Anybody had one done in Coventry and recommend the place? Ideally a while you wait.

There's loads but never know if they are shite or not.

Been to the one at the top of Gosford to sort my daughters phone after a stall in cannon park fucked it up. They were OK.

Edit: ah may be the same one!

Sure you know this but would just highly recommend getting the OEM replacement part (even if done by an independent repair place) versus the unofficial ones. Difference in screen quality is massive and the warrantee is different too I think

You can get repair kits now, although they largely seem to result in people ending up worse of than when they started

Defo avoid cannon park, they screwed mine over too. Used the one on Earsldon high street a few times now, haven't put a foot wrong and completed in 15 mins

Any chance this connected to your big night out at the weekend?

This, cheapo repairs are OK initially. The one I had and the ones I saw didn't last particularly well or perform well.

The one I had just looked off and the lag was unreal...

It also felt incredibly weak, I ended up selling the phone on ebay and getting a brand new Samsung (phone of some description)
