The glass on the front of my Nexus 4 is cracked; still responds to touch &amp; LCD is good. Plan on having a professional do it, will this be all I need?

A professional could replace your glass with just these parts. However, separating the glass from the LCD is a huge pain (they're glued together), and labor costs may be high. Buying the LCD display + touch screen digitizer assembly, while about 40 dollars extra up front, may gain you a net savings via reduced labor cost. I'd try to get quotes for both to be sure. Hope this helps.

If the it's only the screen that is cracked, then all you need is the front glass which can be installed using a tutorial guide on YouTube. If the screen won't display some images, then you will have to buy a new LCD as well.

If it's just the outer screen that's cracked, you will just need to purchase the digitizer. I hope this helps.

Hi Maureen, couple questions real quick! You're trying to replace just the digitizer glass right? Have you already removed the assumed broken glass from the display assembly?

Glass digitizer-- will fix as long as you didn't break the LCD under the glass. I also used a heat gun.

Stacey, I am by no means a person who works on electronics or considered computer savey. The new screen has only been on the tablet a short time. So far so good. If it's still working this time next year I will be really proud of myself. Watch YouTube videos on this repair, take your time and it should go well.

Yes, my screen cracked also but I did not repair it. Just replaced it with another tablet...Sorry, good luck..

Negative. All of the parts, earpiece, front camera, touch sensor, etc, are all original equipment from your phone. They need to be delicately disconnected from the old screen and reattached to the new one. The New screen comes with tools and directions to do all of this and will take about 2 hours (for me) to complete. I had no problems and only consider myself a medium skilled techie. If you can follow directions, have a decent lights, a delicate touch and some patience, everything should work out fine.

Yes, takes time, a heat gun, and patience. Start with the less broken part work it up and dig the tiny out after the screen is off. Be careful don't break the digitizer.

We have the same problem. I was going to try to find someone to salvage the tablet due to it quitting not long after we got it. But finding someone to replace the screen has been the biggest problem. Even custom shops have not been able to do anything with it. If you find anyone, please share. I wish you luck in your endeavor.

Yes it might be for some. You have to have a lot of patience. There is some very good vids you'll find on YouTube do your research and see if it's worth the cost to repair yourself If you think you might break it vs. Going to a repair shop. If you do go to a shop should cost you more than 20 bucks for the labor. Minus the replacement screen.

Yes. But it takes time dismantling, I have never done this before. Put it back together and didn't fit probably. Took phone to local repair shop to see if they could do anything. Guy says I might a gotten a wrong LCD screen. You could barely see it didn't line up right. I broke down and just bought another Nexus 5 from play store

Hey I had the same problem and bought just the screen and tried to do a screen replacement that didn't work out because of the digitizer was cracked under neath. This product worked really good and if you go on youtube and type in htc one s screen replacement and it will show you how to do it yourself.

Hey there, I just had this same thing happen to my camera!!! The camera was not dropped or anything and it seemed to just appear out of the blue. One minute I am taking pictures and it looked fine, then I look down and the screen internally is cracked, the outside of the LCD does not have a scatch on it. I am about to send it off to Olympus to get a warrentyl repair, but could use any other instances of this happening as evidence that this is not my fault. Please let me know what you were able to get done. Thanks, Nick

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!
