Replacing nokia 6300 lcd screen

p5x

I've managed to crack my screen, had a look on ebay and it costs about £20 for a replacement screen. Does anyone know if there's a guide showing how to replace it?

Thanks gaming guy

There's a crack in the screen, it's not the outer screen but the inner display if you get what I mean. Do you think this will be covered in the warranty as the phone's only 2 months old? Didn't bother getting insurance insurance on it but then again they would have charged £25 excess to fix it as well.

Unless the lcd screen cracked itself, without you dropping the handset etc... then it won't be covered by the warranty.
Be careful when buying a new screen off ebay, I bought the cheapest one for my N73 for £17 and the quality was poor, rtnd it and bought one for £3 more which was just as good as the original!
(Asked in a phone shop for the screen without fitting and was qouted £75!!!)

How can you tell if a screen is good quality on ebay? I was thinking of getting item#160135373504 as it comes with a screwdriver to fix it. Is the screen that guy's selling any good?
