Hi,
I have an O2 XDA orbit II that works perfectly even after 2 years. I have flashed the 6.5 ROM from XDA-Developers, and the phone's a treat to use.
But, the only downside is that there are a lot of scratches on the screen, that are visible, due to my carelessness.
Is there a way to replace this screen with a new one?
And, if so, where can I get the exact replacement part from?
Thanks for all, for help.
DG
Try ebay i got a full housing and screen for £10 "seems Genuine enough" just do a search for xda orbit 2 screen.There is guides on here for disassembly and screen replacement.
Hi, I have now ordered one from EBAY.
But, it would help if you could provide me the links to the above mentioned guides for Disassembling..
Regards

As topic says, I have XDA II with a screen that shows no visible damage, but is unresponsive for sale. Comes with nice Javaskin case, stylus, docking cradle and some programs.
Took the dive and bought an Imate Jam, so its sitting here looking for a new owner. Looking for bids around the 120 quid mark. Any questions feel free to email me.
Cheers

if it is just the touch screen thats gone
Dear Friends,
Just like you I am also a PDA freak. I have had these handheld marvels since several years and am deeply into them.
I have owned an O2 XDA mini for over 6 months now. I found a shocking defect in the covers provided by O2. The cover has a strong magnet which tends to move the direction of the screen when I put or remove the device from its cover.
My friend who is using the same mobile has had the same problem. But sadly his screen has become inverted permanently now. We have tried all troubleshootings and have written several mails seeking help and reporting the quality issue to O2 and also its manufacturer HTC. But there has been no response from either of the parties.
What I can suggest immediately for everyone is to STOP USING THE MAGNETIC COVERS FOR THE MOBILES to avoid the problems we have faced or you shall have to burden your pockets once again with at least one third the price of your phone (the cost of the screen and its labor charge as the service centre has refused to repair it under warranty). I shall update you about any replies I get.
Regards

I have a brand new HTC Touch Pro for sale. The box was opened but none of the software, accessories or the phone has been touched. I just got a Fuze through my company and this Touch Pro was shipped to me Brand new as a replacement for one that was defective. I have been using a touch pro since they came out several months ago. I do not need two and I want to stick with the Fuze for the 3G here in the States. $450 US takes it! This is a great deal for an unlocked HTC unbranded Touch Pro. This is the HTC model with the front facing VGA camera. Thanks Ryan
ill take it

where do you live?
do you accept local pickup?
I live in St Louis, Missouri USA. I can ship tomorrow morning via FedEx.
has it been sold yet?
no, the phone is still for sale.
How about some pics
I just took these. Nothing has been opened except the box to make sure everything was there. The plastic on the screen has not been removed and the phone has not been taken out of the little tray it sits in. This is as good as it gets... No stories, I just do not need it now. Check my eBay ratings...my eBay ID is 02ws6m6. Thanks Ryan
How much are you selling it for?
EDIT: Missed the price earlier, sorry
device casing looks scratched...

scratch??? I am a rediculously picky engineer and there is NOT single a scratch on this phone. The black anodized screen case is flawless.

It's dust on the plastic screen protector.
If anyone seriously wants the phone, I will try to take any detailed pics they want. I really don't know what else to say other than, the phone is new...
Would you take a HTC Kasier plus cash for the Touch Pro? I can also throw in a HTC Hermes too . Let me know.
No thanks, need cash...spent too much $$$ on my kids for Christmas. I did own both the hermes and the kaiser. Great Phones!
Reduced...$400 shipped and I will include a 3-pack of HTC Touch Pro screen protectors that I bought (new and unopened).
...Sold...
Item reported as sold. Closing thread.
If the PM needs the thread reopened, feel free to PM me.
I'm hoping someone can help, I've been without my touch pro for about a month now after I sat on it whilst drunk and smashed the LCD!!!
I've been trying to find someone who sells replacement LCD's and not been able to find anyone. Does anyone know where I can get one?
I have managed to find a Diamond one quite cheaply on ebay, but does anyone know if it compatible with the touch pro? I've looked at my friends diamond and from the outside looks the same. It also has the same dimensions and specs.
I hope someone will be able to help, I'm having to use a crap SE T280i which can't even go on the net!!

It might be possible to get it warranty repaired by HTC, or at least repaired by them (you may have to pay for it if the warranty doesn't cover it).
What country are you in, as that will make a difference to shipping and availability.
Hello,
I have a similar query too. Do diamond lcd ( Not digitizer ) fit to at&t fuze?
Just because, diamond lcd screen are cheaper then fuze.
As far as product image, both looks same but need someone to confirm if it works for fuze also. Please help to save few $$$.
Thanks...
Best Regards
yees, mine too... did a bad thing to the screen so it has 3 blue spots due to extreeme presure to the screen.
found lot of stuff in eBay but I don't recommend it because I once ordered a battery replacement (made in HongKong) for my TouchPro and it wont perfectly fit. So it kind of shocks me to shop in eBay...
mine is Asian Touch Pro (T7272)

I brought at&t digitizer from hongkong and its perfect. I don't think all the items from hongkong are bad. And most of things I brought from hongkong ( ebay ) were perfect, especially car products.
unfortunately I broked lcd, digitizer and flex cable while I was installing new digitizer. So now I have to buy new flex cable and lcd ( without digitizer ) which costs nearly 70$.
Already brought flex cable but suck on buying lcd. Just waiting to confirm.
Edit; Just now got reply from a diamond lcd screen seller. He said, we have asked the manufacture, and they told us it can not be used. So this should be clear but I already brought fuze lcd screen too as I don't wanna suck.
Best Regards
A few days ago I dropped my Desire S on the floor so now I need to replace the glass. The phone is still working perfectly so I'm not going to pay the full price at HTC (besides that, I got the phone for free in a contest).
So ofcourse I have done some research, and found out that there isn't a lot of information about the Desire S yet. I did stumble upon this (detailed) guide:
youtube.com/watch?v=FaawEVWZvG4
Although I found this guide, my first question is if anyone knows another/even better guide then this one?
My second question is about the actual Digitizer. I found some sellers on ebay, but I find it extremely difficult to determine whether they are good sellers. Does anyone have any experience with sellers on ebay? Are these digitizers of the same quality as the original? I was thinking of the following sellers:
ebay.com/itm/OEM-HTC-DESIRE-S-SAGA-TOUCH-SCREEN-DIGITIZER-TOOLS-NEW-/310335200835?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item48416b5e43#ht_1742wt_1396

Any additional tips about this replacement are much appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

If ur in the UK try wefixmac.com they have desire s screens
I've had a few iPhone screens off them, top quality and quick delivery. Not sure about fitting tho
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA Premium App
there are quite a few screens on ebay which claim to be genuine. Not sure if they are but at least you can complain through paypal to get your money back if you don't think the item is genuine. I've only bought a digitizer once before for the iphone 3g from ebay. It turned out to be good quality and it's still in good condition apart from a little dust under the screen which might become an issue, but i think this is an issue anyway with the desire s.
Also, that guide looks pretty good and clear. can't find anything others.

i bought 2 of ebay.. Ath the moment there is a copy (non-original) digitizer on ebay and i do beleive that most of those sold on ebay are copies.. i got 1 from china and 1 from UK. The UK was copy.. The one from Hong-Kong looked like original..
you can understand the non-original as the symbols & the HTC (logo) are how can i say it "less bold" than the original. and the surface of the digitizer is not as smooth to the finger as the original

Do you remember (or can you look up) the one from Hong Kong? This shop looks pretty genuine to me, beacsue they also sell the "Frame Bezelf Housing Case". I find it hard to believe that they also make copies of those, but I might be wrong. They are also the creators of the guide I posted!

Thanks for all the replies so far!
i got it from here:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180681641967
the thing is that this one looked original, but the back of the digitizer (the circuits & the cable ) was a little bit different than original..
The copy which i got from a UK seller looked as a copy (text symbols and touch wise - it even was a fingertips magnet 200% more than original) but looked exactly like the original from behind (even the cable had the same part numbers etc) clearly a great copy job
so you choose original front or original back
