I was wondering where I could pick up a new screen for my Nexus One as I dropped it and the LCD seems to have cracked producing no imagines now.
Thank you!

I bought a att tilt used with a broken screen. Thing is the lcd screen looks fine as in i can see the hole screen(no broken pixels or anything). But it seems its cracked below the front glass as i cant feel the cracks. So basically I am asking if the only parts to the display are the lcd screen and the touch screen and the front glass? Cause since it doesn't seem the lcd screen is broke no reason to buy both. And wondering if the touch screen and front glass are two different pieces also.
Thanks for any help.
thanks for the help ...............
You only need the touch panel but you will need to solder 4 end of touch on screen. Also, use 4 scrooves method as it is quicker and faster to get to the screen.
the whole screen can be easily replaced for about $60 for a new screen. just need to disassemble the Tilt, there is a guide around here somewhere on how to do it.
Hey guys, I have just broken my diamond and I'm looking for a doner to repair mine.. My screen glass is cracked..
My screen works and the colours are not spreading..
My touch works and I can still use the device..
So I'm guessing there is glass between the digitizer and the actual display.
Would is be easier to repair it with parts from a doner phone or...
purchase this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FULL-LCD-Scre...K_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item3363b4604e
And replace the whole screen assembly. That includes the full front as you see in the eBay picture...
You're right. There's a glass between digitizer and display... But they are all glued... it's a difficult work to reassemble everything...
Yeah I thought so...
The reason I posted this was to see if anyone had an old broken bricked diamond I could useas a doner for the whole screen..

I tried the same but resulted in completely disaasebling the LCD. And was of no use later. I had to buy a new one. Better get a new on instead.
Yeah, I most likely will
I just asked here to see if I could get one a little cheaper, but then paying around £20-£25 for a brand new screen etc, which includes the screen, digitizer, glass etc...
What you see in the eBay pic is what I would be removing from a doner phone.
But also if I bought a new one from ebay that would then get rid of any scratches etc.
Although I've always had a protector on it from day one, it was bought second hand so there are some minute scratches
Hi
Dropped my Streak today and the glass shattered (LCD is undamaged). I just want to see if any expert here would know if this (http://cgi.ebay.ca/DELL-Streak-mini...956?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f0b03d81c) will work as a replacement. Are these lower quality than the original ones. I know it say OEM but this is ebay so...
Anyway, thanks for your time and expertise.
I replaced my screen the other week, cause the LCD broke and the glass didn't. Bought the same thing as that off eBay. Was easy to replace and works a treat. Not sure about with its the same quality. But they look identical :-D
My son dropped my n1 and I heard that nasty sound...
Started as a small crack in top corner with a white strip extending down the side of the screen. Other cracks are visible and the screen got progressively purple around the cracks and is now almost dark. I cannot feel any cracks and the touchscreen works fine.
I don't want to take it apart before ordering the parts since it is still usable. Any way to tell which part is cracked? I've read the digitizer is plastic?
Thanks in advance for any insights.
Mine cracked a while ago, 18 months probably. I've never had any problem with the screen. If touch still works, just ignore it.
The digitizer is the screen and touch electronics built into one part. If you have a crack, you'd need to replace the digitizer (which again, is the screen).
Keep in mind it would take hours to replace. You also run the risk of other things not working correctly once you put everything back together. I've replaced the digitizer in an original Droid. Everything went [relatively] well. But it took several hours, and certain [fancy] stickers were not able to be replaced. Meaning, it looked like it had been disassembled.
You broke the amoled underneath the digitizer I'm sure of it. I know because I did the same thing last year (13 months ago actually) and I could see a small crack in the amoled (digitizer was still intact) the screen went purple then blue the next day then went totally black within a week. Although it might have been a worse crack on mine.
BTW: the digitizer on the nexus one is not plastic it's gorilla glass.
touchscreen works fine? then its probably not the digitizer
the crack itself might be the digitizer rather than the display but the way youre describing it, the ink of the screen is running? well, tough luck..
it might just be better to buy a new phone (or a cheap used n1)

Actually you can crack the digitizer (spiderwebs and all) and it will still work like new the only thing is you will be looking around the cracks to see the picture.
The N1 does not have gorilla glass, but it does have a hardended glass (gorilla is just a brand name for a type of treated glass).
And if you are getting discoloring, it is definitely the AMOLED or SLCD screen (depending on your phone). The digitizer is the actual touchscreen part. It can still function with the cracks, but you can usually feel that they are there. Both are replaceable, although, it isn't the easiest thing to do. I know HTC will replace the AMOLED screen for around $110 and they offer the advanced exchange program with it. I would assume similar prices for the digitizer (although, the definitely isn't your problem, unless both are cracked).
I had to retire my D4 for a couple months because the touch screen stopped working and I needed a working business phone. I finally got around to ordering a new screen/digitizer and put that on (the old one wasn't broken, but for $10 I thought I would good it a shot). The new screen is still no improvement. Has anybody had the touch screen quit on them and then found a successful fix? Rotation is fine. Has to be hardware in my opinion since twrp won't respond to touch either.

Good question. I have a similar problem.
I dropped my Droid 4 and shattered the touch screen. I ordered and replaced the touch screen and it worked fine. Unfortunately my OCD kicked in and I decided to tear it apart and buff out minor scratches under the screen (stupid). After putting it back together, only the top half of the touch screen responds. I assume I ruined the digitizer once again by using a buffer on it, but just wanted to make sure it wouldn't be the LCD screen itself I may have ruined.
Any help would be great. Thanks!
