So, I also have an HD2 with a broken screen (LCD and Digitiser) , which I'm looking to replace.
However in my search for a new LCD + Digitser combo, I've come across a number of ebay listings claiming to be a "Second generation" LCD screen.
Was there actually an updated screen on the HD2 like there was on the the original desire for instance, or is this a bit of gammy "marketecture"
I've looked around to any reference for an updated LCD on the HD2 but haven't been able to find anything to back the sellers claim up. If there was an update on the screen, what was the difference between them?
I guess as a follow on question, has anyone had any experience with a bad replacement LCD screen? Are they all the same? or are some of lower quality or do they more battery or aren't as bright as others?
I'm aware of the physical differences between the t-mobile version and the standard 8585, and know what sort I need to get (mine is a t-mo). But just wondering what your experience has been?
Thanks in advance.
its real
the international version of the HD2 was first shipped with a LCD unit that had many problems, later models were then fitted with a better one.
All TMOUS models have the newer, better screen
also heard that the early models shipped with another screen but i don't know about the tmous model.
i think it was the same with the hardware keys. on the phone of a friend of mine they fit much tighter than on my phone and he got his one about one year after the release.
i have got an old one and it's working well for almost 2 years when the hd2 was released here in germany.
and i think there are no differences in brightness or contrast.

hi i have a p3100 touch diamond for telus cdma, i dropped and broke the lcd, half of the screen still works the other half is black, and have found several replacements on ebay, but i have no idea as to which one to buy, does anyone who has expertise in this type of repair know if the att, sprint or verizon models lcd's could possibly repair mine? the lcd looks the same, but im unsure as if they would work, any help would be appreciated. thank you
talking about the lcd's only,
no digitizer as it still works fine.
hello,
i recently bought a used htc legend, and found that the screen does not respond in the right way(some parts not respond at all)
i went to htc distributor in Egypt, they told me it's not responsive and the replacement will cost me 1450 EGP (about $245) which is a lot.
i searched on ebay and found something called "LCD Touch Screen Digitizer For HTC G6 Legend" for just $38, and other thing called "LCD Replacement Screen For HTC LEGEND"
i just want to know is this the same thing that the distributor was going to change ? the touch screen or the LCD ? which is related to not being responsive ?
the problem i am facing is this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=977322
so is this the right thing to buy? or what, because the difference in price is huge.
so is this what i need :

or this one :

your phone is not under warranty?
Sent from my Legend using XDA Premium App
it's under warranty but in the uk, which means nothing to the distributor here in egypt, they'll fix it for a price.
You need the Digitiser.Please bare in mind that its not particularly easy to change as its stuck to the lcd and you have to use a hairdryer.Dust gets under, it doesnt fit quite right
Hello Guys,
I'm a little stuck, I had a glass of water that spilt over my phone and it's damaged the SLCD screen.
I'm after a new screen and will fit it myself as HTC will not fit a new one at a charge as it's not a part of thier policy. I've searched around for phone repair but don't trust sending my phone off.
I've searched around for screens and where i've come stuck is that I thought that the HD7 has a SLCD screen? I've only come across LCD screens. See link below of one I may purchase if correct? Edit well turns out I can't post links.
Can any correct me if I'm wrong? I don't want to buy a cheap screen and waste my money.
Hi,
The only HD7's on the market at this time that actually have an SLCD screen are those sold by AT&T and are listed as the "HD7S". All other HD7's have a standard LCD display.
If you bought yours from AT&T then you have an SLCD, if not then its just a standard LCD.
Hope that helps...

I wonder if the s screen would work on a hd7???? A brighter screen sure would be nice.
Sent from my HD7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
This is my question too. I hope so cause from what I understand, everything else about the 2 phones is the same.

if iam not mistaked the HD7 from bell also carries an SLCD and is essentially a unbranded HD7S. Bells website clearly promotes the phones SLCD on their site. Correct me if iam wrong please.
**Ive also compared my HD7 from bell to t-mobiles and there is a difference in the quality, more so in the viewing angles and color depth.**
READ the Following Carefully! thanks. I am LOCATED IN SINGAPORE

Hello, there have been two gaps on my first HTC One, so I ordered a replacement device which arrived yesterday.
The first thing I noticed is, that the new phone is made in China while the first was made in Taiwan. Not a big deal, i hope.
Then, after using the phone in low light conditions i noticed that the screen is much brighter than on my first phone. I have checked the panel_id, and both display are Samsung C2. Why is the screen from the china manufactured phone brighter on highest setting than on the taiwan manufactured phone?
Also, the softkeys on the taiwan phone are white, while on the china manufactured one are blueish...
Also, when tapping on the glass with the fingernails the taiwan and chinese phone sound different, as if the taiwan phone is a little bit more solid.
Can you explain these differences? And which phone should I keep now? There is also a slight gap on the newer one, and I have chosen to deal with these gaps now. But which phone should I keep, Taiwan or China?
Thanks for your help!

Can you please tell me why you think the Taiwan phone is superior to the Chinese phone?
Also, I did notice another thing: The digitizer lines on the Taiwan phone are clearly visible in direct sunlight, where those from the chinese phone are hard to see.
I can almost guarantee you that the 2 phones from different factories does not determine its difference in quality that you seem to perceive. There will be variances even in the same factory.
I can tell you from personal experience. My friend had the milky white colored buttons, and my mine had the blueish tint. Both of them were HT34s (made in Taiwan), but his screen was also brighter than mines. I went to get mine exchanged for the white tint because I'm pretty picky about my devices too, and the sales rep there let me go through 3 different ones before we found one without the blue tint. Also the screen of all of them were never as bright as my friend's. Keep in mind they were all new, sealed devices, all from Taiwan, and all produced on the same day (HT34P). So I'm guessing the phones manufactured in China and elsewhere will have the same variances.
You will never notice the tapping of the glass and the digitizer lines when you have only one phone in the end, so really I think you should weigh what matters to you more and return the other.
