Orbit II Replacement Screen - Seeking Help

Hi there,
I have a really desperate problem
I've got an Orbit II bought in Germany and I'm not covered by their guarantee here in Moscow. So, I happened to be a very lucky one and the touch screen of my device is faulty - it has a gray stain on it clearly visible on a white background.
I found a replacement screen for the Touch Cruise here but what the technicians discovered yesterday was that the screen was actually the same, but the cord on that TC screen (stub, whatever) sticks out at a different place than on mine!
Found out one more thing:
Orbit 2 = Polaris 200.
TC = Polaris 100.
Guys, can anyone help me find a source to buy a replacement screen for Orbit 2 in Germany or UK?
Thanks a whole lot in advance!!!

I have posted a request for you over in the german ppc-Welt Forum
Maybe someone gathers some information there. I will keep you updated.

Well, thanks for these links... But I don't want to dismantle anything. I just need to buy the whole touchscreen assy.

Ah, but to enter that page I need to register I don't think I'm able to complete the registration procedure in German

A-ha! http://www.pda-square.de/LCD-Displa...22_sid4f6dd0a80b1d3866f78131a5edcd3d4d_x2.htm
But the problem is that the display on the photo is for TC, NOT for Orbit 2
As I said earlier,
but the cord on that TC screen (stub, whatever) sticks out at a different place than on mine!
You see, the cord on this one sticks out in the lower left corner of the screen. But mine is in the middle of the left side.

Interesting because on the posted link,
they state it fits for following devices:
HTC:
Touch Cruise
Polaris
P3650
XDA mini II
O2:
XDA Orbit 2
This would assume, that it is the same for all models
Maybe best is to email them and describe your problem by support form:

Wow!!! Thanks! Seems to be a really interesting site! I think I'll be careful though

If you have changed your display successfull, please post a small how-to.

Too bad... these cnn people seem to be offline and off work.
I wonder if this site has ever been really working...

Did you order one?
http://cnn.cn/shop/p3650-touch-cruise-polaris-c-277_456.html

No, haven't ordered anything yet. But these guys have told me finally that their screen is incompatible with my Orbit but they will try to find one that is
I hope to have news next week.

Will this
Click
be the whole screen or are there two parts (lcd and digitizer).
How do I know, what is broken?
On my device there is a small black spot like ink and a tiny crack from the whole left to right. Display is working fine except the black part, the touchscreen works everywhere.
What parts do I need?
Thank you
JueLue

Well, I was informed by those technicians who disassembled my device that I needed the whole screen. That's the only thing I know.
So, I can't help you here.

I have a dent\scratch in the housing, and multiple scratches on my screen
I'm actually thinking about selling my TC, cause of all the issues, etc.
I wonder if it's worth it to buy the housing and screen replacements...hm
I'm gonna wait until someone here has successfully used one of those kits and successfully dismantled the device.
Knowing me, I would definately destroy it without reading a how-to from someone who has actually done this before

Hello Dimitry N!
Have you got some news for us? Did you get a new LCD screen? And how to replace? Many questions....

I got myself a TC instead.
The Orbit 2 has a Samsung (!!!) touch screen, which is a real piece of ****.
The one on the TC really does have the viewing angle of 180 degrees, as it was advertised.
The Orbit 2's screen - no. When you look at it from the "top", the image on the screen darkens a lot, and vice versa. And the image on the TC screen is a lot crisper! I can tell this by holding the 2 devices together right now!
What a pity! O2 decided to include some nice accessories like the car charger and the car holder, and saved on the screen instead!
So, I will sell my Orbit 2!

[Q] HTC Hd2 TouchScreen doesn't work + black screen

Hello...I have an HTC Hd2 ,but the touchscreen doesn't work...Yesterday the display works fine but now,after i disassemblyed the phone,the screen is black,but the LED-s are lighting. In some positions ,LCD works fine...
My HTC has the touchscreen with soldering version
The question is: the soldering of touchscren, can affect the LCD? If the touchscreen is missing,LCD is working?
Sorry for my english! Thank you so much!

1-YES, AFFECT LCD of course
2-maybe... it depends, they has an independent connections
3-WTF?¿?¿?why you dismount your device??????its possible that you crashed the electronic contacts....(OMG)

I cleaned the digitizer contacts and lcd contacts and for 5 minutes it's work perfectly...
I hope LCD is not broken,or his flex cable...
If the touchscreen doesen'twork,should i buy a new one? Or it's another problem?
Thanks

lcd goes with the touchscreen by default......(50-60euros more or less)...
why you don´t try to disasemble it agin and scroll the problem?you don´t loose anything...

I will go to a GSM service and i will say to service man to disassembly the phone and to clean the contacts,and to say what is the problem!
I hope LCD is not broken ...only digitizer.
Digitizer can be responsable for black screen?

I want more opinions...
I repeat...Digitizer can make LCD Black? LCD is black but the led's are working
Thank's.

[Q] Replace housing on Diamond

Hello everyone
My Diamond really needs a new housing and digitizer.. I have replaced screens and other stuff on other HTC phones many times (Universal, Prophet, S710 and so on) but what i havent tried before is replacing a digitizer. If i understand correctly isnt the digitizer the sort of small panel over the LCD screen that is used for the Touch to worK?
Im just worried that its too tricky for me to replace that. Anyone that has tried this before and can tell me if its difficult ?

attach a mouse to it using otg cable and you can use if that is what you want to do.

Should I get the screen + digitizer or just the screen? Is there any place where I buy this in-store in the bay area or is the only place it is available online?
