buy a replacement off E-Bay - around £11 and you'll also need a tri wing screwdriver also available on e-Bay.
1. Remove the 7 tri wing screws from the bottom cover (2 are located in the battery compartment)
2. Remove the 4 small screws that hold the motherboard in place (circled on the board)
3. remove the large ribbon connector on the right by flicking the little black bar, holding it in position, upwards.
4. Once it has been removed it will reveal a further 2 smaller ribbon connectors, remove these by slowly sliding out the little black 'pegs' either side or the ribbons, not all the way out just enough to release the pressure holding them in place.
5. Remove the little black wire (middle left)by flicking the little brass clip off the connector.
6. Remove the other large ribbon connector (top left) using the same method you used with the first.
7 remove the motherboard.
8. the bottom screen should now be able to be removed from it's recess (please not the position of the ribbons)
9. The touch screen is attached to the bottom screen and should be carefully prised off.
10. To fit the new screen exactly- the method I use is to remove any protective films the screen may have and without touching either of the screen faces (hold it by it's edges) place the touch screen in the recess ensuring the ribbon is in the correct position then place the bottom screen which has a sticky surface in the recess exactly how it should go and apply a little pressure to ensure the screens stick together.
11 refitting of the motherboard etc is exact reverse of removal
Top tip after putting bottom cover back on and before putting screws back in - test it works. If either of the screens don't work properly then you probably just need to make sure the ribbons are pushed in far enough.
Good luck
