So a couple of months a go I came here for help replacing my screen and that all went swimmingly, thanks for that by the way
Before the screen broke though, i when the screen popped up I had red/blue tints everywhere and stuff, somebody told me it was a damaged cable in the middle. This carried on after my screen replacement and was manageable because it went after fiddling for a bit. But now it always does it and it isn't just red and blue tints, now I'm getting orange, purples and greens everywhere when the screens flipped up and red and blue when it isn't. So I was wondering if there was anywhere I could get a replacement cable or main insides or something in the uk?

this place is awesome and should have what u need as long as u dont mind s+h
Thanks dude but I wasn't looking for a replacement screen, I meant the insides of the actual phone or the cable that connects the two halves of the phone together

Hi i have just replaced the lcd on my DZ, but have now turned it on and there are vertical lines all along it.
Could i have done something wrong? not connected something? or damaged the flex cable?
Or is it just a faulty lcd?
can anyone help?
Pics?

i've taken it apart again, as it got worse since with the whole screen going variations on green and purple. But heres a pic of kinda how it looked. Although more lines, and evenly spaced

Your cable might of been damaged when you toke your phone apart. When I toke apart my moto cliq to change the screen I never has an issue. Make sure you properly put the cable on. Another thing could be the lcd...

the flex cable? yea i had been thinking that in the back of my mind. i was really careful when taking it apart though. Is there any way of testing the flex?

It sounds like they are sending you the parts for another phone.
You are right about being cautious with your wife's phone.
Can you call the shop you bought both of the screens from and verify the type of phone that they are sending the part for?
You may have 2 perfectly good screens for a Inc S.
OR, but highly uncommon that your video card has crashed in a way that it could be corrupting every screen that you throw at it.
I don't think there is any way that the screen can be damaged by the phone in a way that is causing BOTH screens to fail.
But just to be safe, I would wait for advice from someone with more experience on the matter..
That or see what the shop says.
When you heated up the unit could you have melted any solder connections around the components?
That should be lead free solder with a higher melting point than regular solder.
Good luck..
Thanks for your response and when I heated it up the logic board was already out of the phone so no heat was applied to it but I will call the shop I didn't think about it being and incredible s screen I wonder if that would make a difference although their website says the screen os for the s and 2 but again thinks for your response

So I have literally no idea how this happened. I'm guessing I stepped on my phone while I was cleaning my room but the LCD had black and white stripes going up and down when I turned the phone on, and after a reboot my screen is completely black with a diagonal white stripe on one corner. However, the digitizer works fine and the backlight works. I'm able to answer calls and use the capacitive buttons. I found a replacement LCD through repairsuniverse.com for $35, and I'm wondering if this is my best options. Any G2/DZ users been through the same experience? Many thanks in advance.
I've done it before. It's not that bad. Make sure you do it slowly in a well lit area with clean hands. You've seen the video right? Make sure you have the phone separator tool or thick guitar picks

I am considering doing the same. Any updates on how the replacement attempt went?
I've searched threads here and most of them talk about pink spots on the camera. I just bought a new T-Mo GS3, i rooted it, and then installed a stock rooted rom from here.
I don't know if it was like this out of the box, but i went on dropbox and the app is mostly white, so on the top of the screen there is like a pink spot. It's mostly visible when the phones on an app or something thats white but even when its not, its still there, just less visible. Is this a defective unit or something? :/
it's a defective unit. If you're in the exchange period take it back. This is my second white one. The first had a pink blob in the lower right hand corner you could only see on a white web page

The first thing I did with my S3 was checking the screen. My first blue one has a pink tilted screen so I exchanged it. the screen is the most important so yeah. you should exchange it asap
Damn. I bought it on ebay, no refunds. Can i just replace the screen?
I'd contact Samsung. Physical (hardware) defects are still under warranty. Should be for at least a year

Hi
I have a little problem, I droped my HOX and now it has a little scratch on bottom, you cant even see it, but I know it is there. So did someone ever replaced whole back cover? And another reason for that is that I kinda want white HOX and i have black Can you give me the link where to buy it and is it hard to replace it?

Yep did mine from a shop on eBay - just search.
Took 10 mins to change. It was surprisingly easy. I went from grey to white. Hardest part is remembering to move the speaker circuit.
