There not cheap and you would have to replace it yourself (easy to do if you take your time)

Hello , i had the same problem ..i met with an accident n my touchscreen broke but my LCD was intack...but i had to change the whole LCD with the touchscreen cuz they r interconnected it costs me around 8000Rs.(Around 150$ )
yeah guys my htc prophet middle of the screen is dead & i upgraded not knowin so,now i cant go any further,tried the remote screen alignment but i keep gettin an error,any ideas?
Sorry, for your Prophet. I had the same mistake, and I must send the Neo back. For me good luck in the garantee time. It`s a mistake in the touch screen.
same here. just use your finger to align the screen instead of the stylus. my screen is dead in the middle & also near the middle of the keyboard. annoying as hell.
you can get a new lcd screen from ebay for like $30. or send it for repair somewhere.
i'm getting my touch pro soon. my prophet served me well for almost 3 years.
I'm sceptical that I'll get a response, but here goes nothing!
I don't know how where or when, but I lost my volume control button.
Does anyone have a dead HD that can sell the volume up/down button?
Thanks for reading
can't help you but curious as to how you lost it?
Maybe a dummy phone of the HD can be found on eBay with hope that the part is a exact replica. I was holding the Diamond dummy phone and the buttons seemed like the real thing.
Do you mean the thing that part of the back cover? I think looking for the back cover itself could be cheaper .
Hi
It's not part of the back cover, it's actually the volume up/down button.
I tried the dummy phones, but they just have a moulding
I spoke to HTC and they will only repair if I send in ($$$) and the don't just sell the button.
I suspect it fell by being squeezed somehow and flicking out.
grrrr

oh no, it seems you're right after all. I checked my other backcover, and there it was. I didn't loose it at all, it's just that I never moved it to my new cover.
cheers man!!
LOL!
Why'd you get a new cover? Was it, by chance, an attempt to get rid of the creaking sounds every time you handled the phone or used the touch screen? Did it work?
nope, it was because I scratched it!
Hello guys, from around 1-2 Mounths my Volume Down Key is broken.. so its not totally broken.
I think from a long use of my Blackstone and alot of flashing that is the reason why Down is broken also its strange that is not totaly broken, you know that when you remove the back cover the volume buttons are really small and they look black like some kind of plastic so exactly the plastic of the down volume key is broken and now im able to see under that black plastic the metal.. so with fingers i can press it so i can flash new ROMs without a problem but didn`t work when the cover is there and the volume down button just can`t do anything.. i think that other users here can have the same problem because in all Blackstone this is the same material used and etc so if anyone have expirience like this or any suggestion how can i fix this will be very cool
thanks in advance
Funny, my blackstone has the exact same physical problem, making the vol down key more difficult to press, the lower half of the internal one that black plastic you mention on mine is broken.
I read in the hints of the blackstone wiki that if your phones under warranty you could try to get the carrier to fix it, but thats not an option for me since I pulled mine completely apart.
I think its best if you can substitute the broken plastic with something maybe, I really haven't bothered for mine since the button still actually works with the case on it just needs a firmer press.
I have repaired plastic damage on pc cases before (broken front door hinges and such), I just used superglue, some of those plastic 5.1/4" or the 3.1/2" ATA clips you get on some cases, and a stanly.
Im sure I could carve out a small piece plastic that would work.
If you really want to go one further, then what I can suggest is taking the two plastic back covers off your phone, and actually repairing the black plastic part on the back cover, my guess is you could use a couple of layers of heat shrink and glue and with enough time and effort achieve a good result, see, the actual volume button PCB hopefully isnt damaged for yours, as it isn't for mine, and if thats the case then its actually just that internal black cover that is a tiny bit broken.
I fix it today and i will explain how if anyone have the same problem to know what to do its very easy for around 1 minute work and now work perfect:
Because of the broken half plastic of the volume down button the problem was that when im with back cover and i press the volume down key didn`t work because the back cover dont button when is pressed cannot press the volume down button that is on the device.. because all is so tinny and this black plastic that is on the button is around 1/10 of the milimeter very very tinny but on the same time this is enought the button to cannot be pressed. So i remove the back cover and from paper tape i cut one litle squere with the size of the button .. but because the paper tape is really really tinny i put 3-4 paper tapes in one they to become more chik then i apply the paper tape exactly on the down button and then put the back cover so now when i press the volume down button work again because this paper tape help the button to be pressed
Very easy fix for 1 minute.. of course better will be if you don`t have problems like this.. but when heppan you know what to do
nice work!
Looking back at the images I took when replacing my touchscreen and lcd, I noticed that the part of plastic that does suffer the damage isn't actually a part of the outer shell casing, but is actually applied in some way over the top of the soldered buttons on the tiny volume PCB (& ribbon), therefore, you could always take off the shell, remove the pcb with tweesers, apply a small it of electrical tape, and put it back together to achieve a more permanent result
I should've done this when i fixed my screen, I might look into fixing it in the above way in the near future as the volume down button doesnt work that well currently.
I did have exactly the same problem with my volume down key....
Because I still was in the period of the guarantee I sent my phone back to HTC repair center I get it back after 2 weeks with a new volume down key (they changed that broken very very thin plastic) and now it works again perfectly!

The question is if you have a Hardware problem like this broken plastic do u need to re flash to stock ROM when you are going to ask for repair? or when you dont have any problem with the device.. because the volume down key have nothing to do with the software etc do u can go to ask for repair with costum rom?

No way you always have to flash the stock rom (and stock spl!!! they check if "olinex" is there in bootloader!) when you send your phone to the repair center... so did I.
Although this broken vol key has nothing to do with the software the repair center has done a complete test of the phone. And this includes flashing the newest stock rom again. Yes, although I have flashed the latest official HTC rom when I send it to repair center they do that again (after they repaired my device)!! So you always get a completely blank phone back from this repair center.
(spoken from the repair center here in germany but I think this is always the same in every country)
I ask because here in Bulgaria i think we do not have official HTC repair center.. so when i buy the device from somewhere they give me 2 years waranty but from them i mean.. if i have troubles i need to go to the places from where i buy the device and they will repair it.. they will not send it to HTC official or anything else..
thats is the reason why i ask you

same here in germany... i get the name/adress for this repair center from my shop where i bought my touch hd. And then I had the choice if I send my touch hd to my shop (and then they send it to this adress) or I send it myself to the repair center.
I think it'll be the same in other countries. HTC has "partners" in every country for such repair/warrenty things. For germany the repair center is called "arvato services solutions GmbH" (so not an official HTC firm I think)
Hi there.
After one month, the phone starts to tap himself in the bottom of the touchscreen. It happens on safe mode and even in TWRP so I think it's a physical problem.
I've recorded a video showing the issue:
youtube dot com watch?v=7wYU-IhQaKQ (cannot post links yet)
Anyone with a similar problem? I cannot change it since I bought it in USA during a travel, I'm from Chile.
i got one that the same part of the touch screen stopped working. i think you should consider sending it back in some way
Mine also not working bottom part of phone
Soft keys not working
On my moto x style the Back, Home and Multitasking Bottons are Not working but in locked state I can use mic, unlock and camera button. All other area on display the touch is sensed and works but on the soft buttons area the touch is not sensed and the buttons are not working. I cannot use my mobile because of this. All it started with ghost touch, then multitask button got unresponsive.
I called to Motorola support. They advised me to FDR. Even after this I m not getting the buttons to work. So now they have advised me to return the device at repair center.
khagolsan, what was your resolution to this? I am having the same problem.

I tried unwillingly resetting the phone 2 times (once soft reset and once hard reset) as instructed by the call center expert ( ) of motorola but nothing worked. I also lost valuable call logs and SMS in doing this .
Then they suggested me to visit service center. The service center person diagnosed it as a display problem and kept the handset for 10 days for display replacement. A week back only I got it replaced free of cost, since handset was in warranty .
Now I am using it, let's hope now it will not have any problem.
