Broken? Screen fade to black on close of Keyboard

I found a G1 for sale on craigslist and I was curious to see if you think the problem it has is hardware or software related. Follows is the description...(caps was in the original post so please forgive me)
BECAUSE IT WILL BE WORKING FINE AND SOMETIMES WHEN YOU GO TO CLOSE THE PHONE QUICKLY THE SCREEN WILL FADE BLACK AND IT MUST BE TURNED OFF AND ON AGAIN TO GET THE SCREEN BACK ON
Does anyone think this is fixable?
They are asking $100 for it.
Thanks everyone!

Personally, I would stay away from it. I have routinely found deals for G1's on ebay for between $120 and $140 that have less wrong with them than some mystery screen problem. My spare G1 I got on ebay for $72 with free shipping and it just has a cracked screen. I am sure you can find a better deal if you are patient and look elsewhere other than CL. Good luck

The problem MAY be software related but im sure that most people who post such ad's are leaving out important details (i.e it started doing that after he dropped in his bathtub )

replacement case anyone?

Hi All
I'm about to sell my kaiser but my daughter dropped it outside recently and it damaged the casing, so does anyone know where to get a replacement outer case (& buttons) from?
I've seen kits on ebay for around £35 and although they have everything I need they include a keyboard which I don't!
Can anyone help??
Thanks in advance

Have a look at this link:
http://cnn.cn/shop/p4550-tytn-kaiser-c-277_447.html
I see the whole assembly on eBay for £35 including buttons & keyboard. if it has more parts than you need simply resell them on xda or feeBay & you'll recoup some of the initial costs too.

Thanks mister b but unfortunately only the keypad appears to be in stock so maybe I am looking at £35 on feebay!
Unless I can sell it as it is of course

I have a friend looking for a Kaiser.
Post or PM me photos showing current condition network lock status, price ect & I will pass it on to him.

yep ok will do, just so you know it is fully boxed with unused accessories that came in the box and is unlocked completely so it can be loaded with whatever rom you choose from here. At the moment it has a DUTTY rom on it, win 6.1 I think.
I'll take some photos as soon as I can!

Hi
Just sent you an email with piccys

I've just checked and the rom is exactly what it says on my sig. I thought I might have changed it since I put my sig up but I haven't!!

Broken screen, what do i do?

Thing is, somehow during the day I got a couple of cracks in the oled panel. At first the cracks didn't show much, but this didn't last. The cracks spreads out from the L on the HTC keyboard. And renders half the screen purple.
Now what do I do, first off I would love it if someone posted a link to the stock rom and a way to get the standard recovery dialogue. Then as I live in Norway how do I send it to htc. I have contacted them, but haven't gotten any answers yet.
At last i know I could easily search for these, but I am away from home, and would like to flash a stock Rom before my screen dies entirely

here is the original shipping tutorial with all the links you probably need http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614850
hope everything works out with htc

Thanks alot, i finally got home. Just in time. The entire screen is now purple, the lower right corner is now black and unreadable. damn. I think i will attempt to repair it myself, saw a couple of replacement lcds on the net. Will use the ifixit guide i think. But atleast it is backt to stock now, so if HTC can help me tomorrow it is all ready to ship.

no problem and if you look in the Nexus general section there have been a lot of people with cracked screen problems so you have a pretty good chance of htc helping you out as long as there is no evidence of you having dropped your phone.

[Q] How to quickly know whether your screen is defective?

Hello everyone,
I need some help. I live in Dubai and I'm going to buy a Z1 in the coming days. My problem is - I want to know how to tell straight away whether my phone is the one with a defective yellowish tint or a normal brilliant sony display. Im more or less a noob and reading through the threads here I haven't been able to ascertain this and instead have been left quite confused.
I was hoping one of the experts on here could help me come up with a quick way (e.g. turning it on and checking for a setting or firmware etc.) or even just turning it on and looking for something in particular. This is something I can quickly do in the retail outlet without waiting till I get home and then coming back and fighting with the store (as is commonplace in the middle east haha). I had the Z before and now I'm using a horrible horrible BB Z10 and the only thing stopping me from walking into a store and picking up the Z1 is this!
Thanks in advance.

Hello!
You can go to setting > about device > diagnostics > test device > scree and see if I is white or yellowish, if you ware not sure about it, go to the same place on the phone showed for testing and compare them.

Checked it one month ago in Sony Store at Dubai Mall (right ahead when You come from rail-station "Dubai Mall" entering the mall). Compared exhibit devices with my Z1: all the same brilliant screens ............... people were quite nice there, shouldn´t be a problem to check Your purchased device: if screen is pure white and sharp under the illumination at Dubai Mall Your device is okay. Maybe You can ask them to let You check against a Galaxy Note in the store opposite to Sony´s when You leave a full deposite ...............
Greetings ...............

Lolol lots of people who had white screens noticed yellow hue after fw change... IMHO all screen are the same, just need to adjust colors....

Motherboard (Daughter-board) Replacement

Hello.
I have to change the small motherboard, or like I see it also called daughter-board, because phone vibration stopped working and even changing the motor didn't work.
My board is with number 50H10209-02M-A (2012-12-21). But I found that there's also the same board with number 50H10209-32M-A (2012-12-21) which I can get a little cheaper. Do you know if there is any difference and if I can buy 50H10209-32M-A or I have to stick with 50H10209-02M-A?
I tried to find information in Internet but nothing...
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

get the same one or else this will happen, (http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/help/phone-rebooting-loop-replacement-t3442504#post68312039) do you have an unlocked model?

Oh noes....my volume down switch went bad so I just blindly ordered a daughter board from eBay
(no part numbers given on listing, lulling me into a "they are all the same" attitude)
What are the chances I got the wrong one and am no closer to getting it 100% working??
It arrived today but I am not going to attempt fitting it yet or comparing part numbers as I am still waiting on a new screen/digitizer to arrive from China/ HK
The fewer times I have it open the fewer chances of screwing it up
Not having a working volume down I suppose I can live with in a worst case scenario
(this phone is NOT for me and the new owner - My Mrs - is not going to go anywhere near recovery/fastboot/bootloader and is currently back to stock and having it jammed on full volume /may/ mean she will actually hear the phone ringing and increases the chances of her picking it up!)

Sure enough, the board I ordered - despite the image of the 50H10209-02M-A board the seller sent me a 50H10209-32M-A
He wants me to send it back to China before a refund is given (at my cost)
As I only paid £7 for the board I guess I'm stuck with it and out of pocket as postage would likely be more than that
The screen also arrived and works great - but the LED's under home and back button have been stuck down wrong - so the LED's don't light the buttons by the HTC logo... but put an annoying glaring white light into the screens corner :/
Seller asked if a partial refund would make me happy which I just replied yes to
A whole £1 refund was waiting for me when I got home...sigh
There's a lesson to be learned here but I'm 100% sure I will get bitten a few more times before I put principals before the wallet
Off to find ways of disabling the home and back LED before it drives me round the twist

Rob
