I used this with multiple unbranded or unlocked phones I had. When I had the DNA briefly I used this and it worked for me.

Just pick your carrier and reboot and MMS should work.

Thanks, Crackeyes - these settings worked for me on my DNA (running Newt's M7 ROM, if that makes a difference). I didn't need to use GOSMS on mine. The settings you provided worked fine using the stock messaging app. I'm so happy (since I've tried settings posted in other threads and they didn't work or were missing some of the settings entries you posted).
[HTC Droid DNA] agribby:
So I've had my dna for a week and a half when my screen shattered. Ironically enough the screen protectors I ordered came in 5 minutes later. I've been scavenging the Web but can't find any replacement screens. Does anyone know if they plan to sell them in the future or is there no hope? Also if anyone has/hears of a broken dna with functional screen I'd love to arrange a deal

No insurance?
[HTC Droid DNA] t1gartist:
its only a 100 deductible mine just broke so i have the same issue the phones worth eatting the cost just sucking i got to reunlock and all that **** cause im very happy with mine super fast and and will handle more then 1.8 ghz

You do not want to attempt this without an LCD. The digitizer and LCD are fused. Skytrade on Alibaba sells both separately for about $150 total at the time of this post.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
If you have only had it for a week and a half can't it be returned or replaced by Verizon? If you bought it there.
[HTC Droid DNA] voxigenboy:
he would only be able to return it to verizon if:

1. there was nothing wrong with it and he just changed his mind(within 14 days)

2. it was defective in some way out-of-the-box.

since there's damage to the phone, he wouldn't be able to take it back. it could only be replaced "damaged" through insurance.
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
Anyone tried this yet? My wife's DNA just broke as well and so far the cheapest place taking them in and repairing it would be $300... anything around 100- 150 and I would be intrigued to do it myself... apparently she is not happy with my old Droid X....go figure ...
[HTC Droid DNA] huskers15:
Just do insurance replacement for $99. You get brand spanking new phone with 2.04 if lucky maybe 1.15
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
I actually have a DNA taken apart at home right now and I'm waiting for a screen to come in. There are some companies on eBay that sell them from 130-200. Most of them ship from China so they will take a couple of weeks to get here, but its a lot cheaper then having HTC or Verizon do it. The instructions to take it apart on YouTube are where you'll want to start, and of you need the screen within a reasonable amount of time, then injured gadgets on eBay ships from the USA, but they are like 40 bucks more than the cheapest display. Just search "droid DNA assembly" on eBay and get whichever one you want.
[HTC Droid DNA] huskers15:
What's your reason for paying more and waiting couple weeks for the screen? Is it cause u have root??
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
Well I paid 134 for my screen, and haven't even used the phone yet. I got the parts from my step dad because his coworker dropped it and shattered the glass and LCD. He said if I could fix it, its mine, and now I just have to wait for the screen. I'm using my galaxy nexus right now and I love the phone, so I'm alright with waiting for the screen.
[HTC Droid DNA] huskers15:
That's understandable! Good luck with the repair.
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:
Just had mine fixed last week. Screen/LCD/labor was $265 with 99 day warranty. First time the screen touched the LCD and the bottom lights didn't work. Took it back the next day and they fixed it. Bottom lights still aren't right, but the screen touch was fixed. When I took it in originally, they told me they wouldn't do just the digitizer. They had tried before and couldn't get it to sit/seal correctly. Good luck with your replacement screen, and let it's know how it turns out.

[HTC Droid DNA] jmjabberjaw:
I work for a wirelesszone and you can buy a insurance for a phone at any time 99.99 for the 2 years and 75.00 deductible so for a DNA replacement it would cost only 175 shipped with asurion you can only get it within the first 30 days
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
Yes, I have found the video on how to take it apart, even so the video I watched did not take the screen out. It seems in my case only the glass in the front of the phone is broken (since all functions on the phone still work and the LCD display looks okay) I have heard the the LCD and the digitizer are somehow heat fused together. Therefore the LCD with digitizer should be the way to go. But I have not pulled the trigger on the e-bay purchase. I'm very interested on how this goes for you.

By the way I can't get an insurance claim or phone the cheapest refurbished Verizon 4G phone would be $350 and they wouldn't even have the DNA as refurbished yet.
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
Yeah, the video doesn't quite get to taking the display apart so you kind of just have to eyeball that part. You are right that the digitizer and LCD display are fused, this is more common in recent high end phones as to prevent people from repairing it themselves (display/digitizer assemblys are significantly more expensive than the separate parts). I didn't take this DNA I have now apart myself, but I did repair an HTC evo 4g lte, and I can tell you that how the display and housing are put together are identical. There is pretty much no way to pry apart the display and digitizer because the display is extremely fragile. I don't know if I can link to you the one that I bought on eBay, but just look for one that has both the digitizer and LCD display assembled. People that just sell the digitizer are basically trying to grab you money, because fusing them yourself is a task in and of itself. When my display gets here I'll post pictures of what I did to fix it. Hopefully that helps anyone looking to replace their screen.
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
For sure I will go with the combo...if I tackle it. So far I let my lady use my old DX and hope that the prices come down a bit. I really like to get all the stuff for around $100. Man I don't know what it is with this woman, had to replace her laptop screen and then the whole laptop screen cover with hinges and now the phone ... woman!!!! :rolleyes:

---------- Post added at 04:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 PM ----------

I see on ebay you can get the digitizer, lcd all already in the front cover for $169
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
Oh boy I know the feeling, I bought a diztronic case for my girlfriends iPhone 5 and she doesn't like to wear it some days, so the one of the days she doesn't wear it she drops it and completely shatters the screen. I would have fixed it myself, but the displays for the iPhone 5 are so expensive because they are new and, you know, apple tax. But yeah I feel your pain Haha.
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
Alright ... wish me luck, just ordered the LCD screen, digitizer full assembly from ebay. It actually ships from the US and should be at my house by the end of the week. Lets see if these $145 are going to make my wife happy again. Since this assembly will not come with something called the "Light Guide" I'm kind of interested on how this will come all together. In the video posted on youtube they do not take that part out. I hope that they simply detach once all is out and I can just move them over into the new housing.

I will post when I'm done how everything went...
[HTC Droid DNA] incident:
Please do :)

Im also need to replace the screen
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
Oh the light guide is actually a part that guides the light for the capacitive buttons. Otherwise only the home button will light up, or at least that's what happened with the ego 4g lte. The light guide is just a sticker on the back of the digitizer that covers the capacitive buttons. If that is still a problem you might be able to purchase it separately.
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
So I should be able to reuse the old ones...???
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
Yeah you should be able to just take it off of the old digitizer
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
Okay I have the phone taken apart ... but how to I get the frame off hte old screen and put the new one in .... there is more stuff to take apart and no guide anywhere... ****. Anyone know what is next?
[HTC Droid DNA] krazya:
I assume you are replacing the whole lcd digitizer assembly. The top of the pic where the speaker is where the digitizer adhesive meets the back plate. When I took mine apart I removed just the broken glass from the lcd. Once the glass is off I pealed back the adhesive to expose the lcd. Then the lcd will just pop out. Let me know if you have any questions.
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
Mine looks like this and the pic is the LCD and digitzer the otehr pic is how far I have it taken apart.
[HTC Droid DNA] matthall9815:
I don't know what everyone else is running into, but the screen and digitizer were fuzed together in mine. I had to pry it apart, and if you do that be sure to start at the top. There is a small led unit for the hardware buttons lighting that got damaged when I started from the bottom of the screen.

If anyone can help I'm having a small problem with getting my DNA back together. If I hold the digitizer away from the phone it works perfectly, but as soon as I put it into place part of the touchscreen stops responding. It's usually the bottom right edge where the farthest right keys would be on the keyboard. There must be something that's grounding it out, but I haven't been able to find the problem. Any ideas out there?
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
I did buy the LCD and digitizer already together, so my problem is to remove the LCD/digitizer from the internal frame and brezel of the dna, which would then hold all the other stuff like battery and motherboard.
[HTC Droid DNA] matthall9815:
Apply heat with a hair drier start in the center of one of the sides with a small pry tool. Watch out for the small strip at the bottom under the buttons. And the little cover at the top over the red speaker mesh. There are also 4 small holes from the battery side if you need to put pressure from underneath the LCD. I don't think anything else is in your way. the glue is pretty tough though.
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
Thanks the hair dryer would have been the way to go. Well I got it off without any heat source ... however I think I ruined the tap/ glue in some spots pretty bad... any special tape or glue I can use to get the new screen nice and tied?

---------- Post added at 12:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:57 AM ----------

It seems that Google comes back with some 1mm double sided adhesive tape for cell phone screens but I think that would be way to thick. Any suggestions on that?
[HTC Droid DNA] matthall9815:
They advertise a precut set of adhesive film on ebay for $10 I think. I do so many I actually bought a couple rolls from 3m and just cut it with a razor knife. You can find similar products at places like Michaels. it's usually called film becuase it's just a layer of adhesive after you pull the backing off, and no solid material like tape has.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-x-Pre-Cut...e_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item4ac45f904a
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
Why does it say digitizer tape? Isn't that what goes between the frame the the LCD/ digitizer combo. Never the less I just broke my new screen. When I had the new screen all in and pushed nicely down (gluing it into the frame) I noticed that the upper flat connector was too long and the lower one to short. While trying to remove the screen to see if I can readjust the connectors, the glass broke... sucks... now I have to think really hard if I just buy a used phone or try another screen. With my luck I get the new screen in and might have demaged something else and all would be for nothing. :(
[HTC Droid DNA] matthall9815:
there is a problem with the upper ribbon not clearing the square the holds the camera. The extra just gets placed carefully under the top piece that has the camera built into it. usually I place the main center board in it's spot before I install the top board, and glue the lcd ribbon down exactly where it's supposed then put the pieces back together. Can you get the LCD apart from the broken screen?
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
Well since I have one now I can play around with, I will try. But I hear that is no fun at all and very rough. And the lower ribbon you really have to pull tied around the edge of the LCD. I just placed the motherboard where it should go and saw, that it wouldn't work. Didn't know if this was under glue or not.
[HTC Droid DNA] matthall9815:
I never had a problem with the lower cable at all. I'm going from memory here, but that one just layed flat on the bottom, and reached fine. You don't have your center board upside down do you?
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
No it was just not bend nicely all the way to reach up, in hind side I probably could have just tucked on it a little...
[HTC Droid DNA] axe97:
I'm stuck in a similar situation. At first I ordered just the glass with digitizer and gave replacing it a shot. Turns out that it's literally impossible without the right tools, so I gave up on that. I got the LCD out, but I trashed it. My question is, can I just order a new LCD and pop it in, then glue the digitizer/glass over it? Or do I have to fuse the two together? If so, what do I use to do it? Inside the phone originally there was a double sided specially cut adhesive, but I couldn't find any on eBay. I did order the other set for $10 that was posted on the page before of this thread. Help would be appreciated!
[HTC Droid DNA] dnargsiefil:
I have not seen just the LCD offered. It seems to me saving the trouble with fusing on the digitizer is worth the 40 bucks.

I'm going to wait on reordering a new LCD/ digitizer combo until they got cheaper. I probably Judy pick up a S3 for my wife... apparently that is plenty of phone for my wife to play words with friends... and text...:)
[HTC Droid DNA] Icyman:
I did everything correct. I even have a $7000 IR camera from work to verify the temperature. I see no way to get the glass away from the LCD. The LCD fell apart. Don't waste your time or money. Sad part is that it was still usable with the cracked glass. Take it to a shop or replace it as one package.
[HTC Droid DNA] atomikhippo:
I have a question for you. When you separated the lcd and the digitizer, was there an oil of some kind in between them?

I am planning on buying the lcd and digitizer off ebay separately and attaching them with double sided tape so if I end up breaking my digitizer again I can just do an easy swap out with another one since their fairly cheap to replace. Plus, the butterfly's digitizer should fit which would get rid of the verizon branding.
[HTC Droid DNA] voxigenboy:
We replace the LCD+Digitizer on these at work for $220. We don't replace just the digitizer as it's very fragile & a pain to do(+ there's the chance you could accidentally do some damage). I would only suggest attempting just the digitizer replacement if you're good at working on phones & have the time/patience to do it properly.
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
I didn't end up trying to separate the digitizer from the LCD and just bought the assembly, and I think it turned out pretty well. I'm happy to answer any questions anyone has!!
[HTC Droid DNA] stevezor:
That looks great, nice job! What seller was your front assembly from? Does everything look and work likr OE? I've been thinking about ordering a white front assembly as well, but am hesitant after getting burned by one of the bigger eBay sellers (20k reviews, 99% positive) on my One X. The LCD was obviously not oem quality and probably not even SLCD, as the colors and brightness were way worse than the original one.
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
It seems like the color and brightness is really good, the viewing angles may not be as good, but I didn't really use it before I replaced the screen. I would tell you the seller I bought from but theres a small problem with this one: the very top of the digitizer is unresponsive, so I can't pull down the notification bar lol. I just figured this out today and i'll have to de-couple it and return it for a replacement. I think the white actually looks a lot better on this device and if you can get one without the verizon logo and with a light guide then it looks really good with the red capacitive buttons. I guess I could tell you just to avoid "igadgetfix" on ebay. I'll be returning it and hopefully be getting a replacement if I can get it off without damaging it so I'll let folks know if it all works out.
[HTC Droid DNA] kamikaze2444:
I just wanted to make sure I was getting the right parts to replace my screen. The touchscreen works fine but the glass is shattered. Since I hear about how hard it is to just replace the glass I want to buy the digitizer already attached to the screen. Is a "HTC Droid DNA ADR6435 Front Panel Touch Digitizer Lens Glass Screen Repair Part" (listed on Amazon, since I'm a noob I can't post outside links) the only part I need aside from tools and 3m tape?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Accessories] polson136:
I am looking for a keyboard case that plugs in to my galaxy tab. I am aware of the multitude of Bluetooth keyboard cases, but I would rather preserve my battery. I am also aware of the keyboard docks that allow you to physically connect, but those don't let you adjust the screen angle or fold it up and take it with you. I want an actual keyboard case that does not use Bluetooth. Does such a product exist?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Accessories] SetNick:
Nope. I have looked. I just ended up buying the expensive factory Bluetooth case/keyboard.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Accessories] polson136:

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxg75:
I cannot use most of the newer roms from development on my two int'l Atrixes (one D00, one 1100)

I was trying:

- MROM CM9

- Epinter CM10

- Paranoid

- AOKP

Yet all those show the

same

effects:

1 - phone boot gets across the first M-Screen,

2 - starts Boot Animation

3 - after a while display's brightness shortly lightens up,

4 - LED shortly flashes RED

5 - then the display's brightness goes down again for 5-10 seconds

after that it endlessly loops 3-5.

The only Roms that get across Boot-Animation are Gingerbread-based ones like Nottach (which is my main rom) or CM7 or Mrom CM7 - the other one that is working is ICS-AOSPish-Mod. Every other one I've tried failed showing the pattern above.

Flashing procedure is always the same (tried the old 5.0.2.7-recovery and TWRP):

- Factory Reset, Wipe System, Wipe Dalvik -> then flash roms (mostly in order Rom -> Gapps)

I even tried the batchfile from moto-fastboot-tool that erases: /boot, /radio, /system, /userdata, /userdata, /cache, /webtop, /preinstall - yet with no luck.

What always works without any hickups is nottach's aroma installer when I have to go back, or when I restore from Nandroid.

Thanks for reading so far and thanks for any suggestion.

PS: I also ask myself: how can I log boot process until it hangs in that bootanim-loop as described above? Is boot-log saved somewhere even when I have to remove battery and reboot into recovery?
