Dead LCD.. questions inside.

rjayorate · #1 (**permalink**) 11-28-2010, 09:35 PM

My TP2's LCD just crapped out yesterday.. was searching to no avail. Digitizer itself is functional, but useless since i can't see anything on the LCD.

-any program available where you could access the phone on the computer (ex. read text messages)?

-basically want to know if there any way i could read my text messages via pc progam.

any help would be greatly appreciated!

thanks.

does your lcd come on when you do a first boot?

no it doesn't show the "TOUCH PRO" and the text in red. i didn't drop my phone either. just stopped working, tried soft resetting.. then i noticed the boot screen wasn't even showing.

which leads me to this. i purchased an LCD from eBay.. but when i disassembled my phone and took a look at the flex cable, it seemed pretty worn out. i'm hoping the new lcd does the trick.

i don't suppose a hard reset/reflash would help, would it?

If you have insurance go to the sprint store and well replace it, if not 35 will cover that

ah, unfortunately I'm out of warranty (and i'm with Telus). this is actually my 3rd unit.
