Looking for someone who is able to fix a cracked LCD on the Nexus 5. Dropped it on tarmac and it cracked. Usable but screen is practically gg. PM me if you are able to replace it for me. D821 Nexus 5 AU model.
Thanks.
Update: Looks like the LCD, Digitizer etc is one whole component as the display frame. You will need to buy the whole thing to get it replaced.
Well the screen works fine (touch slide etc) just that the glass is cracked. I'm not sure whats the extent of the damage.
Edit: after reading ifixit it looks like the whole front panel is one component on its own. Damage is $122 for OEM LCD + digitizer. I could technically do it on my own. but looking first if there is someone who can offer the service to me as I dont have much time..
Get on your own the screen replacement and go to Carrefour Subang . There's a stall inside , phone repair shop , the guy is willing to repair any unusual phone models as long as it's instruction is listed in ifixit or any other site which he can google it . At least it's done by someone with experience . I got my Dell Streak LCD replaced when nobody wanna do it as it was new then and also 2 Docomo units .
i called the LG guys and asked them to give me a quote. if its much higher than what I can find online + shipping then ill buy myself and take it to the shop
I had a cracked Nexus 4 and ordered the LCD from a Ebay seller in HongKong to be DIY few months ago. End up with a sub par LCD and broke it while installing. Then decided saving few bucks was not quite smart.LOL
the pictures posted by the seller looks more legit. and seller is based in Spain not HK or China
I seriously hope Nexus 5 glass is much easier to fix than Nexus 4.
mine just glass too. but from what i see on ifixit it looks like it is one whole component. most of the parts are glued together and phillips screwdriver can take out the screws easily. the glass is also glued to the frame but its stronger and harder to take out and replace... much easier to replace the whole front frame..
