I've cracked the digitizer over the screen. the LCD is fine - but the digitizer is broken. I have seen numerous posts about the screen, but not just the digitizer.
Not ever sure where to look for this one. I love this thing, rooted and overclocked to 1.4 there's not much out there that can top it.
Good luck.. I haven't found one yet, mine has been cracked for months.
If you find a source, PLEASE let me know?
I am in need of one as well. Did you ever find one?

i dropped my Fuze today and i cracked the screen. I'm trying to figure out if its the digitizer that cracked or the LCD can anyone tell me how to check. The screen looks fine when i have it on the black background its hardly noticeable, but when I text you can tell its cracked pretty nicely. I can still use it and see everything just that it annoying and want to get it fixed. They sell them on Ebay for pretty cheap (digitizer that is). i also was wondering if anyone knew where to find instructions on replacing the digitizer I can't seem to find anything.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks
Post some pictures up. Maybe someone can help by looking at it.
regardless if its just the digitizer or the screen, from what I've read, its easier to probably change them both. You're looking at a cost of no more then $100. That's a little bit over what you can find them for on the bay. i dont think the digitizer was actually meant to be easily disassembled at our level. If you need help disassembling your TP otherwise though, try mikechannon.net
I'll have pictures up tonight....
I just figured it out that its the touchscreen itself... The LCD is intact because there is not bleeding of any sort..... Does anyone know of a place that repairs this sort of thing?
Not recommended to separate digitizer with the lcd. It has a special glue (more like clear double tape) to attach them together that really really sticks. I tried to separate them with cutter blade and crack the lcd. There was an advise I read on the internet somewhere to use dental floss. Try google it.
And be careful of choosing the replacement, you could end up with this problem. Well ... I did....
I just got my digitizer in the mail and contemplating doing the repair myself.... has anyone done it or can point me to the right direction to just replace the digitizer?
Good Luck .....
Below are pictures of the result. I don't know the correct procedures of separating those two.
Just .... don't do my mistakes.
Good Luck.
hey
today my sgs fell out of my car and the screen digitizer is broken just see the photos
do you know any site where i can get in original digitizer???
Dank u
Look in my thread and you find your answer. I bought my digitizer from here: http://cgi.ebay.com/Digitizer-LCD-Display-Screen-f-Samsung-Galaxy-S-i9000-/120595111860?cmd=ViewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1c14075fb4
thank u man
i will check this digitizer immediately could you say how long do you take in get it home ??
and how was the quality sorry for make in new thread i just was looking here but didn't find nothing about the broken screen
yeah, just do it yourself
Same Problem
I had the same experience my phone fell from hands from 3ft height on the ground and it developed crack not as many as yours, one single crack across the face. I just wanna know has your digitizer arrived .and when your screen cracked was it working normally ,because mine is working all right just the crack is there.
U have to pay ~50 .. ~60$
Replacing your own screen... you guys are pretty amazing.
hey i just orden mine in about 10 working day i will get it and you have to orden the full combo cuz the digitizer dont come alone for the moment

I just noticed that cnn.cn now has the SGS digitizer on sale.
repairs
I will fix any broken galaxy s screen for £120 or buy the broken phone off you for £150.
The Part is preety much the whole phone you only save the mainboard and backcase.
the vib motor speaker all that sort of stuff is part of the screen.
So if you are buying just the glass or screen of ebay they are fake parts are void the warranty, also the quality will be very different.

My screen is broken to, but the LCD is not. The phone works in 100%, even touch, but the glass is broken. I am not sure, is the digitizer everything that I need or do I have to buy LCD+digitizer to repair it.

Same question.
Sorry for the ress, but didn't find anything saying about just the glass broken.

They come as 1 part, so you'll need to replace both.
As the title states I have a cracked digitizer. Do not think the LCD is damaged as the display works fine and there are no signs of bleeding. I have gone through here and read several threads about replacing the digitizer/screen and have also contacted HTC about repairs. Buying a digitizer myself will only cost about $30-40. However; I have read threads on differences in the digitizers as well as when self-replacing there is a HIGH probability of dust, fingerprints and response being not up to par. Now to just send it in would be somewhere around $160 and I would know it is perfect. What are your guys' thoughts? And if you have done the repair yourself please let me know how it was.
I replaced an LCD and digitizer on mine and it wasn't too bad. I also own an HTC HD2, that phone was hell to replace the digitizer, I failed and sold it all in pieces. This phone however, was much easier, and I left NO specs of dust under the screen. Just make sure to replace it after a hot shower, and use a duster. On a random note, I bought another hd2 that had a new digitizer replaced on Craigslist, it has dust under it that I didn't notice -_-. Don't forget to check!
Yeah. I was thinking about just doing it myself. Only thing is the thing with the different digitizers. Supposedly it makes the screen laggy or even unresponsive if you have the wrong one. That's what I have read. Not really too sure though...
Try this post, replacement digitizer and instruction video.
Sweet. I will definitely check it out. At the moment I am fiddling around with my new SGS2 so the Sensation is taking a nap

Huh HD2... Yes I had same trouble... Mine was refurbished when I bought it and guess what? It was fu****g super glued together! I spent 2 hours just to open it.
Later on, I thought only digitizer was cracked but when I removed it (1,5 hours) I found out that LCD is damaged too (on the edges). Just to be sure, I ordered touch+LCD already assembled (dust free of course) and I`m waiting for it now...
I also got me a newSensation XE which is definitly A LOT easier to dissasemble...
Try it yourself, you can always send it back to offical repair centre...
Could you link me to where you got your assembly? It may be easier and more beneficial for me to just get the complete kit and call it a day.

Found somewhere that does it for $80. Might just do that. Don't wanna deal with the hassle of tearing it apart...

I recently dropped my TF300 (in the process of jerry-rigging a carrying case for it, might I add) and it happened to shatter the glass and tear some of the ribbon for the digitizer, rendering it completely useless. The LCD beneath is fine, in fact I have already separated the LCD from the digitizer itself.
My question is:
Can I buy a replacement digitizer for the TF200 and install it to my TF300?
They seem to be the same ribbons and i'm sure the dimensions are the same.
The problem is the digitizer for the TF300 is around $150 and just $50 for the TF200.
Dude word of advice only buy the tf300 glass. But replacing it will be a pain but good luck to you

Almost sure,,
Hello hello,
i recently smashed up the same digitizer of my tf300t. There are no videos about opening the thing, so i proceeded and could unplugged the digitizer without any complication. So, after long searching i found ur question and realize that the connector is just the same. I'm almost sure that tf200 should work properly with tf300.
best regards,
Abrhm
Not the same
I'm sure you have probably figured this out by now, since it's been months, but the TF200 and the TF300 digitizers are indeed DIFFERENT.. And the TF300 can be procured pretty easily these days for about $70.00..
So, this is for the benefit of anyone else who happens to stumble across this post.
Also, heed, there has been a significantly high rate of folks, myself included, who have changed the digitizer out only to find that the touch-screen still doesn't work due to some other issue..
Hey all,
Client brought in a TF300T with a cracked digitizer, good LCD, but no touch response. Changed digitizer, everything works but touch. Original digitizer has no "G0_" number on it, but replacement is a G01.
Because the digitizer wasn't working in the first place, would this be a bad digitizer PCB? I've been searching forums for the past hour but haven't found any fixes for this particular scenario. Attached are images of the digitizers.
Thanks!
