hi , i have a vibrant with a cracked screen and i purchased a samsung fascinate with a bad ESN off of craigslist but i wanted to know if i can swap the screens or not ?
Not possible. The Fascinate and the Vibrant have different connectors in different places, and different ways that the screen is setup to the phone. :/
thank you for responding. now i dont know what to do with this phone that has a bad esn
Resell it the same way you bought it ofc! Lol.

I dropped my phone and now my camera doesnt work. It shows a fuzzy picture like a TV needs tuning in. Any ideas. I already reflashed it following someones advice and it didnt work. can i buy a replacement camera and where?
Where, when, and from whom did you buy your phone?
I bought my phone from t-mobile uk 3 months ago.
Then flash it back to one of the official ROMs, and send it to t-mobile for repair.

I agree. If there is no visible damage then it should be covered under warranty.
thanks for the advice. there are scratches on the outside from dropping it, however something really wierd has happened. I dropped the phone a second time and it seems to have sorted the camera problem!!! spooky

I replaced my VZW touch pro screen with this one: http://www.chinaontrade.com/htc-touch-pro-t7272-lcd-with-digitizer-p-116.html
It works great. the only difference is it has the spot for the camera on the front lens and the upper corners are round instead of square, but for the price you can't bet it.

I have one that may help you. pm me at [email protected]
I think I just bricked mine, but if I can't fix it I'll let you know, I'm super bummed
OK here is my problem questions will follow.
i purchased my gtab 10.1 in usa.moved to philippines.screen started getting fuzzy then blacking out now its totally out. samsung refuses to repair it cause they don't do international warranty.then i went to samsung office here in philippines asked them about repairing my tablet.i was told they wont order or repair my unit cause its not from here and against there laws.so now im sitting here with a tablet that needs 2 parts.(1) lcd screen(2) lcd screen cable (mine is broken).i have looked on ebay none of the lcd screens come with the cable. gotta love samsung and how they do their customers. i dont even have a way to use ebay now cause i no longer have a bank account in usa or a place to send anything to. so does anyone know where or how i might be able to aquire spare parts for this thing?
Why is it Samsung's fault you broke the screen? And why is it their fault you made the choice to buy a tablet in one country when you lived in another? I don't see that they did anything wrong, tbh.

well for one you dont know all the info. you shouldnt be so quick to judge .im american from usa which i purchased my tab from usa. then after purchasing my tab i ended up moving.and what they do wrong is not support their products internationaly. also i did not break my screen. the lcd cable is what broke. the screen went bad before the cable broke so therefore samsung gave me a faulty unit. so yes i have every reason to complain about samsung and there support and product. so please read and understand before judging others. im asking if anyone knows where i might find parts im not asking for others to look for faults or degrading with remarks.

Posting this rant here isn't going to make samsung fix your tab.
Do you have a family member back in the states you can send your tab to and get them to send it to samsung to get repaired?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
wasnt posted as a rant only trying to explain my situation.i already said what i wanted and needed to samsung . anyway i do have family there but by the time i send this to them and they send it in my warranty will be over. so i figured i would just try to find the parts i need and get it fixed here out of pocket.
I just purchased a used Atrix online. When I put in my sim and tried to type in the carrier unlock code, I wasn't able to enter it because I found that there were dead spots on the screen.
Note this is pretty much right out of the box. The only thing that I can think of that might have messed it up is that I stuck my nail in the crack between the side and the screen and moved it along the length of the phone to get some dirt accumulated there out.
What I'm wondering is if I have royally screwed up my digitizer b/c of what I did and if there is a way to fix it? Or do you think i was sent a dud?
I've got the same. The same things are with other Motorola phones like Defy or Milestone.
I've send my Atrix to service
Thanks for the response. Sorry for not doing a search ahead of time. Looks like this is fairly common.
Try warranty. I bought a used one, had the same problem, called in and they replaced it. I didn't tell them I bought it used, nor did they ask. Sent me out a new phone, not a refurbished one.

Oh really? Warranty through AT&T or Motorola?
I use Motorola, they send out new phones, AT&T send out refurbished phones. I found Motorola easy to deal with. I bought my phones used, they didn't ask, and I didn't offer the info. They replaced 2 phones for me.
Another digitizer thread about the atrix. Nothing new here, move along people.
I ****ed up with a custom rom and the screen is bricked (touchpad won't work at all no matter what rom I install).
I bought the phone during a trip to China, but I live in France right now and I would like to pay for a new motherboard.
On the Samsung France website, it says they don't accept phones bought outside Europe for warranty. I don't have a warranty so, I don't really care. I just want to pay for a new motherboard and get this damn phone fixed.
Is it possible in your opinion ? Thank you very much for your insight!

if it is not a chinese copied GS3, you have the chance of getting a new mother board. but if it is, just buy a genuine GS3.

It definitely isn't a fake GS3, double checked that before buying!
However they should do a paid for repair no problem if not then use another repair centre .

Why do u want to replace yr mobo when yr digitizer(touchscreen) is not working??? The touch screen comes together with the LCD and the frame as well its easy to change makes yr phone brand new again I changed mine. Don't try to just replace the glass although some has succeeded albeit a small percentage. Goodluck

Yeah well, I'll give it to Samsung and get it repaired so, I don't know too much about the details. If it's the screen then perfect!
