Screen or LCD display replacement?

My s5 screen is broken and I was looking at replacing it but was unsure if I is just the glass or the whole LCD display. How would I know which one to replace?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Are you able to use the phone and see what is displayed on the LCD with mere cracks along the screen?

Or is the LCD completely black and/or discolored?

If it is just a crack and you can still see what is on the screen, then it's most likely just an LCD front glass repair. But if the LCD is black/discolored display then you would have to look into replacing the LCD display.

Glass only is super super difficult even for pros

If your doing yourself then a lcd replacement would be easier but more expensive
