Hey Guys
I finally managed to crack my wizard (dropping it out of everywhere )
The prob is that I cracked only the touchscreen not the LCD.
The touchscreen seems to get the touches but it understands them differently.
For Ex:I push the Time on HTC HOME It opens the soft or left key dependent on where I'm pressing.
I found a touchscreen on e-bay without an LCD for 13 bucks so I ordered it but I wanted to know if anyone else had any luck with same situation
Aldo
Same case yesterday
I also drooped y phone yesterday and I have a crack line running across the screen but the touch screen is working ok for me. I saw the eBay auctions about screen and no lcd but what if the lcd is the part that is broken ?
can we change that too ?

I have several times replace LCD in a wizard. It was very difficult for me to replace the touchscreen so i take the complete set. It is not only te replace the touch layer, but you must alse do some soldering.
And if jou replace the screen, the flexcable must be propperly fit. Before i assembley al, i first check if screen en touch are oke.

It seems to be. I did it on a wizard and i know the HTC 8125 is the same one with a different housing.
I remember this kind off LCD picture. There is a dissasembly guide but you need a torx 4, plastic openingstools and a very tiny X screwdriver.
I use this kind off opening tool [URL="http://www.mobielbereikbaar.nl/Product.aspx?naam=Nokia+SRT-6+Opening+Tool+Origineel[/URL]

I got one from them.With instructions and tools!Worked fine.Install was easy
i have succesfully replaced the touch screen on my tmobile mda vario.
check that the ribbon cable is exactly the same as whats on your phone. the first touchscreen i got of ebay the ribbon cable was slightlly different and after assembling it didtn work, after getting another one with same ribbon cable, worked perfectly.
Note that you will have to solder the ribbon cable, a good soldering iron with a very fine tip will make it fairly easy. ribbon cable is very small so soldering can be a tad fidgity.

No need to buy the lcd seperate from the touchscreen and resistance weld the cables

I'd just go ahead and get the lcd screen with the digitizer. That soldering won't work unlest you can resistance weld the lcd ribbon cable and digitizer cable together and its only about $30 bucks on ebay now for them both together. Then you just get the repair manual, open the phone, swap the screen out and just plug it in and it works.
Is it easy to just change the touchscreen? how to do it?
Hi,
I had the same problem few month ago, and at that time the LCD screen was broken, and I had to change it by myself (with no big problems).
now I have a similar problem but just the touch screen is broken, I see that the price of just the touch screen is much cheaper that the whole LCD screen, but my doubt is:
How can I install just the touchscreen on th LCD,
I heard that you have to solder it.. but how? and is it easy?
is someone of you knows how to do it please post the istructions...
Luca

I say if you are asking for instruction or pictures on how to replace a touch screen, you will not be able to do it yourself, it's a specialised techie job. I suggest replacement of the entire unit assembly - LCD+digitizer.
enigma is right.
Changing the digitizer is not an easy job. I recently had a "blind spot" in the middle of the digitizer, and I did not even think about changing it. Instead I obtained a LCD/digitizer unit from *bay for a bit above 20 Euros including postage (from China). Changing the LCD unit was done in 20 minutes all in all, and now my good old Wizard works fine again.
If you decide to buy a complete unit (I would really recommend this!), be shure to buy the right one, there are two types, one with a "gold ribbon", one with a "black ribbon". So, first you have to open your Wizard and look which type you need. Good luck.
htc housing
Hi guys, my trusty old wizard has finally fallen apart. the hain housing is craked even though the lcd and the phone itself is still in top condition. I am looking for a new housing so I can replace the old one and end up with a virtually new phone. Could someone point me to the right place please. I have been trawling the internet these last few days but because they have been out of production for that long, there does not appear to be any places I can get a housing to buy. Your help will be deeply appreciated.
Cheers.
hello, when i got my asus transformer prime, there was a bend above the power connector which made it a little more difficult to plug in the power cable, i didn't see it as a big issue until yesterday that i went to plug in the power cable and the bent part shifted upwards and cracked my screen. its a small crack on the edge but very noticeable and it breaks off into 4-5 long cracks that stretch across the screen. i called asus and they told me to RMA it. they said they were going to take a look at it and determine whether or not my warranty is going to cover it but i doubt they will and if they offer to repair it i know it will be a ridiculous amount of money. as an alternative im trying to find a replacement screen (the LCD is not damaged just the glass front panel) but i have not found anything. I found this site asusparts.eu but i dont know which part is which and i dont know the model number of the part i need. does anybody know the part number of the screen? or any other place i can buy a replacement front panel glass? (not lcd) much thanks.
Does anyone know where i can get the lcd screen flex ribbon mine broke and i dont want to buy a whole new screen just for the cable. any help would be great.

Hi,
I am at the same position as you.
I trying to find a seller or supplier that ship the lcd flex ribbon (p4 cable) and i could not found anyone yet.
Also i know that even if you buy a new lcd screen the flex ribbon wont be part of the package. :crying::crying:
Someone please help us!!!
i too am looking for the same cable
OK guys, after digging a lot , (sending message all over the world, surfing the web, etc) i found a seller from ebay that can deliver the lcd flex ribbon for P7500 not the P710. But he is not sure that both use the same flex cable.
So we need to figure it this out.
See some picture about my cable attached (p7510), i believe the cable should be the same because both tabs are using the same LCD screen, right? the only big different is the 3G modem.
Hope someone could clear this out. :good:
Best Regards from Argentina

Hi,
I recently cracked the digitizer on my Asus Padfone 2 Tablet and I got a replacement digitizer from Ebay.
However, after replacing it, I noticed the x-axis is flipped.
How can I reverse it? Can it be done via editing some files?

Hello,
I'm desperate for some help. My girlfriends Lumia 920 got a cracked glass the other day, so I ordered a brand new OEM digitizer and adhesive and fitted it yesterday. All seemed well. Anyway last night we noticed that the soft keys don't light up anymore.
I assumed they scavenged light from the LCD screen but maybe they don't? Are they on a connector? Are they LED's? Has anyone else made this mistake before and knows how to rectify it, or is it a defective digitizer
Any help?
same issue
I have the same problem , mine worked fine then after replacing the glass/digitizer the touch and the lights at the bottom don't work. with the first one I thought it was bad , so they sent a second one. it does the exact same thing . so either the phone got messed up or maybe the replacements use a new chipset that does not jive well with the phone .if anyone needs parts for their phone I will part this one out. I got a new one from a pawn shop for $150 so it was not worth replacing the whole chaise to fix it ($99 online) . the digitizer/glass is brand new , maybe it will work for someone else and the battery, camera and lcd work fine as do all the buttons and charge ports.
