Hi, I broke the front glass but the picture and touch itself was all working fine. I sent it to get fixed and when it come back, the colors are slightly dull. I’m assuming they used a cheap screen so I’m planning on fixing it myself with OEM products. My question is, would I need the LCD screen and the digitizer or just the LCD? From what I understand if the LCD is still fully working, so no ink or pixels, then it’s just the digitizer that is broke? But I can’t find anywhere that’s selling just the digitizer? Also do you think they changed my LCD as I don’t think it is a Retina display anymore.
The best way to go on this is buy a good quality screen assembly and change your cheap one. You can do a only digitizer replacement but this a much more complex repair to do. You will need the digitizer, special UV glue, a UV lamp for hardening the glue and a machine to remove the bubbles between the screen and digitizer On Youtube you can see the complexity and the tools nedeed>
