Hi All...my Display gets looser and looser. (excuse me for my bad english)
Now I still have my old universal, on which the display was broken. Now I want te replace the display of my old universal with my new (1 year old) universal. I got the service manual (pdf) but when reading it I must say that it looks pretty difficult to replace the screen...
so my question if anyone had experience replacing the screen?
Regards
Arjan
Hello Arjan,
I've had my Exec in pieces quite a few times trying to fix a faulty touch screen issue.
It is quite easy to take apart and remove the screen. There should be no more than four screws to remove and the case just unclips.
The screen itself is easily removed once the case is apart. There are just three small ribbon connectors to remove. Your new screen will just slot in and you can put the connectors back on.
Clip the case back together and put the screws back in.
It shouldn't take more than 15 minutes to do it carefully. After I'd done it once it took me no more than five minutes.
Good Luck.
Thanx for the reply....
will give it a try
Hi Lakota
I replaced the screen by a new one (lcd + touchscreen) bougt on ebay but the touchscreen didn't work. After cheked all the connections I sent it back to the seller and got a new one, but the problem remains the same. Do you have any idea of what could be the problem and how to fix it?
its the csble running down from screen to jasjar. when sreen get twisted wrong way it breaks the cable inside jasjar. send to pocketpctechs.com for excellent service bro. they will even call u if there are any other issues with your device so when you receive all will be working bro.

If it's displaying the battery message, your battery might be on it's way out.

Now after continuos flashing when flashing a ROM ...its gtting stucked in the scrren alignment procedure...what to do????
Your screen is stuck in the top right corner. Try to see if there's some dirt there (maybe stuck between display and casing).
Either thay or the digitizer is gone... I believe the Hermes was dropped and the digitizer damaged at that point. Thats why it was sold. It has a point being repeatedly pressed. You'd have to replace the LCD and digitizer together.
Hey man, sorry to hear about your hermes.. those things are usually tough as nails and can take a beating.. anyways..
I moved your thread out of the mobile 6 thread and into the general thread where it shoud be.
Peace,
Josh
thanks alll...... i gave it to a HTC service centre...told them to clean the space under the display.... let us see....... any way thanks to all........
Dear try to change the battrey if same problem then it have a hardware problem try to get it repair
This issue has been covered many times before - though it is probably buried amongst lots of screen alignment and digitizer threads.
Applications close
Start Menu appears
Depending on whether you are in portrait or landscape.
It may be the screen is getting pressed, and this was thought to be the cause when the problem was first seen. However I do not believe it's a simple case of cleaning under the bezel. Erratic digitizer behaviour is now generally attributed to the digitizer connections, the lcd to d'pad flex cable or poor chip contacts on the d'pad board

hay from today morning my htc touch shows a white screen and a crack on the bottom corner of the screen.i am sure that it dint fell down.
then what may be the problem?
anyone knows pls tell me...
white screen?
When you turn on your phone, there is no smart mobility.
Crack?
Is that an LCD problem?
i have the same problem with the WHITE SCREEN. bought my ELF 3450 second hand over the net. i am from the Philippines by the way and HTC units are not yet very common here and also the parts/accessories. it worked fine for about 3 months with minor problems such as Auto-Restart/Auto Power On/OFf which was solved using the "plastic on the OMAP chip method" - tnx for the forum for the info by the way and charging problems which was also solved by buying me a aftermarket charger. but recently the problem of AUTO OFF occurred again until it did not work at all. so, i tried to check the Plastic over my chip but to no avail the fone was dead. so, i decided to head to one of our local cellphone repair shops and have my OMAP heated thinking that maybe there are just contact points inside who became loose. when we tried to power on it was good for a few minutes then i noticed the screen went darker and darker and then it was all WHITE. we restarted it but it's just WHITE. tried to send messages and call it but there is no response from the fone. i'm afraid i toast it bad or may be it's just the LCD who got toasted, i am clueless.
CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME WITHMY PROBLEM. CAN I GIVE LIFE BACK TO MY ELF? WHAT'S THE CHEAPEST & BEST SOLUTION TO THIS? THANX ...
Generally white screen problem are caused by defects in flex connecting the LCD to the mainboard or the connector itself. Try to disconnect and reconnect the LCD, if doesn't work - replace the LCD.

You warmed the OMAP? Interesting....
This problem sounds really complicated.
And im quite surprised of your 'warming' method.
I've had the exact same problem combined with the fact that my touch was resetting constantly. I was about a minute away from throwing it out of the window when I tried the plastic-piece-on-omap processor-technique described in one of the threads here. It solved the rebooting problem, but not the white screen issue. After a very frustrating couple of days where the screen started to blink and shake and then eventually turned to white alltogether, I lowered my brightness to the second stop from start, and since then I haven't experienced the white screen anymore. I believe it is heatrelated.
Whilst not being a full solution to the problem, at least it renders the phone usable.
Hope this helps anyone.
Heating the device very seldomly solves anything, but causes more problems that you originally started with.
iam using htc touch (p 3450) for nearly 18 months . (bought & using it in india ) my hand set fell two times in water and about 15 times fell on the floor (from shirt pocket) . still its working fine .
and iam using "opera mini " for browsing the internet . for some sites iam using "opera mobile " . when iam on opera mini , continueously for long ours , suddenly it turns white . never come to normal screen unless restarted . but it happens sometimes , may be because of memory or heating up of some H/W .
Hi hotchamo,
my htc touch elf hat a similary issue, and my father just "wringed" it gently until the white screen disappeared. You should try it carefully, since it may help and it won't harm. Just take in in both hands and turn them in the opposite direction, so that the case gets slightly twisted.
If that doesn't help you should open it and check the LCD flat cable connector...
Best regards,
scheutak
Again - flex connector problem. 'Wringing' it gently will eventually result in your LCD cracking, by all means - go for it, it will solve your white screen problem. Permanently.
Hello my favorite HTC HD2 is for me best device what I ever have but yesterday my touch screen stop responding and I don't know why... I try reinstall ROM but still don't work... It is plausible repair in home or i need buy something new??? Any help plz. Btw sorry for my bad English.

Hi Mato_xXx, welcome to the forum. It sounds like your digitiser ribbon cable is damaged. To be sure try flashing wm6.5 and see if it is the same. Else, see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566179 for replacement of digitiser, some good helpful people there.
OK try it

Hi guys, if someone here suffered from this kind of flickering >>VIDEO LINK.
How do you managed to fix it? What part did you change, the screen or the motherboard? Thanks. Really need some help. My phone now is unusable.
]]]]]] UPDATE 1[[[[[[[
Hi guys, just got my G2 back from the dead.
I send my G2 to a phone care in the city and they said my lcd is the problem, they changed the lcd+digitizer (the whole half of my G2 )and now the problem is gone. But When I got home I noticed vertical lines on my G2 when it is turned off, not really noticeable but if you look closely you can see the vertical lines and thinking that they change it with a low quality LCD. Even in white backgrounds you can see the lines but only if you have a clear eyes . I compared it to the original LCD and I don't see any vertical lines at all, it's all black. But the frame of the new lcd is solid like the original. So, in the future, will this new LCD survive or should I go the phone care again? Thanks!
***********UPDATE 2************
[UPDATE]
I think my G2 is working now after playing games for hours in 5 days, no flickering/stuttering/jittering noticed.
But, my IMEI was change and it was rooted jellybean when they give it to me. I don't know if they change the motherboard or the whole phone except for the body case and the new screen i purchased. I asked them about the changes of the phone because it's my second time returning the phone and the women on the counter said their tech just adjust something. I don't believe that, and then I saw the IMEI changed. I didn't ask why my IMEI was change, i'll wait til something goes wrong on my G2 and sue them. LOL.
I have some questions regarding this.
1) I'm not really sure if how an IMEI was change, is it for changing the motherboard?
2) Is it legal that they don't tell me what they change on my phone?
For now my G2 is still alive and no problem after upgrading to lollipop + root + twrp. Hope it goes all well now.

i went to lg service and they changed some filters on motherboard in 2 hours filter,EMI/Power 2 quantity i read on the paper. i was on warranty..
That looks crazy, it definitely would be a motherboard issue, or, I had a simliar issue while repairing them (I've re-sold about 20 of them) the flex ribbon sometimes gets dirty, or out of place(the one on the bottom under the speaker). You have to remove the back, then remove the speaker(6 screws I believe on the bottom, it;s an L shape). Once you do that, make sure the square flex cable is connected well, and there is nothing touching the circuit right under it(It has a plastic tape to keep it from touching).
The connector I'm referring to is right next to the USB one on the flex. For obvious reasons I got the image from ETrade supply. You can clean the connectors with 91% or higher alcohol, DO NOT use anything less.

I think i'm out of warranty because i bought it when it was newly released. Do you think lg sc will fix it by paying them cash?

When you replace your lcd they always tell you to make sure you have both connectors securely in place above the usb connector. One of them is the ground connection to your LCD!
Make sure both are fastened correctly and test before you seal your phone back together.
Keep us posted

I hope someone here share their experience on their 2nd LCD. Thanks!
:crying: :crying: :crying:
[UPDATE]
After few days of youtube and playing games, my phone started stuttering/flickering again like on my first post -_-
I paid for the new LCD that they change, should I pay another bucks for the motherboard problem? or they'll give me a refund for the new LCD I bought that didn't fix my problem? Please someone reply me asap. Thanks
This error is on mainboard. Fix it is very simple. I has lot about 10$ for this solution.sorry bbecause my english's bad.

Hi guys, i have a similar problem. I bought a new lcd on aliexpress.....that is the video of the problem....
http://www.mediafire.com/watch/glzqihgdzz12jsj/Lgg2_lcd.mp4
The strange thing is , not in every operation make the same problem. after days i see that problem usually on facebook and a lot on clash of clans .
I make also a screenshot on the clash of clans and when i open the picture the screen flickering .....
its like when the phone show some combination of color make this problem
My Lg PRO 2 Phablet did the same from first turn on, flickering on and off, very dissapointed as i had mine direct from Hong Kong and couldnt send it back. What i did was to tak all of the screws out and take the plastic back off, then re fitted the back only, no screws and turned on, no more flickering. Then i put a couple of screws in and tried again, still no flicker, then after a couple of more screws by the sim socket it started to flicker again! Now i just run the phone minus a few screws, it must be a pressure thing!
Hi, i have exactly the same problem, specially in combination of colors (green red and blue most of the time). how did you manage to fix your phone ? did you change the mainboard ? thanks for your help.
