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!

Hey People,
I had recently brought htc touch hd and simply loved it but i had been putting the same in my pocket without the cover leading to many scratches on the top touch screen. I am looking for a replacement but i really dont know, do i need to change the housing or is it the digitizer or the face plate..i am confused..
With my limited searching skills, if i look for housing, it shows the external body but not sure if its includes the top glass that is scratched. If i look for digitizer, it is the complete touch screen mechanism..does this need to be changed or their is the top glass/film which comes on top of this.. or is it called faceplate.. it would be real helpful if some can give me the link to this top glass/cover or film whatever it is called..
P.S :- My touch screen works absolutely fine and so is the display.

Have you searched on ebay, i always get all my PDA parts there...
As above
i know where to get them but i don't which part is it? Digitizer or Faceplate or Housing?
Hi,
I broke my screen glass and the touch-screen (digitizer?) works just fine, as well as the LCD panel.
I would like to (try to) replace the glass, but I am in a kind of the same dilema as you.
I think the digitizer is touch-receiver + GLASS (not just the thin film).
Can you (or anyone else) confirm this?
Thanks,
cheers,
Nenad

The part you want is the digitizer, that the part you touch with your stylus, the lcd screen sits underneath this, they are glued together and are hard to seperate, buying just the digitizer can lead to many problems, its better to buy an lcd screen and digitizer allready together then just replace the whole thing
I bought a G2 with a broken glass Digitizer. I replaced the digitizer but the LCD screen was cracked as well. So i replace that too. After replacing the glass digitizer and lcd screen the phone would respond in certain areas. SOOO I took the phone apart once more and press the LCD against the Glass digitizer which help with some of the "dead spots" on the screen. But there are still some "dead" spots here and there. Is there anything i could do to have the Lcd screen stick to the digitizer so i don't have these issues. I love my G2 but its useless at points when the multi touch is not working properly.
You should have sent it back on warranty.
Removed "Void" sticker over one of the screws
I removed one of the stickers do you think they'll notice?
no, they'll send you another one as soon as they get the tracking no. from you.
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.

If touch is working, digitizer is good. If not, it's broken. As far as I know, there are basically three layers in Samsung phones, (I think it will be the same for others)
1. Protective glass (as its name protective)
2. Digitizer ( detect touch)
3. Amoled display (produce color)
Hit thanks if this help you
Hey guys
so.. I had the usual touch screen issues which seemed to come and go.. I tried to open the back of the case with my bare hands to re-seat the cable and i managed to crack the screen AND digitizer
Ive now replaced the screen and digitizer with a cheapie off ebay and about 3/4 of the touch screen works now, the top and left edge areas don't work!!!
its a different issue to what i had originally which was just phantom presses, do you think its a dodgy digitizer, i need a new cable or maybe Ive just installed the digitizer wrong? personally i thought i did a really good job.
cheers
