I found a cheap OPO on craigslist, for $10 but the issue with it is, the digitizer is broken and only works on the top part of the screen. Is there a cheap OPO screen replacement with the mid-frame for ~$25?

You'll find many on eBay or Aliexpress.

I have to buy a new screen+digitizer, but on ebay there is a seller selling it for $55 but not for Spain.... The rest of the sellers are for about $90... I know that it's not the cost of the part and pisses me off.... any other place ?
For SGS you can not replace only the digitizer (unfortunately). The way the SAMOLED screen is glued to the digitizer is making it almost impossible for an end-user, with regular tools, to replace it.
You will have to go for the full screen (digitizer + SAMOLED) which is about $90USD.
Anyway, $90 is still MUCH cheaper than a new phone.
I am looking for HTC Desire S digitizer replacement, because mine is pretty scratched from previous owner. Of course I will buy it from ebay, but I am wondering am I looking for right digitizer?
For example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Touch-S...ultDomain_0&hash=item27bc37a0c0#ht_3927wt_952
Digitizers list: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trk...tpos=&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14.l1513&gbr=1&_pgn=1
Will this one fit for me perfectly? I am little confused, because looking for my phone ebay shows me digitizers for HTC Desire S S510E G12, and so far I know that's dual card chinese copy...

it should be ok. But i'm always wary of stuff that comes from Hong Kong (no offence to anyone and yes i understand most of the cheap stuff from UK sellers is the same thing)
Also this one seems better because the tools are free with it: http://www.ebay.com/itm/DIGITIZER-T...939?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2a19160cf3
And you can forget Gorilla Glass , you will get cheap plastic digitizer...

the actual glass and the digitizer are two different things. So if it's just the digitizer, that's fine
i agree, i would be cautious ordering from hong kong on ebay as i have many times had issues with sellers when ordering phone parts..
I am not wondering about buying parts from ebay/HK this time as will it be allright for my phone...

Oh, I didn't even realise that. Will there be any noticable difference from original digitizer now on my Desire S and that one selling @ ebay for 10-15$ ?

well the last time i changed the digitizer was with the iphone 3g. The replacement was a cheap £10 one and to be honest i could not tell the difference.

are you saying that over this digitizer screen we have one more protecting glass ?
then there is no reason to OP change digitizer

If i'm correct it usually works like this: lcd--gorilla glass--digitizer and they're all glued together.
If you follow a tutorial such as this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaawEVWZvG4 you should be good.
I think Gorilla glass is what you touching wit you fingers (scratch protection for digitizer) and front glass with digitizer is in one part as in picture posted before. So if you buy cheap china touch screen - you will get digitizer with plastic on top. As I said - you can forget Gorilla Glass front lens.

Dont mean to jump on someone else's thread but didnt see the point of making a new one. im getting a lot of ghosting/ image bleed. would it be a digitizer replacement i need? if so is it easy to replace and could i use my existing glass as it is in really good nick.
borken glass
so ye i was clutz and dropped my phone and is cracked through out. looks like the screen is fine behind the glass. so my question is where should i go to replace the glass particularly in the gta area? i heard samsung doesnt do a great job. any hellp is appreciated thank you
I did mine myself and have had no problems since. There's a youtube on dismantling the phone that can walk you through it if you're not comfortable doing this kind of thing. The only real problem is the money... the cheapest I was able to find a replacement for was $170 on ebay. But, the seller was reputable, and the replacement was new. The issue is the fact that the glass, digitizer and LCD are made as one piece. I have an extra bezel/backpanel from attempting to extract the broken glass from the LCD. Only the bezel/backpanel survived. Its still better than paying sombody $250 to do it for you. Unless you have insurance that is...

Managed to crack my Nexus 5 (red) LCD.
Any reliable supplier for a new one?
I've disassembled the broken one from the frame and just need the lcd+touch+bezel "glued" set.
(Well initially I just had broke the outter glass and the digitizer/LCD were working fine, until I tried to remove the broken Glass and managed to crack the LCD at 75% of the work done )
Contact lg

LG won't sell spare parts
@shri_chanakya
Issue on ebay is most claim to be original LCD+digitizer set, but aren't, ending up being of lower quality...
So I was looking for a reliable source.

Actually I took a good look at their product and it seems OEM and not Original.
Ended up ordering from here:
When it comes to parts I always get them off Amazon. I go by reviews and price comparison. If it's cheap it's fake, IMO. I've had a back and battery, both genuine and very happy with them, bought this way, but no screen, thank God. They have them

Cracked the screen. Need to replace with a screen+digitizer+frame. Would anyone here have a suggestion as to where to buy, with quality before cost. Can find many cheap units on ebay/Amazon, but want to fix it right the first time. Thanks

Thanks, ordered from them today.
+1 for etradesupply
would hesitate to trust other sellers on amazon & ebay due to possible cheap quality generic components like this replacement screen I got for my htc one x. it ended up being some sloppy glue job of the digitizer to the screen that I didn't notice until after I installed it.

I repair professionally and I have never had any issues with parts from ebay. Although I do make sure they have lots of positive reviews.
