Hi All,
Can any one from Pune or near by Pune tell me any vendor for good screen guards for Gene. The one which came with my Gene was awsome and lasted for one year or so..after that i have tried some 3-4 new guards but they develop scraches too quickly. Does any one know any particular types to ask from shopkeepers.
Also i read some where that cold lamination should not be done. Will it harm the screen?
Apart from the screen guard if any one knows some other accessory or way then please help.
Thanks in anticipation.

Hmmmm....really started wondering whether i have asked a wrong question/wrond thread or broken some forum rule?? If that is the case i am sorry, i thought screen guard was an accessory.
Or seriously no one knows any thing in this regard?

Its extremely difficult to get any accessory of HTC products in India .
If Pune has a RT Outsourcing branch, please try there.
I hate that bout HTC
@Addicted : Thanks for replying man!! Its really drag that we dont get originals for HTC in India. I had a hard time finding one good pair of earphones, once when i lost my earlier ones. I thought of buying some bluetooth stereo headphones but now thanks to Karan i will have a 3.5 mm converter for the same .
So coming back to the topic, what most of you do?? use local ones? or any thing different? some special cover or something.

Can you tell us the cost of the same (well, all screen guard for touch screens are the same, as far as I know ). Also, from where did you buy it (I mean road side hawker, nokia authorized dealer, whatever).
I am asking this because I gifted my extra screen protector to someone (totally unworthy )
Thanks
i got a Chinese film for screen in my local market .it worth only 50 rs.
it got scratch but its too cheep u can change it every 10 days.
in rs 50 film u can use approx 80 times so i think u can change when u think it got scratched.
cut this film in middle by its width and cut the length u wnt to cover
it will be give u best fit with no bubbles .
You can use O2 mini Screen Guard for Gene, in my country it only USD 2,5.
Do we need any specific type?
In my 'City' no HTC accessories are available LOL.

Hey deepv84...in what name do you get this film...it seems to be good... If for 50 Rs u have got that complete roll shown in your pic.
Screen protectors for HTC phones are available in almost all shops in the sector-18 market Noida. Your best bet would be to go to a shop which advertises HTC phones outside them. They are sure to have most accessories. I have seen atleast 2 such shops in the Atta market Cost : approx Rs 100.

Dont use that film much buddy, it damages the touchscreen slowly. Trust me when i say that. i have seen a person's screen go berserk when he was removing it for applying a fresh one, and he was taking utmost care at that time. But somehow, the upper layer of his screen came off with it from many places and touch sensitivity gone.

Jeeez... Thanks Krazy... I almost went for this one i got a similar thing in Pune for 100 Rs... but now i wont apply that...
The problem with the screen guards in pune is that some how i am no able to find the originl HTC screen guard. It was quite sturdy...after that one i have changed some 4-5 local screen guards...
I will keep on finding them tough...
i m using default that come with box but it's nasty, it got lots scratch , in mumbai in Local train u get it for 10 RS but got for good one which cost u around 250-300 is does not get scratch itself and make gene more sexy

hi everyone so i managed to break my hd2s screen yeah i know it sucks.. right now im in the process of changing the digitizer for a new one i bought off of ebay.. i took the phone apart that was pretty simple but while doing so i removed many glue copper like stickers and also adhesive strips specially the one holding the digitizer and the lcd together.. my question is if anybody knows where i can buy the adhesive strips.. and most important the cooper like tape since it was covering the sides and the back part where the battery goes.. has anyone been successful at fixing their broken hd2 and is the copper-like tape important.. or can i just use some regular hot temperature resistant tape? well thanks in advance for the help
I know this doesn't really help you with your situation in any way but. I broke mine as well, and i just decided to let the insurance company handle it. I know it's expensive 130$ compared to the 50$ you could buy a new screen for. But they send you a brand new sealed in box phone, next day air shipping. I've only seen one video on how to replace the glass, and it was for the euro one, and it required, basically, completely disassembling the entire phone.
Sorry for the non-help. Just my .02c
i broke the one on my blackstone bought one off ebay pretty cheap but i couldn't put it together ,i ended up paying $50 get it installed the right way
hii people i need some help here i have bought a samsung galaxy s with a broken screen glass thinking it would be cheap and easy to replace just the glass, and i have bought the glass from ebay and can tear down the phone but i dont know what to do when i get to the screen how do i seperate it and is their a touch layer under their or what and if anyone could suggest any good tutorials or pictures to help me understand then that would be great because it is not as easy as it seems lol :/ and please dont suggest that i buy a new screen all together because i do not have enough money and i might aswell buy a new phone for the price of an AMOLED lol thnx and plz feel free to PM me
You're wrong from the very beginning
The hardest part to separate in the Galaxy S is the AMOLED screen and the gorilla glass
because they are strongly attached together. It would be very hard if not impossible to separate them without damaging the AMOLED screen
i had this problem but there is help .. i for one done it the hard way and cracked the glass more on the screen very hard to do .. then picked it away with a very small metal pick . look at one of my posts its on here and trust me can be done and then it gets a bit harder putting new glass back on as one the touch dont work right but dw that can be sorted first buy a really thin screen protector then lay that on then lay the new glass over that and touch works fine .. hope this helps but there is a high level of one skill and to a real big risk of fakin up ur screen when picking away at it ..
thnx thats gave me allot more confidence and hope in doing this and succeeding thnx u have inspired me to actually attempt it and i myt aswell because if it works then iv done it the cheep option and if i dont try il never know if the cheap option is possible and achieveable and could uu post a link of your thread please so i can read it much thnx

how did you crack the gorilla glass more what tool did you use and how plz reply need help thnx
I'm in your same situation, and the solution that daleford2k10 proposes sounds great.
But I have some questions to ask you:
1) Where did u get the glass replacement?
2) What about the touch buttons (menu and back)? Because as I have seen in some disassembling videos they are strong glued. It is possible to get out (or break) the glass above them?
3) Did u tried with a hair-dryer first?
Thanks for your help

iv not tried anything yet as the hair dryer is concerned i got my glass from ebay
www (dot) ebay (dot) co (dot) uk/itm/Front-Glass-Lens-LCD-and-touch-screen-not-included-Samsung-Galaxy-S-i9000-/170739151176?pt=UK_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item27c0d8b148#ht_2226wt_1270[/url]
but i dont know if you are a uk resident but you can get it from Hong Kong too and im taking it easy asin trying to get as much info as possible first to do this before i do it oh and i dont think the buttons will cause that much of a problem and anyway if they do break but the screen doesn't its still a win as the buttons would only cost abit and i have also seen some disassembly videos but none separating the glass if you have could you post a link thnx
Finally I got the glass from ebay (the same one as the guy of this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21224865&postcount=238), but delivered from Hong Kong.
I haven't been able to find any videos of this neither... But as both jondale and devonblue4u say, I think it would be just a question of patience and being careful.
Good luck! As I think you will receive your glass first than me (it's going to take around 15 days according to the seller), please post some photos or videos once u do it.
success?
i am about to buy a SGS 1 smashed, but any of you two guys succeed in replacing the glass ONLY? i know i have just bought a dead thread back lol but sorry need to know. thanks
I remember reading somewhere a long time ago that it was done successfully once, but the person who did it had access to the glue used for sticking the screen to the glass, so he wasn't normal by any means. My suggestion? Suck it up and get both the screen and the display. The glass was not meant to be replaceable on its own.
I'm in the process of replacing mine. You can get the glass separated from the amoled using lots of patience,a heat gun, and very thin plastic of some sort. I used a variety of things including a business card, credit card and a very thin steel flat mrasuring tool. The key is heat and moving slowly. Lots of videos on youtube. when you are done there will be lots of glue on the screen, but it comes off by carefully rubbing it. Also, as crazy as it sounds wd40 gets rid of the rest. Saw this on youtube and was skeptical, but tried it and it worked. Cleaned the amoled with rubbing alcohol afterwards. I'm currently using my S with just the amoled while I wait for the new glass too arrive. Also, with the new glass, you won't put glue on the amoled, but around the outsides - again, youtube is yourfriend.
Hello guys, I have a Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000 ...

I am also looking forward to replace the glass screen on my i9000 but I couldnt find any youtube video on how to do it. Can you give me a link? I would also like to know what kind of glue is needed. Thanks.
