Cracked Screen on my Touch Pro

I dropped my touch pro and cracked the screen in a few places. I think it works normally except for the screen, as it receives calls fine...
A new phone isn't in my budget right now. Does anyone know of a good place (hopefully in DC, MD or VA) that will supply or install a replacement touch screen?
(btw, no recent threads came up when I searched.)

Ebay!
Just looked, $30 including postage for a screen & digitiser if you are able to do it yourself.

How hard is it to replace a screen if it has surface damage? Is there anywhere i could find a walkthrough or help?

Shame man, its a tragedy of what happened to your phone...
Luckily its not too bad, and you may just be able to fix it. You can download the service manual for the phone here: http://htcwinmobile.blogspot.com/2009/03/htc-raphaeltouch-pro-service-manual.html
Just a note though, make sure you DO USE tweezers or something to get the speaker wires out of the way before snapping the enclosure back into position... I had to reopen the phone again, after powering it, to rejoin one of the little wires thats like a tenth of a millimeter thick DO NOT IGNORE ANYTHING THEY TELL YOU IN THE MANUAL. Oh, and what works well for the "plastic removal tool" is a cut out piece of plastic ice cream container. AGIAN, do not ignore anything in there... You are voiding the warranty permanently when you do it yourself (which you unfortunately have to).
Anyways, good luck!

I drop my phone also, but the screen didn't actually cracked! but I do have is problems with the screen in other ways! Sometimes I get a black screen when I turn on the phone and sometimes not, but when the screen turns on, it flickers a lot and have lines thru it. What suprises me is that sometimes I get perfect images on the screen (Which makes me think that the screen it's not damaged).
Any suggestion would be apreciated. Thanks!

3 days and still no answer from anyone! I would like someone to throw me ligth on this issue. I'm waiting for this to know exactly what I need to buy, before I start assuming things.
Thanks in advance!

Sounds like the LCD connector may have come unseated. You could open up the phone and make sure all connectors are firmly seated if you feel confident in your abilities.

Thanks for the advice! I was thinking on that also and wanted to take my chances opening the phone (oh god!).
BTW, I saw the $30 LCD Screen+Digitizer combo on ebay that Beeble referred to, but I'm not sure if it fits on the fuze (my model). What have come to my mind it's to buy also the front camera of the phone (like a thread on the kaiser) to mod the cell, in case I need to buy the screen+digitizer. I've search all threads about this issue but nobody has done it because it was too expensive for the result; I believe with this price it's worth it right now!

solved

I used Diamod (!) LCD and Touch Pro digitiser. Works perfect.
Much more cheaper

If your screen works fine sometimes, you most likely don't need to replace it. there's probably just a loose connection somewhere. If you really want to replace it though, there's an ebay seller with a really good deal. $20 for the screen and digitizer already glued into a new front body piece: http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-HTC-FUZE-LC...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item3ef8817bf6 That one's for the fuze, but I think the seller has other models too. I'd definitely get the LCD and digitizer together or else you might end up like I did on my first attempt: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584050

WOW! What a long way to get to the screen. Good luck for everyone who tries to dismount and mount the Raphael.

Thanks for the advise maxh,
I just wanted to let you know that a miracle just happened! my cellphone started to work just fine without even opening the phone! it has more than a week on this situation so I believe that it's exactly what you stated (the LCD conector became unseated or loose). Since it's still working, I have no need to open it! so I'll just wait until it becomes defective again and at that point just open it and tight up the LCD connector!
Anyway, I would love if somebody could make the mod that I was refereing to before (changing the screen of the fuze by the touch pro one) and see if it's possible to attach the front camera on the fuze.
Once again, thanks everybody for your opinions.

I got my new display+ digitizer on Ebay (65$) and replaced it, using the russian link mentioned above ( follow the exact procedure) , it took me 2 hours to do it, and after lot of patience it worked! My problem was the digitizer never worked fine, and after replaced it it worked like never before. If You are not familiar with repairs, it will be a mistake and waste of money to buy a display without digitizer. NOW, I have a small problem, my display has a NEW color, it's like color temp is WARM for this display, and COLD for my old display, AND COLOR level is lower, and the result is display without vivid colors, black like gray. Is there any way to change the DISPLAY color settings?

Anyone found Replacement SCREEN for Acer neotouch

I cracked my screen (while it was in the pocket of my jeans). Anyone know where I can find replacement screen? Is it easy to change it?
Thanks

I can't paste a link here so copy the number and paste it in ebay.com:

I don't know if it's easy to change..

Thank you very much, I will look into this one.

screen seems to work fine, installation was not too hard. However, new screen acts little weird, as once phone is off, backlight turns off immediately, but you still can see image for few seconds under normal light, pixels show through, and then it fades away.

Look for an original AUO H380VL01 or HTC Touch HD Sharp matrix... It's reported to be compatible with our phone

cracked screen too

I installed mine today -after 6 months with broken screen- I bought lcd for HTC Touch HD T8282.It is far more cheaper than the acer one and fits perfectly.ebay item 290424248491.

The HD screen is the same of NeoTouch?
I've paid 70€ for a screen for newTouch, but your proposition is more good: 50€!!
Are you sure it's good for Acer? My touchscreen is OK...

Im using it since last friday. its perfect

I received my screen today, but it's difficult to open this mobile phone!
I remove 5 screw on sur back of the phone, but i don't know what remove

i have the same prob.... i dropped my phone and my screen blanked ....and i need another lcd .... i was thinking about what you did.... but if i'll get the HTC one the front of the mobile will be with HTC logo instead of the ACER one ...
right?

screen now fixed
I took my phone in to a local shop and they were able to change out the screen using an HTC HD screen (yes, the exact same screen as the neotouch). All is fine with the screen. They messed up the power button, but that is another story. I watched the guy do this and it seemed like a hell of a lot of intricate work to do yourself. I was happy to pay the $120. Now, I just need to return and get them to redo the power button (installed it incorrectly when putting it all back together).
For those adventurous enough- go for it, but I suggest the cheaper HD screen. And no, only the screen was replaced, which is under the touch screen/digitizer that actually has the acer logo. All looks as it did before.

I took my neotouch for a motocycleride in the rain. It didn't like it too much and now the touchfunction is messed up on parts of the screen. It all displays as it should but I can't use parts of the screen. I should be allright with just replacing the digitizer right? Ebay item Item number: 170518652337

Hi, the same for me.
Touch doesn't work on some area.
Need change digitizer or LCD?

Antenna gps
Hi someone tell me where it's possible to buy a part "gps antenna "?

LCD Screens from HTC Touch HD and HTC Blackstone are working correct. Use these replacements instead of original

Hi,
this didn't work in my case. After replacing my broken original lcd screen with a new lcd display (eBay - No. 120608475783, Original HTC Touch HD LCD Display T8282), I can see that the display is switched on, but it doesn't seem to receive any signal (like you turn on your pc monitor but not the pc). Now I have two questions:
1.) If only the lcd display is broken - should I still see something on the display? Because on my broken display, I only have a black and a white part and some coloured stripes, mostly where the display is broken.
2.) Is it possible that there is something more broken on my NeoTouch or did I simply receive a broken lcd panel? It did fall off the couch, completely flat on the display.
fyi: the new lcd was missing some isolation (on the flexible part with some electrical components) which was present on my original lcd. I used some sticky tape as a replacement because it is directly positioned over some other electrical components on the phone when in place.
New Info:
Everything except from the display seems to be fine - when it is connected to my PC running "My Mobiler". But I have seen pictures of mobiles with a cracked screen whre you were still able to see (partly) the homescreen, etc. On mine, I am not able to see anything while the cracked screen is mounted - only white and black parts and some colored stripes...
Update: The delivered display was broken. Yesterday I received a new one which works perfectly!
many thanks in advance

anyway could you suggested seller lcd f1 on ebay???
i'm afraid if wrong order with lcd resolution under wvga,,,

[Q] LG G2 - Screen Cracked

Hi Devs, Members and Guests, how you doing? To be honest I was doing well until my LG G2 cracked on the top just a bit and now I can't pull my notification bar or do any operations on the top of the phone...
I re-created with Paint what happened to the top of my phone:
((check the attachment of "How My Phone Is.jpeg"))
The red and orange is exactly where the crack of the phone is, not that thick, however it's noticeable. The black marked area is where you the phone does not operate (you touch it and it doesn't do anything). The green line is safe area. Also, I'm running CM11 (recommended for any LG G2 users) with TWRP and runs very good.
Now the problem is that I really need my phone fully working again.. It works but I have to do some weird stuff so I can at least text someone. So here I got some questions that you guys can help me out:
1) How much you guys think it is to fix the screen?
2) Is it possible to change the resolution or the display in the phone so it will be displaying the ROM in the working area of the phone? Here is what I mean by that:
((check the attachment of "Question.jpg"))
3) Any other solutions you guys got?
Thanks for all of you who read and those who can reply and help. Have a good day

First off, fixing the phone will cost you, if you do it yourself, around $60-$70 bucks. That is for the LCD+Digitizer+mid body assembly. And that is by far the easiest way to repair the phone. You just switch all your internal parts from your old assembly over to the new assembly and pop your back cover on. Easy breazy. I just did this myself and my phone is now working great. As for your second question about changing the resolution, no. You can change your resolution but it will not "shrink" your screen to the usable portion. Your only option is to replace the LCD and Digitizer.

Broken touchscreen :eek:

Hello dear community, my dreadiest fear just realized today :
my X2 decided to make one with the concrete...
luckily, both with my heart, only the touchscreen shattered from this unholy union.
So now I want to replace only the broken thing (less expensive) with a replacement part I found on aliexpress (25 € for those wandering), BUT I was unable to find any clue about the separation of the LCD and the touchscreen :
Are they inextricably bound together as the galaxy S series are ?
Or are they just attached with some tape as any good reparable phone should be ?
I was also wandering whether the screen parts were the same between the X1 and the X2 !
If you have any material showing how to proceed with the separation, and care to share them, I'd be in your dept forever !!
Boujou bien !

The disassembly should be the same as the X1 video here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NOG1SISbKw

Yes I have seen this video, but it is only showing the removing of the screen/touchscreen from the phone, not the separation of the LCD from the touchscreen (they are both broken in the video, hence no point to mess with them !)

They are fused together so it's not even worth trying to remove them. 99.99% of the time you won't be successful.

Good to know !
I almost succeeded once, with a heated bench, But I'm not willing to try that again…
Did you have to fix yours already ? Any clue about backward compatibility with the X1 assembly (20 % cheaper !) ?

I Sat on my Huawei honor X2 -Screen is not working Properly
Hello (posted this in wrong area a few weeks ago)
I sat on my X2 GEM-703L under several pillows - bend was 1/2 inch - the top & bottom were 1/2 inch lower than center . I carefully bent it straight (there is a small kink in metal frame right side just above center button. Everything else seems to work beside the screen. *** I will push "4" and the key adjacent character is recognized, also it will type on its own or type 3-5 characters when I only pushed one...
Questions:. Does this sound like touch screen Replacement will fix these issues??? Or is thier additional interface hardware attached with the touch screen, or both?
- I really like that phone - hoping it is not a lost cause...
Thanks for your help
Gary

Hello Gary, sorry just saw your post.
I Think this might be fixed by a change of screen, but the problem might also come from the bent frame too.
For the tactile to work properly, and not register wrong input, the screen needs to be grounded and I think also calibrated to the phone caracteristics. If you just replace the screen, it's environment would not be the same as it is suppose to be anymore (frame with a kink) hence there is a risk that the new screen might reacts weirdly, registering ghost input etc... Because the screen might not rest flat on the support frame, and the contacts used for grounding might not be working anymore.
I have a spare screen that I*just bought for mine, unfortunately my problem seems to come from the motherboard, so the screen is useless for me.
If you want to give it a try, and live in the US, pm me !
If you don't want to do it (the screen comes without a frame, so you have to use your old one)
I'm willing to buy your phone to try to save mine ! :angel:
Best,
Quentin.

Screen damaged what should i do

My sister just broke her moto x pure.
The display works, however the digitizer do not works correctly. Cannot post pictures because the wallpaper is containing private information and i cannot change it.
She cannot use the entire screen.
For example on the lockscreen, she cannot use the 8. And the other digits works very badly. So she cannot unlock her phone.
What should I replace (screen, digitizer...) and where should I find the replacement part ?
Thank for your help

You'll need to replace both the digitizer + display as they come together. If you are good at repairing phones, you can get the display from eBay or else send your phone to service center if you don't. I would suggest you to send it to the service center.

You could use a USB OTG cable to connect a mouse and thus regain control of the device in order to clear any sensitive information prior to having someone fix it. I have bought and fixed several Moto X pure edition phones with cracked screens for family members. Most of them did alright, but one phone had the screen replaced, then a cow stepped on it. Although it didn't crack, after a while parts of the screen stopped responding to touch. The screen I replaced it with has not been damaged at all, but parts of it have stopped responding to touch as well. Sometimes I wonder if these phones don't have a particularly weak and easily damaged screen. I sometimes get my replacement screens from GadgetFix. If you fix it yourself make absolutely sure that you get a screen+frame assembly. It's just a few dollars more, and totally worth it. And be careful when you transfer the speaker grill trim to the new screen that you don't press hard enough to crack the screen.

Thanks you, I think I will change the screen and the frame.

Is this what I should buy ?

The screen that you posted does not include the frame. I briefly looked on eBay; you might find one with the frame included for a few dollars less than gadget fix, but for simplicity I just linked this one. On the back side of the display you will notice the screw inserts. That is what you need to look for.

Could you point me to a tutorial or a video explaining how to change the screen

I believe that Ifixit has a whole teardown tutorial for this phone. If not just search YouTube for (phone model) screen replacement, watch it a time or two, and then pause it while you do each individual step. If the first video you watch doesn't explain things in an understandable manner just watch another one. It's been a while since I searched for one, but I think there are at least a few good ones.
