What You Need To Know On DIY iPad Screen Repair?


Have you broken the screen of your iPad and you are unsure of what to do? Whether the screen is completely shattered or cracked, there are several repair options that you can consider. One of these is taking the gadget to an iPad screen repair in Phoenix. Alternatively, you can choose to do the repair yourself. However, before you choose this, it is important to realize that it is not for the fainthearted and it is best left to people with a background in mobile repair. Let us look at what you will need to repair your iPad.

Parts

There is a big online market for iPad replacement parts. However, they all come with different qualities. There are instances when the vendor will give you an offer of selling a mini replacement glass for your iPad. No matter how good the deal may sound, you should avoid this option as the glass will not come with the connectors that are used to attach it to the logic board. You will be left with no option but to start harvesting those connectors from old glasses. You will then need to cut it carefully through the 8 solder points before soldering the connectors onto the replacement glass. In case you happen to be brave enough or you are good in soldering, this can end up saving you a lot of money. Otherwise, you will be left with no option but to choose the minimum replacement glass for the ipads that are more expensive.

Caution

If you choose to do the repair yourself, you will need to realize that this is not a race and you will need a lot of patience.

LCD

You will need to pry the LCD so that you can manage to get rid of the old glass from the logic board of the iPad and start installing the replacement glass. You should peel up the broken glass while allowing it to rest at an angle and start removing the 4 screws at the LCD’s corners. Be sure to peel the lack and sticky tape out of your way to reach the final screws.

After prying up the LCD and instead, you should place it flat on the broken glass without having to disconnect or even remove the sixteen screws that hold in place the back plate. It is important to be cautious as the ipad mini has a lot of magnetism on the right side and will attract the screw. Remove all the screws that are responsible for holding the back plate. Attach the replacement glass before reattaching the LCD. You will now be ready to seal the Ipad. If you have no prior background in phone repair, you should avoid following this option and seek the help of an iphone screen repair in Scottsdale.
