TP2 Rhod210 - Help

hi,

i got TP2 T-Mobile version (GSM) RHOD 210.

i need to fix the device, the screen lcd color are not the same and the digitizer (made out of plastic) "sunken" in the LCD.

my question is: if i will replace the Digitizer screen to glass one (instead of plastic), will it work ?

Re: TP2 Rhod210 - Help

I'm not sure it would because the phone isn't on a capacitive screen... Think the plastic screen is so it can tell when it is being pressed on.

Though I don't have experience with replacing screens, just thought the glass wouldn't "feel" pressure since it doesn't bend

What I'd do (or rather what I have already done) is order a new digitizer off eBay. It's like 15 bucks or so,

And just replace it. The screen itself is glass. then the digitizer, plastic, sits ontop of it with a very very small gap. When you press, it pinpoints where you are pressing from the gap being closed,

Now the thing is that the screen and digitizer come togeather.

So it will replace both.

You might however have an LCD issue...
That's a bit more expensive....

For the device to work properly you'll have to replace the digitizer with the proper replacement part otherwise the device won't be able to recognize touches properly and calibrate properly. If you put a different digitizer/touchscreen from a non-windows mobile device on it the device probably won't function at all.
