has anyone successfully changed the front glass after it cracked? If so, who did you purchase it from?
I was told you have to replace the whole thing if you just change the glass it wont register your touch anymore I cracked mine it will cost me $450 to replace

Where to get spare parts?
The top of the screen, the plastic layer. Where the HTC logo is printed on. That thing is broken. So the touch functonality isnt working anymore. And it is scratched. Where can i buy such a thing?
Ebay has good deals. What you need is called the digitizer. Such as: touch pro digitizer on ebay. I just had the same problem as you. I dropped my phone and something scratched the very outside layer of the screen. A small patch started peeling away and the touch screen stopped working.
Some sellers on ebay offer both the digitizer and LCD as a package, but unless the display is also not working, you can save money and buy just the digitizer.
I ordered mine on http://shop.brando.com/
do i have to replace the whole lcd. i see digitizers on ebay for like 20 bucks...
I have been told that they must be replaced together
Yes, the screen, glass, and digitizer and all that are fused together. As far as I know you can't replace one without replacing it all, bringing your price closer to $180. I've got a broken screen now as well. Wish the glass was an easy (or rather cheap) replacement.
Edit: I see the glass only on eBay, but I'll give you warning that the SAMOLED screen is glued to the glass pretty well. Unless you REALLY know what you're doing, there's a 95% chance you'll break the LCD trying to separate it from the glass, then you'll definitely have to spend the $180 or so for the whole thing.
ok so I dropped my one s and my screen quit working (its all black). It still registers when I touch it though (I can still unlock it and everything) does this mean I just need to replace the screen? Or could there be more to it than that? If you need more information just ask. Thanks in advance for your help!!!
EDIT: There's a crack in the screen from the drop. But it's so thin it's almost impossible to see.

I had the same issue. the easiest option is to buy the LCD/digitizer with the Glass, but the cost is around $120.
the cheaper option is for you to separate the glass for the LCD/digitizer yourself and just order the glass yourself $5
that's what I went and did and it didn't go so well for me, broke the LCD while taking the shattered glass off.

I have purchased this, as the LCD and touch are working fine. In your opinion, would a mobile technician be able to handle the procedure to separate the glass lens and replace it ?
I'm sure a technician can, but taking off the glued glass is a lengthy process.. took me 2 hours.
Hi
My nexus 5 has fallen down. Touch and everything is working graet. But the front glass is broken. Is it possible to replace just the front glass or must i replace the whole lcd+Touchscreen??
The whole lcd costs 80 €. Its too much for this old phone.
Thanks in advance
You need special equipment to separate the glass from lcd and there is a large chance that you break the lcd. LCD with Glass and plastic frame cost around 40USD on aliexpress or ebay
Yup, aliexpress.com is the way to go for a low price but the screen isn't quite as nice as an original LG screen. I've replaced the LCD/frame/digitizer on two N5s and it was very easy.
Hi,
Can anyone tell me where I can buy a new complete digitizer screen? Not just the glass, as I have bought the glass not realizing I need the digitizer itself as they can't be split without damaging the digitizer itself as its glued to glass screen and they can't separated.
Thanks
Can anyone tell me how to even begin opening this up? whatguide do you follow for that please
