My Diamond screen has broken(since the stupid technician tried to fasten a wrong, long, nut into the back which cracked the screen)
The problem is since i'm a NEWBIE to hardware repairs, I need help to dismantle the device(I'm not going to the tech guy)
Plus, when he opened the device, since WIFI has stopped Turing ON. From comm manager as well windows, I assume there is some hardware fault after opening the device, perhaps faulty ribbon cable connection or broken side wires(entenna?!)
Please provide help on dismanteling it, and advise on what could be wrong with WIFI.
I'm ordering this display from E _ Bay U.S.A

or
http://orders.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ImportHubViewItem&itemid=270554369035
It seems this second one is better.
Please advise what should I buy
hmm search about microp error... i'm preaty sure same thing hapend with wifi on my diamond when i had that error. cheers
any insights on the screen?
Bulls eye!
microp error
This occurs when while boot diamond fails to find the corerct 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 stuoid NooB forgot to take off the last fblack colored film of the display and reattchaed 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

My touch diamond with rom 1.93 suddenly is very dim screen. When i reset & there is nothing on the screen but i can hear the os startup sounds. After a while i will be able to see something on the screen, but it is extremely dim to the put where i cant use the phone outside. An error shows up right away stating that there is a microp version mismatch & to reinstall the microp firmware. Tried reinstalling the 1.93 rom, but that did not help. still the same error. Can anyone help out here, im at a total loss? Thanks Malik

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.!

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.
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.
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.
I've been searching for internet for weeks and i still coudn't find the solution for this thing ..... my screen scrambles and jumbles everytime i connect to the internet using 3g....3dge.. etc but not wifi
here is my phone's background:
when i purchased it it has no problems at all...
after 1 and half years due to daily use keypad gets hard to press and the screen has a lot of scratches casing too..
so i decided to change the case of the xperia an the tft resistive touchscreen and clean the whole thing..
after putting it all back together it runs fine... checking the landscape camera wifi etc..
i decided to change rom because i think i could make it so new that even the os is changed...
i follow the basic process and it work fine..
after a week i notice that when i connect to the internet 3g... it jumbles the pixels of the screen in the upper part of the x1 even on landscape mode.. it is still there....
i searched the internet and i found old questions never been answered;;
http://www.xperiax1.net/x1-problems-issues/1735-youtube-videos-scrambled.html
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735531
somehow related to connecting 3gs..
i never change to 6.1 because of it's lack of features..
ive change 6.5 roms but the problem is still there....
here is a sample picture:

can somebody... please.... im begging you.... explain these problem with me and how can i solve it....???? PLEASE..... I APPRECIATE YOUR REPLY OR RESPONSE PLEASE!!!! thank you and God Bless!!!
PLEASE THANK YOU.... I REALLY LOVE MY OLD PHONE... I DON'T WANT TO BUY ONE...
dude, seriously. no one answered? it's very common tiling issues. yours just happend due the notification icons animation. most probable cause is vga driver. search for alternative driver.
No idea dude. But you may try to reflash your X1 to other ROM. I had been facing almost similar connection problem, but mine, the WiFi is undetectable. So I try to reflash my ROM with other ROM. Fortunately, it's working back.
this might be some app problem rather than rom/driver issue although some rom/driver handle it better. i just experience the exact issue after installing weather4me app. disabling refresh(update weather) during startup solved mine. maybe there's background app/process that doing something similiar causing it.
I see 3 possible reasons for this behavior:
- the displaydriver of the 6.5-rom is not really compatible to the hardware.
To check this you can flash the original rom and test if everything works.
- the radio interferes the communication between display and board.
This can happen when the device is not reassembled as original
(broken/removed shielding, dust/dirt in connectors while reconnecting,...).
To check this you have to reassemble the phone again.
- damaged hardware thru electrostatic discharge when touching the electronics.
Unfortunately this can not be checked or repaired. You can only guess if this is a possible reason by answering this questions to you:
- did you wear part-synthetic clothes while working on the electronics ?
(this forces electrostatic charge)
- did you discharge "yourself" every some minutes by touching a grounded point ?
- did you lay the electronics on a plastic ground ?
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
