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

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.
I dropped my HD2 and now i have a broken screen...but i can still see the wallpaper behind the broken screen and can use the hard button to receive calls.
Only thing that is not working is the Touch screen.
Now i dont know what to get...Should i first get the LCD screen and try to see if it'll solve all the problems...or should i get the digitizer? Or both?
Thanks
If the LCD is not broken then you need a digitizer. But the two are bonded together quite strongly, I am sure someone will tell you what to do for the best.
If you do get a new digitizer then you should make sure you get a T-Mobile one, the HTC ones have a different connector..
I recently replaced a digitizer and amoled screen on the N1. The screen powers up just fine and the touchscreen is responsive when I leave everything out of the metal housing. After I put it in the housing, the amoled screen does not show anything. What should I be looking for? I can only assume the housing is making contact somewhere to cause this. Any suggestions? Thanks.
It was in my pocket and I ran into something. I bought this on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003XMD9I2/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
Is this enough, do I need to buy a new screen AND digitizer? or is this digitizer ok?
The digitizer is the actual screen that you touch. The SLCD and/or AMOLED screen is a different screen that lies below the touchscreen. When that is cracked, colors will start to bleed and the screen will eventually turn black.
If the digitizer is cracked, sometimes it will screw up with touch inputs, but other times it will work flawlessly.
You only need to replace the one that is broken.
Like the tittle says, screen is still working, but the glass has a big tear and a crack with small splinters where the back button is
Would replacing the digitizer be enough?
Thanks
