my lcd screen is broken made in china

Mandy, ETS is obviously a company that you are connected to and this could easily be taken for spam. I think we can make an exception at this time since you are asking a good market research question that may be useful to many.

Having checked out your video, I personally will not use the aftermarket screen as a replacement for my X. It just doesn"t have what I expect for a $1000 USD phone. I recognize that $300 USD for a replacement is hefty but the aftermarket screen does not appear to have the quality that I would expect for my phone.

Maybe your significant other tossed your phone off the balcony after discovering flirty texts with a certain coworker, or maybe you were just blackout drunk and dropped your phone on the club’s tile washroom floor while taking a shameless mirror selfie. Either way, your mobile’s glass screen likely looks like a drunken spider’s web.

Luckily for you, smartphone repairs in China are both affordable and fast. But before you venture off to your city’s electronics sales and repair market, we encourage you to browse these six helpful tips for repairing your phone screen:

In the case of phone glass and the LCD – or more recently AMOLED – screen underneath, it helps to know whether just one, or both, of these elements needs replacing (particularly so you can better estimate the cost).

While broken glass on the front of your mobile is obvious and easy to diagnose, a damaged screen (the part that actually displays all the programs and interface) can be a bit trickier to identify. Look for black spots, discolored areas, new lines and out-of-place patterns on your screen, as any of these may indicate a problem with the screen. Naturally, a totally black screen is a pretty good indicator that something is amiss.

One way to test your screen is to hold down on an app on your phone’s ‘desktop area’ until it starts vibrating, allowing you the move the app to new locations on your screen. Move the app to all parts of your display, if the app is unable to reach a certain area, this is a good indication that you’ll be fixing more than just broken glass.

From our experience, this may very likely be the most important step of all. When having your device"s screen or glass fixed, be sure to show the person doing the repair that all of its key components are in working order. In particular, be sure to demonstrate that both your front and rear cameras work, as well as the speaker and microphone.

We cannot count how many times we have heard of a phone being returned after a repair only for the owner to discover that the phone’s microphone (key for, you know, speaking on the phone) or cameras are no longer working. Also from experience: most repair people are unlikely to take your word that your camera was fine before you handed it over to them.

This should probably go without saying, but here we go anyway: having your mobile device repaired by someone other than a company technician from your phone’s particular brand will likely (like basically 100 percent) result in your warranty being voided.

Not every repair shop will give you the option of watching your phone’s crushed glass be replaced. This is because many smaller shops, particularly in electronics markets, will have your phone sent to an offsite repair area and tell you to come back in a few hours to collect it.

If possible, try and find a shop that will complete the repair in front of you. The main reason we encourage this is because we have heard several unfortunate stories where costumers have had their fully-functioning phone battery swapped out for one that can only hold a two-hour charge. Sad!

The price of having your phone’s glass or LCD screen replaced will depend greatly on the make and model of your phone, the honesty of the person fixing it and – like all things in Asia – your bargaining skills. If your local smartphone repair person wants RMB300 to replace your iPhone 6’s shattered glass, lowball them and offer RMB150. From our experience, repair people seem more inclined to budge on price when it comes to older model phones, meaning your brand new iPhone Xs Plus or Huawei P20 will likely have a higher price point and less discount wiggle-room.

Finding a good repair shop with honest staff who do repairs at a high quality and reasonable price can sometimes be difficult. If you manage to track down a good phone-fixing location, be sure to recommend it to your friends to save them the potentially costly and annoying trial-and-error process when having their glass or screen replaced.

Alibaba.com offers 34,107 phone screen repair products. such as machinery repair shops, retail, and home use. You can also choose from apple iphone, samsung, and oppo. As well as from 1 year, 18 months, and 2 years. And whether phone screen repair is provided.

Unfortunately, in most cases, you cannot fix a broken TV screen. TV manufacturers do not sell screen replacements, and there is no secondary market for used screens. That’s because the screen is the most expensive part of the TV, by far. Replacing it would cost more than buying a new TV!

In many cases, your local electronics or TV repair shop won’t even consider working on your broken TV screen. They know that it’s just not worth their time.

The BOE factory, where most US TV screens are made today, is almost a mile long and cost about 7 BILLION dollars to build! Sony, Samsung, LG, Vizio, etc. all buy their TV screens from BOE.

“Liquid Crystal display screens are made by putting two thin sheets of glass together. On one of the sheets transistor “cells” formed by first depositing a layer of indium tin oxide (ITO), an unusual metal alloy that you can actually see through. That’s how you can get electrical signals to the middle of a screen.

Then you deposit a layer of silicon, followed by a process that builds millions of precisely shaped transistor parts. This patterning step is repeated to build up tiny little cells, one for each dot (known as a pixel) on the screen. Each step has to be precisely aligned to the previous one within a few microns. Remember, the average human hair is 40 microns in diameter.”

This is the number one reason your TV screen is so costly – they are incredibly challenging to build, and as a result there are only a few companies in the world that make them.

I’ve also heard that only 1 out of every 3 TV screens pass testing at the END of the manufacturing process. That means 2 out of every 3 screens made are worthless!

The screens are made in China and then have to be shipped across the world to be sold in the US. The cost to ship them is high, and a lot of damage can happen during the journey.

So the complexity, and shipping both contribute to the high cost of TV screens. It’s why no one sells the screen separately, it just doesn’t make financial sense.

If your TV screen has an imperfection, discoloration, lines, streaks, spots, etc., then there is a good chance that your warranty will cover it (if it’s within the allotted time period). Most TV warranties are in place for the first year, and they cover these types of manufacturer defects.

And the even better news here is thatthe majority of issues you’re likely to encounter with your TV will happen within the first year (when you’re covered by the manufacturer).

You can always try selling it. Your broken TV isn’t worth much, but to the right person, it’s worth something. Someone who knows what they are doing will take your TV apart, and sell off each individual piece.

Technically, you could do this yourself, but it’s time consuming and you risk damaging the parts. I wouldn’t bother. Instead, try listing the whole TV for sale. Getting something for a broken TV it is better than nothing.

If it turns out no one is willing to buy it, you can try listing it on those same marketplaces for free!Tons of people usually respond when they can get something for no cost, even if it’s broken.

Local electronics stores typically recycle products that they sell. A great example of this is Best Buy. They have a nationwide recycling program. But keep in mind, they will charge you a small fee!

Your town likely collects e-waste. Check out your town/cities trash website and see what their policies are for electronic waste. Some towns have special pick up days, others have drop off locations. I would just call your city’s public works department and ask for a place to recycle or dispose of old electronics.

Buy a TV screen protector. You can buy a screen that covers your TV and protects it against damage, and many are waterproof! These provide great added protection from possible bumps and contact with liquids from pets and children.

Mount your TV on the wall.This way your television is up off the ground, and out of reach. It won’t stop your kids from throwing a toy at it, but at least they can’t bump into it, or accidentally knock something, or someone into it.

Don’t allow video games. This might sound harsh (especially for the kids), but I’ve heard too many stories of Nintendo Wii controllers being accidentally thrown at the TV. If you don’t hook up a video game console to your TV, this can’t happen.

Most TV repair shops won’t even bother trying to fix a broken screen. In the end, between a screen replacement and the repair costs, you’d spend the same amount for a brand new TV!

If your TV is cracked or damage because of something you did, your warranty is unlikely to cover it. In that case, consider selling your broken TV or disposing of it.

If you did a screen replacement and you feel like the new screen is not as good as the old one, then the above question is what you have running through your mind. Does the mobile screen quality actually degrade or reduce after you replace a broken screen?

The direct answer to this question is NO. A screen replacement does not reduce your display quality, neither does it degrade the screen quality. All replacement screens from the manufacturers are produced with the same quality as the original screens. They are designed to give you the same feel and look as though you were using the original screen.

The only difference between the original screen and the replaced screen is that the former was fitted from the factory, and the latter was hand-fitted by the technician. This means that even with the same quality, a wrong fitting from an unprofessional third-party technician can result in a lesser screen quality for your mobile device.

If however, you do not get a genuine product for the replacement, you can experience a degraded screen quality. If you took your phone to just any random phone repair shop to get the screen replaced, there are chances that you may have a non-genuine display which will give you a poor screen quality.

It is for this reason that you are always advised to only take your phone for repair at accredited after-sales centre where you can get quality spare parts for replacement. Apart from the screen, there are other sensitive parts of the phone that you might want to replace, and it is advisable to always go to outlets where you can get genuine products.

When presented with an option of genuine or copy screens, some people might decide to go for the cheaper option which is often the copy screen. When asked, they could say things like “no one would know the difference”, “it is the same display anyway”.

Well, this is not true at all. The genuine screen was designed by the manufacturer to have the same qualities, feel and design as the original, and to fit the phone perfectly. The copy screen or the non-genuine display could just be some other random unbranded screen in the market designed and manufactured independently by third-party companies, which coincidentally happens to be compatible with your device.

Color hue may be offIf you view colorful media on your device with a non-genuine display, you are likely to see that the colors will appear completely off compared to what it originally is. Red color could appear more like orange color to you, and in some other cases, something that is originally blue may appear purple to you.

The screen refresh rate is lower:Your genuine screen display has a refresh rate that is designed to fit with the RAM, processor, and storage capacity. With the copy screen, you will find the screen refresh rate to be a lot slower than before.

The screen/glass scratches easily:You will also experience that the copy-screens appear far coarser and scratch easily when compared to the genuine screen. Even a rough fabric or a rough surface can leave some abrasions on the copy-screen. Before long, even the screen display will be a mess for the user.

The Digitiser, 3D touch, and other screen features will not work as well: If you settle for a non-genuine display or a copy screen, do not expect the 3D touch to be as effective as it would have been with the genuine screen.

The screen display will not be as brightas what you get from the genuine phone screen. Also, you can also find that the edges of the screen would be darker. The contrast and vibrancy, when using such screens usually appear “washed out”.

Weak fingerprint recognition:If your phone is the type that has an on-screen fingerprint sensor, the copy-screen may have problems recognizing your fingerprints. In very terrible cases, it may even mismatch fingerprints, thereby reducing phone security.

It can cause other issues due to mismatch:In some cases, copy-screens do not have the same performance specification as the original screen and can drain your battery faster. Some reviews also show that it damages the phone backlight.

There are several other issues you may have to deal with if your phone screen was replaced with a copy-screen. A careful examination of these points will show you that if you get a copy-screen, you will likely need another screen replacement in no time. It is safer and cost-effective to go for a genuine phone screen instead.

There is a Carlcare app on Infinix, Tecno, and Itel devices, and you can use it to check the cost of the screen, and the cost of the service. You can also book a reservation online to avoid staying in queue.

I need to replace my cracked digitizer/glass on my OnePlus One and it seems changing only the digitizer is kinda hard so next thing is to get the full LCD to replace.

It seems logical that lcd + frame is easier but it seems it requires to move components/motherboard around which for me seems more prone to mistakes and problems then just buying an LCD and putting it into my old frame.

The first thing you need to do when your LCD screen gets broken is to check your phone insurance. You’ll need to know whether it covers your cracked screens and the specific conditions that surround them. Doing this helps you make the most out of the money you paid for your phone insurance.

If the insurance covers the LCD screen, arranging for a repair will be straightforward. In a lot of situations, your main issue will involve going about your day without a phone. You can expect it to return within a few days.

Take note, you might still need to pay for the excess charges. The only time problems start is when you can’t get any replacement when your screen breaks. In that case, you’ll need to do the repairs on your own.

A good option while putting your cracked phone to the repair shop is to use an old phone. If you still have your old phone stashed away somewhere, it might be your best bet for now. Look at your drawers and check whether your old phones are still functional.

If your old phones aren’t there anymore, you still have friends and relatives. Ask them if they have gadgets they’re willing to lend. That way, you’ll have something to use while you decide what method to use to repair your cracked LCD screen.

In 2017 alone, around 5 million smartphone owners in the United States broke their phone screens. That shows how likely it is for you to break yours too. Accidents can happen even when people are careful.

It can get difficult, especially when the screen itself cracks instead of the glass cover. Repairing your screen will need you to take it apart using these steps:

Remove your battery cover as well as the battery and all the cards from the device. Once done, you can now unscrew the back of the device as well as remove the screws around the LCD. The screw types will depend on your phone brand and model, but the most common ones include T4, T6, or #00 Phillips screws.

Using a pry stick, take the housing off your device. Insert the stick between the two pieces of housing. Move it around the housing perimeter so the two pieces get disconnected.

Most devices have a cable that runs from the LCD to the control board. Disconnect the cable by lifting up on the connector. You also need to do the same on the cable that runs from the glass to the control board.

Try using a pry stick to remove the LCD from its own housing. Some devices might require you to remove the glass off first. If so, you need to use a heat gun on the glass for about half a minute to make the adhesive loose enough.

It’s important to remember that some devices like the iPhone combine the glass and the LCD together. That’s why it’s important to look at your replacement LCD and see if it also has the glass with it. If they’re connected, there’s no more need to pry them apart.

Put the replacement LCD in the housing of the cracked one. Once you’re finished, you can now reassemble the device. It’s easy as long as you reverse the steps you took when taking it apart.

There is always the option to send your phone to its manufacturer for the repair. But if you don’t want to pay a lot, you should try a local repair shop. The great thing is that it only takes a short Google search to find the ones near your area.

It’s always important to check the customer reviews before you commit your phone to an expert. Not all repair shops are the same. But if you find a skilled technician, you can rest easy since they can repair your screen fast.

In some scenarios, your phone will sustain irreparable damage alongside its LCD screens. You might think that it’s already worthless and hopeless. But the truth is that there are some websites out there that will pay for your broken device.

A good example is the shopping platform eBay. Some people buy broken phones since they want to salvage other parts to repair their own phone. It won’t net you a lot of money, but you can at least save some money when you need to buy new phones.

You have a lot of options if your phone’s LCD screen gets broken. No matter what you choose for your LCD phone screen repair, keep in mind that these options are always available for you. Look for the best option and commit to it as soon as you can.

Smartphones are the opium of the people. If you need proof, just watch the average person’s reaction when they break “their precious”. Repairing smartphones has become a huge business. The most often broken item on phones is of course the front glass. In most cases, the screen itself doesn’t break. On newer smartphones, even the touchscreen is safe. The front glass is only a protective lens.

The easiest way to repair a broken front glass is to swap the entire LCD assembly. For an iPhone 6 plus, this will run upwards of $120 USD. However, the glass lens alone is just $10. The problem is that the LCD, digitizer and front glass are a laminated package. Removing them without breaking the wafer thin LCD glass requires great care. The hardest part is breaking down the optical glue securing the glass to the LCD. In the past that has been done with heat. More recently, companies from China have been selling liquid-nitrogen-based machines that cool the assembly. Now immersing a phone screen in -196° C liquid nitrogen would probably destroy the LCD. However, these machines use a temperature controller to keep a surface at -140° C. Just enough to cause the glue to become brittle, but not kill the LCD.

[JerryRigEverything] doesn’t have several thousand dollars for a liquid nitrogen machine, but he does have a $5 block of dry ice. Dry ice runs at -78.5°C. Balmy compared to liquid nitrogen, but still plenty cold. After laying the phone screens down on the ice for a few minutes, [Jerry] was able to chip away the glass. It definitely takes more work than the nitrogen method. Still, if you’re not opening your own phone repair shop, we think this is the way to go.

Broken phones are a cheap and easy way to get high-resolution LCD screens for your projects. The problem is driving them.[Twl] has an awesome project on Hackaday.io for driving phone screens using an FPGA. We haven’t seen it done with iPhone 6 yet though. Anyone up for the challenge?
