Screen cracked, way to disable digitizer?

Bought a cable so we can use a mouse. Problem is the screen is still registering some information from the broken digitizer so as my wife says "It is acting crazy"
From what I hear ASUS is not to supportive of cracked screens so i have resigned myself that it will not get fixed, and fixing it myself is to expensive. ($140 for the replacement part).
So in order to make the best with what we got, is it possible to disable the digitiser interface? I assume I will need root. (not currently rooted, wife's device)
IMO, dont think thats possible?
but if the digitizer is still registering touches, then you gotta find where the pressure points are and try to lift them a bit higher? dont know if that might make sense to you or not lol.
and yeah, ASUS charges an arm and a leg for repairing a cracked screen($165+tax if you live in certain states+shipping charges back to you)

Crack open your device and disconnect the digitiser cable from the motherboard

My 2 year old son tripped and dropped my Nexus 7 yesterday now my screen is cracked..
Is it really $140 for the part?
I did a search on eBay and saw some screen replacement part for around $60

My screen cracked with a part of it not responding to the touch. which replacement sc

hello
my nexus 7's screen cracked after just 4 days of light use .. and now I have a triangular area in the top right of my screen that's not responding to the touch so that now I can't get to the right notification area unless rotate the screen or use a mouse . so I was thinking of replacing it.
since I live in Egypt and I had the tablet shipped to me from the US my only option is getting a screen shipped from ebay and installing it myself. so I was wondering what kind of screen should I get to get the whole touch screen working again.
i've been looking on ebay and was wondering if something like this might work?

I am not a very technical person so I am sure what the digitizer is.but I am guessing it's the part that broke to make the screen unresponsive.
so . should I get this one? if not what should I get?
I am looking for something cheap since the shipping cost is a lot.
thanks in advance
just upping the thread. I need the answer desperately

With screen + shipping + labour charge (to change screen).. Isn't it better if you get a new set and sell off the broken one on eBay? At least it's a new set and problem free.
a new replacement screen costs as much as a new Nexus 7. I cracked mine in January. The only way to use it is to connect a mouse which is pretty lame. Waiting for the newer Nexus 7.
since I live in Egypt. I can't really sell stuff on eBay. and my nexus 7 is the 3G version so I can't afford getting a new one.
I am really confused about the concept of a touch screen, a digitizer and an LCD. what is the differences between them and what do I really need?
if you can help me with eBay links I would much appreciate it.
thanks in advance
There is a guide here on how to change the screen (ok it seems I can't post the link because don't have enough posts. If you go to ifixit and search for nexus 7, there is a guide there)
The touchscreen part (digitizer) is the outer glass.
The LCD is bonded to the glass.
I've only ever seen the lcd and digitizer sold together. It is a lot easier to change them as one unit instead of trying to remove the broken digitizer from the lcd.
As people have said the price of the part outweighs the cost of fixing it, but if you really wanted to do it you should find all the information above.

I agree a second hand one though would be a lot more economical

The first link clearly reads that if only the external glass is broken, that is enough (and it costs only 10€ so you should consider that option first!)

The LCD is fused together with that outer glass. In the process of separating the LCD is most likely going to crack as well.

Not sure how much used Nexus 4s go for in your area, but $150 is getting close to just getting another one here..

[Q] Smashed screen

No idea how it happened but my nexus 4 screen is smashed the lcd still works but the touch screen is now non-responsive so cannot use the phone at all.
Anyway, looking for someone to give me some advice on my options?
Where is the best place online to pick up new front panel for the best price? Or does anyone know any good shops (in the UK) which will not rip me off for fixing it?
Thanks!

Is this the component I need to replace in order to get the phone working again? The screen works fine, its just non-responsive to touch.
Youd be better off replacing the whole LCD and digitizer while more expensive its a lot easier than replacing just the digitizer
