Has anyone replaced their HTC One V lcd or digitizer?
I cracked the digitizer and I am trying to avoid paying for an overpriced repair by doing it myself. Before I order the digitizer I wanted to know if anyone has done this because there is a lack of documentation from a google search, a lot on the One X and S but no V.

hei,
the other day I dropped my desire and now I have a fractured glass on top of the screen. The display itself is fine, only the glass on top is fractured.
Anyone have any idea on how to replace the glass on the desire??
replace it your self, pay htc to do it if you have insurance.
well I dont have any insurance on the phone so I will go ahead and do it myself.
I looked up at ebay but couldn't find a replacement part for the glass.
Do you know of any site where they sell the replacement.
Thanks.
Try HTC.com or HTC support or HTC products. and see if they help you on whatbyou are looking for. I dont think is eazy as you think. Or search on Google that's how I do it when I have a problem with my phone. Hope something of what I say helps if not sorry man.
HTC DESIRE #1
You should buy a Desire digitizer on ebay. I got mine from Hong Kong and it works perfectly. Replacing the screen isn't that hard.
Here is the guide that I followed. Really it is easy, it just takes time

Can you tell us how many fingers can your new digitizer register at the same time? Because the digitizer of the original desire can only register two fingers at the same time while iphone can register 5, so I want to see if these chinese replacements are actually better. To test this, search in market for "multitouch" and there are some free apps to do it. Thanks!
Are there any independent repair shops that can replace the HTC Evo glass? Anyone had any experience? Pricing?
Thanks!
Don't mess with it.
Take it to sprint. Pay them the $35 to overnight a new phone to you.
you mean the digitizer or both lcd and digitizer, btw full front panel replacement w/digitizer, lcd and housing for $75 or less on ebay, just did that today on a evo i bought off craigslist w/ cracked lcd & digitizer took 10 minutes max to do.

Unfortunately my beloved's screen sustained a sever damage
I would like to try and fix it by myself and need to know what do I have to replace
The device works fine
Screen glass is splintered but responds to touch quiet alright
A small yellow spot In the center
Does the yellow spot mean that the board under the glass is damaged as well ... or I can save it by replacing glass only ?
At eBay I find two options
Full LCD Display + Touch Screen Digitizer Assembly - 80 $
New Touch Screen Digitizer Glass Assembly - 30 $
Do you Know whether the parts over at Ebay are quality ... or should I not mess with it and pay full price by sending my beloved to a HTC lab ?
Grieving badly :crying: and waiting for some help
It doesn't seem to be possible to separate the glass from the LCD, without damaging LCD. No idea whether the screens you're looking at on eBay are the same as original or just compatible.
The only thing I can offer is that I replaced my screen on the desire HD and for the time effort and quality I wish I'd sent it off

Don't mess with it, my experience was with my hd2 and it was a nightmare and would of been cheaper letting htc do it, also I have read horror stories about cheap screens being sold for the one x

OK guys
I think I'll leave it for HTC even though the price will probably be a killer
Thanx
Dropped my phone on asphalt today and got a big hairline crack across the screen . (Attached pics)
It really hurts cause i always baby this phone and just the rush to get to work and in my car, completely missed my pocket.
The screen is still responsive to touch and seems to be working normal thank god the lcd screen wasnt damaged and the digitizer didn't shatter.
Got a few questions t
1) just wanted to clarify that the digitizer lies ontop the LCD screen?
2) and that is all that needs replacing?(from damage seen in the pics)
3) also mine is branded just HTC(no carrier, so it's international GSM version?)
4) would it matter if i bought a replacement digitizer meant for the at&t version or not?
5) should be getting a one x that had some water damage and is no longer working. would the digitizer from this phone be a viable option for me to use as a replacement or should i just order the part online.( I really want it replaced fast and if i have to order the replacement it will take about a week to 2 weeks to arrive in my country
so apparently i can't attach any urls until i make 10 posts or i'd show u guys the part i wanted to order but its basically just a screen digitizer from ebay with tools needed for about $17.86.(is that cheap, good or expensive price considering the item + tools)
can you guys please search for it on ebay?the title of the post/part is Touch Screen Digitizer Glass Lens Replacement For HTC One X S720 + Free Tools
the link above is the item i'm looking to order for replacement. is it the right part i'm looking at?and would that be all i need or is there anything else i should add?also quality wise would it be top pick or are there any better options available?
Attached some pics also.Advice would be greatly appreciated.
You are unlikely to be able to separate the digitizer and lcd without damaging the LCD.
A water damaged phone may have a water damaged screen.
Search one of the other broken screen threads for more information.
I've replaced several screens on captivate.easiest way is get replacement(LCD+digetizer) from ebay,Google procedure.watch or read as many times as needed to feel confident to take apart phone.the hardest part is seperating LCD from phone(they use adhesive to secure LCD to phone).I used razor to carefully cut adhesive.
Most components are plug&play.just follow guide completely,u should be fine.
My LCD was $85 on ebay.good luck.

My friend,this is the same horror that i faced and yet not recovered completely from its impact.... The problem is with your touchscreen a.k.a digitizer which probably would have been known to you(as you mentioned you have googled a lot).My best advice is to change it in HTC service center itself,bcause i bought it in market and fixed it(though i was very careful in following each and every step) after few days of ruf-tuf usage the problem showed up again...So go for HTC Service they are the best doctors..
Before you buy new digitizer
and only if your warrenty has expired, try to open the phone (there is enough youtube videos), remove the digitizer and look at the black soft plstic ribbon that goes around the front plastic panel (the one that protects the lcd).
If it is little loose and not hard tight to the frame you can use a piece of plastic to attach it to the frame and check the touch responses again (that worked for me...)
else, buy a new digitizer (about 4-5 USD in eBay).

I've done a HTC wildfire digitizer swap before its fairly straight forward I found a guy on eBay from Poland I believe that sold pre-Cut stickers for attaching the digitizer to the LCD. I would have a look if you can and get one of them if you intend to move forward with the replacement, just make sure to remove as much of the excess glue from the old sticker first
