the home-button on the old scanner is glues directly with some very thin-spread glue.
This is the new one I have:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/New...-ID-Fingerprint-Sensor-Parts/32803906214.html
What would you think is the best way to attach a ultrasonic fingerprint scanner to a display?
Please think with me! Thank you so much
Just use some epoxy resin! You know, the one that comes in two parts, and you mix together.
Take one that hardens in 3-5 minutes, prepare only a little glue, you wont need more than an equivalent of a small coin.
Make a test first, take same quantity of each resin component and mix it gently for about 10 seconds,then apply it to something you don't care about (ex. the old broken screen, and glue the old sensor into it). Wait the required time and then check that it's nicely glued.
If you made the mix wrong it won't work well and may keep in liquid state.
Have some alcohol to clean (Alcohol for wounds works well), the epoxy cleans easily with it when it's liquid. But once it has hardened it will be a nightmare!
When you are about to glue the sensor on the new screen, apply some epoxy onto the sensor, making a uniform coating of about 0.3mm or so, no too much, but it must be a little in excess to fully fill the gap between the sensor and the screen.
I often use it to repair phones in special cases as this one, never had a problem!
I should go for UV glue, I think this is what they do on manufacturer.

If you where buying on Aliexpress why didn't you just buy one that was already glued? It costs a couple of dollars more.

Could you please share a link? I didn't find a screen with working fingerprint sensor that cost only a couple of dollars more
Hey, did it work? I mean the epoxy surely does work, but does the sensor function properly? I would be willing to pay those 100$ for the original screen, but all of them are out of stock, and 150$ is a bit too much That means I have to go the oem screen assembly route :/
My screen died in milkwater btw.
did you solve the problem? i have to do same process but i dont know how
same here.
looking for soolution
Did you solve the problem? did you try to glue the fingerprint sensor to the new lcd? Could you please tell us about your experience, I am in the same situation
I'm gonna be trying this, but it will be a month or so till I get my new screen.

Where do all of you see screens for 100$??? Every OEM screen that I've seen on eBay runs from 50-70$ CAD so like 40-55$ USD
I looked in google and Aliexpress, I dont want an OEM screen- I want an original one, but noone sells it for a reasonable price. I found a original LCD with OEM digitizer though (40$), and thats what I went for. Just waiting for the package.
I bought the highest rated fingerprint sensor also, gonna report if it works.
@Piciu256 Tell us how is it going, how will you connect and if it works.
Could you please share the links and how long will it take for it to arrive to your house.
I can share some ideas with you.
I bought my screen assembly on Dragon Tt site, it's the "oem glass+original LCD" one, the fingerprint reader is this one: s. aliexpress. com/jemyIrQN
Should be 2 weeks tops till the LCD comes, then I'm going to use a standard 2 piece epoxy to assemble the thing, then the b7000 glue to attach the assembly to the frame.
Gonna report again after the fact if it went well.
Interested in this as well, following this topic . Just busted up my screen, the buttons and fingerprint scanner don't or barely work anymore.
Can someone recommend a good replacement screen, or is the dragon-tt the best option?
Thanks
I'm replace LCD and bought new fingerprint sensor. New sensor replce with b7000 blue, but fingerprint doesn't work.
Anybody know how to resolve this problem?
The sensor is bad or the b7000 glue is not appropriate for this operation (why you no use 2 part epoxy as sudgested?) either way you are fckd- you cannot remove the sensor without destroying it, and you probably cannot clean the surface well enough without damaging the screen to install a new sensor so no fingerprint for you.
My screen came in today, I'll report in 2 days if all works. @edit the epoxy is curing atm, its great because its so sticky- you just need to locate it in the beginning and not touch it for few hours, it makes its magic by itself- no need to anker anything down
The sensor didn't work for me either, tho that might be a case of my phone not working properly as the previous one wasn't working either.
The screen is great quality, the digitizer sticks up a little more than original though.
If you want to try yourself- use epoxy, it seems perfect for this use, the sensor is 5$ so it doesn't cost you anything
ps. Do any of you also experience this weird glitch in chrome that when I type something longish then the app takes up to 1,6GB (I believe the system doesn't grant more) RAM and freezes? (this post was enough to freeze twice and crash)
Hey guys, someone replace fingerprint and works fine? I'll paste mine What do you use for this? epoxy is safe?
thanks

Question Help! Fingerprint sensor replacement. Where to buy a part?

Just got accidental damage to my Pixel 6 Pro's screen and fingerprint sensor. Screen replacement isn't a problem but I can't find fingerprint sensor anywhere. Please help!
Maybe ebay. That's sounds like a hard impact, the mobo may be damaged as well. BGA chipsets don't take high G loading or board flexing insults well.
Hmmm, isn't the fingerprint reader part of the replacement screen (see the disassembly video) ?

Nothing wrong with anything but fingerprint sensor. It was damaged during screen replacement. It's very fragile and glued to the screen quite strongly. Checked eBay, Aliexpress already. Found nothing.

No, it isn't. Screens are sold without fingerprint sensor. Other, more clever smartphone makers don't attach fingerprint scanner to screen. Google approach is unique, even where thereis no need in it.

Try connecting (or searching for) Google for an OEM parts distributor (that will be fun).
If the phone works as is less the sensor use as such until you can get the part.
That's a raw deal...

Can't see the way to ask Google itself for help finding the part. There is no such option. Using this phone without fingerprint with missing face unlock is a pain. Suggesting to sell the phone cheap ASAP since it still has some value. Pretty sure it will be a high demand for this part for the same reason. I see the listing for the Pixel 6 Pro with the same issue on eBay already.

And this is very concerning. The phone is on the market for quite a while but replacement parts are barely available. Usually Aliexpress is getting smartphones replacement parts at the day of release but not this time around . Something is very wrong.
