Anyone have a how to for replacing a broken LCD on the L9? I think only the LCD is broken not the touch screen part any way to tell for sure aside from ripping it apart? The lower part of the screen is blurred and I see a crack in the corner but I don't feel it so I think it's just the LCD. The only think I have found is a video showing how to replace the touch screen but they already have it all ripped apart and don't really show how to take it apart.
I figured I would just have to buy a new phone but the screens are surprisingly cheap so I think replacing the screen is worth it if I can do it without killing the phone.
worth trying.
I think the front speaker nook looks like a good place to start prying.
use heat gun to make the glue come off easily.
unless there is an easier way to access from the back of the phone.
I got the screen replaced and the phone still works even.
This video helped a lot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5YdWeBoM2U while this is a different version of the phone it is pretty close
This device isn't all glued together you just have to remove the screws and it will snap apart. The hardest part for me that is not shown in the video was getting the display cable through the frame the slot isn't wide enough for it to just slide though and I didn't want to break the new screen.
Anyone else with a broken screen give it a try it was only 25 bucks delivered.
After repairing my iPad2, that looks easy.. LOL
I'll keep that in mind if I ever break my L9 screen
yeah there is a video, some one made one, fully detailt!!!
my touchscreen is shadert and later i dropt it again lcd gone black!
so i was happy to see some one make a full video!

So, about 2 weeks ago, I got my HD2 off of Craigslist with a cracked screen. It worked perfectly fine with the exception of the hardly noticeable cracks. I knew I could get the replacement digitizer/screen for $40-80. I got my screen in the mail yesterday and, following the "YouTube" video tutorial found on this site, I......ugh.... replaced the screen....................I SCREWED UP BIG TIME!
First, I broke the ribbon cable for the Side "Volume Up/Down" buttons. Then, I broke the ribbon cable for the "soft keys." Ah, crap, but oh well. I figured I could use the touch screen for pretty much everything i needed to do. Well, while prying the cracked digitizer screen from the LCD, I went a bit too deep & peeled the tinted film off of the LCD. I thought nothing of it at the time. I'd already done enough damage. So the display would be a bit brighter than normal oh well.......WRONG! I put the phone back together and once I get it to power up, all I get is a white screen. I thought I missed something. So I disassemble & check 3 more times. Still a white screen.
Well, after all of this, the new digitizer/screen doesn't want to stay in place very well. So, being pissed off and curious, I pull it out and away and notice in the backside reflection of the digitizer that I can slightly make out the phone display. So, apparently the "Tinted Film" that I accidentally peeled off of the LCD makes images visible on the phone screen. I kind of damaged this film when peeling it off. Therefore, I am unable to put it back on. Does anyone know of a simple fix without replacing the LCD?
SORRY FOR THE "SHORT STORY LONG."
I was brainstorming and thought that maybe the film was polarized. So, I grabbed my sunglasses, which are polarized, and wearing them, I can faintly see the display. Anyone think maybe polarized window tint might fix my problem?
Hey man I have some electronic devices that need repair, can I send them to you to fix them?
SURE!
You can pay me in HD2 parts.
Sir i can only say 1 thing. search ebay and replace everything you damaged. only that way you will get your hd2 in perfect state.

I'd go one step further and say bin it and get a new one!
You sound just like me. That is why I never try things like that anymore. Hope it gets sorted but might be better looking for a used one.
I've got it functioning...
I found the film that I ripped off, put it over the screen and........I CAN SEE! However, the top half has lines through it. So, I must've damaged the LCD. The good news is that my phone is useable again. I just have to do everything via the touch screen and can't let the screen hibernate unless I have my charger close by. I'm just gonna keep my eye out for a cheap busted phone and eventually have a 100% phone again...
I sympathize with you. I broke HD2 while I was trying to check for loose WiFi card cable(cuz i was getting weak WiFi signals). The cable turned out to be fine but the external speaker stopped working. I opened it up again and adjusted some parts and it just got worse. the HD2 didn't power on at all. I tried fixing it but to no avail. I ended up sending the HD2 to a repair shop and was charged $170 for the repair. the repair guy said i messed up the power IC and the connector for the external speaker and he had to replace the power IC and resolder the connector.
I think I'm gonna stop trying to open up expensive phones. i was stupid thinking that since I have successfully replaced digitizer for my previous Palm T3, E2 and T5, opening up HD2 wouldn't be a problem. Should have known HD2 components are really fragile...

The best topic ever Thanks, dude!
I literally just watched my phones screen shatter itself right in front of me. It was sitting on my desk next to my keyboard and I heard a cracking noise, so i looked over and the screen was super cracked. I went to pick it up, and when I did, the screen cracked even more and is a mess now. I've dropped my fair share of phones and iPods, and know what cracks like that look like (spiderwebbing out from a point), but this one looks nothing like that. The whole screen is messed up.
My questions are these:
1. Would Verizon provide me with a replacement phone because I didn't drop it (I doubt it)?
2. How hard would it be for me to replace my own screen/find parts to do so?
Thanks
P.S. I am trying to get my old DX2 to turn on so I can upload pictures of what it looks like.

It's been mentioned lots of times before. Look around you may even find a video or two on changing the screen.
With physical damage don't count on VZ replacing it in store.

I have watched the videos and such, but I am still super confused about what I need. The screen still works perfectly, all i want is a new glass front. Can I order one of the glass lens/digitizer combos and use that? Those are about 20 bucks, but if I get one with the LCD screen included (again, my screen works fine) it goes up to about 80, at which point I would just go with VZW and get it replaced for 99. I am really confident that I just need the lens/digitzer thing, but I have read things about the screen and digitizer being fused together and that is what confuses me.

NO!... The digitizer is bonded to the LCD and I've not seen one person successfully change just it. There's no reason it should even be sold.
The combo is the way to go and I'd go one step further and get the frame and adhesive for about an extra $25 just to not have to deal with separating it. That's the hardest part int eh videos.
Wait... Verizon charges $100? Is that through Assurion?

Yup 100 through Assurion. I'm really mad cause I didn't break it and I can't afford the LCD combo or the VZW replacement so it looks like I'm just stuck.

I ordered a screen/digitizer assembly to replace mine because its cracked. I didn't want to disbond the digitizer so I ordered the whole assembly.
When I installed the new. assembly, the screen wont come on and the phone wont boot. Here is where thing started to get interesting:
1. Boot the phone with the old screen assembly and wait until the home screen shows then turn off screen.
2. Disconnect the old screen at this moment and connect the new one while the phone in sleep mode.
3. push power button to wake screen and its working and fully functional.(New one)
If I tried to reboot the phone the new screen wont come back on again. I also tried to reset and RUU and it still wont work.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions. I am in the process of returning the screen and getting another one, but i am still worried if I will be going through the same issue. One thing I didn't like about the phone is the cheap trashy components. So easy to brake and not made to be worked on.
I think I found the problem.
Well. Taking a closer look at the ribbon cable for the LCD and it appears to be the same color, but if you follow the lines, it does not look the same. I am currently waiting on a screen from a different seller and hoping to be the right one. I will keep you updated as I go forward.
Too many views, but no comment. I just hope this post going to help someone in the future. Keep in mind that sellers doesn't specified the kind of the LCD which is creating the troubles.
I am going to attach some photos to make it little clear. Keep in mind that I have HTC One for AT&T USA.
Did you ever replace the screen? I need to take mine apart and put a new battery and USB port in it. I'd like to know how pulling the screen went for you, if it was done.

Not that good. I watched a YouTube video that helps a Little. You have to be really careful. Watch it and let me know if you need any additional help. Removing a broken screen not that bad since its broken. Be really careful when you order your new screen because I am having trouble to fine the right one. Mine PN: 60H00741-00P . There are many PN: 60H00742-02M that aren't working for me.

The problem I have isn't the screen, but rather the battery and the USB port.. I have found both for about $20 each, but just didn't want to trash a basically brand new HTC.
Did you use a suction cup or pry it out?

I used a plastic sharp tool and you need to find the spots where you have to press on it to get it released. If you look at the first video, you will see where he marked it. those are the lock tabs that hold the assembly. The worst could happen is you may put a few dents in the plastic frame. You can order this part for around $20. A suction cup may works for you as well. Consider giving it little heat to lose the adhesive. Let me know if you still have any further questions.
Good luck
Where to get the right LCD in USA
I finally found a good supplier in USA for the proper kind of LCD. I spoke to him on the phone and I sent some pictures of my LCD. He has LCD part number 60H00741-00P that I been looking for. The website is https://www.gounlock.com/ If you ever call, ask for Jacky.
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 >_<

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
guys I need help, my phone dropped in water and apperiantly water managed to escape through the phone, and i turned it off immediatly and once i dried it out in a rice bowl for about 2 weeks, i turned it on and it had this 3D look on it and it yet had some bright dots on the screen and I thought it was water drops so i decided to dry it out more in a hair dryer and i put it on very hot and i kept on the phone for a couple of minutes and there was a yellow spot on the screen i think it got burnt or some thing and the company wont fix it for me under warrenty and I wanna fix it my self but i dont know what screen to buy
this?

or this?

whats the difference between both and which one will solve my yellow spot problem?
First one is third party production, so not from Sony. Can be fine, but it's your choice.
Second is a ripoff. I would recommend to search for an original one but I'm sure you can find it cheaper then there.

hmmmm what i meant was, the first one is only screen and the second is with frame or some thing, whats the difference?
buy screen include frame, speaker, button, headset port and usb port, make sure waterproof seal is good. so you only move phone motherboard, camera and battery. buy Screen include all of them is more better quality of screen, beware bad quality screen is possible ghost touch (lifetime touch screen is bad). I also specially services xperia. I recomended you buy screen like in my attachment (like phone without machine).
and for backdoor/backcover if want to waterproof can use original addesive, usually I use Dextone silicone sealant (pict in attach), green fast drying - orange more time to dry. dab a little silicone on the frame to be taped
not too much, and leave 10 minutes before sticking backcover
I hope its help.
sorry for my english
