Any help? This hasn't happened to my nexus s or anything else I own?

Looks like the lcd's bad. Still have warranty left?

Looks like a smurf had fun with your screen.
Send it in for warranty, you got a bad lcd.

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..

That's where my cat is hiding! Come back whiskers!

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.

Broken LCD

Looking to fix a broken LCD screen on my Infuse 4G. The screen still works just has a crack. I know I don't need a full assembly, digitizer or LCD backlite, all I need is the top glass. I can't find anyone who sells just the glass everyone wants to sell the assembly for $200+. Is there glass part available or am I screwed? I've replaced iphone 3gs screens b4 anyone have experience with the infuse?

How'd you break the screen? Also if the glass is broken its not the lcd presumably? Although if it is the lcd I'd think $200 is about what it would cost to replace. The phone is supposed to have gorilla glass that like won't break, right?

Gorilla glass can and will break, just not as easily as normal glass.

its just the glass I'm hoping I can find the part and not have to buy the whole top half with (glass, digitizer & lcd) anyone got a part number?

its not an lcd, its an amoled.

Just spoke with Samsung at 1-888-987-4357.
They will repair for $155.
Seems like the way to go if needing repair.

As far as I know, samoled screens are fused with the glass over it. thats why you can only buy the entire screen/glass/digitizer as one part.
Good thing about this design is better sunlight viewability and no dust under the glass

[Q] Cracked Screen

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

So, do I need a new SCREEN or DIGITIZER or what. Pic included

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!!

White screen after lcd/digitizer replacement

Ok, I made a good-faith effort at looking for something on-topic but didn't find anything (I'm a n00b).
I've done several digitizer/lcd repairs on Iphones and the HTC 4G.
Here's the story: Broke screen. Ordered new digitizer and LCD. Took phone apart, replaced parts. Turn on phone and I get this:

Did I damage any of the ribbons? Simply put it together wrong?
Another problem- I'd like to go back and double check, but now that its on it appears theres no way to turn it off short of taking the battery out (which didn't seem straight forward and still risks shorting something). Any other way of turning off the device just using the hardware?
Thanks guys,
e

Hold the power butoon down and the capacitive buttons should blink and it should restart or turn off. Or just wait for the battery to die

Pull it back apart and double check ALL your ribbons. As you know, having taken it apart before a couple of them are pretty tricky to get snapped into place. Most likely forgot one or didnt snap one it quite right. Also, plug it into your pc to see if its recognized. Its got power, just no signal from the board. Good luck and take your time. I bet it will be just fine.

I am usually super careful, so this actually hasn't happened to me before. I'm assuming its definitely related to the LCD, right, since the screen is lit but distorted?
One thing i've thought about is whether the flex cord connectors have to be put in facing up or down. One side of the ribbon is red at the connector point and the other is the yellow/orange color. Anyone know which side is supposed to be facing up? I'm about to open it up again and redo the connections.
Thanks,
e
