how can i replace it...nd..how much will it cost to repait. Please Help, i live in Brookyn NY, USA
The screen on my MDA cracked (which is the main reason I upgraded to a Kaiser) but I found a replacement screen on ebay for cheap, like $10 bucks shipped from Hong Kong with the tools required to dissasemble the phone.
Now, what's cracked though, the actual LCD or the Touchscreen? If the screen still displays fine underneath the crack, you need to search for a digitizer.
If the LCD is cracked underneath an otherwise undamaged screen and no longer displays an image correctly then you need to search for a replacement LCD.
And if the crack affects both you of course need both pieces.
I just looked and only saw one person offering a combo of LCD and Digitizer for over $100 bucks. I have a feeling the TyTN II/Kaiser probably uses the same digitizer as other HTC models, so you just have to find out which ones and then order those.
This is who I ordered from if you want to contact them and see if they have what you need.

thank you..for yer help..no..only the screen underneath is cracked cuz everything is fine except the image doesnnt show..at all....but some black type of thngz
wow another one, welcome to the club of mortified Kaiser owners that had to go through this. you should hit up njbridges (a member on this forum) he sells them just send him your e-mail addy. also try a search on this forum there should be a thread or two with this situation (me being included) your main two options are to ship it to htc for them to repair (which is costly) or do the repair yourself (depends on how comfortable u feel with such an operation) unless there is someone in brooklyn that might be able to help.
Who did u buy it from? egadgetdepot is in BK so u can google them up and ask them if they have anyone that sells the screen.

OKay so my screen cracked, don't know how it happened. I went through town and the people i got it from say that cracked screen like this wont be covered under warranty
Other places said 50-60£ for replacement. and another place said 100£ because touchscreen thing makes repair more expensive.
is there anyone here who knows a reputable and CHEAP place to do this for me in the UK.
any advice appreciated. i picked up a cheap 25£ phone to last me till i sort out the screen on my kaiser.
Thank you.
I got a Replacement LCD for my TILT for $69usd at WWW.HTCLCD.COM
you can pick up genuine ones pretty cheap on ebay, and they include the torx screwdrivers and instructions to fit it yourself.
I have a kaiser with a cracked LCD screen... and i was looking on ebay for replacement parts...
this seems to be one of the cheapest ones i can find that is also in the United States and not in hong kong...

but im confused about... one thing.... whats the digitizer?.... do i need one?... does that auction contain the digitizer.... and is the digitizer and the "touchscreen" the same part?...
i had to do this myself i bought a screen with digitizer included.
The digitizer is the touchscreen layer over the top of the normal screen, not sure how easy it would be replace the touchscreen without the digitizer as its flex appears to be glued to the back of the touchscreen, and the screens don't cost much more with it pre-atatched.
I replaced my ugly mda vario 3 case with a black htc case at the same time, since i already had to have every single component out of my phone to get to the touchscreen. its beatufull now.
I see... well... does the item in the auction include the digitizer?... it looks like a single peice.... and i dont know if the digitizer is already glued on it like you mentioned.....
for me it seems like there is everything included.... replaced my cracked screen 3 weeks ago and had all the same parts as mentioned here...
if your not sure ask the seller not me, the pic may not be the actual item.
My screen busted today. The actual screen did not break but I guess the crystal or whatever shattered. The screen lights up but its not readable.
I found a US seller on ebay of replacement screens but they just told me that it does not include the digitizer which is what makes the touch feature of the screen work right?
Can you take the digitizer off the stock screen and apply it to another LCD?
Does anyone know of any place that sells the LCD and digitizer unit already together so that all I have to do is pop in the new screen?
I had purchased the item before I knew it didn't include the digitizer but I emailed them and asked them to refund and cancel the order because it didn't include the digitizer. In the off chance they refuse I'd like to know if there is any way to utilize the stock digitizer.
Please let me know of anyone that sells the LCD/Digitizer unit as one piece so all I have to do is pop it in the phone in case they do cancel the order so I can purchase another screen.

I broke my Tilt screen, too. I sent it to Mobile Device Repair (http://www.mobile-device-repair.com/). I mailed from Central Texas on Monday morning, had the unit back by Saturday, and it cost under $100 for the parts and labor. Matt McCormick is the person I dealt with.
I'm Matt from Mobile Device Repair and wanted to do a quick updated on this post. I actually changed the name of my company recently to Jet City Devices so if you're reading this post and want to find Mobile Device Repair, you'll actually find us here:

Hello, since the screen (digitizer) has several annoying scratches I want to change it. I've searched on ebay and I've seen many cheap sellers for hongkong or china... Are those items as good as the original ones?
I purchased a new lcd and digitizer for my touch pro from ebay. I know its for a different phone but i cant see any difference between the diamond and touch pro other than the screen shape. (i have also had a diamond) It was £25 for the pair of them
To be totaly honest i cant tell the difference from the original. The touch works perfectly. The lcd screen is also equally as good.
As i tip i would get the digitizer and lcd as one unit, i have replaced several digitzers and lcd screens on alot of phones and it can be tricky seperating the 2. For the few extra quid in my opinion its not worth the hassle, or the risk of damaging one.
Thank you for the advice
eBay Screens are good IMO
I have purchased a couple of Digiter / Screen combos from eBay. So far I have not had a problem with any of them. One that I had ordered was from New York {HP iPaq}, & the other I ordered was from HK {T-Wing/Herald}. I just bought a used Diamond & it has a small scratch on the screen. This is annoying the Hell outta me so, I looked on eBay at screens. I usually try to find a true OEM replacement. I think that I found that @ this eBay page: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260468938303&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT . This is the best deal that I have been able to find. I know you're not in the US but maybe this helps anyway.
I bought a digitizer with lcd from ebay. The seller is from china or HK. The digitizer working good but the lcd quality abit lousy. display kinda dark compared to the original lcd. perhaps the pixel not same as the ori.
Anyway, if you think of just getting the digitizer, shud be fine. however you must be assure that you can replace it as it kinda difficult to change. unless you very confident on you soldering skill.
Checking to see if anyone knows of or has a source (other than eBay) for screen replacements for the focus. I've got a badly cracked screen that I'd like to replace, but samsung direct wants $156 and the cheapest on ebay is $98.xx coming from overseas. Everyone I found via google is in the $120's give or take now as well.
Kindof kicking myself for not picking one up when I had the 10% off ebay coupon and there were US sources at $98.
Just bought 2 screens from a wholesaler. Installed one and its working great. Need sim card replacement tray now. Can't find them anywhere. If anyone has a link please let me know.

I'd like to know where you got the screens too.
www.wholesalegadgetparts.com, US wholesaler, $99.00 bucks, BBB rated etc... I just ordered one.
******** UPDATE, this seller is legit. Fast shipping, and the new digitizer/screen is flawless.
How about some info on disassembly and replacement?
So, if your 2 year old is like mine, he's quite efficient at shattering your phone's screen. SO, I went online and found a replacement screen and set sbout installing it myself. I make no claim at any sort of electrical know-how... Damn it Jim, I'm a med student not an electrician. But I do enjoy my gadgets. Anyway, I went online and found some you-tube videos and successfully changed out the screen! Woo-Hoo! I used a hybrid of the two videos as one of them seemed a little too, much but it had a good rebuild sequence.
The first video has a good description of how to remove the screen (I didn't use the hair dryier and it worked just fine), and the second shows how to put it back. The second video should also be good to show how to replace other thinsg (camera, etc.).

I hope this helps people out there make their own replacements a success!
I have a cracked glass, the LCD and digitizer are fine. I have found someone that sells the outer glass for $16. My question is if I can get the digitizer off the old glass and onto the new one.
I honestly don't want to spend $100 on a screen replacement when I can buy a slightly used one for $150...

+1
On ebay is 12dlls the glass, somebody told me that they fix it in a mall were i am from (Mexico) they heat the screen to disolve the glue but i'm not sure about this. The total of the price should be like 35dlls the replacement.
