Hello everyone,
this is my sad story and I would like you to help myself out of this pervading sadness....:crying:
I don't know how it happened, but the screen of my archos 101 g9 cracked: the touchscreen still works, the glass has no damage, but underneath the glass there is a wide crack from side to side, with a huge stain (lcd liquid?) coming out from the cracks.
what is to be replaced?
i found this one, is that what I need? http://www.ebay.it/itm/251174616903...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_1598wt_1167
thank you very much
Giuseppe
I think you need a new screen. But mostly possible you will not be able to replace it if you're not skilled at repairing small things.
Touch screen digitizer is not what you need if your touchscreen works normally.

Hello,
yesterday I installed some new games on my p4350 and let a friend play with it,
unfortunally he pushed to hard with the stylus and the screen got damaged . the screen is still working but it got a dent.
now I wanna replace the screen myself, anybody can give me instructions how to do this?
Also i wanna know if the soft layer on the top(not the screen protector) and the lcd, is one thing.

download and read that ,it will show you how to disassemble the herald and take the screen out
Replacing digitiser on Herald as opposed to Hermes
Scuse me for butting in but I have both just bought a Herald with a broken screen AND have done a few screen replacements on Wizards, Blue Angels and Hermeses.
On this Herald I had just assumed that you could basically follow the video on YouTube which shows how to replace a screen on a Hermes? I see that the PDF file is quite complicated and is designed to show you how to take off every tiny part if it has failed. The screen replacement is far easier that this, right?
Secondly, I see that you can buy the screen separately from the 'protector' which is I assume the bit with the hole in on your unit? I have to say, I had never seen these replaced separately before: Is this something special to the Herald or can you replace this digitizer separately from the screen on other units as well? If so, how on earth do you get it off the screen please? And is there a reliable way of getting one back on? (There is no reference to this in the pdf manual but the digitizers are suddenly being sold on ebay for about five bucks)
So the question is whether this is still as difficult on the Herald as threads on the Hermes suggest?
I've opened my Herald, and to reach the screen you have to disassemble the whole thing.
It's not that difficult (albeit while following the service manual, since there are a lot of tricky areas like removing the Keyboard), you just need to have patience and not rush it.
Any way to set up device after flash with no touch screen.
The digitizer or screen is not functioning, before i take it all apart as shown anybody no of a way to bypass the touchscreen setup.
before trying to change the digitizer...
(and i know this is crazy but worked for me after replacing the cable going from the screen to the board)
install a screen protector and try again!
I had the same problem after opening my Herald, and right now the screen only works if i have a screen protector on. If not then nothing happens
digitizer replacement is actually very easy.

As I have now posted on a different thread, the digitizer replacement is actually very easy. You just slip a razor blade under the tabs and lever it off after removing that yellow tape on the back.

I agree. It was not difficult at all. I took apart and put together the phone a few times after just to develop a feel for it.
We have a tendency to get nervous about it but if you relax it becomes easier.
I have a a extra digitizer that I never used. If anyone wants it, pm me.
My Folio 100 suffered an accident and the LCD got cracked. A big part of the LCD is not working.
Other than that, the tablet is working properly, the touchscreen works, the tablet boots and you can launch applications and use them to some degree.
Is it possible to replace the screen? Where can I find a replacement LCD for this tablet? Would it be possible to replace it with a better quality LCD?
Im not sure you can do it yourself. You have to find a lcd that matches the connector used in the folio and uses the same driver, has the same size and resolution. On top of that if you open the folio you void your warrenty. Speaking of that, cant you get it fixed where you bought it?

My Transformer Prime is getting ghost touches recently and also i noticed that "The touch" doesnt work at 15% of the screen on the right side. Which should be replaced Digitizer or LCD?? pls help me!!!!
This is fairly old, but I recently solved those same problem for me so I figured that answering this might be useful to others:
1. Ghost touches: this is a hardware problem, the digitizer must be replaced. But this is fairly tricky, so it might be much easier to replace the whole LCD + digitizer assembly (easily found on ebay). It more expensive, but less risky...
2. The sides of the screen not responding to touch: as far as I can tell this is a software problem. Here is how I solved it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tran...2#post62361792
But this solution doesn't work for everybody apparently. So all I can say for sure is that:
- replacing the LCD/digitizer doesn't fix this particular problem. It doesn't seem to be hardware related.
- it can be solved one way or another...
anybody have any solutions?
Hi viewers, as you can see in the image attachment there, i'm just wondering what i am dealing with here so i kinda need your help telling me what that is, its definitely internally...the Lcd is fine, and i can still pull down the status bar when i touch over it... i don't really know how this happened and it bothers me, so yeah need some info >_<
Oh and if possible direct me to a link i need to buy a spare part to replace anything... thank you very much, appreciate your respone

Was the phone dropped as it looks like some damage on the top corner there or did a liquid get into the phone as it kinda looks like the digitizer got separated from the lcd screen as i had a phone that kinda looked like that and salt water got into it and salt water will really work things over faster.
But if the digitizer did lift it would have to be separated from the lcd screen and put back down again which is not a fun job to do as i believe there is a special film in between the digitizer and lcd screen that would have to be replaced, if not careful when separating the two the lcd screen can be broken very easy, i have replaced the whole digitizer and screen as one unit without any problems..but i never tried to separate the digitizer from the lcd myself..but if the whole digitizer + screen have to be replaced the assembly are a little over a $100 US.
But by your pic this is all i can suggest at this time as if the digitizer itself has to be replaced that is up to you as that is a more delicate job then just replacing the whole digitizer+lcd screen assembly.
Oh i'm very sorry man for late reply, busy lately... anyway thank u very much for your response and what i need to know...well i'm probably just going to leave it like that for now :/ i've all checked around for that digitizer+Lcd together, really expensive... so yeah thx again
Hello people!
I just dropped my phone display first into the floor.
The only visible damage is a tiny arced crack at the right edge of the screen, but that was enough to screw up the whole touch screen because the phone seems to activate touch around the crack, which leads me to my first question:
1 - Is there a way to disable part of the touch screen?
I can live without touch in the area of the damage, just not without any working touch
2 - Is there a way to hardware test using a PC to evaluate the extent of the damage?
3 - Do I buy just the screen, the screen + LCD or screen + LCD + frame?
4 - How do I know which OEM of Ebay to buy? Can I trust the ones saying it's an original Sony Screen + LCD?
Thank you for taking the time to answer these questions. I do believe there are more people out there with same or very similar questions.
HI,
I had craked my z2 screen twise
in my experience u need to replace the whole LCD screen .
i had craked my Z before, but for Z , the crak didnt affect other parts , you can use the phone , but for z2 no hope.

in this case no, Z2 LCD display is seperateed from the glass
you can weirdly find glass and screen put as one but thats some sort of odd scam :/

Thank you so much for giving me the answer I wanted to hear. Unfortunately I can't find any videos on how to do this for the Z2. Have you done it? I'm curious to know whether the display is allover glued to the digitizer as in the case of the Z1 or if it's just glued around the corners of the screen as in the M2. Mind you that this is simply observations I've made from watching youtube videos, so the above mentioned information might not be correct.
man, u cannot separate the display and digitizer . its a single glass. for Z2. u need to replace the single glass
You could try finding parts from aliexpress, try looking through the feedbacks before ordering.
Or if you are not too bothered by the cracks you could just put on a screen protector or a tempered glass screen protector.
Try going into youtube and search witrigs for teardown and repair videos.
Wish you good luck! ?

Hi guys,
My Screen cracked, i order a new screen. I install it right with instructions. LCD screen works about 1 minutes, but now the phone has so called ghost touches.
What might be a problem? LDC-screen is broken?

Yeah!
I did take a chance and purchased a new glass without display. Good news is I never got an opportunity to use it, so I might be able to return it. Bad new is I'm now buying a front glass and lcd.
Even though it might technically be possible to just exchanging the front screen, I would say it's highly improbable that you will successfully do so.
Judged by my level of technical tinkering, I would say that a vast majority of the people in this forum will probably fail in exchanging front glass without exchanging lcd.
I'm not saying this to put anyone down, but I'm giving you the advice I wish I would've gotten before getting over-confident.
So for goodness sake,
BUY FRONT GLASS+DIGITIZER+LCD, and save yourself both time, headache, and possibly money
Hi, i'm waiting for my Z2 replacement screen and i have a question for those who have changed it, does the sensitivity of the touch screen is the same like the original? I mean the option that you can use the phone with gloves...
Thanks!
How much did it cost u, repairing the screen
