Hi guys!!!
It's probably a stupid question,but I really like the phone so I thought I would give it a shot...
The phone fell from my pocket while I was on my motorbike,and broke in two pieces,the num pad and the slide.Nothing seems actually broken,but there is a wide cable that connects the two,and is ripped off from the num pad side...
Does anyone know if a fix is possible?Or should I do the obvious and simply throw it away...?
R.I.P. nice phone...

Have a look on e-bay for a D600 ribbon cable.
I can't off hand remember if it is a seperate cable or attached to the LCD's

The cable might have just pulled out of the connector. Anyway you can get the cable on its own. Here is one on e-bay in the UK.

I would buy also a new OEM housing (Samsung Original) If the phone is in two bits it has more than likely snapped the plastic rails it slides on.
Looking @ around £25-30 for repair. If you look for D500 housing instructions or videos you can use these to put your phone back together.

OK man,thanks for the reply!!!!
I think I'll try and fix it myself,some guys at a greek forum said it might get up to 200 E with the authorized service here...
That E-bay item though is for D600,is that the same?Cause I found a D500 cable,for about $3...
And about the instructions videos,I guess there should be a link or something...
Anyway thanks again fro the help.
Be well!!
