Hello world
My dad dropped his DHD on stone floor , face down, screen now looks like WW2
Well, my question is, is it possible to replace the screen yourself or does it involve a series of special tools and fingerbreaking moves?
Thank you.
You can do it yourself look HERE It's not too hard,

Thanks for the link, my friend dropped his and was going to pay a small fortune for it to be fixed at a shop.
Wow that phone looks different to the one I have, mine doesn't have the microphone on the rear cover wth?

Very easy if you order plastic frame/digitzer / screen all togother like this, needed about 9 screw removing and lift out the "motherboard" with all wires on

This link is just a example. you will be expected to pay around £50-60.
buying glass screen only is false encomny, as you will break LCD and frame in process.
better off replace the whole thing.
Hope this help you. :good:
honestly buying the whole lcd is a better idea but not the only idea, if u have the tools and the knw how and most importantly the patience to seperate the LCD from the chassis and thn the touch screen from the digitizer thn u can replace only the glass which will cost u about 10- 20n pounds but it will have the signs of replacement but if u dont want the hassle or dnt care abt the money and want ur phone to look new as never touched thn buying the whole lcd is a better option P.S : Saying this coz i tried to change the glass ended up damaging the chassis as well as the digitiser:silly:
Ive done a few different handsets and once you've done one they are pretty easy, just take your time and dont rush
have to help my friends DHD with this

Contact them. They'll most likely need an IMEI number or serial..
You'll be fine. Do a titanium backup or nandroid backup and send it in.

It almost looks like the screen got too close to a magnet.

Almost but the pattern looks too much like leaking fluid for me to think that. Also, I don't think LCD screens are effected by magnets like that. Correct me if I'm wrong because I'm not about to start dropping magnets on this one..

Moisture....you dip it in the stool?
Did you happen to install screen protector with an included fluid? Same happen to my Inspire me when I got little too generous with the fluid on the screen. But then I left it in a spot next to my radiated heater inside a paperback for overnight and it dried off and completely went away.
Has there been any excess pressure on the screen? That's really weird. I'm curious now LOL

I think it might have been the screen cleaning apart I used.

I ordered it Thursday or Friday and got it today. The fit is perfect. The buttons are cut out in such a way that they stick through the case (rather than being covered) and I like that. It makes them easy to press but harder to press by accident than the rubber cases that cover the buttons.
If I have one complaint it is that the one in the picture looked more clear. This one has clear spots but the pattern is opaque and not very subtle. I was hoping for less of a pattern and more of the phone's natural beauty to show through.
All total I am satisfied. I ordered a black case (the one with the swirl on the back) the same day so I will see which one I like more when it gets here. I suspect I will like the look of the black one better so I hope the fit is as good as this one.
i have one of these on my xoom. Quality is superb
I just got the black one and I like the way it makes the phone feel
feels a lot better then the tmobile one and I like that the holes are cut out were there suppose to be

Pretty snazzy eh.
Tutorial :
TAKE YOIR TIME!
HAVE A GOOD SLOT OF TIME TO DO ALL THIS LIKE 5 HRS!!
For best results disassemble the phone to strip it as best you can. There are plenty of tutorials for that on YouTube.
Sand it Down. The purpose is to have a surface the paint can stick to. I used 200 grit.
Tape up the phone all the parts you don't want to get pain.
For the screen you don't have to worry too much the paint scraped off easy with a plastic hard edge...
I used a quick dry spray paint.
Grey primer first two coats of white and one coat of clear.
Let it dry for at least 30 min. Between coats. Don't do the coats too heavy..
Now the phone may possibly have a sort of sticky feel when you hold it. But that's okay if you followed my steps it should never come off on your hands or loose its shine.
If you ever get a bad dent or screw it up or you just dont like the look...
There is no harm in doing it all over. Best to redo the entire process. Including resanding it back down to the primer should do.
TAKE YOUR TIME!!
actually looks pretty darn good, now i want to do something like this lol
I actually just dropped it and the back of it dented the paint a bit. Oops
Edit: NM its good
And so I have spoken it.. and so it shall be.
Wow,this looks awesome. What paint did you use? Give us a little tutorial. :-D Good work btw... ;-)

Hey everyone.
This phone was dropped.
Based on taking apart my HTC Incredible 2 to try and see if i could get it to stop overheating, i am confident I can replace the screen on this one, the wife is quite fond of it.
Please give me some idea of what parts are needed.
1. There are NO VISUAL CRACKS on the device, screen etc.
2. The screen seems pretty responsive but i cant really test every part of it due to the display issues...
thanks in advance, i promise to click the thanks button...

If their are no cracks on the screen then its the LCD. But personally I would get the LCD/digitiser combo where they are already attached together. Much easier than trying to separate them and replace one
This is what it looks like if it'd be both the screen and digitizer
I feel your pain wish I could replace mine xD.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda premium
thanks to both.../
i guess it would be easier to just replace both at once. from what i have seen with taking apart my Incredible 2 you need a hair dryer to take the screen and digitizer apart, so that seems like a hassle.
I appreciate the answers.
You're welcome yeah its definitely not that easy I'd recommend getting the package over jut the LCD. Because you might break the screen when you try and take them apart. So get them together

I have replaced a LCD/digitizer for this phone also. This video shows how I did it. I think it is better to do it this way because in other videos I've seen, they have you disassemble parts of the phone that don't need to be. You may have to put down new adhesive on the back of the LCD. I did. One other thing, the light diffusers for the home, menu, back and search buttons usually don't come with the new LCD/digitizer so you will have to use your old ones. They aren't fun to put in. Good luck!!

Replace the display.
Always use a good case like the Zizo Bolt otherwise this phone will get damaged.

The price of the screen is very high, my brother, and I cannot buy it. Is there an alternative way to fix it?

Replace the whole phone. At least you could use the old one maybe for some parts in the future.
Unfortunately there's no way to repair a AMOLED display as it is comprised of thousands of semiconductors in its matrix that controls the individual OLEDs. The touch screen circuitry was also damaged.

This phone won't survive without a good case. Not much help now, but bear that in mind if you replace it or haven't damaged it yet. With no case they are harder to hold too... slippery fish.
There's almost zero bezel... and the only thing they do more than corner hit when dropped is face plant on the display side. The spen corner seems to take more hits than the other corners too.
