these ARE the directions to replace the part of the screen that you TOUCh....it's actually called the Digitizer and it's what sends your "touch" responses to the CPU for processing. The LCD is the display portion....gotta tell you if you dont mind spending a few ($40 US) dollars or so to get a digitizer/LCD combo DO IT, the soldering is a BITCH! The solder points are TINY and after replacing MINE i can't get it to respond....gonna take it in to a service center tomorrow and hopefully get it done professionally (i've replaced the whole thing myself b4 and it's EASY, but THIS is a pain.....)

anyone know if theres a way to get to screen calibration withot working TS (might be a way to FORCE it to be recognized)

Thanks for the instructions. I replaced my digitizer and it works great. I guess my work with modchips on video game consoles has helped.

Again, thanks!

Can someone repost the last image? I disassembled the phone easily, but I can't figure out how to separate the LCD from the touchscreen. The image that deals with this seems to be broken now.

If no image, a verbal description will suffice as well.

The images work for me using 3 different browsers. The best thing I can tell you (since the pics dont SHOW the seperation) is that once you have the flex cable de-soldered, use something THIN and preferably plastic (think, Guitar pick) to slip in between the digitizer and LCD, the two are glued together so this will require a but of patience and care.
