JKR could have shown Harry repairing Hagrid's wand the very same way that he 
repaired his own- with a touch of the Elder Wand. Hagrid need not have known 
that Harry had done it, and Hargrid just would have thought he had gained 
some confidence now that Voldemort was dead, or that his death had changed 
something significant about the wizarding world itself. I would have loved 
to see more of Hagrid after the battle.
