Hey all, so this happened earlier today.

And it got progressively worse and now I can't see anything. Was looking at replacements and was wondering if I needed the replacement screen and digitizer with or without the frame assembly?
Anyone deal with this before?
Thanks!
Not familiar with that phone but any impact great enough to break the display can cause internal damage. Direct contact isn't necessarily needed as high G loading can damage chipsets internally by breaking bonds.
In the future use a good case to help lessen the G force loading when dropped. Urethane/polycarbonate cases like the Zizo Bolt do well and can even enhance usability.
Use -all- OEM parts, and replace the battery if older then 6 months or if it shows -any- sign of damage. Best to use a ESD mat/wristband and observe all ESD handling protocols especially room RH ie >40%. Once the individual assemblies are out of circuit they are much more vulnerable to ESD damage.

I tried searching and couldn't find an answer for my question.
I just recently purchased a refurbed Asus Transforer TF101 + dock. I want to protect the screen of course, but also want to protect the back. I really love the look and texture of the back of the tablet. I want to get a clear protector for it, but I'm afraid because of the TF101's unique texture, the clear protectors(wet installs) won't properly adhere to it. Does anyone have experience + pictures with their install?
Thanks
This is a skinomi techskin. I bought it because it was the first product out there for the transformer, maybe the new stuff is thinner/better but this works fine. Its a soft film like invisibleshield/bodyguardz/phantomskinz and as you can see, the material actual conforms slightly to the texture, at least to the dimpled parts. What might not be apparent here is there are still some marks from the soapy liquid used for lubrication on installation. Its been on the tablet since May of last year and it still hasn't cleared completely up, so i would suggest getting a colored one if that kind of stuff bothers you.
Fits in the dock fine, just takes a little bit of extra push to get it totally in there to engage the lock due to it being slightly thicker.

I am in need of replacing my device (Inc2) and would like to upgrade somewhat in the process. I am unfortunately laid off and in college full time so trying to save money.
I have looked at some devices with cracked screens. I need to know opinions on if these tend to develop future issues aside from screen, is the replacement process doable at a home workbench, and suggestions exactly which parts to purchase and where.
Below is a couple of pics of a device in the condition I am looking into. Pic of screen off and screen on.

Screen off
Also posting a link for replacement part. Is this what I am looking for as a repair in full? Are all same quality? Should I look at needing to replace anything else?

Thanks in advance for all replies. Hope to be joining the people in this forum section soon.
The screen itself is fused to the glass, so replacing a cracked screen on this phone will be more expensive than on phones that have separate glass and LCD components. There's already a thread here discussing the screen replacement process. Also, here's a short video of what's involved in disassembling the phone.
Was testing out my Desire X's camera and my butter finger'ness came back and it slipped, smashed the ground. The screen looks fine, it just smashed open st the bottom. The battery doesn't really fit in properly, but if you push it in hard it fits in properly, but the device doesn't turn on.
There is also this two clips, does it have anything to do with proving battery power?

My question is, can this device still be recoverable as its not as bad. And I had paid money for it. Cheapest way to fix this? I've tried pushing everything into place but it just flings out.
When connecting the device to the PC it has a blinking led at the top which is red. Which blinks on and off.
Edit - the device turns on just fine oo freaking strong device.
Yeah, should be fixable. I think you'll need this as replacement and hopefully it will work fine then. Didn't test myself, I only had to replace screen assembly some time ago, but this part is easy to replace, provided that you've got the right screw driver available.
Just brought it, i really like it in all aspects except the annoying rainbow effect, i can even see it without tilt the tablet, especially in landscape, just wondering EVERYONE have this problem? after some time of use you get used to? any way of fix it?
I was thinking of change it but it doesn't make sense if all units are faulty
Rainbow effect:

I am unable to access your screen picture but my tablet is perfectly normal and has none of the aberrations you describe. I was in a shop yesterday and handled the two display models and they were fine too. So I would suspect a fault with yours.
Here are the pics http://imgur.com/a/mpuTI#0
So your tablet doesn't have any of this when you tilt it?
I noticed a rainbow effect when I first got mine, but now I don't see it at all unless I really look for it.

No, none of that. Using the same Google page,I have tilted it in every direction and it is a clean high quality IPS screen with no artifacts.

My so left it on the kitchen dresser. When I picked it up (because it was bootlooping) the water came dripping out. I think most of it was in the seams between the cover, but there were some substantial drops in it, but only on the plastic parts.
I placed it immediately in rice to dry with the back removed. It still booted afterwards, and everything seemed to be functional (wifi, rotation, camera etc.). Only charging doesn't work. Ran battery endurance test to heat it up a little extra, but charging still doesn't work.
I see some corrosion a little above and to the left of the battery. Other than that I cant spot anything unusual. How do I check which part is the problem?
Yikes.
You could... send it back to HTC, and let them tell you what is wrong with it, then perhaps buy the part yourself and install it.
With any electronic, I would disassemble it and assure that every part is clean & securely fit.
Maybe the smart chip in the battery shorted? Maybe only the battery needs replacing. I have no idea how to confirm that.
Good luck, man.
