So I dropped my phone and its screen broke
The upper glass is not broken but the glass inside it is.
The phone turns on but nothing is displayed on the screen, it stays black
The soft keys do light up and work
Most probably its the LCD screen but I still want to confirm if I have to change the digitizer too
Thanks a lot

i accidentally let my HD fell on the ground one day when i get off my car..
when i picked it up i found that there's a crack on the screen, and the phone won't turn on until i pull out the battery and put it back
initially i thought it would be the damage to the LCD screen, but seeing the boot up screen i see no damage to the LCD, instead feels like there's a protection glass between the touch surface and the LCD screen... which is broken by now
is there any way to get it repaired? i'm living in China and i bought the HD from UK...
I think the part that you are looking for is the touch screen part. Try looking at ebay for some spare parts, maybe you can try to fix it yourself at home.
I am so sorry man. I can really feel you pain.
I would advice you to contact HTC directly and explain them the problem. I am sure they would get back to you with a solution.
Good Luck.

Hmm.. I thought the touchscreen shouldn't be usable if that's the touch screen part..? But it's still usable, just the crack is ugly on such an amazing device...
I don't think with my handwork I should try this myself disassembling my HD.. It would be stupid if I break something

Hmm, thanks mate.
Anyway, I was just wondering, if that glass is just for protection for such a enormous screen (I noticed Diamond don't have that class, you can see some waves on the LCD if you press hard enough; and at the same time mine broken but touchscreen still as sensitive as ever), maybe we can just customize some tempered glass like the iPhone screen and replace the original one?
It's a shame that it's so fragile, with the phone selling such a price. I could buy an LCD TV with the same price..
Any technicians can confirm what does that glass actually exists for?

Yeah, it's with screen protector.. But I don't think there's any help with just a slice of plastic sticking on the screen..
Anyway, the problem is I dropped it while it's in the stock pouch, screen parallel with the ground... Kinda lying on the ground
I AM SOORY , i spesk very little english and I am so sorry man. I can really feel you pain.
i have same problem with the glass that between the most surface layer and the LCD screen.
what happen with you ? and where ?
glass also broker
My phone screen also cracked but it works fine (both the touch function and the screen as no LCD spillage), the only thing is the hairline cracks on the screen (it seems that there is a glass between the touch screen and the lcd screen - i sent it to service here in Greece and said they need 320 Euros to replace the screen and casing !!
I'm looking for the best alternative solution on EBAY but i'm confused.
Is this what i need?

hi
I have some scratchs on my screen and I am looking for a replacement digtizer.
I found several on ebay,
http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=xp...+screen&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
Have anyone replaced the digitizer or know if this are original?
Thanks!
Did you remove the factory screen protector for some reason and not replace it? Or did your phone not come with a factory screen protector?

Hi
I removed the factory screen protector. when I got a couple of scratches I applied a new protector.
But the few scratches I have are ittitating me!!!!
Hi, I recently changed my digitizer. Put on a black one on my white phone. They are all real, I have not seen any fakes around. I also bought mine off of ebay.
--duplicate--
I wish one of these ebay listings gave a part number or model number for the digitizer... for obvious reasons.

Is this digitizer is the same part i need to change when my screen gets cracked ?
The story is my phone fell down and the screen got cracked and kinda ink appeared around the line of crack..
I was really wandering which part to change since the touch was working fine..

Hey Mezo,
The digitizer is factory glued with the top glass and is considered one piece since you can't separate the two. The LCD is separate from the digitizer. If your LCD is cracked, then your display will be distorted with lines across the screen. If your top glass is cracked, then your digitizer will still work since the digitizer is not as fragile as the top glass. So the question is, is the top glass cracked? Is the LCD display cracked as well? I know your digitizer will still be functioning but you might want to consider buying a new one as for the cracks may be unappealing and annoying.
I simply broke the top glass and I did not like the crack spanning across my screen so I got myself a new one.
If your LCD is damaged then you need to buy a new LCD which is not cheap... (over $100).
@trojjanhorse
the top layer which i touch is functional, so that means i have broken the LCD ?
i appreciate if you have a look on them i attached some pic, i hope they are clear enough since i took them with 3mp cam
thanks for the help in advance, i don't know much about mobile displays

Most likely you have broken the LCD. When dark pixels appear like that, it usually means that you've directly struck the LCD itself and damaged that area.
It was a thin line at first then some Ink started to flow and became bigger the next day.
So its the LCD?
should I fix it at the service center or i can replace it myself?
sent from my x10i that is banging for a 2.1 upgrade. ...
You can, in theory, fix it yourself but it'll be a biatch of a job. Use the X10 undressing post to find out how to actually take it to bits...
Then put the new LCD in.
only issue is finding somewhere that sells them... I don't know if they're a generic 854x480 lcd or what so...
To change LCD is very simple, but to change the digitizer is suicide. You will need to get a new LCD. I would buy one off of ebay and install it myself. I've been fixing phones for 2 years now so I had my share of experience but it may be difficult for you. The black liquid is due to the fact that LCD stands for "Liquid" Crystal Display
Good luck.
Hey everyone. I dropped my phone today......my brand new phone :'(
Screen fractured on the top, but the phone still works, touch screen is in tact, all functions still work like normal.
Question:
What do I need to buy now to replace the damaged screen, because I don't LIKE it!
I see that people are selling the outer glass screen lens like this, for $20ish
http://www.ebay.com/itm/U-For-Samsu...ltDomain_0&hash=item4d0314f1ff#ht_3326wt_1159
and then people are selling complete LCD with Digitizer (whatever that is) for $225
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-F...276?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35be08ef4c
The phone is working fine...it's just the glass. Which one do I have to get?
Thanks so much!

If the glass is glued to the digitizer, then why would so many people be selling the glass alone without the digitizer if there wasn't any use for it?
I dropped my phone and the screen is messed up (see picture in the attachment).
3/4 of the screen purplish with horizontal lines. The top 1/4 is visible. The entire touch through the screen is working even where the screen cannot be seen. My glass seems to be fine and no damages. Someone please help! How do I fix this? Do I just need to get the LCD touchscreen + digitizer?
I was thinking about buying this and doing the replacement myself. I'm just not to sure how to do it. And do I need to buy a new glass or will I be bale to put my glass onto it? Would appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Take it to a repair shop or two ask for damage level and get a quote. You will know what to replace!
You need to change screen and digitizer, its impossible to separate them.
Here samsung tech services charge 140€.
So today I dropped my lg g2 while it was in the quick window cover or smartcover or whatever it's called and the screen got shattered literally
So there's this crack that goes just from the top of the screen to the very bottom in the middle of the phone as if the screen has been cut into two halves, and now the side of the glass responds a little bit to touch I can answer calls for example..but the left side is useless or when I press a little hard on the left side the touch responds in a crazy way :s so what does that mean ?
that I need my LCD and digitizer and gorilla glass replaced ? Or just the digitizer and gorilla glass ? Or gorilla glass only ? Since the screen responds somehow to some touches
The display has no problems in black areas or dead pixels or sth
And what is front housing ? I found it on eBay but didn't get it
About Digitizer, where is it located ? Under the LCD ??
Thanks
First of all questions go in the q&a thread and as for your phone digitizer is not working but is a very dangerous and risky job so I recommend you either buy an LCD with digitizer or take it to a repair shop

Why is the digitizer not working r u sure ??
I am telling you I can touch the screen on the left half of the screen I can even open diaper and call someone
I think that the shattered glass somehow Press on the display making it thing that someone is touching it there at the cracks
Just a thought
Correct me if I am wrong

Well, you did drop it...
it's because G2 has two different connectors for digitizer so one side is working and and the other is not (should be upper side and lower side)

the digitizer is in between the screen and the lcd.
I would not try to split the screen/digitizer from the lcd. Even if you accomplish this you are going to have to be extremely careful not to get anything in between the new screen/digitizer and lcd when you repair it. you would also need to make sure that you create a complete seal so that no dust/lint/foriegn bodies get in between them after. It is so much easier to get one already pre-assembled (screen/digitizer/lcd)
you can pick up a new screen/digitizer/lcd off amazon for about 120-180, mine came with an install kit as well ( no adhesive but all the tools necessary to dismantle the phone).
Then youtube "LG G2 screen replacement" Its fairly easy and simple to do.
If you decide to go this route vice sending it in I would watch the video() a couple times and then follow along with it as you perform the repair yourself.

Just trust you need to buy the lcd digitizer assembled. The fact that your asking if it's broken shows you probably don't have the skills necessary to simply replace one part. Its actually extremely tricky to do. I fix phones for a company but i hate replacing just onr half of the assembly.

The digitizer is a part of the screen. It's the zero gap technology that LG boasts about and while it's awesome I general, it's a pain if your screen cracks. You won't be able to find a digitizer alone or a lcd alone for the g2 these come together
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Okay so this is the back of a g2 digitizer and if yours is cracked right throughout the middle that means that somewhere around the silver/black lines it broke and the touch can't fully communicate with the cable that connects to the phone at the top/bottom
