So, what actually needs to be replaced? My screen is fully functional, the screen is just cracked. I need to know so that I can order the replacement part that is needed.

I have had my wing for only 2 months and I bought it off of a friend.
When I had it I noticed two little scratches at the right hand-side bottom of the screen, but everything worked perfect......until now.
The problem I am having is that the touchscreen is not responding right att all. The main screen is crystal clear (it functions right) but the touchscreen interface is does not repond to touch or when it does, it activates another section of the screen different from where was pressed.
Do u guys think it's really the touchscreen layer on the main screen that is faulty or could it be something else triggering a faulty reponse?
Thanks in advance.
I had that same problem with an HP iPAQ hx2490. The only thing i can say to you is: You need to buy a new screen and replace the old one..
sry
You do not need to replace the whole screen, but the touch screen digitizer will need to be replaced. I had that problem on my prophet and had to have it replaced.
Thanks guys for ur quick reply... I'll take the step to replace the necessary part....Thank you.
Doing research on this I see where these cost at least $50 or more. Is it worth it? Can you not get a new one cheaper using the offers posted on this site? Just curious.

replacing the digitizer has way more steps than just changing the whole LCD screen. I had similar thing happen to my old MDA and I replaced both LCD and digitizer with new ones. Separating the Digitizer from LCD might damaged the actual screen itself. I suggest go to ebay and buy a combo screen+digitizer replacement part.
I got one for my MDA for 78 dollar shipped.comes with flat plastic tools, plastic screen protector, T6 screwdrivers, and wiping cloth. Not a bad deal.
The only reason I suggested just replacing the digitizer is cost... My I had to replace the digitizer it cost $60 instead of $100 for the entire screen...
Hi everybody,
My phone got a bit scratched and as the touch screen is not working anymore, I was seeking for a brand new phone cover as I'm going to disassemble the phone to replace the screen as well.
Alas, I wasn't able to find anything of that kind on eBay... You need to dig in the trillions of EXTERNAL covers that are utterly useless to me...
Do you guys know a trustworthy place to buy this internal phone cover ?
Thank you !
em..i had see nothing ever.
If by cover you mean the front "glass" which you touch, that's actually the digitizer (which is responsible for the touch interaction with the screen), the actual LCD screen is behind that. And if that isn't broken you just have to replace the digitizer not the LCD screen. You can order each separately on ebay, but be warned if you disassemble the phone yourself you'll find that they're glued together and if you're not careful praying them apart you might just break the screen.
Anyway you could just try separating the two before you order and see if you manage it and then just order the digitizer. The other option is to buy them both already assembled (although I think that costs a bit more) and just replace the whole thing.
I dropped my phone the other day and the screen cracked pretty bad...also the battery door no longer fits onto the body correctly, so I ordered the digitizer and the body(still waiting for the parts to arrive)...anyway, the new body, i noticed doesnt come with a new LED ribbon...should I have bought one, or is it easy to remove?...and how do I remove it?
Note:the LEDs that I have still work, but like i said, i just want to know how to get them off of the previous housing
Half of the screen works( Touch ) and the other half -- under the broken part doesnt work. Have already bought a screen ( with digitizer only ). Will this do or should I have bought " Touch Screen Lcd Display Assembly" ?
What I have -- here
Is the above enough or should I have bought this
Any help would be great.
Thanks.

If the display itself isn't messed up, then it's only the digitizer that's broken. However, replacing the digitizer is not easy to do. Watch some youtube videos, get the necessary stuff, and best of luck. You might end up damaging the LCD, in which case the screen assembly is what you'll need to fix your phone.

The display below the cracked screen(half cracked) is not responding. So, half of the screen is becoming useless. Planning on giving it to LG service center with the digitizer+screen -- will cost me around 7$ or so. So, I do have the proper replacement screen ( Check the links)?
Hi
I just dropped my phone and the screen cracked and isn't responding. I'm going away on Tuesday evening so am looking for the quickest/cheapest replacement. I'm in SW London UK. I have a second Nexus 4 that is water damaged so I'm not sure if the touch screen is working on that or not, but the glass is fine. I don't have any tools that might be needed either.
If anyone can recommend a somewhere that can replace it while I wait or send out a replacement for Tuesday I'd appreciate it. I'm not sure how this works and whether or not I would just need a new glass screen and or new sensor.
Any help is appreciated.
edit: is this everything I'd need? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LG-Google..._DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4d2c44fff0#shpCntId
I won't have time to order anything that I can use by tomorrow now.
The touch screen isn't working but I can see the lock screen and that looks fine. I just can't unlock it. I don't know if I just need a Replacement Touch Screen Digitizer Glass or a Full Lcd Touch Digitizer Screen. What is the difference? Is the latter for if the screen itself is broken and can't display anything?
Any help is appreciated.

Unless you have experience separating digitizer/lcd, it's way worth the extra price for the whole assembly. The two are glued together and it's very easy to damage the lcd during the separation.
