Iphone screen smashed, touch still works but white spots

I accidentally smashed my iPhone in between my car door. It is fine, the screen is fine and everything still works, but there is this huge white spot in the corner of the screen where I smashed it. The touch screen under the white spot still works perfectly too. It just bothers me, and I was wondering if there was a way I could replace the screen or fix it somehow(because I am using it with T-Mobile and Apple/AT&T won't touch it). I have pictures of it, if that would help I can e-mail those to you. I just looked forever online and couldn't find anyone with this problem. Thank you so much!!

If hard resetting and restoring it doesn't work you have a broken LCD screen. There is an iphone repair guide website that shows you how to replace the screen yourself.

I have an iphone 3G and it was thrown to the ground where the screen has smashed. The scrren is white but the phone rings
that means that the phone itself aka internal hardware is working just fine(hopefully since we cant actually know right now) but you NEED to replace that screen. Once you do everything else should be back to normal, or we will be able to tell what is working and what else is broken.

That's no problem. You must've accidentally zoomed it.
All you need to do to make them smaller is to double-tap on the screen of your device with your 3 fingers and your problem will be fixed.

My iphone has an enlarged screen and I can't correct How can I fix it?
You probably zoomed-in the entire screen accidentally. To zoom-out, this is what you should do: double-tap anywhere on the screen using 3 of your fingers (simultaneously).

And in case you want to zoom-in again, just do the same thing.

Chances are that like most touchpad screens it has to be "calibrated" similar to calibrating Palm Pilot screens.

Finding this procedure may be a problem, however it is likely in one of the setup screens. You MAY have to re-initialize the whole thing.
