Hi guy's I recently brought a Zenithink C94 and unfortunately a friend sat on it while it was under a blanket on the lounge and cracked the screen!, the tablet won't function properly now and I'm unsure if any other components are damaged. I sent a message to an eBay seller asking for a quote and surprisingly they said $130-$140 which is almost 3/4 of what I originally paid!, I was just wondering if anyone can advise of the cheapest way I can fix the screen so that I don't have to buy a replacement, thanks and regards Tas.
What's The Cheapest Way To Fix A Cracked Zenithink C94 Screen?

Thanks, there's not a lot of info online about repairing the C94 but AUD$40 is a lot cheaper than $140!
Ok so I figured out how to replace the screen, this might be helpful to other's with a C94. First you have to pry the screen off the front of the tablet while being careful not to damage the LCD, I used a butter Knife and it can be quite tricky as there is a glue that holds the screen to the frame, once this is done though you can use a pair of scissors to cut the plastic digitizer flex cable that attaches the screen to the tablet. After that you can open the back of the tablet using a credit card (starting at the Micro SD card slot) and unplug what's left of the digitizer flex cable. To finish it's just a matter of plugging in the flex cable of you new screen and carefully sticking it to the front of the tablet.
There are replacement screens available on Aliexpress in different colours for around US $30 but for the sake of convenience I ordered the following screen off eBay.

Cheapest method is to repair it yourself.
You'll have to search on Google for directions on how to replace the screen.
Replacements for the LCD touch assembly will cost you roughly $32 USD

An addendum from sellers:
To buy this touch screen,please open your tablet to check the touch screen connector cable and the code number.
Because there is some tablets with different touch screen connector cable for same tablet.
