[URGENT]Screen! - HTC One X

I've broken my screen, to be accurate not me but some dude, he paid for the new screen. Ofcourse, he picked the most ****ty store he could to fix it to pay less money for it, it was horrible. Light from the side of the phone was leaking, the buttons didn't light up well, the front camera lense was missing and most importantly the screen itself wasn't like before. First of all, it fell off from the phone all the time ( with just the two connectors connected ), it was horrible pale and etc.
Being the social akward I am, I was silent about it, and got used to the screen after I glued it.
Anywho, yesterday without any warning or anything screen stopped working. Sound is playing, digitizer is prolly working, screen? nah. Black screen. I opened it up few times before as the LCD connector disconnected, it was okay. Now the connector was inside still, connected and I opened it and tried to tighten it up, thought it was loose or something. Nope, still no screen.
Now I come to you, xda, with the need of help.
Where can I buy a REAL. LCD2, like stock screen?
And if its possible, how can I identify if the screen I got earlier IS lcd2 original screen? ( the seller said it was, obviously it wasn't )
Thanks! ( Really hope for fast answer )

[Q] Back light only comes on after replacing LCD and Digitizer

Hello, and I appreciate everyone who has taken a look at this post.
I recently replaced my LCD and Digitizer. A couple of months ago I dropped my phone into the bilge(bottom of a boat) filled with oil. When this happened the digitizer had a crack in the corner and the LCD got flooded with oil, not to mention the phone. I took of the back cover and let the oil drain out. I didn't open up the housing or anything. I soaked up as much oil as possible. Still though, half of the screen was a few shades darker and difficult to read text messages and playing games were out of the question. Everything else was fine, the OS didn't slow down and I saw no signs of rust anywhere.
During the holidays, I got the digitizer and LCD. So I followed the video on youtube from this website on how to take apart the Xperia Play. I replaced the LCD and I used the same adhesive strip over again with the digitizer. Now when I turn on my phone, it vibrates, but the back light comes on periodically for about 2-3 seconds and then turns of. And then a few minutes later the back light will turn on and turn off again. i get no picture from the LCD. I have turned it off and on a few times. Same thing. I have also tried turning it on while holding the power button and random combinations of the other buttons. I plugged it into my pc and when the back light goes off, my computer detects a device but shortly after losses it.
I have read through other threads to see for similar stories. The only thing i can think of is maybe, I damaged the strip of the LCD or i fried my mother board. I just would like to know if it is another problem or if anyone has some good solutions for this.
If anyone can help me, it would be greatly appreciated. I love this phone and this n00b needs some help. Lol.
If it was just oil you dropped it in then the electronics will probably be fine as it is non conductive so the problem probably lies somewhere else. I do many phone repairs, mainly to iPhones, HTC's etc, but I have never done an XP so not too sure on specifics but what you describe would probably be ribbon cable related, either not a perfect connection or slightly damaged. It only takes a slight nick on the ribbon to render it useless. I replaced a digitizer on an HTC sensation once and the phone did exactly the same as what you describe. I took the new one off and put the old cracked one back on and the phone was normal again.
Dunno how much that helps but hope it's of some use

Screen not displaying anything at all

I know it turns on, it vibrates, and the notification light turns on and stuff, but the screen does absolutely nothing. The bottom buttons work fine. I dropped it on a tile floor screen first and it cracked, most of the crack being centralized in where the lcd ribbon is on the top left. The screen doesn't look cracked or anything. I tried opening it and reattaching the ribbon, but it didn't work. Any ideas on what could be wrong and how to fix it? Id rather not have to spend $300 for a whole new screen. Thanks

That screen is gone as you allready suspected. Take it to a service center or replace it yourself.
so nothing else could possibly be wrong with it? I just don't see how a cracked screen could do this
Go to the nearest Samsung repair center ,and pay 500 $ for it..Or replace it yourself but this means you'll lose the warranty.I feel sorry for you and for your N2..Why did'nt you bought a case?I actually have the Samsung Cover + and my dad dropped it .Nothing bad happened.
I called samsung and they said it would be $180 to fix it which seemed cheap but I don't know. I'll probably just sell it as is, buy a temporary phone, and wait for the s4 to come out. I had a case on it, but not the flip cover ones because they were annoying and didn't protect the sides at all. Plus this was a little more forceful than a regular drop.

Cracked screen

Hello!
Today dropped my phone and screen got covered in spider web. The display itself looks fine, but its covered it spiderweb. The touchscreen doesnt respond at all.
What do i need to do now? I looked at local repair shops, they ask atleast 100 euros. But on ebay i can find lcd display+screen digitizer for 55 euros shipped, or screen digitizer starting from 10 dollars!
Can i buy only screen digitizer (as i understand that top layer of glass thats cracked is screen digitizer?) and replace it? Or changing LCD display along with screen digitizer is a must?

So this should fit..right? And are all 3 models LS970, E975 and e973 really same size? Cuz i`ve read people have got smaller screens than original from some sellers on amazon.
Replacing a digitizer is pretty hard and time consuming, that's why people usually replace the whole lcd+digitizer+glass assembly. You will also need adhesive and a heater/appropriate tools. It can be a great learning experience if you don't mind potentially busting your phone. There are no shortage of instructionnal videos on youtube on the subject.
Also, a new G2 is only 190$US .... Just saying ...

As i have two other phones. The g2 mini with Tegra and a razrHD. I'll give a try, thanks for the tip.
Well, i ended up ordering that LCD+Digitzer from ebay. Everything was fine for 2 months, now i have quite large spot that doesnt respond to touches. (See attachment) i already tried disconecting the lcd and digitizer..still same. Is it worth trying to flash another rom? I already flashed stock kdz (had stock before too..)
This happened just today, right after ghost touches went crazy and rondomly oppening everything.
EDIT: That spot is changing sizes..form remains, but it got a bit smaller now. Its truly weird. I put the phone outside for few minutes (its +9C outside) and touchscreen works fine now! What is going on?
EDIT 2: After few minutes of usage, the spot is coming back

I had dropped my LG (more than a couple of times) on its face and it seemed to suffer stroke-like symptoms: one side of the screen was completely dead to touch, and the rest of the screen would occasionally act as though I was touching everywhere which opened programs and messed with the keyboard. I was stubborn and just lived with it and over time, it stopped trying open programs and whatnot. Recently, dropped it again, this time it was a bit more serious. Still no visible damage to the screen, but the "dead spot" moved to the centre of the screen, and again, occasionally tries to open programs and add words to my messages.
At first I thought it all could be related to a software issue. Unfortunately, after installing new ROMS, it never fixed the problem. I bought a digitaliser screen from Ebay as well. I'm waiting on the adhesive tape still so I can't say if this will fix anything. I kind of have a suspicion that its a loose connector (the top middle part of the screen gets super hot only after a couple of minutes of being left on).
I'm just wondering if you have tried taking it apart again to recheck the wiring? I think we may have similar problems (your situation is the first I've come by on the internet that is anywhere close to what's happening to my screen). Thanks so much!

[Help] Display not responding

Alright guys, I need help. I purchased my device right at the launch day. After a month, I accidentally dropped it badly, and even after it had tempered glass at the time (didn't have bumper) the screen got cracked along with tampered glass. Device was new at the time and I didn't want to spend another 100 bucks for display. And it wasn't that much badly damaged either, so I could live with it.
Fast forwarding to this date, after 2-3 months, the device was lying on the bed. A minute before it was working completely fine, but now it's display is dead! It was just lying there and there was no damage done whatsoever.
LEDs, charging, everything works just as fine, but the display shows some random greenish strips at random places when I press power key to turn it on.
Now, earlier accident was not covered under warranty, but this is definitely not my fault. If I take it to care center, how can I convince them that the screen did not die because of accident and that the accident was 2 months before.
Kind regards
try to heat down and the bottom of the screen. sometimes helps for amoled display if there isn't any visual damage to actual screen under glass.

Like I said, there are 2-3 cracks on screen as well when it was dropped earlier.

Ghost touching + Black screen

Dear valued XDA members
Greetings...
My Xiaomi Note 5 screen broke a year ago; I just woke up and found out:
- The screen is flickering
- Ghost touching
- Colored lines appeared
- Eventually everything went into black
Today I decided to repair it... A brand new original screen; so I went to the repair center and the guy changed my screen infront of my eyes.
When I got back to home, ghost touching happened again in a crazy way, I can't use the phone at all, moreover after reboot the screen became black, I can hear sound only.
I am not sure what is causing this, since the screen is new, and the software is fine.
Anybody has a clue what is this?????
I added photos of the broken screen, and a video after it was replaced.
Thanks in advance
Bad cable, connector, or pins not properly seated.
Loose ground. Failed mobo.
Try a hard reboot if you haven't already. Take it back to the tech, they may have a better plan.
