Go to this site: http://mikechannon.net/
Forum member mikechannon has put together a great resource for any owner of an HTC phone.
Choose "Service Manuals" and download the Kaiser service manual .pdf
It has the complete teardown and rebuild (with pictures!).
Good luck!
theres an instructional video for taking it apart on this site

watch it carefully or if u have video editing software like Premier or Vegas, just download and import the clip then play it backwards. it goes step by step i just replaced my screen the other day
I was able to figure it out and lost 3 of the screws for the keyboard to attach the screen anyone know where I can get three silver small screws
actually the touch of my phone (Motorola milestone) stop responding only the left bottom corner
and then sometimes it works on its own .The shop keeper told me that its touch needed to be replaced
and they are not able to find it ..plz help
give me suggestions
waiting
I was able to find a digitizer for my droid on EBay and found a video online showing the installation procedure. Give it try and see if you can find one there.
before buying the digitizer please make sure it isn't:
-bad software flash
-bad flex cable
-static electricity on your hand / clothes
Those may sound stupid but give them a try
thanks you sir for replying.and i have checked my cell by shop thy said its touch...and before flashing its doing problem
can any body send me some link to order 1 piece if digitizer ( touch ) plz let me know
pblm solved //got digitizer through ebay
mod close this thrread plzzzzz
i bought a htc hd7 in january this year from a tech mall in hong kong. im now in perth australia and the hd7 is not available here yet.
anyway the phone was great right up until one of my friends dropped/threw my phone into the ground with a decent amount of force. at first i was happy to see that there was no damge to the phone on the outside, the screen wasnt cracked and the casing was fine. the touch screen still worked fine but now there are these lines everywhere. all over the screen. on the right side, there is a strip of just black. im assuming that bit of the screen is completely dead. it gets rid of the last number and continues like that all down the screen. there is also a ugly shade of grey that has the shape of a backwards "l" around the bottom right corner. the only way i can use my phone without these lines is if i set the theme to white, but even then it is extremely dull and greyish. when the theme is on black, everything that is coloured white, such as text or images sends the lines all the way down the screen, perfectly aligned with the white text or image all the way down the screen.
im a little unsure if this is the screen or something more internal. most importantly how/where can i get this fixed?
thanks

You need a new LCD, search Ebay for one & google for an instruction video.
LCD Replacement on Ebay for $50.00.
Tool Kit Needed to Replace LCD on Ebay for $2.00.
Can't find a Video, but here's a thread with info on how to replace the screen
do you think if i bought the parts and took it to a phone repair shop they would fix it?
I would call the repair place first to see if they'd use the parts you supply & if it'd be any cheaper than just having them use their parts.
I'd say try to find someone in your area who has done screen replacements before who do it for you for a small fee. I've done a few of them, it's not that hard. I've replaced them on the HTC Kaiser & Excalibur. The HD7 should be easier to do as it doesn't have a keyboard.
NOTE: This will void your warranty, so you may want to upgrade the SD Card at the same time if you want 32GB of storage.
well if my phone is covered by warranty then wouldnt htc replace it?
No, warranty doesn't cover damage caused by the user or this case, user's friend. You'd have to of paid for the accidental damage insurance for them to replace it.
i bought a new white cover fir my i9000 and when i put it together the screen doesn't work i didn't break any thing and watched the assembly video on you tube every thing is plugged in i dont know what to do help.

recheck the details and reconnect the flex connections, download a technician manual and guide from My Android Collections
Note 9 Exynos Purchased in India.
But my audio has stopped working.
I spent days and nights trying to see if anybody else has faced a similar situation and could not find much info.
XDA gurus my last hope.
Samsung's support is bad. here. The less said the better.
I finally pulled the trigger and did a factory re-set. That too did not help.
Here is a funny thing.
I can shoot pictures but I can't shoot Video.
If I plug my headphones in nothing happens.
The only thing that works is blue tooth headset but not for calls.
If I can figure out what parts need changing I can order them. And try replacing them.
The only Part I could find is this.

Update:
I finally tracked the problem down to the latest update. Soon after the update. Phone started to get hot. And also charging took longer than normal. Audio slowly stoped working.
You can try the following diagnostic tools, if anything to confirm if you have a hardware issue:
1) Dial *#0*# on you dialler and you get Test Mode from where you can test various hardware, including audio
2) In Samsung Members app go to Phone Care and select Interactive Tests. There you can find another set of hardware diagnostics that you may find useful.
Good luck!

Done sir.
Im pretty sure the Audio IC is blown.
Just need to confirm the part number to order.

Just in case somebody else has this problem I am sharing info as I find it.
It would seem the IC needed is MAX98512
And you can download the full Note 9 schematic from my google drive here.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/15MPFlmcnupHqU_4ZAkPOyWo5QeBj9XI-/view?usp=sharing
How do I figure out which IC to change. 98512 or 9896B
Could not find any info online. Other than 98512 is an audio amp and 9896B is audio IC.
Further reading & research seems to link this to the latest Android 10 update.
A lot of other people have faced similar problems on various phones. And 90% of the time the only solution is to have the mainboard replaced.
Just google android 10 updates broke my phone.
So far I have done 3 factory data re-sets. Each time trying something new like this time I did not update from backup. Still, my max98512 seems to be the problem.
I have placed an order for new chips from aliexpress.
Not being able to roll back really suck.
So I got this idea. To figure out if its a software issue or a hardware issue. Need to see if the device drivers are loading or not.
This info can be found by bootin up into recovery mode then view log. Open log last-kmsg
Its a pain to read. And I have not figured out a way to access the data via adb most of the instructions do not work on non rooted phones.
Can anybody with a working note see if the get this message in their log.

I need to know what is the text that shows up on the line after ALSA DEVICE LIST on a working phone.
The TWO ICS handling audio are max98512 and CS47L90 Ignore my earlier comments Indian Note 9 is different audio IC.
By this I can figure out if its a file corruption issue or a hardware failure issue.

Following here, my father Note 9 same problem and he think it very very bad work by Samsung to put out such devices to break after only 1.5 year of use, His old Nexus 4 is still working and running Android 9 custom ROM thanks to XDA Developer!
Samsung have done something bad, and it is to charge same amount to repair the phone as buying a new phone
So instead of repairing dead audio Note 9 at Samsung its better to do it unofficially I think :silly:

How much did they quote because one guy was quoted 18,000 I was quoted 26,500,
Yes I agree we save up for years or take out 2-3 year EMI to pay for these phones and then they don't last even 2 years. Samsung can not even explain why it failed. My Water sensor is not tripped. Phone has never been dropped or has a single scratch on it.
Im now using a 5 year old one plus that saw my daughter thru school and collage and its still going strong. Even after multiple drops in water.
Anyway if your interested I am importing all the Audio ICs 10 of each and plan to repair it myself.
The problem with getting outside guys to work on it is they try to reball the existing IC. And if that does not work They put in used parts.
Lets see if this is a s/w issue or a hardware issue if we can get a last_kmesg log file from a working phone we should be good to go.
I found this in the log.
audio_hw_proxy_9810: fast_out-proxy_open_playback_stream: PCM Device is not ready with Sampling_Rate(48000) error(cannot open device '/dev/snd/pcmC0D2p': No such file or directory)!
I really want to go back to Android 9. I don't even mind triping my Knox now.

hi, please guide me how to read logs. I have note 9 SM-N960F on android Pie Indian firmware.
@34% it is showing some frequency logs and 56% about some gamma values and pannel .
---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 AM ----------
here i found this method on samsung website to dump the logs.
SysDump tool:
Launch the Phone app.
Enter *#9900# to launch the SysDump tool.
If the Debug Level is Disabled/LOW, tap to select MID. This restarts the device.
Reproduce the issue that you would like to troubleshoot.
Repeat steps 1 to 2 to launch the SysDump tool.
Tap Run dumpstate/logcat.
Tap Copy to sdcard. This copies a timestamped .log file to the folder /log, which you can access through My Files in your personal space.
You can send the file to Knox Support, using one of these methods:
well found max98512 6-0039
for "ALSA DEVICE LIST" please share pic, it may help to find it.
The way I got to see my last_Kmesg was to go into system recovery i.e. power on with 3 buttons pressed. You get the menu which allows you to re-set the phone or wipe cache partition in that screen there is an option to view logs. From there I read the log.
Its a tiny font and took me 2 hours lol.
But chk this out. Just google Just google android 10 mic fix or android 10 audio problems.
And you will see that a lot of phones have been hit by this.
Not just samsung. But many brands. Some have found solutions some have not.
I think the first step for us is to figure out how to go back to Android 9.
If even after doing that the problem is not resolved then we have to replace the Audio ICs.
I belive the problem was caused by the update. And then it gets bad to the point where it destroys the audio IC.
Pixel phones had a similar problem where the android 10 spoilt sensors at the hardware level.
I was not able to find a directory /log or any files following your steps.
When you google Note 9 audio IC you get this link.
https://www.deviceparts.com/9896b-audio-ic-for-samsung-galaxy-note-9-ori.html
I have placed the order for this along with Max98512 but I can not find any reference to the 9896b IC is any of the Samsung Service manuals.
Lets focus on how to roll back to android 9. Because I think there were some massive changes to how audio is handled in android 10 and that is what spoilt our phones.
Basically due to overheating after the update. It was a crapshoot to see which IC lost contact.
Some people lost on display IC and some on Audio.
My Max98512 IC has arrived.
As to Samsung Claiming offically in writing to me that there were no Audio related problems reported after the update.

Can we use this method to roll back to Android 9 ? I heard rollback is not possible. ?.
Can somebody clarify ?.
https://www.rprna.com/news/how-to-rollback-from-one-ui-2-0-beta-android-10-to-one-ui-1-1-android-9/
it only possible if you have beta version of andriod 10 installed in your phone. if you have updated to stable version of andriod 10 then it is not possible.

a. I hope the Deves on XDA can fix this problem and figure out a way for us to roll back.
b. We put enough pressure on Samsung to allow us to roll back. Which I doubt as so many failures suits their agenda of getting you to buy a new phone.
c. We just address the parts that have failed and hope that they last.
==========================
Latest Update:
I was able to get my back cover off. Without cracking the glass or scratching anything it took me an hour but I took it slow on purpose.
Right chuffed with myself. Next step is to chk the speakers with a Multi Meter Then extract the board and inspect it. Water sensors are ok they were not tripped.
The Fingerprint flex was a nightmare to get off in the end it popped off on its own. And the flex nearly tore but did not.
The next step is to try and extract the mainboard and do a physical inspection and look for any damaged parts and to try and locate the Max98512 and the Audio Codec chip.
Im struggling here without the schematics. But my suspicion was right there is heating up all over the board. At the audio and you can see where the solder paste balls have separated from components. I see it near the display chips and near the audio chips.
There are tiny balls of melted solder all over the board.
Everything from the main chips to small components like SMD caps and resistors have over heated and shed these tiny balls of lead all over the board.
Im working without a microscope using a plastic pocket scope we use to read plugs.
Plan is to clean out all these melted balls and then put some flux and re-flow the lead. The Max98512 I will have to lift to see what the heat has done to the pads below.
I can't see any conformal coating on the board. This means if you live in places like India were we see humidity off 80-90% it can wreak havoc with your phone without even tripping the water sensors.
Today's plan is to pull the main board off. Wash it in Iso. Then used compressed air to blow off all the tiny balls of lead. Then fresh flux and lead. And then if I can get it to work. To coat the complete mainboard in a moisture-proof conformal coating.
I can't imagine why they would not coat the boards.
If you open up a Honda ECU after 25 years you will find that the board is still shiny. The lead looks fresh. And the reason is that they use a conformal coating.
And the reason why the audio and display ICs are getting hit the worst is that they have zero heat sinks. Im no expert but why would you run an Audio Amplifier IC with no heat sink. Makes zero sense to me.
============================
If you have an audio problem and are working with the 98512 here are the other parts you will need around it. These are the supporting components.

Thanks guys I solved my problem.
Purchased a Microscope, a soldering station, and a Max98512 AMP IC.
It took me 3 months but I did it.
I did try taking it to a shop. He soldered the IC on so poorly that the phone stopped booting up. And one 10K resistor blew. So decided to do it myself. Samsung Service will not do board level repair. ANd those out there offering this service 90% are uneducated without the right tools for the job.
