So my Screen broke and I bought a new one so I could replace it, the touch screen/digitizer didn't break though... at first the colors just started washing and fading untill the screen ended up completely dark, I could still use the touch screen and feel when I would unlock it, after a day the phone would not give me any feed back by vibrating or turning the orange light while charging, so I dismantled it using some tips from these videos:

After I put everything back together the phone is giving me feedback again and I can notice its charging because of the orange light, but the screen won't turn on. Does any one know if I might need to do something on the software side? like needing to re install anything? or do you think I just got a bad screen?
Update: I just took it apart again and reconnected the ribbons, its back together and the screen still won't turn on.
You have the AMOLED screen and not the LCD?
Did you compare the #'s on the old and new to see you got the right part?
Cables are the same, they look the same, part # and stickers are different...
What are the part numbers on your new and old screen? I just went through the same thing, but I'm fairly sure I got the wrong screen replacement. Will have to look more into it later tonight.
My screen wont turn on at all. I was so excited to get my N1 back in action as well.
ok so my phone's screen is so cracked it fell off the second floor with no case to protect and the screen is broken like hell and the display is black (no display). However, I can see the soft keys still light and the phone still functions as I tried tapping over the screen and music played and camera captured so I guess every thing is working fine
So my question is if I buy a new screen and replaced it (from Ebay) will it also fix the black display and get my original display back ?
Hi, good day
do you still have your sensation xl? The broken screen one?

yeah, if you connect the flex very well but the screen didn't work, you should do replacement.
Hello.
I got a phone from a warranty, where was motherboard changed. After that i was still unable to use phone because my screen didn't and touch work. So i decided to buy a new LCD with touch from eBay. I changed the screen, pressed lock button and everything was fine, touch and screen. I got used to phone like 1 hour but after that phone screen sank and went blackscreen,
My software is updated.
Any tips to get my screen working?
Sorry for bad english. :victory:
I replaced the cracked screen of XPERIA Z. but I'm unable to turn on my phone after the new screen pluged in to motherboard. (new screen is fully working) But I can turn on my phone after the old cracked screen pluged in again. So I have to turn on my phone with old cracked screen. After that have to remove it & reconnect the new screen. This is the only method that I can use this phone. What's the problem of new screen?
How can power supply depends on the screen to screen?
Please help me..
