You can order one from http://cnn.cn/shop/8525tytn-flex-cable-p-1732.html
That’s brilliant thanks, just ordered one. On the picture they have on there site I couldn’t see the black connecter which holds the cable in place. Guess ill see if it comes with it!
Thanks for you help much much appreciated.

You can get both types on ebay(uk). Look for a username of shop-uk and they have both black and gold flex types (getting one myself to fix a hermes!). I think they are £15.99 GBP
Hello everyone..I recently replace the lcd for my niki htc...I bought the screen from ebay for $35 (plus shipping). Everything works fine but sometimes when i slide the phone the screen is wably or it looks like something is not connected and it moves but when i close it and i restart it again. it's fine or if i let it for awhile like that (so it goes on and off). So my question is...Is it the manufacture that made the screen, or is it something that it hasn't been connected right?
The other question is that my digitizer is broken in the up left corner and im thinking to replace it does any one can tell me how to take of the digitizer. i have found this website :http://www.pdacenter.ru/razborka/razbor_htc_touch_dual/ but it stops at the screen it doesn't tell you about the digitizer.
And the 3rd question is about that little piece it has fallen from somewhere while i dismantling my phone, i took a picture of it so someone can tell me what it is and where it goes.
Thank you very much for looking, and sorry for the noob questions first timer dismantling a phone and i loved IT!!!
You may wana have a look at the service manual, wich can be found here:
http://www.mikechannon.net/page1.html
It says that you can not disassemble it without replacing the speaker!
When you remove the speaker you need a new one. (or at least this is how I understood it
Maybe that part is the door for the MicroSD Card slot?
no i opened the cellphone 6 to 7 times so far. all you have to do is to unscrew the small screw that keeps the speaker in place so you can have more space to work with it.
all you have to do is to take off the digitiser where it gets connected. take the screen off. and raise the little black strip where the digitizer stripwires come out and push out the digitizer. it feels liked it doesn't go out but if you push it carefully it will. they have glue it with some kind of glue that it doesn't come off the digitizer but it stays on the cellphone so you can put in place your new digitizer...
If anybody needs help... pm me or leave a reply in this thread.
speaker rubber perhaps?
I just replaced my digitizer today (bought the handset from ebay - faulty touch screen). The little rubber that covers the speaker fell out in my hand when I was dismantling mine, so maybe thats what it is (looks similair).
Oh a quick question - after replacing my digitizer, my touch screen still doesnt work, even after hard reset - when asking to 'tap screen to set up device' it wont respond to any taps. Any ideas ?

my friend i think you have a bad digitizer, some people on ebay send defective digitizer and especially when they are from china they don't really care about sending a good one.... I had to send mine back 3 times!!!! i just got the last one 3 days ago and it took me at least a month and a half to send me a working one...If you pay with paypal...Tell the ebay user to send you a good one...Do not!! Do not!! send feedback until you got a good digitizer....Mostly it has to do with the connectors i guess where the digitizer connects.... Tell them that you need a new one and you can't wait for very long...tell them this is a customers cellphone and you need to have it fixed as soon as possible.. If they don't want to exchange for a new one dispute the payment!!! Don't wait too long...Do it Asap... As i told you there lots of defective digitizers....I had reset mine also but nothing happens i believe this is mostly hardware problem...If you have any questions about how to dismantle ask me... I have open my cellphone over 10 times cause of the digitizer
Thanks Nikos, Im fine with opening these devices they are easy enough to work with.
I purchased a digitizer for a Polaris not long ago and it worked perfect. Im gonna take the Nike apart tonight again and adjust/fiddle with the connections to make sure - I dont want to wait another 2 weeks for a replacement digitizer and pay for postage lol.
But i guess if it doesnt work tonight I will have to 'grin and bear it' and send it back
Just built in a replacement digitizer. Everything works quite well, some inaccuracies in the lower parts of the touch screen, but it works.
I managed to leave over a screw. And a barely visible stain between the Digitizer and the LCD.
But at least it is working again as a replacement phone and for testing various stuff...
btw, now knowing the phone from inside, that part could be the "door" between the SIM slot and battery. or the rubber part that directs sound to the microphone on the bottom front PCB.
cheers
Anybody have a broken HTC uni?? I need the part that connects the mainboard to the screen, my son got a hold of mine XDA EXEC version and kept turning the screen around and around.
Anyways I took it all apart and found the faulty part so I'm looking for one the possibly got wet, broken screen, broken ports, broken keyboard etc...
Or possibly if anyone knows of a place where I can find the parts...
Welcome to forums
Ask a Mod to move your thread to marketplace so you´ll get better chances
Good luck,
I've got one if you wanna buy my. Got one where the screen is blank and the other where my usb port is gone.

You can just get the part off eBay, it's something like $25-$30.
I had a similar need: I had to buy a broken screen Universal, to take the motherboard out and fix my device (problems with bootloader...)
I got a screen damaged Uni from ebay with 16 pounds, and when I got it I saw the screen ok, and only had to push the connector inside a little harder and all was good. So I got a fully functional Universal device for 16GBP. My advice is you try Ebay.
Hi.
My Diamond 2 has stopped working with touch screen commands.
Problem:
The upper layer of touch screen somehow separated from some part inside, and phone doesn't react to touch commands.
It's same as you take for example transparent label and stick it to some glass and in some places you see bubbles, but it's much bigger area.
Solution:
Phone going to service.
Anyone had same problem with your phone ?

Digitiser...
You can get a brand new housing and digitiser from eBay for £24.99... I've just ordered one for mine. Unfortunately, they come from Hong Kong, so I have to wait a couple of weeks but my device will be like new again! You may be able to but just the digitiser without the housing... worth a look
Short term solution is to pull apart with duct tape until newton rings disappear.

Same on my device, I will send to service.
Can anyone confirm a new digitizer fixes the problem? Seems like it would, just don't want to tear my phone apart and wait 2 weeks for one to find out it's something else.

Some people did confirm. Try reading post from a link that cyron wrote on first reply to me.
I've had mine repaired twice in the last 3 months with this problem. Warranty covered the repairs. Apparently according to the UK support 'it's not a common fault'. Yeah!
touchscreen can be actuated
I am Brazilian, sorry for my bad English.
I saw the picture on screen seems to be driven directly, if your appliance has pelicula try to remove it. May be keeping the touchscreen.
It happened to me.

Same problem
Hi all,
I recently dropped my phone and broke my screen. I ordered a complete frame and lcd/digitizer from eBay and everything seemed to work.
Touchscreen didn't feel right and I stalled a few multitouch tester apps.
I noticed only 2 points were registered. Third didn't show anything. Contacting the seller with this he suggested cleaning the contact points and looking elsewhere for answers.
Does anyone have any idea whether this the screen or something else?
I cleaned everything, all contact points with alcohol and even bought a new battery, because some said that could have weird issues as well.
Thank you in advance.
/edit: this is the link to the screen I bought: http://www.ebay.nl/itm/331224787829?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
look at controller chip ( that one on digitizer flex) - if it's not glued with black epo around , then 99.9% you got cheap china clone digitizer ...
here is pics of copy and org digitizers :
cheap copy / OEM

The one I have looks te be an OEM version. I guess I have to open en different Nexus 4 and try to figure it out.
The smaller part looks to have a bigger IC on the picture. Mine has 2 connectors, but the smaller connector also has a smaller IC.
Thanks for your reply.
