My LCD Screen is Broken - HELP!

Right.
Bought my blackberry a month ago now, within ten days the screen had broken.
Of course, it's accidental damage and isn't covered by the warranty - my own stupid fault.
So, I asked around and sent it off somewhere locally.
They couldn't replace the screen, said the motherboard wasn't working, although since I can recieve calls, texts, emails, the lot, I highly doubt it. The only problem is, of course, that I could only see 3/4 of the screen.
So, I'm looking around the blackberry website and nothing, anywhere, is of any use to me whatsoever.
I found some page that said they charge $190 for any repair or something
a) I live in England
b) I can get a new one for that!
Will someone please help and either recommend a place where I can get it fixed
OR
Give me some clue as to how I can get it done officially via the website, because it all seems to be a load of jargon to me.
Thank you

There is no "official" repair other than through the carrier.  If you are any good at taking small electronic things apart, it's not that hard to replace the screen.  You can get one here:

    Hi @AJFernando ,
    I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publically post ( serial numbers and case details).

  • Nokia 6350 flip phone broken lcd screen..need help...

    Hi there. After running over my phone with the car My lcd screen no longer shows any text. The phone works fine but I cannot navigate around the various menus. I have tried hooking it up to a pc using the nokia pc suite software but that has not worked out . Can anyone please inform me of a way to retrieve the stored phone numbers? I have tried putting the 3g simm chip into another phone but it did not contain the contact list, address book or recent call list. There is one number in particular that I need to see. Thank you very  very much    albacore

    if pc suite failed you should try getting the screen replaced or check your phone bill or go online to your operators website and see what they can offer

  • My iPod's LCD screen has broken...

    ... for the second time!
    Am I eligible to claim a refund or a replacement from the store I purchased it from (PC World), where I took out insurance on it? The first time it happened, my iPod was sent off to a company that repaired it; since it's happened again, I'd much prefer to receive a refund or a new version. Would this be possible, or do I have to settle for it being sent off for repairs once again?
    Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!

    Why not ask the people at PC World? After all, it's their call.

  • Hp LCD screen broken

    My HP computer (LCD) screen is broken but and nothing else on my computer is broke so if I go buy another screen and get an professional to put it in would it cost less
    This question was solved.

    It really depends on how much the tech replacing it charges you. Replacing it yourself would be the most cost efficient, but it might prove to be somewhat of a difficult task to do on your own. You could also contact HP at 1-800-474-6836 and ask them how much it would cost to replace and repair.

  • Broken iPhone 5 LCD screen.

    I recently dropped my iphone 5 face down on the ground. I think that the LCD screen is broken becasue there is black and white vertical lines going down the screen, and then it would fade away. The next minute it is fully functional. Am I right, and if I am, how much is it going to cost to replace?

    for an out of warranty iphone 5 at the apple store could be at least $200 and some change..

  • IBook G4  LCD screen broken

    The LCD screen of my iBook G4 was smashed in an accident. The laptop works fine but the screen is broken. What is the best option for replacing the screen? Is there any option in India?

    Since accidental damages are not covered under basic AppleCare or the
    optional extended service there; you will have to find a reseller who can
    do the work and not adversely affect the remaining hardware. So, to say
    they should be qualified in repair as any Apple repair would require.
    There is an AppleAsia site and perhaps the link I found there can be of
    help in narrowing a search for a qualified reseller / repair center not too
    far from your location. India is covered under the AppleAsia region, so
    that may be a matter of cost and time; depending on distances and the
    cost of parts. Some authorized repair centers may have a second parts
    computer, (perhaps with different damage?) and if so, you may get a
    break -bad pun- on the cost of a display and lid, plus hinge, etc; when
    compared to full retail. But I'd expect a first-rate repair if you go to an
    authorized Apple reseller with an adjacent repair center; or one they use.
    In some localities, the repair still may be routed to Apple; if they have
    no one qualified to do them and if parts availability is limited there.
    AppleAsia: http://www.asia.apple.com/buy/reseller/ (general finder page)
    Apple/India Portable sales/support/service:

    There may be other qualified technicians, but to restore an iBookG4
    may be a judgement call; and the total costs not under warranty may
    be prohibitive in some locations. I wish you well in your quest...
    Good luck!

  • My LCD screen burned out. I have it connected to a tv now, but can't get the menu bar or the function bars to show up. Please help!

    My LCD Screen burned out, but the computer still works. I currently have it connected to an HDTV via, Mini DVI to VGA, VGA to VGA on the tv. Problem is, I can't get the function bar (maybe not the right term) or the bar at the bottom with all my programs on it. I get my screen saver and have managed to drag (by sheer luck since I can't see anything on my iMac screen) some of my pics I had on my desktop over, but nothing else. Please help!

    Hello
    you should have on your key board "mirroring key" , or F7 on old keyboard
    for now your tv is an extended screen for your imac not a miror , so you can not see menue barre on top of screen

  • [HELP] Changing LCD screens on a S55 B5280 Laptop for a higher resolution one

    Hi!
    I was wondering if there's any LCD screen that i can buy to replace the one that comes with the Toshiba  S55 B5280, that can provide a higher resolution. It would be the first time that i've changed a LCD screen for one capable of more resolution.
    Can someone help me on the subject? I don't need any "how-to" to do it, i just need to know which models that provide a higher resolution than 1366x768 are fully compatible with this particular laptop.
    Thanks in advance.

    ArchLinux is designed to run whether in VirtualBox or on a real machine. 
    If you have a TV connector plugged in it will chop some regular lines at the bottom to make up for the difference in TV resolution.
    There are a couple of packages related to nvidia hardware, nouveau is one of them.  Just do a pacman -Ss nvidia for possibilities of things you might need to install.  Your nvidia hardware is a little newer, so probably nvidia is the package you'll need instead of nouveau. 
    Are you using X?  When you install the proper xf86-video-* driver it shouldn't have any problems with X.  If modesetting is turned off, then some resolutions may not be made available (especially in Gnome), so it is best to keep it turned on if at all possible (kernel default).

  • My ipod is broken. The home button doesn't work, so I took it to a tech shop and they also said that the LCD cable was broken and my screen is cracked. Will apple fix my ipod or just replace it?

    I would like to know if apple will replace it. If not, then I will take somewhere cheaper but it has some scratches so I would like to get a new one.

    The home button doesn't work, the LCD cable is broken and the screen is cracked!  Wow.  That's the worst case of abuse that I've seen.  I think that Apple will laugh at you.

    There's no way to "restore" your phone, but, you can login to iCloud.com, using your computer, locate your phone, then erase it.

  • HT4113 my i5 screen is broken, i cant get through my passcode to back up my pictures to my computer, can someone help?

    my i5 screen is broken, i cant get through my passcode to back up my pictures to my computer, can someone help?

    Is it that you cant see the screen or you cant use the touchpanel??
    If you have synced with itunes since you set that passcode you should be able to do an itunes backup which will save the photos even without entering the passcode.

  • Help! Problems with LCD Screen.

    My iMac's specifications are below.
    Recently, I've noticed that there is this large patch of the screen which is covered with white bubble-like drops. I've tried cleaning the display, but it looks like they are under the screen. You cannot see them when the display is displaying white or other light colours. When displaying black or darker colours (even when the display or computer is off) one can see the drops.
    I'm not sure if it's because of something I did or what, but I want to know if I should take it in for repair, or if there is something I can do (It's still under warranty).
    Here are things I suspect:
    My iMac is usually under constant sunlight. It's not directly facing my window, but it does get hit my light. But I haven't heard of sunlight ever damaging an LCD screen.
    The drops seems to be in some areas, but not all. Which is why i doubt it's something I have done.
    When you get close to the screen, you cannot see the drops anymore. Also, when you are at certain angles, you cannot see the drops. This leads be to believe that a certain amount of light is need to see the drops, otherwise they are too faint.
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Hello Kuro
    Take it to the nearest Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service Center, they can remove the glass panel over the display and clean or replace it if needed.
