OMG!!! Look at this thread - screen replacement ;) - HTC One X

Hi, I'm wanting to replace my HOXs screen.
There are yellow spots on the screen, does this mean I need to replace the lcd panel as well or if I just replace the glass/digitizer will this fix the yellow spots?
Also, I managed to fix a galaxy ace screen (glass/digitizer) by separating the digitizer from the lcd panel and the lcd panel is fine. I know it has been said it's not really possible to separate the two with the HOX but if I have managed to do it for the ace, do you think it's possible for the HOX??
Any thoughts would be appreciated

You don't really need to replace the screen if you have orange spots ,just put the screen on full brightness over night and your problems will be solved , if you want to replace the screen ,replace the whole thing as you said I have seen only one video out of 60 that the guy was successful in ceperating digitiser from LCD ,good luck

They will disapear after some time. I had the spots too.

Thanks for the replies.
Sorry I forgot to mention that the screen is cracked too. But my main concern was separating the lcd from the digitizer. I did do it for the ace and it was pretty easy buy if you think I would be better off to replace the panel and digitizer, then I'll do that.

The things is, the ace and the hox are very different devices. Just because you've managed to seperate digitizer and screen on the ace doesn't mean you could do that on the hox too. Just compare the space between LCD and digitizer of both devices and you'll see what I mean.

You wont manage to seperate the screen from the digitizer trust me, i tryed it and the glue is too strong + the lcd is too fragile.

[Q] Cracked screen on my brother's AMOLED Desire

G'day all
My brother's HTC Desire (AMOLED version) kind of had a misadventure and now the touch panel is cracked. Does the whole screen assembly (digitiser and AMOLED panel) have to be replaced (like the iPhone 4), or can just the digitiser be replaced?
How easy is it to replace it?
got any pics, so we can see how damaged it is

you basically have to take apart the ENTIRE phone to get to the front. It ain't worth it.
Yeah you do have to take most of the phone apart to get to the digitizer but it's really not that hard. I did it on mine about 6 months ago.
There is a really good video on youtube that shows you ever step of the way and if you buy a digitizer already stuck to the front case part (rather than just the glass) then it's even easier (that's what I did).
Here's the link - have a look and see if you would be comfortable doing it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXZqIjtFoAU
Took me about half an hour all up but that's because i was taking my time to try and be careful. If you do end up doing it I can help you with who suplied my part (around AU$70) and some tips to watch out for..
Tas..
ps. that's of course if the AMOLED screen is still ok ? just a cracked digitizer/glass ?
I cracked the front of mine 2 days after I got it
Ordered a replacement digitizer of ebay and changed it out in about 20 mins using thye already mentioned youtube video.
Separating the digitizer glass from the case is really easy just blast it with a hair drier and it comes apart with no problems.
if only the digitizer is cracked then that's all you need to replace but if the crack is in the amoled as well then obviously it's both but it is not more work since you have to pull the amoled to get to the digitizer anyway

Screen replacement warning

Just a heads up to anyone about to replace the htc one x digitizer lens, it is not user seperatable from the lcd screen, It will break at the weekest point which is the lcd itself,
damage will occur as shown in the video below (person in video fails to admit he damaged the screen during the recording)
I would go through insurance for ease or if you really want to replace yourself get the lcd and digitizer already put together on ebay as even lifting the lcd off the chassis will crack the fragile screen no matter how careful you are.
Haha he ripped the screen right off lol.

The maker of this video posted it here to a while ago and he did mention to order lcd+digitizer in one and not screen or digitizer seperately
Thanks i did not know that, me and my friend followed the guide (stupidly didnt watch the whole way through first) and his screen ripped apart at the same time as the video user, just letting other people know so they dont make the same mistake

HTC One X fell...

I need an advice, my phone just fell out of my palm and it's screen is completely shattered. The touch screen is fully functional but the screen shows orange-ish dots. Is the the LCD or the broken glass just presses it?
Screen repair here costs ~500 bucks, which I ofcourse refuse to pay.
TL;DR:
What should I order to fix it myself , and is it worth it?
(LCD + touch screen? )
Also, if I order the OEM one.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-OE...872?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f1ae6a558
will it be the original LCD2 the HOX has?

ยท 110% Brand New (In the ebay advert)! THAT MADE ME CHUCKLE !!
I would ask the ebayer, not us about the LCD2 screen
And if I was you, I wouldn't even bother going anywhere near repairing it yourself, unless you have experience. They are so complex its unreal.
Good luck !
Another question, when my iPod touch cracked I tried to replace the glass... it didn't turn out well. I only ordered the digitizer , at the end it was attached to the LCD.
Anyone knows if it's the same with the HOX? Really can't afford a 500$ repair now.

yeah they are attached normally, hox, the glass is attached to the screen.
my dhd when smashed, was declared beyond economical repair.
its only really if the screen isn't smashed too badly that you might be able to warm it up enough to loosen the glue, but you'll probably damage the lcd itself in the process. and then you'll probably bugger up re attaching the new glass. even htc buggered it up with the yellow spots etc on lots of the early models
you're better off getting the whole screen with glass. it will be fiddly, but there are a few teardown guides for hox, and if you research this enough, and make sure you have the right tools for the job, it should be fine.
if i was in your situation, i would try it .. but i would make a million % sure that the screen i was buying was a genuine screen.

[Q] T320 8.4 - Digitizer or complete screen broken?

Hello everyone.
Months ago my Samsung Tab Pro 8.4 felt into the floor which cracked the screen.
The touch screen was working and the colors of the tablet were still good.
Later I went to a store to put a new front which resulted in what you can see in the attached pictures [I CAN'T UPLOAD PICTURES YET]. They did a really bad job.
I don't know if the problem is just the front screen or if the entire LCD needs to be replaced. The difference is quite big in terms of money.
Can you help me on this? What should I buy: only the front LCD or the entire screen and touch?
Thanks for your help.
Can you give me an explanation, please? I really need to understand why.

The digitizer+glass and the lcd are two different parts. If you see oddness in the screen display in terms of weird colors, stripes or artifacts, the lcd is broken. If touch doesn't work, or the glass is broken but it can still display normal colors etc, generally only the digitizer+glass needs replacement.

LCD Only: If the image under the glass is broken and the touch panel is NOT then you only need an LCD.
Touch Panel aka Digitizer: If the top touch panel or aka glass top is cracked or broken but the image under it is fine then you only need the Touch Panel.
Complete Screen with Touch Panel and LCD: If the top touch panel is broken and the lcd image is either black liquid or cracked you need a complete screen.

Thanks for the explanation.
So, I need the entire set. It's so expensive.
It's a shame that in the end the specs don't count so much. If we drop our toy, all depends on the screen.

Your best bet would probably to send it to Samsung (maybe its under warranty or can make and exception), plus samsung probably warrantys their work.
or find a new /used lcd with the digitizer already pre-attached so its a easy install.

Cracked Screen Repair

Hey guys, good day.
My HTC Desire Eye screen cracked (I accidentally dropped it) and it really looks horrible. I am planning to replace the screen myself, and I am asking if anyone repaired their phone by themselves as well. I'll be buying the parts needed in eBay. I am also wondering if I can only replace the glass and not with the LCD? The LCD screen still looks impeccable despite the cracked glass and touch works perfectly. However, I am yet to find a tutorial that shows replacement of the glass module only.
Thank you very much in advance.

U can find tutorial on YouTube. And yes you have to replace entire screen not just the glass.
My advice is get it replaced from a expert. It doesn't cost much. Also buy original screen don't get a bad one.
