Hi, I need help finding a digitizer for DHD.
Last week my phone fell down and the digitizer had broken. I know it didnt affected the screen because it still works fine, but its hard to touch the screen and to see in places with more light because the digitizer its all cracked.
If someone knows where to get a original digitizer for a fair price tell me please.
If possible I want to get it from somewhere in Europe because I live in Portugal and I dont want to pay all those taxes.
I have noticed now that I have another problems, maybe its just malfunction or the pieces are just out of place, but my Volume buttons and Wi-fi, GPS and Bluetooth only work when they want.
Im very upset because i had never left my phone falling on the ground and now I get all these problems for the first fall.
Its was not a big fall at all, it was less than 50 cm and it fell with the screen on the ground.
Thanks! :good:

Well i just dropped my phone at the car wash, cracked the glass on the lcd, so...i was wondering if anyone had a dead BA that they could sell me, all i am looking to get is the top sliding half. PDASMART has the lcd itself for 225, i didnt even pay that much for the phone lol. anyways, let me know if you or anyone you know has one to sell, thank you
Hello,
do you know what LCD is inside your BA? I have digitiser / glasstops for the Sony LCM, these can be made to work with the Toppoly LCM but it is a bit awkward as you have to cut the ribbon and 'spread' it out to connect to the main ribbon.

im sorry i havent taken it apart yet as i still need it as a phone for now until i get a temp phone. i'll look around to see if i can dig up any information on that though. thanks
no one?? fluffcat, you still got your lcd??
Right so long story cut short, my beloved Desire has decided to stop working after being dropped from a small height by a friend, the glass has cracked, the LCD is bleeding, while the digitiser seems to work fine still. Is there anywhere recommended that will replace it for me? Or any decent site selling OEM parts?
Cheers
i have also had an accident with mine. the lcd screen seems to be ok but the glass cover cracked in a million placed. took it to a few repair places and are all pretty confident it can be fixed. only problem is the parts for the phone are not out yet as its so new. have been told it could be up 2 a month. contacted htc but they cant give me a quote, i have to send it to them first.
bump, might take a few pictures of it for your entertainment
Sounds like your friends owes you a new Desire!
Cracked Screen... ME TOO!
I too have had the unfortunate displeasure of seeing my brand new desire drop to the ground on my tiled floor bathroom and land in just the right position fo the screen to crack. Have insurance but as I had just that day switched to a new phone and contract with orange hadn't switched the IEMI number over with my insurer. Long story but didn't realise I had to switch as I have never claimed AS THE INSURANCE COMES WITH MY BANK ACCOUNT NEEDLESS TO SAY INSURANCE DOESNT COVER IT FOR 15 DAYS AFTER YOU REGISTER THE EMEI NUMBER OF THE NEW PHONE... so beware folks honest isn't always the best policy and sometimes having insurance with your phone provider can be a better option!..
No new screens available from any UK repAIRER YET SO WILL HAVE TO WAIT IT OUT WITH A HALf visible (but still working) screen.
I just joined your club.
I dropped my desire just 15 minutes ago onto some concrete stuff.
The glass screen is totally obliterated.....but the phone still works.
So 2 questions.
- Can I but just the glass part and replace it ? the underneath screen is ok
- How much can it cost ? ( if it's possible in europe...if not in canada or usa)
Both display and digitizer can be currently found on the internet, they're not cheap though...

They say LCD, I'd say it's a mistake, not sure though.
Are you kidding?
If it's just 60$ then it's very very cheap......
I will try to buy it.
Ps:

it's a photo tear-down and re-assembly guide on how to replace the broken glass digitiser
howzit guys
i see on the net that theres a new desire coming out and its got a lcd screen coz of the bad visibility in sunlight of our amoled screens
where can we get these lcd screens - mayb its better to fit a lcd onetime instead of amoled again
I also have a broken display.
And last week I ordered a new one on ebay. I got it today, but when I installed it, it wasn't working. Only a faded green light on the right side of the screen.
The phone booted ok (vibration at the beginning and the sound when it's booted - pin request).
Then I took the new screen out and began an close inspection. I was amazed that I found a freaking hole in the display (the original does not have one, obviously).

(there is an tireless w810i behind the screen with led on, u can clearly see the light shining through the display)
I'm going to send the pictures to the seller, and see what he says about it..
Anyone had similar experience? Or any explanation about the holes? (there actually two, second one is right on the edge, can't take a photo of that one..)
Hello all,
I've dropped my HTC desire and the screen is neatly cracked. However it works fine, responds to all touch and commands.
After having read the forums I understand that the screen is basically two parts and I've broken the glass bit but not the actual screen (I think).
I've never opened up a phone or done any hardware repairs and not confident about doing so.
How should I get it fixed? Go to some shop? Send it off to HTC?
I'd really appreciate your help as am a design student and can't afford a big bill. It wasn't insured but they never pay out anyway do they! I was tempted to insure it now hahaha but would prefer your help.
Generally its better to replace the digitizer and lcd screen, but if you ring htc up they should tell you the best course of action, it might be a pricey repair tho

Can you post some pictures?
Hello xda folks.
I'm very new to this forum and somewhat a newb at phone hardware. I'm in a bit of a dilemma here.
So this past 4th of July, I was being stupid (careless I should say). I was longboarding while on the phone (yeah I know), ate it and bam, shattered my screen. Now my screen is cracked so I hopped online and bought a new screen replacement digitizer from Amazon with good reviews so I know I'm not getting some cheap unusable part.
My phone still functions properly. Texts are coming in, I can answer calls and sort of guess my way around. Touch functions works. My backlight turns on but I get absolutely no display. My screen is black, no picture. But backlight works whenever I turn it on.
Does this mean I have a broken LCD? I'm going on a trip for a week IN a week and need my phone to work by next week. Also is there any way to tell if I have a wide or narrow flex in regards to the LCD without opening the phone? I'm waiting for my torx screw which is coming with my digitizer in a few days and can't wait that long to figure out what LCD I need if do I need one.
So my two questions are:
1. Do I need a new LCD?
2. If I do, is there a way to figure out the wide/narrow flex without opening the phone?
I apologize if this is a dumb post/asked a bunch of times. I'm just in a hurry and couldn't find the answers I needed and I'm not too knowledgeable at this stuff. Thanks for your help guys.

Theres 2 videos i used to replace mine and it works great,check to make sure you didnt miss something....
I bought a new screen with touch pad included, from China. The quality wasn't all that bad. One dead pixel and a dead touch area, for50€ was OK. Then it went to the flor and the touch screen just went dead all togheter.
I've already reassemble it, to make sure it wasn't some poor conection of components . What else should i do?
Just buy a new screen even thought this one is not cracked?
Apreciate any sugestion.
Thanks in advance.
I wouldn't buy from China, you can get the screen from wholesalgegadgetparts.com for about $75. All it takes is a hairline crack in the digitizer (might not see it in the glass) and the whole thing will not work. That site has a great return policy too, so you can plug the screen in and test it without actually installing it, and if it doesn't work you can send it back for a refund.
Edit - just noticed you aren't in the US. They don't ship internationally, but they do sell on eBay too (they might through there). Might wanna give them a call, they're good people.
