Changed my Casing after 7 years - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Accessories

At last changed my XDAII casing. I bought my phone 2003. Still using it without any problem. Only the outlook looks horrible and even the screen protector also faded. Just done it yesterday. The original casing (carry XDAii name) cost RM170 with installation. They gave me free screen protector too . So far there is some minor problems, like hanging a while coming.. need to use more to see whether its perfect as usual.

Here the pics of my HDA II old and new look

how does the new cover cost?
do you have taken it from ebay?

[4$] X1 Touch Screen/Digitizer Module

Sony Ericsson X1 Replacement Touch Screen/Digitizer Module
Price: $4.08 free shipping
I just ordered 2 This renders the protection screens useless.
Cheers!
Cool, just have to find out if it is really genuine! You never know, its DX.. If it actually is, bye bye irritating screen protectors.
I will post photos when I receive it. I'm eager to remove the thick plastic cover I use to protect the screen - the touch sensitivity is definitely affected by its thickness.
I doubt this is a genuine part - what's important is to work as such.
DX is slow during christmas and new year season, so you might have to wait a long time for it. Also the hong kong post is slow now
But i am waiting eagerly for the photos!
Hope it will perform well.
i just orderd this one..
http://cnn.cn/shop/sonyericsson-xperia-digitizer-p-6916.html
its working 100% and its oem. only 5$ for shipping. also its really hard taking off the original digitizer/glass. its glued on so make sure you take your time when your doing it because you can break your lcd. also the one i purchased was pre-glued with plastic on it so it was easy to put on.
I doubt there is a difference between these two, considering the price.
OMG, I just buy a piece from eBay for $7 + $3 shipping fee. poor me....mad:

I'm still waiting my order ... dealextreme free shipping, you know
hi.. i am working on a new project with touchscreen..
can any one provide me links where i could buy this module...
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.32335
Here u go. The same link is in the first post.
I've just recived mine, here are some photos. How it works i will be able to tell next week, i think, because I don't think i am able to change it myself.
I'm afraid the cargo camel that brings the goods from hongkong probably has a flat tyre somewhere in the desert... so my digitizer is still on the way.
For anyone that had experience replacing the digitizer, does it involve soldering??
I don't think it needs soldering. I fitted one to my Orbit 2 and that had a similar ribbon like the X1 digitizer. It just has connector that the ribbon pushes into.
This is an excellent screen protector to protect your new digitizer: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.23639
They do not need soldering. Just got done replacing mine with this a few weeks back. Took me about 3 hours. I also purchased this set of tools as well: dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.29544
They are invaluable, if I didn't have them I would have never got past the first couple steps.
I used this tutorial mostly (along with a couple others) to guide my way thru: formymobile.co.uk/xperiadisassembly.php
There are also many other ones if you google X1 disassembly. The only part I F-ed up on was during the removal of the metal trim ring that is glued to the old broken digitizer module. This is very thin. I bent mine in a couple of spots. Use a heat gun to warm it and it will slide right off.
Reassembly went OK. If I remember right something fell out and I couldn't figure out where it went but after looking at multiple guides I figured it out.
Mine works 100%, already ordered another one. I see they also have the actual LCD screen now too at Dealextreme.
Thanks for the info. I think I got some water leak in the digitizer. A little bit of the upper right corner area was not working last week. But the whole touch panel is not working today (already flash stock rom back to make sure it's not software issue). I think I will just buy the LCD+Digitizer in ebay (about $40) and let's see how it goes....
Just want to report back. My touchscreen is back to working with the new LCD+Digitzer. $29 form here: http://www.ezelektronix.com/index.php?target=products&product_id=1872&current_cat_id=276 which is relatively cheap. Takes 2 weeks for me to receive the package.
Hi all
So I finally got my parcel from AX
Can someone tell how to replace it
Thanks in advance
i changed the Digitizer only.
with help of a heatgun and a sharp knife.
Hi guys,
I remember I also bought a digitizer once for a HTC prophet and the quality was noticeably lower than the original. I lost contrast on screen and had other issues. Is this one exactly the same quality as the original touch screen ?

Scratches

I had my HOX in pocket without any covers for just one evening. Now it's full of small scratches... :/ is there anything that I could do to them? They are so small that you can see them only from right angle but still... I didn't expect this from a 600e phone:what:
I experienced the same problem with my 1st HOX. At the time I was at the beach so can only think that a small amount of sand was in my pocket.
Luckily I had some other issues (bad screen flicker and screen flexing) which I reported to the retailer and they replaced the handset. I did make it clear to them about the scratches instead of "playing dumb" by stating that my HTC HD2 had lasted 2 years without a screen protector/cover and had no scratches at all.
Since receiving my replacement HOX I have purchased a cheap slip pouch off eBay which I make sure the phone is always in if I'm out on my travels.
I understand your frustration as my 1st HOX was only a week old when the screen was scratched.
Hope you manage to get something sorted

[Q] Problems with a replaced front glass

Hello,
I recently dropped my phone resulting in a cracked screen. I had replaced the screen myself. The phone still functions just fine with one minor problem. The glass screen isn't 100% touching the digitizer (at least from what I can tell). There is a gap between the digitizer and the replacement glass. I recall that when I was removing the cracked glass, there was a layer of adhesive I had removed because the glass shards were pretty stuck all over it. So does anyone know how to resolve this problem or where to buy that adhesive so there will be a perfect fit?
I've attached some images. One is at rest and you can probably see the dark circle in the middle of the screen.
The second is when I put some pressure on the screen, the *bubble* gets bigger. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Out of luck....
Unfortunately, you are out of luck. Your only option is to purchase the LCD/Digitizer/Glass preassembled. (Around $250)
The design used by Samsung, I believe weakens the glass on the Galaxy S3. Take for example the iPhone 5 which also utilizes Gorilla Glass 2, it is more durable than the S3.
I would think that people would band together and call for a class action law suite against Samsung to replace all screens free of charge for the first incident, or you can sell the phone and buy a quality phone.:highfive:
Buy a new phone.... note2 :thumbup:

The Note2 is more durable than the S3, but the glass is still more prone to breaking than the iPhone 5. Again, Samsung is not a quality manufaure, they are a company trying to push out products in quantity, not quality. Quite a shame! Again, to the OP....choose a quality phone which is designed in America
Lol this is funny cause I have droped my note 2 from nipple height all the time....just breaks open and I put the battery in then cover and bam it works

Hardware quality of oneplus 3

I bought my oneplus 3 about 6 month ago. About 2/3 months ago, i dropped it once from chair height which had full tempered glass and a thin cover (barely protects phone). When it was dropped, there was only a small dent or crack at the bottom left of tempered glass.Mobile worked fine without problem. I can't remember any other drop incidents with my 6 month of uses.
About 2 days ago i got a touch problem at the lower part of the screen. Especially at the left and right bottom corners where it won't register a touch. The phone was in excellent condition without any dents or scratches. There was not water spilling or any kind of water exposed. I claimed for warranty as it was for 1 year and they changed the display without any problem. Here where i live have local re-seller who sell oneplus products as we don't have official oneplus. All went fine but i am concerned about the built quality of this phone as it's already opened after 6 month. I have bought several phones in past and all worked fine even if i drop or used them for several years. This is the first phone i had problem with.
So i want to ask if any of you have trouble with this phone.Anyone had RMA and repaired their phone? i am thinking of selling it already as it's opened now. There is small rubber thing that is loose inside usb-c port. Usb-c cable plugs in well without any issue but i think rubber thing(maybe grip for water resistence?)will come of after sometime of uses.
i havent experienced any issues with phone so far. also dropped it once out of my hand, all good.
Yeah I had my display replaced and my entire back cover because the volume keys were damaged at the same time the screen shattered. I had it sitting on my lap as I exited my car and it fell face first on the concrete without any case or screen protector. I sent it off and had those items replaced and the phone is like brand new again. I haven't had any problems or quality assurance issues after having two main components replaced. If you sent it to the authorized repair center you have nothing to worry about. They did a great job. Good as new!
They even sent me a free case and left the screen protector on the new screen or installed one for me if it didn't come with one which was really awesome

My replaced screen too came with screen protected pre installed. Screen protector was better than original one when i bought the phone as it doesn't cut side of the screen as it did when i bought the new one. Thinking about applying tempered glass for better protection but the applied screen protector is really good as it covers side of the phone.

Cracked screen replacement

Dear XDA users!
I have bought this phone 2 weeks ago, with the Huawei hard case. I was using my phone with the case installed, with the pre-installed screen protector, as my hardened glass did not arrive yet.
Today I dropped my phone for the first time and the screen got cracked on the top right corner. I guess, no warranty for this, I have to replace the screen by myself. I found several replacement on aliexpress around 80 euros, but I am a bit sceptic on the quality..
Any recommendations, experiences?
Thank you!
You have 30 days to register for HiCare VIP membership status via the app (preinstalled) which gives you a 3 month screen warranty. Once activated, contact Huawei via their website/online chat to take advantage of it. I did this myself. Unfortunately I did more damage than just a broken screen so I wasn't covered and used my insurance, but for just replacing a broken screen you should be covered.
On a side note, the supplied hard case is not fit for purpose in my opinion - Particles of dust and dirt get in behind it and mark the rear housing easily. Unless you take it out daily to clean them out you will almost certainly get the same. My phone was replaced under my insurance and I bought a new case (official Huawei flip case with the view window) and I have had no problems like this since.
Good luck!
