I got mine for $169.99. Shortly after, they raised it to $199.99. It is due to the limited availibility of the part I would guess. Took forever for me to get one in.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
Also be advised- Depending where you get it from, you may have less work to do. The one I got already had the USB connection/ charger board and the proximity sensor and front facing camera installed. I only had to add the main board and antenna assembly. Pretty cool, as I now have extras of those things. Never hurts to have spares!

Thanks for the high quality images. I replaced my broken screen last night...everything works great. The new screen I ordered from dealrepairs came unattached to the plastic front adding a step. I had to pry off the old broken glass and lcd piece by piece with a razor blade since it's glued in. Have to be careful at the bottom where the home button sensors are attached. The new screen had three pieces of plastic over the adhesive back including a small red piece that had to be removed before setting back into the plastic base.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Haxel:
As he said, that plastic base has to be peeled off the screen. Most screens come that way without the plastic bezel. So expect some fun guys.

Hairdryer helps loosen the double sided glue. It looks easy (and is) with a whole screen, when cracked though... OMG /wrist.

Be careful with a razor to peel the tape off the glass for the button sensors. The glass and the razor can damage the filament and/or the LED solder joint.

What's up with that? Can we actually remove all this stuff? Or do the boards come like on the OP's picture?

My glass broke, but digitizer and lcd are fine. I just received the glass only from ebay yesterday. blkkouki, how hard do you think it would be to separate the glass from lcd and digitizer and glue the new glass to old lcd/digitizer? I know I will need a heat gun. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Gardenpapaya:
Clocke , How was your experience getting the glass off ? Just got mine and didnt realize the plastic bezel was not included
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hooutoo:
This I gotta see, I replaced the lcd/digi assembly at least 5 times and I'll be shocked to hear someone say they got the assembly apart without destroying it. The assembly is all one unit heavily glue together and remember it's not the bezel surrounding the screen.. If your bezel is in good shape (even if it isn't) all you need is the Lcd/Digi assembly not the the entire front fascia as posted by the OP. Getting it from (Ebay) Shenzen is the least expensive and has a 3 week wait or Gounlock.com has good price and 3 day wait. If someone has managed to get the assembly apart without damaging I;d love to see PICS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Fusionr300zx:
redic, gotta buy the digitizer just to replace the chrome bezel.

my bezel looks like **** and that's all i want to replace.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kallen3103:
I like your way better

I finally got my Skyrocket just the way I wanted it and then stepped on it. It had slipped off the seat of the car. The glass was perfect but the digitizer was shot.I unfortunately watched a youtube that went through replacing a screen and digitizer. The screen and digitizer are for all practical purposes one piece. I can't imagine separating them successfully- my opinion. I got one of the screens from China. Took a week and they had taken a Sharpie and blacked out Samsung and ATT on the covering plastic. On the you tube he said get the screen real hot and then press anywhere cause it's already broken. I immediately turned off the YouTube and turned on the hairdryer. His next sentence, after press anywhere it's already broken was, "except here". Well I was pressing and I heard a snap and knew that wasn't good. It was the cable to the home button panel. No big deal 8.95 and a couple more days. I ordered some double sided tape too. I had the new screen resting in the chassis. When the new part came I heated up the screen to get what little adhesive left hot. I looked at the hole for the speaker and thought, "That looks like a good place to have a grip." Broke half of the new screen's left top part off. Was just about to throw it away and thought well I ought to hook it up anyway. Worked, and has worked like a charm. The circuitry is up there and it didn't break the digitizer. I got a holder that covers the broken place and if you don't have it in your hand to look at it you can't tell. The glass is cracked and it's going to stay that way till it won't work anymore. I can take one apart real quick now.

I'm thinking of replacing the outer screen/lens on mine. Its got a few light scratches and for the price I've found it would be worth it to me.

Anyone want to do the same?

Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gtcway:
Hi all, I've been looking for days trying to find the answer to this. I have a Skyrocket with the chrome chipped from the bezel on three of the four corners. I'm going to get a case that will hide it, but it still bugs me if it can be fixed cheap. Is the chrome bezel part of the back cover or is it part of the digitizer/touchscreen? Maybe it's a separate part that I haven't seen yet?

If it's a part of the back cover, I will change it.

Thanks

Great step by step

Thanks for this post. It'll really help me change the screen on mine when I finally buy it...My glass broke right thru the center but the whole part still works and hasn't lost any sensitivity when using the phone. The pics are awesome too. Good job :good:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rkkaranrk:
I had ordered a glass for my friends skyrocket and waiting for it to delivery.... Had heard that changing the glass is very difficult as it is pasted with the screen and removing it takes lot of effort, Will update if I get the glass before u.

If anyone here on the forum had done it plz enlighten us.

That was years ago when the phone was much newer. Sorry about your bad experience with your Skyrocket. Haven't had any problems out of mine that weren't self inflicted by me. In fact it's been one of the best phones I've ever owned! So, maybe user error on your end...idk.

Missing 75% of calls because it took so long to respond to the swipe to answer isn't user error. Taking 3-5 seconds to launch an app isn't user error. Getting stuck in a reboot loop every few weeks isn't user error. Just shutting off anytime I tried to take a picture with the flash isn't user error.

Not only was it the worst phone I ever bought it was the worst purchase of any kind I have ever made.

[Thunderbolt General] famester:
Just got a replacement phone screen didn't sit right and random reboots already so they said they didn't want to put me in another thunderbolt. So ill miss out on the excitement of the ril finally being released. When I get my rezound I have a few accessories so ill post those Tuesday or Wednesday. Just got some of it too
[Thunderbolt General] _highway_:
so do you still have your upgrade coming soon? (depending on when you bought your tb)
[Thunderbolt General] famester:
Haven't checked not too interested in renewing my contract
[Thunderbolt General] engagedtosmile:
I too am having reboot issues with my Thunderbolt. Along with the loose USB port, I might just have to get a replacement. Did you take it into a store to have them look at it or did they troubleshoot it over the phone?
[Thunderbolt General] famester:
Just call no one in the store knows their @$$ from a hole in the ground. If you've had multiple problems and are done with the phone ask to speak to a escalation Rep. If not just tell them make sure you're on the latest update before talking to them or they'll tell you that fixes it. Also they might try a hard or soft reset if you've tried that let them know. This was my fifth bolt so they didn't even ask just offered the bionic, charge, some LG phone, and the rezound so I took the obvious choice.
[Thunderbolt General] henryt:
Just got off the phone with Verizon; they're sending me a Rezound as a replacement as well. Called technical support because my phone was rebooting randomly, and the agent said that since this was my fourth Thunderbolt, they're going to switch it out with a different model. Choice was between the Rezound and the LG Spectrum.
[Thunderbolt General] famester:
Congrats mine comes today so ill be on ics within twelve hours
[Thunderbolt General] kingofyo1:
Just did my call in as well.. Fortunately they were sympathetic after seeing note after note with replacement devices.. I'm on my 5th tbolt, and after seeing that they're starting to replace easily with other devices I went for it. The nice lady on the other end at tech support didn't even blink when I asked for the rezound as a replacement. She asked if I'd like an extended battery with that? Said yes please :P
[Thunderbolt General] teddyastuffed:
Do u guys know if u had to buy the tbolt from Verizon direct? Cuz I got mine from best buy, can I still call Verizon for a replacement? Random reboots r killing me...
[Thunderbolt General] kujayhawks77:
Yes as long as you buy it from an authorized dealer which Best Buy is and are still under the 1 year warranty. (also of note, they generally don't replace phones with a different model unless you have had several replacements already)
[Thunderbolt General] famester:
Items for sale are up in accesories and for sale
[Thunderbolt General] kujayhawks77:
Out of curiosity when they sent you the Rezound did you get the Beats headphones/battery/back cover?

When they did a phone replacement last summer for my wife's fascinate to a DINC2 they only sent the phone with no charger or battery or battery back plate since it was a warranty phone exchange.
[Thunderbolt General] hondan8:
vzw has replaced my wife's tbolt 3 times now. definitely considering this route.
[Thunderbolt General] famester:
No headphones asked for a bettety and gave me an extra battery cover
[Thunderbolt General] VoodooGTR:
I generally just live with the random reboots since it is not that much of a horrible issue. But do you think they would replace my phone with a Rezound even I did not report previous issues. Like the text problem and the rebooting problem that is the current issue with the TBolt? Just kinda want the Rezound since it came out. Very pretty phoen :)
[Thunderbolt General] xTFGx:
I am also wondering this. I have had the T-Bolt since last may and have dealt with the rebooting and text problems because I didn't want to go through the process of calling and getting a replacement. After reading this thread I really want to try and call for a rezound upgrade, but I have never called previously or had a previous replacement so IDK if it will work. I will post again if I do try it.
[Thunderbolt General] famester:
No I tried on my third and fourth and they said no so its for people whohavehad multiple complaints from my experience but it wouldn't hurt to try I guess. It also has to do with who you get when you call. From my calls be nice to them if you get upset or angry they don't want to help you out.
[Thunderbolt General] xTFGx:
Then I guess I'll just keep calling back until I get the right person lol. Thanks for the advice, I'll be sure to be extra nice!
[Thunderbolt General] Dannar:
Every now and then my phone randomly shuts off...and it's not a low batt situation.

[Thunderbolt General] sorullo_xgrx:
Great device, just got one for my wife, and she loves it. The screen looks great from any angle, a little lighter than the Tbolt of course too. But I love my Tbolt, but I still get to play with the Rezound sometimes...
[Thunderbolt General] xs11e:
Yes, it would. I had a few random reboots on the stock ROM and on Liquid's ROMs (which is a shame because I like 'em a lot) and NO reboots on Eternity or my current Thunderstick Bare Back.

Bloke above is correct. Not sure if you'll see the quad-core One X Stateside, but AT&T will see the dual-S4-packing One XL sometime this quarter.

All the caveats mentioned above (no expandable memory, 16GB etc.) still apply.

Or emulating the wrong aspects of Apple. :confused: Apple is applauded for their polish and refine which their loyal base then defend their short comings such as lack of sd card. ;)

anyhooo... spec wise LG optimus 4x seems a better match, but others point to the problems that g2x had, as a reason to distrust LG. Their rep was not helped with the videos I saw at MWC. Little chance (AUS or US) of us getting that beautiful waterproof fujistu quad core ICS phone. But as specs go Huawei really is a looker, with stock ICS.

You can buy the quad core One X but only if you're planning to use only HSPA+ I believe since there's an article about it passing the FCC to use HSPA+ bands in the US.

2. What about phones? Im coming from the Evo and its still considered a top contender with the new phones that are out there now. I dont want an iphone, Id like to stay android. Any phones out there that are pretty good? How is the nexus? Anything better? Anything worth waiting for?

I am stuck using BAMF Cubed 1.02 GB ROM as my daily driver because of ICS binding the Ringer & Notification Volume control into one slider. Don't get me wrong, it is a great ROM, but I want to use ICS.

I need to have the notification volume off and the Ringer on at night for work. I'm using Timeriffic to control the volume profiles so in the morning the notification volume automatically turns back on to the correct volume. ICS breaks this ability.

I noticed something interesting when messing with the extended settings on CleanRom w/ Zues Mods. You can select individual notification toggles...not quite sure if they all work correctly though.

You can access the individual sounds by tapping on the icon.

Edit: It looks like once you change certain volumes it effects them all just as it was stated above. My bad it doesn't work.

I was not successful with any of the 3rd party apps. Since this issue is at the system level I don't think the Devs will be able to do anything about it until the source code is released.

For a workaround I downloaded a Silent.ogg ringtone and set up a second sound profile named Bedtime. It sucks to have to manually switch between the profiles at night and morning, but I least I can now leave GB behind.

Mike
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Yeah, none of the apps I tried worked as flawlessly as Timeriffic on GB. My biggest hurdle was email - I don't get any texts during the night (and if I did, they would probably be important), so if I could get K-9 mail to be quiet all would be well.

After poking around in the app late yesterday, I ran across the option for Quiet Time. It works!! I think I'm good to go for now.
