Digitizer broken? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It's looking like I've got a broken digitizer. This appeared in the last week or so, haven't had a ROM update/change since August but I'm doing a backup and factory reset just in case. How difficult is it to change the digitizer on these phones? I've been in a couple tablets and a phone but haven't messed with screens. Any advice/recommendations?

You didn't change digitizer by itself! Go to service. You can change only display module (touch+lcd togeter), if you has a spareone. Because if you try to change digitizer - you broke touchscren also and it cost more to you...

Touchscreen

I have had my wing for only 2 months and I bought it off of a friend.
When I had it I noticed two little scratches at the right hand-side bottom of the screen, but everything worked perfect......until now.
The problem I am having is that the touchscreen is not responding right att all. The main screen is crystal clear (it functions right) but the touchscreen interface is does not repond to touch or when it does, it activates another section of the screen different from where was pressed.
Do u guys think it's really the touchscreen layer on the main screen that is faulty or could it be something else triggering a faulty reponse?
Thanks in advance.
I had that same problem with an HP iPAQ hx2490. The only thing i can say to you is: You need to buy a new screen and replace the old one..
sry
You do not need to replace the whole screen, but the touch screen digitizer will need to be replaced. I had that problem on my prophet and had to have it replaced.
Thanks guys for ur quick reply... I'll take the step to replace the necessary part....Thank you.
Doing research on this I see where these cost at least $50 or more. Is it worth it? Can you not get a new one cheaper using the offers posted on this site? Just curious.

replacing the digitizer has way more steps than just changing the whole LCD screen. I had similar thing happen to my old MDA and I replaced both LCD and digitizer with new ones. Separating the Digitizer from LCD might damaged the actual screen itself. I suggest go to ebay and buy a combo screen+digitizer replacement part.
I got one for my MDA for 78 dollar shipped.comes with flat plastic tools, plastic screen protector, T6 screwdrivers, and wiping cloth. Not a bad deal.
The only reason I suggested just replacing the digitizer is cost... My I had to replace the digitizer it cost $60 instead of $100 for the entire screen...

Same problem here
I've got the exact same problem. Replaced LCD and digitizer but it is still not working. Additionally the screen is a little yellowish. Anyone knows if this might be related and any idea who to possibly fix this?
Hi, I have exactly the same problems, even tried with 2 fresh new digitizers. Could it be that they are extremely sensitive on the inside? Or is it some glitch somewhere?
Extremely frustrating!
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

Screen not working after digitizer change

Hello people.
My screen was not working properly (for example I can't press X) so I bought a digitizer - I had this situation for almost a year, because it was only one certain parts of screen.
I mounted the digitizer today but the touch capability is completely off. When I was about to complain, I tried with the old digitizer, but the problem mantains!
Any idea what could be the problem? I already checked all the cables hundred times, and did a hard reset.

New LCD and new digitizer but still no touch!

I have a T-Mobile HD2. A few months ago, the digitizer got a little crack but touch was working fine, so I order a new digitizer and replaced it. No matter what I did, the touch wouldn't work with the new digitizer (I know about front buttons putting pressure on digitizer ribbon cable which sometimes results in touch not working).
I thought problem might be the LCD connection slot for digitizer, so I order a new LCD too. But even with new LCD and new digitizer still touch doesn't respond! What am I doing wrong?
This problem is still baffling me. Right now, I have 2 sets of digitizers and LCDs (old ones and new ones I purchased) and no matter what combination of them I use, digitizer is not responding.
I have to say the old digitizer used to work fine before I opened up this phone, it was just it had a little chip/crack in the edge so I wanted to replace it just to make it nicer. But now digitizer won't work at all!
Is there supposed to be an insulating layer between digitizer and LCD? What wrong did I do by opening up this phone? I was very careful. The only thing I am not putting back for now is the front keys and its flex cable. Other than that, all what I took apart before, I have put back!

Possibility of replacing digitizer.

Hello,
I have dropped my Jiayu and the front panel is broken, the touchscreen is not responding, but I don't see that the screen is damaged. I've plugged the mouse via OTG cable and I could use the phone in this way.
So my question is could I just replace the digitizer and the front panel, or do I need to replace the whole screen? (where front panel and digitizer is included of course)?
I don't even know if replacing the digitizer is possible due to the fact that it is glued to the screen.
display and digitizer are one part!
But there is a possibility to buy just digitizer.

I have successfully replaced displays on 3 S3 already, it's fairly easy,. Replacing the digitizer only might be possible if you have the right (semiprofessional) equipment, but I doubt you will succeed. Try it if you feel sure... I would not.

I was in the same situation with my Jiayu S3 two months ago, I bought the digitizer (I month wait until it arrived from china aliexpress ) and brought it to two local mobile repair shops...
Neither of them would change the digitizer...both said they could change the whole screen part only as the digitizer is very difficult to change and you need special machines to do it....now im waiting for the whole screen part to arrive...(another month )
So your best bet is to buy the whole screen and change it yourself or in a techie shop...or look for another phone if the 50$ price of the screen doesn't convince you...
Good luck
Will this work? My LCD is broken and the touch is not responding.
