He did say that he would do it again. I think he tried to do a good job, and did point out that he thought the 3M strips supplied were poor and that he has used glue. That said, the glue is now the issue. So, go back and try again or move on and see if someone else can do a better repair....

Grrrr, asked again for recommendation and went to another local guy. He was very professional, explained how he used screen glue instead of the 3m strips supplied. However, there was a globule visible (but not over a lens). Further inspection, and I can see he had the same issues getting the...

Just to update SBE Limited in Ashford will only service in warranty Xiaomi phones sold with EE contracts..... They definitely do not accept out of warranty walk ins....

That's pretty much what I said when I mailed WondaMobile, in that I had the parts and was looking for somewhere reputable to get the repair done (at my own cost). I'll keep looking!

I don't think WondaMobile are in the UK anyway (Europe somewhere?) so guess its not worth pushing them again for help.

No, SBE Limited did not get back to me (by email). Been a bit hectic here, but when I get a chance I will go to their unit and see if they really do take walk-ins. My understanding is that Xiaomi use this centre solely (for all repairs in the UK), so worth trying here.

That's very interesting. If you don't mind me asking, who did you send it to for the warrantied repair?

They actually replied with the name of the service centre, details below: SBE Limited It states on this web site that they do walk in out of warranty repairs, so have mailed them to see if this is correct.....

Thanks for that. I didn't think of doing the search through maps. My understanding is that the phone needs to be teared down, camera module out - to replace the glass on the module (that's how I have seen it done on YouTube videos). What they did was heat up the back case until they could pluck...

Oh I see, many thanks for that. However, I cannot seem to find any contact or phone for them (I don't have twitter). I do note on the thread that it says UK repairers use the same places as Motorola, so that might be another avenue to look up. The below is what I got from support - not...

I don't think there is one. I know one opened in London a year or so ago, but think it then shut down again. Xiaomi support said there is a repair place right where I live (Kent), but said they wouldn't accept imported / outside warranty repairs. Wonda Mobile who I purchased the phone from gave...

Hi there, I have the transparent backed 10th Anniversary edition Mi 10 Ultra. I recently cracked the covering glass panel on the rear camera and got a replacement. One of my local phone repairers fixed it, but presumably by heating and removing from the back (rather than tearing it down). A...

Sorry to resurrect this. Just noticed today that my rear camera lens glass has cracked (though it is not visible on photos). I found one on eBay from a French seller, but haven't yet found a 'how-to' on how to change it out. I'm quite hand at this sort of thing, though I also have the...
