Hi All,

Is it possible to buy a replacement screen for my 7600 as it is badly scratched. If so where can i get one from and would i be able to fit this myself (technically limited!) or would i need to send the phone off?

many thanks as always.

regards huggins

    The phone barely costs 45 quid - your better off EBaying it as "barely used" and getting yourself a brand new one!

    Getting it repaired will cost more than the phone, but if you REALLY wanted to fix it, I've opened the whole phone up before and the little plastic screen is indeed just that, just a piece of plastic so if your handy with the dremel you can prolly cut yourself a new one and super glue it back onto the frame.

    is it the screen or the cover?
    you can get copy covers on most markets for £5ish
    a new screen would be about £35 inc del from ebay
