So my tilt fell off my clip while I was out in the yard and before I realized it, I had walked all over it. Everything seems to function but the LCD colors area all jacked up. It is faded (mostly white), funky colored, and hard to see what is going on. Attached is a picture of it. Do you think it is just the LCD? (I can replace that for 70 bucks from blackberry8100parts.com). Or do you think I've killed something else?
Any advice would be fantastic before I waste 70 bucks getting a new LCD.
Thanks,
Alan
I just want to know what kind of clip you had?

It was seidio's holster. I really like it but it is def easy to knock the tilt out of it.
If you are willing to open the tilt up to replace a broken LCD then I would go ahead and open it NOW and see if you find other damage. You are looking for anything cracked. There are manuals for the unit in the wiki. If you haven't cracked anything else then your probably ok but the only real test is to buy and LCD and try it out. I assume that slide action of the keyboard tray is as it was before you stepped on it? It it anyway stiff or off? Does it tilt up the same way and with as much ease as before?
Everything seems to slide and tilt up without a problem. There is no looseness, friction, resistance, etc.
I have read through instructions on how to take it apart. Only thing is that I'm going to get a new LCD, I need to use the phone till I get it It is usable, just a bit tricky ;-) I'm a bit nervous taking a part twice. I also don't have the right tools which would come with the LCD.
Guess I'm just going to have to buy the LCD. I can always resell it if need be.
Alan
Maybe try and open it up to see if you have a loose connector because that color thing is weird. Usually you would have a crack on the screen and you would see the crack but instead you seem to be missing some colors which leads me to think that the connector might have become unseated a little.
Any update on this? Something happened to my tilt last night and it's doing the same thing!
Probably just the LCD but it might just be a loose flat multi connector. If there's no warranty then as suggested above you could dismantle just to be sure you do actually need a new LCD. In the worst case scenario you could find that compnents on the d/pad daughter board are damaged. You can only really tell by internal inspection.

I went ahead and purchased a new LCD from fonlogix figuring I could always keep the LCD as a just in case or even resell it. It was suppose to have come with the t5 torx driver and the case opener but the case opener wasn't in the package. I emailed them and they said they were out and didn't want to hold the shipment. They are suppose to be sending me one though. I would rather not try dismantling without it because I don't want to risk anything (nor do I want to try with my finger nails). I'm hoping to receive the tool very soon so when I do and I get it dismantled, I'll post back.
I think just maybe the ribbon cable that connects the LCD to the mobo has come lose.
I know on my Hermes, this was located under the center buttoin, and when I would press it hard enough it would make a secure connection, and it would display normal color quality, and when I let go it would become like a 2bit color quality
Fixed! I went ahead and replaced the LCD and now it works. I examined all connections as best I could as I went along and didn't find any loose ones so I'm not for sure if it really was a loose connection or a broken LCD. Regardless, I'm not going to take it apart again to find out! I'll keep my old LCD as a backup and if it becomes necessary, test it out
Thanks!
Alan
in the future you could use a program like my mobiler I have attached it to check out your tilt that is what I did when the screen broke you can view your tilt on your pc with out the screen
you should post a video on how easy it is for the tilt to come out of the seidio holster... i was actually thinking about getting it.... but i play a lot of sports so if it would knock out easily then it wouldnt really be good for me.
The problem with the seidio holster is that it is open at the top on the sides. Thus, if you or something hits or puts pressure from the side at the top of the tilt (where the power, ptt, and ok buttons along with the wheel are), it pops out of the case.

Thanks for the link. Did anyone download the plugin? I'm getting tired of all these diffent plugins, they will slow your system down over time.
I have looked everywhere but no luck! Can someone please give clear instruction how to replace the digitizer/touch panel?
I have only found instructions how to disassemble the diamond up to the LCD stage only! But after that it does not show how to take the LCD out of the housing to expose the Digitizer.
Hope someone knows how to do it.
Thanks.
The instructions you looked at, where they from the Service Manual or another source?
one from the service manual at XDA-WiKi page and other post from http://www.pdacenter.ru/razborka/razbor-htc-touch-diamond
but both goes up to the same stage and stop.
Yeh I've got the same service manual and it doesn't really go into any detail about how to replace the digitizer. Maybe there's another 'level' of the Service Manual for that. Only question is, where does one obtain it? Good luck replacing it - how come you're replacing it btw? Your touch screen not responding?
Digitizers (touch screen) usually are not being replaced at all. The LCD screen (with digitizer) is the one block. And it is being changed completely in service centers.
But: If you can find just digitizer, then you may cut off with office knife the digitizer from the lcd-screen itself (on borders only, do not cut your screen) and then place the new digitizer on the screen firmly (it will stick to it on borders).
I've done it with my treo 750 yesterday.

Thanks for your input. Digitizers for Diamond are available for sale separately.
just to make sure i got this right, if it is only fixed on LCD by sticking to it without any screws can i pry it out from the front side without disassembling the diamond?
Scratched screen
Ok, So I finnaly scratched the screen. Quite badly, must add !!
I was wondering the costs to replace the screen. Do I need a whole case / digitizer or lcd ?
Also what would the costs be roughly, as I am unable to contact my local repair shop....

digitizer arround 29 USD + shipping.
not sure if LCD is available yet.
if you scratched the screen you will only need to replace the digitizer which is the actual screen you press on.
the only thing is no clear instruction how to replace it!

Without disassembling - no, for sure.
And seeing the video - I would not suggest you to, it's quite hard, cuz it's all packed very tight.
I heard that there's glass in front of screen on diamond that sends the pressures to the real touch screen. But that maybe not true. I guess you'll have to disassemble the diamond to see what the touchscreen is on it.
Or you shoudl find the video, where you can clearly see if the touch diamond' screen have any protective glass..
Kortez,
thanks for your help, do you have link to the said video?
thanks
can't remember where I've seen. But it exists.

We need the instruction on the replacement step, not the part.
I've just replaced the digitizer now on my Diamond...having issues getting it back together though, will go into it in a minute.
Originally I ordered only a digitizer, then dismantled the phone and hit a brick wall when I tried getting the screen from the metal fascia, the adesive is really strong, I actually ended up cracking the screen under the digitizer and so ended up having to buy a screen with a digitizer for £10 more - to be honest I recommend this is what you do - if you order just a digitizer then you have to mess about soldering the cable onto the cable of the screen (as well as getting the broken digitizer off the screen and probably cracking it in the process)
Anyway, my new one came today, managed to put it onto the fascia fine and have started putting the thing back together, but I cant connect the 2 cables to the mainboard part! cos for a start theyre underneath and not long at all! anyone have any ideas?

I thought the digitizer cable can be just slot into the connector type, no? Did your digitizer come with soft ply tools? which to help on plying out the screen and digitizer i heard. I'm gathering info before placing my purchase on the digitizer... Coz its badly scratches, felt and kicked!
No unfortunately not - you have to solder it on theres some contacts for it.
I managed to get all mine back together you just have to take your time and be really careful - it works perfectly now. I'm really chuffed as its a really good spare to have
If I was you i'd order a screan and a digiziser together cause then it will just be a case of pulling the screen off the adesive on the fascia (it's stuck really well you might even crack your broken one like I did) and then stick the replacement on and reassemble!
Hi, could anyone of you make some pictures or a small video about how to get the display out of the body, or where exactly i need to pull the display out.
i have already dismantled my diamond, but still didnt get the display and digitizer out. When i pulled the display i think i broke it somehow, because now my display shows me only stripes...
anyway, my ordered display still didnt arrive....
if you could make a vid or some pictures, it would be very helpful.

how was the soldering part? difficult? as i heard it might melt the plastic cable, no?
If i do cracked the existing digitizer, no harm i see since its already borken though.
Well, i managed to get the lcd and tocuh sceen apart, and now am stuck with the soldering part either.
the sceen has to be pushed out from the inside....the glue they used is pretty strong. and the display breaks pretty fast....
isnt there a way to connect the lcd and ts without soldering?
I'm assuming I smashed my At&t tilt or something, there is no cracks on the screen or anything, but the pic below shows the display I get. I'll have the phone for about a year in about 2 weeks. Anyone have an idea as to how much At&t or HTC will charge to fix this or am I better off buying a new phone? Or any ideas as to what could be broken and how it can be fixed? It doesn't allow me to do a hard reset. Thanks
well i don't know if warranty will cover it or not but you are still under your one year warranty so you could try to get a replacement. Its hard to say what could be causing it. You can check out mike channon's articles on disassembling a kaiser.
Good luck.

Well to my trained eye, it looks as though you have actually cracked the lcd screen. This damage isnt generally covered by any manufacturers standard warranty. Unless you purchased an extra warranty including accidental damage, I think its up to you to repair yourself unless you want to spend 400USD + for the repair. Taking it apart isnt terribly difficult and I have seen links to lcd screens posted all over for no more than 100USD. Check Ebay also.

I don't see a crack in the screen. Can there still be a crack in it that isn't visible or not noticeable until you take it apart? If that's the case I'll either buy a new screen or just buy a new phone on ebay for 200bux. Also anyone have any recommended sites on how to replace the screen?
This raises a great question for me. i work in a clean room/static sensative environment and repair and calibrate many different types of electronics (mostly signal generators & spectrum analyzers). I was wondering if anyone here has actually attempted to replace a LCD screen with success. And if so, how complicated the process was. I have downloaded the schematical drawings and have found replacement parts for the kaiser online for extremely cheap. i will post the site as soon as i find it again.
I did a screen replacement on a Wizard, and it wasn't that difficult. just make sure you don't break anything while trying to pry small pieces off to get to the screen.

Generally you will NOT see a physical crack on the surface. The surface is actually JUST a digitizer ( a separate piece which is built into or ontop of your LCD for input purposes ). The digitizer is basically your touch screen portion of the LCD. What is actually cracked is the thin film below that which contains all of the liquid crystals.
As far as the replacement goes, I believe it is Michael Channon who has the step by step instructions on how to disassemble and replace the LCD. It isnt a hard task from what I can tell. I had taken my hermes ( Tytan ) apart so many times that i could do it in my sleep. Its not a terribly difficult process.
Here is Michaels Guide
Its not in English but its not hard to follow the pictures. He has done a great job at documenting the procedure.
If you are a bit scared to try it yourself, have a geeky friend do it for you ( maybe get him a date to a movie or something lol )
It should only cost you no more than 50$USD to repair ( Minus the bribe for a date lol )
Hope this helps you out !

Thx, I'm gonna give it a shot. I went ahead and bought the screen off ebay from the post by pyraxiate. Worst case I mess it up and buy a new phone of ebay for 150-200, which is what I originally thought I'd have to do, so this at least gives me a chance to save some $$$

Glad I could help
Got it all done, actually my pops did it. Works great, he took it apart just like the Mike Channon pics show, don't know if you had to do all of it or not just to replace the screen, but he did. Only one little annoying thing now that it's back together is that a small part of the black plastic out case hangs out just a tab and isn't flush, which makes it a little annoying when hitting the power/standby button on the right side of the phone. But I can learn to live with that I think. thanks for all the help.
congratulations!
good to hear you've achieved a successful repair!
correct me if i'm wrong...are you saying that the two halves of the phone (screen and keyboard) don't align properly when the keyboard is closed? if so, i remember a thread in this section of the kaiser forums that details (with pictures) how to possibly fix that particular problem!!!
"search and ye shall foundeth it !!!"

As was stated before, there is a thread for the case not aligning. I did some quick looking but to no avail. If i come across it ill be sure to post it
I'm not sure if I'm explaining it correctly. But it's basically the outer case, and around the power button it's not flush. Not sure if you can tell from my pics. I tried also doing a search w/no luck. I'm sure there is some specific name or something other than case that it's under.
When i replaced my faceplate i had the same problem. all i did was push it in...kinda hard, and it poped in, or you could use a plasic flathead and pop it back in...

I think its just like DemoShadow said. I dropped mine once and it seems to be a similar issue. I also just pushed really hard to get it to pop back in. I think its just that clip isnt in place as it should be when it was put back together. If anything, try to take it apart and put it back together

how did you put the keyboard back on????????????????
Can you be more specific?
Hey,
I literally just replaced the screen on my backup Tilt last night. Still got most of it in my head.
What, exactly, do you mean about putting the keyboard back on? Got any pics of where you are now?
This was one of the easiest things I've had to do...asside from it being somewhat tedious. Most of my issues were resolved by MAGNIFICATION! Once I could see what I was doing, there were almost no issues.
I only paid $31.99 on eBay for a screen with free shipping (from USA no less)...less than the $35 I would have had to pay with the insurance through my Provider Dealer...and I didn't have to wait for 3-5 weeks to get it back.
I'd do this for people with broken screens as a service, but I can't guarantee the cost of the screen...it goes up and down too much.
If you can be real descriptive, or have pictures, I'm pretty sure I can help get you back together.
Let me know, I'll keep an eye on this thread...

here's some dismantling guides
http://www.mikechannon.net/page1.html
you dont have to remove the keyboard to replace the LCD, unless u're talking about the outer keypad, which just sits in its spot
My touch screen stopped working on my phone, but the screen is still visible. I'm assuming it's the digitizer. I was wondering if anybody has done or tried replacing only the digitizer. Does this work, is it better just to replace both? Any suggestions? Thanks.
Save yourself the headache
Just replace the complete screen unit (lcd + digitizer).
The digitizer is held on the screen with some super strong adhesive that is nearly impossible to get off cleanly. Also, there are three (4?) thin ribbon tabs that have to be soldered to the board on the rear of the lcd. Unless you are really confident with a soldering iron, it is extremely hard to do.
I replaced my screen unit in about a half hour. Make sure you go to the wiki and find one of the excellent disassembly guides before you start.
Thanks
Thanks, that's exactly the information i needed to know. I found the fon logix video. Is it only a t6 tool i need, or do i also need a t5. I have seen conflicting info on this? Thanks again.
I got my scren unit from ebay, and it included a torx driver and a plastic case tool. I honestly can't remember what size came in the kit, because I used my own torx set. Im pretty sure its just the one size, though.
Good luck!
You might find this information interesting.

Disregard ............
i always replace only the touch screen. okay i've done it aprox 30 times. But i never broke one.
if you decide to replace only the touchscreen, there are 2 types. thus check which on you have, and i found out that sometimes reassamble, and cleaning can help.
good luck.
torx is 5 and 6, 6 for opening the back of the phone, 5 for the screen part removal of the body and opening it. you need an opening tool!!
adhesive
is there a terrible adhesive between the screen and digitizer, as the second poster mentioned? how difficult is it to deal with?
just cut away with snapoff knives. It wil break in more pieses. (the glas that is) just be carefull, and take your time
Thanks
Thanks for all of the info, i went ahead and purchased the screen with the digitizer and tools. One thing i have noticed though is the d-pad has stopped working also, i'm using a custom rom so i'm not sure if it's just that or it's something else. i will prob re-image after i replace screen.

Well, guess I was a smarty pants and bought my stuff before consulting XDA...as such, I ONLY bought the touchscreen rather than the entire new unit. Cheaper, yes, but I had no idea about the adhesive until just now. My only question is, once I remove the old screen from the LCD with a razor blade, how do I affix the new one?
Anyone?
i would love to know this too because i have to also replace my digitizer!

I used rtv gasket maker the transparent blue one worked well.
you can find it in automotive section. Actually any silcone will work.
also can use double sided tape but needs to be very thin
I've already changing my digitizer, but it doesn't seem to work. So I've change the whole part. cost me $20 more on ebay.
my advice is to change the whole package with the lcd too.
I love my tilt. It needs work, I can do. But should I just get a new-like tmob G1 (htc dream?) and unlock it for ATT and styart hacking on that? How cool is the platform? Is it as much fun to have one of those and play on XDA?
You can get an entire screen for your kaiser for around $35 check out fonlogix. The dream is a good phone too, you can check them out on the forum.
I've gone through a screen replacement on my Kaiser--it works perfectly fine, although it was a pain in the you know what to take apart and put back together. Unfortunately, I guess I wasn't careful enough; the upper/lower halves of the phone don't line up perfectly, although its not a good deal. If you value your time (it will take 1 to 2 hours) and you don't want to screw up, just get a new phone. But if you enjoy DIY and want to save some $$ like I did, then go for it
By the way my brother has a G1 that I use a lot, it is a fantastic phone, the larger capacitive screen is a huge upgrade and there are tons of *excellent* ROMs.
Tilt screen replacemnt
I just put a screen in my wife's 8925 a couple minutes ago.
Took about 45 minutes
Remove top bezel, unplug screen, remove. Clean top housing where new screen/digitizer will be, place new in, attach connector and replace housing.
The right hand side, in the middle, is the toughest part to get back together. It may have been easier to put the top bezel back on if the whole phone was apart, but it seemed better to do as I did and not take lots apart.
45 minutes and less than $30 from ebay. Only problem is the screen is not aligned perfectly. most of the screen is proper, but the scroll bars that adjust the time in a new appointment have to be touched more to the right of the button instead of being able to use the whole button. I suppose I got a cheesy screen that the digitizer is not as good as the original one. Still she is happy, and that makes me happy!
@ Hangard
damn your good...guess I need more practice lol
youy folks already fixed your phones? wher'd you get yer reaplacements..
@hangard @ chambord
Where did you get yer digitizer+touchscreen? sounds like ebay. gotta link? how important r toolz?
So Im not clear Ive got spider cracks and 'ppols' of black and not hires display just B&W. Does that mean I need to get a digitizer or a DTGZER and touchscreen from ebay... seems like im finding a lot of digitizers for $10?
