My XDA 2s broke (couldnt make a connecting call)
so i rang o2 got a replacement sent out but it was the xda 2i. Which im happily using.
My xda 2s got sent to o2, but some hoe got sent BACK to me, and o2 have never asked for it since.
now, ive just bought another XDA2s from ebay that has a cracked screen but rest of the fone works.
SO does any body know if the 2 screens will be direct replacements?
ive removed the working screen from my XDA 2s and im waiting for the broken xda2s to arrive.
Also does any body know if there is a guide on how to change the screen that i could follow?
thanks
Why not look in the Wiki? But if you can't be bothered, there's a 1 in 3 chance it's the same and a 1 in 2 chance it will be interchangable.
p.s If you've already removed the screen why do you need a guide?...

i was a bit brutal removing the screen, as i didnt need the rest of the fone.
just a bit of re-assurince to be honest.

Hi,
This is my first post here so I hope it's in the correct place.
I've got a Universal with a damaged screen (I trod on it ). Does any one know if it's possible to get a replacement (in the UK if possible)? If so, could you please tell me where from. Also, has anyone out there actually changed a screen on a Universal.? It looks a bit difficult to get the screen apart: I'm not sure where to start. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi, I had the same problem a few weeks ago. I dropped my Qtek 9000 on the floor and the screen broke. I bought a new LCD screen on ebay and replaced the screen my self. It was not very difficult and you only have to unscrew a total of 8 screws to do the job. I used the service manual to get some guidance in how to remove the screen.
Try these guys
I've not used them but remembered seeing them being talked about elsewhere in the forum.

Black and white from a display is 1 of 2 places being faulty.
LCD itself ( as has small decoder ic's in the LCD module ) Or the main PCB ( mainboard ) as it has the graphics chipset on it. if all screens are black and white including boot up logo/splash, bootloder, and main windows mobile then one of those 2 are most likely at fault
how do i know which one is faulty?
thnx for the reply..bt how do I know which one is faulty.
can it be fix without send it to repair ?(DIY)
Hi
My screen is broken beyond repair.
I have seen on here that others have also broken their screens, and suggested places to get them fixed / order new screens. How have you got on? Where dd you get your screen from, for how much, and did it all work ok??
Also is the xda Orbit a G1 screen or a toppoly (read it on eBay).
Any help much appreciated.

hey guys, the history goes like this... a guy is selling a desire at a really low price, is brand new but when you turn it on it jumps to the fastboot screen right away
sooo my question is... could it be a software issue? or maybe the volume keys are messed up?
here is a picuture of it ---> http://s357.photobucket.com/albums/...ire/?action=view¤t=2010-09-11201019.jpg
i havent tested the phone myself, just seen pictures and talked to the owner....
I have a g1 and i have adb and fastboot working on my laptop so, could i root it from there flash a rom and maybe it will fix that? what do you guys think?? any ideas??
This is purely guesswork, but it could be water damaged.
Warranty? If not then buy yourself a can if campressed air and take the phine apart.. not that hard I did it!

the phone is brand new and it seemw like this guy has a bunch of desires, he says he received this one in a recent batch but this is the only one with a problem... so i dont think it could be water damage, maybe a really hard fall? or shake? cause it look perfect no scratches or scuffs or dents or nothing... weird uh?
I really want to buy it but i dont want to waste my money...
any other ideas? my main question is that if it can be fixed with root and a new rom... maybe?

Hi All
For the last couple of months my desire has had an intermittent problem with the touch screen. All of a sudden it decides you're trying to pull down the "notifications" screen when you're just touching the touch screen, sometimes it also decides you're trying to hold and drag when you're just tapping the screen, sometimes it simply stops responding. These problems are usually solved by tapping the top button and putting the phone on standby then tapping it again and waking it up - although sometimes it then won't let you drag down the screen unlock until you repeat the on/off standby procedure a couple of times. The problem varies on connecting my phone to my computer.
Given that in between these instances the touch screen works as normal I'm guessing it shouldn't be a hardware issue, but the intervals between these problems appear to be getting shorter (either that or I'm just getting more annoyed by it recently). I've had a quick search of the forums and haven't immediately found anyone having this precise problem. Is it likely a question of trying factory reset and if that fails sending it for repair?
Thanks in advance
Similar issues. Don't think this is hardware.

Gotta know more about the phone first. Is there a custom rom? Have you tried flashing to stock?

I'm having same problem, mine started couple weeks after I installed cm7.2, I tried another rom, no luck
Its definitely not software. I've tried froyo, gb stock with s-on and no root. I've been on ics roms cm7 roms but this problem occurs on all. I'm giving mine for service today.

Well since the OP didn't respond here's my suggestions. If you think it's software then just flash to a stock rom. You should find a number of them lying around the forums, and instructions on how to flash. This will mean your phone is unrooted and will need to be rooted, as well as taking care of installing a recovery and etc. This should correct anything wrong with the software.
Otherwise you busted the digitizer, which is actually very cheap to buy on Ebay. You will have to take the phone apart which can be time consuming.

Hello,
Any luck with the Tocuh Input, is your phone back from service? I am also facing the same issue....
I had this problem on my G2 a while back. It was a hardware problem so I ordered a new touchscreen and replaced it myself.

Hello Whiskey_Tango / Others,
Can you please let me know the details of the touchscreen component that you ordered for your G2? My HTC desire Z touch screen has also gone bad (unresponsive at multiple points) and I feel that changing the hardwre should do the trick.
If possible, let me know the touchscreen specs (model / part number) as well as any online website from where I can order it !
Many Thanks !!
From eBay search for HTC g2 digitizer
Be careful to get the one for the vision not for the magic

Thanks for the quick response. Before coming here, I had a mobile service shop take a look at my handset and he had mentioned that for HTC desire z, the "touch screen" comes with the "display" attached to it. Did he meant the digitizer only or (digitzer + LCD screen) or he was simply trying to rip me off ?
I am very sure that there is nothing wrong with the display on my handset, its only the touch functionality that is not working properly.
Which one of the following do I need to search on EBay?
gultek.eu/htc-spare-parts/digitizer-touchpad/desire-z.html
or gultek.eu/genuine-parts/lcd-modules/htc/desire-z-hd3.html
or both?
Thanks again in advance !!
You need just the digitizer, if you're doing it yourself it takes about an hour if you've never done it before, don't buy the lcd if you don't see a flaw in it.
Some people sell the whole front chasis with lcd, digitizer, front bezel all connected for ease of replacement. May be easier but you will only shave of 30min tops and spend 3x as much

yeah this happens to my G2 a lot. I got my phone fixed a while back (2-3 months ago) becuase the colors on my screen were screwed up and the ear piece was broken. i took it in and he replaced a couple of cables. it worked fine but now sometimes the screen is just having a straight up seizure. it flips through pages so fast and it goes from page 1-2 and back and forth and then the virtual keyboard presses multiple keys and just its crazy. i feel like the guy that fixed my phone didnt plug in a cable all the way. but yeah thats my problem. i dropped my phone the other day and ever since my phone hasn't gone into a seizure lol
Hi, did you solve your problem? I have the same with my desire Z. It click alone in several place on my screen.
And I ask me if the problem don't come from the lcd digitizer control instead of the touch screen digitizer

Yes replacing the digitizer did fix my problem. And a year later the replaced digitizer started giving problems. So I ordered 2 extra digitizers off ebay. Both of them turned out to be duds. Surprisingly the second digitizer(which I replaced a year ago) fixed itself.
I think Im having the same problem,
bottom part of screen (including the home, menu, back, search buttons) aren't functioning half the time,
is there any service manual, or link to information as to what I need to tear apart on my DZ?
should this be enough? EBAYLINK
what do I need to replace the digitizer?
