hi. i tried searching a couple forums but haven't found anything regarding a place to buy 8125 parts or a manual to take it apart. i do have the proper t5 driver and just can't seem to get it open. thanks.
Would not recommend disassembly unless you are very experienced
see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43381
and good pictures here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43748
thanks a bunch!
Theorist and others who need to do the same, here is the progress I made. The back cover for the 8125/Wiza100 is different than the others. Instead of prying on the side (per the service manual), I pryed at the edges of the keyboard area. The PCB is held in by two clips and a phillips head screw. Everything else should be along the lines of the service manual. Also, if you are just replacing the LCD/touchscreen, you can skip the steps about removing the vibrator, camera, and taking apart the keyboard.
Dear friends,
My offer to the forum, a step by step guide on how to safely disassemble your precious Trinity. You might ask of course, why should I do that on a very expensive electronics device? Well I personally had to do it in order to remount the phone in a white casing because my black had peeled off after two months of ownership and I did not want to send the phone to HTC. Also because it was really fun.
My best regards to you all.

What a great tutorial !!!
Thx a lot, it is the best one.
GREAT!
Thank you very much for this very helpfull guide!
Good !
Hi !
Thanks for this great guide !
Very good work !
Concerning the tutorial that I have written any questions are welcome !
Regards !
Great
Thanks for the tutorial
Great tutorial! Thanks! I actually just had my Infrared window pop into the phone on me today (half way at least). I want to try to get it back to normal again w/o sending my phone to HTC. Apparently they have a swap program, so who knows what kind of condition the phone you receive will be in.
Where did you get the original white housing? I might be interested in switching that also since it will be half-way apart already.
Dimanto,
what a super guide. The photos and layout are really good.
Now available in [pdf]
Dear friends,
I have converted the "How to disassemble Trinity" guide in [pdf] and is now posted in xda-developers. I think that this format is more proper because the file size has reduced a lot. You can find the rapidshare link or the attachment in the first message of this post.
Regards
HTC P3600 Trinity - Inside - OUT!

You may take a look to these photos about disassembling htc…

You're the best : I just broke my screen and found your "life saving" guide !
Thanks again !
Make it sticky!
Great "how to", thank you very much
@mods:
I think this post should be stycky
Hello, great guide, only one question, when detaching the cable from the motherboard for the LCD screen you commented it was a little more difficult and to pull up the black lever. Can you elaborate on this part and also advise how easy it is to replace and close once the cable is reinstalled. I have a crack in my LCD screen, so probably wont have to go as far as you. Have accidently broken this type of clip prior and want to be careful. Thanks
LCD Panel and Digitiser
Hello dimanto, any thoughts on how the LCD panel and the digitiser fit together prior to me starting on this project. Thanks.

Hello my friend. Actually it is not so difficult to pull up the black lever so you can then easily take out the screen cable. This is rather easy, also to clip it back on. What you have to be careful of is when you unclip the LCD screen cable from the the M/B, then when you pulll out the LCD screen from its postition, do it very carefully because it is very easy to accidentally cut the LCD screen (ribbon). So don't worry about the clip.
Regards!

Well I do but if you are buying a new LCD screen don't bother about it because the digitizer is already on the new screen. If my reply is not helpfull just tell me what part you are changing exactly. Basically the digitizer is a small glass attached on the LCD screen connected to her via a small ribbon cable. If you need something more just ask.
Regards!
thanks dimanto
but can you please choose tools which you used from this page
http://cnn.cn/shop/tools-c-71.html
because there are different sizes and types of tools

This is exactly what happened to me. I broke this little black clip and now my phone is useless. Where did you get another one? I just cannot fix the flat LCD cable anymore to get a proper picture on LCD (now it's either inverted or screwed up or totally missing).
PLEASE HELP! I can't live without my Trinity
I would like to replace the housing of my Tytn II EU
Including the front keyboard and the case buttons.
Where can I find instructions how to open the case?
Where to buy the best quality (original) housing?
Help appreciated!

First, you dont specify which Kaiser you're looking to disassemble. 2nd, we have a search feature on this forum. It works rather well too. You could of typed less in the search box and found your answer almost immediately. But instead, you chose to contribute more clutter to our forum. Thanks.
I found this in 2 seconds flat...

Thanks for the quick reply.
Sorry to kick-in an open door, but I am new to the forum and could not find it.
I just added the information in my original message.
I should have mentioned it in the title.
I am looking for a detailed instruction on desassembling the Tytn II
Thanks John

I can let you know from personal experience that it is very simple to get in and strip down the phone to the bare case. I bought a very well used and battle scarred phone on ebay and replaced the case in under half an hour; (proper tools used) a T6 and a small phillips were used. To separate the casing from PCBs i just used my fingernail, but a credit card can be used ( it was just cumbersome for me). Mike has got the expanation down with video and everything. If you run into any problems, just give a shout!
Today I aquired a HTC Trophy with a cracked screen.
It was not cost effective to have it replaced by the workshop, so I'm attempting to replace it myself.
Following the MicroSD replacement guide by DominikZ, it's been a fairly simple and straight forward process, but I have now come to a point which I'm not sure how to proceed.
I've gotten to the point where I have the two ribbon cables disconnected, and have now separated the systemboard from the front. The front frame now contains the LCD, digitizer and speaker.
Does anyone have some tips on how to proceed from here?
What about the other 3 (black) screws? Torx 6?

Thanks for the tip Lance The pictures were easy to understand, especially when I don't read chinese.
However they did not cover removing the LCD and digitizer.

The three screws on the back of the lcd casing is not screws. Those are threaded cylinders, for attaching the front with the back.
Hey there
how far have you got with repairing the screen as I also acquired a HTC Trophy with a cracked screen. The phone still works so there is no rush but I need to know what I need to repair this unit?
Hey.
No progress so far. I'm not sure how the glass is attached to the front housing, but I have an idea that it might be glued on from the front.
You may be able to extract the glass from the front by using a hairdryer and something thin, like a razorblade. However I have not tried this yet, so I can't say for sure.
Good luck ;-)
There are digitizer replace videos for the htc desire:
youtube.com/watch?v=sXZqIjtFoAU
If the Trophy is build in a similar way you can see how you to remove the glass at 4:00
You can use a hair dryer instead of an oven.
Hi folks, been a long time lurker, came here after looking for a solution to this very problem, so, nlamer here's how to do it, be warned though it's not an easy repair.
(och, I cant post image links until I have made 8 posts :-S )
see attached photos, i'll prob need to do a few replies to post them all.
1:- Strip your phone down and remove the logic board from the chassis, carefully remove the lock tabs to release the ribbon for the LCD & digitizer
2:- Use a heavy duty knife ( I used a stanley blade ) to slice the adhesive holding the LCD to the digitizer, it's only held round the edges so you dont need to go too far in
3:- Peel back the cracked digi and just slice the ribbon, it's attached to the back of the LCD and your not going to be using it again anyway
4:- The LCD is held in place with the light grey adhesive strips, use a spudger to remove it, just be careful not to put too much pressure on it or you will damage the LCD, in my experience it's always better to have a replacement on standby just incase
5:- A quick check to make sure the LCD is still ok, you never know!!!
6:- On the old digi you will need to remove the three clear plastic tabs at the bottom and transfer them to the new one, these feed the LED's to the capacitive button's on the bottom, they are held in place with some adhesive & are not difficult to remove
7:- Remove all the old adhesive and apply some knew strips, I used 3M stuff here and trimmed it to fit but I dare say there are adhesive kits available on eBay
8:- Do the same to the LCD
9:- Line up the LCD with the marks on the digitizer and press it into place, the digitizer ribbon has a small piece of adhesive to attach it to the back of the LCD
10:- Place the display into the chassis, make sure the ribbons go through the gaps in the chassis and everything lines up before committing to pressing down
11:- If all goes well after re-assembly it should be looking sweet again.
Hope that helps yourself & other's out ;-)
Regards
Thanks for the instructions irepairtechstuff. It is greatly appreciated. I almost have my device wrapped up, and ready to go, but I'm having some trouble with the digitzer.
It seems behave as it pleases, and does not register pushes and swipes as it should be. Any tips on this?
Nevermind the last post.
I cleaned the connector with some alcohol, and now it works perfectly
I just got a trophy, I don't understand the adhesive verry well. I though you had to put adhesive on the underside of the touchscreen digitizer (along the edges of the screen) and on the metal frame, under the lcd or the underside of the LCD, but in this turtorial you see adhesive along the edges of the upside of the LCD?????
HELP!
Is there nobody who can help me?
Try private messaging the users who manged to get this to work. They should receive and email and might be able to come back and look at this thread.
I disassembled my D2G to replace a cracked screen and this piece fell out. I tried for over an hour to find where it goes, but no luck. The Youtube videos I found for disassembling the phone were no help. I did find a good guide at ifixit dot com though I couldn't identify my piece in that guide either. The part is 3mm X 17mm and it has 2 small foam cubes on it. It must be near the opening of the phone because it was all full of skin cells. I got the phone back together and it all seems to work, though now it has a slight rattle. Any help would be appreciated
