"it is what is known as a ""pocket type"" device. which means screen removal is the first step of repair. If you feel comfortable taking that off, then the rest of the repair is relatively simple, if not tedious. I would practice on dead pocket type devices prior to attempting it, to get used to how the adhesive lifts.
if you make this attempt, you should be completely willing to replace the screen, in case of damage."
There is a great video of this repair and certainly yes, the back glass can be repaired. I don't know if I fix it has parts for this repair but I know that there are lots of replacement backs available on eBay and Amazon. Go check the video out and if you are comfortable to make this kind of replacement then go ahead.
"Anyone verify on how to do this exactly? Smashed mine today :/
Looking at the first vid on this thread it doesn't look like I'll encounter anything under the glass and that it's a purely cosmetic piece. But does anyone know for sure?"
