Hi,
I have bought a new touch screen to replace the one on my phone that was scratched. Bought it through eBay and I'm trying to get instructions on how to do the replacement.
The vendor seems to be clueless on how to do it.
Maybe someone has a link to the service manual?
Any ideas?
TIA

You may want to ask www.pocketpctechs.com. I scratched gray frame at the bottom of my screen pretty bad trying to take off a screen protector and am sending it to them so they can replace with a new one. Good luck.

somehow i cracked my touchscreen you can barely notice it but knowing its there bugs me. anyone know where i can buy just the digitizer everywhere i look its lcd+digitizer,
or is that not possible?
thanks
It usually comes as a unit can't buy just the digitizer as they are mounted together if I am not mistaken. That is how the Blackberry Torch was as well. They are not easy to replace.

I just picked up a JIG from Josh. Good stuff. I think you can also send him your device and he can replace it. Or you can purchase the digitizer from him and put it in your self I don't think the install is THAT bad. Just gotta be careful and pay attention.
Mine shattered today and I need to replace it. Just wondering if anyone has a suggestion on what site to use to get a new one and how easy/hard it is.
They are expensive I paid 50 for mine . Your best bet is ebay

I replaced mine, pretty easy. You can check out youtube for video tutorials, and yeah, the digitizer is pretty pricey. Just make sure you have some adhesive available and take your time.
I will be needing to replace mine. The part should arrive soon, this is what I ordered;
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005QXQXYI/ref=oh_o02_s00_i00_details
It comes with a new bezel attached and with power/volume buttons pre-assembled. Rather nifty if I do say so myself.

That's a very handy assembly. I spent probably 2 hours getting the tape in all the right places to put it together.
Digitizer
I had to repace one on the G2x I got off ebay awhile back. I would suggest that you check out the youtube video on disassembly. You have to be careful when you get to the part where you lift out the motherboard. You have to lift up the old digitizer cable connector as well as the lcd screen will be somewhat stuck to a gasket around the face. Once you get past that it should go fine. The best price for a digitizer is on ebay, just make sure you get the one with the frame. Good luck.
Eddie
Also make sure you buy one with adhesive on the frame cause mine didn't have it and its getting a hole bunch of dust specs

Send it to LG. Factory tech replacement with original part for around $70.00. If I had that option that is the route I would go.

Only problem is I rooted the phone. Not sure if they will still replace it for me.

It's very simple to return the phone to stock.

I just replaced my wife's digitizer. I got the white one from California on ebay. Simple if you are good with your hands. Take your time, I glued the new digitizer cause that's how lg did it. Works flawlessly.

I don't know their actual stance on this, but I don't think they should care/find out that it's rooted.
#1 if you are paying for their service, it's not a warranty issue.
#2 why would they even need to poke around in your phone to replace the screen?
Hello all,
The glass cover on my sidekick got broken accidentally. The LCD works fine.
I'm planning to get a replacement front panel glass.
I found the following link on ebay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tmobile-Sam...ultDomain_0&hash=item2c605f3c7e#ht_2045wt_905
Is this an original OEM part as described? After it's replaced will it work as good as the original?
Any other options other than the above ebay link?
Please help!
Regards,
sammydude
God only knows. It'll probably work though.
Sorry this is late, but the ribbin cable and glass seem to be just like the original. Let us know how it went.

How did you break it? I'm asking only because I know this is a pretty durable phone, I've already dropped it screen first on gravel, without a scratch to show of it.
This looks legit to me. Digitizer is the key word. I've replaced many of these on different phones. As long as it's a ditizer for the correct phone model number. Are you doing this yourself? There should be some good tutorials on disassembly on youtube.

@AFAinHD It was bizarre! My watch was on a chair. My wife threw my watch onto the bed saying "here it is. keep it ". The metal part of the watch fell on the mobile (the bevel part of the glass). You could imagine our shock after that!!

Not planning to do this myself. There's a good servicing person (freelancer) for all kinds of mobiles. Planning to give it to him.
Thank you all for your replies! Planning to go for it. Will let you all know how it went! Just hope I'm able to get it back to its original condition. Hmmm...

I don't think she could have hit it more perfectly.
Remember to hit the thanks button if I helped! It only takes a second!

I replaced mine a couple months ago but I had to replace the digitizer too. It cost ~$160 for a replacement but process was easy. It's been working great ever since. I don't know if it's possible to replace the glass without replacing the digitizer.

yep. I'm going to try just the glass and see. it's only $15 and there are plenty of u-tube vids to help. worst case I will upgrade. just can't decide between the SG4 or the HTC one.
I have a repair guide for this somewhere, I'll post when I find it.
