cracked my screen last night and am going to be replacing the front/digitizer. does anyone know if a replacement from the XL would work? i only ask because i already have the euro/white battery cover and think the white digitizer bezel might look pretty good when replacing it...
thanks!
Of course not. The XL's screen is 4.7 inch whereas the Sensation's screen is 4.3 inch. Thus I do not think it will fit, moreover work on the sensation.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Ok guys,
today an unfortunate incident happened with me..My desire fell down from my hand..As a result there is a hairline crack on my display..It seems to be superficial..My slcd is not damaged..besides touch function is also working properly..
I want to know tht if I replace just the plastic screen will my digitizer also get replaced??I mean are they both attached..
How much will it cost??I will opt for genuine one..not the ones on e-bay

If I could find an oled screen with the same dimensions and resolution as our phone, is there some way to swap it for the lcd we use? Just wondering

Probably not. There's no driver for it. Plus it would have to have the same connector as the LCD

If you could find one with the same exact size, resolution, and connector (and also uses each pin on the connector for the same purpose), then I would say yes. The probability of finding one that would work slim to none.
Is the screen we have the same as the G2, or better?

The MT4GS has a super LCD and the G2 only has a TFT LCD screen so we have a better LCD screen. Although the G2 has Gorilla glass and we don't.

Oh really? I thought both devices had a S-LCD...
Either way, I'm not planning on dropping my device so Gorilla Glass doesn't matter to me. I take very good care of my devices. Haven't dropped any of my previous 4 phones
Just the usual pocket wear. That's the only culprit. Otherwise I would be able to buy and sell my phones back in New condition lol.

You could still drop it and the screen wouldn't break since its plastic, it's just less scratch resistant than gorilla glass is all. But as far as the LCD screens go that was from GSM arena so it may be right or may not. Usually it's pretty accurate though.
Any one tried with an HTC sensation screen protector on One S? Their shape is almost the same!
Is they fit with each other?

i tried it,, I had one lying about from my Sensation
It fits but doesnt fit the whole glass, It covers the screen but not the buttons, or if you have it covering the buttons, the HTC wont be covered..
But if you have one lying about use it.. If your gunna buy one you may as well buy the correct one
Hello,
I am wondering if the One X and XL have the same screens, for replacement purposes. My phone got driven over, screen is shattered, phone still works fine, but need to replace it. Also if i replace the housing will the camera lens be replaced as well?
If anyone knows of a decent place to buy these parts, that help would be appreciated to thanks
Ouch. I believe so but you should get a second opinion on it, if anyone can chime in

I am starting to think so, as i cant find any one xl screens online. I cant find One XL housings either, and i would think they are different, seeing as the phones are different sizes. Frustrating none the less.
It's really hard to find housings for the One XL. I haven't seen any for the XL on sale yet. Alot of vendors on Ebay and the like will be selling parts for the International version. You might have better luck buying a One XL on craigslist from someone who's hard bricked their phone instead. Worth a shot.
After it getting crushed like that, I'd fear it would be only a matter of time before other things started going wrong. If insured, I'd make a claim.

it was on my friends front lawn, grass. I am not overly concerned, no insurance on it Just going to order a one x screen and hope it fits, buy a case that covers most of the back cover.
the screen will not fit, the One X and XL are different sizes! lol.
Here is the XL Screen

So does the phone still work fine or is the screen broken? Just teasing you. Sucks for sure. Good luck getting it fixed!
From what I have heard, the One X is not very DIY fixable. So people have had some success but others have failed. It really depends on how you do it. I hope this helps!

Somebody posted on here that HTC will replace the screen and housing for $220.

As already mentioned, replacing the screen on the One X is not that easy a repair job. If you read the whole thread from which the above post is from, you will see that a supposed "professional" repair shop couldn't even do it right (and subsequently pulled the service from their website).
Hey guys! I got some inside info in regards to this. I dropped my HOXL off a counter about a month back and shattered the screen. I had a shop replace it, due to hearing how difficult a self repair was. Interestingly enough, if the LCD still works, then the repair will cost a lot less, even though it's a much more difficult repair. In my case, the repair guy broke the LCD trying to separate the two pieces (which I figured would happen) so they had to get me a whole new panel. Interestingly enough, they replaced the screen with one from the HOX, basically the international one.
Yes, it will work, however, it does not sit totally flush on my device. It sticks up about the thickness of a credit card on all sides. Even though with a little force to the edges, you can get it to fit flush, so maybe it was just installed poorly. I've used a number of small binder clips to try and get the screen to sit flush permanantly, but no matter how long I keep pressure on the screen, within an hour, it'll pop out again. I use a cheap little TPU case that wraps around the edges to deal with the unevenness of the screen.
Secondly, the LEDs the illuminate the 3 buttons on the bottom don't line up. Again, I'm not sure if this was an install problem or a difference between the models, but the lights are off by about a centimeter to the left. As such, only about half of each icon are light up at night.
Hopefully that clears up some questions. I can get a picture or two up if you'd like...
I posted the link for the xl screen a few pages back...

Hi all
Haven't noticed any issues with my One XL until tonight and want to know if this is normal or if I should exchange as I am within 30 days.
When I push down on the left bottom, right bottom, and right top corners of the screen there is no play/movement. When I push down on the left top corner, there is a definite give. Is this normal?

I've had my One X for 3 days. No play on the screen, but I noticed today there is a crack or scratch in the LCD under the glass. I don't know how else to describe it, it looks just like a scratch, but I can see the glass is smooth and glossy at that place. At first I thought it was dead pixels, but it changes color based on angle. I was really hoping for HTCs flagship phone to last me at least a week without defects.

Mine does it in the too right corner.. but it takes pressure. So you won't really notice it. I think I pressed mine a little too hard and it might have popped back in. I don't recommend it though

I will have to try to exchange it. But, I only got it after receiving two doa replacement GS IIs. Plus the phone is awful if it comes with 2.2 pre-installed. I don't know if I want to roll the dice and risk getting one with 2.2 on it.
And I spoke too soon, mine does have play on the screen in the center at the top, right on the at&t logo.
Not too impressed with HTC build quality so far.

Lol "is awful" if it comes with 2.2. Don't know entirely about that.
I have actually been impressed with the build quality. But, something under the screen as you say sounds like an anamoly. You need to get that replaced.

Just took a further look at my screen. It looks like the top left part of the screen is raised ever so slightly above the tiny screen bezel around the screen. All the other parts of the screen are flush with that small bezel. Does this make sense?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
I think this is going to be very common with the one x's because of its unibody shell. The indented snaps that hold the phone inside the unibody go along the top bottom and both sides. HTC should of also had the snaps in the corners which would have eliminated the issue.
Yeah it's not a big deal. I might exchange it once, but other than that I'm not about to go OCD like some people here.

Mine does this in the bottom left hand corner. It makes the screen have a faint orange circle in that corner unless I apply pressure on that corner and it will fade for a few minutes before coming back. I've been debating whether I should bring mine in for a replacement but I'm worried I'll get stuck with 2.2
