I realised I posted in the wrong forum with my previous post so here it is in the correct forum - apologies.
LCD Screen
Warning: Images are very high resolution
Part Number: 60H00037-00M
Willing to accept any sensible offer and would prefer a UK sale.
If you're in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee I'm willing to give it to you in person if you want to save postage but it would have to be at a mutually convenient time.
The screen is immaculate - I removed the plastic cover when it arrived in the post but haven't used it at all.
N.B. The part number is very important as I believe there are 3 different types for different versions of the Tytn.
==============================================
I used to wonder how people managed to break their LCD screens so carelessly but now that I'm one of them feel a great sense of pity and sorry for them
Seriously though, I broke my LCD screen the other week and I've been kicking myself since. I went and bought a replacement LCD for it but I couldn't get it working in my phone because I broke a little black component that holds the ribbon cable onto the contacts.
Anyway, now I have a broken phone and a spare LCD screen so I'm going to sell the bits as spares if anyone is interested.
Right now I'm going to sell the LCD screen as I've not decided if I want to break up the phone itself, especially as it still contains all my data
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

Paid $22.00 plus $10 to ship
Accidently stepped on my tablet and now the screen is cracked on the corner. Where can I find a screen replacement and is there a replacement tutorial?
Did you buy the tablet with a credit card? Some cards offer insurance for accidents like yours. You might qualify for a replacement.

A member has reported he same issue before. here is the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894003
And he could not find a replacement screen. I guess that you should contact Viewsonic tech support to see what can they do or how much would they charge you?

i paid with my debit card. (I dont think my debit card gives me those protections)
@tyy10002 thanks for the link
If you cant find one anywhere else i would try a local glass store. A lot can cut to dimensions and maybe they couldd make one to custom fit our screens?

does you debit card have a visa or mc logo on it? (most do these days) If so you have the option of using it as a credit card or atm card even though both will withdraw funds from your bank account and to you it looks the same the two transactions are different. long tory short if you entered a pin at the pos then you're right you probably don't have those protections (I'd still check with your bank) but if you just swiped it and signed like you would with any other card than you should be covered.
I have a Cracked Glass Too!
I have a cracked glass on my GTablet as well. I ordered a replacement LCD screen B101AW06 V.1 10.1" WSVGA GLOSSY LCD SCREEN LED GLOSSY
and found out that I really don't need it now because the actual glass covering the LCD was the issue. So if anyone needs one, I will sell it to you what I paid $50 plus the shipping to you.
After talking to Viewsonic GTab Support, they basically don't have replacement parts that you can order from them. The only way they suggested it could be repaired was if I purchased it new like that damaged in the box, they would replace it. Or, I would have to find a glass company that could possibly make me one. I asked to speak with someone in mgmt and was promised that he would call me back within 48hrs with a real solution, but I haven't heard from anyone yet. So it appears that I am stuck until someone can give me a replacment glass screen solution.
Anyone out there have a better solution to my issue?
I sympathize with you but I think you are doing it wrong...

Help! I really need a glass screen replacement for my G-Tablet...... the new LCD I bought is basically useless because I don't really needed. I need the glass screen!
Well Vhecs, you answered your own question...

Shouldn't be to hard to figure out.
I have a similar problem... accidentally lost my grip, and now there's a crack radiating out from around where the camera is located. Thankfully most of the cracking over the LCD screen consists of large pieces, rather than tiny fragments that would tend to fall out.
Does anyone know if it's practical to try some sort of resin designed to infiltrate glass cracks?
I don't care about a perfect solution, but at least something to diminish the appearance of the cracks and make it less likely for the glass fragments to fall out would be great.

I can't find any info on this, but it looks like it could be tricky to replace. I cracked my glass by dropping it onto stone, still works OK. You can pick up digitisers pretty cheap on ebay (£20 UK) but does anyone know how to replace? I read that they can be glued to the LCD?
Thanks
Google for the fixit website, if someone has done it there will be a tutorial, or you could follow the guide on here to upgrade your sd card....only because you have to take the phone fully apart. You need to check if the lcd is glued or like the iphone 4 resin. If they are a sealed unit you'd be better off getting the lcd/digitizer combo on ebay. trying to separate an lcd from the digitizer is asking for trouble imho.
I have ordered a digitiser, really hope the digitiser is not glued to the LCD, there is a big price difference. I'll let you know how I get on.
I bought a Mozart with wrecked digitizer and also want to repair it. The digitizer is on its way, so in a week i could tell you how difficult or maybe easy it is.
If you are faster, please post your experience.
I found this thread on xda.cn, and it seems that the lcd isnt glued on the digitizer, so lets hope so

I have got my digitiser now, looks brand new. Just need to find the time to replace, might upgrade the SD card at the same time.
Done
I did this with Andy's guide to help: http://lifeinthefastlaneok.wordpres...-7-mozart-sd-card-memory-upgrade/#comment-225
I used this guide to replace my digitiser (the glass) which I smashed. The good news is that the digitiser is not stuck to the LCD at all. I just bought a grade A digitiser off ebay for £20 which was pretty much perfect - glass was perfect with a couple of small marks on the back case, but basically like new.
There were a couple of differences to this guide:
- Had to replace a speaker type thing at the top of the digitiser that was not present on the new one. Came off quite easily, just stuck in.
- Had to remove the USB port of the old case back (if you are replacing that too) but that was just a couple of screws
- You dont have to split the PCB off if doing this, you just take off the black clips to take it apart and then remove the orange ribbon cable, it is a little tricky to get the new one in but OK.
I now have a phone as good as new, I didn't replace the SD at the same time but probably will do at some point when I can stand loosing all my data.
Found time today to replace the digitizer. I also used Andy's videos for instruction. And it's really not that hard. Pretty easy for someones first mobile phone repair.
Well done, I would add for anyone else needing to do this, be very careful not to touch the inside of the digitiser or the LCD when you have it apart! Also have a glasses cloth handy for removing any dust particles just before you put it back together.
I do have one strange thing however - before I had intermittent issues where I could not slide the screen up when locked for 10 seconds or so. No I have a slightly different issue when unlocking - it doesn't always let me press on the right hand 3 numbers on the PIN screen! So it seems the unlocking issue some people have is due to a hardware issue. My digitiser was second hand so I might ask for a replacement, but I can change my pin so that it is not an issue.
My Mozart touch-screen hardly works at all plus my wife's Mozart has a cracked digitizer glass (still working fine).
So silly me I took the plunge and ordered three cheap replacement digitizers via eBay (from Hong Hong). They arrived today and all are s**t useless.
When I opened the box I smelt the rat when I spied the HTC logo on each was blanked out on the outside of the plastic zip-lock bags (with what looked like black felt pen), plus each glass has minor blemishes/scratches. Comparing each with the digitizers I removed from my and my wife's phones, they have a different design of ribbon cable conductor layout plus there are indications the plastic moulding isn't as well finished in a couple of places. Either these are factory rejects or knock-off copies. Lesson learnt :-(
Anyway, I now need to buy genuine HTC parts.
Any pointers toward reliable sources appreciated, thanks.

I have bought some off ebay. The problem is that these are almost always from returned Mozart's which may well have been returned due to non responsive screens, which seems to be a very common problem.
I have had 2 off the same chap now, one is OK but not perfect, the other one didnt work at all.
I would just keep returning them until you get one that works.
Sometimes you will find new combined digitiser/LCD's on ebay too, these would be a better bet but cost more.
Can someone who as changed a screen on this phone using Andys guide, please tell me how easy or hard it was, and how long does it take??
And would be grateful if someone could give me a link to the correct digitizer for this phone....
I am in the UK and have been qouted 50 pounds at a phone shop for the to supply and fit screen...
Did you see my post?

The most tricky thing for me was getting all the dust off the LCD and the digitsier, as soon as you get it apart things start sticking to it like crazy. Have a clean glasses cloth around.
It takes about an hour on your first go. The main thing is to get the orange ribbon cablle in fully, it can be tricky - you need to get a good grip on it (fold it a little) and push it home quite hard, otherwise you get it all back together and find it doesn't work.
I have had 2 dodgy screens off ebay, £50 sounds OK if it is a brand new original HTC screen.
Or just search for 'htc mozart digitiser' on ebayt there are loads.

Thank you for that. A close look at the ones I bought from china I'm sure now are removed from phones with faulty digitizers, then repackaged as new. One of the three had significant dust and dirt on the inside of the digitiser screen. I've requested a refund via PalPal disputes.
I've ordered some digitizers from ecell in the UK. I'm led to believe by them that these are genuine HTC factory supplied spares.

I just replaced my 4th screen (1 broke, 2 dodgy).
This one is perfect - as new condition and works perfectly, my last one was not responsive in some situations e.g. lock screen.
This is the one I got (UK)
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130498971267?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
Of course, your mileage may vary - some are probably good, some not. Replace it, if it doesn't work ask for another, etc.
My new digitizers arrived today from the uk. Horray they are genuine HTC spare parts properly packaged. The downside is they don't include the frame the glass sit in and is adhered to.
So I watched the official HTC Mozart disassembly video on youtube to see how to remove the existing digitizer glass from the frame - got it apart ok after heating the unit to soften the adhesives but it didn't come away entirely cleanly i.e some of the adhesive foam broke away and was left on the underside of the glass.
So... check on eBay and found sellers selling refurbished screen frames ready for a new glass to be attached.
Will update on progress once they arrive.

just ordered my digitiser today... wish me luck...lol

Well I am now buzzing... have just changed my screen at it works perfect.....
£50 they wanted at the shop...it cost me £13....
Just to let you know how easy this is to do........If I can do it, anyone can..
Did anyone find a reliable supply in the end? I just cracked my digitiser so looking to replace it...
--edit--
Also, how much have others paid? Don't want to be ripped off for some sub-standard part.
Hello everybody,
I m trying to replace the digitiser of a HTC Mozart too.
It is really easy to do, even the part where you have to take off the digitiser from the plastic frame.
But I have an issue, it is the second digitiser I am using ( from the same ebay shop ) and the digitiser is working inverted vertically! Really strange but it is like that.
As the mobile phone is started up, when I push on a left buton, it push on a right button ! On the key board, when I press on "P" it press on "A" ( i m using an Azerty layout, I assume it should be "Q" on your layout ).
It is really anyoing of course.
It is the second screen I received from the Ebay shop and same issue, I don't think the problem come from my side, but I just want to ask to you all if somebody have an idea or the same issue once.

Mate, I had the same problem. However it seems no one was able to help me either.
I also purchased a digitizer from Ebay for my Mozart - the exact same inverted issue occurred with me. I wasn't able to find a solution.
I'm in Australia with a T8697 model. The digitizer I received from Ebay had a circle around the windows button at the bottom - This was not on my original screen.
In the end, I purchased a digitizer from an Australian business. Cost double the Ebay digitizer did, so I hope it works... Haven't received it yet, but I'll let you know when I put it in.
What model Mozart do you own?
I'm looking for whole screen bundle (lcd and digitizer) for my atrix but I couldn't able to find it yet. I found few US websites, but I don't think they ship internationally. Do you know a website who sell a whole package?
Also, I also doubt if it is worth to fix atrix in the first place. My USB input is somewhat broken (cannot connect to PC), lcd has dead pixels and digitizer is almost gone. 2 months ago phone get a little water in it so I suspect that is the problem. What do you guys recommend?
If I were you, I'd just buy a cheap used Atrix (like some bricked one) and scavenge the parts.
Yeah actually I thought that but it will be used like my phone and it can cause problems any minute. Besides, even a broken phone is almost the same price as brand new lcd + digitizers. So, if I have to choose, I'd choose to assembly lcd and digitizer by myself since it would be more solid.
