Replacement LCD

Hi everyone,
I replaced my LCD screen and digitizer at the weekend and am now having a few problems. The battery is draining really quickly, in about 30mins. Could this be due to a non oem screen or something? (got mine off ebay)
I am also having a few issues with the power button, there was a small amount of tape in place but im unsure if this should go below the switch or above. To prevent the circuit board switch from shorting or something?
Any help appreciated.

how much did you paid for digitizer?

well I got an LCD with digitizer attached for $43

I'm needing the same, how difficult was it to put back together,
taking it apart isnt a problem but theres that many parts I'm not sure if I could put it back together correctly

Can you tell me how many different variants of the LCD are used in the Diamond? or there is just ONE LCD w/ digitizer..? And from where can I get them for a good price?

Well to be honest, I have only had problems since I changed mine and the phone is now unusable. Its quite easy to put back together, but it seems really easy to create shorts that cause problems and I think the quality of the LCD I bought is far below that of standard and is using lots of power.
Have ordered another screen from somewhere else and will try that but think I will get a leo next week as then im due an upgrade
Would still appreciate some help with my original questions?

I bought on ebay both/LCD+touch screen/. Price is fine 36US dollars. When you buy only on of this you have problem with right connection between LCD and touch screen. Picture have little contrast but not tragically. Battery draining is same. Touch screen is more sensitive than original.

Maybe is problem with correct connect gps antenna to connector on board.

To update this I bought a new screen with digitizer from a US company and replaced the board that connects to the microphone and now more Diamond is as good as new.
Screen is as original and excellent quality

Hi,
screen is original.
what happened was, i enabled win mobile autolock, and then i kinda had a fit. It was turning the screen on and off for about 1 second each time, i thought it would stop so i waited about 40 seconds, then hit the reset button.
when the phone reset it still had an "imprint" of the windows mobile lock screen on the screen, as if it had "burnt" all the white areas onto the screen.
I tryed to screenshot it, but it didnt show in a screenshot so i presumed the screen was wrecked.
I have left my phone without battery overnight and it SEEMS to have sorted itself out, but im not sure!
Thanks in advance

Thought this was fixed but the battery drainage is still huge. The phone is now constantly hot, so have stopped using it. I have dismantled the phone countless times now as I thought there may be a short circuit but with no fix.
When I posted originally the battery was on 85% after 4 hours but then the next time I turned the screen on it was on 1%.
Its annoying as I loved my Diamond but now I just feel angry when I see it on my desk. Using an old moto flip phone at the moment which I hate, untill some shops get the leo back in stock. Tempted by the n900 also, any thoughts?

Hi,
I will change my Diamond's screen. Did you buy it online? If so, would you please send a link of the LCD w/ Digitizer that you bought. Thanks in advance

I've ruined my device....is there anything that can be done?

Even worse, its a MDA Compact V.
Basically, I got the newton rings issue a few months ago and after reading threads on here, tried the duct tape trick which worked a treat....for about a month.
Then the issue came back of the screen not responding, so I continually used the tape to fix the screen. It got to the point where I had done it that many times, I was having to carry a roll of tape around with me, and the front of the front facia began to lift on the left hand side of the phone each time I did it.
It got to the point where I didnt need the tape anymore, I could just use my fingernail to pull the layers apart which would make the screen respond again.
However, recently I noticed a spec of dust under the screen. I put up with it for a while but last week I decided to try and get it out.
I stupidly lifted the layers apart and blew into the phone. This caused the touchscreen to behave very erratically and did not move the dust.
I was a bit tipsy at the time and actually lifted the whole of the front off the phone (thinking I could clean the screen and stick the front back down) but now the phone will not respond to touch no matter what I do.
I was thinking of trying to replace the front parts myself, but as mentioned its a Compact V not a D2, so the shape of the front of the handset is slightly different and I cannot seem to find anywhere that I can order the front facia.
I've got a lock on the phone, so I cant even flash it if I wanted to sell it as 'broken'
Can anyone think of ANYTHING that could help?
Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!

You can flash your phone if you just put the Rom on a storage card and update it from there, and new digitizers are just 4 dollars, so just put a new one in ( or I can do it for you if you pay for the costs) I've replaced my digitizer about 3 times now... and im pretty good at it XD

i really hate to say it. but i think its just time to buy a new phone. I know money may be an issue. i dont have the cash to fork out for new phones either. but if this happened to me. i would do my best to back everything up. then just buy a cheap phone untill i saved up . i have an htc pure right now saving up for an evo 4g. I just upgraded my contract so i will have to pay full price for the evo 4g around $500.00 . unless ya can limp this one along . but from what it sounds like is its about time to bury that one ...
devices messing up does suck, im sorry..
Good Luck

Thanks guys.
Is it possible to flash from the SD card when the device is locked?

Yes it is possible. When flashing from SD you don't have to use your screen in any way. Have a look in the ROM-Threads, u will find the way to flash and some great "how-to"s.

Thanks Mar'Cel. I notice we both have the same device. Do you know anywhere online where I would be able to order replacement parts?
Thanks again, Max.

I believe if you search on screen replacement threads they have stated where they were purchsed.
Also, you can use Pocket Controller Pro or My Mobiler to access your screen from your PC.

[Q] Is it possible to...

hey guys, I have a really quick Q for u. Is it possible to only replace the Digitizer/Glas on the One? They sell em for really cheap and because my screen still works fine after droping it (hell even the Digitizer still works!) I hoped that i can just replace it. The search doesn't show any result when I type in things like Display Digitizer etc. Did anyone attempted this? I saw some people replacing just the Glass on a Galaxy S4 on YouTube but there are only a few really poor videos on YouTube about the HTC One.

No, don't bother trying. The digitiser/glass is fused/bonded to the LCD and is very, very difficult to separate, so you'd just be wasting your time. Buy the whole LCD/digitiser assembly, and you'll be good

They're probably torn apart for good.. Try if you wanna, but it isn't recommended. There was an article on the xda portal about this a few weeks ago. You should read that to know about all the risks involved..

Dude just send it in for repair ... if you try and repair it it's going to cost you a fortune every time you attempt to repair a part you'll destroy 3 others.
T-mobile has a Refurb you can buy for $312 cash

it's not a matter of Faith it's just facts .. have you ever separated a digitizer from glass or an lcd ? it's an 11 on a scale of 10 in difficulty
if you tried it 100 times you would get maybe one working one.
and you have one chance to get it right .. good luck

I went to a cellphone repair center yesterday to get an iPhone's digitizer replaced, and I asked one of the guys who worked there if they fixed HTC One's too, and he said "no those phones are on our blacklist, you try to fix one thing you'll end up breaking something else." I think it's best to no try to open up this device. I know how you feel though, you really want to try to fix it on your own, but I can tell you from experience, some devices aren't meant to come apart, let alone put back together properly.

[Q] Digitizer

Hello,
I have cracked my Xperia SP digitizer and I'm currently searching for a replacement. I found many, although the thing is that there are some that have the logo costing about 20 to 30 EU and some without the logo costing under €10. Is there any difference between them? I really do not care about the logo, the only thing that concernes me is the quality, meaning sensitivity, accuracy and durability. Are the OEMs worth their money or is it the same quality on both? Can I post the links from the sites I found them, so you can check? Thanks a priori!

I changed once to nobname digitizer. After 5 minutes I bought used original one. Cheaper and much better quality. So I suggest to search for used one in good condition.
These with logo can be also not original sony digitizer.
Ive found original one in sony store (live in PL) It cost about 50eur.

did you buy the digitizer ? if yes can you please tell me where did you buy it ?
I accidently cut the digitizer's cable/link, i think i have to buy the whole thing for that

For who want to know, i ordered digitizer for 4,5$ from Aliexpress. I applied that and everything's working fine and acceptable for 4$ money. I only have some responsiveness a little [not so much] . Rarely the touch speed is slowing down for 1-2 minutes, but it comes back then. And the light sensor isn't working for me ( it's not problem for me)

I ordered a digitizer from Amazon, no issues whatsoever. But I think it was originally from China, because it was very cheap. Judging from my experience, a digitizer from eBay, Aliexpress might do the job just fine.

Thanks for replying i got an original but used digitizer in some mobile shop for about 8$ and it works pretty fine

I bought a new black digitizer, and all is working fine.
The white one's sensors wasnt worked but black's works fine.

I don't think either that it's a color-based problem. I think it's digitizers problem because some digitizers chip's are different.Maybe their sensors also different.
---------- Post added at 02:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 AM ----------
guys could you give me a link to a digitizer you bought which works on CM13-CM14 custom roms.
I bought 2 digitizers and 2 of them are only working on Jellybean. Not working on 4.1.2 + roms ...

Replacement Display's (2) not working

Hi
I broke my HTC One M8 screen. I ordered a front case with digitizer, etc.. twice. Both of them do not work.
I'm experienced with dissasembling phones. I cleaned everything, assembled twice, still doesn't work.
If I assemble the old screen, when I power on the device it lits white. The others won't lit, but the phone will boot (boot sounds,etc..)
Does anyone have any idea why? My HTC is Taiwan version, but I don't think this is an issue.

Try it with different Software
One with Android 4.4.4 and another one with Android 5 or Android 6, probably the oldest and the latest. and of course before you installing change firmware to Android 4.4.4 too.
Best Solution is to use Conversion from Graffixnyc

Did you buy from the same seller? because I had this hapenned to me once and had to return the item.
You Can ask the seller to test it before sending.These are usually aftermarket replacements and sometimes come with defects from factory.

I cleaned the contacts with alcohol. I have 2 screens OEM from china and 1 (supposed) original from HTC.
The thing that is strange is that my old one works and new ones don't. I know I have a taiwan version but I don't believe this is the cause. I have a battery arriving today, I saw here on xda a guy changed the battery and it worked.

I have a tmo HTC M8 that had a bad digitizer, LCD good, ordered new display/digitizer from my normal friendly supplier. Changed display and it just comes up as snow. put ATT mboard on same new display and it works great. Put tmo mboard on old ATT display that was working fine and it is just blank. So what's up with the tmo mboard, I have another tmo M8 that needs a new display so I think I will just move that mboard over to the ATT display and see what that does. Any other ideas???
