Thankyou so much!
Very nice, but even Amazon is not marketing the replacement screens.

True, but if you happen to find another dysfunctional Fire ( with an intact screen) you can always harvest the display from that one and put it on your functioning unit. Long shot. But that's why this repair guide is still helpful even though parts aren't readily available.
Fingers crossed Amazon offers more parts in the future! :)
I ordered one from Amazon yesterday. Supposed to be 2 day shipping. Certainly not the $12 cheepy from China, but hopefully it will actually be shipped and delivered to my house. Any item Ive ever ordered that ended up being shipped directly from China has never found its way to my house and ends up costing about a months delay in the fixing of whatever device i have taken on the responsibility of to try & repair for someone.
Worth the $29 i’m paying at Amazon
