well...looks like i'm on my own. They ONLY change the entire lcd+digitizer(and thay are the only repair shop in Slovenia for qtek). So..iI'll just have to learn.

I'll change the digitiser for a fee if you want to send to the UK, but the Qtek 9090 can have either the sony or the toppoly screen in and I only have sony digitisers.

Sorry! That's a toppolly LCM with the wider ribbon :-(

It is possible to fit the digitisers I have to your LCD but it is difficult and I'd rather not do it as I burnt my fingers the last time.  :evil:

I do not have toppolly LCMs or digitisers but I have many 06 boards waiting for them - they are heard to get hold of. Any company who says they can supply 'blueangel' screens ***ask them which type*** as you cannot fit them to each other.

It may be cheaper to sell your 9090 on ebay broken and buy another  :|

Well, buying a new one is out of the option, since I saved money for this one for a lot of time.What about this page:http://www.goldenbyte.com/  ; the owner says that he has the right one.
How much work needs to be done to fit the sony digitizer?

Don't assume they will have one. They have used the same picture of a digitiser as PPCTechs page! Email them to ask.

You could make the sony digitiser fit. As explained previously you need to slice the ribbon along the tracks to make the narrow connections fit over a wider area as below.

Then you have to hold the ribbons in the wider pattern and heat the contact pads to solder them in place. Don't take it personnally but if you have to ask how, then I wouldn't attempt it, you may end up destroying your LCD ribbon  :cry:

no, the ribbon won't be a problem, i ment this:  The metal frame doesn't quite fit either but with some work it does.

I e-mailed them...but didn't get a straight answer:
First he said that they have them. Then I asked about different versions and got this:
We have selling this touch screen for a while. This is one touch screen for your PDA phone Qtek 9090
Than, I said that I have the toppolly lcd and got this:
Once you get the touch screen, you will get the detail instruction about how to fix.
Qtel 9090 is same as PDA2K

There are locating 'dimples' within the frame, 2 on each side, and these correspond to holes in the digitiser frame - they are in different places on the 2 different digitisers, you can file them off the LCD frame and it will fit, then use double sided tape to hold the digitiser to the LCD while you re-assemble the phone. Once the phone is back together the pressure of the casing will hold the digitiser in place firmly.

If they can't give you a straight answer which type it is for I would avoid them  :roll:

It may be that they are selling the glass / touchscreen without the frame? Possible but unlikely. Ask for a photo, and if they send the photo that is already on their webpafe definatley don't buy...

Hey, they replied me, here is the pic. But, i also need the frame, because I threw the broken digitizer away :oops:

That's a sony - see the narrow ribbon connector? Mine are better - they have frames ;-)

Richard

[slovenskisin]

yes, and that's why I'll take yours!

[slovenskisin]

Hi!
well, i've changed it, but durin the proces I made a small crack   Well, nothing big, but it won't work. Perhaps the connector was poorly soldered on. Are the wires the same, only wider, or do they have to be changed?

Oh no!

It depends how bad the crack is. The touch pad works on uniform pressure, if the cracked glass is pushing against the touchpad overlay it will not work. Can you send a picture of the crack? The wires are in the same order only wider yes, that is correct.

Hey!
Well, today I took it appart again, but the old connector is soldered on just fine. I don't know, if the digitizer is in contact with the pins on the lcd, because the connector isn't soldered on.
