I recently cracked my screen on my tp2 and was wondering if there was a way i could tell if it just the screen or the lcd under the glass.
you might want to consider replacing both the LCD and digitizer because they are stuck togeter with some kind of glue, I tried to just replace the digitizer and ended up pulling the whole front off the LCD screen its self. also ended up taring my LCD cable too so be careful

I was wondering what the black stuff between the lcd and digitizer is and where do I get it? My wife and son both broke their digitizers so I decided to replace them. The first phone I did was my wife's and I think I might have removed too much of the black adhesive because the digitizer keeps lifting up allowing dust to get trapped in between. I learned from my first attempt and myy son's went much better and is working perfectly.
I cracked my screen a few months back, and right after it happened I bought a new digitizer to replace the cracked one. The install didnt go very well, since the tape used to adhere the digitizer to the LCD got mangled during removal of the original digitizer. Dust ended up getting between the LCD and Digitizer etc. One other problem I ran into was that the LED's that are supposed to illuminate the home/menu/back/find buttons were now shinning up into the screen and washing it out.
Anyways I got fed up with the dust and bought a new fully assembled screen/digitizer off ebay. I installed it last night and everything is great except that the lights are still shinning up through the glass and washing out the lower inch of the screen. I dont see why this would happen as there is really only one way to put it all back together.
Any insight as to how to get the lights to stop doing this?
Thanks!
Need help here please. Is it possible to replace just the screen glass digitizer of a Nokia Lumia 1520? How? Thanks.

Thank you but this are all screen digitizer with LCD screen display replacements or the full assembly. What I'm looking for is the screen glass digitizer replacement only without the LCD screen display. Because my LCD screen display is still working.

replacing the digitizer is the same procedure + you'll have to separate the digitizer from the lcd (when the assy is removed) which is very difficult to do. The digitizer is glued in place and you'll probably end up with a broken lcd. I would suggest to replace the assy instead of just the digitizer. Yes, I know, the digitizer is only 20-40$ and the complete assy is 170-200$.
It worth a try but be mentally prepared to spend 200$ more just in case...
here is one example how you do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMXA8KyHaFE
then you'll need to clean the lcd from the glue using a glue remover and a blade, being careful not to damage the lcd
and finally apply liquid glue back to the lcd and install the new digitizer and reassemble the whole thing.

I've seen that many have bought the said replacement so I guess it is really possible. It is just not that easy. I've checked other forums and they as well are waiting for a proper video. But thank you for you this.
A cracked screen glass Flex 2 here.. Screen Touch still work like it should. Glass is badly cracked. Don't know this Flex 2 digitize on the glass or on the LCD like Samsung Galaxy phone? Googled without any result of replace glass only.
Digitizer only cannot be replaced, you'll need to replace the digitizer AND led. You can find the combo on eBay/Amazon for about $50-60. I'd recommend getting the digitizer/ led already mounted in the housing for about $10 more, it'll be much easier to replace.
Did anybody try replacing the glass screen on the LG G5? Not the whole digitizer, screen only.
Looks like replacement glass is found quite cheap.

There is a crack on my screen, the touchscreen is perfect. Is there a procedure somewhere that can be followed to get it done? I see a lot of videos for a complete teardown. But is it possible to just use a heatgun to take the glass off and put the new one in?
These display modules are oftenly replaced altoghether, because replacing only the glass requires it to be really precisely fitted and hermetically glued, you can probably try to seperate the digitizer from the display, but you may end up with a some dust underneath the glass or some unwanted gaps.

I had a crack on my screen at the top of when it fell down on concrete floor. I had to buy the whole display with glass and digitizer for about 130 euros. I did not know that you can just buy the glass and replace it with a lower price. Oh well... but if you want to separate the glass from the digitizer or anything what is glued, always use the heatgun. You can also use the hairdryer. I had to replace a battery by opening up a back cover with a hair dryer. For separating the glass from the digitizer you have to heat it up very often, pry it open and hold at several spots, to avoid breaking components. It s quite difficult but take it slowly.

So, if I crack my screen I need to get a screen replacement with frame or just screen replacement?
Screen replacement with frame
https://www.fixez.com/store/lg/lg-g5/lg-g5-display-assembly-with-frame
Screen Replacement
https://www.fixez.com/store/lg/lg-g5/lg-g5-display-assembly-lcd-and-digitizer
You can get without the frame, you will just need to heat up the glue between the frame and old screen to cut through the glue to remove the frame. They cover it on the instruction video on Fixez.
