I have an iPhone and the only problem with it is the screen is cracked. The touch response is perfect and so is everything else. The only question I have to ask is it's possible to replace it right? Oh and what's a digitizer? I just want to replace the glass screen for the iPhone, but I hear the the digitizer is fused with the screen. Can someone explain to me what that is? And if it's possible, how would I go about replacing my glass screen?

Thank You.

"""""Be careful there are people out there selling either the lcd or the touch panel by them selves and not together as a complete screen. The way the iphone is designed the glass touch panel can not be replaced separately from the lcd. The glass touch panel and lcd are fused together at the factory and can not be separated. The only way to repair a damaged iphone screen is to replace the complete screen."""""""" <= this is part of their website iPhone Complete Replacement Screen (Gen 1) - Includes LCD & Digitizer: PDAparts is the Palm Treo, HP iPAQ, Blackberry, iPhone, PDA Parts and Repair Specialist


I bought it myself because i got my glass display cracked too. And do not go to ifixit.com ! They charge more, their video how-to is not complete. Believe me, i was there already. And dont forget the tools u need to repair your iphone. If i were you, i would order at least 5 of those plastic case openers......You will break couple of them before u learned how to open the iphone case. good luck!!
