Today I got accident and my screen cracked a bit. But, everything function normally(touch, LCD or screen). So the question: do I need replace screen digitizer(touchscreen) only or must replace both LCD&touchscreen?
I read somewhere, must replace touchscreen+lcd but in my case it is only cracked screen, LCD working fine.
Glass and LCD are glued together and those are also glued into frame. It's possible to replace screen by purchasing glass + lcd as 1 unit but this means you have to pry the old glass from the phone's frame.
What I did was I just bought frame + lcd + glass as 1 unit form Ebay. It's much easier and risk that you'll break something is much lower.
Thanks for info m8...

How to find the best replacement screen
Today my Nexus 5X screen has cracked. However the touch responses and the colours are still great. Just the front screen cracked.
Please let me know where to buy the genuine replacement for the screen? Are there any good sellers in Amazon? I want to replace it with an OEM part.
Replace the whole screen.
just buy 1 from ebay, original or not (i have not original one and works just fine)
1>your warranty is void
2>if you don't want to lose your warranty just sent it to LG ! .....bad idea!!! they want 160 euros!!!! the same thing happened to me
*160 euros cost in Cyprus
this is what i got is not original but works just fine!

First of all, HI to every one, this forum is excellent and u are doing excellent job.
I have one problem,yesturday my htc tytn Ii felt down from half meter and from that time my touch screen is not working . screen is working fine but touch no ...what can i do? to open a case and see if conector is maybe disconected or ? is there need buying new lcd screen?
You can try opening it up and disconnect/reconnect the touch digitizer ribbon cable, if that doesn't work buy a new touch screen digitizer. They're fairly cheap.
so correct me if i'm wrong,there are two parts on the display? lcd screen and that touch screen digitizer??and digitizer is on top?
Yes, there's the LCD screen, then on top the digitizer.
the digitizer costs about 15 bux on ebay, and the lcd with the digitizer costs about 50. my touchscreen stopped responding awhile back, so i had to replace it. word of advice though. the digitizer is kinda build into the lcd, and it is a huge pain (atleast 4 me) to replace it. i ended up cracking my screen doing it, and had to but the whole lcd.
so your suggesting to buy entire lcd screen with digitizer on it?
You can get the lcd+ digitizer from yallstore for 35$ http://www.yallstore.com/htc-tilt-tytn-ii-att-8925-lcd-touch-screen-replacementt56-p-874.html
Which is exactly what i ordered on thursday after my screen cracked.
Replacing JUST the digitizer is quite tricky, i don't know if any of you guys have done it (i have) and it was pretty darn tricky if youve never taken fiddley things apart beware! the digitizer glass is glued on (around the edges) to the LCD, a sharp knife around the edge (the glass WILL crack) and a careful replacedment (i had to solder the ribbon cable on) should help there is a guide somewhere where someone has documented their attempt!
so can i be sure that my problem will be solved with new lcd screen?
please guys i need anwsers fast

Can you be certain this will fix it? No. It's about 99% likely, however. I don't know about you, but I pay alot more than $35/month just for my service. I haven't done the screen on my Kaiser, but I did on my Excalibur, which my son then inherited. To be honest, the Kaiser looks easier from what I've read.
it most probably isn't a software problem, so yes buy a new LCD+digitizer and replace both.
Hey guys, I have just broken my diamond and I'm looking for a doner to repair mine.. My screen glass is cracked..
My screen works and the colours are not spreading..
My touch works and I can still use the device..
So I'm guessing there is glass between the digitizer and the actual display.
Would is be easier to repair it with parts from a doner phone or...
purchase this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FULL-LCD-Scre...K_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item3363b4604e
And replace the whole screen assembly. That includes the full front as you see in the eBay picture...
You're right. There's a glass between digitizer and display... But they are all glued... it's a difficult work to reassemble everything...
Yeah I thought so...
The reason I posted this was to see if anyone had an old broken bricked diamond I could useas a doner for the whole screen..

I tried the same but resulted in completely disaasebling the LCD. And was of no use later. I had to buy a new one. Better get a new on instead.
Yeah, I most likely will
I just asked here to see if I could get one a little cheaper, but then paying around £20-£25 for a brand new screen etc, which includes the screen, digitizer, glass etc...
What you see in the eBay pic is what I would be removing from a doner phone.
But also if I bought a new one from ebay that would then get rid of any scratches etc.
Although I've always had a protector on it from day one, it was bought second hand so there are some minute scratches
Hi
Dropped my Streak today and the glass shattered (LCD is undamaged). I just want to see if any expert here would know if this (http://cgi.ebay.ca/DELL-Streak-mini...956?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f0b03d81c) will work as a replacement. Are these lower quality than the original ones. I know it say OEM but this is ebay so...
Anyway, thanks for your time and expertise.
I replaced my screen the other week, cause the LCD broke and the glass didn't. Bought the same thing as that off eBay. Was easy to replace and works a treat. Not sure about with its the same quality. But they look identical :-D
Long time lurker, first time poster.
Today my phone leaped out of my hand and shattered its screen on impact with the ground.
I rang a local phone repair man, and he said he could replace the glass for £50. Great!
When I got home I did a quick search and found a few places where it said that this is not possible, something to do with the glass being stuck to the LCD underneath. Apparently you need to replace both the screen and the glass together.
Does anybody had any experience with this? Am I going to be stuck with a hefty repair bill?
Thanks
The glass is with the digitizer wich are very hard to be separated, even impossible. But if he has some spare part from another SXL he can give you a lower price i guess. I don't think that the price is to low. Here it costs about 120 eur. So you can ask him if its a new or used one. Just to be clear. And don't forget to take your battery with you when you leave the phone. Because there is 99% chance that they swap your battery
XL imposible to change digitizer only

On HTC XL it is imposible to change digitizer only .I just experience myself and ruined semi usable phone with cracked but fully working glass. Touch digitizer screen and lcd are (unlike some other models) GLUED together.!.
So sellers who sell digitizer only for 30$ are essentialy fakers, not telling you that it is imposible to change Digitizer only. But for 30$ many try and both throw that money and render phone totaly unusable. So they must buy whole LCD +TOUCH assembly that is much expensive. now about 150$ .
TIP: If you have cracked SXL - use it that way if you can (like me 30day with almost no problems) or buy whole assembly. No middle here
like title says
what should i do ?
Buy digitizer for 40 dlls because it was only the digitizer that broke i can still use the Touch of my screen and use the pen
or buy the complete package for 250 dlls ?
Buy the digitizer, plastic pry tools, and some double stick tape. I dont know what you mean by the full package. Goodluck to you

IF your digitizer broke then your touch screen would not be working... if your screen still works then your digitizer is fine...

The digitzer is a film on the back of the glass, if the glass breaks you need to replace it along with the glass.
Anyone else confused?
swyped all these spelling errors from my galaxy note 2
Just a warning, replacing the digitizer/glass alone is going to be fairly difficult for anyone who isn't experienced in phone repairs. It is glued to the LCD and it is extremely easy to break things during the process.
Here is a video (although a bit long) on the process.
I broke my LCD screen as well. Sent to the Samsung service center to have it replaced and cost me $260 including the silver frame.
I managed to find a gnote II with a bad esn for $70 on Craigslist. Scooped it up for the parts, even though it's a fully functioning tablet now.
The digitizer is what u touch. It can shatter and still work.they are cheap. The lcd screen is what u see. Expensive but probably fine. Ive done a couple go slow and its no big deal watch a youtube vid
