i did read that but i dont think its the digitizer that is damaged but the actual oled screen that has broken. is there any replacement oled screens i can buy

My apologies.

Try eBay item 180702036020

Should also be covered under house contents. Just check your excess first.

This exact same thing happened to me. I bought a replacement digitised screen only to discover it was the OLED underneath that was cracked, not the screen.

Not really sure what to do now, as it looked pretty tricky to remove the OLED from the rest of the phone :(

Please update this thread if you have any luck solving this.

Here's a video teardown to follow.
