Looks like a moisture issue. Was it ever came contact with water? If so, the same might get corrected automatically, if you keep it aside, say for 10 days or so (depends). Otherwise will have to take it to the service center, and if it is under warrenty, they will get your touch screen replaced for free, but they will make sure that there was no water contact (there is a mechanism inside the device, by which they can know whether water went inside or not). Otherwise, you will have to pay...

My screen have a similar problem, but only on upper left corner. A small fade. I think i'll have to change my screen soon too.
@Jyot: I found one screen on ebay at 17,99 USD. Very cheap. In my city (here in Brazil) it cost 131,00 USD. 1/3 of Gene's price.

I guess these YouKnowWhats have made a standard pricing throughout the world (So that people go for a new device than repair one). Ha Ha I need to get a battery and casing for my Vox (can't use ebay) and I am scared to death
Really is a s**t these companies who overprice repair parts of yours products to force people buy a new device. It's really a shame.
@Addicted: Some sellers on ebay ships worldwide. If you have a paypal account is easy to buy there. In some cases is the only solution to buy for a decent price.

Unfortunately I don't have a credit card and nor am I eligible for one
thankyou sir...now lemme send it for repairs and then demand awesome roms...
For those who want to change your screen yourselves I have an advice. Before buy a new lcd, keep in mind that lcd for old gene is diferent from lcd of new gene. So take care before buy a replacement.
thnx for the advice
Reviving the topic ...
As my gene is no longer under warranty I decided to change the screen. It worked very well. Much cheaper than sending in for repair. I spent only 17.99. Looks like I have a new device.
To disassemble your gene just follow this link.

My 2 weeks old Kaiser slipped from my hands and the LCD broke !! I am looking for a good repair shop in Belgium or any links from which I can procure a new LCD screen real fast! Any pointers would be helpful. Also, does anyone know if the LCD screen is covered under the HTC warranty ??
whipout ur htc carepack, call the number nearest you. They probably would fix it for you for a small charge. Keep in mind, repair shops aren't htc specialists.... So my suggestion is that you contact htc and see what they can do for you.
i feel for you :{
my girlfriend just got her LCD cracked from a roller coaster (stupid safety bars). probably going to take a few weeks for us to get a replacement screen since they don't even sell the kaiser here.
she keeps subconsciously trying to touch the screen on her interm dumb-phone... and sighs.
do it yourself! buy a replacement screen on ebay, and look for replacement instructions on this forum
how easy does the screen crack if you drop it? just for arguments sake shouldn't the phones be able to sustain a reasonable drop? After all you are constantly using it in your hands so it is likely you would drop it at least once.
Put this under you favorites

My Tilt has only 2 buttons on the right, the power and camera buttons. http://cnn.cn/shop/images/IMG_5052.JPG shows there are 3 buttons. What's the 3rd button?
I found that on expansys website while i was checking for a good screen protector... Have a look here :
http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~unit~HTC_TyTN_II-972~area~repairs.htm
I think 169 $ is pretty good for a whole LCD replacement?
Hope it helps.

Well, I've taken up a hobby of repairing all makes/models of phone that I can get parts for, so I'd be exceptionally grateful if you could provide some info as to WHERE and HOW you get them so cheaply....
TIA!
there are a few shopping mall in china that sell only spare part for pc, mobile phones and all micro electronics part.
and because most of the oem and third party parts are all made in china, its always cheaper to buy from there, I travel to china a lot, and in search for some parts, I did come across some tytn II parts.
but then you need to live in china or hong kong just like me, so you can go back and forward.
I can also let you know that only micro electronics parts and mobile spare parts are cheaper in china, PC stuff are cheaper in hong kong, as well as back up service.
you need to go to wha qheung ( my own english translation) street along the china railway system, most of them do bulk buy and send overseas, but its best to be there in person, as you cannot trust them sometime.
next time i'll get the address when I go over again, but i'll don't think you will travel there.

Folks,
I would like to take this opportunity and confess. I, mostly a silent reader and user of the forum sold my blackberry on ebay few months ago after using Xplodes 6.1 rom. I always liked blue angel due to it's big screen but never could use it trustworthy for my job as I need emails and that too pushed and errorless and effortless. So I was using blackberry for work and BA for fun. Ever since Xplodes 6.1 I sold my bberry and used BA for emails and fun. and saved some money on service providers data charges.
Sad news is I broke my BA today (cable connecting LCD is torn while trying to clean up inside out. stupid me don't ask how and why I did it but a simple part connecting LCD and on slider is torn).
So I may be going back to blackberry or any other Pocket PC Hermes or Tilt which they offer in US.
If you guys have any suggestions let me know. But I would like to take an opportunity to the excellent work done by lot of great Guru's here.
Thank you all
Just bought it
Got Kaiser from ebay for 380 USD. Should be with me in 3 days. I hope I made the right choice. Would miss you all and most importantly my BA.
Hi.
Kaiser has a 2.8" screen and to me...2.8" screens are a totally different experience compared to 3.5". Although, kaiser's screen will be definitely better than ba's...size always matters.
I have also broken my lcd's cable :-/ and now i'm waiting for a new one from ebay.
Have fun with your kaiser
I want cable
I would love to have my BA fixed even if I bought kaiser. I thought you would have to replace LCD as I don't see cable and lcd as different things in BA. Can you please point me where on ebay and for how much you got the cable. If possible please post a link and I would buy it in an a spit.
Yes..you're right. It's not just the cable...i will replace the lcd. I bought it for 42 euro(including shipping) but it's not here yet and i'm not even sure if the lcd is the problem. :-/ (i have a white screen on my blueangel..so i hope it will work with the new lcd)
I can inform you when i get the screen and if everything is ok i'll tell you the seller's name.
For $125:
1. I-mate Jasjar - G3 device w/Jwright rom
2. Docking station (usb and a/c charger)
3. 2gb SD card – Sandisk Ultra II
For additional $100:
1. BT Stereo Headphones ( http://www.bluetake.com/Products/BT450Rx.htm)
2. BT Caller-Id Headset (http://www.jabra.com/Sites/Jabra/NA-US/products/Pages/JabraBT800.aspx)
JJ works great and willing to show livecam of it or might put video of it on youtube soon. There are minor scratches which are cosmetic only. Also, I cracked the screen a couple of months ago and had it professionally replaced by PPC techs for around $200 in itself, so screen is literally brand new. However, there is a very small cosmetic crack on bottom of the screen FRAME and not the screen. It is very minimal and does not affect screen rotating or screen dispaly in any way. It is just cosmetic. Email me if interested.
waiting on you to give me a reply back in my email i'm interested in buying lets set it up okay.....and if you got pics that would be great my email is [email protected]
i m interested too.Email me on [email protected]
I have broken JasJar also - who is PPC?
My USB port pulled out. Do you have somebody who will solder it back in or repair USB port? Here in Memphis, Tn. USA I would have a better chance of finding a polar bear! [email protected]
HI buddy!
Intrested in ur imate JASJAR. I'm in oman, where r u from?
send me pics of the mobile :- [email protected]
bye
Do you want to send this to India ...and would you bear shipping costs? PM if interested. I might even bear the cost if its not too much Alternatively if you are based in USA or shipping to my USA address is cheaper (New Jersey) we could do that

Your JasJar for Sale - I am interested
It sounds like a awful lot of people are wanting to buy your JasJar! Count me in also! I wonder if the JasJar is going extinct because they seem to be harder to find and less support? I love mine, and have not found anything else that seriously competes with the JasJar or other renamed equals. Hugh

Hi,
I have been using LEO more than 1 year and I was very happy with it. But I faced with many problems with my LEO in last 2 months. I never used any costom roms during first one year. Generally I carried it in my back pocket (now I suggest you, don't do that.) . 2 months ago it reset itself and restarted like first start of winmo, it prepare itself for first use. I lost many data at that point , then I think that this was a chance to try custom roms and android. I load a custom rom and android in SD card, all was ok for a few days, but then I started get SODs and WSODs several times in a day. I apply many things that I learned from this forum ( by the way thanks everybody really I learned many many things about HD2) task 29, task 2a, auto backlight off, hard reset, soft reset, original ROm loading etc etc:
What I have done when I got SOD,
-remove battery,
-place battery,
-Then sometimes it worked as expected but more times I got WSOD,
-when I got WSOD (at the begining installing custom rom via usb were ok but last 2 weeks it wasn't enough) then I perform task 2a, tak 29, then I install original ROM from SD card,
-then I perform HSPL,
-install radio (generally 2.14.50...)
-install costum rom
-then all become ok.
But then a few hours later I got SOD again
I suddenly realize that when HD2 a litle bit bended ( like in my pocket when I was walking) SOD occured. I observed a litle more than I decide to dissasemble HD2( because it has no warranty ), I couldn't find any cable or connector losen. It is strongly possible that Main board defected while in my pocket.
I searched forum and I find one who has same problem and he/she replaced Mainboard then he/she never get SOD anymore.
So please help me where can I buy a mainboard for HD2? I prefer buy it online, because I am sure that I can't buy it in Turkey.
Thanks for your help.
you are going to have to google that one or send your phone to htc for repairs
i dont think you can get hold of one other than from htc themselves!
i also put my hd2 in my back pocket...it fits perfectly doesn't it ?

yeap it fits perfectly,
I sent it to service, 2 days later they sent me a text message " mainboard defective, it have to be replaced and its cost will be 450 USD" ofcourse I reject it. So I have only one possible solution: selling it for parts on ebay or local online shopping pages.
By the way thank you.

If you bought your htc from UK, ok you have warranty in UK. But in my case I bought it when I was in US, then I came back to Turkey, and my phone hasn't warranty in Turkey and I will not visit US in the near future.

You can get one from HTC
More real modality is to buy from eBay a damaged T8585 for parts (i.e. with damaged sensor but able to boot and make calls).
i bought my HTC HD2 motherboard from gadgetsaving.com and it work perfect. they had it for the lowest price on the net. shipping was fast and the motherboard came with a 7 day money back

Would be a good idea if the site wouldn't take me all the way to check out, asked to enter a country and a region, then proceeded to tell me they only ship in USA and Canada.
I am also looking for motherboard, had been looking for quite some time too, I check eBay and such regularly, but it all comes to the seller's unwillingness to send to New Zealand. Willing to pay $85, but nobody is willing to send
Despite what some people are saying you can not buy parts directly from HTC themselves.
Excerpt from HTC repair website:
Q: Can I just buy the parts and fix my own phone?
A: We do not sell any parts directly. Link found here.
Your best bet would be to price match parts and seller reviews from Ebay and Google.
Try eBay people sell there's for parts
