[Q] Another touchscreen problem... Sorry..

I like MANY others has run into a problem with the touchscreen. Unfortunantly. So the story short:
1. Installed NAND + some ROM - Everything worked fine
2. After 2-3 months the touchscreen temporarily wouldn't react (on the lockscreen)
3. I did a total wiping of everything on the phone to original WM6.5 , then reinstalled MAGDLR and Android - It worked perfect for a day
4. The next day it didn't react, so i reinstalled as in 3. but it didn't work
5. I removed HSPL but I couldn't get rid of android - So I called the repaircenter and the dude I was talking to said that it didn't matter if i delivered it with android
6. It took a week to get it back - But they didn't fix the screen, they just left a note saying: "There have been unauthorized software on the phone. Therefore void all warranty and repair options"
7. I ordered a T5 Torx screwdriver, took a look inside the phone to check if it was a loose connection between touch screen and main board, but nothing seemed like it....
--- Now, this puts me in a weird position. Ordering a new DIGITIZER or both digitizer and LCD.. The LCD isn't damaged in any way, but I read that it's hard to install the digitizer only.
What would you guys recommend?
BTW, when I hold the power key in the start screen of android the upper option is being marked (Check picture) Is that an indication that the digitizer is ****ed?

Bump for help

get on an android build, and if you can get your touchscreen working, DO NOT TOUCH THE END KEY. for me, the end key causes all kinds of touchscreen problems. download extended controls or a similar app, and that will let you power off/reboot/go into sleep without touching the end key, then always use the green key/windows key/back key/home key to wake up and you should be good.
let me know if this work.

Thanks, I'll give it a try when I get home some time today

you are not the only one with touchscreen problems i had it
flash stock rom and send for repair
they changed the whole screen on mine phone, its not android issue its htc issue and the connection with digitizer and motherboard it breaks when pressing end button

forgot to mention only use my method if you don't have a warranty (like me) or don't want to send it in.

How hard to fix? Nothing to fix. Fixing such phones is replacing broken parts with new ones. Case is for replace (made of aluminium, expensive probably), camera module probably for replace (it's all in one assembled together), camera led seems to be for replace too. Replacing that all is 30minutes and pretty easy. Look for parts prices on net.

Well I went to a HTC service in my city and they tell Me that they have to change all motherboard if I want to fix it and that will cost me as much as new phone and they have to do it cuz my phone is bougth from from another countrey and the don't have the software for fixing it so I'm stucked.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Whoever told you that is a moron. If the phone is booting the motherboard is fine. What they have to replace is the volume button ribbon cable assembly. It has the board that the camera and speaker/headphone jack is mounted on. that part is about $40 USD. The camera is about 15 USD and the back casing is about $50 USD. And why would they need software to replace a flex cable assembly. Don't do business with them.

Does it all work fine?
replacement LED flash lens covers and Rear battery covers are very cheap to buy
there are many videos on youtube "Desire Hd Disassembly" that tell you how to open it up, its just a few screws to remove the back cover,
main problem with opening the dhd is the warranty void stickers and to get to two of the screws you need to remove the sticker near the battery that has your IMEI/ serial on it, and its hard to stick back on

Screen or GPU screwup

Hey guys, I'm making this thread basicly just to vent I sent my DHD in for repairs in late march because the volume rocker had come loose and it would be fixed under warranty, no biggie the phone did take a couple of weeks to get fixed but I knew that when I sent it in, now when I got it back I immediately tried to start it at my dealer but the phone wouldn't start I thought Oh well prob didn't have allot of battery when I put it in. So I came home but in the charger and turned it on, to my surprise they had tried to update my fw it failed and I was left with a phone that only had access to HBOOT, since it was fully functional when I put it in for the repairs (Stock rom S-ON) I took it right back and they tried to flash it at the dealer to no avail, I once again had to be without my phone for a few weeks, now this thursday I finally got word that my phone was ready to pick up *YAY* (they changed the mainboard) I was quite happy since I had been given an old desire bravo as a loaner while mine was being repaired thinking oh happy happy joyjoy these last two days having my phone back.
Now this evening when I went to look at the clock on my phone I saw right away some strange artifacts on the screen like green is bleeding through? I tried to restart right away and when the phone shows the htc logo the first time around it's clear no artifacts perfect white and green, and then as soon as it enters the OS the ****ups start to appear, what could be causing this?
I'm sorry for this wall of text but my patience for htc is wearing quite thin now and I'm not thinking I will ever buy another handset from them again

I have no idea why imageshack has the seccond picture upside down but you get the picture

Sounds like they botched the repair job.

theres either a break or a short in the displays ribbon cable

dude, if you've sent your phone twice, you should tell them to give your money back and you have right to do so. Once you do that, get yourself a dual or a quad core

Should I try to save my black screen nexus 4?

Hello people.
I need help to decide if I should try to save my nexus 4 or not. It has been dismantled for the past half a year and i recently got it to show signs of life after battling the steady red ring of death. (Was simple by the way, just used a wireless charger for a couple of minutes) But if I turn it on, it vibrates, the screen lights up and that is just about it. So i have no idea if the phone itself is functional. Some of you might tell me not to bother with such an old phone, hell, they aren't even sold anymore. But this phone has stuck by me through thick and thin, and has a sentimental value. I nearly jumped of joy when it showed signs of life after such a long time. I am not a rich man, so i need to manage my finances. Screen replacement would cost me 25 pounds, back housing would be another 10, but what if the phone is still not functional? Is there any way I can find out if I should take the gamble?
Some info -
I am not entirely sure if there is an OS currently installed on the device, as I was experimenting quite a bit before the battery run its coure.
I am also missing one of the connector things that are circled (there is one and a broken spot where another one should be) but i have no idea what it connects to. The little peg itself is safe and sound in my possession, if it can be welded back. It connects to whatever is under the power button on the back housing.

The screen is cracked in three places, but was working the last time I remember. But there have been many (and I mean many) dis and re assemblies since then.
I probably love this phone more than my friends and family. Just want my favourite piece of tech to be my companion again.

Could the red light be due to a dead battery?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thankls for the reply. The battery is new and the red light issue is sorted. The phone just doesnt do much more other than vibrate and light up the screen. How do i know if it is still worth investing money in is the real question.

In reality, you aren't going to get a reply because nobody has a clue what you've done. Post a video up of the failure and perhaps you might get a response, but in reality, you've done something right weird here, haven't you? I mean, who cleans their head unit.... just wipe the screen and be done with it.
Did you plug the old ribbon connector in while the unit was switched on? If so, my best guess is you've shorted something which is why your ribbon cable melted. Potentially what you've goosed as a result.... is a mystery.
Could be the entire screen, could be the entire unit, could be neither...
Might be time for a new one.

Might be time to find a local electronic repairer.
