The digitizer is completely shattered, but also the top part is exposed and I have no clue what function that part has. Or if it's damaged beyond repair.
Tablet is working, but no response to touch, which is understandable
Considering the extensive damage, would there be any point in buying a new lcd and replacing it or should I just trash the tablet?

Hello everyone,
this is my sad story and I would like you to help myself out of this pervading sadness....:crying:
I don't know how it happened, but the screen of my archos 101 g9 cracked: the touchscreen still works, the glass has no damage, but underneath the glass there is a wide crack from side to side, with a huge stain (lcd liquid?) coming out from the cracks.
what is to be replaced?
i found this one, is that what I need? http://www.ebay.it/itm/251174616903...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_1598wt_1167
thank you very much

I think you need a new screen. But mostly possible you will not be able to replace it if you're not skilled at repairing small things.
Touch screen digitizer is not what you need if your touchscreen works normally.

thanks, I know someone who can halp me.
where I can buy it online? I looked for it, but each time I find something I can't say if I'm going to buy a screen, touchscreen, digitizer or somethingelse... I can't identify what is what I'm looking at
Hi viewers, as you can see in the image attachment there, i'm just wondering what i am dealing with here so i kinda need your help telling me what that is, its definitely internally...the Lcd is fine, and i can still pull down the status bar when i touch over it... i don't really know how this happened and it bothers me, so yeah need some info >_<
Oh and if possible direct me to a link i need to buy a spare part to replace anything... thank you very much, appreciate your respone

Was the phone dropped as it looks like some damage on the top corner there or did a liquid get into the phone as it kinda looks like the digitizer got separated from the lcd screen as i had a phone that kinda looked like that and salt water got into it and salt water will really work things over faster.
But if the digitizer did lift it would have to be separated from the lcd screen and put back down again which is not a fun job to do as i believe there is a special film in between the digitizer and lcd screen that would have to be replaced, if not careful when separating the two the lcd screen can be broken very easy, i have replaced the whole digitizer and screen as one unit without any problems..but i never tried to separate the digitizer from the lcd myself..but if the whole digitizer + screen have to be replaced the assembly are a little over a $100 US.
But by your pic this is all i can suggest at this time as if the digitizer itself has to be replaced that is up to you as that is a more delicate job then just replacing the whole digitizer+lcd screen assembly.
Oh i'm very sorry man for late reply, busy lately... anyway thank u very much for your response and what i need to know...well i'm probably just going to leave it like that for now :/ i've all checked around for that digitizer+Lcd together, really expensive... so yeah thx again
Good evening!
My S3 has just fallen down. Now only physical buttons, back and menu are working. Screen has no physical damage but the digitalizer is not getting ANY of my touch. This makes me thing that it can be the internal connections. If it was broken I believe some screen zones would be still recognised. Then, I believe (and hope) digitalizer is in a well state. What are your thoughts about this?
Apart from this, how can I open the phone to check the connection. I've seen videos in which they replace the screen but I don't know if I can follow this procedure since, if it is still working, I don't know if I could re-glue it again.
Please, what can I do?
Thanks!

It is very possibly your digitizer can be broken but not show any physical damage. If it happened right after a fall then this is a real possibility.
Do not try to pull the screen sections apart you will damage it. Get a new whole screen assembly
Thank you very much for the answer!. Could you please send me a reference of the whole screen assembly I need? You mean digitalizer plus lcd? just digitalizer? Could you provide me a good but cheap one?.

You will need the glass, lcd and digitizer. The term "whole screen assembly" should be enough.
Thanks for the info. I've seen prices of this replacement set and it's about 100$ (80€). I don't think I should pay so much for a 2-year phone. I am thinking about taking a Xiaomi redmi note 4g for 169€.

Yer it is pricey, atleast in my country almost just as expensive to by a new s3 rather than get a new screen when you way up the aspects of a new phone plus the warranty
SCH-i605 But I'd like to use an N7100 or T899 Model digitizer, as I have credit for Amazon, and would like to order one, as no one has answered my question yet about digitizer working or not... Can't afford the whole assembly unfortunately.
Should not have a problem there. The real difference between the models is the modem and cpu used in the international versions. The frame and screen are the same for all of them.

Thanks... my only other qualm, is if the digitizer is actually broken. I think it is but the bottom capacitive buttons work, as does the spen. So I'm not sure.
Mods, please move, I did not realize I posted to devel
Sounds like possibly the digitizer, does the spend work on the whole screen?

YES! yes it does... and capacitive buttons work.
Then I would rule out the digitizer. It wouldn't read any inputs if it was that. I would perhaps wipe cache and dalvik and see if that helps.

Did a factory reset.... gonna try just a lens, and if it still doesn't work, then I'll get the digitizer.
Also, I checked for sub cracks, but the LCD (? LED?) is fine, and there's no sub cracks that are visible at different angles.
Wouldn't figure that since you said your s pen works on the whole screen. Could be just a glass issue since it's a capacitance screen but good luck getting that separated from your digitizer and lcd.

Heat gun works right? the glue de bonds or what not at like 170-180 ? I've done this on an S4 before.
It is possible but with great care. I personally have never had much luck with a heat gun. They do make a machine like a hot plate for that purpose. Been looking into it but have never moved forward.
Well I hope to do good, but again if I have issues I will just get a replacement. I will try again with digitizer if I Bork it some how .
Good luck to you. Use a piano wire and take your time. With luck it should work out.

What note? Get it? Lol. But seriously what size piano wire? I am hoping that I don't need a digitizer, and I've been left with the impression that if the s-Pen works 100% that the digitizer is fine. So I'm hoping if I replace this glass, I can touch it again. I would really hate to do this, just to have to do it again.

Hello people!
I just dropped my phone display first into the floor.
The only visible damage is a tiny arced crack at the right edge of the screen, but that was enough to screw up the whole touch screen because the phone seems to activate touch around the crack, which leads me to my first question:
1 - Is there a way to disable part of the touch screen?
I can live without touch in the area of the damage, just not without any working touch
2 - Is there a way to hardware test using a PC to evaluate the extent of the damage?
3 - Do I buy just the screen, the screen + LCD or screen + LCD + frame?
4 - How do I know which OEM of Ebay to buy? Can I trust the ones saying it's an original Sony Screen + LCD?
Thank you for taking the time to answer these questions. I do believe there are more people out there with same or very similar questions.
HI,
I had craked my z2 screen twise
in my experience u need to replace the whole LCD screen .
i had craked my Z before, but for Z , the crak didnt affect other parts , you can use the phone , but for z2 no hope.

in this case no, Z2 LCD display is seperateed from the glass
you can weirdly find glass and screen put as one but thats some sort of odd scam :/

Thank you so much for giving me the answer I wanted to hear. Unfortunately I can't find any videos on how to do this for the Z2. Have you done it? I'm curious to know whether the display is allover glued to the digitizer as in the case of the Z1 or if it's just glued around the corners of the screen as in the M2. Mind you that this is simply observations I've made from watching youtube videos, so the above mentioned information might not be correct.
man, u cannot separate the display and digitizer . its a single glass. for Z2. u need to replace the single glass
You could try finding parts from aliexpress, try looking through the feedbacks before ordering.
Or if you are not too bothered by the cracks you could just put on a screen protector or a tempered glass screen protector.
Try going into youtube and search witrigs for teardown and repair videos.
Wish you good luck! ?

Hi guys,
My Screen cracked, i order a new screen. I install it right with instructions. LCD screen works about 1 minutes, but now the phone has so called ghost touches.
What might be a problem? LDC-screen is broken?

Yeah!
I did take a chance and purchased a new glass without display. Good news is I never got an opportunity to use it, so I might be able to return it. Bad new is I'm now buying a front glass and lcd.
Even though it might technically be possible to just exchanging the front screen, I would say it's highly improbable that you will successfully do so.
Judged by my level of technical tinkering, I would say that a vast majority of the people in this forum will probably fail in exchanging front glass without exchanging lcd.
I'm not saying this to put anyone down, but I'm giving you the advice I wish I would've gotten before getting over-confident.
So for goodness sake,
BUY FRONT GLASS+DIGITIZER+LCD, and save yourself both time, headache, and possibly money
Hi, i'm waiting for my Z2 replacement screen and i have a question for those who have changed it, does the sensitivity of the touch screen is the same like the original? I mean the option that you can use the phone with gloves...
Thanks!
How much did it cost u, repairing the screen
