Does anyone know how to replace the digitizer only?
I checked youtube how to replace the lcd + digitizer front panel set but I cant find anything on just removing the digitizer from the lcd.
I checked aliexpress and found
"Touch Screen Glass lens Digitizer Panel Replacement For Sony Togari Xperia Z Ultra C6802 XL39h Original free shipping"
for $90.
Do I need the
"5X Digitizer Touch Panel Adhesive Sticker Rubberized For Sony Ericsson Xperia Z Ultra XL39H C6802,Togari,Xperia L4,Xperia ZU"
on aliexpress to make the digitizer stick to the lcd?
Or should I just fork out $150 for the lcd and digitizer set for an easier way?
But I would prefer just doing the digitizer way cause its more cheaper.
Any input would be great guys. Thank you.
AFAIK is almost impossible to remove it as they were bonded with good adhesive....
Some professional equipment are available to remove them but it cost quite a bit to do so...
Even if you managed to pull it off. You cannot water proof it anymore.

Is it the same as the "Z" ?
I saw this youtube video " watch?v=1TFFHFHUJjc " and I feel like I could do it. Search "Sony Xperia Z Separate Touch Screen (Digitizer Glass) Scotle PR-1000 "
Clamps, Heat gun, UV LOCA glue, and Molybdenum wire. I think I could pull it off.

U can try but is not that easy like what they said...
It take alot of patient which i dont hv...
Good luck and pls do update us...
I fixed it already. BUT! I dont know if the digitizer is defective or I messed up the connections when I took the old one off and the new one on or maybe it some how bent or the gule is somehow uneven and it is making the touches off point.
i.e.
I turn on show visable pointer upon touch in developer options.
When I touch the top right it clicks on the bottom left. vice versa.
When I drag down it drags right. vice versa.
Or maybe I need to calibrate the touch screen? I actually trying to search it now how to do it.
Any suggestions guy on any of this?
Please help.
How did you do it? only heat gun?
My Z cracked long time ago..and now my xperia L too So I guess I could try to repair my xperia Z, but I don't want to pay for a whole LCD.
Only heat gun and wire worked?
Besides can you remove the digitizer and LCD and then remove the digitizer? Or it has to be when still glued/connected to the phone?

Hello Guys,
i have a problem, i had already replaced the LCD-Screen because the old was broken.
But now i got a new problem... if i place the new screen on the digitalizer i got a glimer on the display. I don't now why. But i already discoverd that this effect only appearce if the LCD-Screen is on the digitalizer..
So what is the exactly reason and how can i fix this problem? Is the digitalizer cracked?
Here are 3 Pictures, one is without the digitalizer.
Thank You,
PS: Sorry for my bad english
did you try to fit digitizer in or just holding it upon the lcd?
what would happen if you rotate it 90degs?
are you sure there is no protection foil still on the lcd???
-
behind and on the lcd, there are reflection foils, bluring, light redirecting, polarizating. maybe 6 of them together. some are glued on screen, some are just below it. obviously there is something in digitizer as well, and those in your replaced lcd are not compatible with digitizer.
can you ask for return of the lcd and get another one?
the other option would be getting replacement of digitizer from the same shop.
or third, this effect doesn't look like it's from polarizator. polarizator is glued but those others are not. if it will not change if you rotate it, like with polarizator effect, means it's not polarizator and you can replace those other foils from below lcd. putting ones from your broken screen to the new one. It's quite difficult, but could be done.
okay.. if i rotate the digitalizer the effect changes..
in nearly 90 degree the effect is better than normal.. but not really good..
so is there a magnetism issue??
or whats the reason for this effect?..
could the digitalizer broken? but it's still working..
the display brokes because of violence..
could the digitalizer although broken??
no the digitizer is fine.
the replacement you get was not oem. means was not from the same factory.
someone working in there made some pictures or paintings of the lcd and showed it to his friend who owns a similar factory. He then made this lcd and sold it to you. As he didn't know what sort of, let's call them optic foils, have been used in the original he just put the ones he new were working fine with another mobile. But he didn't expect, as i am surprised too, that the digitizer have an optic foil inside as well. But before realizing, I suppose they already gave bonus to all those little workers and started overnight secret manufacture.
Before realizing the mistake, they already produced a lot of it. To cut the loses, I suppose they created a set of digitizers with a similar practice, which they would sell together with lcd and would be working good.
Now someone, your seller probably thought selling separate lcd would be ok too, so he did. That's why i was suggesting you have right to have an replacement, refund or an new digitizer from him at a fair price.
Of course don't take me too serious on the picture/painting matter, but otherwise I wouldn't be surprised if I came to true quite close
anyway those fake parts are a good quality and in most cases you wouldn't say difference. But shyt happens
as the rotating didn't solve issue completely problem would be those foils below lcd. if your seller would not be cooperative, you've got nothing to loose. open both lcds and change foils over.
Or get a fake digitizer which you would be sure is compatible with that screen.
If not successful, get a combo, lcd + digitizer.
hmm okay..
in the description is written original htc ware..
i had send my seller that problem and now we will see..
thanks a lot for those information..
I would be very interested in knowing how you got the digitizer and screen seperated? Arent they glued and most likely going to break easy?
did you mean the digitalizer and the lcd display or the front screen?
I opened one up once and the LCD appeared to be glued on to the back of the front screen (which I assume is the digitizer?)
ah okay.. eeerm.. i don't know that the lcd was glued on the digitalizer.. because my display has broken and the liquid was out of the display.. so the LCD was easy to take off..
But I've read some guys has warmed it firstly with a hair dryer and then they could take the display off..

you make me want to open ma rhodium.
if it's glued use a razor, or heat gun & blade like on apples.
then clean it and put new tape.

yeah dryer is maybe more safe just keep it below 100 cels. but it's not so vulnerable on bending too.
fake3: you sure you don't have protector foil on that lcd you bought?
i been playing around and get similar efect with a protection foil below polaroid.
there was still one protection foil on the front of the lcd.. but i already removed this foil..
but can you make a picture where the foil the polaroid is??

I was playing with just a generic foils. not rhodium.
They can put filters inside plastic nowadays. and mix even more of them and it's all still tiny.
If there is one in digitizer, it would cut sun reflections of lcd and would make good sense.
Glass could be tented, too. digitizer is usually one glass and one foil.
even if you would find something glued on lcd or digitizer, it's not possible to take it of without damage. I talked to people producing foils and applying them they can't take that off too.
There have you be one polarizer glued on front of lcd, otherwise you would see nothing. And they usually gluing one on back. That make the light more efficient. redirect light in useful directions, but is not necessary, that is another possible difference in your case. And probable, because it spares $ and space. But it's glued - no help there if that's the case.
but then there are all those which are dispersing light evenly, those you can try to change. They all have to be used in a set working together they create
something called Brewster condition, if that's not met, you see something like you see on your screen. every active foil is a part of it, and obviously there is something in your digitizer.
Just had another though, there is a small chance that htc decided to change factory or producing process themselves. and both are original. But I wouldn't say that's very probable.
So guys,
i solved the problem..
I bought an new Digitalizer from the same seller and now it works fine..
Thanks a lot for the hint with the different manufractures..
Greetz
happy to hear that
no worries
guys.. i wan to ask something..
my LCD is glued to my digitizer. since both of it is broken.. i juz throw the whole part away.
but then, i diden really glue my new / replacement LCD to my digitizer.
so i assume they did have some space in between.
although my rhodium works well now, but my digitizer only able to sense fingernail o stylus only. anything a tad bigger than fingernail, it wont pick up. neither my thumb nor my finger.
is this possible due to the space in between the screen made it so? or my digitizer was some lousy quality stuff?

The digitizer is a seperate part from the screen. It sends X - Y coords to the device letting it know where you pressed and the device coorelates that to what was on the screen where you pressed.
What I am saying is that you could have the two pieces seperated the screen in one place on the digitizer in another and you should still be able to press on the digitizer and have the device react appropriately.
The digitizer works independantly from the screen.
haha.. so in short.. it means by digitizer is lousy rite?
I Have de same problem, I need a new lcd screen but i dont know where buy
please help me
and i need the service manual
Thks
So it happened - my neoV fell on the ground. The screen smashed totally, however
the picture still seems to be clear behind broken glass, no bleeding or discoloration.
It's still responsive to gestures, however there is danger of cutting myself while touching the surface.
Now I need to know what needs replacing. Is it only the touchscreen - I've found some on ebay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SONY-ERIC...arts_Tools&hash=item4604353c33#ht_2532wt_1165
however I'm not sure if this is only a thin foil that goes over the glass or this is the whole glass that I need to replace with.
The cover is slighty scratched at one corner, this is not of such importance to me, I just need a working screen.
if screen is entirely responsive, then touchscreen/digitizer is ok, no need to replace it.
you might be just lucky and end up with ONLY broken front mask.
Digitizer is behind the glass? I thought this is a one-piece component. How is this mask called?
EDIT: you were probably referring to front cover? I found those also on ebay. I'm not sure how NEO V screen is held together - digitizer can be separated from front case?
Front cover, front mask, front housing..different names, but yes we think on same.
Digitizer shoud be stuck with screen and front case can be removed without separating from digitizer or screen.
Google up for disassembly videos tutorials or pdf guides, you can even find it in accessories section.
Repair
It's danger for screen sensor if you direct touch,,,
suggest go to Sony center nearly
sorry my bad english
It's the digitizer. It's composed from glass + sensors and this part as whole can be detached from front case.
But I need a new front case too, I found one of the side panels to have broken support latches around screws. It's time to get a red one
Does anyone know if MT15i Mt15a parts are compatible with MT11i Mt11a?
Xpeia neo v front screen glass cracked
Hey buddy,
I have broken the screen glass of my xperia neo v and fortunately it is working fine still.........
All the gestures are working perfectly and there are no changes in color...........just like u've mentioned.........
Just wanted to know if you've got your screen replaced, if yes from where? how much did it cost you?
Could you please give me some tips for the same.
Thanks & Regards.
I did
You need a new digitizer and case if some important parts of it are broken. Mounting the digitizer is a bit difficult, since it's hard to close it without trapping dust between it and LCD. Look into the technical manual
Check eBay for prices.

Not possible?!
Hello,
Just for i have tried on a discarded set of lcd/digitizer and it is not possible.
Reason being that the digitizer is "glued" with a thin layer of silicone to the lcd's polarization glass. At the first attempt, armed with a heatgun the silicone got stuck to the razorblade. Now for the second attempt I left the assembled unit in the freezer to see if the silicone will release its grip on the polarization glass a bit easier. And that didn't work either

I take it you are referring to the separation of the LCD from the digitizer?
If so, do you have a link to a guide? Got a smashed digitizer but perfectly working LCD. Not keen on sending to Sony as they'll probably want to charge £200 to replace the full LCD/digitizer set and I can get a new digitizer for £46 off eBay.
Hi Guys,
i think the most of you know, that the Z2 has a really poor glass quality. (My phone fell down from about 30 CM to a carpet and the screen had a little crack and the touchscreen didn't work. (Insurance of my friend payed for this, because he has thrown it down)
The costs for the repair were 200 €!
Now i found this on ebay: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Orig-Sony-XP...zer_Ersatzteile_Werkzeuge&hash=item3a9f2231e3
It was sold 53 times, but i thought you can't replace only the glass?
Or is it possible?
No, dont try it, I already bought one of them but at the end I experienced that the glass and lcd display is sticked to each other and not seperable.
I had to buy another one with lcd+glass and was able to fix.
They are selling but its a fault, we do not have factories to combine those glasses with lcd. They are cheating, be careful.
It‘s a incell screen so can't be separated
Glass and screen are seperate on Z2 from what i saw when i disasembled my phone.

On my D6503 glass/digitizer/lcd was glued together. Changed display recently because of a tiny fall.
But atleast its fairly easy to change.
It has a crack on the screen that made the touch screen stop working the other parts of the phone seem to be working. Is this just a replacement digitizer or a full LCD? The picture looks fine. I am hearing that it's hard to get the digitizer separated from the LCD screen? Aliexpress or ebay a good place to buy a replacement screen?
dafuk did u just do?? jesus ....
Uhm ..if you are not able to use warranty to sent it to repair. Make up a good story etc etc etc
Then start with taking it apart. Use a hairdryer or a hot air gun and circle around the back and then open the device.
There are official guides out there. Use them.

replaced my screen (with digitizer) a few months ago. i would strongly recommend buying screen with digitizer!
first had a sharp display now have a aou.
no problems. its actually quit easy to do. you just need some patience. dont forget to buy the adhesive. you may want to buy a opening tool (some vendors on ebay sell them with the display).
i didnt and used a box cutter but as a result i had a lot of tiny nasty glass pieces flying around (already removed the original foil on the display).
otherwise watch the guides on youtube. most of them are missing a step or two for disassembling so you may want to watch more then one guide.
