I've hadmy HTC one for nearly a year and I love the phone, I was on my computer and some how it fell on the floor face down.
Picked it up and I found a lard single crack from top to bottom.
I've ordered digitizer glass only as the LCD is good and I like the color of the LCD, my Mrs has a never version and the screen is crap. Can anyone guide me to a repair guide on how to remove the glass from the LCD please. I've seen disassembles for body only not LCD and glass.
Thanks all

I recently cracked my LCD and ive decided to hold of on buying a new one as i still have about 80% visibility left and i can deal with that but i am wondering if the digitizer is under any sort of plastic or is it whats being tapped with no protection because i left the factory screen film on and have been waiting for my screen protector to arrive and if the digitizer isnt protected then ill go ahead and take of the film and not worry about scratching it because it will be replaced when i get the replacement lcd/digitizer.
.dont pay attention to this replly, just focus on the post (iaccidentally replied and this is the edit)
here is my story: i got a cracked screen and damage housing g1 everything else works fine, so i've decided to purchase an new housing from ebay, when i dissect the g1 i've realize the only crack is the front cover, the lcd and the digitizer is perfectly fine, so i have been looking around for that outer screen part, but unfortunately all that i've fine is screens that already have the digitizer attached to the screen which cost around $50. so here is the QUESTION: anyone know where i can fine that screen piece? O btw the new housing does not come with that piece which is very gay.
So the lcd screen on my Dinc has a huge crack in it but the front glass one is alright. Anyone know where i can get a cheap lcd screen or if anyone has one?

Hello guys!
It's my first post on this forum so excuse me for all mistakes that I have made
Some time ago i dropped my LG G Flex from about 0,5m. The screen have "spider webs" so it makes annoying to use it. Luckily the screen and touch layer managed to survive .
I searched web for replacements but i didn't find the glass. I only managed to find a glass with whole display. The cost of whole thing was about 50$-100$. The price of that part was too expensive to make it happen (i bought phone for about 140$).
Soo i have came up with bright idea. I was gonna remove the screen glass like this girl on video (Search YouTube for "HOW TO REPLACE A SMARTPHONE SCREEN!" uploaded by "everythingdiy").
Thing was very easy because LG don't have any physical buttons on front and the whole "frame thing" was attached to bottom layers (With samsung phones the "frame thing" is attached to glass").
After removing broken glass i cleaned everything up with just a tissue.
Next step was the easiest one. I bought online a tempered glass protector and applied it on my screen.
Here you go, everything is working very well !
I have payed for replacing my screen glass about 5$ (+ work with removing old glass)
I think i have helped someone with similar problems.
REMEMBER !! To preform this your display and touch must work !!! You are doing it on your own and i don't take any responsibility if you damage your phone !!!
what tempered glass protector did you buy? please can you send a link
also, when you remove the glass, was it attach to the lcd with glue?

I bought the cheapest one Any tempered glass will do the job.
The glass was attached to the LCD with glue. Make sure to warm up the screen with hair dryer or heat gun
You can try removing that glass at any point. Just google "removing phone screen glass" or something like that.
Remember it's not that easy as it sounds, the display is very fragile.

Outer glass is for exactly that, replacing just the surface glass. You have to separate the outer glass and the original, fully-touch-functional, LCD digitizer using a thin wire and 80'C heating source (hotter than that will ruin your LCD) to melt the LOCA (clear optical) glue which cures with UV light source (or out in the sun). It's difficult and time consuming (3-4 hrs labor). The glass is only $10 or so but other equipment is needed as mentioned. There are kits for $25 which includes wire, double-side tape (not as good as LOCA glue due to dust getting in between glass and LCD and not as durable when phone gets hot--glass may raise and separate from LCD, glass may crack easiers).
Full LCD is easier and more durable as you replace the whole thing. Down side is cost ($70-$150 depending on phone model). It only takes about 15' to change out the LCD. It's usually same or even cheaper to buy a used phone than replacing a full LCD. For example you can get a used LG G2 for $50-75 on Ebay and Swappa in good condition.
Remembers replacement parts are NEVER as durable as original screen as they're generic Chinese stuff. Don't think you're getting Gorilla glass for the outer glass. One drop and your replacement screen glass will break. The full LCD replacement usually fail within 1 year due to generic digitizer or recycled digitizer.
If I were you, I'd just buy a good condition used LG G2 and be done with it.
I just replaced mine G2 D802 (from 2013) Lcd, you need to replace the whole thing (screen+lcd)I think, you can buy the Lcd from the Internet. I bought the lcd about $50 and got the shop to replace it for $6. Now my G2 is like new.
