[Q] Genuine HTC HD2 (t-mobile UK) LCD SCREEN DISPLAY Replacment Part - HD2 Accessories

I have HTC HD2 bought from t-mobile UK (no t-mobile logo on phone but was on box)
LCD broken from inside (during cover opening) digitizer looks ok
I looking for LCD replacement and found this one on amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004CELO46/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=A1XMD4WZGTY73Z
Two questions:
1.Genuine HTC product?
2.Correct one for my model?

Or any other store?

Looks like that is solder type.
You first need to see if your device is solder 295 model type or socket connecter 300 type
Assembly of screen to Digitizer & refitting in general has to be spot on & without rough handling to have a good looking & functional result ...
Couple of links below that may help:

N00b question here
If i want change the whole screen with a preassembled unit (lcd+touch) do i still need to know if the touch panel need soldering? or i can choose whatever i want?
Thanks in advance

You can use whatever you want but the 300 type is a better assembly & the clip makes future repair options easier ...

Does this Display Lcd need to be changed? pic attached
@ Mister B could you tell ,if the lcd needs to be changed looking at the pic i'm attaching,ive a Tmous hd2 suddenly i see a brown patch inside my screen when ever any white screen appears,such as browser or start up stick together,any white background shows this brown patch around the white screen u can see in the picture i've attached,the display works fine,even digitizer is perfect,touch has no issues,no reboots or heating,but a huge brown patch on white sceen,please let me know what can be done.

Looks like a sort of oily watery stain !
Does the mark move at all or seem fixed to one position ?
Is the HD2 history known & is it original screen assembly.
Has device had any liquid incidents ?

1)No the brown patch don't move
2) yes its the original Assembly still no service,the void sticker still on
3) I've never come across any watery surface or liquid drop,but yes chances of moisture ,but no real water damage, the square water damage sticker inside the phone is complete white, but yes the water damage sticker on battery is pinkish white,not all white,but like i said probably moisture
so what's your take Mister B,is it a hardware problem or it needs lcd replacement? any tinkering required?

Hard call without seeing the device with my own eyes, I would assume it is LCD & perhaps liquid stain or lcd leakage at back of LCD & backlight on white screen highlights it.
You need to look closely and determine if stain mark appears to be on top of LCD or more internal & towards back of LCD.
Seen similar fault caused by battery swelling & over heating & the heat & extra pressure causing LCD to fail so worth inspecting battery to see if showing signs of swelling ...
Battery water tabs go pinkish just through handling them so the tab in device give best guide on fluid damage ...
From picture it looks to be towards back of LCD but images can be very misleading ...
Being a TMOUS unit you will have the 300type socket connector digi/lcd making dismantling simpler.
If you are not sure on your ability to dismantle & rebuild you are best to strip first & then buy parts & this will also allow better examination & correct part purchase ...
HD2 is not easiest device to strip so think twice & use up-most care or a repair specialist ...

@Mister B thanks much, so what can be done,if its a liquid stain or lcd leak on the back? replace lcd? or is there some easy way out?? and if replace lcd.will i have to buy digitizer as well or lcd is enough?

No easy way out.
Ideally need open device & then buy parts required & rebuild.
I would imagine it will be LCD & only require Digitizer should it become damaged during strip-down.
HD2 is not an easy device to work on without experience & many without experience damage more than they fix ...
If not confident or experienced yourself get some qoutes for LCD in your area ...

xdaIIi screen problem help!!!

guys I have problem with my phone's screen, the upper part of the screen during portrait mode is no longer responding to the right spot. but the rest its ok...anyhelp?do I have to change my LCD? I even had it hard reset which gives me a bigger problem, a Align Screen menu pops out and I could not align it....anyhelp????
looks like you have defective digitizer screen, try to take apart and reseat the LCD connector. maybe it'll help.
last resort, change the digitizer screen.
yes, I think that's the same problem that i've been facing since last year :-|
any I dea how could that be happens ?
or is there any way to do it without bricking the device ?
welll....
I am looking at the possibility that it needs to be stripped down and cleaned! dirt could be causing the issue around the edges by applying pressure to the digitizer!!
does anyone know of any toolkits you can get to take this thing apart I am not too confident with my kitchen knife and chisel....
Probably on this forum somewhere...
(edit : I just did a bit of pushing down and hooking a piece of card around the edges of the screen and it seems to be working fine however this can be temporary...)
There are guides in this forum to taking an Alpine to pieces completely: I had to change my screen recently and it can easily be done before the backup battery has run out of juice.
If the digitiser part is behaving erratically you cna just purchase a new digitiser for about £4.95 off ebay, rather than fork out around 30-40 for a new screen.
TOols you'll need are small screwdrivers and a small set of torx screwdrivers.. again a search will tell you what size (I have a pack of t5 6 and 7 and cant remember which it is - it's the same pack you buy for disassembling mobiles)

Can a broken screen be fixed?

HELP! A few days ago I sat on my PDA as it sat in my pocket and cracked the screen beyond repair. It's a spiderweb now that displays random colors. Is there any way to affordably replace the screen?
Thanks
screen repair.
these people can fix your screen: PocketPCTechs.com
if you found a new screen you can fix it your self ,its easy
just download the service manual and follow the steps for opening you device and change the screen with a new one
here is the service manual
http://rapidshare.com/files/50116541/htc_xda_ii-mda_ii_service_manual.pdf
but make sure you buy the correct screen there are 2 types A and B, B has a gold ribbon, A has a silver ribbon

Replacement screen
Thats way too much for a screen. I see them on ebay for half that price.
I have a Qtek 2020i and I had it all apart. The P/N 60H00022-03 is the screen I have in mine. It uses a little plug that connects it to the motherboard.
This is a link that explains in detail how to open the PDA: http://www.modaco.com/HTC-Alpine-dissassembly-t232579.html
BE CAREFULL taking off the antenna cover. The little tabs will break. I was able to do it, so you should be able to do it too. Good luck.
The manual in this post: http://rapidshare.com/files/50116541/htc_xda_ii-mda_ii_service_manual.pdf3 is for a different PDA. Be carefull, the antenna cover come off differently.

You mentioned the two types of screens, do you know the effects of the wrong one being used. Cos i think that might be a solution to the problem im having.

As best I can tell, the type "B" has a ribbon cable that is on the side. It has a little plug that plugs into the motherboard. This is the type I have in my Qtek 2020i. I believe the type "A" has a ribbon that is on the top and does not have a plug. I do not know how it attaches. They are not interchangeable.
This link will show you different screens: http://www.apexlaptops.co.uk/htclcd.htm
This is the screen I have.TD035STEB2 They must use their own part # .
Having just taken apart an XDA II in the (sadly vain) hope it's screen was the same as mine (I lucked out), I can tell you the following:-
The 'B' type screen (also known as a generation II screen I think) is the one you mentioned with the ribbon cable that has the small plastic plug on it, that plugs into a matching socket on the mainboard.
The 'A' type screen used in eary gen XDAIIi and XDAII (generation I screen) had a slightly different flexi circuit board at the back, the ribbon cable still extends out the side like the other screen, but it just ends in a row of shiny metal contacts. This plugs into a matching socket on the mainboard that has a flip-up latch to secure the cable once it's in postion. obviously there is no easy way to use a 'B' screen in an 'A' device and vice-versa as the actual device mainboards have different connectors and wiring layouts.
When replacing the screen it is easily possible to do it in under the 20 minutes of life you get out of the backup battery, so you shouldnt lose any data
(I have a B type screen on order from ebay atm to fix my PDA)
P.S while waiting for your replacement screen, use SOTI Pocket Controller to 'drive' your PDA from the PC (handy for finding out who the hell has texted you!) and Microsoft Voice Command will mean it can still be used for sending/receiving phone calls in 'blind' mode very easily.
Also, if searching on ebay for your replacement screen you can easily see in photographs the difference between the two ribbon connectors: all you need is one that matches the connector on your broken screen.
Hope this is of some help -
Joe Pinball, now owner of a surplus 'A' (plain ribbon, no plug) type screen if anyone wants to make me an offer?

Thanks for all the info. I thought the "A" screens ribbon cable extended from the top. Having never seen one, I learned something...
Thanks for the info. I ordered one from ebay which came from China and installed it and it works!

how much did it cost you? just bought my dad one for his xda2 from uk for £36 inc postage. seen as screen are the same for both.
Hey guys if the screen is showing a blue tinge on what was suppose to be a white colour. Would it be a problem with the newly installed LCD/ or would it have been incurred by the damage it had before hence replacing the screen.
Thanks,

you sure you removed the protective plastic when you installed it? or you have a cheapo screen protector?
i have noticed on my dads spanking new screen the colours are alot deeper than my oldie-second-hand-when-i-bought-it unit never owed a xda2/i from new so never seen a new screen LMAO
p.s. bought mine from ebay seller said the screen was scratched to hell, i have some of that cream that polishs out scratchs on screens so wasnie bothered, turned out it was only a screen protector it was perfect under it.
moral of the story is ALWAYS BUY A GOOD SCREEN PROTECTOR it will save you cash!

concave touch screen !

Hi
can anybody tell me how to resolve that problem ??
Unfortunately I had the habbit of keeping my phone in my jeans butt pocket, even when I switched to Diamond touch screened phone I kept doing that, but I realized that the screen got some slight concavity on it that even reflects as irregular pattern of colors seen only when screen switched off or when on but from a sharp viewing angle.
How to correct that ??? any ideas ???
Thanks
Replace the screen.
Change phone carrying habits.
It is a hardware issue, so not easy to fix. Beware that the screen is multi layered (touch screen) so it is possible that any physical shape alterations will seriously change the way it works. It happens that screens go weird when there's dust & debris between screen and the outside body of the phone...
Thanks for your reply
Is it worth it to replace the screen ?? or maybe its better off selling it for less cash then buy another one ?
I have noticed that there is a matrix of visible small dots 2 mm apart from each other, I guess this is the touch-sensing system.
Yeah, the touch-sensitive layer got squished. It should still work fine for now, but over time the touch sensitivity may get worse. The only way to fix it is to get it replaced. If it's still under warranty you should replace it that way, better than selling and buying a completely new Diamond. If not, you can replace it yourself with this: http://mobile.brando.com.hk/prod_detail.php?prod_id=03449&dept_id=088&cat_id=0695
Thanks fhsieh for the info and link.
I will replace it when it fails eventually, now I am releaved and I know that I've got a solution

LCD Touchscreen or not touchscreen

I've just replaced the LCD display on my kaiser and it works fine as a display, but the touch function doesn't work at all. The part numbers are the same (60H00091-00M) and so is the type number (TD028TTEB3).
I don't think I have damaged anything in assembly or disassembly - using instructions from this forum. The screen was new and the old one worked before being dinkled with a key in my pocket.
Is there anything I may have missed, easy to damage or misalign etc which I can check before hunting for a new screen or phone?
Thanks,
You need a digitizer too. Most ebay shops only sell a replacement lcd screens without that part (if you got it from there). So if yours didnt say it had a digitizer on it/with it, you won't have any touch input. The part number might match a good copy from China or whatever, but might not be an original screen.
Thanks for the reply.
This screen was brand new and did have the digitiser, but I'm guessing it was second or reject stock.
The ribbon cable connection from the digitiser to the screen had been re-soldered badly and one leg was shorted to the frame. I've resoldered this and the screen is now working properly again.

Phone possibly damaged during repair. Screen shows pixel noise.

Hello,
So I broke my screen on my HTC One and decided to repair, having done so before on previous phones I didn't think it would be a problem. Unfortunately upon installing the new screen all I got was a coloured and white pixel noise. Thinking it was a faulty screen I returned it to the supplier and sent off for a new one from a different seller. The new one has exactly the same issue however so now I think I have to conclude it is some sort of hardware issue, possibly caused by static during repair or something along those lines.
The bugger is that there were no issues with the repair itself, it was taken apart carefully and none of the cables damaged, wiggling or otherwise removing and replacing the ribbon cables that are responsible for the LCD has no effect on the noise pattern at all, it remains constant.
I can tell the ROM is running beneath the surface as it has the feature to turn on the flashlight with a long hold power press, and this still works. So the issue is purely with the processing of the image sent to the LCD.
I am unable to test the original LCD as the original cracks cause it to get too badly damaged to work during the original repair.
So I'm basically wondering if there is anything I can do to try and fix this, is there a part I can replace that deals with the LCD image or anything like that? I have a distinct feeling the phone is buggered, but it would be foolish not to ask the community here before sending it to the grave.
I have just discovered a damaged part on the circuit board just behind where the ribbon cable attaches to the mainboard. It is one of the very tiny little black squares, there is a row of 5 and one had a corner that looked damaged and came away when lightly scraped with a tool.
I think this must be the source of the problem, and I would guess means a new mainboard.
