    Hi all,

    I just broke the screen on my phone. I am with 3. Will they fix it for me? If so how much will it cost and will they give me a replacement?

    Thanks.

    Only real way of knowing is to give them a call. Depends how it broke, if its in warranty etc. Not really one anybody here could answer for you

    Ring three and tell them you lost your phone... copy everything u need off it... Last I no-though tis a while if you lose ur fone or its stolen its 50e for a new one replacement everything. check it out first but its bound to be cheaper than getting the display fixed! good luck:o

    If your not having any luck with 3 direct call A NOVO on 01 4579787 .....it should cost somewhere betwwen 50 & 75 euro....there very good and do a lot of work for 3.....

    Don't dream of buying a screen on ebay and doing it yourself it will end in tears......

    99 % of the time when a screen gets damaged it is classed as customer damage, you are unlikely to get a free repair.

    However, you could get a paid one, as pointed out above.

    regardless, you need to drop it into a 3 store first to see.

    Mmm the glue....if you don't know what your doing it's worth giving €50 to get it repired that includes the screen and fitting.....I was using a dissasembly guide to...
    I don't know about the Viewty but the prada is difficult, to many fiddly fragile parts and GLUE....honestly I wouldn't touch one again and i'd have a fair crack at a lot of phones...;)
