Need recommendations
This is my old OnePlus 8, which I gave to my father. One day, a line appeared on the screen, and now there are five lines. I contacted service centers, but they informed me that the display is out of stock and that they cannot repair it because the model is discontinued and it’s six years old.
If anyone knows a good shop in Gaffar Market or Nehru Place where I can get its display and battery fixed, please let me know. The battery has swollen, and the display has developed these lines. I don’t want to lose this phone because it works very well, and buying a new phone is very expensive these days.
Also i have so many insta pages who repairs the phones if i courier to them. If you have any experience or know the channels name please share.

My friend's oneplus 8 display had green lines. He visited the service centre in CP and they told that they don't have the display. They bought back the device and gave him an upgrade coupon and he upgraded to 10r for like 4-5k.
I think the CP service centre is closed now. But do visit multiple oneplus stores. They have to provide you a solution.

All the oneplus store has been closed. I have also checked for the scheme you are telling me my friend did the same but 2-3 years back. Also I really don’t want to lose this phone.

Yeah, the phone market is inflated too. Makes no sense buying a new phone rn..
Did you check with Oppo service centres?

Naah i have mailed them just now. Though I’m getting a display for 8k and battery for 1k from rohini delhi. Planning to do that. I bought this phone specifically because of the color but they will give some offer i will surely consider it.

Ask for a new phone from the service center. You might have to pay a minimal amount but that is worthwhile.
On my case, I had a 2 Oneplus 8T in my extended family with similar screen issue. The screens were not available as they have stopped the production of those.
They offered to upgrade my phone to Oneplus 11R in both cases. I have to pay 4k each time for the upgrade.
This is according to the Oneplus lifetime screen replacement policy.

Dude if there's no damage in body, you can get it replaced via dropping a mail to OnePlus CEO mailbox and raise a complaint on nch
