Glass top for XDA II?

Hello,
I am looking to purchase a glass top for my HTC Himalaya (XDAII). Does anyone know where I can get it from?
Thanks you.

abohsali,
Do you mean a new touch-screen?
Codenix.

Hello,
No, only the glass top on top of the digitizer. the digitizer is intact.
Thanks

hhmmmm maybe i'm way off but as i understand it then
the xda is lcd and then a plastic layer which is the touch-screen
mine sure dont have glass over the touch-screen of cause i have a xda1

All pdas have an LCD touch screen but there is a glass top of the LCD. When you use the stylus and tap on the screen it is on the glass top that you are tapping.

the touch part is not a part of the lcd screen itself
it's a semi soft layer on top of the lcd and can be changed without
changing the lcd
there is no glass on top of it and this is why people spend coins on
screenprotecters to put on top of the touchscreen
i have a link to a online store which sell both lcd's and touchscreens for xda1 but i dont think they work on xda2's

i`m also looking for a digitizer for an xdaII. not found once yet, xda digitixers are for sale for about $60, which is a bargain in my opinion, but when you look at the xdaII there is only one ribbon cable for the screen which incorporates the lcd and digitizer so a repair appears to be very tricky. I`ll keep looking though

Hello-I need help finding a place that in the USA can repair my xdaII. I just dropped it on my marble floor -- OOPS! I thought you may have heard of a place for me to send it?? I believe I've broken the lcd & glass...it functions fine but has major cracks/shatter marks thoughout the screen...Let me know if you can help & thank you

Hi, I have managed to brake the Touch Screen (not the LCD Display, but the Toch Pad Layer) of my XDA 2. I am looking replacement parts. If any one can advise me on cost and located preferably in UK (for sending off for repair).
I have found these sites:

they are selling Touchscreen Replacement for US$125 (by Post)
Thanks..

touchscreen cracked what to do?

hi,
my desire hd fall on the floor and the touchscreen is cracked at the bottom (lcd display is still ok).
so what to do? buy a touchscreen for about ~40-50$ at ebay and replace it? (is it difficult for somebody who never did it? is there a manual?
pay 200$ for repair is extremly expensive for a glass but the advantage is you get gusrantee...
somebody who has experience in this problem?
thx in advance for help

I did it on my "old" Dell Streak 5...
no problems... http://android.modaco.com/topic/331525-morning-face-plant/

but if i get it right... after you repaired it the lcd was completly broken too after some time?
btw do you need special equipment to replace the digitizer/tochscreen?

YouTube: [`htc desire hd replace screen'] = List
1. `HTC Desire HD Disassembly Video'
...

thx for the video but i found this already.
its a complete disassembly of the htc desire hd (not for touchscreen replacement). if THIS is really necessary to change the digitizer.... no chance... found some other videos who are easier but not for desire hd....
i asked a local smartphone repair shop and they submit that a digitizer replacement is not possible because the LCD is glued with the digitizer (touchscreen). so i should buy a complete replacement including the LCD Screen which is really expensive....
is this true?

No

You probably saw them.

trust me you don't want to f..k with it: the digitalizer is glued to lcd and lcd is glued to mettar board and I have no idea what kind of damn glue is that it is so hard to rip it apart and when you do it is even harder to fit it all back in, trust me take it to a service shop here in croatia it is around 100 euros to change both lcd and touch digitalizer i'm sure that you can find cheaper service
fu...ked up my desire hd tryng to do that

thx bruno this helped me alot. if its glued i will do that and keep my guarantee.
but anyway 3.5 feet fall = 120-140 € is extremly hard. i will never ever buy a smartphone like that again without an insurance. if you think back to the good old nokia phones who can fall 300 times on the floor without any scratch...... and if they have any scratch buy a express on cover for 5$

[Q] HARDWARE Please look at my photo and tell me if my phone can be saved

OK I'm an idiot I destroyed my digitiser when trying to do a screen replacement on my S4. Can someone please have a look at this pic and tell me if (apart from the broken digitiser) I have damaged anything else that would make digitiser replacement no longer viable?
Thx very much for replies

It's not just the digitizer that's toast, but the AMOLED screen as well. Those cracks near the upper right are where the screen itself is broken. With damage to the screen you're going to need to purchase a new midframe with screen and digitizer already attached to it. I don't know how much you spent on your glass, but the midframe and screen are going to cost about US$150.

Thx for reply . Could you just tell me if this is what you meant about what I need to replace the damaged parts?

Thx ever so much for help

That is precisely what I meant. It's the entire screen plus the midframe. You'll need to pull all the sensors and other small bits off the bad screen/midframe and put them on the good one, as the replacement part doesn't include the sensors. iFixit should have a breakdown guide you can use that should be of help.
