Broken Tilt screen??

I have attached a photo of my AT&T Tilt. I recently dropped it and I want to know if I just need to replace the screen or if there is another issue. The phone works perfectly but the screen has weird colors and distortion. Also, this is the screen I was looking at purchasing to replace the damaged screen: http://cgi.ebay.com/New-LCD-Touch-S...c0.m14&_trkparms=65:16|66:2|39:1|293:2|294:50 .

I'm not 100% sure, but I think it might have to do with the ribbon cable that goes to the screen.

I just had a similar problem. Dropped my work laptop right on my screen, corner first mind you haha...
I bought this http://cgi.ebay.com/US-LCD-Screen-D...trkparms=65:12|66:1|39:1|72:1234|293:2|294:25
and got it fixed no problem. Took about 2 hours of tearing it apart and reassembling to do.
The screen includes the cable so if that is the issue then you are still fine. The screen comes with the dissembler tool, and the security screwdrivers you will need.
See the Kaiser Wiki for full disassemble instructions that worked quite well for me.

bobtheamazing - can you let me know how is the quality of the new screen?
uzim289 if you bought yours - can you let me know how the quality of the screen is ?
and any personal advice if i decide to take mine apart. Thank you.
I took mine to Vegas, kept it in my pocket, it was sure hot and my screen cracked... need to replace but wasn't sure if i should spend $80 on a certain website of just go the route of ebay.

Before you buy another screen I would recommend taking the phone apart first and just checking to see if the connector is loose. How far of a drop was it and what kind of surface did it hit?

I got my replacement screen from here and it was the best decision. trust me. I replaced my screen about 4 months ago, and my Tilt is just fine.

I bought a replacement for my Kaiser at Marktplaats.nl but that's for the netherlands. Replaced the lcd according the video from Fonlogix. I uploaded the video allso a while ago to youtube which made it verry easy to replace and now it works like a charm again. You might whant to check THIS SITE for a replacement.
Good luck.
:Edit:
I just noticed Fonlogix is cheaper

I replaced my sons Tilt LCD been like 8 months now works perfect no issues!
Not that hard to replace the screen just have to keep a sharp eye out for the teeny tiny screws!

Anybody know where to get the 'teeny tiny' screws? As I was removing the job wheel assembly, the small silver-colored screw was stripped out. Funny, it was the correct screwdriver size and everything, and other screws came out fine.

Brando ultraclear screen protector

Hi guys,
a friend told me that those one are the best screen protector existing...
Can you confirm that?
In addition I saw that there are two types, ultraclear that seems to let pass the most light through and seems to be best option for viewing experience, but there's also the antiglare and I don't know wich is best...
Any advice?

invisibleSHIELD™ for the HTC HD2
I am aiming for this one. invisibleSHIELD™ for the HTC HD2 I tried to post a direct link but as I am a new user I cant. So Google for it.
But I still dont know it I am going to buy the HD2 or the iPhone or wait for a HTC branded Nexus One (bravo?). Even though I am a WM user since years.

I am using Brando ultra clear screen protector. So far so good and the price is rather competitive.

Yes, I know, I already have this! I was wondering if brando's one was best indeed!

I have experience with InvisibleShield. When light falls on it and you look at the protector at an angle, it will look like the skin of an orange. Also, imo it decreases the "smoothness" when you slide your finger across this protector. It's different from glass, you feel more resistance. It's more rubbery, if thats the correct term. However, it is a great protector and certainly worth the money.
So I would like to add something to the question of the OP, which is if a Brando protector still feels nice to touch and does not compromise the experience with my phone?

Brando anti-glare

brando screen protector is not scratch resistant..

htc official screen protector?

HTC screen protectors are crap! Do not buy them for the HD2 ;__;
I had Brando for my HTC Raphael.. But it was hmm.. okay. Not superb.

I prefer (and use) the brando ultraclear. it is almost invisible, very clear, hard to scratch, and it is slippery, so easy to use with finger.
The invisible shield is good for the house of any device, but not for the screen. It is a little like orange, it discolours in 1-2 month, and gets a brown/yellow tone. and it is very rubbery, so the finger won't slip as smooth as on glass or on brando ultra clear.
I made a photo of my used Invisible Shield (it was on my diamonds back for ~2 month)

I bought mine and didn't even touch it and there's a gap between the charger and the bottom cover of the phone where you can see the SIM card. Just a very poor design.

I have the same problem. I opened it to swap the sd card, and since then it doesn't close perfectly anymore.
I called htc about this, and they confirm that they only sell the upper part of the back cover. You can send it in, but then it'll cost you about 40 dollars for the fix, minus the shipping. I just ordered a silicone cover instead.
I just hope that they will start selling those bottom parts too.

I agree with you I have seen many review criticise this! There seems to be a poor quality control at HTC for the HD7, the gap to me looks like about 1mm that's not acceptable!
Fortunately I have been very luck my HD7 does not have that gap!

It's a shame ... seriously ... the back housing is not the only part of a low quality ...
Even the power button doesnt seem to work properly (after two week of usage!) and i have to press it really hard to get it to work.
and I also saw the "Tarnished camera button" in the other thread ...
HTC!!!! SERIOUSLY?!!!

my local HTC repair shop contacted a lot of people but was also unable to get the part. i am thinking of superglue right now ...
superglued down. no other option but its perfect now

The gap annoyed me after I upgraded it to 32GB... So I carefully sanded down some of the plastic lugs and superglued the bottom part to the body. Yup, I know it was quite drastic but at least I've ended up with a perfect HD7... And a voided warranty! It's a shame that HTC allowed this horrible gap. My old HD2 was much better finished.

As much as i'd like to post a link for some back covers for you all there seems to be a lack of spare parts for the moment . I did however find a coverall solution that although doesn't fix your phones will at least let you hold it together until we can buy some at a later date

Lg Thrill LCD/Digitizer Replacement

Hello all! Sorry if this is the wrong place for this post but I saw nothing similar anywhere else and I figured it was an "Accessory" Anyway my question is...I recently dropped my LG Thrill and cracked the screen or glass park which would be the LCD right? Fact is I'm a noob when it comes to new phones and don't exactly know every part of them specially when it comes to touch screen as this is my first one. I looked online specially ebay and I am confused as to what I am suppose to be looking for exactly. Some say "Digitizer" and some say "LCD display screen" a some say "Touch Glass Lens Screen Digitizer" Basically I just want to replace the cracked glass part which would be the screen? LCD? Everything else works as far as the touchscreen part its just the glass thats cracked. Any clarification and help would be great..Thank you!

I think you need a Digitizer

If you still can see the boot screen everytime you boot up the phone than I think you need a Digitizer or the touch screen. This part is seperated from the lcd which show us the pictures.
I had changed my touch screen once before, and my "Digitizer" is ~ $40:

On the other hand this is the LCD, price ~ $30:

You can see they are totaly different so you should not be confused
Also notice that P920 and P925 have the same display & touch parts

Screen cracked : replacement screen with or without frame ?

Hi there,
I recently dropped my dear Z3 Compact on a rock and the screen is completely cracked (glass + screen + digitizer).
I really love that phone and I want to try to repair it by myself (also, I would like to get back my pictures...).
After a couple of day of Googling, I found that I could by a replacement screen without frame or a replacement screen with frame. It's roughly the same price, so I don't know what to choose.
Is it easier to change the all frame since the screen is already glued ?
Is it more reliable with the frame ?
Thank a lot for your help ! (And long life to the Z3 Compact! :victory: )

Definitely go for a screen with frame. I would suggest to buy second hand but original screen as the "chinese" versions are low quality. If you would buy just the screen without the frame it is really hard to stick it into the frame and if you eventually do it after a while it will come off or start to come off. Hard to stick I mean there is not much space to put an adhesive tape unless you'll get some original adhesive tape for it. But from my experience I was giving extra $ to purchase original screeen with the frame. Changing it its not so complicated but you have to be carefull with ribbons. Good luck

Thank you for your help.
Finding a cheap second hand original screen seems not really easy nowadays. So, I think I would have to try the "chinese" ones.
I found an offer for a Z3 Compact replacement screen with frame on a website called eTradeSupply.
Do you know this website ? And the quality of their products ? It seems that grade S+ is full OEM but I am not sure if it's true.
