The LCD is a little dim and I can't see anything on the screen, but it makes this DEN-den-dun-dun-den sound when I plug it in to charger. Additionally, it makes that charging port sound (when you insert iPhone into charger it makes a 'houng' sound). So what's wrong with it. ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED.

[@danielr.7658]

Got to give you thanks for a great video. This was my first screen replacement I've ever done. I bought the whole screen assembly with the camera, home button and earpiece ($30), but I did swap my home button over to the new screen for the thumbprint features. Everything went exactly as mentioned in this video without issue. My phone works and looks like a new phone. Even after 6 years, your video continues to help. Big Thanks!!!

[@alanchadfield736]

Did you have to take it all apart just to change the home button?

[@l3xax3]

@@alanchadfield736 Yeah, kinda you need to dissasemble the old home button and just put it in place if the new screen doesnt have it already

[@Qwickset]

Can't thank you enough! Although the assembly that I purchased already had the speaker and camera assemblies included, the rest was unbelievably informative. I was done in around 45 minutes total. Can't thank you enough. I'll definitely be sharing your channel with any friends or family that need to do this sort of DIY work. You saved me $130 compared to taking it into MacHQ for service! That and I learned something new! Thank you!

[@rudomainmaster]

Part of my post: "I'm guessing that goes around what may be an EMI shield. With the unit I did, that strap appeared to keep that shield can up and as close to the earpiece assembly as possible. If not positioned exactly as it was found, it causes a spot of discoloration near the top of the screen in the finished product."

Always disconnect the battery first once you have the screen and frame separated! You can cause issues if you allow current to pass through the phone when removing the screen ribbons, especially if you make the silly mistake of using a metal tool to pry up the ribbon connectors.

Thanks Jerry, by watching your video to repair my phone for the first time I’ve blown the backlight filter because you FAILED to tell us to remove the battery before touching the screen!! Please please save this happening to more people by adding something to your title or annotate the video...

[@escobedojose48]

If anyone attempts this make sure you disconnect the battery too... shorted the backlight doing this

[@mmz12]

Try just using home+power reset method. I never disconnect the battery, just insure the phone is off and I've never seen this issue and I do quite a lot of iPhones. I HAVE seen where somebody lifted the screen, took off the plate and then powered it down.. but as soon as they used the slider they removed the flex connectors and it blew the filter. Thing is the phone wasn't actually off in this situation. You can tell because if you look at it from the side, the LCD is black but the backlight is still on. I imagine in this case you can potentially damage the backlight filter.

Warning, disconnect your battery before disconnecting the screen or else you will blow the backlight filter, happened to me

[@mmz12]

If you leave the phone on and notice the backlight not working after the repair, just use home+power until Apple logo. It'll work. Turning the phone off will suffice, disconnecting the battery is an unnecessary step.

[@SaltwaterFishingBros]

mmz12 do I turn it off fully

[@SaltwaterFishingBros]

Bryant Unknown do i turn it off fully

[@mmz12]

Yessir, hold the power button and swipe off. Or hold power+home past when the Apple logo appears and it will be off if your digitizer is damaged and touch isn't working. Or just disconnect the battery before the LCD. It's just two screws, a small plate and pop it off with a spudger or fingernail. Should pop off really easy, if it's hard you're probably too far under and about to scratch something off the logic board lol

[@mmz12]

Not so much a chip as it is a microscopic filter. lol And yes if it shorts then this won't work, but I'm not understanding how that's being done unless the phone is still on, or the flex was disconnected moments after turning it off. In that situation the LCD would appear black but the phone actually takes a few seconds after that to turn off and you can tell by looking from the side that the backlight is still on. I think a lot of people get in over their head and rush it. If unfamiliar with these types of repairs or electronics in general they'll definitely do more damage than they will save money. :( I see it all the time in my shop.

Great video. Although I had to watch a couple other videos to figure out how to assemble a few parts more rightly, this was my lead video. After I was done with the assemblage, the phone turned on but the screen was black. I simply pressed down the home+power button for a few seconds and that resolved it. Thank you!!!. To who may find this helpful: prior to fixing my screen, my home/touch id stopped working following a phone drop on a concrete floor which left my screen almost completely shattered. Hence, while detaching the home/touch id from the previous screen to the new screen, I cleaned the front part and edges of the golden coil with 68% alcohol and my home/touch id got back in full performance thereafter. I am not sure what the correlation between a damaged screen and a nonfunctional home/touch id button is, neither do I know if there is a correlation at all, but this is simply what worked for me.

The Phillips screwdrivers that come in the eBay screens are OK if you don't allow them to slip. Once they start slipping, you're screwed. Get some quality hardened steel tipped Phillips screwdrivers and you won't have that problem. Once the cheapo screwdrivers start slipping you can see that soft metal was used to make it and hence, they won't grab the screws. You must hold firm pressure and start slowly when loosening and same in reverse when putting back together. Granted not everyone has the dexterity to do this fine work. If you're not distracted, you should be OK. Just no slipping/gouging allowed, and put a couple white sheets of paper down with a few pieces of scotch tape taped down sticky side up to deposit screws in their order of removal. Any tape will do. Just tape it down at edges with sticky side up. Sketch out metal covers with pen or pencil around the tape if need be to help with that. Biggest thing is having quality tools. Makes a big difference. Also, a couple pairs of tweezers...sharp pointed skinny ones, a single edge razor blade, magnifying glass, flashlight, close up glasses like walmart sells, guitar pick, suction cup. Most of these items come with the eBay screens but it never hurts to have a little more. Lastly...buy and use a good case like an otter box so you don't have to go through this every two months!!!!! Sick and tired of seeing all these people without any protection!!!

[@traceychambers4083]

worked a charm for me, i didnt see the comments about taking battery off till half way through changing screen over but battery was dead anyway, so disconnected the battery before fitting new one and it worked fine for me. no issues what so ever

[@Chatzidakis89]

You didn't mention that if you don't disconnect the battery first there is a great possibility of destroying the backlight filter (a component on the motherboard that controls the, guess what, the backlight of the lcd)! Also the little plastic casing for the proximity sensor must be first attached to the sensor itself and then on the new lcd assembly in order for it to work properly. Also by any means don't mess up with your home button otherwise you will be left without touch ID. P.S.: this "little yellow thing" is the siri microphone

[@mmz12]

Hell just hit up eBay. lol They're all either refurb or aftermarket. None of them are "oem" or "original". If you're paying more than 40 bucks you're getting ripped off. Also, just but the glass/LCD. Don't buy the whole thing with prox sensor/home button/backplate. Just transfer that stuff over unless your earpiece/proximity sensor/home button or front facing camera don't work. Also if you don't swap over your home button YOU WILL NEVER HAVE TOUCH ID AGAIN. Just saying.

[@dpzeee]

Success! Thanks. I had no shorting problems, but suggest you disconnect the battery anyway, because - why not? Actually, you should probably change the battery anyway while you're inside the phone. Someone below said to avoid using metal tweezers and I agree. You can do everything with the plastic tools.

[@UnlikelyToComment]

Argh!!!! Wish I'd read the comments below before attempting. I didn't disconnect the battery and blew my phone. PLEASE UPDATE YOUR VIDEO TO INCLUDE DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY!!!!! Multiple victims of this.

[@kodison4016]

CHRISTOPHER HORSLEY did your screen break immediately ? The backlight? Or does it happen slowly like after a month of screen Replacement

[@adaumus]

thanks for the help. got it all fixed up on my own for about $25, plus my phone looks one of a kind. All black screen with a white button, since my previous phone was white

I did this, but when I open it I still stuck with the apple logo

[@gunnargritzka221]

Thanks Jerry! Went great! For anyone’s phone that wouldn’t turn on afterwards, try plugging it in. Worked for me.

[@killerfrogthefirst]

2 Screws wont come lose on the screen, nice

[@killerfrogthefirst]

+Lottie I didn't, The screws would budge so i gave up and sent it away to get fixed

[@ruimcastro]

I am having the same problem. Two screws are stuck and I can not take them out by any mean.

[@mmz12]

If you're using a size too small you can strip the head. If the screw head starts to strip STOP. Go one size larger, press firmly and turn slow. There are ways to remove it even completely stripped but it's not recommended unless you have experience.

[@mmz12]

None of the screws holding down the shield should ever be "stuck". It's either they were stripped or stripping.

[@lightwxrk]

mmz12 I can't get the 6 screws on the back metal plate to unscrew. What are other ways to get them out?

[@alanchadfield736]

Love the vid's Looked ever so easy until the screen broke. I think I should have warmed it up before trying to prise it open. Question, If I buy a ready assembled replacement, do I have to take everything apart to swap the home button? or can it be accessed without removing the whole frame?

[@marloncardines6940]

[SOLVED] I did not know that you had to disconnect the battery before starting the process of replacing the screen. So after replacing the screen my phone would NOT turn on. After an hour of re-doing everything with no success, I unplugged the battery and plugged it back in.. and voilà it worked. Hopefully this helps!

[@jeninesharland4391]

Hey done the same thing, it worked for a little while no then it stopped and went black again! I tried doing it 8again but this time it just flashes the screen once then goes back to black!! Please Help

I thought you had to unplug the battery before anything? I've shorted a phone before, I'm not exactly sure what I did wrong, can someone correct me and tell me the right way to do it? Thank you

[@shanez1215]

Yes. Definitely unplug the battery

[@mmz12]

I don't ever disconnect the battery. Just make sure the phone is off. A lot of people say they short their filter and damage the backlight but I think it's the screen they bought or maybe the flex connector not seated properly? Most of my traffic is iphones at my shop and I don't disconnect the battery and I've never seen where the backlight or any other damage would occur.

[@lackey222]

Thank you for this video! Got a $30 screen from amazon and just successfully did it by myself. My fiancé was impressed lol. I did unplug the battery per others suggestions and everything works perfectly. I gave up on two screws and a black piece from my camera never went on the new screen by mistake and it didn’t effect anything. Also that lasso frustrated me like no other and I ripped it off. No issues with anything with the new screen :) took me almost two hours, wasn’t easy but doable with patience and being delicate

[@Chevy-dw4wv]

I ripped the lasso to , so nothing is wrong if that gets ripped off?

[@williamhobson6638]

This was excellent instructional video! I watched several others and this my opinion is the best. I will make a recommendation that was recommended on another video, I do recommend that as soon as you open the case you disconnect the battery (There is a Video on replacing the Battery that will show you how to do that.) DOES IT MATTER? I honestly do not know but do you really want to chance it. It is TEDIOUS work. Here are a couple of TIPs. 1. Get a pair of Magnifier clip on glasses. 2. Have a bright lit work area. 2. Maybe have a Head lamp if you have OLD eyes like me (75)! 4. Do have sharp pointed and Slanted blade Tweezers. 4. Do use the iPhone's Screen Screw TEMPLET. (I used an "Avery" 8 x 11 sheet of CLEAR Label - Get at Office Supply), Copied the templet on to it, removed the backing, Reversed it and copied again which allowed me to peal the backing off an tape to the table. That allowed me to place screws on STICKY side up which will allow you to exactly know where the longer screws (2 of them) go AND not worry about loosing the screws (or not) - JUST SAYING!) GOD LUCK!

did you find the way?

sadly no :/

[@eduardosolano837]

You need special tools, it's possible just more professional, Only the iPhone 6 has the metal plate along with bracket for ID touch to Work..

It'll be easier to just buy a new home button

djambo / but in that case touch id will not work.

[@sabyx5]

Thank you!!!! Just did mine successfully , although nerve wrecking for me, I went reallllllly slow..

[@lowestprime]

Why didn't you stress the importance of detaching the battery first before removing the screen ribbon cables? I attempted this repair and after completion, the screen wouldn't turn on (phone turned on fine) because as a result of not unplugging the battery before continuing the repair, something shorted and the Backlight filter (ferrite bead) broke. Long story short, we had to ship the phone out for a microsolder repair for $65 (microsoldering.com). Save yourself the money and detach the battery before performing any repairs on this phone including the replacement of a cracked screen. This ifixit article (step 12: www.ifixit.com/Guide/iPhone+6s+Display+Assembly+Replacement/62900) gets it right, not sure why jerryrigeverything doesn't think it's important?
