Source for Titan/XV6800 LCD Replacement?

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?

[Q] Help!! broken lcd flex cable connector on motherboard!

so the off white tab that holds the pins in place broke off....and also some of the pins broke off. So im wondering if this is completely impossible to fix? is there anyway to rig the lcd screen to turn on still or am i screwed? btw it is the smaller flex cable version. i dont have a sprint upgrade for a good year and a half so im not trying to wait that long and my htc hero is getting quite annoying to use compared to my modded evo which was gloriously fast.

Hey did you ever get this fixed?? The same thing just happened to me...

A new digitizer for the Evo only costs $20-$30. Just buy one and replace it. Problem solved.

Hey,
It is possible to fix you just need a new lcd screen or digitizer here are some ebay links for them I am not sure what one you need..
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-HTC-EVO...ultDomain_0&hash=item230a0125a2#ht_2253wt_752
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-Evo-4G-...ultDomain_0&hash=item519bf4265e#ht_2188wt_944
But just replace it dont try to rig it or anything it will cause more damage then good.
I hope I helped If I did please hit the thanks button,
Stevo

I think he means the connector on his logic board broke which is hard to repair afaik

[Q] Replaced LCD twice, only backlight comes on... What to do, now!?

Hey Boys n Girls!
I made a mistake and bought off eBay a phone with a "not working LCD":
" This is a used HTC Desire Z smartphone. The item was dropped on water and immediately pulled out. The LCD screen doesn't work anymore as some cable inside is cracked. Everything works fine, touchscreen, menu and the device boots fine, you can hear the sound etc but no image. Anyone can fix this if you have an LCD spare for HTC Desire Z and the phone can be used and works fine, just the LCD needs replacing. Comes with original box, manuals and battery but no charger or data cable. I want to sell this fast so Happy Bidding!"
, also ordered already from two different seller LCD replacement screens neither of them worked. Backlight works on both but nothing else. Im quite puzzled what to do next...
Anyone got any idea?
Please let me know! THanks in advance!

Sounds like some cable is not working, rather than the two screens you've purchased! There is a guide somewhere here for all of that stuff. Best of luck mate!

If you could kindly link that guide, it would be very much appreciated! Thanks!

try searching for ribbon cable. You should prob just take it to a cell phone store. Phone geeks in San Marcos did my repair for 70. I was texting gf while playing golf in pouring rain.

The flex ribbon cables are not that expensive. If you were comfortable replacing the screen, I would say you have the ability to replace the flex ribbon cable without a problem.

Im going to order it tonight and give an update as soon as I got the flex ribbon cable.... I assembled and disassembled so many times already soon will be able to do it blindfolded

Also while you have it apart clean the logic board with denatured or pure alcohol and a soft bristled brush. Let it dry completely! That way it won't corrode further from the water damage!

I will do that since it will probably take like 2 weeks to ship the flex ribbon from China Thanks Man!

No prob cheap insurance plus it could even since a current or future problem I do this work for people can you tell lol. Denatured is best otherwise I think 97 is as pure as you'll find. Most stores carry the latter.

Ps be gentle no need to go medieval on it

Replacing the Flex Ribbon Cable solved my problems.... Cheers Everyone!

CHARGING port help. Need a good seller

Try cnn.cn but i think you will find only the whole micro usb port and not the flex cable alone

I have tried 12 replacement parts from ebay for an i717 and they ALL have no service after putting them in. but the original one that doesn't charge still gets service fine...

edit: I can recommend http://www.parts4repair.com/. Worked like a charm
did you try the following:

well a i717 component in a n7000? version mismatch no?

Yes, the AT&T version and the International version have different radios, and the micro USB port is connected to them. They are NOT interchangeable.
i717 ≠ GT-N7000

Any tips anyone?
Hi, I just want to revive this thread rather than start a new one.
I am gonna swap my my usb charging port for a one I bought on eBay. Does anyone have any tips I should know about that you can tell me?
I'm going by this youtube video. this is all I got and of course I'm kinda scared.:crying:
Thanks. Will check back later.

Easy to do, but will cause other issues
Hi. I too have just brought a note with this problem.
The replacement is easy, remove battery cover, battery sim etc. Take out the screws, use something thin to pries the edge off. Its the lip below the screen level though. After that, 3 more screws for the bottom section, then take out the one screw in the thin motherboard piece. Slide out the old flex, slide in the new one, re assemble.
The biggest problem is that youll most likely lose 80 % of your reception from it. When the phone is open, try to see if there is any corrosion behind your USB port, if there is clean it and try it. I did that as im sending my ebay one back for a replacement, Now my old one seems to be working, but for how long, i dont know.

I bought a battery charger and extra battery. I bought the brand Hyperion but I've heard there are better brands. Anyway, I don't charge my phone any more... I just swap batteries now. One is always on the charger and one in the phone. It works fantastically and further, the phone always has a charge. When I want to swap files I remove the card and put it in the PC. Works really good.

If you are on about the daughter board I got one of Amazon for£10 took less than 10 mins to fit and have had no problems. Came In OEM packaging
Any questions feel free to PM

It's 10 black screws on the back & 5 white to take there cover of over the daughter board. No need to undo a mother board screw whats this about losing 80%signal?
That's rubbish, Sir! Mine is on5 bars H+ and has been sincei did it. As there is a new mix. Too the sound is better, IMO
Sent from BOX13.

Bought mine off ebay worked 100%, signal is still the same, nothing happens to signal. But you have to buy the whole board. Mine didnt come with a wee microphone bit so i took off my old one, stuck the sticky bit within the square part and put the rubber part in the cover and screwed it on. Everything working fine.

My usb port is busted so am replacing that board too. However, I've bought two off ebay and both have had problems. First one fixed the charging issue but didn't give me any reception (well one bar now and then) and the second gave me signal but had a busted micro usb port. EBay can be so fustrating sometimes!!

I have just fitted my 3rd replacement board and loose most of my signal after fitting it. My original board gives me full signal but intermittent charging. :crying:
Do all N7000 use the same board or does country intended for make a difference? My note is an International phone made for Hong Kong.

To be honest I still haven't got a perfect replacement yet but one that is at least functional (get werid noises during phone calls - not on my end but on whoever is calling me).
You do have to make sure you get the correct board though. If you look on the original board it should have some writing in gold near the top. Mine said Rev 1.0 so I got replacements which were rev 1.0 too. Apparently there are other revisions (although I didn't come across any others).

mine is a version 1.00 see attached my original is on the top one of the replacements below

I did my replacement yesterday.
Got the part from this seller:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190821533955?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
And then followed this link on how to do it, took me 2 attempts as the 1st time I hadn't pushed one of the ribbon cables down and had no service. After pushing it in and putting it all back together it works again

Ordered one from parts4repair, we'll see how that one works. The one I have now, works, but the signal level sucks.

I Can't Touch the Part of Screen Though Replace Digitizer.

When I disassembled my xperia play for the first time,
the screen digitizer was damaged by my mistake.
I can't sure that, but I guess it can be.
At that time,
the bottom of screen (about 1/3?) didn't work.
So I bought the screen digitizer,
and replace it today.
But the problem hasn't been solved all the way.
If separate into 6 parts the screen from top.
(For example the top part is 1st part.
And beneath 1st part is 2nd part.)
5th parts doesn't work.
But the bottom 6th part works well.
I don't want to buy else new screen digitizer.
Please let me know how to use my xperia play with any problems.
Please help me.
Thanks about reading my thread.

Are you sure it's digitizer problem? Maybe it's flex
I had similiar problem, but in my case whole touchscreen didn't work and it happened randomly on reboot
It turns out that when i was repairing my usb port i somehow didn't place flex cable properly and it was bended over that metal part of slider.
Once i reopen it (only the part with motherboard on it) and place flex cable properly, touchscreen started to work normaly
How old is your Play? When you opened it, does flex cable looks damaged?

Where did you buy your digitizer? If it was from eBay, you could ask for a replacement from the seller you bought it from.
Like Bakisha, it could be the flex cable. If you know the digitizer is working, it usually is the flex cable.

In fact, the flex cable of my xperia play looks a bit little.
The black color had been painted on cable wear a little.
So do you recommend me to replace flex cable?

Well, you could open your Play and see if flex cable properly placed. Open slider and put that white plastic inside metal frame. Put back dpad part of phone back, but keep an eye on that white plastic, it have two holes in motherboard to go into, then screw those two screws on motherboard (so it will make flex cable plug in motherboard - look if jack is now properly inserted
Close it and try it.
If you again have problems with touchscreen, then you have two options. Replace flex or replace digitizer. It's hard to say wich is faulty...
