[Q] Is there any better screen for GTab?

hi guys, anyone found a better replacement for GTab?
Is it possible that PixelQi screen in NOA be compatible with GTab?

It would be nice. I found link to buy the display.
makershed.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=MKPQ01

More expensive than I though...

Read the hardware breakdown thread. Someone already tried putting a PixelQi in the gtablet. It works but was too thick. The PixelQi is 4.9mm thick and the stock gtablet screen 3.6mm. I think fit is going to be the biggest issue in finding a replacement. The PixelQi is one of the thinner panels you can buy (most range between 5.0-5.5mm) and even it is too tight for the gtablet.

Also, before posting you should read and search.
There is a three-page long thread (usually fairly close to the top of page one in the "General" thread) which tells of many efforts and products on screen replacement.

Thanks guys and sorry, I Trully didn't see the other thread.

High res screen replacement for zpad accomplished by Bigideas

I am only an ordinary user not a Dev,i am only translating the information,any question should be posted on original threads.
It is a success, however it is a screen replacement of zpad not gtab, sorry for that since i thought the two is the same last time i post this,but they are very similar in hardware,so you maybe still want to see this

thanks for paying attention and i am not the person who did this
but they still do not have good ways to get the screen
on the original thread Bigideas also said that ten point multitouch IC replacement and tweaking is also on the way.

thanks for the information, CLAA101WA01 is 5.2mm in thickness and CLAA101WB03 is of 3.6mm in thickness which is the max thickness to fit in the case

True but not available as of yet. Once it is I will certainly be in line for one of these. If the specs are correct, that just puts the gtab over any other tablet on the market.

Is the file below your first post the re-hash that big idea made? Because I can't make heads or tails of the chinese site.

Well if you bother to go to the site he linked, then you can see that google will translate it for you, but which button do you press to download the file?
The one I thought it would be asks for a user name and password.
Which takes me back to my ORIGINAL question, is the file the OP linked the file needed to change the resolution on the g tab if a new higher resolution screen is installed?

Sorry for not response. Time is different i went to sleep. If you visit the orginal site you will find a link which leads to exactly the same datasheet i gave in attachment here. no rom available since big ideas did not give. As she said she had borrowed the screen from a friend and get it work with a selfcompiled rom. but drop it to the ground and break it later. She asked for another one but only got only the datasheet of the screen

Attachment is a pdf so please extract it and read it. It is not something to change the res in rom.

I downloaded the pdf file of the original thread by big ideas and put it in my attachment.the hash do not meet the hash in the file name.

If you search LP101WH2 TLA2 on alibaba.com, there are many suppliers. Don't know whether its thickness fits though.

quick update now. in the original thread bigideas said she just order 5 of this kind of screens via a friend in HK. SO this thread is closed and we will wait, they may come to xda to tell the result themself.. thanks for paying attention.

i'm just seeing a slight issue here. The G-tablet's 1024x600 screen is a 16:10 display, whereas 1366x768 is 16:9.
Are the pixels on the high-res display non-square, and if so, is there any correction being done somewhere along the line?
EDIT; i checked your specs and nope, they're perfectly square. The g-tablet on the other hand DOES have non-square pixels and a physical aspect ratio close to 16:9.
This panel will be magnificent in the g-tablet

Maybe that can be a issue. but we will wait until bigideas post picture or video of the detail of screen replacement and the final effect and then make the decision wether or not it improves things and then i will follow them to buy the screen. there will be the need to flash into the rom bigideas has finished specially for the screen ,which may solve the problem of ratio,the rom is not posted now . the people on ezpad think the screen can give a better experience with the coming honeycomb which maybe still a little faraway so we pay a lot of attention to the thing. chenglu and bigideas are the legend of ezpad and i am only a ordinary user who loved xda and ezpad and wants to help.

sounds a lot like the new screen of A10. I believe they are the same.
http://www.jr.com/elocity/pe/ELY_A10_dot_4/

lets hope the screen fits and works with our tablet. If we had a good screen, this thing would be perfect

I'm totally new to the software side but can crack cases...curious if this is a fit?
bliss computers => lg-philips-lp101wh2-tl-a2-laptop-lcd-screen-10-1-wxga-hd-led.aspx (won't let me post links yet)
I emailed the sales department for recomendations ans confirmation on fit for the G tab...of course i'm clueless on what firmware/software mods would be needed. Just ordered mine from amazon so obviously I need to have a plan to gut the poor thing before it shows up

Thickness is the priority when you choose your screen,most laptop screens are 5.2mm and the original screen is 3.6mm, our guys tried something made by lg and plugin with no change of software and it is thicker and only backlight on and nothing show up on the screen at all, when you are going to change the res i guess there are adjustment in something called timesequence or timegraph, you need to change things in driver in the rom,the thing you can see from a datasheet,i do not have experience with those things so my guess may be wrong. i can not tell you whether your screen will work or not, you can have a try if you like. i am also only a ordinary user who are waiting for the result, but i think this is the most promising attempt ever because bigideas seems to be capable of doing such adjustments.this is not yet a fit since no promised result and no detail pictures is released, you do not need to make your decision based on the information above whether you try your own screen or not

so let me see if i get this right?
an order has been placed for 5 screens that should "just work" upon install. correct?
they should have better viewing angles, higher res AND correct thickness?

If I'm reading this right, there has to be a ROM that addresses the screen resolution. It's not plug and play, but in theory it should work.

LCD replacement, but not Sony or Hitachi part number

I am trying to replace the LCD screen on a 4G slide and I see there are two versions, a Sony and a Hitachi. The problem is that the part number on the broken screen doesn't match the part number of the Sony or Hitachi. I'm not sure what to do. I've Googled the part number on the broken screen and don't get any results. Has anyone seen LCD's other than the normal Sony and Hitachi? Maybe someone has a resource that would know which manufacturer this part number belongs to? The part number is: 83H00434-00. The serial number starts with: 2A4A. An y help or advice is greatly appreaciated.
Thanks,
Ed

In my post I pasted the kernel source that references the screen - maybe Sharp made a screen?
There was also this one:

Pretty sure those are the only threads we have on lcd stuff, excepting that awesome guide on how to replace it that was posted.
Anything recent, though, definitely could have slipped my notice.

MAN.....is it ever great to have you back Blue!!

Thanks for the info. I did look through both of those posts previously. I do see the Sharp referenced in the kernel code you posted, but I can't find any reference to there being one available for the 4G slide. Maybe I'll try and order the Sony first and see if it works. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong part number...I'm getting it from the silver backing that holds the screen. I'm pretty sure that's the right place. There isn't a part number anywhere on the screen itself, back of screen or ribbon cables that I could see. I guess I can match it up by appearance since the Sony version has that extra line on it and then go from there. I'd hate to waste money and order one that isn't going to work though. I have attached images of the screen and the silver backing in case anyone can see something I'm not.
This phone is an absolute nightmare to take apart without damaging the screen and now I have an LCD screen that doesn't match either of the available replacements. I've taken apart and replaced digitizers and screens (and other parts) on hundreds of phones and this one takes the cake. That sticky tape they use to hold the screen to the backing is insane. Luckily the LCD was already broken, because even with a heat gun and hair dryer I couldn't get the screen out without damaging it more. I definitely won't take on one of these again.
Sorry for the rant. :laugh: I do appreciate the help and info and if anyone else might have any ideas of why I have a different LCD part number and what replacement I should get, I'm all ears.
Thanks,
Ed

+1 to that!

Yea, the Sharp thing is just theory, never heard about it but that's what was in kernel source so... Dunno, could be referencing something else entirely.
Also, Dillalade took pics when he tore the phone down in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23115759
So, maybe you can see something that might help ya there, outside chance.
Never took one apart or got inside, so, limited help but if I can think of anything I'll toss it here.

i also have the same lcd and i cant find anything with the same p/n or even s/n im just wondering if i could use any other screen.

if you want to know my experience with replacing the screen, read the final post HERE
i wouldnt suggest getting a sony if you have a hitachi, or vise versa

Screen Disassembly

Hi,
had anybody changed his Screen on a A700 ?
I can't find any guide and I'd prefer to prepare it before disassemblying it.
My screen have been broken, but the LCD is ok, then I'm buying just a digitizer.
If you have any clue or hint to provide, thanks in advance.

Hi laloutre!
That sucks to hear.
Fortunately, I did some research and found the thing you'd want.
On this page you'll find a video in which is explained on how to open up the tablet in big steps.
In the service guide you'll find a complete teardown specifically for the A700, starting at page 5-5.
You can download the service guide from a nice guy who didn't mind to upload it, so please thank him:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29643591&postcount=6
When you are done replacing the thing, I'd be happy to hear how it went.
Good luck!
Edit:
------ Removed content: ------
I tried to find such a guide, but there are not so many good resources out there.
Since the A510 is practically the same, but with a less awesome screen (I wonder if you could change the screen of the A510 to a 1900x1200 screen (A700's screen)), you could use that guide to change it.
I read that the LCD and digitalizer are sticked to each other:
- Fused LCD and front panel: The A510’s LCD screen is permanently joined to the front panel with what appears to be a form of thermoplastic staking. This process eliminates the need for screws, but makes it nearly impossible to replace one without replacing the other.

(Source: click here)
Of course, this might be different on the A700, but I don't expect it to be.

Thanks for the input.
Your last point scares me but I keep some hope as the front screen is sold separately.
For now I'm waiting a few weeks I guess because the screen will come directly from China...
Be sure I'm gonna post my results when the process will be finished.
In the meanwhile, I'm gonna Google again and again...
See ya

Anyone seen this screen issue

Noticed this when I looked at tablet from angle anyone else seen anything like this. Its under glass and can't be cleaned.

Nope, never seen this before -- I do have some "fluid-like" sheen when ushing on the screen with some force (especially on lighter backgrounds), but that can only be seen with the unit turned on.
Off-topic: I would like to request you to not double-post. It is generally frowned upon -- not only because it clutters the forum but since it splits up the answers to your question in two different places. That makes it harder to see what has been taken up and what is let to b answered and/or amended. Just ask once, and if we know the answer or can help out in some other fashion, we'll get in here. Thanks.

that definitely looks like a warranty covered issue, i'd guess that there's a bad adhesive seal between the screen layers.

It looks like mold. :S I thought they used clear (that is, transparant and colorless) glues for that?

I have this on occasion, but always on the outside of my screen. Never on the inside.
If it's on the inside, send it back.

White residue on the outside and not the inside: not chlamydia. You'll be fine with a simple scrub-down.
Sorry, I'm on shift in the hospital, couldn't withstand the opportunity. I'll scurry off now.
