I've got a friend who dropped her VK810 right after buying it. No insurance. The top of the digitizer is cracked, but everything works swimmingly. She'd like to replace the cracked glass, though.
I can't find ANYWHERE that offers the VK810 digitizer all by itself. I can find the digitizer + LCD in a package for the V500 all over the place, though. So...
(1) Do the VK810 and V500 have the same LCD & Digitizer?
(2) Does anyone know of a place I can purchase a digitizer alone?

the digitizer probably includes the cutouts for the camera/sensors. v500 and vk810 have different locations for those items (that's why screen protectors are not universal across the v500/vk810)
Thanks. Anyone know where the digitizer for the VK810 can be found?

Hey guys, today I dropped my Desire HD and the screen cracked. The touchscreen works fine, so my guess is that the LCD is not affected, only that glass ontop of it. Is there any way I can change it without replacing the whole LCD screen?

If it's just the glass that's cracked and everything else is fine (No visible cracks/defects in the LCD itself) then you just need to get a new Digitizer. This is the glass panel on top of the LCD that picks up the touch input.
You can pick them up for pretty cheap on ebay, postage will depend on where you live. In my case I can get one for €18 from an English seller including postage to Ireland so should be similarly priced for wherever you live.

Also here's a video with instructions on how to replace the Digitizer.

Hi,
The screen from my lg g2 d802 broke yesterday.
Half of the touchscreen still works but the other part doesn't work anymore.
Do I need to repare the whole LCD or just the glass?
The LCD seems fine, so I don't know what to do.
Just replacing the glass is so much cheaper than replacing the whole LCD.
Byeee
Try ebay , picked mine up for $78. Make sure it's for your model and it's glass, digitizer and lcd combined.
I dropped my g3 and cracked the digitizer... the screen is still fine... but I can't find any diy tutorials for digitizer replacement...
anybody know some tutorials or videos?

You will need a LCD digitizer separating machine since the digitizer is hermetically sealed to the LCD. These machines can be found on eBay ranging anywhere between $100 to $300 or more. Look here on how to disassemble the LG G3.
http://www.etradesupply.com/blog/cost-of-repairing-a-cracked-screen-on-the-lg-g3/
This website lists the component costs of the glass, digitizer, lcd and lcd assembly. You may just want to send it to LG for repair if you have phone insurance. The deductible is cheaper than the total cost of the parts and separating machine. Here is the URL for separating the digitizer. http://www.etradesupply.com/blog/replace-glass-screen-galaxy-smartphones/
Although it says galaxy smartphones, the procedure is the same for all smartphones.

I read somewhere on another post that you could just use beans or rice to heat up the screen and seperate it. but how do you glue back the new digitizer?

Didn't you read the second link I listed? Step #4 Double sided adhesive and roll out air pockets after adhering the digitizer to glass. Then place in vacuum machine to remove all air pockets. Never heard of rice and beans method. Do you eat the rice and beans afterwards?
I have had a bad luck and my phone fell out of my pocket and got cracks on the screen, i think its digitizer because the picture is all perfect inside the screen otherwise the liquid would have defiantly came out of the LCD!!!
I have tried pressing on the cracked class and see if liquid comes out or it forms a black spot or anything but nothing happened!!!
The combo of LCD & Digitizer costs 2500-4000 Indian Rupees while only 800Rs for Digitizer so i am thinking of only buying figitizer from ebay but i dont know any way to separate the LCD & Digitizer
Anyone have any idea on doing that and how can i put the digitizer back on LCD?
Thanks!
P.S. The touch is working perfectly even when cracked heavily!
Yep, you heard me ask if the lg g pad 8.3 v500 lcd is removable from its digitizer. To cut the story short, my lg g pad 8.3 has a cracked LCD wherein there are lines and colors running all over the screen when its on but its still functional and the touch screen digitizer is fully responsive.
I've seen a lot of parts on Ebay but it costs a lot and the lcd is always bundled with the touchscreen digitizer. I saw one ad on ebay wherein its a cracked digitizer but has a fully functional lcd and its price is way cheaper. I just need the lcd there but i dont have a clue if the LCD can be separated from the touch screen digitizer.
Some of you might tell me to just go ahead and just test it myself but i am no technician. I just plan to have it fixed by my local repair store and provide him the replacement part.
I hope someone can tell me the answer.

You can separate the two parts but it really isn't recommended.
You will spend hours doing it and will probably break one, if not both, while trying.
Search for some guides of videos on doing it, that will give you an idea of how hard it is and what tools are needed.
They really only sell them separately to get more money from you, you'll go for the cheap option and then when it fails you'll buy the assembled version.
Your choice though, I understand extremely tight budgets.
