Title: Screen Replacement
Post by: S.Prime on November 10, 2013, 03:06:58 AM

We have seen the occasional post where someone has dropped their Nexus 7 and cracked the screen and that the Asus repair cost is simply too expensive. But eBay is now showing the complete screen assembly for the Nexus 7 2012 for approximately $66 US and $94 US for the 2013. So if you are not timid when it comes to electronics and you have about 2 hours to spare this could be your fix. The following link to Google+ describes a successful replacement.

I still have a broken N7. Still not economically viable to replace just yet.

2 hours? That seems like a lot of work when you have the parts. 66 dollars vs 99 fixed I am paying a pro.
