Could you do a video on how to repair the 3 flex cables? I have a Apple Watch with a broken screen and the 3 cables are damaged.

[@joerointernational1352]

Those would have to be soldered back together. Not cheap.

I know this comment is old but for future readers... Soldering may seem difficult but it's not and it's an amazing skill to have.

You could have just taken the middle bit of the screen off first the peeled the glass off the force touch sensor strip and you would have kept it in tact.

[@Chrissy_Onye]

What exactly do u mean

[@avivasax]

Can you recommend another link to the screen needed? The one above is not available on amazon.

Unfortunately, you are correct. The replacement screen costs almost the same as a new watch.

Hi guys, I have a question. Can you replace the Apple Watch 2 screen with an Apple Watch 3 screen? Or will that not work

[@nedpardoe1404]

Having replaced the screen, is the watch still waterproof? If not, does the adhesive black ring need to be replaced? Thanks.

[@landshark218]

Yes, no guarantees in a diy project obviously, but if you replace the ring it should be waterproof again

[@ashtinburton4086]

Does this screen make the watch waterproof still?

[@gamemaniac22]

some might say yes but if you have to remove the original screen, I'd just think about it not being waterproof anymore.

[@djsiuk]

It will if done correctly. Replace the adhesive gasket. They are cheap.

I've made many repairs in life but never with tech... my first question is... are you sure should be reusing adhesive of any type? and second question is should the battery have a charge while using metal tools? I'm not trying to be funny I just really don't know

Don’t use super glue, apart from that the video was spot on.

Why does the screen cost almost as the watch wtf

Because Apple want to sell new watches not parts !

And because the screen is the watch 😱

[@danmiller6800]

Oscar Paez that’s how if works with apple products saddle especially with the newer products the back glads for an iPhone X is like 500-800 to fix apple product repairs are just expensive so that apple can just get you to buy a new device

If you shop online it’s cheaper

Exactly.

Maybe instead of the super glue… just add a little heat, like you did with the heat gun (hair dryer). Then as pressure to “reseal”.

[@shapingedge5145]

I have Apple Watch Series 3 Today I experienced with a big problem. The watch turned off and when pressing the side button its not turning on, even apple logo is not showing up. When put to charge, apple logo appears then goes away then comes back and goes away again and this keeps on repeating until I remove from charging I have no idea what to do, tried resetting/hard reset the watch by pressing power button and digital crown together for 10-15 seconds Still no apple logo shows up I don’t know what to do! Tried contacting apple, they say if its hardware problem I will have to replace the whole watch because apple watches are unrepairable. Please let me know if you have a solution, I am in real need for help. Thank you in advance!

what about the fact that the screen replaced like the Force Touch tape has been broken and it will not work
