A word of caution when attempting to replace broken phone or tablet digitizers.
When the digitizer is glued on the plastic frame, you could use a heat gun to degrade the glue for easier separation. BUT make sure you do not overheat it, cause the plastic will warp and twist and change shape and if you are lucky it will be a little work cutting out the bad plastic with an Xacto knife.
In my experience, heating the glass/plastic interface so much I couldn't touch it was too much.
The plastic was distorted and the lcd screen wouldn't fit so I had to remove some of the distorted material with a knife.
I was lucky cause it worked in the end, although the gap at that point now is noticeable, the tablet works.
