You can find the LCD , Cover and Housing for htc tornado at http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_kw=tornado&_kw=htc
Mind that you can swap Hurricane and Tornado parts. As long as you keep all housing related parts together (especially the keyboard membrane) , the PBA of either device will fit in either housing, likewise the QVGA LCD fits cross-wise.
So if you find it useful, you can also buy used old device on ebay for spare parts (this is what I do).
What are you after to get?

I accidentally broke a 1cm strip at the top of LCD on my Touch Cruise, not the touchscreen but the underlying LCD.
Do I have any options apart from replacing the phone?
Not realy...

It was in my jacket pocket and hit a side of a garden bench. Not a major blow but enough to crack it. Then again I always felt that it wasn't particularly well glued/screwed together (Mine was from the first batch of phones).
Strange because my old HTC Prophet seemed to be able to withstand any punishment.
is it the digitizer that broke or the screen as well ?
digitizer

both are in decent price i guess
Brilliant
I'll order one immediately.
Is there anywhere in the net a "how to" that shows me how to open the Orbit II?
Not that I'm aware of but I'm expecting instructions with the LCD when I receive it.
most sellers don't provide instructions to disassemble, especially if off eBay.
Look at this...
Hey,
look in this Thread, maybe that this could help you.

I have replaced several screens on Touch Diamonds, however the LCD matrix appears to actually be stuck onto the digitiser and the LCD itself is very very fragile. I usually replace the whole unit (LCD screen and digitiser) because it is much easier. You can purchase these from various sellers in Hong Kong on Ebay.
I have allready bought a touch screen but not the lcd screen!!! Do u have a guide or something that shows how to change it???

My recommendation would be to re-sell the touch screen and buy yourself a complete LCD & digitiser module. It is much much easier to do. In terms of taking the phone apart, it is fairly straight forward. Be careful with the small co-axial cables inside though, because they are easily damaged and difficult to obtain without replacing the antenna board. Re-connecting the ribbon cables can also be a bit fiddly.
The LCD and digitiser are glued into the front of the phone. You will need to disassemble the phone and then very carefully using a plastic flat blade, ease the LCD out of the front of the phone housing. It will come out with a little bit of care. There should be enough glue remaining in the housing to re-seat the replacement unit and hold it in place.
If you google you should be able to find the HTC Diamond service manual which tells you how to take the phone apart and re-assemble it. I have a copy, so if you can't track it down, PM and I will e-mail it to you.

Hi,
To barncourt, how is the build quality of those honk kong made screens?
also a lot of the screen+digitizer that i have seen on ebay all have the front facing camera. would it be possible to use that screen even though my diamond is the one that has no front facing camera?
Of course, it is just a hole

Okay, but I tend to buy from the same seller. Not had any particular problems.

Hi I wanna know can you share your supplier adress with us ?
I'm looking for a LCD+digitizer and what I see is not something giving confidence...
So if you can give us some real-tested place to start...
Also I've dismantle the phone but it's quite hard to take the screen+digitizer away...
it's seems completely fixed with the housing does some one got s pics or guide on how to dismantle and replace the screen
(The HTC service guide you can see here and there just don't deal with the screen.)
and when I started just broke my screen (which was already broken anyway so...)
http://www.fuelip.com/howto/diamondlcd/diamondlcd.htm
I followed that guide and replaced my screen. I have one last problem though - I can't fit back my power button. It's made of two parts the black plastic cover and the transparent rubber. How do you stick them together? I'ts funny that I took my whole diamond apart with all the cables and boards and now I can not figure out how to fix a silly button
i recently dropped the phone and am thinking whether it is worth it or not to buy new housing. i have a touch diamond nam 3g with rubber back and no front facing camera. can anyone give me links to where i can find housing for my model. i saw a lot on ebay but those look like housings for the euro and asian model with glossy back and front facing camera. also if i want to switch off the front screen because of scratches, should i buy a whole new lcd or should i just buy a digitizer cuz i heard that it is hard to change just the digitizer.
anybody know anything about this?
If you need original housing it will cost you.
I bought from this company recently (EU)
http://www.mytrendyphone.com/shop/htc-touch-pro-13838p.html - £15.75
http://www.mytrendyphone.com/shop/htc-touch-diamond-11870p.html - £35.29
http://www.mytrendyphone.com/shop/htc-touch-diamond-13679p.html - £19.41
Total £70.45 + shipping
Note: The shipping is low from this company.
But your Diamond will be like brand new.
do they ship to the US though? also i don't see the actual front housing in there. i see that you bought a digitizer too. how hard is it to replace the digitizer?
From what I have seen, the phone has to be completely disassembled to change the digitizer, doesn't look like an easy task.
yeah but what i mean is, is it easy to detach the digitizer from the lcd screen?

i have asian non 3g htc touch diamond white without front facing camera. i just bought it two days back and from what i have seen nd heard, it's very difficult to replace digitizer or screen alone, if u cud get 'em get a screen wid a digitizer nd if u wanna save some money purrchase the housing with digitizer alone. but be very careful while removing the digitizr from lcd. they are sort of glued together but when u remove it, u shud have enough gule left to paste it into new digitizer.
nd sellers from hong kong are quite friendly. just ask a question to them on ebay about ur requirement and m quite sure they can make available to you whateva u want.
PS: i got it about two weeks back nd not two days.
where did you find a digitizer that doesn't have the front camera hole though
I tried to replace the housing of my Polaris and in the process, while peeling the Antenna Ribbon off the old housing I tore it I have attached a picture highlighting the antenna ribbon in question.
Is anybody aware of where I can order it from and how much it costs? If it costs too much the other option is sell the parts.
Thanks in Advance.
Internal Antenna For HTC CRUISE P860
In need of a merchant/site that sells G2 housing (preferably USA based) or anyone has a damaged phone that the inner workings are still intact that I can buy off?
Your best bet is searching ebay for a display phone.
hmm, I'm buying the Z Hinge mechanism middle housing that comes with the flex cable and i need the piece that screws onto that that the black sticker goes onto to cover the screws.
would a display have that?
