[Q] Is Star N9330 Digitizer compatible with ZUUM N9330 Cell Phone? - General Questions and Answers

Is Star N9330 Digitizer compatible with ZUUM N9330 Cell Phone?
Hi guys, I purchased a cell phone on Ebay that works perfectly, but the protective glass is broken. I was hoping to purchase the repair part, and fix it. Only problem is that I have not been able to find replacement Glass/Digitizer for my model in particular.
However, after some research, I found a cell phone that looks exactly the same as my phone. Going by the specs, it even has the same screen dimensions. But from what I have read, same dimensions is no guarantee of compatibility. I am posting pictures of my Zuum N9330 (broken, and when is new), and pictures of similar Star N9330 phone. Also a picture of the Star N9330 glass/Digitizer..
My Zuum phone is MT6589.
The posted description for the candidate Glass/Digitizer is: "5.5 inch Star N9330 Original Touch Screen Digitizer/Replacement for N9330 mtk6577 5.5" Touch Panel"
I thought that a possible solution is to purchase it and connect digitizer to phone just to test response. If it works, good. If it doesn't, then detach glass form digitizer, and use only the glass.
Please help with suggestions or comments.
Thank you guys.

Well, I think I found the final answer to my own question. After much Internet search I found a clue on one of the digitizers selling on the Internet. The Information posted is the following:
"Original Star N9389 Front Panel Touch Glass Lens Digitizer Screen Blue for 5.5 inch N9330 FWVGA 854*480 Phone FREE SHIPPING"
The webpage is on Ali Express website. I found it using "digitizer star n9330" as key words on the Bing search engine, to view all images that Bing displays.
This item is no longer available, but the information was valuable.
My last doubt had to do with the screen resolution, and this web page refers to the specific screen resolution of my Zuum cell phone.
I installed the AnTuTu tester application and found out that my LCD resolution is 480 x 854. Therefore, I conclude that both parts must be compatible, or the same.
I'm no expert on cell phone displays, but my guess is that the resolution of the LCD is probably much higher than the resolution of the digitizer. Since the tolerance for touch location on LCD screen does not have to be super accurate. But the fact that the info posted mentions my specific LCD resolution is an additional reason to conclude that both parts are the same.

Malta w/ IPS

Looks like the Malta is coming out w/ a IPS Tegra2 tablet.
http://armdevices.net/2011/02/15/malata-releases-new-tegra2-tablets/
Looks like that has the screen we've all been looking for. hope it will fit in my gtablet.
It's not a Tegra 2 - it's Cortex based, problem similar to what SmartQ is coming out with.
That IPS screen is 4:3, not 16:9 - it's the same as my R10 and will not fit into our GTAB.

Would be nice if that screen can work with our g tablets... Does seem it uses the same dock.
The info sheet says:
- dual cortex A9 processor 1 ghz (though not Tegra 2)
- 1GB DDR2 (very nice)
- Front 1.3 MP camera & Rear 5 MP camera (also nice)
- GPS (nice, but already have external GPS)
- 10" 1280x800 screen with wide viewing angles. (Very nice)
Roebeet you sure, that screen dosen't look 4:3 to me. I think you looking at the one they show at the end (iPadish one).
I think the IPS one is that last one (about 6:20). That's the 4:3 device - I don't think the other two are IPS. But I could be wrong.
I noticed one of them has light-up buttons - that's pretty sweet. Also, that IPS screen is a dual Cortex (Tegra, I assume?).

Beet you may want to double check, looks like 16:9 to me. The spoke at begining that they were using a better screen. I sure hope this will fit our tablets. I got my friend to convert over, he loves this forum, thanks for your help!

The first two are 16:9 and might fit the GTAB - whether or not the angles are better remains to be seen (it does look look that way however, going on the video).
I get the impression that the LCD's must have been the biggest complaint with their first gen devices, since viewing angles and screen quality are being addressed this year. That's great!

The first device was the current g tablet, from what I could gather. The second has the new improved screen, he mentioned it had a better screen than the third device (iPad look-a-like). I don't know if it IPS or what, but it look like a much nicer screen.

I second that. Even when he moved the tablets around you could still see what was on the screen! IPS or not, I will take that any day over the crap we have
thanks for the info, hope that some retailers will just sell the screen.. I guess that buying a new screen is still cheaper than buying a new terga 2 tablet like A10. I was thinking about pre-order the A10. Now, I can wait a little bit longer.. Save a few hundred bucks for the google IO conference...
The new model has a very similar specs to Xoom (all kinds of sensors, camera, etc), just wondering how much will it cost? 600+?
Did anyone else notice that he said the new tablet has 10 point multi-touch? That is cool, but I don't see needing more than 4 or 6.

It probably doesn't cost much more to put in 10 points then it does 4 points so its nice to have for bragging rights I guess.
10 points may be useful in the future. there are some rumors that apple is going to use more different gesture to control more screen actions such as turn on/off device, etc. (read it from Engagdet).. How's about playing a real panio program, or guitar.. it would be nice to have more touch points at the same time.. right? just a thought..

[Q] Dusty/Unclean screen.

Well, I got an invite last week and ended up buying a One+ but now that I have it in my hand and I saw the screen and compared it to my Nexus 5 on FULL Brightness, the screen on the One+ looks grainy. Like there is a micro layer of dust on the screen making it uncrisp and unsharp. Its no as bright and Vibrant as the Nexus 5 is. Is this a hardware issue? It always looks like there is dust on it when its perfectly clear...
Anyone having this issue with the device as well? What are the possible solutions for this? I did contact the CS so lets see what they say...
Nexus5 has Full-HD on a 5" screen, pushing it to 445dpi while Oneplus has the same resolution on a 5.5" screen resulting in 401dpi.
Especially close-up you will see that your OPO's screen looks less "real" and more computer-screenish. Comparing it to other phones (including my GS3) makes it look very beautiful so it's rather relative.
I do hope that is the cause of your issue and not a real physical layer of dust.

[Q] Making my own case for Huawei y200

So i broke the lcd and touchscreen on huawei y200 , and i want to repair it.
Huawei y200 has 3.5 inch lcd and touchscreen , is it posible to add 4 or 4,5 inches , and will it funciton if i find the right lcd and touchscreen that has the same connector as on the phone itself, and i want to make my own enclousre for him with a steel plate.
So if it work il make a bigger enclousure ,that will have 4 or 4.5 inch screen.
Info : Huawei original screen is 320 x 480 pixels, 3.5 inches (~165 ppi pixel density)
Hi. If your phone is still disassembled could you please make some pictures (as close as possible) of the parts/are around the connector for the touch. I have one Huawei Y200 with broken touch, but seems someone before me also has do some soldering there and now probably 2 components are missing. I need to find them and to repair it.
Here it is the pictures of my phone with markings of the missing parts https://7f020756c0196483ec34f0310fe6c795263a2e5c.googledrive.com/host/0B2QjEYFkNvr2b2RMMW53aENoWlk/

General Not a fan of this phone

So this is probably the worst display I have seen in a phone in years.
Little back story here. Right now I have 2 phones, one is up for sale on Swappa (OnePlus 9 Pro) which is a long story on why I'm selling it, and my temporary daily driver is a Motorola Power 2021. I got Moto because the 9Pro was unusable at the time and I needed something quick and cheap to hold me over until I figured out a long-term solution. Yea, 1st world issues here. lol
Well, once I fired up the Moto Power, I absolutely loved it but it just wasn't powerful enough and I knew I needed a bit more memory and a slightly faster CPU. So when the Edge was announced, I thought, well hell, I'll sell the 9Pro and grab an Edge. This would leave my Power as a backup to me and my family.
Anyway, I unboxed the Edge, powered it one and began the setup. About 30 seconds into the setup I realized the display is worse than the $200 Power. Heh. Screw this I'm returning the phone.
So what's wrong with the display? First of all the off-axis is horrid. Anything over 20 degrees, it dims out and the colors shift. On-axis, I see nothing but a halo effect that was the norm of LCD displays from 2010, like the OG droid, which gave me a headache.
I really wanted to like this phone, and I think I would have if it wasn't for the display. I didn't get a chance to mess with it before purchase, so there is that. I wouldn't have bought it if I had hands-on with it first.
So not sure where I'm going from here. I guess unlist my 9pro and deal with it's issues until they fix their crappy firmware or maybe a Pixel 5a, but I'm old and need a larger display. Maybe another Moto like the the G Stylus or the Edge 2020. I just know I will be window shopping next time.
I just wanted to share my experience. I hope everyone enjoys this device, it's just not for me.
Cheers!
Thanks for your input. That's what was worrying me, was the display. I think I'll look else where.
If anyone has any specific questions regarding the display, or anything where it doesn't require inserting a SIM, let me know. I'm still waiting to get confirmation from Motorola about returning the device, so I have time to do testing for those who are curious.
I have one question for anyone out there that can answer, as I'm not very knowledgeable on display technologies that aren't AMOLED...
The comparison chart on Motorola's website show the following for display technologies:
Motorola Edge (2021) - LCD, 8-bit, 144Hz refresh rate, Up to 576Hz touch latency
The Cheap Moto G Power (2021) - Simply says: IPS
and then the two phones I'm interested in, the Stylus and the One 5G Ace both indicate LTPS displays.
Okay so I know that the LCD display the Edge has; my eyes are not fond of.
The Moto G Power has IPS, I feel is quite nice. It's not AMOLED, and when turned sideways while wearing polarized glasses, of course turns the display black.
What's up with LTPS??! I've never heard of this technology before. Is this better or worse than LCD and or IPS?
Thanks!
Liking mine
Screen is IPS and the viewing angle is like One Ace
144Hz rate doesn't have much benefit due to LCD/IPS response time
Set to automatic is the best bet

LTPS is Low-Temperature PolySilicon. A substrate the LCD is manufactured onto. It is still an IPS LCD screen, just manufactured using a different process that also has the benefit of making it easier to create LCDs with a higher pixel density. It also improves the display's power consumption over older IPS LCDs.
The screen on my Edge 2021 is just like the screen on my previous phones that use IPS LCDs, be it LTPS or not. If the Edge screen bothers you but other IPS LCD displays do not, then I think it's your device that is the problem and not the technology itself.
I'm extremely flicker sensitive and avoid using AMOLED screens. The Edge's screen is nice for me to look at.

Looking for an affordable pixel 4a (4G) replacement display

So, I have recently bought a used (and abused looks like) Pixel 4a and the display on that phone is pretty much dead, but the rest of the phone is okay.
Ideally, I'd like to repair and use it, so I need a replacement display.
In the past I've had good luck with Ali-express displays that have some minor defects, like a dead pixel or two but it doesn't seem like those exist for this model, or at least not yet.
I'd love to save a few if I can find a display of lesser quality or a used one so does anyone have any suggestions?
Also, warranty repair is not really an option as I live in a country where Google doesn't officially sell pixels. I had this one imported from the UK and quite frankly I have no idea of the history of it.

Thanks for the reply. I've considered ifixit, especially in light of recent announcements but unfortunately they don't have these from their EU store and they don't ship outside of the USA. I've thought about shipping by proxy but at that point it'll be more expensive than ordering a brand new display from China.
