Help! My Apache (LCD) cracked

j_sand · #1 (**permalink**) 06-05-2008, 03:51 PM

Is there anyone on PPCgeeks that can fix LCDs on the Apache? Mine got stuck under a chair and the LCD is cracked from the top left to the bottom. However the phone is still functional. Just cant see the screen, and that makes it useless for the most part. Any help would be appreciated. I had to go back to my Katana.! ugh

Yeah, it was cheaper to get a replacement than to replace the screen...

You can buy a parts phone off ebay for little or almost nothing or buy a new LCD if thats what you want to do.

PM me. I got a parts-only Sprint 6700 that has a good screen.

Must give back at least a small fraction of what PPCGeeks has given to me.

Did I mention free?

PM sent.
Parts left:
Keyboard assy w/ all buttons intact - fair condition (few dings/scratches.)
Big black Antenna nubbin - good condition
Internal speaker (bigger one) - good condition
Bottom shell case - fair condition (few dings/scratches.)

PM me, though I'm leaving town for a few days so you may not get a response until later next week.
