Kristin, I would say that yes, it is possible to replace it yourself. the parts are readily available at places [http://www.aliexpress.com/product-fm/431627992-LCD-Display-Screen-Digitizer-For-Samsung-S8530-Wave-II-2-wholesalers.html|like this.] I am sure you will find more based on your geographic location. You can download the manual [http://www.cpkb.org/wiki/Samsung_GT-S8530_Wave_II_service_manual|from here.] Hope this helps, good luck.
