I think Sony can service the ZX1 and replace the battery.

For what cost?

For what cost?

​I wanted to have the Glass replaced on my A845 Walkman. Went to my local Saturn store where I bought it from. They said something of 200€ for such a repair. Kind of inclusive cost.

Wish all these walkmans had a slot where we could just replace the battery if it died, just like the blackberry and some samsung phones.
But that too would be pointless because then the battery would be outdated as their shapes keep changing into newer devices.
The only logic would be that batteries should have a recommended "standard" size.
But what's the point in me going on when no one wants to save the pjanet

Hey, you're not the only one! Every time someone talks about "burning in" their gear, I die a little. But yeah, I'm afraid here is not the place to start saving the planet.

You right! Meantime let's enjoy the ZX1:clown:

I am a newbie, got a second hand ZX1 on eBay for £195, please with it since turning off every single google service

Dipping my big toe into apple lossless (I am invested in iTunes so it is easier)

Because it's Android OS many of the fixes will be similar on google search.

Hi Folks, Is there a chance to get it repaired in  reasonable price?

Holly hell, did you throw it under a bus ? Considering the damaged done....I don't think the word "cheap" is applicable....the damages look expensive already

Maybe a smartphone repair shop can help. The ZX1 is not too different from your Android phone. They do it for reasonable prices.

Yes, I'd email some smartphone screen repair shops with those photos, see if they can have the glass custom cut.
 
One then needs to consider whether the repair cost warrants fixing the device.

But again, what happened? What should we all not do, that you obviously did? Something related to Jimi Hendrix?

I've done many things I shouldn't have, things I regret that will stick me through life.

But I didn't break the ZX1 screen.

I shot the sheriff, but I did not break the walkman screen......

I got my new replacement battery and soldered it on the pcb without any problems. It was a bit difficult to remove the old battery without applying to much strenght/strain on the battery because the tape of it is very strong, but I got it done without damaging any parts. Walkman works again.
