Hi,
I managed to break the LCD (the touch screen itself is not cracked) on my two-month-old XV6800 . I took it back to the Verizon store and they were really helpful but they determined it's not under warranty and that's understandable. So, I want to buy a replacement LCD for it. Has anyone purchased a replacement LCD before for their HTC device, and if so, from where? I Googled for about an hour this morning and couldn't find one (I have to admit that I don't know if other models' screens are compatible though). I found one on eBay but the seller is in Hong Kong and I'd really rather pay a few bucks more and get it from someplace in the US that can ship it overnight to me. I think I can handle the actual repair myself.
Thanks
If you can not find it, you can come to our online store to purchase it.
Thanks
I did a google Search and came up with these:

Similar problem
I have the same problem (Dog bit the screen). Thanks for the links. Has anyone found directions on how to replace the LCD?
To the other person doing this... let me know how it went. Also, is the touchscreen and LCD sold as one unit ? I understand they are separate items and both may be damaged.
Thanks for any help !!!!
I need a replacement ribbon cable which connects the screen to the keyboard (the one that slides back when you open and close the kboard). Anyone knows where to find it?

hi guy's, i have been up tring to change the cover on my mini and it seems i have broken the end off the ribbon cable (dam it) is there anything i can do to repair it or is a new screen needed?? if so does anyone know where to get a cheap screen???
thanks in advance
i damaged my ribbon connector that's connected to the main board (the one with the clip lock) on my mini too
It sucks hey? the clip lock's all i need thats the thing that broke, the cable seems in good shape. any ideas??
no ideas. i asked our service center here but they dont sell spare parts. they said i have to buy the whole board. Now im looking for any MINI that's not working and maybe i can get it at a bargain price.
I think i might just by an atom unless you know of any other wicked phones comming out soon??
Hi all,
I have a Universal on which the screen stopped working. I actually think the screen itself is fine, but that the connecting cable(s?) is damaged.
Using MyMobiler I can "see" the Universal's display on my laptop, so I know the rest of it is fine.
As a result, I'm looking for a dead Universal (with a working screen!) that's now unwanted so I can repair mine. Alternatively, if anybody can reccommend a CHEAP but GOOD repair service in the UK.
Many thanks in advance!
Hi, just PM'ed you, if you r interested
Having partially opened the thing, I can see the coaxial cable is damaged and this is the only part I need replacing.
If anybody has a totally dead Universal, even with a smashed screen I'd be very interested!
Carphone warehouse....

Why not take it to the Carphone warehouse I took mine there when the screen was damaged and it only cost me £35 to repair... Alternatively buy a new coaxial cable off ebay should be able to find loads from Hong Kong etc.
Hello,
My bluenagel's old broad connector cables have been broken. (at least one of they)
anyone know where could I buy?
I have been searching in ebay but I haven´t found anything
thanks a lot!
What are you looking for? Sync cables? A cradle?
None of these.
The iner cables/bus/ribbons (I don't know their correct name) that conect the screen and buttons with the "mother board"
take a loook:

Ah, I see. Sorry, I suppose I can't really help you further with that. Your best bet might be to determine which cables exactly are broken and then exchange the whole defective units, i.e. button board, screen and/or digitizer.
well do u get a white screen or a glitchy lcd with garbage on it, i had the same problem...showed the phone to a relative mines getting repaired its supposedly the ribbons so m waiting till my phone comes back....if it works out for me u can let me know ill try and get hold of those cables and send em to u....the shopkeepers tell me to not spend on the cables cuz its pretty useless! they break easily again!
... if you don't do something stupid like I did. If you pay attention, research, watch videos, etc, you won't do what I did. I found a charging port on amazon that came with the tools needed to get the job done for about $15. I opened the case and all went well up to the point that I needed to disconnect the old piece. I followed all directions up to disconnecting the wide connection. There are 2. One right next to the port and the other at the opposite end of the ribbon cable. Not paying a bit of attention to what I was doing, instead of popping up the little latch that holds the cable down, I pried up the ribbon cable. Thus breaking off the connector that is soldered to the board. Now, I have a tablet that works until the battery dies.
Moral to the story, pay attention. Replacing the port is easy. Just pay attention.
Now, does anyone know if the connector can be replaced? Can I get a new board? Or am I out $400+?!
Follow-up question. I am looking around and it looks like I can get a replacement motherboard. Before I spend the money on a new motherboard (and hopefully not break this one), how will it function? I am rooted. Will I be starting from scratch with a stock tablet? No OS at all? Just fine and still rooted?
Thanks.

Did you ever find a solution? I just did the same thing. I was trying to be careful - but that top piece just broke right off of the connector to the motherboard. Am I screwed?!

What piece broke off? You might be in luck cause i have 3 tab s's taken apart right now and can probably send you the part you need. Can you pm a picture of the part you broke? The charging port is connected to a cable and i just had it apart. What did you break on it?

Wow - that would be awesome. Truth be told, I'm doubting this is something I'll be able to do myself, but I'm about to have a dead/useless tablet, and nothing to lose. So I'm willing to try!
Thanks!
Here are the broken pieces. In case anyone is thinking about doing this - they're very fragile!
Again, not sure about my ability to take the piece off of the motherboard, and/or attach a replacement.
Anyone ever try it before? I'm hoping I wouldn't have to take the motherboard out and/or solder anything!

Unfortunately the motherboard i have is broke and it doesnt start up. I thought it was the charging port so i cant help you out. You can buy a new board for 99 dollars though or just buy a used broke one off ebay and switch the board out. It is very easy to do and there are videos on you tube. People have used ones for cheap with broke lcds or screen burn. Buy one of those and switch out the top board cause that is all you need. I have all the other parts but my main board has something wrong with it. If you do that just make sure you get the same model number cause i just bought a verizon one and the motherboard wont work with my att one. I have 2 att ones that i was able to swap out.

Awesome - thanks!
hey guys, the "6-pin connector" for my 607T had became detached and broken, does anyone have SPARE or know where i can buy some? ive only found on other onlinestores like ebay but says will be shipped in like mid december.
Glue/epoxy the connector back together or order one from ebay... mid-December isn't that far away. How badly broken is it?
