        Hi everyone!
        Today's a sad day for me, I've just broke my Volla Phone's screen. I'm now sitting here looking through my options, and that's where I'd like to ask this great community if anyone, who got in to this unfortunate situation before (or even if not, but knows), and knows where/how to get a replacement screen for an affordable price.
        Thanks in advance for any helpfull replies!
        Regards!

          It's about the first VP, not the X right ?

          Maybe you'll have more chances searching for a gigaset GS290 screen, as it's the same hardware, but way more spreaded than the VollaPhone.

          Edit : after searching the net a bit, it seems difficult to find spare screen even for GS290...
          Maybe you'll have more chance with screen "part number" that you should find on it after tearing it down.
          I found a how to tear it down video :

          Wish you luck.

          Edit 2 :
          I broke my canonical Ubuntu Touch MX4 screen some time ago, first i found an unofficial replacement screen (20€), wich had a very poor touch feeling, plus bad light uniformity, so i searched for a used MX4 with original screen, and found one (non UT compatible unfortunately) for about 50€, and teared it down to get its screen for my MX4, i still have it.
          So if you find a cheap used GS290, it can be another solution.
