I was wondering if its possible to hook a larger screen up to the inspire, mine is going to crap so its been sitting in a drawer then i got to thinking i wanted a tablet, then i started thinking what if i just got a replacement screen for a tablet and connected it to my old phone!! Do they have the same connector?? would it display on the screen properly?? so i did the google search and came up empty handed hoping someone here will know, somebody has had to try this before, any info would be appreciated, thanks!

Ok so i walked into my desk at work last week and cracked the LCD - i had already puchased a new digitiser as my screen was getting pretty scratched up so i figured i'd simply buy a new LCD and take the phone and new parts round the corner to my local phone shop who were happy to replace my screen and return the next day.. great.
Fast foward and now i have a BIG problem. The new LCD doesnt seem to work once the phone has booted. SO, when you turn the phone on you get the usual windows boot screen with the rom info in red in the bottom corner (im using Monx's latese 6.5 rom). After that though it all goes Pete Tong, when then alignment wizard starts the screen goes nuts, flickering like an old TV and not displaying a steady image. The guys at the store say the phone is damaged from the knock to the screen however before I did a hard reset and removed my sim and SD card the parts of the LCD that were still able to display the today screen etc were showing everything correctly and flicker free and even allowed me full touch control with the stylus.
I basically need some advice from people who know a thing or two about replacing Touch Pro screens. Despite what the shop guys say i suspect that my screen is not compaitble with my Touch Pro which is originally a UK Vodafone but i now live in Canada and got the new LCD from the States. The person who sold me the LCD said it was compatible with all Touch Pros & Diamonds, but then he would say that wouldnt he!
My options are either buy another LCD and hope that does the trick or bite the bullet and get a new crappy canadian contract and a new handset. please help me ive tried the search and cant find anything that helps me and im desperate for a solution!
Cheers
Its a LCD issue what you got, my guess is that the person at the store either gave you a faulty one or its a duplicate lcd,also cleaning the LCD connector with alcohol would be a good idea.Its very rare that in the Diamond/Touch Pro category the connector to get damaged.
My screen cracked this weekend on my AT&T HOX. The LCD appears to be fine, but, from everything I've read, it will need to be replaced too. Does anyone have a recommendation of someone to buy the LCD/Screen Digitizer from? There are a ton of choices out there, but I want to make sure I get a screen that will be comparable to what I have now.
Thanks
Hey everyone, here's the deal, I'm trying to figure out if there is anyway to lock my TAB2 screen. I do tattoos and have a lot of friends email me or give me art work on memory cards. Most of the time I need to do some kind of changing to the design, so I usually trace it. I used to use an old HP mini for this but it has finally gone to the great beyond.
So my question is is there any way, shape, or form to use the tablet for tracing? I wanna think an old Acer I had would lock but I think it was a factory lock switch on the top. I really need a way for this to work, I'd hate to have to buy a new laptop when I already have the tablet for travel and desk top for home. I guess if there is no way to do this I could pipe it into an old 19" LCD TV I have.
Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
Hi Guys,
First post so go easy. Lurked the boards for a while now but only just registered. Hoping some one can help me out a little here, as I'm at my witts end now.
So I bought my xoom (MZ604..?) back in february second hand for £125 posted, it's a the 10.1" version and it's running android ICS. I bought it as i love my Samsung galaxy tab 7 but i think it lacks the screen size and the xoom seemed like a great price for a larger equivalent. I used it pretty much every day and it was awesome, never had any problems with it until...
My son decided to kick it off my lap onto the granite fireplace. The screen instantly went black and just didn't do anything. I could see a faint bbacklight on inside so I assumed it was the LCD panel that was broke, i could still here notifications and if i swiped in the right place i could also hear the tablet unlocking so the digitizer was ok too. I bought a water damaged xoom off ebay and harvested the screen to try and replace it and that wen ok, except i still had the same problem so I assumed that screen was broken too, oh well spares and repairs doesn't always work out lol...
So I bought a brand new LCD panel and fitted that yesterday, and it STILL won't work. However, the issue i now have is it won't turn on at all. I've taken it apart and put it back together multiple times to make sure it's all gone back in the right place etc. It's also charging ok, i put it on the dock and the light goes white, and then green after a while.
I'm at a loss here, as the new screen and xoom cost me nearly £100 so it's not really worth me paying any more as it's begining to seem like an endless pit of money.
TLDR:
Bought xoom
Son dropped xoom
Screen went black but tablet still worked
Bought 3nd hand xoom and swapped lcds
No joy with that
Bought brand new screen
charges but won't turn on now
Hoping someone on here can help me, i really don't want to throw it away as it's a fantastic device, but at the same time i can't keep plowing money into it if it won't work.
Thanks guys,
Uv.
Hi all,
About a month ago, I dropped my Asus Memo FHD 10. It only looked like it cracked the screen in the bottom corner where it hit the ground, but it seems there is some other internal weirdness going on. Anyway, I bought a new one and was wondering how hard it was to open them up and pull the drive out of the old one and stick it in the new one? Is that even possible? Would it just boot up since the hardware should essentially be the same? Just the old one was already rooted and I had everything setup the way I like it. Hate to have to go through all that again. Any help or tips would be appreciated. -Thanks-
