- Replacement for LCD Screen & Touchscreen

Most modern touchscreen phones like the have 2 layers to the screen. The top layer is usually made from real Glass and provides the touch sensitive functions, this is known as the Touchscreen. The bottom layer is called the LCD and provides the image, this is known as the LCD screen. Together they are sometimes referred to as the LCD Touchscreen.

If a is dropped or squashed badly both of these layers can get broken. Likewise it's common for just one of these layers to break.

Sometimes it can be hard to know which layer is broken, but usually if the Touch screen is broken you will still see a perfect image, but there will be visible cracks on the glass and the handset will not respond to touch commands.

However if the LCD screen is broken then the mobile phone will still respond fine to touch, but the image may be blank or appear "inked".

How does it happen?

By far the most common reason for a cracked LCD and Touchscreen is by dropping the handset, other ways include;

  • Sitting on the
  • Hitting the against something hard
  • Pressing down on the screen with a hard object e.g. a pen
  • Throwing the

What's the root cause

Despite technological advances the materials use to make the Touchscreen and LCD are still fragile. This means that with a certain amount of pressure these screens will crack. From time to time the components can fail on their own, especially if the device is used heavily on a day to day basis. The touchscreens are now made from glass, some manufacturers such as Apple are using stronger formulations e.g. Gorilla glass or sapphire glass etc however any type of glass will break with enough force.

Common symptoms

  • Touchscreen may have visible cracks
  • Touchscreen may not respond to touch
  • LCD image will appear distorted and may appear like an ink stain effect.
  • Part of the image may be missing
