My screen damaged because my headphones broke in my headphone jack and I tried to pull it out..
So I damaged my screen the touch work but I can't see behind that. Only I can see it is white lines. I will upload photos later.
Please tell me if I need to replace screen or its only connector or something.
I don't want to buy a new phone cause I don't have money to spend on this

Most likely you need a new screen. Assuming the screen is damaged, and not the mother board.

If you have a UBreakIFix store nearby, take it to them. Or send it to Samsung for repair. If you do it yourself, you'll lose the water resistance. Plus, these are not easy repairs. You risk making it worse.
I can make it myself and I know if Samsung will pair it too I will lose the water resistance.
I already opened couple phones before.

If Samsung fixes it, you will NOT lose water resistance. It's no different then when they assembled the phone to begin with.

If you have repaired these Samsung phones before, then of course you know you will need to buy the whole LCD/frame assembly. And they cost $220-250 brand new. Samsung charges $230+tax to do the repair professionally and you keep your water resistance.

I don't live in USA so If I order screen replacement it will cost me 180$ .
If I will repair at Samsung it will cost me 280$
