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
Mistakes were made, pockets had holes in them, phones were dropped. Now that I've gotten over the original shock of dropping my glide, I'm reviewing my options. I think i want to just replace the glass myself, but i can't find the part. I've seen a few places selling the whole screen assembly, but from what i can tell, my actual screen under the glass is fine. Does anyone know if i can get -just- the glass? or is the screen and the glass glued together or something?
edit: oh god, a thousand apologies. really didn't mean to post this in this section, could a mod please move? i cant seem to find the delete button.
According to this video

I dont think the glass can be changed without the screen.
This does not belong in the Development Section and I am wondering why no one hit the report button....

My friend dropped his SGS3 a while ago and the screen cracked from one of the top corners. Now I know if it's just the glass, the repair cost isn't really high. But how do you know if it's just the outer glass that's cracked or the actual screen as well? If the screen still works (responds to touch) etc, does it mean its just the outer glass?

If everything else works fine (touch, colors, no leak and such) then chances are the it's only the outer glass. Although, opening it would confirm it.
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 ?

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 All.
Been using nexus 7 2013 since last 2 years. My nephew dropped it and the screen cracked from the side. The device is working fine. The touch doesn't work at the the area of the cracks on the top right, and a few other places. But works everywhere else on the screen. My question is what has to be replaced, the digitizer or the entire LCD. My personal diagnoses is only the upper glass needs to be replaced. Please advice further!
Digitizer is for $15 and the whole thing is for $50. What has to be replaced and how to find out?
Please see the pictures and help me please
Unless you have a way of separating the glass/digitizer from the actual lcd you need the whole assembly. It's all glued together you can't just lift off the glass.

You'd be much better off replacing the whole assembly. Separating the digitizer from the lcd can be done, but the problem is with locating a digitizer that works. I've tried this for about 5 times, and each time I had to return the digitizer to the vendor.
Also, since the bezel (frame) is designed so the digitizer back always touches the lcd surface (they are glued together on the original assembly), you'll have those strange "rainbow" spots on them when the device is turned off.
Not to mention that if you use an adhesive that's too thin, there's a chance the digitizer might be bent, not enough to crack it, but enough to distort touch sensitivity, resulting in some spots being unresponsive. In short, too much of a hassle for a 30-buck saving.
