Hi,
Could do with some advice of fellow members as my desire camera recently has been playing up, unfortuntly now it just black screens when i goto the application.
After trying various roms ands radios im pretty sure its a hardware fault , luckily i have some spare parts including the camera pcb and i was wondering can i just swap any camera pcb. The reason i ask this is becouse my htc desire is amoled and the camera i have spare is from a slcd device.
advice appreciated thanks

Hi,
My problem: Two months ago, the display of my Alpine (HTC 2020i) crashed (not the digitzer). I bought a new display from china for 80$.
This worked for about 2 weeks, then, suddenly the background-light did not work any more. While trying to reopen the device (for checking the connectors) the digitizer broke and the phone is almost unuseable.
My idea would be to separate the digitizer (which should work) from my old display and replace the broken digitizer with the old one.
Will this work? How to separate the two things? Is it possible without breaking it?
Another solution would be: http://cgi.ebay.at/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330134835906
But there I've the same problem: How to change the digitizer?
Any hints are much appreciated!
Thank you in advance!
Best regards,

digitizer and display
it will work only if u will manage to put the digitizer correctly without distrubing the gas pattern on it recently my digitizer stop working so i sreviced it from a repairing center but i m not setisfied at all as i have to re align the screen twice or more in a day. so be careful while changing the digitzer do not press it too hard and check the youtube for the videos for how to change the digitizer they help u.
It is easy to replace the digitizer than the display.In this case one would have to b accurate to pull out the digitizer.There are 98% chance that it will fail, when remove digitizer from a broken display.My experience of fixing 100s of digitizers in various phones..including Palm and Athena
Recently Jasjam's main camera and secondary camera stop responding (main is still showing some pink and green stripes). This happen probably because my phone fell down. Can you recommend DIY instructions for reconnecting the camera circuitry?
Camera repair
The camera modules on the JasJam are fairly self-contained but there is a tiny flexible strip connector that may have come loose..
If you are willing to void the warranty on the device with no going back, then use a Torx driver and case spreader to open the unit.. Check the little orange strip connector is fully pushed in and see how you go... You may get lucky!
Thanks

Hello guys,
I thought i might share with u my pain. The camera on my desire is not working, it shows only black screen whenever i launch it. Downgrading to 2.1 stock didnt help. Didnt work either in the ota 2.2 rooted rom. By matter of exlusion the only thing left is hw issue. Therefore, as i have no warranty, in a desperate attempt to fix it i bought a camera module on ebay. I am not sure that the problem is in the module exactly, but anyway there is no way to isolate it perfectly. So i saw an official htc video for disassembling (looks quite scary ). My question is - does anyone have experience with replacing parts? Any suggestions are highly appreciated.

I have to regretfully annoumce that after replacing the camera i still have the same black screen in both android froyo and gb custom roms. However when i was replacing it, i saw quite a lot of oxidized metal on the pins inside the camera slot. Tried to clean them but definitely did not do a good job. I am the second owner of the phone so i have no idea if it was water damaged.... But its definitely very strange to find it there.. so probably there is lack of good contact. Any idea about a safe way to clean the pins?

ok, just a short update and conclusion:
after some googling I decided I will try to clean the pins up with rubber and a needle. First scratch with the rubber, after that with the needle (to remove the oxidized surface). However as the pins are very very very fragile :-D (and the fact that they were heavily oxidized definitely helped), 6 of them just fall even by the softest touch by rubber/needle (believe me, after the first one fell I became even more careful). So, after that I spent approximately 5 hours replacing the broken pins with wire from an old audiocable that I had around.
To my "surprise", when I turned the phone on the camera still showed the same old black screen. At this point I gave up and declared that I will not have camera on my desire
So, anyone interested in buying a brand new camera module for desire? :-D

I had this problem after I had the screen replaced, which I cracked. The technician damaged the flex cable while he was working on it. Luckily he admitted his error when he checked it and replaced it. So maybe it is the flex cable.

Long story short, my HTC Desire got ran over by a car and the screen is scattered and broken, the phone turns on but all I see is few coloured pixels and soon after I turned the phone on, it gets hot.
So I am just asking whether the phone will be able to get fixed by changing the screen or the internal hardware of the phone is broken and I would have to buy a new one?
your phone is pretty much screwed my friend , sorry about that , if its over heating there is either a battery problem or internal damage (probaly internal damage as the battery allows the phone to power on) my advice would be to email HTC and see if warranty will cover the damage , if not looks like you will need a new phone, sorry bro

Here is tutorial how to tear your desire down:
http://tjworld.net/blog/htc-desire-tear-down
that's not the only problem. It quickly overheat so there is a hardware problem , a really serious one. it may have some capacitors broke or just a short circuit. in the better case you will just have an instable sistem that can just make artefacts on schreen and sometimes bad calculations and draining the battery as an electric ferrari. or it can make burn/short chircuit/damage with high pulses other components as your new amoled that kl_arnet linked.
The pcb is too small for repair micro components, if the waranty will cover it they will just change your phone.
if you wanna try change the schreen before atempting it is a good idea to disasemple it a bit and check for pcb damage or conuctive material around came from .. maybe a broked screw?? (improbably but I don't know what's inside)
or it can just be the screen to ovrheat...
Hi all! I know there're several topics about stuck pixels but my problem is a bit different.
Today I got this phone from a friend and now I've noticed there's a cluster of stuck pixels on the screen (only in black background) - very small dots (like dust) in green, blue and red colors.
Here's a photo of another One V with the same problem, I found it on the net, don't know if it's a common problem.
I've tried different repairing software without any success.
Otherwise screen is working properly and there aren't any functional problems, but these pixels are just irritating.
And I don't know if I continue using it in this condition, stuck pixels won't become more and more...
Anyone faced the same problem? I hope there's another solution except changing the screen.
That is a broken LCD. Needs repair.
Please ask all questions in the Q&A section. Thread moved there.

What kind of repair do you mean? Replace the whole screen or what?
give it to the htc care, they'll replace the display unit
I have no warranty, I bought it used as I said, so if I have to pay for screen replacing, this phone will become more expensive than a new one.
Could it get worse if I continue using it in this condition?
Dude open it ur self if u can or take it to there u can't do.anything externally off its hardware problem
