Hi so like half of my Idol 3 screen cracked and now it’s not working so anytime I want to y’know use that half, I have to use the reversible feature and turn it over and then turn it back to continue what I’m doing. Idk if you get me. So I want to fix my screen but I’m seeing lcd, screen digitizer and some without lcd and I’m confused so I just want to ask, how is an Alcatel idol 3 screen actually like. Does it have LCD or screen digitizer or whatever so I’d know the right screen to get. Please answer

Hello Funmi :) The LCD is what displays images, the digitizer is the touch screen. Sometimes they are sold separately for instances where just the glass is cracked or the touch stopped functioning. In your case, it sounds like the LCD is what needs to be replaced. Glass only repairs (digitizer only) are extremely difficult. You’ll want to go with the LCD/Digitizer assembly combo. Hope this helps and happy repairs to you :D P.S. In case you need help, a tutorial for this repair can be found here
