Good evening guys, I wanted to ask, any one knows the average price for an Original LCD screen and its Digitizer together?
Im seeing prices from 45~120$ but i wanted to ask if anyone have ever got any before, plz would help me to find the best for my friend Sensation thx.
I called HTC they said 180 and I think its worth it through them rather than a phone repair shop. Which I wish i did....
So I broke my screen. I looked up some digitizers but I dont know what I should get. Could someone please suggest one to buy? I have a T-Mobile USA sensation. Does it really matter which part I buy or will any digitizer work?
I'd recommend you just send it to HTC. I had my digitizer replaced by a computer repair shop that said they could replace my digitizer and I had it done for 70 bucks. After they replaced it my digitizer would barely respond to the point that I couldn't even use it. They replaced it because they had a 30 day warranty but even that replacement was just as bad. I had the digitizer replaced one more time and it was better but still not the same. I just couldn't use it without getting frustrated. I ended up just exchanging my phone through my carrier but I wish I avoided the hassle in the first place....
I replaced both the LCD and the Digitizer just last week on my Sensation. I had the the touch screen issues you guys are talking about, but as soon as I upgraded the radio the problems went away.
Here's a post with the firmware update. You have to be rooted and have your bootloader unlocked.

Well can you please PM or post which one you ended up buying
Does anybody has got the link to replacement guide in relation to original lcd + digitizer? On yt I just see how to replace only digitizer but I want to buy an original set (lcd + digit) and replace it. I'm afraid of getting the dust after changing just digitizer.
I bought digitalizer for 30euro and followed you tube video to change it my self... The repair shop asked 180euro for the repair (300 new phone) so I gambled and it was worth it.
Good thing on sensation and htc phones is you can replace the digitalizer alone compared to example Samsung where u need to buy and replace lcd screen same time. Costs loots more.

Yeah, but while replacing only a digitizer it's very easy to get dust under it when man doesn't have laboratory conditions.. And then what? Starting all from the beginning? Some time ago I saw on ebay a digitizer + lcd for htc sensation for about 50$ but I just don't know how to replace it
Actually when u have working digitalizer connected u don't need to diassemble. Ucan just pull the screen out with knife from the frame. (because flat cable u need to put phone to pieces) I left some dust under first but then saw this trick on YouTube and used it to clean under screen with micro dust towel.. Anyway even with the minor dust its lot better than broken screen.

You tube is your friend.
On you tube are only videos that show how to replace just digitizer or how to DISASSEMBLE lcd + digitizer. I'm looking for info how to ASSEMBLE digitizer + lcd set.
just seen a pair on ebay for $55 :good:
ebay item number: 130646942239
From where should I know which type (A or B) I need to buy? Another problem - how to ASSEMBLE it?
Does anybody know if every lcd + digitizer works with normal sensation? I mean if there exist different versions etc. I have sensation from Europe. Im going to buy the whole screen so I need to know it. Additional question, does lcd + digit from sensation xe works with normal senny? Thnx in advance.

I bought my digitizer on ebay for ~ 35$ and changed it using youtube videos. Everything works perfectly.
Pretty easy

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
hey
today my sgs fell out of my car and the screen digitizer is broken just see the photos
do you know any site where i can get in original digitizer???
Dank u
Look in my thread and you find your answer. I bought my digitizer from here: http://cgi.ebay.com/Digitizer-LCD-Display-Screen-f-Samsung-Galaxy-S-i9000-/120595111860?cmd=ViewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1c14075fb4
thank u man
i will check this digitizer immediately could you say how long do you take in get it home ??
and how was the quality sorry for make in new thread i just was looking here but didn't find nothing about the broken screen
yeah, just do it yourself
Same Problem
I had the same experience my phone fell from hands from 3ft height on the ground and it developed crack not as many as yours, one single crack across the face. I just wanna know has your digitizer arrived .and when your screen cracked was it working normally ,because mine is working all right just the crack is there.
U have to pay ~50 .. ~60$
Replacing your own screen... you guys are pretty amazing.
hey i just orden mine in about 10 working day i will get it and you have to orden the full combo cuz the digitizer dont come alone for the moment

I just noticed that cnn.cn now has the SGS digitizer on sale.
repairs
I will fix any broken galaxy s screen for £120 or buy the broken phone off you for £150.
The Part is preety much the whole phone you only save the mainboard and backcase.
the vib motor speaker all that sort of stuff is part of the screen.
So if you are buying just the glass or screen of ebay they are fake parts are void the warranty, also the quality will be very different.

My screen is broken to, but the LCD is not. The phone works in 100%, even touch, but the glass is broken. I am not sure, is the digitizer everything that I need or do I have to buy LCD+digitizer to repair it.

They come as 1 part, so you'll need to replace both.
As the title states I have a cracked digitizer. Do not think the LCD is damaged as the display works fine and there are no signs of bleeding. I have gone through here and read several threads about replacing the digitizer/screen and have also contacted HTC about repairs. Buying a digitizer myself will only cost about $30-40. However; I have read threads on differences in the digitizers as well as when self-replacing there is a HIGH probability of dust, fingerprints and response being not up to par. Now to just send it in would be somewhere around $160 and I would know it is perfect. What are your guys' thoughts? And if you have done the repair yourself please let me know how it was.
I replaced an LCD and digitizer on mine and it wasn't too bad. I also own an HTC HD2, that phone was hell to replace the digitizer, I failed and sold it all in pieces. This phone however, was much easier, and I left NO specs of dust under the screen. Just make sure to replace it after a hot shower, and use a duster. On a random note, I bought another hd2 that had a new digitizer replaced on Craigslist, it has dust under it that I didn't notice -_-. Don't forget to check!
Yeah. I was thinking about just doing it myself. Only thing is the thing with the different digitizers. Supposedly it makes the screen laggy or even unresponsive if you have the wrong one. That's what I have read. Not really too sure though...
Try this post, replacement digitizer and instruction video.
Sweet. I will definitely check it out. At the moment I am fiddling around with my new SGS2 so the Sensation is taking a nap

Huh HD2... Yes I had same trouble... Mine was refurbished when I bought it and guess what? It was fu****g super glued together! I spent 2 hours just to open it.
Later on, I thought only digitizer was cracked but when I removed it (1,5 hours) I found out that LCD is damaged too (on the edges). Just to be sure, I ordered touch+LCD already assembled (dust free of course) and I`m waiting for it now...
I also got me a newSensation XE which is definitly A LOT easier to dissasemble...
Try it yourself, you can always send it back to offical repair centre...
Could you link me to where you got your assembly? It may be easier and more beneficial for me to just get the complete kit and call it a day.

Found somewhere that does it for $80. Might just do that. Don't wanna deal with the hassle of tearing it apart...

Long story short, screen got cracked after dropping it for the first time. Asked around, most places are telling me it would cost me well over $200 to fix it. They also offered to buy it, seemed kinda scam-ish to me. Anyways I am wondering if I should replace both the digitizer and the lcd together or attempt to just replace the digitizer. Not sure if anyone here has had experience with this or similar phones, any thoughts?
i have had to replace cracked screen on my sensation once - i had no idea of digitizers and lcds back then so i took it to a local service centre and they had it fixed for 75$ or something if i remember correct .
why fix it if it ain't broken ?
I just replaced my screen and you really should get the lcd and digitizer. I bought the combo off ebay for about $80 and it took about an hour to swap. It's not easy, but definitely doable. The lcd and digitizer are glued together so it's extremely difficult to replace one and not the other without breaking something.

Where exactly did you buy the part if you don't mind my asking? Is it the same quality as the original screen, as far as brightness, color, and sharpness are concerned?
Thanks in advance. About to attempt the same on a One X I picked up from a friend
Okay so I was duped by the low price when trying to fix my wife's One X and purchased the digitiser only.. I didn't even attempt to install it but I did pull her phone apart and destroyed her LCD and Touch screen before even separating the assembly as my tool slipped between the digitiser and LCD resulting in cracked/broken LCD
To be honest its a scam sellers are selling the glass only without clear warning of the dificulties ahead that LCD is sooooo fragile! and too much heat would just break the LCD..... and possibly de solder parts....
Now it still powers up and is visible via USB
Should I splash out the extra $30 and get the LCD only part from eBay and attach it to the touchscreen I already have?
or should I just buy the whole assembled unit for $90(Australian)
also Which LCD would I want? I have the Aussie Tegra version...(So I'm guessing the non AT&T version..)
Any Advice and experience would be appreciated Cheers!
To be honest I'd just buy the LCD + digitizer. The chances of being able to successfully join the two parts together yourself are fairly slim.

What timaaaaa said. I've yet to hear of anyone doing it successfully, and if there is someone they're definitely the exception. You know first hand how difficult it is to handle those parts, do you really want to risk it? Just put the digitizer you bought back on eBay (if your conscience allows you).
