Forget about it guys. If you cold find one, it would most likely cost more then a slightly used XDA
yeah .... and cost is $330 ????.

Today I had the following strange thing:
My XDA was in my cradle and everything worked fine in the morning.
At one moment I looked at my XDA and saw the screen was totally scrambled. All horizontal and vertical lines over the screen. You are not able to see what the screen should display.
Has anybody ever seen this. Is the screen broken?
I already tried a soft reset and a hard reset.
I updated my XDA to ROM 4.00.11 withou any problems about 2 months ago.
Damn I hate this!!!! Any help will be appreciated.
Rogierh, I have seen this before. The only way I was able to get my XDA working was to get it replaced by o2. However I have never tried to replace the screen. This seems to be a problem with XDAs. I have now had 5 XDAs and all of them died with the screen thing.

Thanks for your reply.
I bought my XDA second hand, so don't have any warenty.
Think I am screwed!!!
Rogierh, if you hunt about on the forums here you will find loads of info on broken screens. You can replace them fairly cheaply and easily. So you may be ok. If you do go down this route can you let me know how it goes (I have 4 XDAs with broken screens right now).
Gil.
How much do you want for them?
That sounds like you know were, how and for what you can repair them.
Please let me know too
Sorry I dont know, just thought you might want to get rid of them.
Hi Rogierh,
Replacement screens are terribly expensive. 199 dollars at pdasmart.com. Don't know if they come any cheaper. Check http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=639&highlight= for info on replacing the screen.[/url]
Hey everyone. i got a sgs2 3 hours ago and ive noticed this funny bit in the top right section of the screen, should i take back to the shop tomorrow. damned it! didnt show in screen shots........ what it is is a sort of scribble pattern, about an inch squared in size...... it looks to be under the glass but it has no effect to the phone at all.
If it doesn't show in screenshots then it's definitely physical. If you've literally only just got it then I'd take it straight back to the shop and get a replacement.
Yeah thats what i rekon... Its for certain not on the outside of the screen thats for sure! Jeez it was a replacement for my faulty sgs1! Hope they replace it

You got a SGS2 as a replacement for a SGS1? Nice!
Good luck and I'm sure they will replace it for you.
yeah they are replacing it onmonday, cant get permission until then from samsung but shop staff said for sure there was a fault and took a pic, funny thing is is that its kinda fading
was replaced today, no problems. Screen has no issue! rooted and deleted crappy Vodafone aussie apps

+1 The green camera issue plagues alot of users and it's hardware all the way. You'd be bigger then, well, the big guy if you posted a fix for the camera..
Thanks for support.
I don't understand what the problem with the camera is. Do you have some details to give me ? or a video of the issue ?

Ok i see, but i can't fix that because i don't have the issue on my tab...
if you want i can make a short movie how you can disassembly the camera...
Hi, great video and great timing, my screen cracked yesterday after a "screen first landing from my bed". I already ordered a replacement one and your video gave me great hints on how to dismantle it, however I'm still wondering if anything else is needed to put it back together with the new one. Does the screen comes with some kind of glue on the sides? Any tape that I need to take in consideration? or it should just snap back in place?
Thanks for doing this tutorial and I would appreciate anyone who can help me with these questions.

The video says not available in my country. I am in germany. I would love a nice video on how to take this beast apart and try to fix the camera issue. I press on it and it seems to work but only if I press down hard so maybe something got dissconnected.
Or hell find a place that will fix it, I cant send it to ASUS because of the unlock thing and because I dropped it recentlly but no other damage was done to the tablet though
now just some scratches

TRY ON EBAY I BOUGHT ALREADY AND WAITING FOR THE DIGITAL TOUCH SCREEN ALSO
search for "TF201 DIGITIZER" YOU WILL FIND A LOT
hope i help you
I'm aware that they have them on Ebay, dozens of them, but every one that I have seen bought has a screwed up X-axis.
When you install yours make sure to test it BEFORE you take it down.

I think he means to test it before you permanently mount it.
There doesn't seem to be any way to remove a cracked digitizer from the mouning bezel without destroying it. Even though your glass may currently be cracked, I'm sure it still works at least. If you remove (and destoy) your digitizer glass, you won't want to discover that your replacement has the left and right axis reversed.
Disconnect the ribbon cable for existing (cracked) digizer glass. Connect the new digitizer glass. Boot your prime. Make certain that the new glass is the right model and the left/right is correct.
Even easier than that. Compare the rev numbers of the replacment digizier and the existing one. If they are different revs, you'll be hosed.
hi guys,

How much of it isn't working? And is it just unresponsive or is the display out as well?

So is it just a strip of the screen?
If you really really wanna be able to get it unlocked, Download the correct version of clockwork mod for our phone one that's not touch, has to use the volume rockers and fresh install the rom, Or as a matter of fact, Just boot into whatever recovery you have and clear data/factoryreset, that'll get rid of your lock pin
Hello from me too!
I have a strip on my touch screen that doesn't work. It's right where the Search button and Install on Play Store is and Clear on the Phone notifications, too.
It had the stock rom, I have replaced the screen with the digitizer when it fell down. It worked after that. I had to unscrew the phone one more time because my LCD was touching the screen and the phone had gone mad. After that, and a couple of days later, I noticed that the strip didn't work anymore. Today I finally flashed a new rom (King Cobra 3d) and nothing's changed so I figured it might be a hardware problem...
What's your opinion?
Thank you!

Its the hardware. and your carrier should change it at no cost. (Sprint)

ive had the top bar just under my notification bar non working for a few months now, and its starting to pi$$ me off
I've replaced my digitizer twice myself. I got a cheaper one the first time, and figure that's what I get for trying to go on the cheap. (I was out of warranty). Sorry to say it but it could be that again.

I think I don't have a warranty because I've changed it myself. It's my fault...
I think I'll buy a new one... I unscrewed it a while ago so I could see if sth had been misplaced or if the digitizer had scratches or sth like that.
I saw that the ribbon's top had been ripped off right where it bends on top of the LCD... Don't know if that's the problem...
p.s. I live in Greece. My carrier is Cosmote. We don't have Sprint here...
Yep, if the ribbon cable is ripped, that would be your problem. Don't go too cheap on your replacement. Good luck!

I wonder why is there only one part of the touch that doesn't work if the ribbon is like that, in the bending spot...
thank you! i'll try it as soon as i can and i'll get back!
If i buy a new one from Amazon will it be allright? It costs around 10 pounds... The other one that i've changed and now it has a problem i've bought it for 60 euros from a local store here in Greece...

The last one I got from Amazon is the one I'm using now (about a month old), and spent $20 US on it, which was NOT the cheapest of them. Not knowing the exchange rate right off hand, would venture to say the one you're speaking of is not a "cheap" one. So go for it. Just take your time replacing it and be careful with ALL the ribbon cables. Good luck!
Thought I'd share. May be useful to some who have had an unfortunate event...
I have not yet ordered from them, but will be soon. And I will report back with a review.
Until then... enjoy..

That's some pretty impressive profit margins, since you can buy the screen+ digitizer for about 3/5 that price on Alibaba.
Nice to see that if someone breaks their charging port it can be fixed for under 10 bucks... Nice one LG if only their software was on track with their hardware.
This is not sarcasm at all btw I am genuinely happy to see that I don't need to be worried bout my charging port.
So, my earpiece isn't working. If I wanted to order the part, would I need to get a whole screen with it?
Interesting. Hope someone can help clarify for me. My OG has a strip across the lower screen that doesn't respond to touch. Obviously a hardware issue. Do you guys think replacing the digitizer would fix it?

I had a strip across my screen when I had an Atrix 4G, and replacing the digitizer fixed it. It should fix yours too.
Sadly, E970 parts seem to be mostly out of stock.
Anyone know if a E975 digitizer/screen + front housing is compatible with a E970 phone?
anywhere a back replacement available coz i got a hairline crack on the back glass ;( so probably need a battery replacement cover i guess and cudnt find it !

yea, just noticed the minuet size differences (external).
I wonder what the physical "internal" display sizes are.
At this point, I'm looking for a "donor" phone (one with a dead mobo)
