Don't know about yours specific

But they wanted 90 quid to repair my screen ( sony ray ) . So I ordered replacement screen online, took some hrs stripping it down only to realize it just wasn't actually possible on mine - or at least I didn't have the skill. Fortunately i did manage to get it back together -and it still worked.
So, sent the screen back and saw you could buy entire chassis with screen for same money (15) .This time it was a doddle, just swopped the insides over - and it's all working great like a new phone.

You'll need a steady hand, and some spare time plus you tube video to guide you through

Just repaired a galaxy S3 glass, looks identical procedure for the S2. I bought the screen for less than £10. I watched a couple of youtube videos then did the job myself. It was quite easy, take your time have a few sharp scalpel blades to start lifting the screen once you have melted the glue. I used brake cleaner to clean glue residue off display. Job looked perfect.
