I don't think this was made to use the LCD screen while videoing so there's no reason for the LCD screen to be on inside the waterproof housing. I believe the LCD screen is included in order to view what you had just videoed. I hope this helped.

There is no "other" waterproof housing - to my knowledge. (But...never say never.) The camera functions just fine without the monitor attached, as the manual points out. For what it's worth, the Go-Pro won't fit in it's waterproof housing with the (optional - extra cost) monitor installed either.

You will need to get a digitizer and LCD all in one! DO NOT get just the digitizer!

I made some modifications. I took two metal pieces in the shape of an L, covered them with the soft side of Velcro to prevent them from scratching the top of my LCD. Then placed the spiky parts of the Velcro underneath the speaker to attach the L shaped metals pieces to it. Finally I placed it on top of my LCD with the L shape pieces holding it from the front LCD and the attached stand holding it from the back of the LCD. I used Velcro so that I could remove it later if I wanted to.

Until now, it has not worked for me either. I recommend something, do not immerse in water. I did and I burned the screen

I couldnt remove the old connector (that part that hangs out at the bottom of the screen) without damaging the LCD part. At the end I had to order the all LCD panel (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009OZVUK6/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1) which work perfectly.

also make sure the viewfinder is attached flat next to the LCD screen. no space in between.

No, you would need a new LCD screen. Additionally, you might have a damaged main-board, this is something you have to test for.

Looks like your phone got wet. A new screen might work as long as you blow dry the inside of your phone.

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.

That is correct, however on mine I thought this was the case, but after replacing the glass I did note that the lcd had a bad spot that I was unable to notice before I swapped the glass out, so if it is smashed and you are not sure, the lcd may have a bad spot under the glass that you can not see. I thought this kit was great, cheap and fairly easy to replace, in my case I am fine with a bad pixel or two and am quite happy with the end result, If you are unsure if the lcd is perfect, you may end up with a bad pixel you didn't know you had, just so you know :) Good luck!

it's designed to go under water. However i bought one for my daughter for christmas 2012 probably has about 100 pictures through it and now the screen is black so she cant take pictures but she can still view them on the LCD screen. Amazon says it's out of warranty and i cant figure out any other way to exchange it

You will need to order a new screen. But be very careful taking it off as you can damage the LCD. You can get some YouTube video to help guide you!

The LCD comes with 3 'housing rear parts' - water proof, touch and sceleton for both Hero 3+ and Hero 3 (6 in total). No need to buy extra.

It's only the screen. You would need to get a separate kit. YouTube helps too!

The back door that came with my touch screen is bigger than the waterproof housing that came with my GoPro 3 - it doesn't fit on my housing. I can't snap it shut, the rubber gasket is in the way on the bottom where the hinge is located, so how are others getting this to work with their existing housing???

I have not tested it for its waterproof capabilities. The screen IS covered.
