[Q] My screen broke. Quick question: Are all digitizers for the 3D the same? - HTC EVO 3D

I dropped my phone and the screen cracked. I remember purchasing the wrong digitizer for a friend's HTC phone a few years back. Apparently, that model has a few different options. Is there only one option for the 3D? Thanks.

I just replaced mine, just go with this one.
And, its a good idea to replace the LCD and the digitizer at the same time. Otherwise its really difficult to replace. Anymore questions just ask. :good:

Amazon Housing
I ordered this housing for my phone. It was time for a white one. It looks amazing. I did this because it comes with the adhesive to put the screen on. All you do is peel the plastic off the adhesive then drop the screen assembly in, paying attention to where the cables are going.
ebay screen assembly
This is the assembly I used. It works.
Sorry I forgot the link lol.

broke the glass between the most surface layer and the LCD screen..? how to repair

i accidentally let my HD fell on the ground one day when i get off my car..
when i picked it up i found that there's a crack on the screen, and the phone won't turn on until i pull out the battery and put it back
initially i thought it would be the damage to the LCD screen, but seeing the boot up screen i see no damage to the LCD, instead feels like there's a protection glass between the touch surface and the LCD screen... which is broken by now
is there any way to get it repaired? i'm living in China and i bought the HD from UK...
I think the part that you are looking for is the touch screen part. Try looking at ebay for some spare parts, maybe you can try to fix it yourself at home.
I am so sorry man. I can really feel you pain.
I would advice you to contact HTC directly and explain them the problem. I am sure they would get back to you with a solution.
Good Luck.

Hmm.. I thought the touchscreen shouldn't be usable if that's the touch screen part..? But it's still usable, just the crack is ugly on such an amazing device...
I don't think with my handwork I should try this myself disassembling my HD.. It would be stupid if I break something

Hmm, thanks mate.
Anyway, I was just wondering, if that glass is just for protection for such a enormous screen (I noticed Diamond don't have that class, you can see some waves on the LCD if you press hard enough; and at the same time mine broken but touchscreen still as sensitive as ever), maybe we can just customize some tempered glass like the iPhone screen and replace the original one?
It's a shame that it's so fragile, with the phone selling such a price. I could buy an LCD TV with the same price..
Any technicians can confirm what does that glass actually exists for?
You need something like this:

Yeah, it's with screen protector.. But I don't think there's any help with just a slice of plastic sticking on the screen..
Anyway, the problem is I dropped it while it's in the stock pouch, screen parallel with the ground... Kinda lying on the ground
I AM SOORY , i spesk very little english and I am so sorry man. I can really feel you pain.
i have same problem with the glass that between the most surface layer and the LCD screen.
what happen with you ? and where ?
glass also broker
My phone screen also cracked but it works fine (both the touch function and the screen as no LCD spillage), the only thing is the hairline cracks on the screen (it seems that there is a glass between the touch screen and the lcd screen - i sent it to service here in Greece and said they need 320 Euros to replace the screen and casing !!
I'm looking for the best alternative solution on EBAY but i'm confused.
Is this what i need?

Replacing front display (digitizer?)

Hi there!
I didn't put a screen protector on my TD2 -and over time it has become more scratched than expected. I'd like to replace the front display -I guess that is the one called the digitizer, or?
http://cgi.ebay.com/Touch-Screen-Di...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item4837633bd0
What are the chances for getting an original HTC at ebay?
Did anybody do this replacement with success?
Cheers
No one?
check this out too!!!
more expensive and not a word about oem product!!!
So... oem digitizer with just 19$ .... hmmmm! don't know!!!!
Perhaps this guide can help you.
Hopefully it's not permanently attached to the LCD like the ATT Fuze is. I took my Fuze apart and destroyed the LCD while trying to install a new digitizer. Apparently they use some sort of extremely strong glue between the digitizer and LCD...
Hopefully not.. But I think it's only glued to the frame.. I don't really know what kind of glue to use for the new one though...

Sorry to tell you all that the Digitizer is permanently attached with LCD. I know this because I was drop my D2 and went to service center. They change to front cover (case) which was broken when droped. when I get it back they give me back my old front cover and I notice that the digitizer is stick with over part.....
When I ask the service's counter. They told me that they have to change the new digitizer because it come with whole part.. not saparated.
Sorry for my english....
Hi Guide144, you say that when you got the digitizer back it sticked with the 'over part'. To my ears that sounds like the FRAME and not the LCD? Are you sure that it's also attached to the LCD?

Sorry for lag of my understanding, Yes the digitizer is stick with front frame, not a LCD. In my case, I ask the service to change my front cover because it broke and they change the front cover + digitizer.... because it stick together.
Hope this would clear all out.
Hi guys,
i replaced today the broken digitizer of my topaz.
Got one for $60 from ebay, with a screen (i wasn't sure if it was a screen problem or digitizer so i got both.)
you need to unstick the old one from the housing and attach the new one. i didn't use extra glue/stick , since the old one was left on the casing.
cheers
Thanks mistral82cy! Thanks for sharing -now I feel a little more up to going ahead with the operation
Hi! Could you please tell me how much the service center charged you to get the new cover and digitizer installed?
I've to change mine, as well!
Thanks a lot
I would suggest finding the parts list for the phone and finding out exactly what digitizer is needed then buy one online from somewhere such as e-bay. I did this with my G1 replaced it myself and it worked wonderfully. Research before you buy otherwise you might end up buying the wrong one or a clone which doesnt work as well
I dun it myself, buying one digitizer from ebay, getting the old one out was a little tricky , but appart from that it was easy(and i had to do it again, as i dit not secure it properly and there was dust comming underneath the screen from the sides. Any questions you could ask, but it is pretty straight forward.
pistonripper changed his housing, so he would have also replaced his digitizer, so you might want to check with him

replace digitizer on your own!
Hello everyone!
My digitizer broke last week, because i droped my Diamond!
But don't worry I am a rookie in technical things and I managed it to replace my digitizer on my own.
Don't waste money on repair charge from repairshops! Ok... you loose your garantie but the Cellphone is allready old. The new HD2 is already available!
Just buy the digitizerscreen at ebay... i've paid 60 € and then use this manual:

Now it works like before.

HTC Pure Digitizer or LCD

It's a bit hard to see on the photos but if its new can you not return it? if not then you need to look closely between the digitizer and the screen and see if the damage is just the top layer or the screen, if it is the top layer then just replace your digitizer!

Every single post of yours is a website promotion.
Chill.
Out.
Seriously.
As always this site is a big help. Just ordered the items, and thanks to the guide I'm fairly confident I will pull it off. For me the bottom 2cm's of the screen have shifted about 1cm to the left somehow. The digitizer still works "perfectly" but it's kinda hard to hit the right buttons like that

Which replacement parts?

Hey everyone. I dropped my phone today......my brand new phone :'(
Screen fractured on the top, but the phone still works, touch screen is in tact, all functions still work like normal.
Question:
What do I need to buy now to replace the damaged screen, because I don't LIKE it!
I see that people are selling the outer glass screen lens like this, for $20ish
http://www.ebay.com/itm/U-For-Samsu...ltDomain_0&hash=item4d0314f1ff#ht_3326wt_1159
and then people are selling complete LCD with Digitizer (whatever that is) for $225
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-F...276?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35be08ef4c
The phone is working fine...it's just the glass. Which one do I have to get?
Thanks so much!

If the glass is glued to the digitizer, then why would so many people be selling the glass alone without the digitizer if there wasn't any use for it?

Cracked Screen Replacement Recommendation

Today, the screen of my beloved lte shattered. If it just looks like broken glass on the top of the lcd and the touch screen is functioning, what is the exact part that I need to replace called?
Has anyone replaced their screen in a local shop in Orange County, CA before that can recommend a place?
How about reputable members here or online vendor?
How much would something like this cost?

The glass/digitizer and LCD come as one piece, you can separate it wil a bit of patience. Just something to keep in mind

Called my sprint store and they said they won't touch any cracked screen. Didn't offer to buy the replacement part though. Maybe I can try asking them again. Did you guys install the screen yourself?

Replacing it isn't difficult. Read around. There's been a few threads here where people have discussed it.
Sent from my EVO
Damn I just watched the YouTube video on how to replace the screen and the part with the heat gun looks pretty hard. That's actually the part that I messed up on my og evo as well.
I might just bite the bullet and but a new lte on Craigslist. Was thinking about trying an S3 but they are so expensive compared to our LTE...

I replaced my cracked screen with the etradesupply digitizer + LCD, and it's not the same. I mean it works, but it's...different. Touch recognition seems a little wonky, have a few stuck pixels, the glass doesn't have an oleophobic treatment, and I'm starting to get dust under my screen. Like, a lot of dust.*
If I had to do it again, I'd just have HTC repair it. Of course, it takes 10 days and they wipe your phone, but at least it's fixed properly.
*I had a local shop do the work for me. It's possible some of these issues are from the installation and not the screen itself.

[Q] Replacement Part Help

As you can see, my screen is not functioning properly. I kinda closed the car door on the phone and it dropped on the floor. The outside screen is not cracked. However, the inside seems like it is.
I will try to fix it but not sure what I need to buy. I think I only need to buy a new LCD but I could be wrong. Can someone help with this?
