Where can I get a replacement screen

where can i get a replacment screen i dropped mine and its now bust please help thx in advance

Ooops!
Hi, I did the same and the people at O2 replaced it for £70
Not too bad, and I got a new casing as well!
Adam

thanks will give them a try

No they don't!!! already checked with them and be sure to check out the other forums relating to this topic BEFORE you go further - check whether it is just the touchscreen or the whole screen that needs replacing saves you time and money as others have made this mistake!!! I think the £70 price is if you are a U.K O2 contrated owner, cause they told me it was double this price and I was just needing my touchscreen replaced as it was scratched up!!

Hi,
I have a new XDA which basically doesn't work because something in the circuitry is broken and it doesn't make any sound.However eveything else works(what I mean is the phone bit doesn't work,but the PDA side of it does).
What that means is that the screen and other physical external parts are in perfect working order.
So if you are looking for a screen or any other major part,I could be persuaded to part with it at a reasonable price.
DO let me know in this forum and we can arrange things from there.

screen
Hi,
My screen was broken also, did a huge search through the internet and came up with nothing. The only thing that could be replaced was the touch screen, not the lcd screen. I had to sent it back to o2. Cost: 284 Euro!!!!!
It's been 3 weeks now, and I'm still waiting for my phone :shock: .
Succes,
Stefan

The LCD screen and all the physical parts are perfectly ok on my XDA.So someone can make a tidy saving by taking the XDA off me in case their screen is broken.
Any takers please contact me at [email protected]

hm
and how much do you want to have for your broken xda?

I wouldn't like to drive this.Offer me a price and I will let you know if I do accept the price.
But no point asking me to part with it for €50 or something as ridiculous as that as I already have an offer for €75 and am waiting for something better.As I said all the parts are in perfect order and there are no scratches or anything like that.So you get a safety net of all replaceable parts.
I am open to offers on this one.

I was thinking about this and maybe half of what O2 charge to replace the screen is a fair price? On top of the screen,you will get the exterior casing,buttons,stylus the ROM,everything. So I think it is a fair price.Let me know if anyone's interested.

bbanduser
I would be interested in your xda
mail me on [email protected] if you like
Thanks
Martin

Hi Martin,
I have sent you a mail at the mail address you mentioned in your post.

My XDA is no longer available as it has been sold to Martin.
Thanks for the interest guys.

Warning on WWW.PDASMART.COM

There is something I would tell to Forum :
Recently my screen broke , after a research I found www.pdasmart.com had the spare part for my Qtek .
At http://www.pdasmart.com/pdaphonexda2s.htm they advertise the part will fit for XDA IIs / Sx66 / pda2k / MDA III / 9090 / PPC-6600 pda/phone.
So I assumed this was the right part for me and ordered it .
After recedived it on 13 October I realized that the new screen was not working on my Qtek .
Everything else was working , lights , programs through SOTI but not the screen .
I wrote them a Mail asking for assistance , NO ANSWER to date .
I posted here at xda-developers.com and after some work found out what u can read at :
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueangelLCD
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueangelBoardIDs
Now, I applied today at PDASMART for an RMA of the LCD , I'm not sure they will answer .
In conclusion ,
Whatch out for BA LCD replacement and make sure it's the right part for your Board
whatch out for PDASMART.COM who sells too easily parts without knowing exactly what they are for !

not sure if it was my link, but i linked to that site a while back, i never got the chance to order one from the site, i prob wont now, but hey man, im sorry if its my fault.
[EDIT] i just had a look at the site, if you cant get intouch with them by email, why not try giving them a call???, i know america is a little pricey to call, but so is like 60 quid for a screen that wont work, its worth a go!!

I don't think u have to feel guilty for posting the address , but PDASMART should for shipping Sony LCD without knowing that Qtek can have 2 different boards and 2 differend LCDs .
the fact is that often a broken screen means 300 € repair and weeks of time repairing for an object u can find at 500 € on the web , that's really too much !
It seems that HTC is not very good in after sales , other brands like Palm or Ipaq are like open books for users , HTC devices seems to come from an other misterious planet , That's why this Forum exists and is so popular .
I just was unlucky , without knowing I had a possibility out of two and I picked up the wrong one !
But I am still waiting for an answer from PDASMART , I will not phone them , I think I have the right to be contacted by them after buying 225 USD + shipping for an LCD that does not work on my QTEK !
Still waiting , I will be patient for a while then I'll see what to do .
Anyway thanks for the answer !

PDASMART Horror Story
PDASMART shouldn't be trusted.
They held my PDA for over 2 months - never contacted me and never shipped it back when they determined that they couldn't fix it - even though I paid for shipping already!
Use someone else.

2 BA's for sell

Hello 2 all
As far as i was pleased with my BA's i was unfortunate everytime with their screen.That's why i sell them both for spare parts .They are full package,but without displays ,and on the XDA IIs I've lost the vibration.The one is XDA IIs and the other ORANGE SPV M2000.If somebody is interested write a line and propose a price because i have no idea how much does they worth.
P.S.I'm not sure that i've posted this where i should have .Hope not to get deleted

i need orange spv m2000.and the thing is ur u tell us the price or place it on ebay for bidding.

Hi m interseted to buy both of them , please if u can tell me they work or not ,, and how much is the price , and if u can upload me some Foto ,,,
e.g. i live i n egypt ,, how u can deliver them to me ?
i don t know about all this shipping stuff
Thanks

i'll post photos these days ,just to get my camera.both phones work ,just the displays cracked.Tried to make from the 2 displays one and at the end i threw both screens out because it turned out that they were different models . I haven't posted them on ebay because i don't have account there and i'm not very fammiliar with it.I live in bulgaria ,50km away from xplode so you can ask him about me if you have any concernes. Regarding the delivery i don't think it would be a problem but the shipment will be paid by the buyer.For actual price i really don't have a clue so any proposals are accepted.If you can't offer me a price i'll look through internet and post a price these days
Added pictures:

Hi, I would like to buy the camera unit. I´m in Colombia, I don´t know how could be the shipping but I really need that camera. Thanks a lot.

hmmmm..nice. Can you sell all the hardware keys to me?

Insidertip: Where can my Diamond be repaired?

Hi,
The XDA Diamond of my little brother has some cracks between the display and the touch-surface. (see attachement)
I sent the device O2, but they (their service-partner) said "no warranty" and want ~ 300€ for the repair.
I just looked into the service-manual, because I thought about repairing it by myself.
But I think it's to difficult for me.
Now I wonder if anybody know a cheap mobile-shop, who can repair my Diamond.
I live in Cologne. My Brother (and my family) near Hannover. (both in Germany)
But Online-Shops are also good.
Thank you!

the screen is on ebay - item 230285205211. They also offer repairs
search for the dismantle guide (sorry don't have it to hand)

i also got cracks on my screen just like your brother....
I decided to order one of the replacement screen from ebay that comes with the needed tools to do it myself. i payed about 25 dollars including shipping and should receive it anytime from now.... If you r willing to wait , i ll post feedback on how hard it is to do it yourself.
About dismantling the diamond u ll find easily links from google.
Good luck!

how do the cracks actually appear in the first place?
was it the result of something the manufacturer might classify as "abuse" or "accidental damage"?
Often I pick up my phone (HTC Victor) and think that it feels quite fragile compared to something like the N95... so i treat it accordingly - ie, with a little more care..

I already looked throu the disamble guide.
@Sebienbon
It would be great, if you would post feedback and maybe photos of the repair process (step-by-step) wich are not in the disamble guide.
Meanwhile I will do one more try with the service partner.
@bobbified
It just happened. I think my brother carried the device in his trouser pocket (jeans) when he was riding by bike. But imo such a expensive phone should be strong enough.
Also theere is no damage on the outside.
@hays
Thanks. But I am not sure if this is the right part.
My LCD still works. All pixels are fine.
But the "whatever" between the LCD and touch-surface is cracked.
Thanks everybody so far

i just got the kit this morning but the screw driver is wrong( probably because of a different country , i live in denmark and the screen comes from asia... so i ll go buy a tiny screw driver that i miss and then give it a go

Hey,
I´ve got the same problem. But my Screen is more broken
Although it works.
I read the Service Manual too but im not sure if it works with this part:
http://cnn.cn/shop/touch-diamond-digitizer-p-2128.html
Because on the last Picture in the Manuel you see only the front part of the phone and nothing about the part linked above.
So I w`ont open it before I`m not sure whats exactly to do.
Also I asked some firms do make me an offer for repairing the mobile phone.
The best offer is 129,00 € or 169,00 € if the dismantling create scratches on the Display under the touch screen because they are glued.
Very expensive!
Now I´m waiting for your experiences too.

Any update?

no updates

Man i wish i know of the manual to take this apart. You can fix it yourself if you take your time man, and dont be like me man. I took it apart thinking that the black tape under the battery is just tape!!!! And rip the mini-usb power ribbon. Man my heart sank.. So on that note if any of you guys know of a site or store to order parts from. please let me know also....
@lphar56

Is the diamond display made of glass and not the plastic stuff some other screens are made of???

The display is LCD so im guessing glas.. but it has a Touch Digitizer over the top.. that can scratch very easy and is only £15 off ebay

HTC diamond screen replacement
Hey guys!
AFAIK the cracks that appear are in the glass of the touch-screen-unit.
so i try to figure out how to replace this part only.
Is it glued to the LCD?
Which glue sould be used to fix it again?
Or does it even come with the screen?
I'd like to post a guide here if it works, so please help me answering this last question!
Also, replacing only the touchscreen would lower the repair cost to a third...
Thanks!

Still no update?? on the steps to remove digitizer?

I broke the screen of my TyTN II.What to do?

Hi all,
Today I'm writing this post with a very bad mood!
As I wrote in the title, yesterday due to an unfortunate case, I've destroyed the screen of my TyTN II.
The pda is still working fine but the screen is completely inoperative (see attached picture).
Can some one tell me what to do?
Tray to repair my pda is a good choice or is better to sell it?
Over the internet I've found spare part for self-made repair but they're not very cheap... about 120 euros.
The phone still have 2 year of warranty.
Please... help me in that choice!
Thank you very much!

The cheapest way, is to buy a screen and replace it your self. I've done also. You can find a screen for about $40 dollars on E-bay. And find a tool set too

Did you?
I have searched on ebay but I didn't find a screen for $40 dollars.
One of the most cheap I've found is for about:
30 euros for the screen
95 euros for the LCD
at least 125 euros ship tax excluded.
If you know a seller or shop where I can find and buy LCD+screen for 40 dollars please send a p.m.
Final note... I live in Italy...

I HOPE SO!
I'm waiting for the seller reply.
I need to be sure that the article I'm going to buy can solve my problem it self because I understand that I have to change the LCD and the TouchScreen but I'm not sure that he sell me boot.
Moreover I'm in Italy and I have to know shipment price and time.
I really need to have back my TyTN II.
Thank you all!

Tutorial video
As most people allready said it's very easy to replace the broken screen with a new one. I could find a replacement screen complete (lcd+digitizer) for 45 euro's on http://www.2dehands.nl but that's a dutch site so i think 120 for a new screen is a lot of money for an replacement screen.
I found a replacement screen for you at this link
I myself replaced a screen according an tutorial video which made it very easy. follow the video step by step and you will do fine. I have set the video online for you and anyone who needs it at YouTube. Anyone who needs the movie at itself please feel free to PM me. I hope you this will do for you.
Cheers

I would say...
I would say just buy a screen from ebay and replace it yourself.

If anyone needs a screen (or other spare part) I have a tilt where the ribbon cable from the screen to the keyboard went.. Cosmetically the phone is a 9 out of 10 (very sharp) but I have no idea why the cable went.. One day it started having problems reading the sim card unless the phone was slid out and open... 2 days later it wouldnt; read sim cards and the screen would flicker... 2 days later it stopped reading SD cards and now the screen onl works when it is open... wifi & BT still seem to work fine... If interested, PM me an offer... I am located in Milwaukee, WI USA
