do i need the IC connector? If i buy one without it, what happens? Only my touch screen is cracked

If you purchase without the IC connector you will need to solder the 50 pin connected which is extraordinarily difficult and can only be done under a microscope. If you are experienced with this then you will be okay; otherwise highly recommended to purchase with the IC connector and home button. The IC connector is for the touch screen interface which is part of the glass. If you get it with the IC connector and home butt5on you will not have to do any soldering and allow about 2 hours to change the screen if it is your first time.

If you have any source or you can replace your IC then you may order without IC and if you are not professional in replacement of IC through solder you should buy with IC.

It came with all the connectors and buttons. I only had smashed glass on mine too. You'll need to buy adhesive though.

I believe if you purchase one without it you will have to de-solder the original from the broken component and then solder it onto the replacement.

It depends. If the LCD display and touch digitizer work well and you're able to replace just the outer glass, this one will be OK; if your display can't work or the screen respond slow or unresponsive, this one isn't for you. This item does not contain the LCD or digitizer.

You need a new LCD and digitizer screen . It doesnt come seperately. Also, if you are planning to replace this yourself, just a word of advice: it's a bit tough to detach the screen,which is the very top layer. To see if yours is even damaged,run your fingers across the screen. If its smooth,its fine,but if you can actually feel the cracks from when it was dropped,then you will need a replacement screen too.I had a galaxy2 and the same thing happened. After going through HELL trying to repair it,I finally figured out that I'm losing $ and had to accept my loss.:( your phone is a tad different though. Best of luck!Check out youtube for how to fix it! You need a new LCD and digitizer screen . It doesnt come seperately.

After I had mine installed the very next day the screen went black, however the music was playing. I contacted the seller and they allowed me to return it after two weeks I asked for the status they return my system however the touch screen does not work!

If you need one and if it is not included, you should be able to salvage the one you have from the broken screen. This is something you should check out before re-assembly to save yourself some trouble.

I think the touch screen pad is a part of the glass...so you probably need to order the glass to fix the touch.

Yes this is the part you need if just the outer screen is cracked. If the LCD is cracked, it either won't turn on at all, or will be black in that area. This is a fairly simple repair, but like he other answer, you need the right tools and you should follow the guide on ifixit.com

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!

Nope, but I had worse problems. Touchscreen stop working after about 20 days use. It's supposed to be for rough use. I think it's a defective item. It hasn't even been droped... Will return it

Hi, Thanks for your message and showing interest in our products, If there is any problem with the outer glass (touch screen), this item will work, If the internal LCD has damaged, then you need to buy the whole internal LCD, Should you require any further information, please feel free to contact us. Kind regards.

I didn't have to activate anything for my touch screen. I'm wondering if something is wrong with yours. I would call Dell support and then maybe you need to send it back.

There's nothing to indicate Apple has anything to do with it. I'd recommend NOTgoing with this one, I'm pretty sure I ruined my ipad trying to solder it together. If you're really convinced to try the repair yourself, get the more expensive version that has the IC and home button already soldered in place. I don't think anyone but a professional could ever solder the connections needed on this one!

You need to change the LCD screen, the glass is only in case of errors on the touch sensor. Probably the problem is by a flex-cable problem, but its very difficult to find only the cable, but you can try.

If your screen is shattered or cracked, this is all you need unless some other component was damaged. My display was missing colors and it turned out the cable connector on the screen side was bad. If you're doing it yourself, you need special tools and replacement clips that usually break when you pry the case open.

The best way to get the right touch would be read the code wrote on the flat that comes from display to PCB, anyway I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2091233&page=7 that should be useful to you. they say your touch is G01 one, but I repeat, it may fit in connectors but don't work... try to obtain code from broken one. good luck! ciao!

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