Screen Damage

[xebec]

Hi, I just accidentally damaged my Z1 screen, I can see glass cracks inside. But display, functional everything is fine. only problem is the touch screen not working. I believe only damage is the touch screen. 

I wonder if I can just replace the touch screen digitizer or have to replace the diditizer with LCD display?

Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

Digitizer is integrated with display. You must replace both.

You can replace just the touch pannel but it will take some serious skills - This is nothing like other phones

See a video here and Google on how to remove the touch pannel - But for the touch pannel Google z1 digitizer replacement and to let you know the price of the touch pannel is about half the price of a complete full LCD and touch assembly complete
