I shattered the glass screen of my samsung galaxy tablet. Still works fine. Is the glass screen separatw from the LCD or LED component, or the touch panel component? Have these parts been breached or just the glass? Someone please explain to me how these things fit together. Most important, if the glass has been shattered, does rhis mean toxic materials or vapors have been released like mercury? Should i even be using this tablet?

There should not be toxic materials there in nearly enough amounts to do any damage.

If it works, then clearly the glass top is separate from the LCD panel or it would not work. Likely just replacing the glass top will be all that is needed.
