Ok heres the situation.
I had broken the sim card holder on my phone and it wasn't able to get repaired so I figured I'd buy another phone on ebay that had a busted screen and I would just switch the mother boards around.
I ended up getting the phone and heres the problem.
My motherboard, the one with the broken sim tray works fine with the broken screen but when I try the new motherboard with my good screen phone it doesn't work.
What it does is it takes about 15 minutes to boot from the samsung screen and then it just freezes at the unlock screen where <I am not able to slide. The touch screen doesn'tm work.
Any ideas people? Ican touch the home key etc and they light up but thats about it.

Sounds like the digitizer isn't recognizing the touch. Double check the 4 connections. There may also be a problem with the circuit board you purchased - perhaps there was more at fault than just the busted screen (waterdamage?).

Are the screen revisions the same? There's a rev 6.0, 6.1 and 6.2 for the Infuse. A mismatch might be the issue.

I recently got a touch pro of a friend with a damaged screen that didn't turn on but the touch screen was responsive. Apparently he sat on it and the screen broke.
I then acquired it and replaced the LCD screen and i turned it on but all it shows is a blank black screen with the backlight on. I was tapping while it booted up and it was making that beep noise so i know the touch screen works. What do i do now.

if the lcd is damaged and you only replaced the digitizer then that wont solve the problem, the digitizer just sits ontop of the lcd and recognizes your touches, hence why it mite know that your touching the screen but the screen is still blank

I replaced the LCD along with the digitalizer. Tats what i meant.
Sounds like either the new screen is inop on fit (fraid you need another to test, then send the first back as faulty), or the fault is not the LCD itself.
Possibily its the wrong screen, or its not installed correctly, or you damaged either the screen or the controller when installing.
I'm afraid you dont have many options - take it apart & rebuild to ensure correct parts & fitment, spend £££ on alternative parts to see whats broken (or serious £££ on test equipment!), send it off for repair or give up!
I'd go for option 1 first
If your friend sat on it hard enough to break the screen, i'd be looking for any damage / cracking to the boards / ribon cable mounts and be looking very carefully at the mountings of any IC chips. Incedently, when (s)he sat on it, did the screen work at all? and was it 100% working before they did?
Okay thanks for the replies. I just bought a flex cable where the slider thing is because the old one looked a bit old and flexed out and on inspection of the old screen i found a tiny rip on the screen's flex cable too. I wait for my cable and see if it works and if it doesn't then i'll sent the screen back as faulty and get a new one and if that doesn't work then I'll give up and sell it again
hi
sorry to wake up an old thread.
so what's your solution/conclusion?
is it the flex, or the LCD that broke?
i have the same problem right now.
thanks
was mainboard
Greetings!
Today my phone dropped of the desk and closed...i powered it on again vibration was working but screen was black!I tried my old lcd same thing...
For what part should i search t find or it's pointless...??
probably a hardware problem,the clue that the software works that it vibtrates,ry and buy a new scren or go to a shop to fix it
I've change screen i tried my old one(touch(digitizer) problem)..so i think this ( cgi.ebay.co.uk/Keypad-PCB-Flex-Cable-HTC-TOUCH-PRO-T7272-/320597490986?pt=UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item4aa5197d2a ) will solve the problem...
PS: Cant post link cause of forum restrictions.
Hello Dimgr
I lost my Touch Pro last month ( MB gave up) other part are perfectly working. As HTC service center said MB is gone i got courage to look inside deeply.
Therefore i can can the link is NaviCap assembly which is noway handles screen.
What i can guess i could be BD Slide
I though it would be that cause the screen connects with navikey.My phone hit the floor with the screen and keyboard was on!(i cant explain it sorry for my bad english :/) Any other suggestions??I dont want to rip my phone .
Just one day my TP stopped responding to touch, everything else working.
After few days screen went black, but phone was starting Navi key were glowing while charging, even phone was getting detected by PC.
I gave my TP to HTC service center they said Mother Board has gone & it was costing almost a new phone.
So i decided to sale the parts.
I sold Navi key to one of member on this forum only & its working perfectly, this confirms my doubt that Navi key is not the bug in your case as well.
Three things could have happened.
1. The best scenario is the jolt from the drop just dislodged the ribbon cable connecting to the screen. Resolution: Reseat ribbon cable on screen and on body of the phone (requires to open the phone)
2. The screen simple is busted and needs to be replaced.
3. The motherboard got busted and needs to be replaced.
1. The phone is open i even tried another screen all ribbon cables are checked :/
2. The screen seems to be ok... I dont think that both screes are faulty!!!
3.R.I.P. Htc touch pro...
My situation was same & HTC service center concluded that motherboard is gone.
So i believe your motherboard is also gone & this means there something which stops working after physical.
Because after my phone stopped responding to Touch i gave some shock with a hope that it may help in case of loose connection, but next day screen gone black.
Hey,
I accidently dropped my phone in water a couple of days ago. The backlight doesnt work. Under a really bright light i can see the lock screen and it still functions. Is it possible to replace just the backlight? or what should i do? I dont believe this would be covered from motorola and I live in canada got the phone shipped from the states.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
James
I'm guessing you might need a new screen/display. Perhaps do a search and find a repair place you can ship it and get an estimate? I know HTC offers such repairs dirctly (ship the phone, they call you with an estimate). I'd bet Moto does as well if you're not comfortable with 3rd party repair.

I have the same problem right now except mine was not dropped in water. In a bright light I can see the lockscreen and also could see the emergency dialer tonight but the keyboard was not reacting on certain buttons either. One screen said to unlock enter your gmail account info,I tried to enter my name and the period symbol(.) was not working for me. I'm thinking maybe the LCD screen needs replaced or the ribbon cable,IDK. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Edit: Essentially I finally got logged into the phone and the keys were working fine,the screen was still dim so I turned the brightness all the way up and turned off automatic backlight. I replaced the LCD screen and digitizer and now the phone is not starting for me. I'm about to replace the Flex Ribbon Cable inside the phone and see if this corrects the problem. Right now i cant get the phone to start up so I'm thinking the ribbon cable is disconnected somewhere because it hooks to the motherboard and the LCD or the motherboard is fried. IDK,I'll let everybody know what happens with this project.

What happen to letting everyone know? Were you ever able to get it going? Was it the flex cable? How did you get the LCD working.
Replaced the flex ribbon cable and it still didnt help anything. Guess its just the phone. I trashed the phone a while ago anyways and am currently running a rooted Droid 4

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
Hi guys,
so i recently broke the screen of my OPO
I bought a screen replacement with frame on ebay.
I tried to replace it myself, one thing i did bad was brake the antenna but i bought a new one
So the screen that i bought worked fine it booted up and touch was working etc. However, when my new antenna came i opened it back up and to put the antenna in.
and now when i boot up the phone the display doesnt work, the lights are powered on at the bottom but the display is black.
I tried disconnecting and reconnecting things and at one point the screen came back but went away again.
So i tried reconnecting each thing one by one and testing the screen as i go a long and the screen was working at a few points but even half assembled the screen doesn't display anything but it is powered on,
