So if I wanted to replace it, would i replace the LCD screen itself or the digitizer? Not sure as the photos of where I can buy both of these items do not make it very clear which part I need.
MOST phones are just the glass itself. LCD Digitizer is the LCD display this is like this

but many phones the digitizer is attached to the glass(My Galaxy S 4g) I would just recommend going to your local flea market and look for a phone guy. They're the cheapest.
Depends how much it´s scratched, but general is just the digitizer.
That's what I thought. The LCD screen is a tad recessed for it to be the top of the screen... now i know for future reference
Wow you hardly broke it :$

Are you sure it's not the shatter-resistant film that's scratched? It can be removed, and the screen won't scratch as easily (just try not to drop the phone if you do)
That would be it, the only thing i ever removed from my screen was the thing plastic protector that all devices have on their screens now.. Thanks!
HOLY SH*T!!!!!!!!
Ur poor phone...when i see it i thing it is better buy a new one or insurance...

its come to my attention that there's a plastic piece covering the hinge on the back of the phone ?? is this really the case ?? a user on another forum says that he got back his phone without that covering, while i've never had that piece to begin with. reason i'm asking is because i'm not sure whether not having that covering (if its really supposed to be there) could compromise the durability of the hinge in the long run
would really appreciate it if somebody could post pics of their phone at a similar angle so i could check and compare and maybe use it at the service centre in case they try any funny business.
here's a picture of my phone:

and the other guy's phone. the hinge in question is marked with a red box:
*will post the other picture once i get permission*
I looked at mine and do not see any plastic covering my hinges. I will take a picture and upload it later when I have my camera.
thanks dude.
bump up!!
Here is the photo of my phone. It is a T-Mobile USA Touch Pro 2.
Here is a closer view
Hi, I've had a misfortunate experience this morning: my Desire fell down and now the touchscreen is unresponsive although the AMOLED screen is still intact. The front layer of Gorilla glass screen is also intact, so only the second layer along with the digitizer layer broke.
Anyway, I teared it all apart and now I'm looking to buy a new digitizer. Here's a photo of a chip of my original digitizer:

}
And here's the photo of a digitizer I plan to buy:
Please help me decide if the digitizer I want to buy will suite my AMOLED Desire.
As you can see the main difference is that the original digitizer has "E6" written in the white squre while the new digitizer has "E4" written in the place. Is it already too much of a difference for it to suite my phone?
Best regards
Afaik you can change digitizer as you want. It is the screen that can't be changed - you can't put amoled screen in slcd device and vice versa.

Second opinion? Anyone pls?
Awhile back I bought a screen protector and it came in.
I read the instructions and everything, finally ready to apply.
I start applying and the first thing I notice is 3 layers of **** protecting the screen protector.
So eventually I ruined the first one because of dust and didn't know what ****ing layer was the screen protector.
I start on number two with a better attitude thinking I got this *****, the hell you know it gets screwed over. Apparently somewhere in between applying I bent the *****.. and this causes it to look like **** even then there was bubbles everywhere, where it says its bubble free
I don't even want to apply number three because I know something horribly will go wrong. Did anyone else use this brand and what was your experience?
I'd also like to note it did get scratched when applying the film too. Piece of **** companies
To top it off I got my case in too and it looks used, looks like a coffee stain on the back and was poorly cut.

my son borken my opo one lcd screen and i have to buy a new lcd screen for a replacement.first i won't know the lcd screen has different quality and in order to save 5-7usd i bought from a site.After 2 weeks the Display arrived well pachaged but without any kind of protection on screen. Capacitive buttons work but there is no light from them so i have to guess were to press back, home or recent tasks.
So if your opo lcd screen was broken too ,please make sure the lights is ok before you buy it..Of course there are a lot of site has write in their description and promis with the softkey illumination light.if write this it will 100% be ok.no like mine lcd screen.

i also broke my screen.
would you be able to let me know where you bought the screen? if you could provide link that would be great
Thank you for your sharing! It will be more helpful!
I bought my replacement digitizer and screen from Vifocal on AliExpress: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-100-Original-LCD-Display-Screen-Touch-Screen-Assembly-Replacement-for-Oneplus-One-64GB-16GB-Smart/2039112357.html
It took 4 weeks to arrive by post, nicely packaged with a toolkit (but no adhesive strips or glue) and has the three tabs for the capacitive buttons - I haven't fitted it yet.

The screen has cracked for a very long time but still functional. Just now, it fell once again and then a white-ish thin line appeared at the very right corner, but I ignored it as it does not disturbed me. Few hours later, I think i put a little pressure into this pressure (But I'm pretty sure i am not, because my the only thing i did was to put it inside of my jeans pocket) and poof! Half of the screen cannot be seen clearly (refer picture). But still could function as in I could still use the touch screen mode at the affected area. Could this lcd screen problem be saved without replacing the lcd with a new one? Replacing it is my last resort if I could save it DIY. Help me, thanks!
Yeah, sure, via a software update. That'll also give you wireless charging, but only if you charge the phone inside the microwave.
You've cracked the screen! What sort of DIY fix you assume can exist, besides replacing it?
tired of cheap ebay screens, what replacement screen do yall recommend?
OnePlus RMA. It isn't overly expensive.
From memory, it was around £90 for me.
