Dropped my LG Nitro HD and screen is cracked. Cracked screen isn't affecting image display (everything is displayed normally) or touch response (responds normally to touch commands on the entirety of the screen surface). I suppose I could just leave it cracked since there's no loss of performance, but I use my phone for work and it looks very unprofessional. Want to repair it myself but am unsure what part to order. Anyone familiar with the build of the phone who can tell me what part I need in order to repair the cracked glass that isn't affecting performance of image or touch panel?
Thanks!

Hi i have cracked screen in my NEW (!) desire .
There is only a small hairline crack visible in the glass underneath the outer cover of the phone (i assume it's the screen - as seen on the famous tj's tear-down photostory ). The outer glass is completely intact (how the F#$% did that happen?).
When the phone is on the screen is all green, yellow - like a leaked lcd.
So here goes my question: how do i check/know if the digitizer is fine? Or will i only know it after i replace the AMOLED screen?
No expert here, but as far as I know digitizer has to do with the touchscreen, so I guess that if your touchscreen works(font mean the display) the digitizer works too...

Heh,
that is exactly the problem that i don't know if it works. Phone boots normaly, but i can't see anything on the display so i can't see if the digitizer works the straight-forward way.
I think the only way to check that would be to connect the phone to the computer somehow and see some "telemetry" - i was hoping for a suggestion in this area
You can try to use adb logcat boot up your phone and try to push various buttons (blindly ) if logcat shows interactions, digitizer should be fine.
i tried to connect to logcat but it's impossible if the "usb debugging" feature is disable in the phone.
Nevertheless i replaced the display and the phone works perfectly now
(note to self: do not boulder with your desire in your pocket )
how to check that only glass has broken not digitizer? please answer me. i am going to buy phone which is working fine and has only cracked screen which is visible, looks like only glass broken handset, how to know if digitizer is damaged or not ?
Hello guys,
I've been using DHD for quite a long time and I never experienced any problems with this phone until I noticed the digitizer is cracked. I just took the phone out of my pocket and realised that it doesn't react when I touch the screen - there is a small crack in the corner. I think this is just the digitizer because the image is displayed correctly and there are also no scratches on Gorilla Glass (i also used screen protector). I have not dropped the phone recently (neither hit it with a hammer) and I'm wondering if it is possible that the digitizer has a factory defect and what about the warranty in such a case because when I heard what is the cost of repair...
So I dropped my S3 at school today face down on the screen. When I turned it on this is what it looked like: puu.sh/2kZuc. The touch screen is completely unresponsive and was wondering what kind of repair would I need. Would just replacing the LCD work or would it be a backlight issue? etc.
If the touchscreen is not responding, I would say you need to replace the digitizer. Check your pm.
TPU case next time Some people complain, but on flat surfaces it helps break impact
Yes it is your digitizer.
Hi all, i recently bought a new touch panel for my HOX couse the old one is semi working due a fall. With great surprise i see that the original lcd is literally attached to touch glass. So trying to remove original touch, is equal to break original LCD. And this happen to me. However, i bough the a new lcd and finally remount my HOX. But there something strange. The touch is in contact with the display, stange artifacts are visible on the screen on the contact points and the touch has only a semi working response. I've tried to move away the touch from the lcd to be sure that the new components are working...and infact are working well. So i understood thath i must use something to prevent the touch came in contact with the LCD. What can or must i use to complete the remount? Thanks

And that is the reason why you can find lcd panel + touch assembly (yes its more expensive), touch panel is already glued to lcd with "special" compound. It is not glued actually, more like adhesive compound.. When you broke lcd you should go for lcd+touch..
But you can check this one, maybe you find some answers :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1720900 and here :http://www.repairsuniverse.com/htc-one-x-screen-repair-video.html
My friend's phone was damaged (someone sat on it by accident) and now the screen show a reddish big gooey-looking blotch in the middle of the screen.
The touch still works, but the middle area doesn't display anything, so we are trying to find out the needed replacement parts : does he need a full screen with digitizer ? screen with frame? just lcd screen ?
The glass on the screen is intact, nothing is broken. I've never dealt with such problem before, but I need to know before ordering the part online, so I know which one to order.
His device is a Dual-sim D858HK model, I'm also not sure if a replacement part actually exists (only found parts for the D850/855 versions)
I hope someone can help, as this is a first time for me dealing with hardware issues.
