Hi,
Recently ive repaired a HTC Universal, put it back together as best as i could.
Now when i do touch the screen with a stylus, the screen has funny colours behind it. It kind of like when you touch/ prod your Computer LCD. It only happens when theres pressure on the screen so its not really a huge problem. The touch screen is definately there cause when i tap the screen it responds (e.g i tap start and the menu pops down).
If its normal then i can take it, but if its not im complaining to the ebay seller.
This doesent happen when i put any form of pressure on my HTC magician LCD, so im curious.
Let me know what happens with your universal
Cheers,
Whitemoo.
This is not normal behaviour of any touchscreen device!!
hmmm... well i just looked at the broken lcd screen, and even though the LCD itself is shattered, the touch screen is in perfect nick.
I put pressure on the touch screen and couldnt see any of the symptoms i saw on my current LCD
You guys recon i should swap the touch screen over? either way im complaining to the sellers, DODGY.
whitemoo.
from my knowledge, im pretty sure its normal. it happens sometimes on my 9000 so yeahh....
Hi All;
My screen seems to have stopped working as of yesterday... the centre of the screen when off now has an odd pattern to it, almost like when you rub two pieces of glass together and there is some water between them. The phone is rooted, but I suspect this is more than likely a hardware issue (as in my screen is p00ned...). Has anyone else had this issue?

Hi everyone,
I recently changed my HTC's Aria digitizer because it was cracked.
During the process everything went smoothly however after that I have discovered that when a person calls me or when I call someone the screen turns off and never gets back to normal if there is no other "stimulation" such as putting the phone to charge for example.
My guess was there was a problem with the sensor so under settings I chose to keep the screen awake at all times during a phone call, still, I am having the same problem.
The weird thing is that sometimes when I remove the battery cover everything works fine and the screen keeps on, but sometimes not, so its not a constant rule..
I may have messed up something during the replacement of the digitizer (its just the glass not the lcd) such as removing the sensor and not placing it back correctly but the thing is that I dont really know the components of this device so Im not sure what is what..
If anyone could help me to understand the problem a little bit I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advanced..
Anyone? Please
The sensor is right above the AT&T logo. If the little rubber ring isn't perfectly aligned with the sensor, you will have this problem. My wife's phone has a similar problem and it is fixed (temporarily) by firmly pressing on that corner. The adhesive strips have failed and I am looking for a source besides "Repairs Universe".
Thanks a lot!
I will try to take apart my Aria again and see if I can align it correctly
thanks again
glad that i found this, having same issues with my wife's aria, will give it a shot
Yesterday I was working on my HTC HD2, flashed WP7 Mango on it, and opened it again to align the plastic keys with the hardware keys undeneath. It didn’t really work out, so I carefully seperated the digitizer from the display to realign theglass abovethe keys. Now The keys work perfectly, but the screen doesn’t react anymore. I have no clue what could’ve went wrong, the digitzer flex cable is still perfect, aswell are the others which connect the screen to the motherboard. Anyone have a clue what could’ve went wrong? I hope it can get fixed easily
I’ll try to hold the ‘end call key’ while using the display. Seems like that will help to entight the connection.
Fix: So I took the Display out again and checked the connection of the digitizer at the back of the screen. It was loose. So i've put it in place and fixed the connection with some extra tape.
Hi guys,
What could be the possible reasons for a touchscreen and the capacitive buttons to stop working?
I purchased my Huawei U8800 only very recently but it was purchased 2nd hand. The phone came pre-installed with a custom rom, which is this one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1481168
I've had very minimal use of it ever since I received it, due to the reason that I have exams as I'm an UNI student. Therefore, I haven't modified the phone in any way, i.e I have not overclocked it or flashed a different kernel or recovery etc. The only thing I've done is installed GO SMS PRO and used it for txting and calling, that's it.
At first, everything seems to work fine. But on my 2nd day of use, the touchscreen started acting weird, where the right hand side of the screen stops working for no reason, as well as the 2 capacitive buttons on the right half of the screen (HOME and SEARCH). Then after a while, the BACK capacitive button on the left half of the screen stopped working, and eventually all 4 capacitive buttons and the entire screen stopped working.
The phone still turns on, but the entire screen doesn't pick up any finger input and there isn't any haptic feedback or vibration from the capacitive buttons. When I boot into the recovery, this is also the same.
So I contacted the seller about this, and he advised me to flash the Cyanogenmod 7.2 rom to see if this fixes the problem. It didn't, the touchscreen still doesn't work.
I'm wondering if this is related to the digitizer, which is the part of the phone that sense your finger inputs? If not, what are the other parts of the phone that could relate to the capacitive buttons and touch screen?
Definately a digitizer problem. The capacitive buttons are part of the touch screen, the touch screen is extended over the bottom of the display.
You should buy a new one from eBay or similar. If you want to buy it with a frame (black part on the front), you will have to open your phone to see if the front speaker is big or small. There are two types of front speakers and they are not cross-compatible. If you just want to buy the digitizer, you will have to remove the old digitizer from it's frame and add some glue on the new one to make sure it won't stick out.
If you don't want to mess with your phone, I am sure there are paid services that will do it for you, since replacing the digitizer is fairly easy.

thanks for your reply mate!
Ok so I've found this one here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-To...Glass-For-Huawei-U8800-Ideos-X5-/170721993712
Since it says it's "original", I don't have to worry about the speaker problem right?

They are selling the digitizer, so there will be no problems as it's only the digitizer glass and not the frame around it. The frame itself is holding the digitizer and the speaker so that's why there may be issues when buying the front cover.
If you need a disassembly tutorial, check my Mediafire (signature) -> Documents -> U8800 Basic Maintenance Manual. It's the official disassembly guide so you can be sure you are doing it right .

Wait, that doesn't have the frame around it? I thought the black part surrounding the glass is the frame? I'm confused.......
I just want something that looks exactly like shown in that Ebay listing photo, where it has that bit of the connector part that you push into the motherboard (or whatever it's called on the phone).

On your listing, it does not have frame.
If it's without frame, it is simply the front glass with connector. If it is with the frame, it has the black curve too (and speaker with led).
See this:
Without frame.
With frame.
Hope it makes sense now

Yeah, but not much. Maybe you don't need to add any glue at all, the old one might hold it too.

hi blefish
just posted a similar question:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39201328#post39201328
is it the same solution? (the 4 buttons at the bottom do not work as well as the lower half of screen)
my speaker is 15 mm by 5 mm long (i looked inside). is it big or small?
all the ebay posts do not mention a frame - i will be happy not to mess with the glue
thanks

Hi guys,
I did have the same problem with a Huawei G 510. Digitizer broken and replaced, but still not working.
I have no action on screen. It lits but i can't press any button. Either the 3 buttons are working.
Checked the plug, checked some voltage in the pins.
Any other ideas ?
Thanks in advance,
Miltos Matt
