When closing it do i put adhesive at the bottom where it had it or its fine to just leave it without putting

[@thunderbyetronics]

Very relaxing watching you do the repair. Loved the background music

Very good instructional video, well done! Thanks for sharing! 👍🏻

[@TheFixTech]

Your welcome, Rose!

[@ducter2001]

Very good video.. I had to replace a "shot" battery on my Ipod touch (6) . It's amazing the battery was only a couple of euro & included was a small suction cup & plastic tools. After a gentle heat on the lower adhesive pads the suction cup removed the screen & side clips with very little effort & no damage..

[@ssr6855]

bravo! nicely done.

[@TheFixTech]

Let me know if you have any questions regarding this repair, Thanks for watching!

[@ashleyfishley4290]

I just used your video for replacing my screen. The screen was not smashed or cracked, but the touch did not work! Everything was going smoothly with the replacement, the video was helpful and I thought it worked. But I turned it on after and the touch still did not work. Any idea what the issue could be? Great video by the way!!

Hey, great video. Where can I buy a screen? I live in India

[@shyra17]

Hi , I really enjoy your video and it help me changed my iT7 lcd . All seems went well but when I try to close it after changing the antenna port as well, my screen appeared as pitch black. I can turn it on but it shows pitch black only. Not even the logo. May I know what might have caused that and what is the solution? I highly appreciated any reply from you. Thank you 😢

[@Vatation]

Does anyone know what the gold sheet is to the right of the battery on top of it ??

[@kimm8529]

Thanks for this great how-to. I am having problems getting the clips to catch when closing the ipod, especially on the left side where the volume buttons are. Any thoughts? I'm afraid I might break the new screen if I squeeze any harder. Ipod works fine though.

[@TheFixTech]

The metal shield that screw down into the frame has small metal catches that clamp onto the plastic screen frame, these need to be carefully bent upward and inward to catch onto the new frame. This happens occasionally to newer screens that are not quite exactly like the original

[@kimm8529]

@@TheFixTech Thanks. I figured it might be the shield. I already removed it and placed it again but no luck. I will try your suggestion now. To be sure I understand this though, from the outside in is base, metal shield and screen frame. Correct?

[@kimm8529]

@@TheFixTech Well, tried it and then the other side wouldn't go down all the way. Screwed around with it too long and ended up with a bunch of lines all over the screen. What a waste of money.

[@Drj660]

One of my antenna screws are stripped.. how awesome is that? 🤦🏽‍♂️ 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@clashroyaleofficial581]

Good Video, but why didn't you use any adhesive strips when closing it up?

[@TheFixTech]

The iPod touch only uses small adhesive strips near the home button, the rest clamps down with metal and plastic clips located on the screen frame and iPod housing. The factory adhesive strips are very sticky and reusable

[@markr7033]

Can i buy just the mid frame bezel for my 6th gen A1574 the screen is fine for some reason bezel dried out or ? And came apart in places lifting the screen

[@TheFixTech]

You can re glue the bezel or yes, you can buy just the frame. Usually an eBay purchase.

[@kntwing23]

[@TheFixTech]

Which camera, front or back? Or do both not load?

Yes you can

[@Clorox.Bleach]

See the very first part is what's wrong with my iPod from daily use its glue gave up wonder how much would cost for someone set back in its correct placement

[@kntwing23]

what if u dont have a heat gun? how do u open it?

[@TheFixTech]

You can use a hair dryer as not much heat is needed.

[@davidallancoe01]

How’s the Bronco?

[@TheFixTech]

Still working on it and gathering parts. It is tough finding original Ford parts (the correct ones anyway), my next two videos will be about the Bronco.

[@ryand2529]

How can I discern which generation it is? And what size screws are those?!?!

[@TheFixTech]

There are a couple ways, in the settings app/general/about. Or on the back of the device there will be a model number. Screw size: tiny
