Hi,
My father has a Tab S 10.5 and the inner of the Display is cracked (I can't feel the crack with my fingers). If I plug in the charger it Vibrates and sometimes the Lights of the back and multitask button lights on. I opened the case of the tab but I'm not sure if it is enough to change the display, there is no response on the now cracked display except the things I mentioned above.
What do you guys suggest?
No one ?

If you're not to knowledgeable with how to replace a screen look for a guide on YouTube or take it to a repair center.......
It's not that I don't know how to do it, my question was what else could cause for the tab not to boot except the display

Sounds like it is booting, you just don't have screen to see it. The LCD on the tablet is broken, it will need to be replaced. Think about unplugging the monitor on a desktop PC , it will still boot but it will be really hard to use....
I broke my T700 the same way, the top glass is fine but it won't lite up. I can look at my Google account and see that the tablet is still syncing information even though I can't see it. I did a little research after I got done panicking. I ordered the parts I think that I need BUT- tIs is the season and I have WAY to much to do. I got this T800 for less than the parts for my tablets screen (LCD & digitizer!)
The people here are GREAT assets but they are way past holding hands. Everything I said except the personal stuff was told to you in the last post, you just need to read it. I'm not trying rho be rude but the info IS here. This site seems to be based on those who need and help themselves get the help they need.
Happy Holidays
And I hope my lurker self didn't overstep the community standards with my comments......

Hey Everyone,
My LCD screen seems to not be displaying colors as well as it should, almost as if it isn't displaying all the colors that it is in fact capable of...
I had some prior problems with my phone, including a non-functional power button, a digitizer with some unresponsive blind spots along the left and right side of the screen, and a very faint/low volume through the in-call speaker.
I had been planning to go inside my phone using the teardown/repair guide, and actually ended up stripping my phone down to the LCD panel.
The good news is I have fixed all the problems that I had set out to fix while doing the teardown.
HOWEVER, my screen is now a weird teal/blue color. For example, when I equip the standard HTC skin (the one with the nice colorful bubble background) Instead of the notification bar/button being a solid steel gray, they seem to have striping pattern with some dull colors of gray but with this teal coloration.
I was wondering if it is more likely something to do with the pcb/lcd getting slightly damaged when I did the teardown, or is it possible it is something to do with a setting on my phone? (the boot screen did load up once, when I was doing the teardown and checking if my phone still worked, I chose reboot as the option)
HELP!
Well more then likely it is the conectors I've seen it to many times when people dicide to take apart phones id say take it all apart and make sure your cabbles are plugged in nice and and firm report back and tell me. Also make sure you havnt nicked anythng on the pcb boards (traces or anything) no nicked cords ect

Same thing happening with mine, it's a week old and I've never taken it apart.
Only thing i can think of that happened that makes sense is a damaged pcb flex cable, thats it.but the weird thing is i fixed everything else. Its annoying cause videos look wack and taking photos is also messed. Ill probably go back into my phone and see what i can do, ive opened it like 8 times so wont be too hard.

Just wonderening if anyone found a solution to this problem as I am experiencing the same thing. I have never taken my phone apart. I have my own post called display color problems. Please help! This is absolutely obnoxious!
I sent mine back to Bell for repair. Took 2 weeks, don't know what they did but it works great now.
Was that an expensive repair? Wish I knew what the problem was so I could try to fix it myself.

Actually it was covered under warranty so cost me nothing.
Well thanks anyway.

Is your phone not under warranty? If it's because you rooted it, you can relock the phone with gfree and restore the BellMobility RUU...
Yeah I guess I could but I really can't go two weeks with no phone. That's the main problem.

Figured I'd give this thread a bump. Really just hoping that someone out there has some experience with this problem. I've searched the net high and low to no avail. I don't want to waste money on unnecessary parts if I just need one. Presently, I plan on replacing my LCD. If anyone has any other suggestions, I'd love to hear them...
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
This happened to me before i first opened up my phone. I wouldn't replace the LCD because i cracked mine, and had to replace it and it still does it. Just try and get a replacement phone from your carrier or the store from which you bought it while they fix it. Easiest option.
Hello Everyone,
I dropped my White SPH-L710 yesterday which I was using on page plus. It has no scratches, cracks or dents on the glass, however, there is no display and no touch functionality.
When I receive the call, I can hear it ring and everything but cannot answer because the touch isn't working. The screen is dark so there is no display either. Physically it looks fine but I suspect the LCD is a goner. Any help on what I can do to fix this thing. No insurance or warranty here. I'd rather not spend a lot of money on this.
Thanks in advance for the inputs.
I believe this happened to me one time when I had my epic. I freaked for an hour... Then decided to try and Odin a stock tar... Fixed it. If your phone is ringing and working it means your display is jacked. I'm sure there is little you can do. Hopefully you have insurance.
Try to Odin... But attempt to get your phone into download mode using your memory. Volume down + home button + power button.... Wait 5 seconds, press volume up. You should then be good to go. Only advice I have.

You can replace the screen and digitizer I'm not sure how much $$$ it is though. Their are instructions on thia forum.

@RealTic
I tried that. The display is dead, I can't see anything when booting up, or in the recovery, or in the download mode.
@Speedin07si
I was thinking of ordering this and trying to work on it myself. Can you point me to the thread, and let me know if this is the right thing to order given the description of my problem. Thanks, much appreciated.

Search how to take it apart, and check for loose ribbons. If everything looks good then purchase a new one.

@csmasn
Thanks. I opened it up and checked everything and it did not help. So I guess the only way to fix it is to buy the LCD and digitizer.
This might help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzFU_8kYDdw&list=PLCvcbJqO8a2335FcP8CKfA_IvIWlHv4VH&index=1
Hi everyone,
I am using htc one x for over two months now, and recently i have noticed that my lcd is not working correctly.
I am using arhd 31.1 now, and before that i have been using arhd 31.0, and so on and so on...
This error happened when i installed arhd 31.0, but i tought that it was the rom problem so updated my phone to arhd 31.1. And problem still persists.
The problem is following, part of my lcd display does not recognize gestures, or touches or any other input, it is like that part of lcd or digitizer is dead, i cant do nothing in that area.
Picture explaining problem more precisely and effectivly is in attachment, those lines you see should be continous.
So what do you guys think this is? I am really pissed and you cannnot imagine how much this is annoying :/
Is this hardware problem or something else? Just so you know my phone never dropped, and it was never punched or anything.
Any help or somekind of advice would be great.
And I dont have a warranty.
Regards.

I had the same issue with mine. It was deemed a hardware problem and the retailer gave me a credit to purchase a new phone. Mine was still under warranty.

Had a similar problem but with the lower part of the digitizer, had to replace the whole screen+digitizer assembly(pity you cant replace only the digitizer).
I have one question tho - was your phone in moist environment -e.g pocket while running etc?
I cannot say it was in moist environment, but i use endomondo a lot while running, but then phone is in armband never in pocket.

I have this problem too,but in lower part of screen.I turned on visible touches in developer options and it just skip this area.And my auto touches in this area sometimes.
I have solution that worked for me but problem is coming back sometimes,so i must do that all over again.I hope it will help to someone still using this phone.
I solvet the problem by pressing up right edge of of my phone.When i press it it looks like its coming back to place.Try pressing phone with two fingers on edges of the phone and see if it makes the difference.And if it not work use lighter igniter,just google unresponsive part of touch screen fix with quartz lighter
I hope i helped and if you have any questions ask me.
And sorry for my BAD english!
I have searched the entire forum for the similar problem i am facing but couldn't find any and had to write to you in private.
I have bought my device 3-4 months ago from Bangladesh and cant claim any warranty or replacement. My device screen is flickering more often day by day at the bottom right corner. Its like a screen shot of the top or any other portion of the tab that is flickering at the bottom right corner. I tried the brightness issue, didn't work. Then I factory reset my device thought might be a bug but still no luck. Now i am worried whether this is a hardware problem or not. But i never dropped the device. So shouldn't be one.
I recorded the problem with my mobile to be more precise. Video attached herewith in zip file.
I would be really grateful if anyone can help me out with a solution.
Thanks.

It seems like your CPU/GPU is burning out... I had the same problem when over clocking my old Galaxy Ace..
The problem may not be the same, but its all I can think of.
EDIT: it could possibly be because the ribbon cable that connects the Screen to the MoBo is loose?

If the ribbon cable is loose, power off you device and pull the back cover off and have a look.
If the CPU/GPU is burning out, the only thing I would suggest would be a moderate under clock of both units and pray that your device will last, alternatively, throw your device at a wall to preemptively break it before they do die and your device becomes a really crappy decorative ornament.
Seeing as you cannot get a replacement, your only option is to try and keep it from happening by any means.. It is only a matter of time.
OR,
I'm wrong.

Last night i showed my device to a professional and as this device is not much available in Bangladesh, they are not expert enough. Though he suspected it might be the cable issue but he cant be sure. He might get it right if he gets another same device to test. So m left with very few options :crying:. I got to wait for the parts to be available or i got to contact the Asus product importers but fingers crossed. Disappointing...its just a couple of months and lot of money for me.
Anyway...thanks for all the help and support. Appreciate it.

I face the same issue on my nexus 7(2013). Is there any solution to this?
Sent from my Xperia Sola using Tapatalk
I have this issue as well. Got a 16GB 2013 model free that had a shattered digitizer. Replaced the screen and for about 24 hours it seemed fine (only a little use). As I began to check it out and use it I started getting this odd flicking glitch on the bottom right of the screen, right edge to about 3/4 or 4/5 to the left. over time the amount of time the glitching occurs has gotten longer, and after re-seating all of the cables (they're in good and straight) it's pretty much constant now.
same here. i haven't even overclocked my tablet i might have to open my device up some time...
GT-N5110 wifi version. Ive had this device for 10 days. Out the box it was running 4.1.2 and seemed work great other than the occasional 3-5 seconds when screen would become unresponsive during normal use. After using it for a few days I decided to go ahead and update to 4.2.2 thinking maybe it would fix the screen issue. It did fix that issue but now im having another problem. After the device sits dormant for awhile the screen doesnt respond to touch but still works fine with the s pen. Ill turn it on after sitting all night and after swiping to unlock the screen it becomes unresponsive. I usually have to lock/unlock the screen several times before it will start responding. After it starts working I can be on it for hours with no more problems. But if I lock the screen an set it down for awhile when I go to use it again it does the samething. It seems like it has to warm up. I tried doing factory data reset but that didnt help. It is rooted also but the only thing ive done so far is get rid of some bloatware.(i didnt root it untill after the problem started). Anyone have any advice?
Do you have your note in a cover , and if so does it have a magnet.

That does sound rather crazy, the unresponsiveness is out of the ordinary... did you try turning off a lot of the extra features built in by Samsung? another thing you could do is download Clean Master from the play store and take a look at your Ram use-age and clean out some cache files with it, this might help with the lag. The touch response could be hindered due to a case or screen protector... other than that the only thing i could think is if there was physical damage done to it before that could cause the touch screen to act that way.
Ummmm... I would have taken it back to the store and asked for a replacement.
That is not normal at all. even with the device's settings left alone, there should not be any issues with responses with touch.
Note... The pen feature is totally separate from touch. The screen has two different features, one being a digitizer for the pen function the other for touch. It is possible that during assembly that the connection for the touch screen is faulty, as a bad solder joint during wave process could make the connection heat related. As the device cools, the contacts contract causing a fault with touch operation. When heated up from normal use, expansion forces contact between connector and board for normal operation to function with touchscreen.

Thanks for the FYI. I was using the moko whatever with a keyboard and I got the freezes all the time. I was thinking about the official Samsung one but if that gives you problems then forget it. I almost sold this thing on eBay cause I couldn't take the freezes anymore. Now I use a tpu case with it and couldn't be happier
