I'm after sitting sleeping on my Diamond. Took a nap on the couch, woke up and found my diamonds screen unresponsive. Now I'm not sure if I've broken just the digitizer or the LCD too.
Basically - when you look at the screen, there's an edge of about 3/4 of a centimetre around the outside of the screen that's okay. But a large rectangular shape on the inside that's all multi coloured - like spilled oil. I'm thinking this because i've broken the LCD but I see no cracks. Inside this rectangle is a pattern of dots - evenly spaced colums and rows, but only where I can see the colour.
I've only had this thing a month Please don't tell me I need to go spend €60 on ebay to replace the LCD and Digitizer
I'll try and take pictures tonight.

Has anyone mounted a new digitizer screen on an diamond?
my digitizer is cracked and a newone cost about 20 euro better than a complete lcd with digitizer for 45 euro
but i cant find anywhere pictures or information about this.
i swaped quite a fiew digitizers in the past, p3300 and touch and the good old 9100
but this is something else
I need your help .I want to replace touch screen on my diamond , but I cannot find anywhere any manual how to remove LCD and touch screen. I have buy from ebay touch screen .Thanks for any help
On the net you can find service manuals for the Diamond. On YouTube you can find clips showing how to dismantle it.
BEWARE, it is not a job for the inexperienced. I have replaced displays and digitizers on several phones before but failed doing it on the Diamond.
I think the digitizer and display are glued to the frame.
I find service manual and how to dismantle it. But everything stop to lcd and touch screen .thanks
For sure don't try to do it yourself unless you really know what your doing
best bet is send it to HTC in the US its a 100 Fix.
I've gone through 2 ebay touch screens with no luck installing them when my screen cracked, and eventually just sent it out after too many failed attempts.
their is an extra screen mounted onto the digitizer that you can't get on the ebay digitizers
basically from the outside in,
Ebay:
Glass Screen/digitizer: touch screen
Actual Assembly
Glass Screen/digitizer: Touch screen: a 3rd fat screen mounted onto the touch screen
I had buy from ebay touch screen
I only want to replace my screen and keep the digitizer, is this possible?
So keep the digitizer and third screen an d replace the cracked lcd screen
Yes it's possible .Try with this manual :

These manuals are not enough for replacing the screen only. The last picture is with the frame still on it.
I tryed tonight and i can say that i'm the first person in the world that only replaced a HTC Diamond screen! I wil post a full report soon.
Today i called hTC about fixing the keypad problem, having the top left cornor uplifted from a bad installment, and found out that hTC warranty doesn't cover hardware failure's or malfunction which i found ****ing rediculous... Also called them about the yellow tint on my 2nd diamond and they said they can't do anything about it, but they could swap the screen out for 163 dollar, and swap the keypad out for 132 dollar.... anyone having problems with this ****?
My first touch diamond had the yellow tint and my operator sent me a new diamond with the button problem as they sooner repaired.
Count me in...I called HTC to fix my oil-like film in the middle of the screen while my phone is still under warranty. They refused to do anything about it or even acknowledge that the phone is defected. Can someone provide a phone or email to higher up chain of command to get it fix?
Hey Everyone
So earlier today i dropped my htc and the screen just stopped working, if it were cracked you could tell ( but its not ), if the lcd broke it would turn on but drip colours.
could it be that something is disconnected?
and if i try and send it in the htc its to banged up and they will charge me 300 for another one.
any hellp?
Pay 300 is the best idea i think because mabye is not just the screen that died in the crash
So my Screen broke and I bought a new one so I could replace it, the touch screen/digitizer didn't break though... at first the colors just started washing and fading untill the screen ended up completely dark, I could still use the touch screen and feel when I would unlock it, after a day the phone would not give me any feed back by vibrating or turning the orange light while charging, so I dismantled it using some tips from these videos:

After I put everything back together the phone is giving me feedback again and I can notice its charging because of the orange light, but the screen won't turn on. Does any one know if I might need to do something on the software side? like needing to re install anything? or do you think I just got a bad screen?
Update: I just took it apart again and reconnected the ribbons, its back together and the screen still won't turn on.
You have the AMOLED screen and not the LCD?
Did you compare the #'s on the old and new to see you got the right part?
Cables are the same, they look the same, part # and stickers are different...
What are the part numbers on your new and old screen? I just went through the same thing, but I'm fairly sure I got the wrong screen replacement. Will have to look more into it later tonight.
My screen wont turn on at all. I was so excited to get my N1 back in action as well.
