hey fellow modders,
i recently dropped my legend on a trek resulting in a cracked digitizer and screen. for replacement i was looking for cheap broken legends on ebay to replace the broken screen and digitizer and came across two items which say
"ALTHOUGH THE PHONE DOES SEND & RECEIVE CALLS
THE TOUCH SCREEN FOR THE DROP DOWN BOXES SOMETIMES
WORKS & SOMETIMES DOESNT, HENCE SPARES OR REPAIR."
if the digitizer and screen is sourced from such a phone will my perfect (was perfect before it was dropped) legend also inherit the mentioned problem?? apparently this is a common problem with legends.
Thanks very much and mod on XDA!!

its same problem with mine as well, if your problem is solved c worked thank youan you please tell me know how it
Touch hd screen not responding to touch or stylus
Touch hd screen not responding to touch or stylus
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In early February I upgraded my Touch HD to 6.5 from 6.1 and if am right it was energy.blackstone.21891.leo_Max. It worked for about two week and and then one day I struggled to get a gps fix on my tomtom. The next day the screen just froze with no response of any touching or stylus.
Managed to put the original orange rom back on it but could not cariberate the screen due to its not responding. I sent the phone to HTC UK for repairs but they said due to my having used unauthorised software the motherboard needs to be replaced and they were asking me to pay 168 pounds so they could go ahead with the repairs. I got the HD2 on a new contract.
Still love the TOUCH HD and was wondering is there another way of breathing life into this thing. Responds well to install new roms but the screen continues to remain frozen
Hi, guys
HTC Touch HD is good telephone, but touch gets out unfortunately often. It in Poland is this the cheap part however exchange of such touch costs 2x price of touch.
I bought week this on internet auction telephone with damaged touch which now cannon. I paid in Poland for damaged telephone 300PLN (60GBP) as well as for touch + conversion 100PLN (20GBP). Mate which converted touch, he did this 3h. It is not easily because it was it been possible to damage near conversion display as well as tape. He wanted me to to count up to his work, abut did not make this because we earlier were already prearranged on price. I know now that it will take a bit more but display + conversion will not cross 150PLN (30GBP)! If someone will be dust telephones with damaged touch, I will hug it willingly, they are reparable
it seems everyone had Energyrom on HD when it goes to the heaven...
Is it because of Energyrom, or is Energyrom so popular?
I have Energy since I have this HD, but never was any problem with it - until now... I'll try to find a way to replace the digitizer, hope it will solve the problem.

Well, I rather think it's because the EnergyRom is so popular So the bigger coincidence from my point of view is that all our devices break down at nearly the same time! Mine, e.g. is nearly 2 years old - all the other devices presumably around this age too...
I'm now changing the digitizer and LCD (as the LCD got broken when removing the digitizer )

Mine is 2 years old as well, but this problem (touch screen not responding) occurred to me the third time by now. Also, it has nothing to do with the ROM, since I had stock every time it happened. (yes, after two years I am finally getting around to change ROM in my device. it's just sad).
I suspect a dead digitilizer, you can get them cheaply on eBay

Good Day folks, here is the long and short of it.
Galaxy s 2 fell and the screen broke
I bought a new screen
Replaced the screen BUT two big problems occured.
1. The screen appears to have less colours than my original screen
2. NONE OF THE SOFT KEYS WORK, HOME, MENU AND BACK DO NOT WORK.
Number 2. is the big problem. Does anyone have any idea how these buttons work?
Even when I press the buttons directly with my fingers with the buttons off they still do not work.
Im baffled. Please help.
I also have attached pictures of the button area
It happened to me, I removed the screen, I replaced from beginning and it worked...
Hi Collado, do the white things behind the buttons have any electronic functionality or are those just things to make it stick?
To all future readers. I found out what the problem was. Basically,
The home, back and menu keys are all connected to a single ribbon. It appears there is a tiny piece, connected via the back key. That was torn while i was ripping off the the screen and digitizer.
See the picture attached
How much did you pay for your replacement screen and where did you get it. My digitizer is broken due to a drop. My front glass is perfect but the digitizer is completey shot. How difficult was this project?
Hi Johnboy
I cant remember the price of the digitizer offhand but make a check on ebay.. that is where i got it.
Difficulty is high as you need the minature tool set to do this effectively and a gentle touch.
However, it still appears as though the screen I bought has less colours.
Sorry to jump in and unintended hijack
I also dropped my S2 and cracked the screen, and after checking around dropped it in to the Geek Squad at CPW. Who duly replaced the screen and digitizer for £80. Only problem is the screen seems less bright and if moved off the central viewing angle the screen dims, as if it wasa standard lcd and not the orginal AMOLED screen. Does anyone know if they make lesser screens or was it fitted badly.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
DM.
I would go back with it and complain.If you dont get satisfaction then do an impression of the guy that goes into the pizza shop in "rise of the foot-soldier" film.

I love my dear Rezound, as it has helped me so many times, and maybe might've even saved my life at one point. I am the only 1 out of 5 lines who is not tied down to a contract and does not have a Samsung Galaxy S III or Note 2, because I love this phone that much. But the problem is, after 6-7 months after I got it, it fell down on the concrete sidewalk and cracked the screen. It was only two really small hairline cracks, so I didn't think anything of it, only the occasional annoyance that I dropped it whenever I watched a YT video. I was fooling around with a bunch of my friends, and it fell out of my pocket, now the screen's broken to the point where if I touch it, I can sort of like...feel the screen being pushed down. The touch screen still works, and I'm planning to get it replaced at a local mall sometime this month. So I was wondering...if the store rips me off and uses just a cheap screen, will the display be bad? Will I not get that same, cool, color as I did when it wasn't broken?
TL;DR if a store that fixes phones uses a low quality screen, will the colors not be the same as it was before?

it depends on the service at the store. If they charged less than $50 to replace it. 9 times out of 10 it was just the glass.
if it was more. then they did replace the lcd. A lot of the times they will buy OEM but you do have the off chance of getting a China knock off.
tl:dr it is quite possibly they did replace with a bad lcd. Most places offer a warranty on it so i would go talk to them.
If just the digitizer is cracked and not the LCD, then they should just replace the digitizer and all the colors and richness will remain. The only Rusk is dead spots on the touch screen which if its a reputable store should have some kind of warranty I would think.

I dropped my GT-P7510 and the screen shattered but didn't call out. I was able to use the tablet but was worried about cutting my fingers as I swipped. I bought replacement digitizer on Amazon for $15 and with the help of a YouTube video was able to remove the old screen and install the new one. It took me no more than 20 minutes, all I needed was a hair dryer and a few butter knives.
"This seemed too easy" was my thoughts as I was powering the tablet. Everything started up fine, was working perfectly UNTIL I noticed a few "dead spots" on the new touchscreen. One of which is right over the install button in the Play Store.
It's not the end of the world as this tablet is quite old and I really only use this to play Appeak Poker and the only new apps I install are the sponsored apps in Appeak that give me free chis just for running them.
Has anyone else experienced this problem after replacing their digitizer and if so, is there a fix?
Thanks

Try checking the connection between the digitizer ribbon cable and mainboard socket thingy. Push it as far as possible without damaging and press the clip to secure connector.
hi all,
first forgive me, english is not my first language
instead of creating a new thread, i used the search option and found that thread so ill post my problem here.
I own a p7500, and last week i dropped it on the floor and broke the glass. Since i use my tab for work i couldnt wait for ordering a replacement glass and do it myself so i brought the tab to a store close to my place named youbreakifix and they changed the glass for 100$. The lcd is 100% fonctionnal as well as all buttons.
now at first the lower right corner wasnt responsive at all as well as the bottom section of the tab. Also, sometime the whole screen wouldnt be responsive until i screen off then screen on again.
The guy told me he would open it and check all connections and if the problem isnt fix, he would order a new glass and replace it again.
Now the next day, they called me saying everything looked fine, i went to the shop and tried to swipe home screens from one to another with success.
Once at home, i started to play a little more with the tab and found that the digitilizer is still totally unresponsive in a intermittently way until i screen off and back on.
Also, when i press on some area (really small and alway at the same place) the tab look like it has a dead spot.
According to you, is it the glass that i should get replace again (on warranty 90days) or it might be another internal problem of the tab ?
Hi all, my Kindle HDX 7 has a cracked screen ( i dont undertand why happened at the first place) , a little piece of paper stuck between frame and screen border cleaning the display as normally do ,when i remove it using a minimun of pressure , i hear a crack, and now 40% of the screen is not responding to my fingers,using a torch shows the complete damage , a line crossing edge to edge display.
But thats history, im asking a references to buy a replacement, the cheapest OEM or Generic with the warranty i got a decent quality (probably bought a 9H Crystal screen protector ,to be safe from now)
Im looking this vendor on Ebay

Im not gonna replace the screen , when the piece arrives ,i leave the tablet with a trustworthy technician

60-80% of the cost of a pre-owned device. Don't see the value.
Guessing an aging battery swelled putting pressure on the screen. If accurate failure was imminent. So called 'screen protectors' are only effective against direct abrasion/impact; 'hard' overlays can actually contribute to glass fracture on drops and other events depending on how forces are distributed.

Yes i know the display isnt cheap, only want to spend the less to repair it, was saving some money to get the 64gb version and leave this kindle to my mother, she only want some basic stuff, 16gb isnt enuogh to save mutiple ISO's / APK and my stuff, but this unfortunate accident, change my plans, and i decide repair the cracked kindle first , the good side is , the tablet drop the price next months.
So, i make the order on Ebay, its a good chance to make a video/ tutorial to replace screen , the videos available on youtube dont have a good Quality.
