iPhone XR Display Replacement!

[@iFixitYourself]

If you've got a cracked iPhone XR screen and are attempting this repair, good luck! You've got this. One quick note about iPhone screen replacements: Apple disables some features (like True Tone) after a screen replacement. They have proprietary tools to calibrate the new display and re-enable those features, but unfortunately we don't have access to those tools, and you probably don't either. That said, your new display should otherwise look and function completely normally after a repair! Don't be afraid to attempt this repair yourself. In *newer* iPhones (iPhone 11 and up) Apple goes as far as to pair the original display with the Logic board, and throws an annoying error message in your face after a screen replacement--even if the replacement is a genuine Apple display. You can read more about it here: bit.ly/2GpzbEj. Again, this annoying error message only happens in iPhones that are newer than the XR, so it won't be a problem with this repair.

[@raphaelalba29]

If you may or may not know, there’s an equipment already that can copy the code from your old display to your new display to bring back True Tone functionality

[@deerenzo]

No. I did a screen replacement for my iPad Air 2019 and True Tone still works.

[@mdhasibulhossain8040]

@@raphaelalba29 it's for true tone only as it transfers original display data to the newer one

[@aldenviriyatanudjaja5234]

Il Italiano on iphone true tone will be missing, however on ipad true tone will not be missing

[@RideWithAnthony]

Thank you for your comment. I was going to attempt to fix it myself but never mind I’ll just have Apple geniuses handle this one.

[@jeanbutinfrench]

This is a great argument for not refusing to let Apple do it themselves

[@vaughnjairu8223]

You can restore the true tone by copying the serial on the old display and transfer it to the new one. By using the JC programmer..

[@vaughnjairu8223]

Jordan You can find it on ebay or alibaba. Its cheap. And its easy to use..

[@aribloch]

But why? iFixit parts are super expensive. iPhone 11 Pro Max Screen is $399 just for the part, when apple will repair it for you for $329. I would trust Apple more than myself for basic stuff like this

[@vaughnjairu8223]

Ari Bloch Thats the only way to do it.

[@Ciso_diagnostics]

Ari Bloch i work at a phone repair shop. We are legit, use programmers, adhesives, proper equipment, clean environment and have a variety of screens to choose from ranging from Economy-OEM screens. We charge 150 the least on XRs.

[@aribloch]

@@Ciso_diagnostics I think that's the only way that makes sense. iFixit is unreasonably expensive and not a great business model in my opinion. I would rather take my phone to a shop for $150 guaranteed to work then spend nearly the same amount on just the part, and no guarantee I do it correctly. And then people like you calibrate them and quality test

[@aurum7695]

seems like the screen I bought from the ifixit store came with the lcd shield plate pre assembled, is this new?

[@Zakumei]

First try, got it perfectly, sealed flawless, no torn ribbons and no stripped screws. I'm feelin funky fresh. Customer says its like the day it was opened, and face rec even works.

[@MvsG18]

I’d recommend asking for others to do this, in case you want to have True Tone. As long as they have screen configurators, it will keep saying it’s not a legit screen but True Tone will work just like it did before

[@rmsjern]

Does this avoid the phone saying "unauthroized third party display?" I think not

[@GodaChoi]

Excellent video, thanks! My replacement screen came with no sensor bracket, so I had to remove that from the old screen *and* remove the earpiece grill from the new screen (because the old grill remained attached to the bracket).
