I watch a lot of "how to" stuff as I do computer repair professionally. I want you to know that this is THE FINEST repair video I have ever seen. Clear concise language, excellent quality video with perfect angles and lighting, all topics covered very well. Thank you so much! Great Job!

@Laptopscreen 4 года назад

Thank you Dave! We've come a long way since 2011: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-R2uz3yEyqWc.html

Wish I saw this video before I started. Totally jacked up my wifi antenna.

@judgednot9478 3 года назад

same here lmfao

@mehdiksikes241 10 лет назад

Very useful. Just wondering if I missed the part where you put back the wifi antenna?

@markfiftyeight8185 9 лет назад

That would have to be the most informative tutorial thet I have seen ever on the web. Well done mate and thank you.

@atarawali 8 лет назад

Thank you! You saved me $142 from my local PC repair!!!! Very easy to follow steps! So proud of myself!!! Thanks!

@kmurdock2195 11 лет назад

Thanks so much for the video. I was REALLY hesitant to fix my Ipad myself because I have zero skills in the technical department, but your video is VERY easy to understand and I didn't have any problems. Thanks again.

@InfinityStudi0z 12 лет назад

I found this to be an excellent video on the digitiser repair. It was complete and all covered in a timely manner where other video's go on and on and on. Thank you for this and I will add any additional comments necessary after I do the job myself.

@yctruth 9 лет назад

Good video, but I never saw you replace the mid frame molding. The old one came off when you took the old digitizer off do you not replace that?

@coslawman 11 лет назад

I just used this to replace my Ipad screen, the only advice I have that isnt mentioned is to make sure your battery is dead on your ipad so you dont short out anything when disconnecting any cables. Some people have issues where they short out something and the back light on their ipad stops working. Thanks!

@maztergee 12 лет назад

Thanks for taking the time to carry out this repair in such detail. Awesome.

@babeonboard6 9 лет назад

Awesome video, I watched it while fixing my own broken screen on my ipad 2 and now its all new and works! Thank you

@alfitzsimons 8 лет назад

Just saved myself €70 by buying the replacement screen and DIY kit. My iPad 2 is working perfectly now with the help of this video - thank you!!!!! It's the third time it's been replaced and I paid €110 for each repair which was madness 😡😡 thanks again 👏🏻👏🏻

@AngelaRMFerrer 3 года назад

Your english is impeccable.

@salamx1976 8 лет назад

Thanks for the great video, it helped me tremendously while changing my screen. saved me a lot of money, I appreciate it.

@therestorationofdrwho1865 9 лет назад

you have to push the digitiser cable down while putting the screen down so it doesn't stop the screen going on, and make sure it goes down where it comes from, don't just squash it down, that'l damage it.

@shaniquawade3203 6 лет назад

Thanks alot , I literally saved 80 bucks on getting my iPad fixed, I just did it all by myself, thanks to this video.

@Laptopscreen 12 лет назад

The digitizers we supply now do come with their own adhesive. Makes it much much easier.

@Laptopscreen 11 лет назад

Take it apart, find the flex cable that got ripped, order the cable, remove and replace. Happened to us too, thats why the "danger zones" are highlighted in this video so prominently. Good news is that the newer iterations of iPad put more thought into protecting these cables for such situations.

@MistajinxXx 12 лет назад

I pulled it off. I about crapped myself when the wifi cable was snapped. the inner part was still glued to the frame so I just taped the outer cover to it. Still works great. The monitor screws were a pain in the butt. Had to buy a new precision screwdriver set. used 1.4 mm flat head on the tight screws and the #00 philips on the rest. Used a hairdryer on the edges to soften the adhesive. All in all this task wasn't really difficult as I feared. Thanks for this video.

@geekybasket 11 лет назад

I really like how the screen you offer has options to come with or without some or all of the tools. I placed my order - hoping it works for me. My kids keep getting glass in their fingers :(

@dyasluke2 12 лет назад

Hi there. Great video!! Is it safe to use a standard hair dryer to heat the adhesive rather than a heat gun? I'm not sure of the output temperate, any advice would be appreciated

@jackandcarla 12 лет назад

So easy to follow. Very thorough. Thank you so much.

@Triska5504 12 лет назад

This is the BEST instruction given. Thanks so much for sharing =)

@Trolando 11 лет назад

my son dropped mine over a year ago and its been severely cracked ever since. This video is great because i was going to take my ipad to the electronic store but now i can do it myself. Shouldn't be too hard seeing that i work with guys in maintenance, they can help me too.

@hopewhitlock2297 9 лет назад

very helpful! i put tape over the really badly broken pieces of glass. also have a safe place to put screws!

@ccrespo1975 12 лет назад

Thank you for video I was able to replace screen and lcd, the putty knife made removing glass easy. I saved $180 bucks doing it myself.

@SandyMcClintock 11 лет назад

Thanks - very useful tips and instructions. My iPad is working again after being run over by a car :( The screen was totally shattered into a million pieces. I even managed to push out the dents in the aluminium back. Re fitting the Home Button is not easy to get right. The positions for the double sided sticky patches in my kit were hard to figure out.

@JakeAdams 12 лет назад

Just replaced my screen following this video. The video was very accurate. I would like to stress that if your digitizer breaks, you will likely be cut if not careful. I cut myself three times; be sure to take your time. Removing the digitizer took about an hour. Removing the adhesive/broken glass took another hour. The wireless antenna strip is very sensitive and will rip easily. Also note where the volume buttons are before removing the digitizer. So much can go wrong but I managed to succeed.

@MerraOnline3 12 лет назад

Perfect video .. Talked to me step by step

@Laptopscreen 11 лет назад

Yes the ribbon needs to be tucked away under the edge. There should not be any short 180 degree folds (as described above), all excess ribbon should fit under the left edge.

@Laptopscreen 11 лет назад

Great suggestion! Leaving a video playing on a loop until the iPad turns off should be good enough to do that. However we have to note - be extra patient, and make sure your movements are precise. Look before you act, think before you yank :)

@Duckers_McQuack 10 лет назад

So if i need to replace the lcd screen, i need a new digitizer aswell? Cause my digitizer is intact, but the lcd has a nice star in the middle.

@n__1393 7 лет назад

This was really useful because my dad and I fixed it and it worked

@patels1995 12 лет назад

thank you so much your video was perfect except for the part where the digitizer ribbon had to go in, it was hard i had to shove it in

@Maiaal100 11 лет назад

That`s nice,,, I love RU-vid because I learn really good things

@TheRealPluim 12 лет назад

Hey quick question. Do you know if when I replace the Digitizer where the home button is connected to. I oredered a complete digitizer including home button to replace but I'm not sure if the home button is connected to anything and I can't find a vid where this is explained. Can you explain me how that works? Would be great! Grtz

@coloursoflife211 4 года назад

Sir i have to change my ipad mini2 model A1490 so where can find the genuine screen disitiser plss help

@MUFFUGGER 11 лет назад

I"m so happy that my iPad is working again and not cutting up my fingertips. Thanks so much.

@mihoo007 12 лет назад

Very helpful. I've fixed mine with this video. Thx.

@Signal6000 12 лет назад

I replace my ipad2 screen using ur video. Its abit hard but i did it. Tyanx for video

@Laptopscreen 12 лет назад

Contact pads... the pins are on the main body right underneath, so closing the digitizer puts the Home Button pads against the pins.

@ThexBorg 10 лет назад

Nice work, thanks for making the video

@Laptopscreen 12 лет назад

Wi-Fi antenna is not removed during digitizer replacement, it remains connected with the main body, only separated from the digitizer.

@maestretim 10 лет назад

You didn't address how to test if your home button is properly seated. I worry about setting the front glass onto the adhesive and then finding out the home button doesn't work right.How do you insure that's not a problem?

@cowlumbus 11 лет назад

So does the ribbon that gets stuff under the edge (for the digitizer) get folded over when you glue the glass back down. I"m very concerned that there is to much ribbon and it should just curve under but in fact would have to fold between the LCD and glass!

@hswafk2 11 лет назад

How do do you get the putty knife inbetween the plastic and glass it does not work for me and I am using a very hot hair drier

@Laptopscreen 11 лет назад

Not yet, this can be said of iPhone starting from iPhone4, but not for iPads - these parts are still separate.

@kckcjl00 11 лет назад

is the metal camera frame necessary? i've replaced my screen everything is flush and works except the main top, i think the metal camera piece isn't sitting correctly

@Laptopscreen 12 лет назад

Glass is the digitizer (or rather part of the glass underneath). If you want to fix the glass (digitizer) then you have to replace it.

@PrestonSwitzer 12 лет назад

well done video, thanks

@chadjkeeling 12 лет назад

do u have to get the digitizer with the home button???

@lailijaa 12 лет назад

It was difficult but i did it.....Thanks for the video :)

@Cuzurlame 12 лет назад

Just like the previous comment what happen to the wi fi antenna were was it place at

@Laptopscreen 11 лет назад

Admittedly this is the trickiest step. If the edge of your tool is too thick, it maybe a good idea to start with a sharper one like an exact-o-knife or a box cutter. Once inserted the putty knife can be used to continue the repair.

@Msrecklesskitty 11 лет назад

Where did you buy the new digitizer??

@AfroKing321 12 лет назад

Is it easy to remove the adhesive off

@sweenysbabe 11 лет назад

so when you buy a new screen, it has a new digitizer as well, are they are practically one thing??

@I_LOVE_fish 9 лет назад

my ipad was crmbling so i told my mom to put tape over it. it still works but im trying to not drop it.

@UNIXSOLJASysadminSyndicate 12 лет назад

My poer button dosnt work after doing the repair. I am very confident however I am stumped. Any ideas?

@Laptopscreen 11 лет назад

From our beloved suppliers of course!

@matafied 12 лет назад

Very good video, a++

@Laptopscreen 12 лет назад

Yup, you cut the flex cable on the right-top where the volume buttons are... Don't ask how I know ;)

@anchinhnguyen 12 лет назад

thanks

@andy6myidol101 8 лет назад

I did this all except for re adding the adhesive and putting on the glass screen. Everything is properly hooked up but my iPad isn't showing anything on the LCD screen. Did I do some thing wrong?

@jeffersonguansing6954 8 лет назад

hahha so sad

@cozmoz365 12 лет назад

@cliffplayer Yes.

@sweenysbabe 11 лет назад

ok two questions, has anybody done this successfully after watching this video? and...if i take it apart, is ther a way to tell its working before i glue/tape the screen back on?

@iwannaplaycs 10 лет назад

I have an iPad 2 with a damaged LCD due to being dropped. Surprisingly, the glass and digitizer is not damaged at all, not even a hairline crack. Is it possible to remove the glass and digitizer without damaging it? I need to replace the LCD screen underneath. Also, your LaptopScreen website indicates your digitizers are not OEM, how accurate is the touch response? Is it as good as the original part, or will I notice a difference between yours? Thanks in advance!

@Laptopscreen 10 лет назад

For all technical effects and purposes, the iPad/iPhone digitizers are identical to OEM in specs, composition, materials, elements and performance.

@Tscare333 12 лет назад

Good video

@RetroRepair 12 лет назад

Ugh looks like a lot of room for error. Does the OEM Apple digitizer not come with the tape applied? Are you just using normal 3M tape there? I'm not looking forward to this :-(

@Laptopscreen 11 лет назад

The Wi-Fi antenna lays against the screen. It doesn't go "on the screen" it stays with the main body. If the Wi-Fi antenna separated WITH the screen…you need a new Wi-Fi antenna… Its best to review the above video one more time :)

@cliffplayer 12 лет назад

Is this what I need to do because my screen cracked

@funkycoldmedina32 9 лет назад

Ha Ha..I was about to break open my ipad when I read the reply about hitting it in the back with a palm slap...and it worked..

@yandenuts 8 лет назад

Thanks for the great info and demo. I am wondering on what parts I need to replace on my IPad. Screen has lots of marks, so definitely needs replacing. When I attempt to type a letter, most times it will type the same letter 5 times, if at all. Any dialog box in the middle of the screen, Pressing the OKAY button is useless, until I turn the machine from Portrait to Longitude or vice versa. Is that the digitiser, or just something in the screen? Thanks Again.

@Laptopscreen 8 лет назад

+Mark McNamara Whenever the problem is with touch input its likely that the digitizer needs to be replaced (is it cracked?).

@yandenuts 8 лет назад

Thanks so much for your reply. Duly noted!

@paob121 7 лет назад

+LaptopScreen.com so the digitizer is the screen?

@Laptopscreen 7 лет назад

Digitizer is the glass pane that sits on top and receives touch input. LCD sits underneath and produces light and image. Whichever you call a "screen" is open to interpretation and is not incorrect either way as long as you acknowledge that these are two separate parts :)

@PhOnEJ4cKeR 5 лет назад

Perfect just changed one in about 30 minutes

@HammondB200 8 лет назад

saw you just pulled the wifi antenna from the glass, pulled mine apart -_-

@mjemal100 11 лет назад

what if i dropped my ipad and the glass shattered and the lcd screen is bleeding? how do i fix the bleeding?

@NomNosaurus 12 лет назад

Reattach wifi antenna?

@unicursalhex 12 лет назад

Thanks for the video. A couple of things: If your screen is severely fucked like mine was, a heat gun is necessary. Also, the characteristics of the glass make it break into very sharp, pointy shards that will slice the shit out of you. Eye protection: If you are having to remove tiny pieces of glass, I advise wearing safety glasses...

@Laptopscreen 12 лет назад

We do make our videos "concise", meaning in reality there's quite a bit of fiddling around than in the actual video.

@thomastly04 12 лет назад

did not put back the wi fi antenna???

warning!!!! this video didnt tell you about the mobile data antenae on capable models located along the top right side next to camera between power button same side as wifi atenae i got to this video after ripping wifi antenae because previous video showed me data antenae at top of tablet and i didnt see wifi antenae and watched this video to late not dissing this video great video i just seen to late and his model 2 is wifi only

@Laptopscreen 12 лет назад

Hair dryer is typically less temperature than a heat gun. I'd say it's safer :)

@maristelahenriquez1314 11 лет назад

What about the wifi antenna he didnt put it back on the screen

@Lovenkeener 12 лет назад

All went well with me repairing my iPad. But a corner of my screen won't stay g

@MultiGamersonly 10 лет назад

Will this fix the self touching error ? I cracked the screen and repaired it but still same error. Will the LCD help me fix this?

@Laptopscreen 10 лет назад

Replacing the LCD will not resolve touch issues - those are related to the digitizer, its cable and the connecting jacks. Examine the jacks and the cable, try replacing the digitizer with another one.

@MultiGamersonly 10 лет назад

LaptopScreen.com thanks!

@angelmata8923 8 лет назад

+LaptopScreen.com so screen touch errors are due to the digitilizer and not the lcd ?

@williamtang5686 8 лет назад

HELP PLEASE!!! I removed the broken screen and now I need to remove the four screws... I was able to remove 3 out of 4 but now there last one won't come out!!!Thank you in advance!

@Laptopscreen 8 лет назад

+William Tang If the screw is stripped - you can try to use an exact-o-knife to cut a slot into the screw for a flat screwdriver. If that fails you will have to drill the screw out.

@Laptopscreen 11 лет назад

You're thinking iPad 1, in iPad2 Apple removed the mid-frame
