You'll most likely find the LCD and digitizer/screen are bonded and have to be replaced as one unit. I stand to be corrected though. Here's a link to a video showing you how to replace it... http://youtu.be/7IiqWDlefaI or here... http://youtu.be/FBysBoEGmXY
same story as with nexus 4 - zero gap display. In theory you can, but most probably you will destroy Your LCD during process.
thanks guys. that was helpful...

Hey all,
Had my HD2 for about 3 weeks now, while walking yesterday I tripped and fell, this caused the digitizer to break. I have contacted HTC on a quote for repair. Seeing as they quoted 200 euros, I can't afford to have it fixed. I do have the skills myself to fix the device, all I need is a replacement digitizer. After many hours searching I have yet to find one on sale.
The LCD panel underneath is fine it's just the digitizer that has been shattered. Stunningly it does still responds to input, but having small shards of glass in my fingers isn't ideal.
Can anybody here help?
Thanks in advance,

I have been able to find digitizers for other models from HTC on ebay.
But currently there isn't anybody offering a spare HD2 digitizer, Does anybody know how I may be able to get my hands on one?
I have vacuum packed my HD2 for now to stop corrosion. Hopefully I can find a replacement part soon.
Thanks for reading,

Hi! How did you manage to seperate the digitizer from the lcd without crushing the lcd?? I tried and now my lcd is useless I've found a new digitizer on ebay, but not the lcd screen, and I need both.. Do you know where I can find a new one??
Hello! The wife cracked her screen today and I can't tell if I need to replace just the digitizer or the LCD as well. The top half of the screen responds to touch still but the bottom doesn't... so I've attached a picture hoping you can help me!
Thanks in advance!

use a mouse, it will still work.
Just an update, I ordered an LCD/digitizer on ebay for $60. Took me about a half hour to replace. The hardest part was removing the screen from the bezel, but I just put it in the oven on a towel at 140° for about 10 minutes and it came off rather easily. Now it's just like new.

So my wife cracked her screen on her new note 3. It seems the digitizer is still working so just the glass cracked. Has anyone replaced one yet or know a video for it? I've done it fit an s3 but wasn't sure if it is the same process. Thanks !

Check youtube
Here's a pretty good tear-down video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpePTaq84IA
Hi, so unfortunately I dropped my N4 on concrete yesterday and the screen took a hit..worst of all, there is zero touch response.
So I was looking at eBay and I can order the new screen/display part for $55 and follow the DIY tutorial on YouTube...or there is also just the glass/digitizer on eBay for $20. Will the latter option work?
Otherwise I'll just order the entire unit.
Thanks!
You can but it will be hard to separate the two and then glue it together, I would just buy the display.

Yeah I found out and don't want to do it at all. Also, even if I order the LCD I still have to take off the glass and old display...I'll order it though.
Thanks for your help.

I agree with you. I had the same thing happened to me, and tried just removing the glass, and cracked the LCD.

Doesn't quite show if the Modem is a separate chip or onboard the 7420.
my 2 cents
Was just about to post this. Thanks!
The battery seems cumbersome to replace. I hate heating things up and removing the glass in fear of cracking it. However, once past that, it looks pretty standard. I'm glad there's no more glue underneath that all.
Being careful, it can be "easy" to change the battery
There is a YouTube video about The Galaxy S6 teardown

I wish it was a little easier to repair, ala the Nexus 4, which was rather simple to take apart. But really, anyone who has taken apart phones before shouldn't find it too difficult to repair this device. But it looks like most everything is soldered to the motherboard. What will happen if the usb port breaks?
Hi. I just broke my S6 display, just the protection glass ,the touch is working flawlessly even where the display is cracked. I was wondering what do you suggest, to change only the glass (Oca glue /gel ?) or to replace the whole display meaning glass and touch? Please help guys. Later today I will post a picture with the display. Thank you.

I only had mine for 5 days, dropped it, and cracked the glass.... a week later, dropped it again, and cracked it even more! I can't believe how slippery the G6 is. Anyhow, I ordered a good case the same day I got the phone, but it's stuck at friggen customs for over a month now... Soon as I get it, going to get er fixed. It's $210 locally rite now to get the glass replaced, or $150 for an insurance replacement. Regardless, going to stick with the messed up screen til I get the case, still works great.
Hi. I found to replace the glass and touch together with 150 . Replacing just the screen I think it's cheaper but I didn't hear good things about this procedure (high possibility to crack the touch or the gluing of the touch and glass it's very hard to get like new). Where are you from? http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00...y+s6+parts&dpPl=1&dpID=51nFR7qIK9L&ref=plSrch
I bought a Samsung Galaxy S6. The other day, I happened to break the front glass. The LCD is still fine and the phone works, but the glass is all cracked and a little sharp. So I got a Samsung Galaxy S6 replacement and then followed the video guide to fix it. Now the phone just like a brand new phone.
