No image after lcd replacement. - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was somewhat successful in replacing the lcd on my phone. Everything apart and back together without a problem other then I see no image. the phone buttons light up and the phone vibrates, but i am getting no picture. I can see the lcd lighting up but nothing. Any help?

You have done something wrong? Could this be?
Check if you connected the LCD correctly.

UGGGHHH!
I thought I did also. So apart went the phone again, disconnected and reconnected the ribbons and board and still the same.

Test all your connections with a volt meter or even a little LED bulb. Make sure it's getting the signals in in the first place. Where was the replacement LCD ordered from?

white screen after fixed touch screen :(

Hi, i'v got a problem. I tried change my digitizer and, when im done, now lcd doesn't work, because it is still white...:/ What can i do now? any solutions?
Thanks a lot
Check your connections. Pull apart and re-seat everything to ensure everything is hooked up good.
everything is fine :/ still white screen
Perhaps you zapped or damaged the LCD when you were working on it...
You could try replacing the LCD too -- but at this point I think I would send it to the professionals
HTC repair or someone like PPCTechs
Don't know if the screen set up is still the same. But when I replaced the screen on my Universal the wiring for the touchscreen was stuck down onto the lcd wiring, as they both shared common earths. Maybe worth a check before spending more cash?
i have the same problem, the screen was working fine before i replaced the new digitilizer and now its just white but i can hear the tablet playing so it must be the screen.i checked all the wiring 4 times now! any idear???
:crying:
Slide the phone open and apply some pressure near where the angle of the opening is (back of the LCD below the SIM, where there is a bar). I had the same issue and this fixed it.

X1 felt down --> no display

Hey
A friend of mine called me yesterday if I wanna buy his broken X1 (it felt down :/) and repair it, because I'm the man for such jobs
Do you think it's only the LCD-flex-cable or another repairable damage?
I think I can get that device for 2-3 days and then decide if I buy it...
Some ideas? Is there any chance to repair it?
Thanx, Carbon
yes, probably even a loose connector on flex cable
Hello,
I am quite certain it is an easy problem, i have seen many x1 phones with just a minor loose connector which causes the screen not to respond.
The best way to check it if it really is just the screen/flex cable is to turn it on, and check if the side lights flash in all colors.
If that works the phone should work normally. (even if the screen doesn't work)
After opening:
Re-insert all the cables in the screen flex cable and check if it works..
if that doesn't work then replace the flex cable.
If the screen works:
Then check out the screen if it has any crack's or black spots.
In that case you will have to replace the screen/touch screen also.
Generally, if there is no physical damage to the LCD itself and the phone buzzes on startup with all appropriate sounds - replace the flex. Flashing lights are attached to the flex and are positioned ABOVE the LCD on flex connection, therefore will not light up if the flex is damaged and neither will the upper keypad and other less obvious things.
The flex replacement is not minor, just be aware of that. Bad falls are also the reason for main PCB damage, in which case there will be nothing you can do.
Thank you so much
It was a "very short" call by this friend, but when i take the device, I want a precise report what happened...
atm I don't now if the sidelights show reaction, but I will report
I'm afraid of a real PCB damage...
In flex problem side lights will not light up, as i mentioned, they are positioned above the Lcd connection, so if the main flex connection ribbon is damaged, as is most often the case, all of the upper level functions will be gone, but you will get a startup with buzz and sounds present.
I got it
And LEDs are flashing and you can start it complete normally, but you see nothing... i'm going to open it and check the Flexcable

Backlight problem after replacement

Hello everyone,
I have got one problem... I broke digitizer of my HTC Desire 500. So I order new one and to be sure, also LCD screen. I replaced, and...
After turning on, everything works fine. Digitizer works properly, screen shows normal picture. But after few minutes - restarts (I don't remember well) backlight of my screen goes down and now it have no backlight at all. I rebooted phone many times, I remounted screen and digitizer to be sure that connections are fine - but no results. I restored factory settings of phone with no effect too. :/
Please help, what happend? What could be the source of problem? I don't want to order new sceen if it could beak too ;/ I read other threats about coil problem in other HTC, but I cannot find any coil in my Desire's motherboard (maybe it is hidden under plate that covers CPU and other parts). I performed tests of light sensor and it works fine. Buttons lights fine too. The problem refers only to LCD screen, and backlight doesn't respond during test.
Anyone help?
same situation
Hello kowal_luki,
I'm just in the same bad situation.
After a bad fall of the phone the screen broke so I ordered a new one for replacing it.
Opening the phone I noticed that also the LCD (and not only the external screen) was broke so had to order also the LCD.
As precaution tried to power-on my device without a complete assembly and everything seemed to be fine, so I decided to glue the LCD to the outer screen (the touch screen) with a LOCA TP-2500 glue.
Then I re-assembled it up: at first the image was a little bit disturbed but the back-light was working; after few second the back-light turned off. I checked the cable, after that the image went perfect but the back-light still dead.
Did you find a solution for this -still not explanable- problem?

[Q] Screen Replacement Leads to Unbootable Phone

So I recently cracked the screen on my HTC One m7. I bought a replacement screen and front housing. The screen was so far beyond repair that I couldn't shut off the phone prior to starting the replacement. I tried waiting for the phone to die but after two days I became impatient and did it anyway (essentially the phone lost power when I disconnected the battery). After transferring all parts into the new housing and being what I though as diligent putting all parts and connections back in their place, tried to power the phone back on. all that happens is that the back and home buttons flash and then I hear what sounds like the audio for when the phone powers on. The screen stays black and then phone doesn't technically turn on. I know this because I have missed messages and the green led light would be flashing if it was. Therefore, at this point I'm not certain that the new screen works or if I've connected it right. I've tried the numerous boot tricks with the volume buttons, nadda. I have had the phone on a charger for a full day and the same problems. (Disclaimer: I don't have the original charger, but I have been using this one for a long time). I do see the red charging led if I wiggle the charger in the input, but also just recently I saw a green led when doing this, which when the phone was working was a sign that it was fully charged. If anyone has a solution to my problem that would be great. I'm also interested on what's wrong, why this is happening, what might have caused this behavior? What do the flashing home and back buttons mean?
Howdy,
I've had the same problem, but my phone was shutdown allready. When I replaced the front screen, the phone won't boot. I would like to know if its anyway to get the files from sdcard down?
Thanks for the support!

Nexus 5 Display not working. Don't know what to replace.

So, I was trying to replace my Nexus 5s camera and I disassembled the main motherboard. Replaced my camera and everything but after I reassembled the phone, I found out that there's no display. The LEDs work fine, because I see them light up and I see that the screen is black but it's a bright black and the screen is on. So after tampering with it, I found that the little USB charger port wire board wire thst connects just above the battery (idk how to describe it, its the orange strip that locks the battery in place) had a direct correlation with the display. If I unplugged it, the screen would go dark and off. If I replugged it, it would be on again. After doing this a few times, I actually got my phone's display to show for a little while before it went away to black again. So will buying a new orange strip part work or would I have to go to the bottom where the little screen digitizer is? I'm sorry if the problem is unclear because I really don't know how to say it or explain any better. Please help.
