It's actually very simple to fix - slide a finger nail under the plastic by the speaker and gently pry the digitizer up. Then, put it back. You dont need to remove it totally from the phone. It will flex back to its flat shape as soon as the glue releases. As soon as you stick it back down, the touch screen will work again.

This trick fixed my situation as well. In my case the phone had taken a fall against a sharp object that left a gouge in the digitizer. I lifted it off the frame, used the stylus to push the gouge out from the underside and reseated the digitizer. Works again!!!
Thanks!!!
