[Q] One X LCD Screen replacement. - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

So i am replacing my one x lcd screen.. bought the whole lcd and digitizer since looks like a pain to just do the digitizer.. i got the old one out, put the new one in and power up.. phone vibrates, but i dont get any sounds and no display on my screen.. i have check all my cables too many times, reseating each one, trying everything.. the other thing is once i push the power button to turn on the phone, it vibrates, makes no noises, but if i hold down the power button afterward, the softkeys start flashing several times.. do i just got a bad lcd or is it something more?

none?

Sorry I meant to reply to this yesterday but forgot lol
You need to sync your new LCD.
How do I do that? You may ask.
Plug your old LCD back in, dont put the phone back together, turn the phone on, while it's on, switch LCD's to the new one.
If I'm not mistaken, that should do it. Post back and let me know.

Good Luck. I would assume if you asked on here you would expect to hear an answer you didnt expect or you'd have thought of it
But yes, there are 3 screen types from 3 diff makers. So if you bought a different one, you need to sync it or it will appear to be off. Digitizer will still work.
1) Green Flex (Sharp)
2) Green + Yellow Flex (Sony)
3) Yellow (AU)

try this one http://www.etradesupply.com/oem-htc-one-x-lcd-screen-and-digitizer-assembly-with-light-guide.html

Do instructions exist or are there any hints for the removal of the existing screen?

Videos on YouTube.
Tip: Keep track of where all the screws go. Have unlimited patience. Stay organized. Minimize distractions while working on it. Heed my screen sync post above.

yeah, i followed the video instructions exactly. and youre right, i posted here to find solutions i never heard of or thought of. as far as syncing with old screen i am SOL on that one.. i sent it back today, and ill try out the new one. post my findings here and i am hoping its just a DOA screen and not the phone itself. thanks for the responses.

We have synced the old LCD, installed the new and the screen looks like white noise on a TV screen.. We have tested this LCD in a functional unit and works fine.. Is this a board issue?

Sounds like it, but you may want to test another screen with that board just to be safe. I haven't tested extensively the results of mix and matching screens with different boards.

Then the GPU is most likely at fault which is built into the board. New board needed. As for the fast response. NP, I live here.

[Q] New LCD and Digitizer DOA?? Help please!

So I ordered a new LCD and digitizer from new harbor via amazon.
I took the phone apart, installed the new array, and powered it on, and the screen is great (maybe even brighter than the last one) but it just has zero touch input.
The last screen worked fine, but the LCD was broken. I could have it acknowledge touches so I dont think that the motherboard or anything else is broken, so I wonder what may have went wrong.
Should I take this mofo apart again and see if I have a loose connection? Maybe the ribbon cable is not connected right?
Probably the past is DOA?
Help please! thanks.

Is this somewhere in the service menu? I can boot into its custom menu by holding down volume and power... Not sure if there's more to it.
It's rooted s-off so I get menus to get into recovery or fast boot etc

Scratch that. Just re read your post. "Zero touch input". It's an option in the rom.
There are a few threads/posts where people have replaced the screen, either here or the dhd forum. Check what they had to say. I have absolutely no experience in that. Perhaps it's a cable as you said, but before doing that, I would research on it first. You may end up like me with 9 screws left over after taking apart my ps3 three times (screwing it up even more).

Removing and taking it apart isn't a problem. There are only eight screws.
This isn't fun... To be certain.

Just replaced mine. LCD intact. Touch no longer working. They aren't kidding: this phone isn't fun to work on. It's a *****. I've repaired a half dozen iPhones. This makes that stuff seem rudimentary.

I've had my inspire apart several times. Other than removing the Flash/GPS, and separating the LCD from the frame its quite simple. If you want a pain try a slide phone.

Understand your pain because just recently I had to change my entire screen for my Inspire 4G. I assume that you did everything correctly but here is the video that helped me on youtube:

If you did everything correctly it could just mean that you prob got a faulty part

Screen Problem

Hi,
My phone has a problem, i hope someone can help me, it started about a month ago,
When i slide the keyboard the screen would freeze, the image would freeze or sometimes it would become like this:
http://www.esato.com/board/img.php?id=140762 ( this is not my phone its just a pic i found)
This problem would be solved it i gently slide the keyboard back in, the screen would be back to normal, sometimes i had to slide it out and it
alot of time to make it work.
Well, today i woke up, with the screen of my phone all messed up ( like in the picture), i slide it out and in alot of times but no luck.
I turned my phone off, when i turned it on, the screen doesnt lighted up or showed something, the phone just vibrates, i took off the battery and tried again but no luck.
I read somewhere that i could be the flex cable, so i ordered one, but its gonna take some time to arrive.
Anyone had this problem before that can help me?
I didn't encounter such problems on MT4GS yet. But being a slider phone enthusiast I could 100% say it's a flex cable thing since I encountered that problem more than a dozen times already on other phones(nokia).

I would strongly recommend that you get a cable with the speaker already soldered in place....
+1 to that, get as much pre assembled as possible, this is about the most pain in the butt phone I've ever had the pleasure to disassemble. Read the last few posts here!

thanks for this bit of advice.
Disassembling the front of the phone is a pain. I'm a fan of spending $40 on ebay on a broken phone (where the screen still works just fine) and swapping out the fronts. That will get you a new flex cable as well. Otherwise, you risk having to get a new flex cable *and* a new LCD.
Agreed. First time disassembling front I was scared not to OVERheat phone internals. I ripped in half trackpad ribbon, damaged lcd back cover and got a lot of problems from it.
Then I bought broken phone with good front, but dead LCD. Second time I just lost it, I heated phone so hard that I got burns on my fingers, but it was worth it, LCD glue came off soo nice.
So better to overheat, then underheat when disassembling front LCD.

[Q] HTC One X Digitizer/LCD Repair Problems

I run a cell phone repair company and we do quite a few repairs but this in particular HTC One X has us all stumped here. We do realize that there are 3 different versions of the dig/lcd and we have the correct part. But has anyone had problems with trying to replace the HTC One X dig/lcd assembly. It seems that after I put the new part on the lcd is black but the phone is still on. I even went back and put the old screen back on and it is still black. Prior to the repair the lcd worked fine. But just the digitizer was cracked. I have even went as far as changing the motherboard on the phone to a new one and am still having the same issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Have you checked the ribbon length to make sure you do not have a break?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
It would seem to me as though it's just as simple as one of the connectors is not plugged in or just not plugged in properly, which is easy to do since one of them is on the underside of the board which I believe is the one for the screen itself.

Exactly. Seems like the only probable answer is that something was broken during teardown - either a cable or connector. Given the size of everything in there, it doesn't take much....
Did you ever find a solution to this?
I'm kind of in the same boat at the moment, BUT there's a silverish lining
In the midst of replacing a screen on my One X. Phone is obviously "on" (despite being in pieces on my desk), but n either the new or old screens will come on when I push the power button.
For a lark, I plugged the phone in, and did an 'adb reboot'
My splash screen comes up on the new screen just fine, as does the Viper Logo and my home screen and everything.... but once it shuts off the power button will NOT re-wake it up. At first I thought "I must have broken the power button" but I also forced a notification to it - which also typically wakes up the screen - and also saw nothing.
EDIT : Cancel that; for some reason the power button didn't work until I had the case back on. Grounding maybe? Either way, working fine now.
Some Ebay product page for a screen replacement said you should first power on the device with the old screen, then take the old screen out while the phone is running and put the new one in.
Maybe you should trie that. I'm not a hardware expert, so do some research before trying this and don't blame me if it doesnt work
That will only work if the screens not working. Op. It's difficult to narrow the issue in your situation. If the flex cables don't work, it's a short which would require much more advanced knowledge to fix.

[Q] Need SERIOUS help with my skyrocket!

Hey guys.
I have an SGS2 Skyrocket that boots but nothing ever shows up on the screen!
I held the power button and it does in fact boot the samsung logo never shows up.
The keys at the bottom light up but still nothing.
Seeing that everything worked i booted the phone into download mode to see if it would fix it (i still couldnt see anything, i was just going off of the vibrations)
So I decided to go ahead and flash back to stock GB from odin.
It went through successfully and it booted my phone back up.
Still nothing showing up on the screen...
Can someone please help me?
Sounds like a broken/cracked/bad LCD or digitizer problem.
Was it dropped? Left in direct sunlight? Leaving it back pocket and sitting on it? ...
So seek out a new LCD replacement. From your thorough explanation (awesome description of the problem!) It sounds like your logic board is fully functional.
So you should be good to go with a new LCD which runs around $100+/-$10 but check both eBay and amazon. And watch some youtube videos to see how the phone teardown works or pay a little extra to a repair shop to get it fixed.

It indeed sounds like you display is shot. If your phone is under a year old Samsung will replace it for about 160 bucks. If not then you can do it yourself. Here's an excellent photo write-up for the procedure:

The last one had cracked and i did replace it.
When i had turned it back on it was like this unfortunately.
Could it be a Hardware failure or something with the motherboard?

replace entire screen

Im trying to replace the lcd (the whole front panel) on a surface pro 1, and have run into an issue. Its for a friend of mine and it was presented to me with the old front panel removed and the new one kinda slapped in there, Im wondering if anyone has a link to a repair guide for it. Ice done many screens before and it kinda seems like its dead. I have all of the ribbon cables connected and none of them look pinched or damaged. Any help/thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

well, the original one was, but the replacement isnt. The person who started the project took the old screen off and replaced it with an entirely new one but couldnt get it to come on, so he gave it to me to work on. Ive connected all the ribbon cables and tried rebooting it, but it wont come on. Is there a way of force rebooting it like there is in android? Ive tried holding the power button down for over 30 seconds and it didnt do anything.

I'm not sure honestly.
I also have a Surface Pro 1 with a cracked screen and would like to replace it.
The cheapest way is to only replace the glass with digitizer http://www.aliexpress.com/item/For-...-Glass-Replacement-Parts-1pc/32368476632.html
I know replacing the whole LCD combo is easier, but is this still doable? For example with this http://www.aliexpress.com/item/100m...ine-to-Splite-Glass-Lens-for/32245814109.html or these http://www.aliexpress.com/item/5ml-...for-Cellphone-Glass-Lens-LCD/32479129528.html tools
Or should I use just use the complete set: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free..._78_77_80,searchweb201644_5,searchweb201560_9
And is this the right set to buy when you want to fix a cracked screen on a SP1 128GB
