Assuming you bought a LCD screen, check out http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Repair/Installing-HTC-Evo-4G-LCD-Panel/3083/1
If you intend to say that you bought a screen protector, the product you bought should have come with some instructions. Or just use google.

No I bought the digitizer screen

Let's hope you purchased the correct ribbon size. I used this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0ys12y3Xvw

Well I mean, should most EVOs be the same.

i just changed my digitizere two days ago. had some bumps in the road. the glue used on the screen is pretty strong use a hair dryer to loosen it. i the video he makes it look easy. everything else is easy just the screen adhesive is tricky. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ADHESIVE FOR THE DIGITIZER. if anything give me a shout

No offense man, but if you have the option to take it to sprint and get it done. They charge 50 for a screen replacement, whether you under TEP or not.

Yikes!!!!!

Bricked

I think I have bricked my phone. Im pretty tech savvy I have had around 5 phones and have rooted all phones. I flashed a rom I had not seen before in rom manager. It is called minium 1.0.7. It flashed fine and I hit reboot and my phone did nothing. So I did a battery pull for about 3mins and put it back in and it wont boot at all. Is there anyway I can get it to come alive again. Thanks

Its pretty much not safe to flash stuff from rom manager anymore. Tons of stuff that isn't for our phone shows up in there now, huge problem. But more than likely you are bricked. Only hope you have is holding volume up+down at the same time, and plugging in the usb cord until the "warning" comes up. If that does not work, you have no hope. If download mode actually does come up, i will point you in the right direction to fixing your phone.

I just sent my phone back to Samsung for warranty when I bricked mine. If it wont boot at all 99.9% chance they just send you a refurb.

this one had no comments on it. I should have guessed.

Try putting it in download mode by using an official LG usb cord and plugging it into a wall socket. I know the LG cords have the constant power wire switched so you might be able to do that. I have seen it done before.

Talked to my awesome tmobile friend and she has a new one coming Wed and only cost $5 to replace. Thanks guys for all your advice.

Probably worth it but your friend is pocketing $5

Samsung website, register the phone and information is on there. Took about 10 days or less for it to get back.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA Premium App

Just got my replacement in and I have noticed it doesn't have a lockscreen. I have rebooted and and turned the screen on and off. The screen turns on and without having to go thru a lockscreen.
The other thing I noticed is if my hold down my power button my phone turns off. It doesn't prompt me to put it airplane mode or anything. It doesn't even ask me if I want to shut down it just does. Can't get a custom rom on thus fast enough.

It won't work if your phone is hard bricked. But I thought it was 300

That's not what the OP said. I would say it is safe for you to assume that a jig won't work. If you don't read and you don't try for yourself, you will never know.

Micro usb to female usb adapter

I got the adapter because it was cheap and wanted to try and plug a usb stick in for movies or whatever. Any idea on how to make the darn thing work?

If it's an extension you're talking about the male end of the micro USB cable then just plug the other end into what ever you're trying to transfer to. Or are you asking about a USB flash drive?

Charging port semi broken

I have to bend my cord up to get my phone to charge. Is this a warranty exchange issue? T mobile take care of this? Just curious while I'm on tonight before I go the t mobile route or Samsung. Searched and saw it's pretty cheap to fix yourself with the right know how
