so my phone fell from a table and hit the floor pretty hard. now the screen shows tear and displays colors incorrectly but the digitizer is fine this seems to be lcd issue only. I was thinking i could just buy the lcd replacement from ebay and have it replaced with the digitizer i have. is this a good idea? did someone (anyone) ever try this? need your opinion please.

I had to replace my entire screen after it fell. As for your question, unfortunately the screens are not interchangeable between variants. A D800 screen won't fit our vs980 or the ls980 variant. You have to get the specific part for the VS980 model.

Hey there.
I got "faulty" Diamond from a shop. It has one minor issue with screen. They told me that glass broke on the screen and now the screen has two small scratches.
So, where can I buy replacement display/screen for my Diamond and is it easy to change? I asked from a local repair and they told it would cost something like 250€/300$. I tought it's a little bit high prize so I was thinking if you guys could help me out.
on ebay there are diamond screens for sale
Not a very bad price also..

Thanks alot. That is really a decent prize.
Has anyone of you guys changed HTC Diamond screen? Is it a big operation?
Never done it to a diamond.
If I look @ the service manual I hate to say: yes, you'd have to take some time, there are a lot of steps.
But it's doable, just take your time, read the service manual first to know what to expect.
Then carefully take all the steps in the manual to disassemble the device.
replace the screen, and re-assemble according to the service manual.
I wish you good luck!
BTW You could also buy an extra digitiser (touchpad) for if the touchscreen is damaged.
maybe this will help you http://cnn.cn/shop/touch-diamond-digitizer-p-2128.html
Hi be very carefull with the screen , i just changed my lcd at a HTC service center, the screen is composed by 3 parts the digitizer (touch screen), lcd display, and the front cover ( the metal that you see around the screen), all this parts are changed in one piece, you cannot change only the touch screen or the lcd because, it can be done without damaging the lcd. Dont buy from ebay only the touch screen because you wil and up breaking your phone.
Ps the screen ( front cover, touch screen, lcd display) cost me 110 euro.
Here are some pictures of my old screen.
Thank you all, for your replies. I've ordered the parts and should get those by the start of next week. I think I'll manage to do it, didn't seem to be that hard.
Thanks again.

Were you sucessful changing the digitizer?
Did you changed only the digitizer or the lcd-screen with the digitizer, because lucian777 said thats only possible to change the complete part?
Google in Ebay. I saw an offer for 45 €. Regards

Thanks for your reply.
I allready have found many cheep offers for a digitizer.
But my question is whether it's possible to change only the digitizer and not the hole part consists of digitizer and lcd screen...???
I bought the Pure in November. Since then its been in a case 100% of the time, NO drops, NO water damage. Last week it developed the "spot" shown on the picture. It looks like a thumbprint, almost. Its unlocked, hard spl'ed, and was running a custom ROM but I reflashed to stock ROM in desperation. I am just stumped and more than a little ticked off-I mean I bought it unsubsidized and it crapped out quicker than my husbands $20.00 Nokia. The touchscreen does function normally though. I contacted HTC, who told me to contact AT&T. I'm guess I'm trying to figure out if its worth trying to replace the digitizer or just sell it to gazelle.com for the 50 bucks they offered. Thanks for any help you can offer.
Hello, I've had this problem on my diamond2, I took it to my operator and they program from replacing the front panel, the problem is that the digitizer glued to the screen. Good luck and I hope I have helped!
Thank you, that does help! I'll call AT&T now.
I had the same problem just sent it into ATT to get fixed.
Screen Problem
Unfortunately, I have seen it. I'm seeing it right now- take a look at the attachments.... So this is possibly not the display itself and may be the digitizer fusing somehow with the display, huh?/ Would anyone know where to get the take- apart for this phone??? Actually, what AT&T is calling the Pure is the HTC Warhawk ST6356- I paid cash for mine so I wouldn't have to commit, so sending or calling AT&T probably won't help me....

Search for newton rings, you may be able to fix it by applying duct tape and trying to separate the layers.
Otherwise you will find digitizer replacement instructions if you search here.
its same to meee
how to fix it
I had this problem before, after my phone had a 1 feet fall to the ground. Surprisingly, it slowly went away. After a few days, it's totally gone! Lucky me!

That's LCD internal bleeding, fixed a few with that issue.
LCD is simple to replace & the digitizer is a little harder as it is bonded to the front casing.
The LCD % digitizer are totally separate & are not bonded as some people suggest.
The Diamond 2 is one of the easiest HTC devices to dismantle which is fortunate as the quality of LCD & digitizers mean you need to dismantle them frequently.

this is definitely the digitiser problem. I have the same problem for almost one year, but i manneget to overcome it with the solution i have discribed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5496201&postcount=78
i do not exactly what it is and why does it happening. but you can order a new digitiser from ebay for 5-10 USD and install it by your self, of course if your have applied for waranty repair already and they have refused to you.

Mister b, did you say you fixed a few of the ATT HTC Pure with this issue?? It seems fairly straightforward to replace, all except for the lower portion of the case. I can take the screws out of the top and I see how it comes apart, but it is still somehow attached at the bottom and I have pulled as hard as I dare. This phone is my "daily driver" I can't destroy it in an attempt to fix it. Any idea where I can get a take-apart manual or vid for the Pure, or do you know how the bottom portion attaches?

I think on your model mentioned 2 lower screws are hidden under removable trim panel under buttons !
Youtube for a dismantling guide or look in wiki section.
Anyone know where to find the amoled screen replacement part. Phone dropped from table & hit the ground in the upper corner. Screen is shattered, touch still works though. Lcd intact but expected it to be stronger still. Replaced the screen on my Ace & was pretty easy to find at 30$. This one cant seem to find.

The front bezel comes of the screen quite easily the digitiser and lcd are fused together I just bought one of eBay added it to the front bezel and it works as a screen it's just the digitiser that doesn't seem to work I get no response when I tap it in any way not sure why it isn't working.

That's what I was thinking asked the seller to tell me if they tested it before shipping as their listing says they did. Just wondering if their was anything else I could try to check what the issue is, I have done the whole reseating the cable and zip ties under the digitiser connector as mentioned on a post here not sure it is though lost the link to it.
So, last week i broke my VS980 screen, ordered the part brand new from ebay and it arrived yesterday, today, after replacing it i noticed the touch is completely uselees, sometimes it registers a touch, sometimes it responds on its own, buttons and windows activate on their own so my question is, are there more than one verizon G2 models? maybe i ordered the wrong LCD? any idea?
Screen or Digitizer?

complete assembly, LCD with digitizer fused. Today i actually tested that same screen on another VS980 and i can confirm that the digitizer is ****ed, need to order a new one.
Just to let you know, i also btoke mine and the vs980 is diferrent, buy the vs980.
I bought one in aliexpress and worked, it had a little "white" spot, but for 25-30 dollars I can handle it.
