thanks in advance for your support.

bubble in the LCD
can any body help in this regard???
will be obliged.

CHeck the quality of the scratch guard...the bubble is just an air bubble...remove the existing film..wipe out with Iso Propyl Alcohol and reapply a new scratch guard..with proper care and as per the instructions given as how to apply..

its just an air bubble. you need something soft like a piece of card board which wont leave scratches on the screen protector and gently push it in the direction where it can escape out (more like force the thing out but not too hard on the screen or else you'll end up having scratches). Tried and tested..

Just use a Credit Card for it.

bubble in the LCD
Thanks a bunch for all your replies, infact its in the LCD glass not in between glass & guard.....as I havent applied new guard or protector yet because of this bubble. nothing is happening if i try to move this thing from credit card or any thing. its just expands & comes back to its size, about an inch hollow.

I have the same thing and the same situation also after i replace the screen protector. But its more like a patch of oil than bubble. The problem is actually the LCD, there are few layers within the LCD itself, and you cant remove it.
Sometimes it will be there, sometimes not. I checked with the service centre, they can replace the LCD but its not really necessary. It wont affect operations. The cause they say is most likely heat / sunlight.

Screen replacement experience's ?

Evening all.
So my beloved DHD needs the screen and digitizer replacing. Ive done the necessary reading/ searching and ive also located what appears to be a decent replacement.
Here is the thing.......
Has anyone successfully managed to do the replacement and keep the " Home, menu, back, search " buttons lighting up post screen replacement ? If so i would really appreciate some pointers on how you did this.
Thanks in advance

i replaced a digitizer / display on my dhd once and did the same on some Hd2 before.
On DHD its really difficult to replace the screen / digitizer. You most likely damage the plastic frame around the screen and indeed the arrangement of the Leds are no easy too, but not too hard to maintain. I wouldnt change the screen of anyone others DHD, just my own.

Yes, ive read that the replacement process is somewhat fiddly / tricky and no i would'nt do it for anyone else either. Im going for a pre assembeled screen / digitizer.

digitalizer is glued on lcd and lcd is glued on the middle metal plate, removing lcd from the plate requires heating it and it sure isn't fun, even after heating it it is still hard to remove without damaging the plastic frame, if i were you i would take it to a service shop with already bought part and paied them to change it, trust me it is not worth the nerves and the time

I'm a very handy guy and I accidentally tore a ribbon cable separating the pieces glued together. It's very hard, worth paying someone.

yes, but it was a pain, hold the pieces in place with double stick tape and be careful not to bend them!

Yup I successfully managed to replace a digitizer but I'm also a trained phone technician.
The most important thing is to be very careful. You should never have to use force in order to disassemble a phone.
How to get the cracked digitizer off? Simple, use your oven.
* Place the display-module (Chassis, digitizer,LCD) on a tray, make sure the plastic parts don't touch the bottom, so that it doesn't melt.
* Heat the oven to about 80-100 degrees celsius.
* The display should come off pretty easily.
* If you've done it properly, you can use the same adhesive that was one the chassis/frame if not you'll have to purchase some slow drying adhesive and carefully place it around the edges.
* Carefully move the light-guides on the bottom of the screen to the new digitizer. There's a small amount of adhesive on them so don't get any sweat on them. If they don't stick just use a very very, I'm talking pixel size amount of adhesive on it to get it to stick.
That's about it. Thread the flex-cable around the display and use a tweezer to connect it.

[Q] Quick fix for smartphone chipped / small crack glass (not the digitizer or LCD)

I have this phone, only used for VoIP and Dev. Galaxy Nexus.
The glass is like chipped / cracked on the top right, nothing major or problematic, about the size of the camera hole.
I was wondering if I couldn't fill that glass with transparent nail vernish or clear coat car paint, just a drop to make sure no broken glass falls or to prevent it from more cracks ... like when they repair chip on windshields ... I need something none conductive to make sure it doesn't interfer with the digitizer ...
I won't change the glass or digitizer. I would prefer this solution than putting a plastic shield.
Thanks !

So ? Is this just a really bad idea ?

You have to be used with it as long as anything is working. The LCD and touchscreen are glue together with LOCA (Liquid optically clear adhesive) or OCA film. They glued to the frame around the edges of touchscreen. Full LCD assembly may cost around $180 to $200, you don't need to change it unless it's cracked. Separate LCD assembly from the frame may end up of damaging them if you don't have experience.

How to deal with a working peeled screen?

My mate 8 is still working like a champ, but the top and bottom of the screen are peeled and it's very ugly (see the attached photos).
Currently I use a full body cover like this to cover that up. But the problem with those covers is that the auto-brightness doesn't work very well anymore because of the shade on the ambient light sensor.
Is there any solution for this except for replacing the screen and the stupid GLUE trick which might actually make the phone completely useless if not done right?
I was thinking it would be great if there was some sort of black sticker in shape of top and bottom bars where I could stick them on the screen top and bottom to cover this up (like black stickers with the correct shape of sensors).
Anyone?

hey, same problem here.
screen peeled off, but everything works.
i want to replace or glue it, how do i do it?
found online 2 versions of display, just the display and one with frame on.if i get just the display i need to somehow glue it to my existing frame - what do i use? liquid glue (like b-7000 or t-8000 types sold online) or double side tape (seen in a clip replacing a samsung display).
if i get the display with frame i have to move all the phone internals to the new display (battery, camera, electronic boards) - more money and labour.
those of you with experience, please help!
