:crying: I have HTC One X+ 64gb Telus which is rooted,s-off and boot loader unlocked. I am using Elegancia 6.2.0. I don't know what happened to it. Suddenly Capacitive buttons are not working as light are working. In past it never dropped and I Nevar sit on it. I don't know why it happened. Now i am using LMT launcher from which I am not satisfied and thinking about repairing it. In my city there are no HTC service center but there is a collection point(I don't know what it is??? ) . I searched about this on Internet and found that it may be problem of Digitizer. So, My questions are:
1. By replacing LCD+Digitizer would solve this problem? If yes, then which variant should I buy SHARP or SONY version? As mine is Telus version.
2. Should I go to Collection Point in my city ?
3. Or should I take risk of doing dis-assembly of it ?
4. Or Should I buy a LCD+Digitizer from internet and do replacement by local mobile repairs?
PS: I bought it 2 months ago from ebay and it doesn't have manufacturer warranty. And sorry for my bad english
Bring it to an authorized repair shop or contact HTC and ship it in. Make sure that it is actually a hardware problem, and then have them replace it.
Try not to replace it yourself, there is a ton of adhesive and you might damage the phone as you need to use a suction device to remove the screen.
(I do believe the buttons are part of the lcd/digitizer assembly, but you might want to check with HTC support)

Cheap EBAY car charger from Bargaincell.com fried the charging circuit/sync/USB connnector on my brand new 8525. The guy tells me he won't do anything about damages, so I'm stuck needing a replacement motherboard. Other than this my device is in perfect condition, so I'm not looking to part it out either.
If you have an operational motherboard, Please email me at:

THANKS!
Have you tried putting the phone in for warranty?
Well, I got the phone 2nd hand off of ebay (No Warranty). Shortly there after, another ebay product killed it. See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1443395&postcount=22
I would still try and get it replaced through AT&T. I bought my 8525 through eBay and had an issue with it and AT&T still replaced it under the manufactures warranty for me. I've done it numerous times with phones over the years. The number you should call is 1-800-801-1101. It's definitely worth a shot...
Hmmm... I suppose the worst thing they can tell me is "no"...
I'll be damned... I didn't think that would work... A replacement is on the way! Thanks for the idea, TheBrit and ahfunaki!!
No problem, glad to have saved you some time and money...
And the nice thing is too, the phone you'll receive basically is brand new...
Bah... Cingular/ATT sent me a unit with the White screen issue. right out of the box... *sigh* A replacement for the replacement is on the way...

Or charge you for the new phone after they determine the damage wasnt due to a defect. You gotta be careful as they try to find anthing to make your fault. I got a couple boards if interested
LOL Just called them again tonight... Time for the replacement for the replacement for the replacement . The rep tried to talk me into taking a different model in exchange. "Sir, since you've had the trouble with that model, how about a different model instead? A Blackberry 7100, perhaps?" LOL. He didn't seem too surprised that I asked about the Tilt, and it seemed like he checked stock and said that there was none so far. We'll see what happens.
omg.....really>? if i would of known this i wouldnt of opened my phone and voided it....do you guys think that they will accept it?? i got my 8525 from ebay
to ahfunaki:
Can you write all procedure step by step, because I don’t live in USA but I have couple friends in USA with ATT account? I can ask for help but their don’t realize how to do it, because I was send my device couple weeks ago but in ATT local store refuse to help because of ebay purchase. A can call to ATT via skype and organize everything.
Sorry for my poor English.
Hi,
I smashed my screen on my I9305 and not realizing it i put the I9300 replacement screen on the phone. I have had issues with the IMEI null and not picking up signal. I have tried all mentioned methods on here to restore but none have worked. I gave up an contacted a repair center and they have said that putting a I9305 screen on will solve the problem. Is this correct as I don't want t spend money if it is not correct.
Thanks

As far as my knowledge goes screen replacing doesn't effect anything until or unless you have badly messed up some hardware in the process. The module used to allow communication on i9300 and i9305 is same plus it doesn't has to do anything with screen. You can try to put a new SIM card module to see whether the phone picks up signal or not. The best bet for you is that you don't go around spending money for a thing that is perfectly fine.
One more bet is that you may have ruined some inner hardware during the smash and not in the replacing process.
Hit Thanks if I helped.
did you replace the screen with a heat gun like in some videos on youtube? if so you might have damaged some of the sensible parts of the sIII if you didn't take them off before, for example the antenna or the simcard module like the one above me said.
so i think it will be difficult to find the broken part - changing all possible parts by yourself is very expensive and time-consuming.
I recommend you to consult an official samsung repair center (which will be expensive, too) or sell your phone as broken and invest the money in a new one...

No I replaced the screen with a genuine service pack one which came pretty much whole. Didn't heat anything just swapped them over and turned it on. Advice I got was that it was because I put on the i9300 screen on is why I couldn't restore my imei number.
Now selling the motherboard if anyone is interested

Its hard to find working main boards. Quickest way is to get it repaired by samsung service centers. But it will almost cost you as same as getting a second hand GS2. If you are willing to take a risk you can buy screen damaged phones on ebay and use its motherboard. Decision is up to you
i can't find any screen damaged phone on ebay or amazon

Then you should take your phone to samsung and ask for the price of a mb replacement
Nothing new .. still searching
and samsung agency on my country told me the board coasts 90% from the price of the phone as new
so , i should end my searching or there's any hope ?
You've already been told either eBay/Amazon for busted phone or Samsung/authorised repairer (who will charge you labour to install said MB; Samsung won't sell you one for obvious reasons, as you've found out)
What more are you expecting anyone here to tell you that you haven't already been told ? You were told those options because they're the options anyone who visits here in your situation would look at (I know I'd be looking for a 'donor'/broken phone first, then I'd be biting the bullet & either paying Samsung to fix it or get a new phone).
Posting here again in the hope this has somehow changed over the past week isn't going to make it so.
Hello everyone.
First of all, sorry about my English because I'm not a native speaker.
I have a phone model - HTC One X+ Plus PM63100 for AT&T 64GB - with cracked screen.
I found out that my phone has SONY display version ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2164760 )
Wanted to replace digitizer with front panel and order it from here http://www.etradesupply.com/oem-htc...embly-with-front-housing-and-light-guide.html but person who answered my question about compatibility said that it is not compatible with my phone model.
However, there is a one customer review under that replacement part which says that "it turned out to be uncompatible with my HTC One X+ international version. I do not know why this is the case but it is what it is."
In wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_One_X it seem international X+ and AT&T version are same size.
I'm very confused and desperate, searching more than 2 months and can't find which replacement part fits my phone.
Please advice what to do or purchase.
Also, are both X+ models - S728e?
Thank you beforehand.
cracked screen
I was in a similar situation some time back, when my Telus unlocked HOX+ 64 Gb dropped and the screen cracked.
I gave it to a local repair guy, he ordered a HOX screen first and then realised that HOX+ has a little different hardware (some screws were in different places). hence, HOX and HOX+ are slightly different builds. Also, the international HOX+ and AT&T/Telus HOX+ are also different I suppose. Firstly the they have red coloured capacitive buttons at the bottom (also there is no red ring around the camera at the back).
The part shown in your link seems to be the same one that I have, so i think it should be compatible.

Thank you for response.
I don't care about button colors, even logo. I just want to purchase match display. Could you please (if it is possible of course) ask your local repair guy what was the model he replaced for your phone? Even link will be very helpful for me.
Thanks againt
I've been using my phone since i quite badly cracked it last month. Touch screen is still working fine and i may not even get the screen fixed.
Only thing i'm worried about is if the device is less waterproof now i have large cracks in it....:/

hi thisaint,
i checked with my local guy, but sorry, he doesn't seem to have any clue regarding the model number or the actual source of the panel. most these repair guys here have a trader/distributor from whom they get all kinds of accessories required for repair and they hesitate to give out the details fearing loss of business.!

Dear friend,
thank you for response.
I'll be happy to be in Mumbai or even in USA to repair my phone but unfortunately I live in another country. )
I had a hope to see my phone repaired before this christmas but it seem I'll meet holidays without it
Solved
Hello everyone.
Finally I have found a replacement lcd screen digitizer frame assembly at ebay/com.
Seller assure me that his SHARP screen is interchangeable with my previous SONY screen and I risked and purchased his item for 65 USD.
(insert ebay com) /itm/LCD-Display-Touch-Screen-Digitizer-Frame-Front-Cover-For-HTC-ONE-X-Plus-S728E-/251348208725?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item3a85854c55
I'm using it without any issues, however screen buttons are red , that's all difference with original.
I replaced a smashed screen and damaged LCD on an LG Optimus L90 D415 (T-Mobile) and the digitizer is responding in a mirror-image fashion. That is if I touch an area on the right side of the screen, the touch is registered in the same congruent location on the left and vice versa. This is consistent across the whole area. I turned on the Pointer Location in the Developer's Option and it did show the trace on the opposite side. Could this be a firmware issue rather than a hardware defect or damage?
I'm a phone repair technician, and I am comfortable with the repair I made. There was no damaging mistake in the installation. Visually, the part looked fine. And there was not mistake like a reverse or upside down connection (not possible with the design of this phone).
I don't know the history of the phone but TWRP and a custom ROM had been flashed to it. (Thunder XBlast? I think) . I then flashed Cyanogenmod 11 and then flashed a stock ROM that didn't include stock recovery or bootloader. With all three ROM's the same problem occurred.
The problem didn't seem consistent with a physically damaged or defected digitizer - no ghost touches, dead zones or inconsistent behavior. So because it had been rooted and a custom ROM flashed I thought it may actually be a firmware issue, so I brought it to this forum. Any ideas?
did you happen to solve the problem with the Lg L90 digitizer being mirrored? I'm experiencing the exact same problem with the LG L90 T Mobile version that I replace the digitizer on. I put a white one on as opposed to the black that it originally had from the manufacturer and was purchased on ebay and shipped from Westminster, Ca- I'm leaning towards it being a defective part-please let me of any solutions you came by-thank you so much for your time (phone is stock, not rooted)
Unfortunately, I have not found a solution to my digitizer problem, but your information is quite helpful. I too opted to get the white screen version off eBay from a company in Westminister, CA. It was what was most available and best priced. And the listing claimed it was compatible with D405 and D415. Mine is the T-Mobile version and was factory black. It appears then that it may not be a defect issue but a compatibility issue. And apparently it's not an effect from rooting or flashing a custom ROM since the same thing happened on your device that wasn't rooted. It would be nice if there was a software fix that would render it compatible. Incidentally, I paid around $30 for both the LCD and digitizer. Looking back on eBay just now I noticed the company has bumped the same parts up to almost $90. I'll have to check and see if I can still get an RMA and send it back. Let me know if you have any luck.

Having the same issue here, purchased the black ebay version from a seller in MO and installed today. Are the contacts on the small ribbon cable reversible?
Installed on an unrooted tmobile L90 D415, bought the phone about 3 weeks ago before it dropped (my case came in the mail that same day).
Im wondering if there's a "good" version of this digitizer available, wouldn't mind paying a few more bucks on a part that actually works correctly.
