Where can i get a good deal on purchasing a replacement screen for the L29.
What's wrong with it - The screen is black, it is not frozen or bricked, because i hear notification sounds, ringing and the phone vibrates, just can't do anything. I tried everything there is try but to no avail.
Also, do you think I'll need a screen only or digitizer also?

I have replaced several Xiaomi and Huawei screens (not Mate 20x). You have to replace SCREEN. Replacing only digitizer needs special equipment and not every phone service is qualified enough.

What did you end up doing? I'm in the same exact boat. Ordered a replacement screen from Amazon and it was totally off. Sat way higher then the bezel so now my Mate is in pieces
I have ordered and received and installed screen. It is original and all perfect

has anyone ever tried with the TFT versions they sell on alixpress?
they are cheap but some seller even says (actually just one on the Italian ebay) that the proximity sensor won't work anymore once the screen is replaced, because of the TFT version being a bit thicker.

The glass probly not that much, but the labor I think that is more than anything
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App
Cost i have no idea..
But with touch screen glass is not just glass..
It could be The Capacitivie touch screeen or the LCD or both..
Just guessing.. No idea what they cost.. You should find out if someone else had an equivalent repiar job done and price they paid..
Yeah i did the same thing, i was told £180 pound.
The screen is fine its the digitizer that is cracked like yours, i picked one up on ebay for £24.
Arrived fine, was OEM. just need to fit it myself, or find someone to fit it for me.
Their is a actual manual from SonyEricsson in .pdf format that explains how to take the screen out.
If you want it, ill try to find it on my laptop
EDIT: Its here anyway's

Hmm ty guys for your help, as i see im gonna pay that 147 euro as i dont think i could manage to put that glass myself..stupid service
you cant get a standalone digitizer for arc. It comes as a pair with digitizer and lcd. I tried changing just digitizer and screen stopped working. You can get it on ebay for about £50
If i understood corectly u bought a digiter and u tried to put it on your own, but screen didnt worked.. would it be waste of time if i tried? what do you think?

That is correct. The screen and the digitizer come as one assembly. When I tried to take the digitizer off on its own the lcd screen back panel ripped off and wouldnt work again.
I see..thank you for your information and your time, u was very helpful to decide what im gonna do.. im gonna give 147 to sony ericson service for not having troubles in my mind!! Anyway, sone ericson dissapointed me..i searched on youtube for instructions to replace the digitizer and lcd on phones (for example nokia) and i found it very easy job, easy enough to do it your self..
if you buy it from ebay its very easy to install it yourself but i will warn you staright away the quality of images will decrease. When I replaced mine i was very disappointed. Blue colours became greener, and lines appeared when tilting phone. Much better to let sony do it but it is very expensive. Nearly half the price of the phone.

The screen quality should only decrease if it's not original screen from sony.
There are screens on ebay that are original.
Beware of imitations.
I'm buying one today so hopefully get my arc back up and put this Vivaz back in the drawer lol
well, good luck with your arc!!
yh says genuine and original but they are not. Post back here see if you can see a difference. I noticed it instantly.

Also Soldier33, how did you manage to pull your screen off, did you disemble the connections then pull it off with a suction cup of something ?
This is my main concern, is pulling the screen off, as i dont think you can push it out from inside the phone !

I might give it a try tomorrow then, will post results, if it goes well.
If it dont go well, i wont be on this forum for a while lol :S
I used the suction cup from my shower sponge lol. It was big enough to hold on and not too small to come off with force. But make sure you pull it from the buttons side not the top or you will rip the ribbon cable.
Thanks for the tips. Also does the screen come out with the digitizer?
I mean are they liked stuck together with glue or any thing?
Because i just need to replace the digitizer, but worry about the screen not staying in
Sent from my Arc to your eyes.
Guys I just want to give you a hint in disassembling this device through images attached herein.
I think I don't need to elaborate much, just rely on the pic. ( And besides, Im not that good in english grammar lol)
This is for those users who badly need to open their device in case of non warranty.
Goodluck.
Thanks a lot!! I was wondering how hard would it be a battery replacement on this thing. Seems fairly easy (at least compared to One X). How hard was it to separate both parts?
I don't know how to explain but it's not that hard mate.it has double adhesive at the back but it is removable, just take care of it.
Thanks, I ****ed up my screen and repair will be 250-300 euros if I don't do it myself, so I needed this . I'll post some photo's when I have replaced the entire screen (both LCD and glass broken).
screen/digitizer
Anyone who has taken the phone apart know if the LCD and glass/digitizer are fused? I have a desire eye with cracked glass but an intact LCD and was wondering if I need to buy the entire assembly, or if I can get away with just the glass/digitizer. Appreciate any info in addition to what's already been posted. Thanks!

It doesn't affect it as far as I know, couldn't find any "special seals" on it except for some double-sided tape.

Any chance on that video yet, or do you have a delivery date of your screen? I should get mine between today and the 4/5th of May. Will post own results or pictures, but would prefer a guide. Also does anyone have a video on atleast detaching the top and bottom parts (little top pannel and bottom pannel) of the Desire Eye?

I'm thinking of opening my Eye up because the back light has stopped working.
I don't understand why, it has just been sitting around for a month. Everything else works.
Maybe something came loose?

The only issue is I have already "tampered" with the device (S-Offed.)
I'm sure they would have that void the warranty.

Just relock it and flash stock firmware. And I dont think that voids the warranty for your screen, just for the software part.
guys i bought a desire eye.but the camera quality is not good as they mentioned.especially in the night.also battery life is not good.it is made in thaiwan..is it a original one or a copy?i need a good advice.
can't find the crop me in feature also..i didn't use a sim card yet..is that the problem?or what?i'm stuck with this now
Posting in an old thread but....
The glass on my Desire EYE is shattered, still works however. Doesn't look to hard to open up, watching that YouTube video.
Does anyone have a guide on replacing the whole display assembly? I can pick on up on eBay for about £75, and I'm comfortable doing it myself. I've also sent an email to HTC, asking if I'm eligible for their deal where they'll fix your cracked screen so long as you've owned the phone less than a year, and to ask them how much it would cost me for them to replace the screen.
At this point, it might just work out cheaper to buy a Moto G and a Otterbox case for it.
Thanks
Yesterday I dropped my phone while on call from the ear to floor(~6 ft). I think it hit a stone at top right corner near front camera. The screen is shattered and crack propagated from the corner to the entire screen. The frame is also damaged a bit. Even though everything works fine fortunately, using the phone is uncomfortable as I have to strain myself to read.
I wanted to change the display manually and saw some videos. It looks like 'can be done'. But I cant find original LG screen online anywhere. I contacted the service centre and they replied it would cost 7200/- INR (109 US$). I personally opt original screen because of the screen calibration.
What to do? Can you guys suggest something?
Thanks.

I have xtrons 7 inch universal te706pl that I just bought. I managed to crack the corner of my screen while I was in a fit of rage trying to get it to fit in my dash. I emailed xtrons twice to see if they would sell me a screen but so far I get no reply. Anyone know where I could buy a screen?
It's a MTCE_GS unit if that helps.
I bought too many HUs and it looks like I have that screen. If this interests you pm me and I'll send pics to confirm.
Thanks for the offer but xtrons finally got back to me and shipped me another screen for $50

I'm not sure is mine is Xtron. I'm having an issue with my TFT control board so the LCD isn't working. Everything else is working fine. I can put a CD in and it plays, I can also select a track, just can't see what I'm touching as the screen is black. I can't upload any images as it just keeps telling me "bad request".

Check AliExpress. I've see them from around $30 and up depending on if you want the digitizer with or without the frame.

like the person said before me aliexpress, you can get original xiaomi for 40 bucks or oem for 30.
you will get the whole package they send you all required tools but its easier to go to some store and let them replace it
delivery is about 2 weeks with e-packet
Hi guys,
Same problem : display broke
I've ordered an original one on AliExpress...
Any good video/tutorial that explain how to change the beast ?
Regards.
Hi guys,
Had the same problem and got a replacement from Crystal Liao form Ali Express, screen fitted on the frame + tools for $36 .
Fitted the new screen and frame myself and everything works fine, but the screen is sensibly dimmer than before, also playing on PUBG I cannot switch the graphics in HDR anymore.
May be some calibration setting or more likely is just the screen being of lousy quality?
If so I have wasted $36 :crying:
thanks for your input
