Hi guys
I've just bought a new white digitizer for my old Galaxy Ace that was cracked. The phone originally was black, now i bought all stuff white (home button, back cover and front glass).
I've changed everything without any kind of problems, but the digitizer won't recognize any kind of touch on it.
I've double checked the ribbon cable which seems to be perfectly connected (white mark aligned with mobo).
It's not the first time this happenz to me with the Galaxy Ace.
Old cracked digitizer still works, so it's not phone fault.
Any clue?
EDIT: The eBay seller wrote S5830 instead this digitizer was made for S5830i. So it's obv not working.

Well the problem is that, I wanted to fix my HTC HD2 on my own, the glass broke, a day or two ago, so I started to carefully get it out, and when I got it out i realized i broke the flat connection thingy to the touch, therfore I wanted to hear if this was the right thing to buy, I took out the glass, and the black'ish plastic right behind the glass, so is this the right thing to buy or not?

Hi!
I'll try to help in case you havn't found a solution yet
I recently had a similar problem. I also broke my digitizer (touch screen, which sits ontop of the actual LCD) and needed a repalcement.
If i understood your post correctly then you broke the flex cable (i think it was flex) which connected the digitizer to the actual LCD. If so, then yes, your link is correct, however, the digitizer cable is SOLDERED to the LCD end (at least for the Europe models, i heard there was a "clip in" version for US models), therefore, if you aren't an experienced solderer (which i wasn't) or you don't know anyone who is extreamly good at it i recommend you buy a full set (LCD + digitizer). Search eBay for "LCD Display Screen + Digitizer for HTC HD2 HD II 2 Leo"
I ordered the same one & installed it, however, be careful when (dis)assembling the phone, especially when installing the LCD connector to the motherboard, i got it wrong the 1st time which resulted in the colors not to display correctly.
Hope this helps
Hi, the other day I dropped my Galaxy S I9000 on the concrete and shattered the digitizer. The screen still works alright and the touch portion of the screen still works 100%, but there's a few big cracks in the screen.
Optus want to charge me $150+ (I don't have insurance on it plus it's "out of warranty" because I flashed 2.2 on it) while a repairman in Melbourne quoted $150 neat (but couldn't do it because their main tech was away). I've seen a few sellers on eBay selling these parts for $99 with a mini toolkit but I'm not sure if they are the Super AMOLED that is in the original phone or just an LCD screen that may or may not have the same resolution or quality
Has anyone replaced the screen on an I9000? From what I can gather, the screen and the digitizer are one so you can't buy a digitizer only. I've also seen that the connecting ribbon on the phone is glued into place and you must be very careful when removing it.
Any thoughts are welcome. I can still use the phone just fine, but I don't want to risk any further damage to the screen.

I had the same problem. Found this but haven't had it delivered or tried to fix it yet. You managed to find/fit one yet? I'm worried that it will be had to separate the screen and digitizer, will let you know how i get on.

Hello guys have a problem with my htc vivid's(have 2 of them)!
To start the story with i got a cracked vivid phone from ebay and thought of replacing the screen, i also got a digitizer from some hong-kong seller, the screen arrived and i looked up some videos on youtube and fixed the screen myself, everything seemed to have gone fine, but when i switched on the phone after replacement the bottom half of the screen would not work! only the top hald of the screen worked, i assumed it was a faulty digitizer and ordered another digitizer!
Meanwhile i got another vivid off ebay, this was also a damaged one ( the seller told the LCD was dimming but digitizer was working) so i thought of replacing its LCD and got it off, this phone also arrived so i had one phone with bad digitizer and other with bad LCD i ordered an LCD also so b4 it arrives i thought i would change the digitizer from the bad LCD phone to the bad digitizer phone so i will have one complete working phone!
When i started to open the bad LCD phone i realised it was a water damaged phone, but the digitizer was fine so i removed its digitizer carefully and put onto the bad digitizer phone and switched it on, but again the same problem! top half woking bottom half not working! so i thought ill change the motherboard of the bad digitizer phone with the bad LCD phone and after doing that the digitizer would not work at all!!
i dunno what to do now i dunno where im going wrong any sort of help or duggestions would be greatly appreciated, and if you guys are having hard time understanding any part of the story let me know will try to explain that part as clearly as possible, thanks in advance! hope i get ou of this problem soon
Are you sure that both motherboards were in working order.? I would suspect the motherboard you installed is faulty...is that motherboard the one which was on the waterdamaged phone? If it were me I would put the motherboard back in that at least had the screen half on and then troubleshoot from there....I've replaced a few screens but not enough to give a good resolution...I would proceed by process of elimination on components you know, for sure, are working before you install them...and its totally plausable that a new replacement part can be faulty...I'm not sure man, just my two cents worth...I would scour xda for others who have had screen issues..one post probably won't fix your particular issue but a few different ones might...ill look too and post link if I find something...

Title pretty much sums it up, anyway I purchased a new digitiser from amazon fitted it no problem turned it on and down the left hand side the screen about 2cm width is a black line can see the lcd is fine by little lines init.
I though i damaged the ribbon on the digitiser so bought a new one and its the same what could be the problem thanks?
