    Default Busted smart phone screen

    Is it possible to buy and replace the screen on an Adroid phone? If so, is this difficult?

    Bought the wife a new Droid Bionic Thursday and she dropped it Saturday. Hadn't gotten her purty little case in yet.

    I've never done. A guy at the station did it to his droid. He replaced the screen. Said it was ok but don't loose the small parts. Cheaper then using insurance. Want to say it was 40 bucks or so for the parts.

    I'm not sure where to tell you to find a new screen though.

    If it was such a smart phone then it would have figured out a way to protect itself from it's screen busting!

    Looks fairly straight forward, but also looks like alot of delicate parts in that thing.

    Take it to a pc repair place.

    They do this stuff all of the time and I promise it's cheaper than a replacement.

    I used Mr. PC right downtown the other day and was very pleased.

    I dropped of a gaming console at noon and they called me at 2pm and said they were done. They replaced a power supply for less than I could've bought one myself and did so in no time.

    Bull St. and Laurel, I think.
