i found this glass replacment
how can i raplce my glass (the digitaizer works so is lcd)
the only thing i found about the galaxy nexus is that you have to replace the glass, the digitaiser and the lcd together (180 dollars)
so is it just a scam?

I wouldnt buy that. Its coming from China, it isnt an official spare part, probably wont even fit. The phone probably wasnt even designed to have only the outer screen replaced without the digitizer and LCD being replaced too.
Check out this post on the display and glass replacement. Didnt try the glass replacement, but could give you some insight.

Hello,
I dropped my One X the other day and the screen cracked in several places. I ordered an LCD and a new glass for the phone, but all the tutorials seem to stop once the phone gets taken apart. When I get the LCD, do I just put adhesive on the glass, stick it on, and put it back together? Or is there a different procedure I need to do?
Thanks.
LCD and glass should be bonded together, i.e., one unit, already.
When I ordered the LCD off Amazon, it didnt say that it came with glass. It would be great if it did though. If not, I still have an extra glass front. Would small drops of Gorilla Glue be strong enough to keep it adhered to the LCD panel?
so i was debating on getting a case or not so i decided to see how much a replacement digitizer was because with my evo lte i could get one for $16 so i decided screw a case and ill just replace when needed. but when i looked it up for this phone it looks like you can only buy a digitizer with a lcd and its like $240-$320. so is it even possible to get a digitzer by itself? and if so how hard would it be to replace?
Find a for parts galaxy s3 on ebay.. Would likely be cheaper. But idk exact price or the item your talking about.. Blanking out on what you mean by digitizer
The digitizer is the front glass that detects when and where in the screen your touching. In short, the glass you touch whenever you use your phone. And the lcd is the panel that makes all the colors that you see (this is the stupidly expensive part of the screen)

Tuscani1821 sells the full lcd/digitizer for around $130 for the s3. Replacing just the digitizer is next to impossible. Even Samsung doesn't replace them they swap the entire assembly. You can replace the glass lens with alot of patience and about 2hours of repeatedly heating the glass while carefully separating the adhesive from the digitizer. The digitizer itself is fused to the LCD and the glass is fused to the digitizer. Removing the digitizer from the LCD will, without a doubt, destroy the LCD. Removing the glass lens if not done properly will destory the digitizer. If the touch works and lcd works the digitizer isn't damaged just the glass lens is. If the digitizer even has one crack the LCD goes out with it.

I like to break stuff!
Hi,
I've recently just smashed the front screen of my htc one x, the lcd is fine its just the outer glass (digitizer?) touch screen still works its just cracked. badly.
I noticed that on ebay they sell just the glass part for £10 and they sell the lcd and glass for £40 I obviously want to go for the cheapest option.
How do i got about removing and replacing the cracked glass with the £10 glass?
Thank you
I really hope there is a solution!
You don't you will destroy the LCD when you take the touch pannel off. My advice pay for it be repaired it will save you money on the long term

Recently met with an accident and my phone's touchscreen has broke(shattered).... but everything seems to be working fine! Only the glass has shattered!
So thought the digitizer has broke and let me change the digitizer by myself and was surfing to buy that digitizer! then only got to know that they dont sell digitizers alone for LG(but HTC does!).
Was seeing aliexpress and got to know about this (Touch Screen Outer Glass) I've enclosed the screenshot of this product.
So can you please suggest whether i should replace digitizer or this outer glass?!
I thought in many cases the touchscreen digitizer is bonded to the LCD.
It might be difficult to remove the touchscreen from the LCD to install your new touchscreen.
