First Post - BIG problem

[daveytarmac]

Good Morning All,

This is my first post so here goes, friday night fiancee's mates came around and i left my phone in the lounge while playing 360. she comes running into the bedroom (she has knocked a glass of wine over the floor, table and my n95) so i did the usual took the battery out dried it out and the screen was still on and working fine, so i put it on the side and thought i had a lucky escape. However, an hour later phone rings and i pick it up to answer and the screen is black, but i can still have a normal conversation. i have tried turning on and off but just get a black screen, the keypad lights up and i get all audio on the phone and i have managed to remember how to navigate some of the aplications without being able to see them but not sure what to do next. I have seen a new lcd display on e-bay for £30 with postage and torx-6. So does everyone think i should have a bash at replacing lcd to solve the problem or could it be something else. Any help would be much appreciated.

You can also try blueunplugged,i'm sure they sell the LCD too.

Thanks for the guide i think i'm going to go for it myself. Hopefully it will cure the problem. Do you know if it's torx 5 or 6 which i need because the guide says 5 or 5+ but ebay are selling the lcd with a torx 6???

[Mr G]

I've tried a 6 before and it didn't fit,best to buy a set i think mate.

ok no problem i think i'm going to buy a set tonight from my local electrical store and have a look inside and then providing it's not all burnt out inside i will order a new lcd, and go ahead with the fitting. thanks for all your help man much appreciated.
