How to replace the Digitizer/Touch Panel? any body?

I have looked everywhere but no luck! Can someone please give clear instruction how to replace the digitizer/touch panel?
I have only found instructions how to disassemble the diamond up to the LCD stage only! But after that it does not show how to take the LCD out of the housing to expose the Digitizer.
Hope someone knows how to do it.
Thanks.

The instructions you looked at, where they from the Service Manual or another source?

one from the service manual at XDA-WiKi page and other post from http://www.pdacenter.ru/razborka/razbor-htc-touch-diamond
but both goes up to the same stage and stop.

Yeh I've got the same service manual and it doesn't really go into any detail about how to replace the digitizer. Maybe there's another 'level' of the Service Manual for that. Only question is, where does one obtain it? Good luck replacing it - how come you're replacing it btw? Your touch screen not responding?

Digitizers (touch screen) usually are not being replaced at all. The LCD screen (with digitizer) is the one block. And it is being changed completely in service centers.
But: If you can find just digitizer, then you may cut off with office knife the digitizer from the lcd-screen itself (on borders only, do not cut your screen) and then place the new digitizer on the screen firmly (it will stick to it on borders).
I've done it with my treo 750 yesterday.

Thanks for your input. Digitizers for Diamond are available for sale separately.
just to make sure i got this right, if it is only fixed on LCD by sticking to it without any screws can i pry it out from the front side without disassembling the diamond?

Scratched screen
Ok, So I finnaly scratched the screen. Quite badly, must add !!
I was wondering the costs to replace the screen. Do I need a whole case / digitizer or lcd ?
Also what would the costs be roughly, as I am unable to contact my local repair shop....

digitizer arround 29 USD + shipping.
not sure if LCD is available yet.
if you scratched the screen you will only need to replace the digitizer which is the actual screen you press on.
the only thing is no clear instruction how to replace it!

Without disassembling - no, for sure.
And seeing the video - I would not suggest you to, it's quite hard, cuz it's all packed very tight.
I heard that there's glass in front of screen on diamond that sends the pressures to the real touch screen. But that maybe not true. I guess you'll have to disassemble the diamond to see what the touchscreen is on it.
Or you shoudl find the video, where you can clearly see if the touch diamond' screen have any protective glass..

Kortez,
thanks for your help, do you have link to the said video?
thanks

can't remember where I've seen. But it exists.

We need the instruction on the replacement step, not the part.

I've just replaced the digitizer now on my Diamond...having issues getting it back together though, will go into it in a minute.
Originally I ordered only a digitizer, then dismantled the phone and hit a brick wall when I tried getting the screen from the metal fascia, the adesive is really strong, I actually ended up cracking the screen under the digitizer and so ended up having to buy a screen with a digitizer for £10 more - to be honest I recommend this is what you do - if you order just a digitizer then you have to mess about soldering the cable onto the cable of the screen (as well as getting the broken digitizer off the screen and probably cracking it in the process)
Anyway, my new one came today, managed to put it onto the fascia fine and have started putting the thing back together, but I cant connect the 2 cables to the mainboard part! cos for a start theyre underneath and not long at all! anyone have any ideas?

I thought the digitizer cable can be just slot into the connector type, no? Did your digitizer come with soft ply tools? which to help on plying out the screen and digitizer i heard. I'm gathering info before placing my purchase on the digitizer... Coz its badly scratches, felt and kicked!

No unfortunately not - you have to solder it on theres some contacts for it.
I managed to get all mine back together you just have to take your time and be really careful - it works perfectly now. I'm really chuffed as its a really good spare to have
If I was you i'd order a screan and a digiziser together cause then it will just be a case of pulling the screen off the adesive on the fascia (it's stuck really well you might even crack your broken one like I did) and then stick the replacement on and reassemble!

Hi, could anyone of you make some pictures or a small video about how to get the display out of the body, or where exactly i need to pull the display out.
i have already dismantled my diamond, but still didnt get the display and digitizer out. When i pulled the display i think i broke it somehow, because now my display shows me only stripes...
anyway, my ordered display still didnt arrive....
if you could make a vid or some pictures, it would be very helpful.

how was the soldering part? difficult? as i heard it might melt the plastic cable, no?
If i do cracked the existing digitizer, no harm i see since its already borken though.

Well, i managed to get the lcd and tocuh sceen apart, and now am stuck with the soldering part either.
the sceen has to be pushed out from the inside....the glue they used is pretty strong. and the display breaks pretty fast....
isnt there a way to connect the lcd and ts without soldering?

Replacement screen?

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..

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.

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

Damaged Digitizer or LCD Screen? Help please :(

Hi,
Last night I knocked a small table and my girlfriends phone and a remote for the TV fell off.
We noticed that her phone now has a ring of black dots on the screen, mostly visible with a white background (E.G websites) but also from the home screen and the like.
We think she's cancelled her phone insurance, as she's never had a payment out to the company.
Can anyone tell me if its a Digitizer (What is one of these? Is it just the touch screen sensitive part of the phone?) Or the actual LCD Screen itself?
If you click on the photo it will load a larger image
Thanks for any assistance, kinda annoyed about this and wondering if I can repair myself with the parts on ebay. Or does anyone know how much HTC Charge to repair similar? Either in $USD, £GBP or €Eur, I can convert and get a ball park figure.

Hi
First of all is the phone still in warranty? If so take it back to an HTC dealer they should repair it for you for free. TD2 screens are not very good and it's a common fault. ( i had to have mine repaired after just only 3 weeks! )
The TD2 screen is made out of 2 parts, The touch screen or the 'digitizer' as you call it and a normal LCD screen underneath. You need to establish which has gone faulty.
If the touch screen still operates normally i.e the screen does not lock up or freeze and allows you to navigate normally then its the lcd screen below. If the touch screen is faulty one good way of checking is to put a piece of tape over the damaged area and try to lift it up a little to see if the marks / dots disappear and functionality can temporarily be restored.
Its hard to tell from your picture which it is..... sorry
I'm not sure how much a replacement by a dealer would cost, but i'm sure you can replace either yourself. ebay is a good place to look
Hope this helps.

I've had a reply from HTC UK who said the following:
That looks like there are a bunch of very small cracks in the screen. the black stuff is likely the Liquid Crystal from inside the display that has leaked out. If the dots get larger then it would definitely seem that the screen has got some cracks in it.
if this is the case, the standard charge for replacing the LCD is around £180 as sadly it is all one complete unit on the diamond 2, so it is not just the LCD underneath that needs to be replaced, but the whole screen assembly including the touchscreen layer and the actual LCD.
I hope this information helps you to make up your mind.
best regards,
Pete W

Hi mate,
had the same problem...
the item you psetd from ebay is not the one you need to change.
you need a digitizer, not an lcd screen.
i got one from ebay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&item=290376721935&view=all&tid=393718237019), it includes both the lcd and the digitizer, you can check ebay to find other auctions offering the digitizer only.
you can change the digitizer on your own if you don't mind loosing the waranty of your phone.
cheers

Hi,
I had already found this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Touch-Screen-...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL?hash=item5882e7ef74
Will buy in a bit, funds are a bit short today.
The Touch Screen's functionality hasn't changed at all though, no sticking buttons or anything. So I suspect that its the LCD Screen thats damaged but will follow you're advise as you're going to have more experiance than me (and its the cheaper part to begin with!)

Scrap the above post.. my g/f has just told me that the dots on her phone are bigger/worse. Looks like its the LCD Screen afterall

i still believe it is not the LCD.
the digitizer is actually sitted on a glass, and the LCD is below that. it is very difficult to harm the LCD. i also though it was the LCD (at least i wasn't sure which was broken) so i ordered both of them.
if you disasseble the phone you will be sure if it is the LCD or not.
i vote for the digitizer
good luck, if you need any help, i'll be pleased to help you..

Just to update, A few days after I posted and got helpful advice on here.. she called me up to say the dots have disappeared, and they have still gone now a few days after.
She said she put it in the office where she works, under a printer paper tray, and the office was warm. Something has (maybe only temporarily) fixed it.

I´m having the same exact problem my nephew dropped my phone, i already dissemble it because i was not sure of the lcd type, but when i looked at the digitizer i didn´t see any dots, so i´m not sure what to repair, TS or Digitizer, i allready tried with the tape to pull the digitizer, when it was apart i couldn´t see anything on the lcd no marks at all, opinions please.
cheers

Well F**K me! just bought a second hand diamond 2 to replace my xperia...
...seemed to work great checking it out... went home with the phone in my pocket... and as soon as I turn it on the touch screen doesn't work
dissected the whole phone only to discover the digitizer is glued to the bezel!
I ordered this from Ebay, will update if I got it working with the brand new housing + digitizer: http://cgi.ebay.it/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=380166349182&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

If you can make some photos of the digitizer and the lcd dissasembled maybe, but It seems unlikely to break the lcd when you didn't completely trashed your digitizer.

Also the LCD didn´t had any marks at all, but i´m going to buy the TS+LCD and replaced by parts first the lcd because it´s a lot easier to replace then if the problem persists the TS.
I will post the result later when i get the parts to replace.

Can anyone confirm the above link as being both Lcd and Digitizer? I'm sure it doesn't mention it in the listing but the picture looks like it's showing both connectors.

Most likely only the LCD that's my conclusion if you look at the sellers store.
But to be sure e-mail the seller and ask.
http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/Elect...QQ_sidZ195653022?_nkw=diamond+2&submit=Search

Soooooo, as I've already posted here, My digitizer was busted on the phone I just bought... what I didn't tell was that I ordered a digitizer, then checked if I could remove it easily...came to the conclusion that I couldn't... and ordered a digitizer+housing so I could easily fit it on.
the mail brought me the digitizer today, and while knowing a better solution was on it's way I couldn't resist and try if I could make it work.
Turns out it super easy to seperate the digitizer from the bezel using a hairdryer (softening the glue) and a knife:
Take your phone apart, just the 4 screws, click the plastic center off it. Remove the digitizer cable, the touchscreen cable and the speaker cable.
now you are able to remove the green plate which holds all chips and stuff.
underneath that is the screen, lift it up gently going under it from the gap the removal of volume buttons leaves, put it away safely.
Now remove the speaker, the buttons under the zoom bar, and the power button(don't forget the the power button, and rubbery thingy that falls out of the bottom, the hole needs to be at the bottom when putting it back in).
your phone should be completely empty by now... just the front and the digitize glued together.
make the front of the phone reaaaaaaaaaallllly hot, put the knive between the metal and the digitizer (I started at the part where the zoombar is) and gently push it between the two parts... (from the inside of the phone to the oudside). Now just keep the whole thing above the dryer to keep it warm and slowly slice your way around the phone (no secret wires are there that you can cut through).
I used some random glue I had lying around to glue the front back to the new digitizer... perfect!
so the screen is like new now
ps bought this digitizer: http://cgi.ebay.nl/Touch-Screen-Dig...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item45eed6effc

Thanks for that jodeltje.
It sounds exactly the same as when i replaced the digitizer on an Omnia. Really not as hard as one might imagine. Taking your time and being careful are the most important things.

Hey guys,
I came into same boat last night.
Dropped my T-Mobile MDA Compact V from 2.5ft table, Backwards (Not towards LCD) and now it has black dots on screen. I guess the LCD has pressed backwards by chip sets.
Here is a screenshot.
I think its LCD damaged but I don't have cash to replace nor device warranty.
Do you think the problem solves eventually? Coz once I had dropped sony mobile and it too had same issue but solved after many days.
Hopefully it solves.
BTW; does LCD affixed to Digitizer? by seeing service manual, it doesn't look like it is. And I afraid to get cheap hongkong LCD screens for about 30$ since they won't be true quality display. i.e blueish.
Thanks...
Best Regards

hello CRACING,
sorry about what happened to you...
from the picture i can say that you have a problem with the digitizer...
your LCD is ok.
i tend to have this problem over and over again the last 1,5 years... i replace the digitizer (or the glass on which the digitizer is attached to) every 3-4 months..
yes the ones you get from ebay are not that good quiality, but well it keeps the phone working...
if you need assistance on replacing the digitizer, i can help you, by providing pictures and istructions...
cheers

[Q] Help with replacing glass!

Hi
I dropped my phone causing the top glass part to broke. I ordered a replacement from ebay and now I need help fixing it.
Is there any video out there where it is shown how to change just the glass part?
I apparently can no post you a link as a new member so..
Search youtube for: LG P970 touch display screen replacement - Part Repair.
this is the kind of video that I think I need. Only with P880 being repaired, of course.
Thanks for your help!

Yeah I saw that one. Do I really need to do all that?
In that video they take everything off even the smallest thigs.
When they replace other phones glasses they dont dissamble nearly as much stuff.
But if that's what I'm going to have to do..

I'm affraid that needs to be like that. There is no way to connect it back in other way, in a safe mode of course.

I don't think you have to take apart the whole thing. Do it until the "frame" is seperated from the "front" and replace the "front", leaving the PCBs in the "frame".

[Q] Guide: Xperia V disassembly, how to repair broken display?

Hi,
the touch screen of my Xperia V is broken and I'd like to replace it myself. It's not the first time for me that I repair a mobile device myself, but without a disassembly guide, it is difficult for me to identify the parts that are fixed by glue. I don't want to break anything that is still working.
I already found a russian video on YouTube, but it seems to me that the display is not taken apart from the other parts of the device.
Has anyone here done it before?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I've managed to remove the display. Mainly because it was really damaged ... heating the display and "bending" with a small tool.
It's really hard as the glue is quite strong. As my replacement screen is "on it's way" I'm not able to finalize the work.
I'm kind of stuck in the part when removing the "middle, plastic" part...

display is connected to body with really strong glue. Remember that it is impossible to remove old display without breaking it. Second thing is that with new display the phone most likely will not be waterproof

Hi! I broke mine last night. How did your repair go when the part arrived? I also could only find the russian video without the screen being removed
How hot did you have to make the screen? I was thinking of using an iron with a cloth around it.

Hi Folks, I'm curious to hear how others are going - I managed to break my screen this last week, Hoping to replace it but so far taking out that glass seems to be a tricky thing - any suggestions? How did the iron and cloth go?

There's no way.... You need to buy a new housing with the LCD and touchscreen built in, and then move all your bits over. That's why the russian video of the guy removing everything doesn't remove the screen.

I just ordered this: http://www.parts4repair.com/complete-screen-assembly-for-sony-xperia-v-lt25i/ I will see how that goes. I got tired of using my old SG1 so it's time to fix the V...

Good luck. Careful with the tiny, white antennae cable running from the main board to the bottom. I twisted mine a little bit too much and the connector popped off. I had to go get a new one with much difficulty.

I replaced the screen - had it working for two days and dropped it again - cracked screen, doesn't even light up.
I now have another replacement screen and a better case - at least now I'm getting quicker at taking the phone apart....

Hi this wont work, I went through the exact same issue, and its impossible to attach the new screen properly. your best bet is to try and find a second hand screen via ebay. it has to have the "housing part with it. otherwise you are wasting your time. it cost me so much to fix mine as I ordered two screens in the end I could have bought a new phone on special....
Try Ebay, and make sure you see the one with the screen and front housing on, I am unable to port the correct link on here as I haven't made 10 posts yet.
Search for the following on ebay : Genuine Sony Ericsson Xperia V LT25i front+digitizer touch screen+LCD display
This should let you find the correct screen
Look at the picture you will see the side housing for the front is also installed, the one you have ordered is the incorrect one as its only the LCD and the Digitzer, without the front housing that it gets "glued" onto. You can see the main difference where the earpiece is its shown as black, hence the mesh is there. that would be the correct one to order. Unless you have the means of getting yours glued back on the same way as the factory, I see you will struggle to get it done otherwise.
