Bearsy Posted 15 March, 2012 Share Posted 15 March, 2012 i've got a samsung phone i don't need. The screen is fine but i could break it for you. Or do you do that yourselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al de Man Posted 17 March, 2012 Share Posted 17 March, 2012 Hi there I have a Sony Vaio laptop with a knackered screen I could be interested if Scooby doesn't mind me hijacking his thread, seeing as he's asking for smartphones? What's the model/spec? Condition of the rest of the laptop? Price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamster Posted 19 March, 2012 Share Posted 19 March, 2012 Scooby, I had the backlight on my iphone (3gs 32gig) go really dim a couple of weeks ago and found a website that gave instructions for fixing it. I followed the (foolishly) instructions up to the bit where you detach the contacts numbered 1,2 & 3 and checked they were clean and dry. That is as far as I went before putting it all back together, this process was surprisingly simple. Alas I now have nothing on the screen at all. If you think that you could fix it for me then I'd be really appreciative, obviously subject to cost. I also have a laptop with a knackered screen, I'd like all the stuff on the hard-drive transferred or even have the HD mountedas an external drive if anyone can do that at a reasonable cost?

Ok seems like the LCD is down, re check the connections, ensure the press on connector "it will click" is in place and the clamp is up prior to slotting the ribbon back in, then slide the clamp down, the LCD is not that expensive NOT sure on the numbering you quoted The LCD's are very fragile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamster Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 (edited) Ok seems like the LCD is down, re check the connections, ensure the press on connector "it will click" is in place and the clamp is up prior to slotting the ribbon back in, then slide the clamp down, the LCD is not that expensive NOT sure on the numbering you quoted The LCD's are very fragile This is the site I used: http://www.rapidrepair.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=cp-iphone-3g-s-repair with more pics. This is the 'walk-through' site's pic of the 2 numbered connectors. Number 3 is under the bit with '916' stamped on it. http://www.rapidrepair.com/guides/iphone-3g-s-repair/iphone-3g-s-images/iphone-3g-s-board-clips1.jpg Re the highlighed bit above, is there definitely a 'clamp'? I ask as when I took it apart that ribbon bit came out quite easily but was finicky getting it back in. I pulled mine backwards to detach it and pushed it back in the same way. It was quite fiddly actually, maybe that's the problem now, not connected at all! I'm gonna have another peek in a mo but look forward to your cooments Scooby.

Saint-scooby Posted 20 March, 2012 Author Share Posted 20 March, 2012 Hamster the one with 916 is a push fit, it is tricky if you have sausage fingers. Try and match it up prior to pushing it together If after you have re tried all the connectors , it could well be LCD thats failed or the proximity switch Also switch the phone off and remove the SIM prior to any work This link is a good one also http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Installing-iPhone-3GS-Display/1542/1 Deep breath.....

I'm well out of my depth mate. I can post securely and you can then estimate the cost to fix it properly. I'd be grateful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
