I see them all over the ebay world, and my glass is cracked but my digitizer is fine. My ocd is about to kick in and I want to know how to relpace it and what is this part? Thanks!
As far as I'm aware the LCD screen and glass are fused together so you will have to replace the entire screen.

You are right.

I accidentally dropped my phone and the glass got shattered, everything seems to work fine.
I managed to buy a front glass lens from globaldirectparts.com but i couldn't find any guide on how to replace it.
Can someone direct me to a full guide?
Thanks in advance.
Ifixit will have a guide

I thought the glass on SAMOLED was fused to the display. Is that not correct?
EDIT: From the iFixIt Teardown:
If you shatter the front panel glass, the SAMOLED has to be replaced as well -- they're fused together.

The exception would be if you have the i9023 (with Super Clear LCD)
Dropped my Nexus and shattered the glass... All works still. Found the outer glass on ebay for like $10. Is it possible to replace it without having to replace the digitizer? Is it glued together like some other phones, or can I take it apart and put in new glass without issue?

According to ifixit the outer glass is glued to the digitizer:

Anyone have experience replacing just the outer glass? I read its possible on other phones, and they do sell the outer glass, so I have to assume there is a way... I can't find digitizer for sale anywhere..
If the digitizer is glued to the screen it's likely you're gonna need that entire assembly replaced which isn't gonna be as cheap as a $10 slate of gorilla glass.

I somehow cracked my phone's rear camera lens when it dropped out of my pants ^^" The camera still works in perfect condition though? Still, does anyone have an idea how and for how much can I get it replaced? It's only been 15 days since I got my phone ;-;
what case are you using?
The replacement is easy. Just remove the cracked glass and apply the new one. You can use the Samsung Galaxy S7 camera glass also. It's identical and cheaper.

Ohhh thank you for that! Is it wise to replace my saphire lens with a glass one? I think it's only a surface crack. What happens if the whole thing breaks, cuz I want to wait until/if it breaks completely to replace it with the glass one >.<

Can you share a picture of the cracked lens?
What's the difference between the Sapphire and glass ?
Sapphire is way stronger, at least concerning scratches
Sapphire is more resistant to scratches than regular tempered glass.
Hard particulates in everyday dirt are less likely to scratch sapphire than it is glass.
Unfortunately as a trade off, sapphire is more brittle and susceptible to cracking.
It takes less force by pressing on sapphire to crack it compared to glass.
Think of a diamond; while it is harder than most materials, it is relatively easy to shatter by applying a sharp blow it it.
Hi, yesterday my phone fell to the ground from about 30 cm. It was with his original flip cover and glass screen protector. But unfortunately it took floor with front glass side by right edge down and went in crash.
Now can I change ony the glass? ( as samsung phone)
Or I must change all the display ?
Because the glass is broken a little and only in the lower part to the right of the central key. I put a new protection glass and almost I do not see it but if it does not cost too much I would like to change it.
Is there anyone who changes only glass? can you show me where?

Hello mate, did you fix it?
I broke on my P20 pro front glass, by the way touch screen is working.
I ‘ve seen on Youtube that possible to replace glass only, but I not sure about digitizer, should I replace together or not.
Maybe someone has experience with it?
Hi, my front glass broke. Can I repair or change it without change the display ?

Based on this I would imagine it's a full screen replacement as the acoustic vibration doo-hickey is attached as well...
Mine too was broken, it s too easy to brok
