No light on my HTC - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

First I want to say hello to everybody because this is my first thread.
I found a lot of solutions for my problems on this forum but I can not find solution for brand new problem that appeared yesterday. The thing is that my phone fall out from my pocket and now I do not have any picture and light anymore. I can turn on phone, synchronize with my laptop but no flashing light on buttons and no picture. The LCD seems OK (no scratch or visible sign that is broken).
Does anybody know what is wrong or what can I check? Phone has no warranty anymore.

try and get the help from general options.
if you cant get this fixed.. please let me know..
i am badly in need of dead Touch diamonds..
we are working on a college project....
please be kind

I managed to repair it. I opened it, put all together and it works now. I think that one (or both) connectors on the back side of main board lost connection when the phone fall on the floor. So lucky me, I have a working phone.
Sorry asnaveenkumar, now it works.

Use warranty if you have. Goto a tech guy if possible. If no solution then sit down and get ready to rip it apart.
P.M me, i'll help all i can, cause i'm in the same boat, but in despair. Have no hope left so have boldness to do anything.!

microp error
This occurs when while boot diamond fails to find the correct hardware radio, wifi and Bluetooth
Well the small cable was not attached properly so i opened and attached it. Hell of a job, HTC are very compact.
And WIFI bluetoth back on.
Warn you this cable is very delicate and HTC's original manual says to replace this cable once you open your device. But where will you find a cable?!?!
And I have got the screen from ebay U.S.
Now while replacing the screen the tech guy stupid NooB forgot to take off the last fblack colored film of the display and reattached the new one over it, so now the digitizer isnt wrking properly and the new screen appears very dark.
I have to do it my self. I dont know if i will ever have my diamond back again
For display and lower keyboard panel(having buttons and breath)
You have to attach two small connectors. They are very hard to install and yes it would be better you get it done from some place.

Random Rom Request... :)

Hi all...
I've not really posted before so, first of all, "Hi!! " *waves maniacally*
While I know there is no best rom and they're all different, I was wondering if anyone knew of a rom that didn't need the Touchscreen??
The reason I ask is that recently the touchscreen on my X1 has been having random fits of deciding it no longer works... i thought it could help to re-flash a new rom, but when it started back again it comes to the screen alignment setup page (forgot about this) and i'm stumped, since the touchscreen won't work right now...
Know it might be a random question, and probably unlikely, but any suggestions would be great!!
probably not...
but seeing as your x1 seems to be, well, broken, you should really get it repaired, before it just goes completely kaput!
Hi,
If you leave in Holland i can fix your telephone you only need to order the part, and bring it with your telephone and i will repair it for free! Did this before with different sony ericsson phones so got some knowledge of it.
Greets,
wouter
your ribbon cable has probably worn away ( a common problem)
My touchscreen didnt wanna work when the keyboard was out for some reason lol. I sent it for repairs and they fixed it in under 48 hours. Quite impressed i was.
same reason! ribbon cable was worn away. happened to me too, unfortunealt took SE a couple of weeks (due to a postal strike perhaps)
See... that's the weird thing... I thought it was a physical hardware thing, but after loading the new rom, eaxch time i turn the phone on, there's a screen before the align screen setup that says "tap to setup windows", and when i tap that, it progresses to the next screen... It's like it's sort of working but it depends on the screen it's on??
Thanks for the kind offers, but living in ireland myself, so might just tackle it myself as a home-repair... if i can pinpoint the problem...
Happy St. Patrick's Day zac! Let's get hammmerrrrrrrrrrred!!

G1(Dream) Touchscreen HELP!!

I was flashing a rom the other day (that i had flashed in the past and worked fine) and then i noticed that the touchscreen did not work. (everything else worked)
i flashed back to the cyanogen rom and my touchscreen still did not work.
(when i say my touchscreen doesnt work i mean that i cant touch anything, not even the android to set up my phone)
the trackball works but i am FORCED to touch the android and i cant
ive been flashing and still no luck, any ideas on what happened to my touchscreen or any ideas on how to fix it?
please help!!
I've seen a few of the threads. More than likely your touch screen has died (hardware issue - not software) and I'm not sure if that's replaceable.
Ask a technision :/ like the guy above said its proble the tS died may need replacement or ribbon isnt connected rite .
So whats my best bet in going about this?
i dont know what to do :/
if you feel like your able to take apart the phone and replace the screen, you could always try it. either that or buy a new phone or possibly a cell phone repair shop if you even have one.
i decided to kinda drop it.
it works now...
thanks for your help anyways guys!
D:
I wouldn't be DROPPING it to fix it...
Problem is probably a badly seated ribbon cable, which means it is STILL not well seated and will probably happen again.
Look in the screen hinge as you're sliding the screen open -- see the little ribbons in there? Probably got yanked a little.

Droid 3 screen stays black .

So the phone (XT860 Bell) has problems when I unlock it the screen stays black. The phone works though cause when someone calls I can still pick up as I know somewhat where the green button is. But for the rest I can't do anything.
The only way to get the phone back is to remove the battery and restart the phone. Then it works again.
Anyone else had this problem?
have you tried hard resetting it?
No will do so. But before doing that I thought maybe there is some simple solution.
After the update to 2.3.6 things went all a bit wrong I think.
If you got this after the update, I am quite confident data wipe will solve your problem. You can try wiping cache only first - this way you won't lose your configuration and might solve the problem. The update supposedly wipes cache, but maybe that didn't work properly while you were updating. Enter stock recovery and give it a try.
Hey thanks for the help. But just did a reset. Not sure what went wrong when I did the update. Did wipe. Annnnyways. Right now it's stable. Let's see if it stays like this.
Ok sadly the reset didn't fix it. It took a whole day to go black again but still happened.
Any other solutions? I am scared that it's a hardware failure...but let's hope not cause I am in Holland.
I have the droid 3 and the same exact thing is happening to me. Sorry to tell you this but it has to deal wit the connector between the keyboard and screen. I've taken mine to get checked by a "phone doctor" and they told me that. I will tell you this now ,since it is still in the early stages, it's going to get worse to the point that it will stay black. Get it fixed by a techy or get a replacement soon. Mine reached it's point today and I am going to need to get it fixed. Hope it helps.

Doesn't sound good man :-(......
Though it happened a lot the passed days since the reset ( knock on wood) only once. Do wonder why it happens less now.
Yea you can reset all you want it's going to go blank. I had to right the dial pad numbers with marker on the screen just to make calls. I say get it fixed or replaced soon
I've got the same issue here. I know the thread is old, but I'm from the Netherlands (just like eezdva) and would like to know how to repair this.

If you can't take it back and want to try to fix it yourself you need to search for a droid 3 flex cable. The one you want has the front facing camera, front sensors and earpiece speaker on it. Then head on over to ifixit for a teardown guide (sorry no repair manual yet, I plan on working on one).
I have to add that taking this phone apart to replace this part is no small feat, and it would probably be better finding a phone doctor to do it for you, or just getting a new phone.
When you buy the part, request an OEM part, I have been sent cables where the front facing camera displays sideways, or doesn't work at all. Most also don't come with the front button deflector, and that has to be transferred from the old cable.
Hope this helps
Ok . Well I don't really know what the problem is. But it went away. Actually it started I think after applying the update . I got myself another external sdcard . At a certain moment I decided to remove it and things cooled down. It now actually never happens anymore.
Well I gues you're lucky!
My screen sometimes starts all scrambled and the phone doesn't power on. Sliding the screen a couple of time sometimes helpes, but most of the time I don't really know howto get the phone working again. I think it's more stable when I leave the phone 'slided out' (don't know the right word now).
And I searched Motorolas website and found 2 reparing companies in the Netherlands. They both are authorized by Motorola, as of such I think this repair will be in warranty.
I do have to send it for repair. I don't want to take it apart because of what bitz_dv said. I'll let you know!
No Fix
When I was gone on a short holiday my college got a call from the 'authorized' motorola repair center. They can't fix my phone. I need to pay 11 euro to get it back and that's it. I tried calling them but there was no answer.
I sended my phone in on 22 may 2012 and now they decided they can't repair it. I spoke to Ted from Negri Electronics who told me to get in touch with Motorola as my warranty is still valid.
I'm a little confused, where should I go if an official repair center can't fix my phone but do tell me the repair is within warranty..
What can I do? Besides ordering the parts and take the phone apart myself..
I started my search for the flex cable... I did repair a N97 once, within the warranty period and later on sended it in and they repaired it under warranty....
Is this the cable I'm searching for:
http://www.globaldirectparts.com/Motorola-Droid-3-XT862-Motherboard-Flex-Ribbon-p/mot1040660.htm
I am from Netherlands, and have the same problem with the screen, looks like many users from Netherlands do.. coincidence?
When i jst slide out the keyboard , a little bit is enough, and the screen goes black ( black screen of death ) it doesnt power on with power button.
I looked for a flex cable at ebay, and it surprised me , that cable is also doing the front camera, and speaker... My front camera wasnt working too, and speaker made strange sounds many times, so it could be that cable, but not sure.
Check my thread, i have also uploaded a video to make it more clear

[Q] HTC one M7 Screen dead

​Hi there can anyone help me please on this matter.
My wife has a HTC One M7. last week the phone fell in to the bath. I managed to open the phone up and clean it.
The phone was taken apart and cleaned correctly using the correct circuit board cleaning solution (sorry cant remember the name).
I then ordered a new battery as the old one was not holding full charge. I also ordered a new screen + digitizer as the old one was cracked.
I have put everything together and charged the phone.
The phone charges correcrtly and has no problems at all.
When i switch on the phone it starts as normal and makes normal sounds etc BUT the screen is dead.
There is NO life in the screen at all even though its a new screen etc.
I know that the old screen is working and even using that i still get nothing.
Has anyone else come across this issue ?
Are there any guides to test the screen driver IC etc ....???
Thanks for your help in advance
It seems like that you have got a faulty screen.

MIght be a faulty screen as said above, maybe a broken or badly connected flex cable. And since the phone went into the bath, maybe a defective motherboard. Its very hard to tell.
as @alray said, it's hard to judge what's the cause of the dead screen, it may be one of the three causes.
so first, you can connect your old screen to the motherboard, if it can still work, to check whether the mother board was damaged or not
if the old screen can be lighten up, you can exclude the possibility of damaged motherboard.
second , you can connect your new screen to the motherboard again. Just be carefully and pay attention to the connector. Make sure it is connected correctly. If the screen can't be lighted up, you need try to use achohol or something else in a small brush to clean the connector. Handle gently to avoid damaging the IC. After that check whether the IC has lost some part or not. Then, if the flex cable or connector is fine, you can connect the new screen to the motherboard again.
finally, if the new screen still keep the same same situation. you can almost judge that you ordered a defective part.
May the steps above helps!
Hi there
the screen works fine as well as the connectors.
These have been tested on another htc one phone.
I have noticed that the motherboard connecter is damaged..... i will try to get some pics up later today.
Thanks
