Hi all, Just woke up this morning and my Coby 8042 was staring at me with a cracked screen! Touch is working though, and half of the screen is working a bite. So I need to fix this. If someone knows a 8042 with a working screen or maybe a equivalent screen that can work please share. I'm currently digging on eBay. If this isn't gonna be fixed maybe will look for an other Tablet.

Ebay is about the only place I know, you most likely can buy another used tablet for less money. I checked ebay today a lot of 9742 are being sold, it's a gamble buying a tablet for parts and get it working, I have had good luck doing this, doesn't mean you will, but it's worth a shot.
I already did, well gave it away to my grandson, He loves it uses it everyday. He also has a 9742 but uses it less and less, So while he doesnt use 9742 I am working on it. Just made a livesuite image for 9742 with CM10, So if the tablet became unbootable I could use that image if need be. Anyway if screen isn't broken then bid on the 8042.
