Where do I get the LCD for the first gen iPhone?

I recently brought another iPhone for my family members, but unfortunally, the LCD is broken?

before I go buy the LCD, is that the problem?

The owners told me it's been water damaged, how would I fix this?

I'm picking it up in the new year, I got it on ebay for cheap, but I'm not sure if it's just water damanged, or the screen is the problem, (looks just the screen) is the problem.

Nope, since it's been water damaged, it is most likely non repairable.

But he does not know, so theirs always a chance at giving it a go - You can't just give up.

Water logged iPhones are not repairable. The only stories people have is that they immediatly place their iphones in rice or silica gel as a drying agent to dry the phone. Since the phone is turned on, this is not possible anymore.

Well, we will see when I get this phone, does the first gen iPhone have have a way to check for water damage?
