5800 Xpressmusic LCD Screen Display Problem Repair Procedure

This mobile phone repair tutorial is applicable only if, after replacing a functional LCD or confirming that the LCD screen is operational, the display issue persists. If the LCD connector appears to be intact, a quick solution is to replace the EMI Filter IC, identified by the product code EMIF07-LCD02F3. This IC facilitates the transmission of four data signals from the application processor to the LCD screen circuit. If replacing the IC does not resolve the issue, the following hints may assist beginners in LCD repair procedures applicable to any mobile phone, potentially saving time. The repair guide includes a diagram of the tracing and test spots on the 5800 XpressMusic LCD connector and components, providing a foundation for checking and testing these locations. The two line coils connected to pin 10 and pin 12 supply voltage to the LCD; continuity should be checked, and if an open circuit is found, replacement is necessary. The four test spots on the PCB board connect from the EMI filter terminals to the corresponding LCD connector pin numbers; these should also be traced and tested. If any are found open, a small jumper can be applied. The LCD screen operates on two different voltage levels supplied by the power management IC: "VAUX," approximately 2.8 volts DC, and "Vio," about 1.8 volts DC. If all repair procedures have been executed without success, the EMI filter may need replacement. The configuration of the EMI filter bumps is illustrated, indicating where the LCD data signals flow, while the remaining bumps connect to the PCB ground lines.

The mobile phone repair process outlined above emphasizes the importance of systematic troubleshooting when addressing LCD display issues. The initial step involves confirming the functionality of the LCD screen and its connections. Should the LCD connector appear intact, attention should shift to the EMI Filter IC, which is crucial for data signal transmission. The EMIF07-LCD02F3 IC specifically manages the flow of data signals from the application processor to the LCD, and its failure can lead to persistent display problems.

In the event that replacing the EMI Filter IC does not rectify the issue, further examination of the circuit is warranted. The guide provides a visual representation of critical test points on the 5800 XpressMusic PCB, facilitating the identification of potential faults. The two line coils connected to pins 10 and 12 serve as the primary voltage supply for the LCD. Ensuring continuity in these components is vital; an open circuit necessitates replacement to restore functionality.

The four designated test spots on the PCB, which connect the EMI filter bumps to the corresponding LCD connector pins, are also essential for diagnosing issues. Tracing these connections and checking for continuity can reveal faults that may not be immediately apparent. In cases where open circuits are detected, applying a small jumper wire can effectively bridge the gap and restore connectivity.

Understanding the voltage requirements of the LCD screen is also crucial. The operation of the LCD relies on two distinct voltage levels provided by the power management IC: VAUX at approximately 2.8 volts DC and Vio at about 1.8 volts DC. Ensuring that these voltage levels are present and stable is essential for the proper functioning of the display.

If all troubleshooting steps have been meticulously followed and the display issue persists, further investigation into the EMI filter may be necessary. The configuration of the EMI filter bumps should be closely examined, as these bumps are integral to the flow of LCD data signals. The remaining bumps serve as grounding points, reinforcing the importance of a solid ground connection in the overall circuit. This comprehensive approach to diagnosing and repairing LCD issues can significantly enhance the efficiency of mobile phone repair processes.This mobile phone repair tutorial, only applicable if after replacing a good LCD replacement or rest assured that the LCD screen is working fine but the display problem still exists. If the LCD connector is seemingly okay and the quickest method is to replace the EMI Filter IC which has a product code value of EMIF07-LCD02F3.

In this IC where the four data signals feeds across from the Application processor through the LCD screen circuit. But after replacing it and nothing happens and the problem remains, here`s a simple hints for beginners on LCD repair procedures, this one can be applied in any mobile phone repairs, and this one can save time, rather than rushing through. This next repair guide picture that i prepared below is the tracing and test spots on 5800 xpressmusic LCD connector and components, a good way to start on checking up and test on that spots there.

Those two line coils connected to pin 10 and pin 12 are the LCD`s supply voltage. You may check it first if it has a continuity, if found open, replace it. The four test spots on the PCB board is connected from the EMI filter bumps or terminal through to each corresponding LCD connector pin numbers, trace and check it also. If found open, you may apply a tiny jumper unto it. LCD screen display used two types of different amount of voltage from the power management IC, to make it work.

One is called "VAUX" that is approximately 2. 8volts DC and the other one is "Vio" that is about 1. 8 volts DC. If all the above repair procedure is have been done and seemingly not solve the problem, you may replace the EMI filter or you may use this repair guide picture below. The EMI filter bumps configuration is shown right, the bumps that are connected is where the LCD data signal flows, the remaining bumps are all connected to PCB ground lines.
