Hello, I managed to drop my polaroid i1035 and now when I switch it on, the back screen looks broken and cracked. The screen itself is intact and it still takes photos as normal. Can this be repaired economically?

Sounds like the LCD digitizer which either broke inside OR became disconnected. If the impact was not enough to sustain a screen crack, and you have warranty with either LG or through your carrier, you can get LG to fix it free if there is no physical damage, cracked screen, or water damage, with your carrier, it would be the easy, just tell them the screen isn't broken, the phone is intact but the screen is blank. That is a hardware failure... they are supposed to be able to withstand some drops so it really depends on how much physical damage there is.
A digitizer LCD is not expensive and there are ways to change them fairly simple since the screen isn't cracked, you go through most LG phones via the back, remove the camera, remove a black cover that holds the sim and or memory card, BE CAREFUL and please look at youtube to see a complete disassembly of your particular LG phone.
That usuallymeans an internal problem. So it needs to see a repair shop. Check for warrenty repair and replacement cost. Sometimes it is almost cheaper to just get a new camera.
Apparently, you can't. The owner's manual (http://mediacdn.shopatron.com/media/mfg/1848/spec_file/14070180.pdf) gives no indication that this camera has webcam capability.
You cannot repair the broken LCD screen; the white you are seeing is the backlight for it.
LCDs have extremely thin gold deposits along one edge that is contacted by a silicone rubber strip that has fine wires molded into it vertically and one edge is pressed against the LCD panel for contact.
It is a fussy arrangement when new and it sure doesn't get any better when dropped.
I wouldn't delay too long looking for parts or repair; Polaroid filed for bankruptcy last week although I doubt if the parent had anything to do with the manufacture of your camera; as with many companies with limited manufacturing means, the camera was surely built by others.
My camera fell out of my pocket book and busted the door. I glued it. that worked for about 6 months. I need the door for it and it will be as good as new.
