[Q] Desire Z / G2 Digitizer issue / replacemen - G2 and Desire Z General

Ok, I had a search and I can't see anything quite the same as what I have going on, if there is I apologise and please point me at it?
Anyway I have an HTC Desire Z, I dropped it and smashed the digitizer. Everything still worked perfectly but I eventually got sick of reading through smashed glass (luckily screen protector meant I didn't cut the tips of my fingers off lol)
So, I order a replacement digitizer, slowly and carefully fit it (following a couple of guides on youtube etc. Everything is safely back together however now when the phone turns on all I get is a rainbow coloured stripe going up the left hand side of the screen. I pulled it all apart again assuming it was a lose/bad connection put it all back together even more diligently.. same thing.
Figured it was faulty so the seller (generously) sent out a replacement unit... problem is I am still having the same issue... any idea what I have done wrong/is the LCD now buggered too? I am so confused as all worked perfect until I "fixed" it
Looks like this now (ignore the bubbles that is just the cover that comes on the new digitizer unit:

any and all help is appreciated.

I am having the same issue...and I believe it to be a poorly connected and or broken ribbon cable. I am however not 100% on that.

That black circle on the screen indicates that the lcd is damaged. I has a similar problem. I replaced the lcd and everything was running again.

If somebody could help me with this question or if not give a link to other reseller that also ship to europe.
Thanxxxxx in advance.
missing pic
Here is the missing pic hope it works this time.
If you broken just glass- digitizer. so you just buy new on ebay. If you broken lcd screen, too so buy lcd+digitizer.
just make sure you buy digitizer for your phone because there are two types of them. One you showed is an older type and there is newer "snap in" type.

i cant put the picture because of 8 post block...
I broke the glass of my Leo last week as well, fixed now. I was lucky though, it was just the digitizer but when they were about to change it they did tell me that the digitizer and the lcd are so close and well pinned to each other that there was a risk they broke the lcd when trying to remove the digitizer so then I would have had to buy lcd +digitizer .. but it worked fine. Good luck!
Broke mine last October, covered it in a screen protector and its been fine ever since. The money saved not replacing it is in my "new hd2 for sam" fund, and you soon get used to the cracks, which can hardly be seen when the back light is on.
it happended wid my frnd too !

What do I need to fix this?

My Mytouch4g slipped out of my pocket as I was getting in the car last night and landed on concrete. Although there is no physical damage to the exterior of the phone, the screen now looks like this. If anyone has had this happen to them, is it fixable and if so what part do I need to fix it.

Look up Iphonerepair and mytouch4g in google.
I would give you the link, but being a new member I'm not allowed yet =D
Looked around a little bit and they look like the cheapest place out there; some guys at work have also used them, so I don't think they're going to sit there and try to rip you off (IE try to not send back phone etc etc)
Sorry couldn't be more help.
you need a new LCD bro. Have fun fixing that, just look it up on google, I m sure that there are plenty of videos on it

It's actually not as hard as it seems. First step is to buy the replacement. The second is to follow the videos online.
I just replaced a cracked glass on mine (the LCD was ok though). The tough part for you will be removing the unbroken glass and then putting it back on. Be careful not to heat the glass up too much and break your touch screen connector.
Another quick secret is that you can use a credit card to pop open your phone instead of those safe opener things people sell.
Good luck!
If your LCD is fine then replacing digitizer isn't really that difficult. I followed a guide I found on youtube and did it in about 15 minutes. No need for a special pliers like the other member mentioned, but you do need some precision screw drivers of different sizes.

ASUS replaced my screen because of light leaks

I know several people have been complaining that their N7s had light leak issues. Mine had leaking around the edges and a circular leak in the top right of the screen which was noticeable when I put my tablet down on a desk and used it at a 90 >= angle. I contacted ASUS and sent my N7 back, not only did they swap out my LCD but also gave me a brand new battery too!
I suppose the only money I'm out now is the money I spent on the screen protector that was on the unit when I sent it in (I'm assuming that by replacing the LCD, that the LCD is directly attached to the outer plastic of the screen, which includes the surface the screen protector was on).
Cool story, bro.
How do you know they replaced the battery?

Got the same thing they replaced my screen because of backlight bleeding and when i opened my n7 today when i got it back and i noticed some extra stick tape at my battery and some kind of weird steel or iron plate connected to my battery wich wasnt there before i send it
The steel plate is on the bottom right and im missing a screw! Should i send it back?
The screw im missing is between my second and third finger

[Q] LG G2 D802 [Issue] Screen loose at bottom right

Hello
- Advice requested
I have had my G2 D802 bought in Europe, Sweden, for a couple of months now and right from the start I have been taking care of it;
Back and front screen protector applied (thin plastic one, great acctually)...
Now, in the end of January 2014, I yesterday noticed a thin ray of light coming from "inside" the screen and shining out between the touch sensitive display and the edges (bezel?) of the device.

These images are all focused on the thin light escaping from the side of the display.
It is a opening as thin as a single piece of hair.
- What would you recommend?
Please leave a comment or just vote in the embedded poll at the top.
The images are grainy, yes, but all show the light comming out.
Return, replace

Well, I flashed stock and got a service ticket for a warranty repair.
It took 35 minutes for them to give my device a new screen.
All is good. I'm happy.

Same has happened with mine a few months after purchase! Mine is a Carrier device so i think they will replace it ok. I hope this isn't an ongoing things with G2's!
Same here. Same place
Same here, can I glue it with an easy method?
Without disassembling the whole phone.

LG G2 VS980 Horizontal Lines after Drop

Soooo... My wife dropped her VS980 for the first time in 2 years. All seemed fine (hell I've dropped phones countless times) at least for an hour or two.
We got home and her screen started to do this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So, I researched it and found that insulation of some screen components in the phone are very important to keep insulated. So I popped it open, and it looked fine. But I threw a piece of electrical tape between the components regardless:
Phone still does the lines. A few key notes: Dark backgrounds don't really affect it, turning brightness up high really sets it off, if I cycle the screen on and off it seems to go away, for a few seconds at least, before it starts creeping back into the screen.
Any thoughts? I was hoping if I powered down and left it inactive maybe it would give the LCD time to reset? Sounds stupid though. Could it be anything else? GPU? Bad luck?

Bought a new LCD from Fixez.com. Just arrived today. Hopefully this corrects the issues. I'll let you all know if it does.

UPDATE: The new screen worked perfectly. Took me about an hour, and was able to get it completely changed. Working great now. I hope this helps anyone troubleshooting screen issues!
