Hello XDA ..
My G2 LCD stopped working for no reason .. It started flickering and losing colors two days ago .. and yesterday it went completely black .. I did not drop the phone or damage it anyhow ..
I opened it up and checked all connections and it looked fine .. the LED and digitizer screen work fine as well as the capacitive buttons at the bottom so I figured it is not a connection problem ..
I had Cyanegon on it for like 5 months and never had an issue .. I recently installed Virtious Sense ROM and I have been switching between the two the past week ..
My question is ,, do you think it is a software problem for example the lcd driver got messed ..?? or is it just the lcd was broken somehow
I am intending to buy a new lcd and replace the one I have now but I thought I should make sure that the one I currently have is actually broken before I replace it ..
Thank you,,
Edu
PS: if you can think of an easy way to check the functionality of the LCD let me know ..
Its rather hard for a software (even if it is firmware) to cause problems to an LCD. If you can se the backlight turning on but the screen not showing anything, i suggest you start trying out some unbricking methods.
Now, if the screen doesnt turn on AT ALL, then its possibly a hardware fault. The only way to be sure is to have an extra lcd available to connect to it. You could also try and give your lcd to someone with a Desire Z to try out your lcd on his phone and see what happens.
The "easiest" way though is to get a new one.
is the ribbon cable connecting the screen to keyboard damaged?

the backlight does not turn on at all .. so I guess you are right it should be a hardware issue

my htc wildfire had an accident resulting in a broken touchscreen (front glass) i bought a new one and i replaced it because i didn't want to spend too much money
now the touchscreen its working cept the top part (where the notification bar is) its unresponsive to touch so i contacted the shop and they said i should do a reflash (which didn't help im currently using cyanogenmod last stable version) or i should find a touchscreen calibration tool to recalibrate my touchscreen which after many hours of searching i was unable to find
now does someone know about such tool or is this a calibration problem or the new touchscreen its also broken ?
any suggestion its appreciated

Capacitive Screens do not require calibration..
I had the same problem so I restored it to stock and as it was in warranty period got the touch screen replaced..
Now it is working properly
hi all
used this forum for solutions a few times but unfortunately couldnt find one this time so needed to make a thread!
ive just replaced the digitizer on my sisters wildfire s after she cracked it. the touchscreen seemingly works fine, except for the buttons at the bottom (ie home, menu, back and search).
ive had it in bits numerous times, with and without tape on the screen. tried the goldcard routine to apparently calibrate the screen, but nothing seems to be working. the rest of the touch screen seems perfect and accurate... just no buttons at the bottom.
anybody have any ideas?
thanks

ive got the same kind of issue , the letter " i " and " . " didnt work so i replaced the digitizer and ive even installed a new ROM but still have the same issue , its really begining to piss me off now someone please help us
Hi all !!!
I have an ONE X for a month and no matter what i did the touch is way off , the bottom screen is completely unresponsive .
Is there anyway to fix it ???
Hardware fault, I believe. I've never heard of a capacitive panel that needed calibration before, anyway...
if my friends have an original rom
is there anyway to extract it so i can install it on my device ?
After I replaced the the whole screen assembly, about 2 cm of the screens right side is almost unresponsive to touch.
It always works, if i touch a spot on the screen that works 100% and then immediately after that touch a spot on the rigtht side.
Sometimes it also register a touch if I try like 10 times.
Could this be software? The phone is not rooted og flashed. I have tried to restore to factory defaults. I'm thinking maybe I could get lucky with a different ROM/Kernel?
I'm also wondering if it is a loose connection to the digitizer? But the I think its wierd that it works when I first "Activate" the screen by touching it on another spot first.
I hope someone can come up with some ideas to try before I open it up again, as it is quite hard to get appart, and I'm worried to brake the new screen.

have the same problem, and i dont think its a software problem you can test the touch screen by using htc help app go to : hardware misbehaving / hardware diagnostics / line drawing test you can view it by drawing lines on screen
have you found a solution to the above problem?
