For 70A you are in luck there a place that sell them:

or

for repair you can always try:

You most likely won't be able to replace just the digitizer. You'll need to replace the entire screen. The digitizer is attached to the screen and is almost impossible to detach. I wish they sold the screen when I broke my digitizer back in February. I ended up sending my A70 into Archos and getting 25% off the A43.

Ah, you see, the problem is that when i got my new LCD it did have to touch digitizer, BUT what I cracked is the plastic cover that has the touch reticule on it, and that you cannot find online

My LCD got all cracked up in my pocket so I needed a new LCD.
I ordered the LCD from blackberry8100parts and it got within a week. I installed it today and it works like new. I video tapped parts of me tearing apart my wing to put on youtube.. It's easy do take apart if you take your time with it. I didn't get the plastic opening tool they said it was suppose to come with but I had one at work.. It's not necessary if you just run a small precision flathead around the seams after removing the screws.
Thanks for the link.. they had the cheapest LCD I could find on the net.

defective screen try send it back for new one
I cracked my LCD. I purchased a new one from seller LCD4PDA. I got the screen for $61 shipped after $5 Ebay Coupon. I used the tools and instructions included, and also the Herald/Wing Service Manual to assist in the process. It took a little time, I was being very cautious not to break anything. I would highly recommend disassembling/assembling the phone two times just to get a feel for it first. It's not too hard though, and the screen works great!
sorry to push that older thread, but i also have a cracked TFT-screen. does anybody know where to get a replacement TFT with touchscreen in germany?
or europe with less shipping costs?
thanks in advance!
www.blackberry8100parts.com
these guys are good but i noticed the screen they sent me has developed a dent in the middle where i guess the screen is used the most. like a contour in the middle.
the reason i think its the "type" of screen they sent me is because i haven't had this problem with any other screens that I've had for longer.
i cracked my wing's screen and when it cracked it also cracked the touch screen part does anyone know a good site with reasonable prices?...i was gonna send it to HTC but they asked 150 nd thats way too much
my touchscreen got cracked, i ordered a new digitizer for 12 euros, this was including shipping.
does anyone have experience with replacin the digitizer apart from taking the complete lcd out?
you tube link
i followed this tutorial and it went very easy... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aN6cKRM2F1M
ty, thats the one i used
unfortunately it only replaces the lcd screen and not remove the digitizer from it. But it helped me almost all the way
now that i have my lcdscreen seperated from my digitizer i found out the connector is different so im stuck anyway..

That is just for the digitizer part, not for the whole screen, like how they worded the listing, you can tell because you can see through the screen. most times the digitizer is fine but the lcd below is cracked and has to be replaced

Replacing front display (digitizer?)

Hi there!
I didn't put a screen protector on my TD2 -and over time it has become more scratched than expected. I'd like to replace the front display -I guess that is the one called the digitizer, or?
http://cgi.ebay.com/Touch-Screen-Di...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item4837633bd0
What are the chances for getting an original HTC at ebay?
Did anybody do this replacement with success?
Cheers
No one?
check this out too!!!
more expensive and not a word about oem product!!!
So... oem digitizer with just 19$ .... hmmmm! don't know!!!!
Perhaps this guide can help you.
Hopefully it's not permanently attached to the LCD like the ATT Fuze is. I took my Fuze apart and destroyed the LCD while trying to install a new digitizer. Apparently they use some sort of extremely strong glue between the digitizer and LCD...
Hopefully not.. But I think it's only glued to the frame.. I don't really know what kind of glue to use for the new one though...

Sorry to tell you all that the Digitizer is permanently attached with LCD. I know this because I was drop my D2 and went to service center. They change to front cover (case) which was broken when droped. when I get it back they give me back my old front cover and I notice that the digitizer is stick with over part.....
When I ask the service's counter. They told me that they have to change the new digitizer because it come with whole part.. not saparated.
Sorry for my english....
Hi Guide144, you say that when you got the digitizer back it sticked with the 'over part'. To my ears that sounds like the FRAME and not the LCD? Are you sure that it's also attached to the LCD?

Sorry for lag of my understanding, Yes the digitizer is stick with front frame, not a LCD. In my case, I ask the service to change my front cover because it broke and they change the front cover + digitizer.... because it stick together.
Hope this would clear all out.
Hi guys,
i replaced today the broken digitizer of my topaz.
Got one for $60 from ebay, with a screen (i wasn't sure if it was a screen problem or digitizer so i got both.)
you need to unstick the old one from the housing and attach the new one. i didn't use extra glue/stick , since the old one was left on the casing.
cheers
Thanks mistral82cy! Thanks for sharing -now I feel a little more up to going ahead with the operation
Hi! Could you please tell me how much the service center charged you to get the new cover and digitizer installed?
I've to change mine, as well!
Thanks a lot
I would suggest finding the parts list for the phone and finding out exactly what digitizer is needed then buy one online from somewhere such as e-bay. I did this with my G1 replaced it myself and it worked wonderfully. Research before you buy otherwise you might end up buying the wrong one or a clone which doesnt work as well
I dun it myself, buying one digitizer from ebay, getting the old one out was a little tricky , but appart from that it was easy(and i had to do it again, as i dit not secure it properly and there was dust comming underneath the screen from the sides. Any questions you could ask, but it is pretty straight forward.
pistonripper changed his housing, so he would have also replaced his digitizer, so you might want to check with him

replace digitizer on your own!
Hello everyone!
My digitizer broke last week, because i droped my Diamond!
But don't worry I am a rookie in technical things and I managed it to replace my digitizer on my own.
Don't waste money on repair charge from repairshops! Ok... you loose your garantie but the Cellphone is allready old. The new HD2 is already available!
Just buy the digitizerscreen at ebay... i've paid 60 € and then use this manual:

Now it works like before.

HTC Pure Digitizer or LCD

It's a bit hard to see on the photos but if its new can you not return it? if not then you need to look closely between the digitizer and the screen and see if the damage is just the top layer or the screen, if it is the top layer then just replace your digitizer!

Chill.
Out.
Seriously.
As always this site is a big help. Just ordered the items, and thanks to the guide I'm fairly confident I will pull it off. For me the bottom 2cm's of the screen have shifted about 1cm to the left somehow. The digitizer still works "perfectly" but it's kinda hard to hit the right buttons like that

Digitizer

hi
I have some scratchs on my screen and I am looking for a replacement digtizer.
I found several on ebay,
http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=xp...+screen&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
Have anyone replaced the digitizer or know if this are original?
Thanks!
Did you remove the factory screen protector for some reason and not replace it? Or did your phone not come with a factory screen protector?

Hi
I removed the factory screen protector. when I got a couple of scratches I applied a new protector.
But the few scratches I have are ittitating me!!!!
Hi, I recently changed my digitizer. Put on a black one on my white phone. They are all real, I have not seen any fakes around. I also bought mine off of ebay.
--duplicate--
I wish one of these ebay listings gave a part number or model number for the digitizer... for obvious reasons.

Is this digitizer is the same part i need to change when my screen gets cracked ?
The story is my phone fell down and the screen got cracked and kinda ink appeared around the line of crack..
I was really wandering which part to change since the touch was working fine..

Hey Mezo,
The digitizer is factory glued with the top glass and is considered one piece since you can't separate the two. The LCD is separate from the digitizer. If your LCD is cracked, then your display will be distorted with lines across the screen. If your top glass is cracked, then your digitizer will still work since the digitizer is not as fragile as the top glass. So the question is, is the top glass cracked? Is the LCD display cracked as well? I know your digitizer will still be functioning but you might want to consider buying a new one as for the cracks may be unappealing and annoying.
I simply broke the top glass and I did not like the crack spanning across my screen so I got myself a new one.
If your LCD is damaged then you need to buy a new LCD which is not cheap... (over $100).
@trojjanhorse
the top layer which i touch is functional, so that means i have broken the LCD ?
i appreciate if you have a look on them i attached some pic, i hope they are clear enough since i took them with 3mp cam
thanks for the help in advance, i don't know much about mobile displays

Most likely you have broken the LCD. When dark pixels appear like that, it usually means that you've directly struck the LCD itself and damaged that area.
It was a thin line at first then some Ink started to flow and became bigger the next day.
So its the LCD?
should I fix it at the service center or i can replace it myself?
sent from my x10i that is banging for a 2.1 upgrade. ...
You can, in theory, fix it yourself but it'll be a biatch of a job. Use the X10 undressing post to find out how to actually take it to bits...
Then put the new LCD in.
only issue is finding somewhere that sells them... I don't know if they're a generic 854x480 lcd or what so...
To change LCD is very simple, but to change the digitizer is suicide. You will need to get a new LCD. I would buy one off of ebay and install it myself. I've been fixing phones for 2 years now so I had my share of experience but it may be difficult for you. The black liquid is due to the fact that LCD stands for "Liquid" Crystal Display
Good luck.

digitizer or lcd problem?

My screen is blank but i can't know if it is digitizer or lcd screen problem. I removed digitizer and the screen is still blank.
So the problem is probably with lcd and not with digitizer. Am i wrong?

I know that this is an older thread however I need to know if the LCD & digitizer are fused together or not? If it is similar in construction to new phones like S3's it is something worth knowing.
I unknowingly bought an HTC One XL digitizer only, on eBay. There wasn't any mention that they are fused together making it nearly impossible to separate the digitizer from the LCD. Why they sell them separately without letting people know this is beyond me, when I asked they said "you buy the part then send it to a repair center for them to fix", Erm!!! yeah... ok... moving on
If I don't have to buy both parts I erm don't want to. So There! Sorry about the shoddy sentence structure, etc... I am rushing this
I have since found out that the screen is fused together so don't buy just the digitizer buy both together as one unit. You may find YouTube Videos showing you that it is possible to separate the digitizer from the LCD without damage but most of these are staged repairs. The amount of heat needed to separate the two parts can easily damage the LCD and or other components. One of the YouTube videos showed a "Joe the average consumer" (yeah sure he was) separating the two pieces without using any heat at all. Maybe I missed the part where he sacrificed the baby to some phone deity and other incantations that are needed to separate the two parts successfully. I don't see how he could do it otherwise.
*I am not responsible for any dead babies cracked screens or other erm... stuff like life in jail.

Desire X touch screen replacement

Guys,
Today I dropped my DX (so much to say about Friday the 13th...)
You can see it in the attached picture. I just wanted to ask, will the following replacement work:
http://www.ebay.de/itm/HTC-Desire-X...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item20d2dca972
Thank you in advance!
Few weeks ago, I dropped my DX too, although damage was less. I read about digitizer replacement on HTC devices (in general) and I read it's not that easy as on Samsung devices. One guy tried to replace digitizer and he ended up with broken LCD panel. You can also buy whole module (LCD screen + digitizer) but it's like a roll of a dice - you can get good lcd and you can get bad lcd too. It's a risk. You can send it to local repair centre. I was told it would cost about 100-120€. From then, I knew, I have to live with that broken screen. lol
Found something different:
http://www.parts4repair.com/complete-screen-assembly-with-lgp-for-htc-desire-x-t328e/
Does anybody have experience with that shop? The price is ok, I would even order a new back cover there (because mine is a bit broken, too).
Hard to replace
I've tried to replace the touch screen (only the glass). In eBay it's about 25$ or something like that.
It hard, very hard to replace. I've ended with a broken LCD, because when try to separate the glass from LCD, LCD broke.
For me, it's better to replace the whole screen, not only the glass. I've seen it for 51$ in eBay, but worth it.
Video on how to replace (as you can see, you need a dryer, and big ball, because phone gets VERY hot, and you're the whole time thinking you're going to melt it
.you*tube*.co*m/*watch?v=hzRsLDahWVg
I won't try to replace only the glass, because my lcd is already broken. So I'll replace whole display unit (see link above for shopping details). Video on how to replace just the whole screen assembly can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzRsLDahWVg
Good news guys... My package arrived in Germany, so soon I will be able to replace my screen and get my DX working again...

I didnt drop my xtouch but its touchscreen isnt working at the corners HELLLPPPP

Did you remove the digitizer from the lcd? If yes, I actually don't know what to do; but I used a complete assembly of lcd and digitizer as replacement. It's sticking at the four corners, at least for me.
Its is sticking but slight gap near the ui keys .....
I think there is dust between the screen and the digitizer
