Howdy,
Busted my digitizer and planning on replacing it so anyone got a good listing for one? Im thinking of going with the LCD Digitizer combo to avoid the joy of trying to seperate the 2 and ill probably order a 2nd digitizer to attempt to replace the one on the current LCD in the future for a spare or to sell i just dont want to be with a really busted up screen if i muff up the original in the process.
Ive searched before on the topic but dont recollect any good listings.
Im on VZW if that matters so i got the Rhod500
I had contacted an ebay seller but they couldnt tell me what i needed to know beings they got listings for GSM and CDMA screens and i cant really see what would be the difference.
I plan on doing this as soon as i can get it cause the cracks are starting to irritate me

you may want to get the screen that is for verizon logo on it since if your going to do warranty exchange or insurance claim they may want it having on the phone but it doesnt matter if it is GSM or CDMA since they are both the same screen the only difference is that they have the carrier logo on it. another thing you want to consider is getting the us version not the europe version cuz it has the hole for the face camera which the us verison did not get dont know why but it was dumb in their part.
I found this one you can see:

Hey, I have replaced 2 digitizers for sprint phones. They are in fact stuck down to the LCD which just means you need to be careful. I used a hair dryer to weaken the adhesive before prying off the digitizer.
I ended up having to peel apart the layers of the old digitizer to use the adhesive to hold the new one down to the case.

Can someone help me find a replacement Digitizer?
I bought my phone off of eBay a while back and it had scratches on the screen, now I want a new screen. I thought about getting one from eBay, but someone told me that those were cheaply made and came from China. And that if I tried replacing one myself It could maybe not work correctly or I could get some particles in between the screens.
Is there a place that I can get it repaired?
Also my phone won't charge anymore unless I put it in a certain position...
i got mine from ebay recently. well, i got it for T7373 international version tp2 instead.
what i would advise is, avoid from getting those cheap digitizer. they work sucks with finger. now i only able to use my tp2 with either stylus or fingernail which is seriously terrible.
and i changed it all myself. weirdly is, the digitizer need some glue to glue it to the tp2. a bad experience i had anyway.
sending my set back to my distributor for cleaning up mess soon.
I bought a replacement verizon digitizer last week
https www dot gounlock dot com
Paid $22.00 plus $10 to ship
Alright, so my digitizer is about dead. It used to work if I shook it, etc.
My question is, according to mission:repair, they can replace the digitizer for $110. Should I have them do that, or should I just buy another HD2 off eBay for 200?
From what I've heard, the adhesion between the LCD and digitizer is pretty sticky, so I'm unsure if I should try their service.
So, which path should I choose? >.>
(Also, if you know any tips that may get the digitizer to work again, please let me know, even though I've tried most of them from what I've read, I think)

Get the digitizer and glass combo together. It's a real ***** to do it part by part and from what I have read causes so many other problems. Just get the combo together and put it in.
GEt a HD2 for $200
Hi
I have HTC Touch Pro 2 and today I broke its screen, it have 3 cracks on it now but strange touch screen is completely working without any problems. I also had screen protector on.
Now what do I have to do? Do I have to replace complete screen or I think I will just need to replace the screen digitizer?
Please guide so I can order it from ebay or if you could recommend any store from where I can buy quality products.
Thanks
Yep, been there done that. You have broken the digitizer glass most likely. I suggest that you get a LCD&Digitizer replacement from ebay like this one.

Do some shopping around I only paid ~$12 for my replacement.
Learn from my mistakes and get the set. It is next to impossible to separate the lcd and digitizer. You can usually swap around the various kinds of lcds too. On my sprint tp2 I installed a at&t tilt screen with no issues.
It is not to bad of a job to replace, but the first time is a little nerve racking as you have to do a total tear down. There are videos on the tear down around online. If you live near Seattle WA, I can give you a hand.

Hi
Thanks, thats what I thought too, so your personal experience says its impossible to separate LCD and digitizer.. thats too sad as it can save me some money but I wonder why they are selling so many digitizers alone all over internet, and that is just for $8 to $10 with delivery.....
So finally you replaced both LCD+Digitizer or you were you able to replace just the digitizer?
and I live in Pakistan so I could only use help here or on any IM
Impossible, no. You will go through probably a dozen before you get to a point where you could separate them 50-75% of the time successfully. You will spend way less money if you get a screen set, or a phone with a bad board/esn number to pull parts from. There is an adhesive between the lcd and the digitizer (usually along the edge). The lcd does not have a protective glass layer, and it is sooooo easy to pull the lcd coating right off the lcd base it is not funny. You could tear apart the one you have as a free learning experience. It is not going to cost you anything but your time.

Well if its just that then its a piece of cake for me too, Im a technical person.... So what Im going todo is to open my mobile first before ordering and try to separate the digitizer from the screen and if I was successful then I will just order the digitizer and if I was not then I will order a complete screen set like the one you mentioned in your link.
What is this 1st Generation screen and 2nd generation screen... I have the international unlock version of TP2... which one do I order?

No idea.
I plan on buying a new digitizer to replace the one on my phone since I manged to scratch it just before my screen protector arrived (there was a backlog of undelivered parcels at my post office, my screen protector should have been there BEFORE my phone -.-)
I'm pretty comfortable with the process of replacing the digitizer, but I've got a quick question (maybe not so quick to be honest.)
We should have all seen (and most likely drooled over) the new colours being released, I was wondering if a digitizer from the US Sprint or Verizon variants of the s3 would fit my uk/international s3? I'd love to get my hands on the silver digitizer and back plate, but I don't want to fork out £200 to find out it doesn't fit!
Is there anyone who could shed some light on this? would carrier specific radios be located on the back of the digitizer or something?
Cheers!
If you buy a new digitiser ..... Don't throw the old one ...I will buy it from you..

Well finally broke my screen on my G3.. only appears that i broke the glass and not lcd/digitzer but from what I'm reading it's all sealed and not worth my time to try to separate?
I found this site that has LCD Screen and Digitizer Assembly with Front Housing (No Small Parts) for $89 which doesn't seem horrible. Just not sure what they mean by no small parts, I'm assuming they're referring to the cameras and motherboards.. Can anyone verify this is my best route? New to fixing phones, worked on plenty of small electronics just not a phone but I'm not near an upgrade and actually like this phone so replacing isn't an option.
Thanks for any help.. the broken section is causing my phone to do some wild things. =o/

No, do not waste your time attempting to separate the glass from the LCD, you WILL break the LCD.
You would come out a little bit cheaper ordering the glass and LCD assembly alone BUT it can be kind of a hassle sticking that part down.
Ordering it with the frame/housing is 100% how I recommend going about the screen repair for a G3 since it comes glued to the frame/housing... it's less of a hassle you'd have to worry about. Just transfer all of the internals to the new frame and you're golden.
However, I will recommend that you order the screen from the link I provided below... as the warranty on this screen will be good for 1 year, plus it's even a little cheaper. They are just currently back ordered until the 7th, but it's well worth it for a 1 year warranty.
Good luck.
