Good mornin' (At least for europeans^^)
Somebody knows whether to get the Touchscreen glass and it is possible to replace it? Have replaced it on many ios devices and others. So I think I have the needed skills. Reason is my NS falled to the floor as I wanted to put my keys in the pocket but there was the cable of my headphones too .. anyone has some links for a tutorial and for a Shop 2 buy the glass?
Greetings from Hamburg, germany
Sent from my oxygenized Nexus S with br41n.
im pretty sure the super amoled screens are attached to the glass, so to replace it you have to buy the screen/digitizer/glass as they come in one peice. not sure about the slcd versions though
I9023 is with super clear lcd
yep it is the SLCD version.. damn I already thaught so that I have to replace it all in one.. okay, thankz guys!
Mate new screen cost only 52$ about 35 Euro so it is cheap and replace is not so hard
yeah, but in germany the screens are at 50-100 euros, and in the end.. 50 euro is okay but 100€ is it not worth.
will look after good and low prices, thanks
same problem here, although i dont feel it loss sensitivity to touch or anything, just a huge crack on the middle of the screen.
someone knows where to buy a glass for nexus s in portugal?
thks in advance
look at this thread forum(dot)xda-developers(dot)com/showthread.php?t=1063148
and this youtube link
youtube(dot)com/watch?v=zpfE15Xw_os&context=C26c49ADOEgsToPDskLL-yEGmEnXU0KVUs2_Esgx
by the way I didn't have luck to get the SLCD touchscreen working, even that I tried three of them, nor this guy in youtube video.
If you get it working, please share.
Cheers,
Anyone found a solution for this problem yet?

Mine, the i9020a has the Super AMOLED screen.
Is the super clear better than amoled?

I had to repost this as the last thread got closed.
As I pointed out on the last thread, my Sensation XL has a broken screen. And, just wondering if someone can point me in the right direction as to where I can get a replacement part or someone to repair it for me.
Thanks

Well, this Sensation XL is a new phone. So finding a new screen for this it's quite Hard. tried to Google it or go to HTC Guarantee store to ask for it.

What? 2 broken glass in a row? Now that's weird...Btw, I searched on eBay and no luck. U have to wait until next year I guess... Cheers and Merry X-Mas
Thanks for replies everyone.
I did decide to leave it until the new year and have recently found one site claiming to offer the Digitzer for this phone, I'm just a little wary of whether the sites trustworthy though.
Here's the link -
parts4repair.com/htc-senstion-xl-touch-screen-with-digitizer/
I also watched a video on how to replace the digitizer on the older Sensation and it didn't look as straight forward as I have done in the past so may find someone to do it for me.

Thread moved. Would advise you to read forum rules and post in correct section.
Failure to comply with forum rules will result in an infraction and/or ban depending on severity of rule break.
Ive done some googling around, and it appears that breaking glass happens to alot more people. Seems HTC decided to NOT use gorilla glass on this otherwise magnificent phone..
Also i read tons of people get scratches on the screen rather fast, so using of screen protectors is advised.

Nope... HTC Sensation XL's screen is using Gorilla Glass, I can assure you that.
I've been using this device for almost 5-6 months WITHOUT any protectors and not a single scratch was given

scroll down to the part where it says: "what we didnt like"
It says here no gorilla glass, also i have found other topics on XDA saying people had scratches very easily.
Could it be possible some phones dont have gorilla glass then? So far my screen has been fine, and the XDA topic gives mixed responses too.. link

I don't know where you heard that, but i am certain it is not true. Not as a definite guide.
it may be that HTC are in the same situation as with the old Desire. Maybe some of them do, but some don't depending on what supply of gorilla glass is available at the time of manufacture.
I know mine does have a scratch or two, but they are tiny and not even noticable when turned on. so mine definitely doesn't have Gorilla glass in it.
... about the Gorilla Glass on the Sensation XL
If you check the Corning's website (sorry, can't post outside links yet), in the products section, for HTC, you'll see that the Sensation XL is not listed there...
Also, about 2 hours ago, I talked to a guy from HTC support center, and he confirmed that the Sensation XL's screen doesn't use Gorilla Glass.
This is really disappointing, given the fact that it was the most expensive smartphone made by HTC (up until the HTC One series).
Does anyone know, if a third party company might make a digitizer with a higher quality digitizer?

It would be good, I've been very careful with my phone and I've already noticed a few deep grooves in the screen.

Same here, it's really annoying when i think of all the old phones i had, which didn;t scratch at all, even when i was careless with them.

Even my Incredible S never had a scratch on it, HTC really let us down on this one mate.

You´re screen without any scratches doesnt mean it has gorilla. I havent used any protectors with my SXL and never had scratches.
From there it is really good. One time my dog pulled the chargers cord and my phone fell from table to floor.
Distance was some half a metre and i have plastic mat on floor. Still downpart of the phones glass shattered and back cover dont
stay in itse place too fit. ****ty build on this model.
Hey everyone,
At the moment I'm a very happy owner of a black HTC One S but as you might have guessed from the topic name, HTC One S had some serious problems about the coating they used on it, it goes off to easily.
I am not sure if its same or similar material but the new HTC One seems to have a similar casing and coating as HTC One S. Anyone heard anything about coating quality or possible coating problems? or htc did a better job on that one? I'm waiting to learn about this first to order my HTC One ^^
nope, but im glad to be getting rid of my pasticky samsung for a real cold metal coated phone
It's not the same as our One S. I think HTC learned not to use again the MAO process in their future phones..

Hello everyone,
I was about to buy the htc one, but they are out of stock atm.
so went home watch some reviews and stumble across this video
..

He mentions a lot of build quality problems.
Can people with the phone confirm this?
Screen problem with light coming from the edge? dust on screen because of that? Sounds like a big problem, hope its just his model.
Also input lags, is he exaggerating things ? or can it be fixed by a buildprop command?

I have seen 4 HTC Ones. 2 with gaps and 2 without. You can return them and just state that is has build defect. Some stores will let you exchange it once and some twice but they will not keep opening boxes until you find a perfect one. The best advice I can give you is to open it in the store with a sales assistant present so they can see that it has a defect. And before you hand over your money be sure to ask if you can return it if there's a defect once they say okay for returning with defects, then open it in front of them.
Death grip?
THanks for the advice i'll definitely do that !
i saw another video who mention the death grip like with the iphone.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ubr-Hzu894
can u guys confirm this?
No death grip here there are always going to be people who find faults. I mean if that's all you look for you are bound to find something. I suggest you chill and get the One open it up and just love it for what it is. You will not be disappointed.

it just get me that htc has such a poor quality control.. i'll be waiting for them to get things right before i jump on.. definitely joining the htc again this time around tho
Yes there are manufacture default. Gaps in casing, and screen that isnt glued on properly and doesnt flush with the casing.
Dust under the screen has been a problem with some phones by HTC for years.. was a common problem as far back as Nexus One. That HTC havent plugged the problem yet is beyond me. I think it will be less problematic with the one because alu case is sturdy and does not bend which caused screen sealing to crack on plastic.casings.

Hi, just wanted to know if anyone else has the same problem as me. About two weeks ago I bought the Black International version, but today I noticed that on one of the corners of the metal housing the colour has started to wear off, revealing the silver metal beneath. Is this a common problem? Maybe it's just the black version that has this problem?
Thank you
Thats really bad. What did you do? I just ordered the black version and i am a little shocked because Xiaomi build quality has always been great.
I didn't really do anything special (no drops or anything), I just used it normally. I have been in talks with the shop where I bought it from, and they said the same thing - that the build quality is usually great. They are going to ship me a new one though, so hopefully that one won't have the same problem.
