Hello all,
first sorry for my bad english.
I have a problem with my HTC Sensation. My Digitizer was broken so i wanted to replace it.
So I used this tutorial:
All was ok till I remove the old digitizer. At the buttons i have broken my flex cable. what for impacts has it ? how can i repair it ?
What I should do ?
Thanks for help.
The cable under the touch buttons if you break that the buttons won't light up no more I ripped mine when changing my screen.

ok thanks for reply. Do you know how i can fix it ?
Well where I live (Tampa,fl)they fix it in repairs stores. Around 80 but It will be cheaper if you do it your self look up the piece on eBay.
I don't mind the lights not lighting up.

i found in http://www.xdarepairs.co.uk the half price for the same repair.
any other idea?
please help
Buy a replacement screen from e-bay - get a screwdriver - and get to work!
Or order new one here http://cnn.cn/shop/p3600dopod-d810-screen-p-1734.html
i tried & failed on this task
i tried & failed on this task with my atom exec
i did try to replace just the touch screen tho
for this you need a surgeons hand a microscope and a soldering iron!
be very careful... my screen wouldn't plug in prope ly after removing
my touchscreen was broken to...
ordered one @cnn.cn
but absolutely no ned of soldering!
just a plug and play thing (after having disassembled the trinity)...
its easier to replace the whole screen, i.e. the LCD and the touch screen, than it is to do just the one!
i got my screen off ebay ! but beware there are some crap ones out there which give the screen bug problem. make sure its a genuine one!

Same here. Screen bought on ebay (~20) and replaced by me, it's definitely not simple but neither impossible...
what's the price of the screen on e-bay?

~20€. They sent me: digitizer touch screen+LCD display+ 2 opening tools.
I replaced the screen by myself following a video tutorial found on Youtube that shows how to dismount the diamond (but not how to replace the screen). The only problem I encountered is that lcd and touch have both a 4 pin connector that must be solderer together, so you must be able to do that (and I wasn't ).
I'm a new user so the forum doesn't allow me to post external link.. anyway you can find some screen easily on ebay.
P.S. now my diamond works like a charm!

Hope this helps!
the lcd and digitizer come seperated and no instructions are included.
i ordered and replaced both last week.
i wanted to replace only the digitizer but when i opened the devide they were glued together and had soldered flex cables.
i ended up replacing both lcd and digitizer and soldering the flex cables.
works like a charm.
good luck
Hi guys, my son dropped his sensation XE and cracked the screen.
The phone still works, inside LCD isn't damaged and touchscreen still works perfectly.
But it's got this huge crack running diagonally across the whole phone. Sooner or later its going to stop working. Strangely the phone casing doesnt show any other damage.
I can buy individual digitizer screens from ebay for £25, also some sell the complete digitizer+LCD in one piece ready to attach to phone for approx. £50.
Apparently the whole LCD+digitizer have to be replaced together, so I would have to buy the complete LCD+digitizer for £50. I phoned a repair shop in London but they charge £90 with postage including the new LCD + digitizer.
I can find lots of help changing a normal senasation screen on the net and youtube but nothing showing the senastion XE taken apart.
Anybody done this before and have any tips on how to do it?
my old sensation had a broken digitizer, I got a replacement off ebay and took it to the local phone repair shop, it cost me £20 for the part and £20 for fitting.
You could do it yourself if you feel confident...
The digitizer and LCD do not have to be replaced together...
Once you remove the void sticker from the back your warranty will be gone...
*cough* you can buy the void stickers of ebay and stick it back on *cough*

Ok, that's your normal sensation. The senastion XE is different. I asked at 3 repair shops and they all said the senastion XE has to have the LCD+digitizer replaced together.
They said the normal sensation doesnt need the LCD swaped.
HENCE my question, how to fix the XE screen?
the sensation and sensation XE are exactly the same phone, except the sensation XE has beats audio software.
There is no physical hardware difference at all
HTC Underclocked The CPU and removed beats audio so they could bring out the XE Version which was a 'NEW' Phone, This way they can sell more and maximise profits.
Then why have three different repair shops told me otherwise? They actually told me if it was a normal senation they would exchange the digitizer quickly and cheaply.
But the XE has to have both LCD+digitizer replaced together, even though the LCD is still ok!
Could the LCD+digitizer swap be due to the digitizer compatibility and lag issue you posted above?

Its possible, But i suspect that the phone repair man is taking you for a ride, Trying to bull**** you with jargon making it out like he knows best because 'he has done this hundreds of times'
Then he can charge you for 2 parts + labour when in fact the phone only needed 1 part.
If where you live is anything like where i live, These bastards will screw you over for whatever they can get away with.
EDIT: The lag issue can be fixed by updating software / kernel according to that thread.

+1 - Exactly the same physical hardware
If it is exactly the same hardware then there are enough sensation tear down videos floating around on youtube.
I'm pretty good repairing electrical stuff, should I trust myself and buy a senastion XE digitizer from ebay for £25 and try the swap myself...or better send it to a repair shop for the complete LCD+digitizer swap?

I did just that for my Desire after I dropped it onto a concrete step.
The the thing was so NEW I couldn't even pick up a case or screen protector for it
Worked fine by the way , so give it a go.
Hi guys, I successfully changed the broken digitizer with a new one
I tested it and it works!
BUT
Before I could screw the phone together, while I was fumbling around with it the digitizer cable came out of it's tiny socket and the tiny white plastic clamp on the socket sprung out and now I can't fix the clamp back into the socket!
I tried putting the cable into the socket without the white clamp but after a reboot the digitizer wouldn't work! Screen came on but touchscreen was not working, obviously the cable isn't sitting correctly in the tiny socket without the clamp.
Here is a picture of the socket without the clamp.
Can anybody suggest how I can securely fix the cable into the socket with a clean contact?
I searched google but because I don't know the proper names of the socket and tiny clamp, I didnt find anything.
I'm sure this is a regular problem as the socket and clamp are so flimsy and they're used in the millions, there must be solutions to find on the net...

Cheap digitizers - No No
Recently got fixed my canvas 2's LCD display and Digitizer (touch) from nehru place for 2500/- the lcd display is quite acceptable at such price but the digitizer does not do any justice.
I ran a multi-touch test and it showed only two touch (where OEM digitizer is 5 point touch), calibration was also slightly imperfect and also the build quality of these cheap digitizers are very low when compared to the OEM.
If you use your canvas 2 for gaming then please do not go for these cheap digitizers, do your homework before purchasing any cheap digitizers.
Can any1 say how to replace the touchscreen without breaking digitizer?
I've purchased the touchscreen for my canvas 2. How can I insert this without breaking the digitizer. Also which Glue using to fix it?
Hi all my problem is i bought my Z3 off ebay it had a faulty screen. The screen is not displaying anything so i bought a new screen fitted it but its still the same so bought another thinking it was the part but its still the same. So i need some advice wether its the zif on the board thats faulty or the flex ribbon. the zif connector looks to be ok. And the back light still works and i can hear the boot sounds and notifacations. I just don't want to keep buying parts willy nilly
why did u buy two new screens? why didnt u take it to service center?

Because Sony service center is terrible I sent my z1 there in the past for screen flickering and they tried to charge me £315 to fix it. I have replaced the flex ribbon since and still the same no picture on the screen just cant see whats wrong with it
Dont waste your hard earned money. Buy some other brand phone
