Hi. My special needs son used a set of keys as a stylus and has made a couple of holes in the screen. I am in the UK and can buy a new screen for £65 on eBay but can find no instructions for fitting it. The firm will fit it for me but this cost an extra £25.
Anyone help me out please with some information?
Thanks,
Doug
Can get a replacement if I knew how to fit it! Anyone know please?

It's amazing what you can find if you use the SEARCH function instead of bumping your own post the same day....if you were that desperate for it try searching yourself next time?....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43836
In fact, my friend, I used the search function before I did anything and it came up with about a thousand hits of which the first hundred were no good!
I am quite desperate for this information, hense the bump before it went off the page. Keep smiling.....
Doug
Learn to use the search engine? It came up straight away if you use the 'all words' function....and I attached the link for you but you obviously haven't realised as 'you are' desperate for the info not 'you were'...
Oh well. I'd just pay the £25....
Thanks for the link anyway. I have downloaded it but it looks so complicated, I will pay someone to do it anyway.
Sorry to be a bit sarky, the link was appreciated.

Another reason to get the screen vendor to fit the screen is that there are 2 possible screens for the wizard - unless you have opened the phone before purchase you will not know which, so if they post you 'a' wizard screen you may get the wrong one and I doubt they'll take it back. If you send them your device it's their problem if it's the wrong one, just watch they don't blame your board for being faulty and try and charge you anyway.
Some vendors sell magician screens saying they fit wizards and this is true in some cases but not all. The 'wrong' screen will display strange colours and look washed out or not display anything.
From experience, most ebay screen vendors etc don't actually know this.
For the total price ( £90) why not try HTCEuropes's service dept if you have a t-mobile vario? They don't touch o2 devices and may be slightly more than £90 but they will fit the correct screen and your warranty will not be invalidated.
I damaged my black Trinity's battery cover.
Anyone know where I can purchase one?

I would try to e-mail HTC support.
Let's see how good their support really is. The manual is not very clear about how to remove the cover. Some picture to show how will be a great help for many of their customers.
If their support is good they will send you a new one for free.
HTC Support
Thanks! I'll contact HTC tomorrow.
Yes, it's very difficult to remove the battery cover and there is literally no instructions of how to do so.
Also, I really dislike the glossy finish. In fact I dislike it so much that I'm very tempted to go back to my Prophet.

HTC´s international support in England might be the only ones able to help, not sure if HTC America offers the Trinity already...

Ok, so I'm thinking of buying my friend's ATT 8525, but he had a malfunction with his camera so he had to remove it. Right now I have a Cingular 8125, could I take out my camera and put it into the 8525?
Thanks in advance!

Well only if it's the same part No. Download the manuals for the two phones and look up the parts - it'll show you pictures as well. You can get them here: www.mikechannon.net
To be honest I think you'll be very luck if they are the same part. I'd be more curious about what he did with the original camera and what fault it was that made him remove it completely. You can probably get a second hand camera pretty cheap off a parted out Hermes on the net. There are a lot of broken Hermes out there with white screen issues so I guess there are lots of parts available. Might even get the part from someone here.
Mike
Yea, I'll look up the manuals and if not, I'll check for parts on eBay.
Thanks for the input!
hello where can i find a case like this for my at&t htc tilt 2 i love these types of book cases with the flap part to access the screen please reply back asap thanks

Hi,
I got my Kaiser Screen broken. The phone still functioning, even touch still working/responding. There're cracks & part of LCD darkened & I worry it might get worse by time/use.
Question:
HTC no longer sell devices in my country. What is the reasonable price + shipping? Any reputable seller that ships to my country & payment method?
Thanks for tips.
Edit:
Got the screen replaced & working perfectly!
Use the 4 screw method, without opening the base, took me 20 mins only
Thanks to Mike Channon, Erwinpiero & many others that fixed themselves & posted on this forum!
Well i'd say eBay is your best bet and I wouldn't pay more than £30 (450,000rupiah) delivered for one. Plenty of people selling them from China, just make sure it has a digitiser, and it's the right model. Oh and pay by something secure like Paypal so you have something to fall back on incase its a bad sale.

Thanks.
I think that's reasonable approach, but I'm looking if any member have dealt with particular dealer that delivers .. something that minimize the risk (at least, it's the right item and got delivered). Yes, we can fall back, but I don't think the process is easy, and especially Pay Pal in ID has no legal vehicle, the site refers to SG. That's the reason I try not going blindly if there're any referrals.
In any case, I'll look around, and update when the screen is fixed ..
Useful links
To anyone looking for info, here're good ones (apart from Mike Channon's site)

(using this method, was what I did, and changed the screen in 20 mins)
And I learnt a lot from our own forum here:

Good luck to everyone.
I haven't replaced a screen on my xda stellar yet but i did have to replace one on my xda 2.
I purchased mine of ebay at a store. e-shop I believe it was called. I would recommend that you dismantle the phone first. There were 2 screens available for my xda 2 and the only way to see which one i needed was to see the connectors on the back of the screen. It may be the same case for the tytn 2.
Also make sure you are purchasing a screen with the digitiser attached. It is possible to replace the touchscreen part but believe me it's not worth the hassle.
Good luck
Thank you very much! Unlike TyTn / Dopod 838Pro, Kaiser screen is luckily pretty standard. The replacement was easy as I got the one complete set (screen & digitizer).
It's now fixed & working well.
That's great news!! I just came on to point you towards the service manual for disassembly (google htc kaiser service manual for anyone else who is interested).
I'm considering replacing the external housing of my stellar, it has seen better days! Having seen the procedure to take the pda apart i'm having second thoughts. Glad you found it easy to replace the screen it looks far worse than what i went through with my xda 2

DEAR
Please guide me to the "the 4 screw method, without opening the base" becuse i have a broken lcd and anew lcd from ebay (25$) and the tools, so everything is ready for action!!!
any instructions, photos, details, pic...etc. would be highly apreciated.
but I need an easy method to do that without dismantling the base and remove the "void" label.
Many thanks in advance
