With a Blackberry Storm 9530, you should be able to benefit from a high quality and responsive LCD/touchscreen. This guide will help utilize your handy skills and aid in removing and/or replacing your device's LCD/Touchscreen.

A functional touchscreen is meant to allow you to control interactions on your device with the touch of a finger. Due to the sensitivity of a touchscreen, though, it may shatter or crack, and this situation may seem like the end of your device’s lifespan. However, underneath the touchscreen is the LCD screen, and this component (along with the touchscreen) can be replaced through the disassembly of your device.

Instead of living with a valuable item that has a shattered touchscreen, you should be able to regain the full potential of your device.

Make sure not to touch any shattered glass/shards of glass with your bare hands.

Use this guide to replace a broken touchscreen or LCD in your Blackberry Storm 9530 phone.
