Cracked black screen with lit up navigation buttons. Is there any hope

I have a S5 with a cracked screen that only comes up completely black but the navigation buttons still light up and I can feel the vibration. Is there any hope of fixing without repairing the cracked screen? Any ideas?

The screen is showing no display because it is damaged.

The OLED screens commonly go bad like this after a drop so there's no way around a screen replacement to fix that.
