Wizard Display broken?

Hi guys, I need some help here. I literally threw my wizard out of the window shaking out my bedsheets and it dropped three stories into the backyard.
When I turned it on again (the drop had opened the battery case), at first the screen was bright white, then turned darker and darker showing some sort of noisy stripes (static, not moving). When it goes into standby and is turned on again from there it does the same thing.
some facts:
- there is no visible crack in the display (neither from the side, I disassembled it)
- all buttons and the touchscreen are still responding (u can see that because the background lighting responds to them)
- the wizard is still accessible via usb
- I don't know whether the phone still works because I can't enter the pin w/o display.
It seems strange to me that the display should stop working while the touchscreen and the background lighting remain unhurt. I am thinking about replacing the display (only available together w/ the touchscreen and bg-lighting), but I am afraid that it might rather be a problem with the communication between the main unit and the display, even though there was no visible damage there.
Does anybody have experiences with that kind of behavior of the display?
Is the display that vulnerable that it breaks before the rest (light, touchscreen)?
I didn't find any cases similar to mine in the forum. If there are and my questions would be answered there, please direct me there.
Thanks for the help

Try taking it apart, the force of inpact could have made a connection loose.
Disassembling I disconnected everything possible. Next thing would be to take apart the display/bglight/tscreen.
did you mean that? looks pretty fragile to me...
thx
yeah, I wouldnt mess with the display .. lol .. I meant a connection somewhere inside the device... like a loose ribbon or something
Yeah, seems hopeless. Guess I'll have to buy a new display and hope it works :-(
I'll post again once I got some results...
Problem solved
For the archive:
I exchanged the display and apparently only the screen was broken and the rest was unharmed.
I'd also like to add that two days ago (1 week after I repaired the thing) I dropped a plastic bottle on the phone in such a stupid angle that it broke the touchscreen. the next thing I will report here is whether it is possible to exchange the touchscreen only by doing some soldering.

Ah! My Wizard is Dying!

So I've had my Cingular 8125 for 2 years now...
Just lately it's been dying out, some of the keys are hard to press and now the screen is discolored and fades out white sometimes, and the most recent problem is that I can't really hear phone calls unless the phone has the slider open.
I was just wondering if anyone else has encountered these problems and has a fix? I was thinking it may be the flex ribbon...
Any input is greatly appreciated!
hy
i don't know if this helps u , but i have seen on youtube a video on how to fix the ribbon or smth like that. i think the guy from there had a simillar problem with yours. i watched the video 2 years ago so i might be wrong.

[Q] Do I need a replacement screen?

The vibrate function on my HD2 has not been working from day dot so I decided to open it up and check the vibrator. I pushed the vibrator in tight and closed it all up again.
When I turned on the phone, the screen was displaying what looked like 256 colours. The screen is still responsive and everything else seems to work (except of course for the vibrator).
Question is: Have I broken the screen or is there a connection problem which would cause this?
Any ideas please?
Im not really sure. Was there anything you did that made it stop working?
ok - for anyone in the same situation. I have managed to put a 3mm split in the flexi cable between screen and motherboard.
Off to ebay to get a new one now.

[Q] New screen not working after replacement

Hi all,
I had a touchscreen issue (sometimes not working) in my HD2 so I ordered a new fabric screen+lcd assemby. I replaced it very carefully but now when I plug new lcd it is not working. Phone is working, buttons, vibration, hear the sound when turning on but there is only backlight on display and just shows black screen. I am sure that display is ok because I tried to put old one (wich was still working before replacement) and it has same issue (backlight works but display is black). Can you give me some ideas what is wrong ????
damaged lcd ribbon connector on mainboard or ribbon not being inserted fully or latched securely
Ty booting to bootloader ...
Help
The flex cable is not attached correctly or the main board is broken and before you close your phone try it. If you can't do this give someone your phone and he will recover for you.

No picture showing - touch is perfect and backlight works sometimes

Hi all,
It was a few months ago when I fell off my bike to the ground on the side where I had my Z1 in my pocket. It was in a rugged case and the display was facing my body (no direct shock with a solid surface). Since then, my display doesn't show any picture. The touch function works very well and the display is not broken. Also the backlight works sometimes.
What can be a problem here and how can I solve it?
Is it possible to solve this problem without changing the display?
Or if changing the display is the only solution, is there a video to make sure that I can reassemble the mobile well again as the videos available now are for disassembly only?
Thank you very much in advance,
Riko

Search on YouTube, there are vids from disassembling. Maybe reseat the display connector can solve the problem.
