Hi, My LCD is cracked with a spider web on it. Will this work or is it different than the LCD? Is the touch screen digitizer different from LCD?

This touch screen is a separate piece than the LCD. This is a clear glass screen that is over top the lcd display.

The touch screen digitizer is different from the LCD screen so you have to be sure your LCD screen is in good condition before you replace the digitizer. I hope this will help you.

I don't think your LCD is Cracked... Touch Screen Digitizer is completely different than the LCD... The touch screen digitizer is the outer screen ... The LCD is underneath the digitizer... So I think it's the touch screen digitizer that is cracked not your LCD, so yes this would work if your outer screen is cracked

As long as the glass is cracked and not the LTD display your fine they are 2 separate components if you have any further issues just look up a YouTube video about your make and model. I have the same issue and I juts bought the screen to replace the glass.

Is your LCD really cracked, or is it just the glass OVER your LCD? This touch screen / digitizer replacement that I used is in effect only the glass over the top of the LCD (so yes, it is different than the LCD, and yes the touch screen digitizer is different than the LCD). My LCD was undamaged (I had spider web cracks throughout the glass on top but the LCD underneath was fine) and this glass/digitizer replacement was exactly what I needed.

Yes. Its just the glass screen part. You're touch still works. That means your digitizer is still intact.

The LCD is just the display, it is behind the digitizer portion that you actually touch. You can do a google search for A955 digitizer replacement to see more details.

This is the digitizer (touchscreen) and not the display. You will have to go for lcd screen replacement if your backlight is not working.

That would be your LCD. The little spot you saw on the screen was an ink spot. So you need to replace your lcd not your Digitizer unless the surface is shattered as well.

In most cases the lcd has to be replaced too ... I had to send my digitizer screen back and be refunded. What you'll probably need is the lcd with digitizer connected.

Yes it is called the digitizer. I recommend you order a bezel as well. I used a heat gun to get the old screen off and warped the bezel. The new screen fits in the new bezel perfectly. And the whole thing looks brand new. Save yoursef some time and get the bezel too.

This is a problem with the digitizer. I did this to my Kindle too. I could still use the touch screen but part of my screen was white.

yes. the digitizer is the glass screen on the front of the phone that fits into the phone's chassis (frame). it is just a flat piece of glass with the black trim and wire that you see in the picture. it is not the lcd screen which is behind/underneath the digitizer screen. if your screen cracked from an impact that didn't seem too severe, then your lcd screen is probably still ok. when removing and replacing a cracked digitizer screen, use very little heat to soften the glue around the edge of the screen, otherwise you'll damage/destroy the lcd screen underneath. i'd actually recommend using the tip of an clothes iron instead of a heat gun or blow dryer. good luck and take it slow. yes. the digitizer is the glass screen on the front of the phone that fits into the phone's chassis (frame). it is just a flat piece of glass with the black trim and wire that you see in the picture. it is not the lcd screen which is behind/underneath the digitizer screen. if your screen cracked from an impact that didn't seem too severe, then your lcd screen is probably still ok. when removing and replacing a cracked digitizer screen, use very little heat to soften the glue around the edge of the screen, otherwise you'll damage/destroy the lcd screen underneath. i'd actually recommend... » Read More yes. the digitizer is the glass screen on the front of the phone that fits into the phone's chassis (frame). it is just a flat piece of glass with the black trim and wire that you see in the picture. it is not the lcd screen which is behind/underneath the digitizer screen. if your screen cracked from an impact that didn't seem too severe, then your lcd screen is probably still ok. when removing and replacing a cracked digitizer screen, use very little heat to soften the glue around the edge of the screen, otherwise you'll damage/destroy the lcd screen underneath. i'd actually recommend using the tip of an clothes iron instead of a heat gun or blow dryer. good luck and take it slow. « Show Less

Hi, this is just the replacement touch panel or digitizer.If you also have broken the LCD, this replacement does not serve.change a digitizer tablet or a mobile phone, is complex.you can irreparably damage the device.If you do not have experience in these devices, we advise you to contact a professional in your city.I hope having been helpful.

hi, when I bought it this article and fix ok, but when installed in the phone the flex cable for the tactile touch screen connector was very very short, when I tried to connect it to the logic board it broke because it was to smaller than the original, so I think this is a defective part, I can't send it.

If the screen still works i.e you can click icons etc. The you do not need the digitizer and this will work. If the screen is black and will not turn on and/or perform any touch tasks you need the digitizer

No that is the lcd display its self. If you can still read the display and there is a crack on top you need the digitizer. The display is a separate component directly below the digitizer. When you replace it they come out together and then separate them to replace each piece. Here is a good resource for instructions on how to do the job www.ifixit.com.

Yes, if the screen doesn't respond to touch then your digitizer is also cracked.

The previous 2 posters did not answer your question. Scott P. is wrong. This is not a digitizer, this is an lcd (actually led) screen. This product as described and pictured appears to only be the lcd screen itself which is inside the ipad case. Assuming your screen is still visible and usable, but the very outside layer is cracked, this is not what you need. search instead for "front panel."

I do not have an educated answer to this, but my guess would be if you had repaired your broken screen with a scree kit, there is a chance you damaged the digitizer.

hello ,if only the digitizer (touch panel). you don't need anything else but if lcd panel is broken as well ,you may need to buy a replacement for it ..Good luck
