This ***** charges a premium but sends stuff from China to a Forwarding address in Florida and it takes forever to get your stuff. I'd take my business elsewhere.
hey dude, just a single question: how do u know it is really oem? I mean, have the same quality...

So, I dropped my N9 and result was a cracked black screen. A couple of questions:

1. As the screen does not work any more, I am not able to enter my lock code, which seems to mean that I am not able to mount the device to a computer, and I'd like to get some photos out of the N9. Any ideas how?
2. Other broken screens in this thread seem to work somehow even if broken. Does this mean that in my phone there is also something else broken? (Does not sound like a good plan to pay 180 eur for a new screen only to find that there is something else broken...)
3. If someone has extra screens or willingness to buy the remainings of my phone, I am open to suggestions (location: Finland)

Do you mean that after you tried to mount it as described here it wouldn't get mounted?

Every marking was identical to the screen I replaced and the quality was the same.

You can surely get more money for parts this way plus help a few people in here with spare parts too.

I paid almost 450 euro for my N9. if I was to buy and replace a screen for another 150 EUR (33% of the original price) this is what I'd do.

How much is your time worth? Seems like it would have to be not much to make all this work and bother of selling parts individually worthwhile.

Where is the best place to buy a new touchscreen+LCD in the UK ATM?

Any reputable dealers?

But I see now display assemblies for as little as $120 on ebay. Can anyone vouch for the quality of the displays from HK? I worry they are cheap LCDs, not original Amoled. Or worse, made for one of the Chinese N9 look-alikes, and completely incompatible with the real N9. The people doing the listings on ebay would not know.

This one is definitely fake: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/160831321501
See the 3 buttons on the bottom of the screen? [shudder]

I bought one and it arrived today. Looks like an original one and wirks perfect.

B U T ( !!!!!!) on the backside of the display the original metal frame and the clips are missing. No chance to fix it on the phone. I dont see a way to get the parts from my broken original display. Seems that they are fixed with glue.
ow how to handle that. Its so nice to have a uncracked screen in the phone...

See droosie's posts above. He used hot air and a scalple-type knife to remove the frame from the old screen.

Hi, I dropped my N9 and the screen cracked. It was just the gorilla glass i think and the digitizer works completely fine. I can use the phone, see everything and do everything. just the screen is cracked. is it possible to repair just the cracked glass?

I had seen an advertisement for those car glass repair kits.

would this be possible to fix my problem?

Thank you for your time. -Noni
