I dropped my freshly rooted One X, cracked the screen .Short of un-rooting my phone is there an easy way of replacing the screen? Or is there someone on XDA that could do this for me, of course I would pay you to have this done. I don't want to unroot to send it HTC. Thank you.

Never said a cracked screen was covered, only said if I had to send to HTC for repair, I didn't want to un-root. I googled it and watched a video on you tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIeO0DueMcg, from InjuredGadgets.com looks pretty simple so I ordered the repair and I'm gonna fix myself. A lot cheaper than having it repaired

Where did you find the screen? I'm having trouble finding an AT&T-version compatible screen, and some sites say they are not interchangable (the non-AT&T and the AT&T).

I ordered it from injuredgadgets.com they are located in Georgia and offer 3 choices for the screen replacement, here is the link for the One X, http://www.injuredgadgets.com/HTC_One_X_s/1946.htm. I went ahead and got the complete LCD screen with digitizer, the reason being if your screen has not been replaced before most likely you will damage the digitizer trying to separate the LCD screen from the digitizer. With the repair kit plus the screen/digitizer cost $85, you can also send it to them and they will repair it for $150. Watch the video I posted in previous post, If you think you can do it order it and save yourself a few bucks.
Also if you are in major metro area I found some watch repair shops fix cracked screens as well.

Well I got my new screen w/digitizer and surprisingly it was pretty simple to do. Took all of about 45 minutes to do and probably should have taken no more than 30 minutes. It looks and works great.

Hello,
I recently cracked my screen and I would like to replace it on my own but i have the following question:
Did they send you an HTC One X Screen or is is the same for the Evita Device for this (AT&T is the one that I have)
Thank you!

I tried searching all over googleverse and youtube but not luck on a guide on how to open a G2 to replace a LCD. so this is my last resort at looking for an answer. does anyone have a guide or can tell me that its simple to disassemble the device?
Sadly, I wouldn't think there would be a simple fix to a screen like this, simply because of the hinge, although I could be wrong. What happened to the phone, these things have only been out for like a month.
Maybe OP was doing some durabilitiy test... or he was like his avy and fell off the skateboard crushing it =[
lol no, I was going to buy one off some guy on ebay to fix for my GF but so far no dice on the repair guide.
repair guide? LMAO
i think you're going to have to make your own repair guide
you will be a hero to many
Maybe pm the guy that tore his apart on here. He may have some tips.

What do you think about the screen bezel? I'd love to get it off and have it and the batt cover anodized.
Sadly karma has stricken me for posting in this thread I assume. I had a Zagg Invisibleshield installed, and the "solution" got underneath my screen and has messed it up.
Anyone ever find a replacement for this?
Also I was thinking of calling HTC but figured they wouldnt fix it.
Tear down is here:

BE SUPER CAREFUL WITH THE MICROSD RIBBON CONNECTOR. 2 pins on mine got messed up and now the vibration doesn't work...so be aware/be careful!
http://cgi.ebay.com/TMOBILE-G2-HTC-...Cell_Phones&hash=item35aeb64eae#ht_500wt_1156
Here's one you can use as spare parts/replacement screen. If you do get this, I might want to buy the main-board off you to repair the stupid microSD connector...ugh, still can't believe I broke 2 pins on it!
Thanks!

Me too. I want the HTC logo on the front dammit! Let me know if you find what we're looking for. I already bought the HTC battery cover without the "G2" logo.
So my Sensation has been working beautifully since I got in on June 8th at Walmart. The touch screen starting acting up today July 2nd and it isn't bad but the lock screen freezes mostly and I can't unlock the phone for a until after a few attempts.
I called T-Mobile and asked for a new phone since I have insurance. They are sending me either a "new" or "like new" phone. Does "like new" mean that the phone might have scratches on it? I don't understand why the phone is only a little more than 4 weeks old and I can't have a new phone?
Is this common?

Vodafone Uk only allow you 7 working days cooling off. After that you are locked into the contact and any faults with the phone have to be sent for repair and when this happens you may get a "quality assured replacement" rather than your own. Sounds like phone companies the world over try to [email protected]#k you over. Complete joke.

Officially thats correct, but mine (UK Voda) started to have the touch screen problem after 3 weeks, called them and they sent me a brand new one, i don't know if I got special treatment as i have been a customer for ten years or that they know of this 'fault' and are just replacing them, regardless i'm on my second.
to add the 7 day cool off is for web orders, if you buy from the store you have zero cool off.

Just FYI the SH16 thing has nothing to do with it being a sharp screen it is part of the serial number, and so far there have been no reports of a Zenith screen. Just want to clear this up before more rumors get started.
As far as a replacement device from Customer service they have to tell you this because it is there policy. However the device is new and they likely will not start shipping refurbished units for at least 4-6 months and maybe even longer than that. You will be getting a new device just different packaging.

Are you sure? I got into a big fight with the rep on the phone saying that I paid $148 at walmart for a new phone, and have it a little over 4 weeks (not even a month), and should expect a new phone. The rep told me I would not know if it was new or like new until the phone came. I just don't want to get a phone that has a scratch on the screen or anything like that. Am I just over reacting lol?

If they are like new it will probably be the ones customers return during their cooling off period and cancel.

I stumbled upon this a little while ago.
Samsung Infuse 4G SGH-I997 Replacement Parts and they seem to have battery doors, i know some of you needed some. they seems to have screens and digitizers but out of stock. Cameras, batteries, speakers and what not.
i have not bought from them so i would not know if they are legit. maybe someone here can confirm. Just thought id share.
Hehe yeah that site is good buuuuuuuut...
You need to be a reseller, repair or some settled bussines related to phones.... They sell you by batches and you require to apply for membership.
I once tried to apply to buy 1 battery cover...
I was contacted about 3 days later just to be informed about all this.
Thats it basicly you need to buy a whole bunch of em; and/or be a repair industry, reseller etc.
Yeah... dissapointing i knoe...
Stil if someone here is a reseller, repairs phones or something like that give it a try maybe my mistake waa mentioning i only wanted 1 battery cover haha

That's just the digitizer, not the LCD. If your screen is completely toast, you are going to need a digitizer+LCD combo. It would probably be cheaper and easier just to use your insurance. You do have insurance, RIGHT?

About the LCD, it's a different component you are saying? I will eBay it. This will increase costs. What am I in for here? Chhhhheeee

LCD PART?
You're going to want to try and find a complete assembly so you don't have to worry about fusing the screen and the digitizer yourself. Also, you're going to want to make sure you are getting a quality screen, considering how amazing the One X's is. This one is for the international version, not sure if it would work for the AT&T one or not.

I dropped my current phone a few days before the screen shattered and it's just been buggy as hell, it's barely been usable since. Plus I got a defective model in the first place with the WiFi issue which at this point is getting to be the most annoying thing ever. I guess I shouldn't have waited to get a replacement, I was too afraid I'd get a new one with the update but now it seems like it's going to be a very slim chance of getting one without the update
I just got a refurb from AT&T today with 2.20 on it already.
Sending it back. Guess I'll live with some stuck pixels and root, I have 90 days to decide how much it bothers me.
Unless an exploit is found for 2.20...

Just realized how lucky I am... My phone dropped from 3 stories into wood... Amazingly I have no issues, just a slightly blue tint on a pinkie sized part of the screen only visible when there's a Grey background and a scratch on the top corner of the chassis. Of course it probably helped I had a zagg screen protector which is scratched slightly at the top.
