Why could Hagrid use his broken wand and Harry couldn't?

Hagrid's wand is also broken in half (as Harry's was after Goderic's Hollow in DH), But Hagrid still uses the pieces.
The umbrella has the same strong affect as any other wand. but when Harry tries to use his broken wand no spell he tried completely worked or wasn't extremely feeble.
Did Harry have to enclose his in an umbrella (or somehting like it) to have the same effects?

That's a good question. I actually wonder the same thing. First I thought that Hagrid wasn't the best at spellcasting because of his broken wand, but then it became apparent that he just isn't very good with the motions or the annunciation of the spell.
And then, of course, in HBP he does the aquamenti charm to put the fire out on his house and it worked quite well through the umbrella.
Hmm, I really don't know why though....

I think that Hagrid would have had Dumbledore fix his wand. No offense to Hermione, but she's not even close to Dumbledore's level. DD could have done way better repairs than Hermione.
Besides, Hagrid might have got Ollivander to make the umbrella for him.

As each and every piece of his home swirled around him and into the sky, his body was covered with cuts and gashes. As the last shard hit him and flew up, he collapsed, wondering how long it would be until he bled to death. Crying, he fell asleep; hoping that when he woke up, the house would be there...

Olivander doesn't know for sure that Hagrid uses the pieces because in SS/PS he asked Hagrid and he lied. but possibly Dumbledore made the umbrella for Hagrid

True,

I really do think that Dumbledore would have made the umbrella as a gesture of kindness after wrongfully breaking his wand.

yeah, and he would've been able to do that too. but he could've just gotten a wand maker to make him a new one. especially after he was proven innocent.

yeah, possibly DD mended it already and gave him the unbrella to keep it in so no one would know
