Due to a workplace accident I ended up smashing the screen of my Padfone S Plus. I replaced the screen myself which didn't quite go to plan as I must have damaged the digitizer somehow. I ended up getting another screen and digitizer and got it fitted at a phone repair shop. I've now got a repaired screen which I can barely use without docking it in the tablet as the touchscreen is just sluggish. Just wondering if anyone has one they are looking to offload.
Thanks

I m interested to buy your old phone. check your email.

About a month ago, my fiance dropped his phone from the work truck (about seven feet) and of course, the screen cracked and had a big spider web on the upper left portion. Oddly enough, the touch screen still worked fine. While functional, the spider web annoyed him greatly, so we got a new glass screen for the phone.
We originally purchased the wrong model (he has a r530). When the screen wasn't working I took the phone to a repair shop and the guy said I very well could have gotten the wrong model screen for the phone. So we bought the correct model screen for his phone and the same thing happened. The soft buttons are working, the noise works and it lights up just fine. The LCD screen is in perfect condition and the guy at the repair shop said I replaced the screen perfectly (I used the plastic tools and a blowdryer and kept the heat away from the center of the phone and took my time. The original screen came off in one piece and I didn't run into any problems during the replacement.)
We recently ordered a new screen, thinking the last one we received may have been defective. However, after placing the new screen on the phone, the same exact issue arises where the soft keys work but the actual screen did not.
So...I was hoping for some help/advice. We really don't want to have to buy the LCD/Screen/Digitizer combo cause it's soo expensive. Could the digitizer have somehow been ruined during the replacement?
Thanks for any input you have. It is greatly appreciated.
well, did you replace the digitizer? if yes, then the issue is in the motherboard

I haven't been able to figure out how to replace just the digitizer, nor have I been able to find where to buy just a digitizer. Do you have any suggestions?
From what I understood, the digitizer was integrated into the LCD screen but I may be mistaken.
It's not the motherboard because if I take the motherboard from his phone and put it in mine everything works fine.
Search for the screen replacement how to and also you tube video .

touch is the digitizer's responsibility
Guys,
Today I dropped my DX (so much to say about Friday the 13th...)
You can see it in the attached picture. I just wanted to ask, will the following replacement work:

Thank you in advance!
Few weeks ago, I dropped my DX too, although damage was less. I read about digitizer replacement on HTC devices (in general) and I read it's not that easy as on Samsung devices. One guy tried to replace digitizer and he ended up with broken LCD panel. You can also buy whole module (LCD screen + digitizer) but it's like a roll of a dice - you can get good lcd and you can get bad lcd too. It's a risk. You can send it to local repair centre. I was told it would cost about 100-120€. From then, I knew, I have to live with that broken screen. lol
Found something different:
http://www.parts4repair.com/complete-screen-assembly-with-lgp-for-htc-desire-x-t328e/
Does anybody have experience with that shop? The price is ok, I would even order a new back cover there (because mine is a bit broken, too).
Hard to replace
I've tried to replace the touch screen (only the glass). In eBay it's about 25$ or something like that.
It hard, very hard to replace. I've ended with a broken LCD, because when try to separate the glass from LCD, LCD broke.
For me, it's better to replace the whole screen, not only the glass. I've seen it for 51$ in eBay, but worth it.
Video on how to replace (as you can see, you need a dryer, and big ball, because phone gets VERY hot, and you're the whole time thinking you're going to melt it
.you*tube*.co*m/*watch?v=hzRsLDahWVg
I won't try to replace only the glass, because my lcd is already broken. So I'll replace whole display unit (see link above for shopping details). Video on how to replace just the whole screen assembly can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzRsLDahWVg
Good news guys... My package arrived in Germany, so soon I will be able to replace my screen and get my DX working again...

Did you remove the digitizer from the lcd? If yes, I actually don't know what to do; but I used a complete assembly of lcd and digitizer as replacement. It's sticking at the four corners, at least for me.
Its is sticking but slight gap near the ui keys .....
I think there is dust between the screen and the digitizer

Hello everyone! So, I was laying down, using my XTZ when I accidentally dropped it. As it was falling, I sort of "caught it", but not without hitting it against the side of my bed quite forcefully. Long story short, the digitizer seems to be broken. The screen will not respond to touch neither on cm11 nor in recovery (which, btw, has some basic touch features built in.) I don't use the XTZ much, so I'm just wondering if there is a best option here other than just leaving it and using a mouse and keyboard. Thanks in advance!

you can buy a new one glass/digitizer and replace it yourself or via service center.
Cracked screen or LCD as well
I'm in the same boat as @rwilpstra but my damage was due to a hammer which bounced out of my hands over my shoulder and landed on it 7ft away :crying: The glass is shattered, the touch screen is unresponsive but the image underneath is OK (none of the usual liquid "pooling"). An engineer for the insurance company has looked at it briefly and said its uneconomical to repair as the "touch screen is broken". He's sending it me back so I thought I'd have a go (I've done a couple of cracked phone screens so not a total noob)
My possibly stupid questions are:
On the XTZ is there any chance the LCD could be damaged even though its not visibly damaged? I'm guessing not but someone who knows about LCDs may know different.
Are the cheap Chinese replacement touch screens any good or do you get what you pay for? They don't seem to be Sony branded.
I take it the touch screen always comes with the glass and digitizer?
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.
Hey fellas!
I've been using my opx since it came out and I would never pick a different phone, but recently my front glass cracked after falling. The display is fine, but every service I went to tells me they only replace both. Is there a way to replace just the broken glass? Also where could I get a spare one? Is Aliexpress good enough?
TIA
Same thing here mate. You can buy just the screen, but replacing just the screen is very hard. I haven't bought the screen myself so I can't help you with that.
The process will be pretty similar to this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhSAmai8OKk .
I wouldn't recommend trying to repair it yourself.
