So my fiance broke her screen and I need to replace it, but all the places I see online that sell the glass/display assembly note that there are different versions of the assembly. Yet they fail to mention which versions are there and how to ID them. Would any of you guys have any information of figuring out which display version you have? I know there is a short and long flex version, but that is about it.

so my screen broke and only 1/3 of my screen works. it was ok for a while cause I was usng my dock for pretty much everything but now sometimes my screen will randomly get pressed on certain pressured spots and intterupt what im trying to do on my screen. So I found a place that is able to install a new screen and a place that sells the parts but I don't know which version of screen to buy. here is the link v1 http://www.sinomobileparts.com/for-...1-inch-touch-screen-digitizer-v0-1_p4889.html
and v2
http://www.sinomobileparts.com/for-...1-inch-touch-screen-digitizer-v0-2_p5183.html
is there any difference in the screen types? one is cheaper than the other so if there is no difference obviously I would get the cheaper one but does anyone know how to tell which version to buy? I bought this tablet like in january so would I get the newest version?
update: I called asus and no one is given the information or at least they won't release the info of how to find out which digitzer to get. all they can do is set up for me a send in tablet profile so they can fix it for 300 dollars plus, yea right. I read somewhere apparently the version numbe is on the inside of the digitzer screen
ok for future reference it seems you have to open up your tablet in order to see which screen digitzer version your tablet uses. I used this : http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Asus+Transformer+Infinity+TF+700+Teardown/10306/1 to open up my tablet to figure it out. it is really simple. I have my part coming in from sinomobileparts.com which I will be installing myself . also I dont know if this helps but I got this tablet in january so maybe the newer tablets come out with v.02 but idk
so about a week ago I purchased a tab 2 from a "friend". he said it had a cracked screen and he just replaced the digitizer. and it looked good and everything. so I paid him, then got home and noticed there are 2 zones on my screen that are completely unresponsive. he also replaced the back case of it, and its the wrong one. so I told him about the screen and he just said sorry, guess I didn't use it enough before I sold it to notice it...so I cant get my money back or anything, so im taking it upon myself to fix this.
I know the digitizers have different rev's. right now it has a rev 3 digitizer. my "friend" also threw away the original digitizer so I have no clue which one I need.
my questions is, is there any way to figure out which exact digitizer I need??? or is it possible that the rev 3 is the right one and this one is just gone bad/cheap?
I need help ASAP! I want this fixed and sold and off my hands. I also already searched around for a solution but found nothing....
thanks to anyone that can help!

I know this is late but if it's a REV.03 you should get another REV.03. As long as it works it's the right version. Your screen is either defective, has dirty contacts (use eraser to clean), or inserted crooked.
Mine on the other hand has no REV# printed on the digitizer cable and I can't figure out which one works with it. I have a REV.01 and REV.03 right now and neither of them work. Only the mysterious original screen with a crack will work.
Different revisions on digitizers
I noticed there are several revisions on digitizers. Mine apparently is a REV 0.0 since there are no markings. I asked a supplier and they told me what revision I have. They also said they did not stock REV 0.0. My question is does anyone know a good supplier that carries all revisions of digitizers? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is for a GT-5113TS
I"m in the same boat!
Hi, I have exactly the same issue, I've tried a rev 3 and it doesn't work at all. My original works fine but is shattered and there are no markings at all on the flex cable. I was also told that mine is a rev 0.0 but can't find one anywhere. I noticed that if you look closely at the connectors on the flex cables the original has all of the contacts and the rev 0.3 is missing the #2 contact. Let me know if you find one that will work.
I just swapped out a broken digitizer with a REV02 and it doesn't work, on the broke one it doesn't say REV but it has MCF-101-0403-V3 ISU 1238. Does that mean its REV03?
same problem
I broke my tab screen a while back and have so far been sent two note screens' and 4 screens of what i imagine are either wrong version or defective. Dod you ever solve your problem
I have dropped my phone and the screen kind of went crazy with colors and overdrawing images and slowly became completely unusable. Can the screen be replaced? I found a bunch of video and instructions on how to do it, but was wondering if replacing the screen will fix it or it's a bigger problem with some broken chip or smth like that.
If i can't fix it, any suggestion as to which phone to get as a replacement. I love custom roms and play with them all the time, but I am not uptodate as to which phone are good for this.
Thanks. Any help is appreciated.

screen replacement
it appears that you not only broke the screen but also the LCD behind the screen. It can be replaced, I have done several. you can pick up a screen with LCD digitizer for less than 100.00 on ebay. I also saw several with frames. If you get one with the frame it is very simple to change. Make sure it is with the correct service provider and you can put your boards in the new one without heating yours up removing the old components and installing the new ones. If you have any questions or concerns let me know. I can walk you through it.

Thanks for the reply. I did find some replacements for the LCD as well and the instructions are good. I am now debating whether I should just get a new phone. Any suggestions as to which one could be a good replacement?
just my opinion but I prefer the samsung phones, However there are many great phones out there. When I'm looking for something I new I like to research as much as I can about the product and compare them against each other. When It comes to phones it depends on what you want to be able to do with the phone. Not to mention that as soon as you but the latest phone on the market a new one will come out soon after....
First post, complete noob, so I apologize.
Someone just gave me a TF300T that had a broken LCD and touch screen on it and I thought I would replace them, they seem to go for about $70 for both parts. Seems like its worth it since used ones go for about $130 on ebay.
My LCD screen says its a Rev 4, but I cant really seem to figure out the touchscreen version. I only see G01 and G03 version kits on ebay.
I attached a photo of the numbers on the touch screen ribbon.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
anyone?
your touch screen is No version
Sorry, I know this is a developer site, but I'm at a loss here.
I have a Verizon M8 for Windows that had a dodgy touch screen. Everything else worked fine. I purchased an LCD/digitizer and installed it. LCD wont come on. Phone powers on, syncs to PC, I can navigate around by taking screen shots and viewing on the PC, so I know the phone is working ok.
So, I purchased a 2nd screen, thinking the 1st one might be faulty. Same thing. No LCD. If I plug the original LCD in, it lights up fine (I cracked it removing the digitizer, so can't re-use it).
Next, I purchased a good, tested 2nd hand motherboard (Verizon, For windows) thinking I may have damaged the LCD connector. Still no LCD display.
Does anyone know if the screens are specific to either the Verizon or Windows Phone versions? Or anything else I might be missing? I've been repairing phones for years (mostly iPhone, Samsung, Lumia) so I'm not new at this.
Regards.
I think you might have bought bad quality screens. Have you bought them off the same seller? you might want to return them.From my experience,the M8 lcd digitizers are interchangeable across carriers and OS versions(win/Andro).
I have not had any experience with other variants like M8s etc but screen from verizon sprint att fido chatr windows android are interchangeable

Thanks for your reply.
I purchased the screens new from two different suppliers. One was a chinese knock off, the other was a high quality OEM screen. Both were full LCD/touchscreen and front frame assemblies.
I can't believe that both are faulty. As an update, I bought a second hand screen from another Verizon WP M8, and it works perfectly. I'm going to purchase an android version M8 with damaged screen and see if either/both of the new ones work on that.

I replaced my M8's display twice. Bought them from Etradesupply.com. The parts that are rated S+ are original OEM parts direct from them. No third partyish crap going on.

Thanks. I'll give them a try.
I have tried to install even original (stock) LCD from ANDROID phone to WINDOWS phone - it does not work.
But screen from WINDOWS phones works perfectly on any ANDROID phone.
I have an idea that maybe hard reset or flashing RUU will make it work, and I tried: after hard reset even native LCD stopped to work.
Friend, did you tried to flash phone with new screen installed?
