Great video... You can use clear packing tape over the screen to prevent the glass shards from flying up and it also holds the screen together when removing.

[@UbergeeksBiz]

Good idea

[@jeffreypinder9398]

That is what I did with the packing tape. Will be replacing my screen during next trip to work where most of my tools are along with my heat gun.

[@tinasusbauer6466]

Such a great addition to this wonderfully made video!! Thanks for the extra tip!

[@retsubrooklyn]

Much thanks for this excellent tutorial! I especially appreciated the calm, even, positive tone: whenever I felt unsure during the process, the tone of the narration kept me grounded. Another successful iPad repair here!

[@emmamcclung9006]

Really appreciate you taking your time to show us step by step.

This video was an excellent step by step instructional video. Thank you very much for your time and for creating this to help others. I completed this repair yesterday on my son's iPad. God bless!

[@jeffreypinder9398]

Best video so far, you spoke thru it and there wasn't any irritating music. Will be attempting this during next trip to work.

Say brother, you are so good. I love the way you explain things I’m 65 years old and I love doing this kind of work

Thank you. Saved me some money. Much appreciated. I have an autistic son who is always cracking screens.

[@christendaniels8781]

I just repaired my son iPad to this video! Just wanted to say thank you for providing the easy to follow video. The repair worked out perfectly!

[@BeMore777]

Great instructional video. I wasn’t sure if I could do this myself so I took my iPad to the Apple Store and they wanted $300. Tried another place they wanted almost as much. I ordered everything I needed from Amazon except the heat gun which I had. So for 10% or $30 I fixed it myself and I’m completely satisfied. Thanks for the instructional video…

[@UbergeeksBiz]

You are welcome. Glad the video helped.

[@MotionDesignStudio]

Love the real time repair. This is excellent work.

[@Stensar69]

I didn’t have the same tools but I improvised and used a dulled razor blade and a heat gun to remove the digitizer. Then a lot of cleaning afterwards but was well worth it ! First time ever doing this and it was a complete success! Almost like having a new tablet! Thank you very much.

[@tawnyanewell5032]

This is the best instruction video!! Thank you

[@Gravity461]

Excellent video, the only concern I had was figuring out the home button flex cable connection, as I needed to replace mine. I just looked that up separately and had no issues. This was easy to follow, and now my brother's iPad is fixed. Took me about 2 hours and 45 minutes, a lot faster than I expected having never replaced a screen on anything before. It was a choice between $40 and have a working iPad for a few more years, or just don't use it anymore, so I fixed it!

[@UbergeeksBiz]

Glad it helped

[@brettschaumburg3994]

what width was the red double sided tape you used? the 2mm, 3mm, 5mm or 10mm? Thanks! Great video btw! :)

[@christophergruber1681]

This video was absolutely perfect in every way. It was my first time trying to repair an apple device and thanks to your video, I did. Glad the screen I got came with a new home button because when I was taking off the broken screen, I sliced it in half. Thanks again for this Gem of a video

[@user-nz1dw8de2x]

Thank you for this great video. I can finally fix my IPAD .

[@user-mv6je7uj4p]

Thanks for the video! For anyone reading this comment, the connection to the home button doesn't snap on like all the other connections so if you don't use the same home button connection like it's shown in this video be very careful when removing the cable and good luck using the new one. I pretty much screwed mine up. Would have appreciated a little more warning about that on this video.

[@zcomz]

Thanx, very informative and ez to follow!

[@UbergeeksBiz]

You are welcome. Glad the video helped.

[@BradySzabo]

There is a little type of hinge mechanism holding the ribbon cable on, once I figured that out, it came off easily. I did the repair successfully but I will wear gloves the next time because gloves should help keep fingerprints of the backside of the screen. Thanks for the great video. I repaired it around Dec 4th and my kid dropped it down a flight of stairs and shattered it again. Very good video and many thanks. The replacement screen I bought came with a home button preinstalled.

[@guysmiley7289]

What do you do if you damage the cable that connects the home button while installing ?

@UbergeeksBiz Great video. Going to try and do it myself! Cannot find exact amazon product adhesive tape in the Netherlands. What size (mm) did you use?

[@garypowell4875]

Where can I buy the orange double sided tape you show in the beginning?

[@TruongLe-eo8kh]

Thank you

[@chrissylaurenbutler3639]

I damaged the lcd display! I tried to be careful but I guess I must have damaged it while trying to pry my very shattered screen off. Be careful about the lcd. I recommend getting the metal pry tool. My kit didn't come with one and it was too hard to get my screen off. I also recommend watching the end of the video before you start so you know exactly what the ipad looks like inside.

[@BradySzabo]

I touched the black lcd screen without gloves and it left streaks on it (from finger oils?). Is there anyway to clean it?

[@paulgrimster4905]

This video is very useful. I bought a new screen with has a new home button, from Amazon . I decided to keep the new screen's home button. I thought it would be easier. The home button cable is attached to a PULL OUT connector, NOT a LIFT UP connector like the other connectors surrounding it. I assumed wrong, and pulled the delicate female connection off the board. It was hidden behind a black sticker. I tried supergluing it (I don't have a soldering iron or microscope ) but it keeps popping off. The screen works fine, except I've lost the home key function.

[@ctphonerepair1763]

excuse me UberGeeks, so I'm replacing screen on same iPad and the touch screen has a dead spot right on bottom (can't click #8 for the pin)! and also it keeps boot looping sometimes. I took it back apart and I saw that I forgot to fold the black display cable along the side of the digitizer. (it was sticking out when I was putting the screen back on). Could I put any glue or adhesive to make it stick back on? Thanks!

[@britni5jarvis]

great video thank you so much saved me $100 doing it on my own

[@MateuszSobczynski]

Would you write what is the temp of your gun heater to not damage digital hardware in the iPad?

[@scottgrant8663]

If my screen is cracked and I can no longer see any display do I need to just replace the digitizer? Or do I need more?

[@919364]

Thanx for a great tutorial. Instead of paying about 187$ (1700 swedish krona) it now only cost me about 55$ (500 swedish krona). I hade som issues though with the home button. It fall apart in three pieces. The button itself, a black round bracket and a rubberbracket. That made me carefully disconnect the the home button cable from the connector. Then it was easier for me to work only having my new screen and the home button to think ablut. When connect the homebutton to the new screen I had to remove the black round bracket othervise i got to high on the screen i bought and I was not able to klick the button. I also struggled a bit getting the cabels in the slot when attach the new screen. The cables on the side (digitizer?) of my screen seemed to be a little bit bigger then on the screen in this video, but after a while I got it in place. (I will not mension that I missed to remove the protective film on the inside of the screen so I had to open it up remove the film and attach it again :-D) In all I think it have taken me two - Three hours. 45 minutes to remove the broken screen, one hour to understand how the "fallen apart" home button should put together to the new screen, 45 minutes to get the screen on place and 30 minutes to open it up remove the protective film and put the screen on place again. Someone asked about heat gun temperature and I had mine set to medium heat.

[@UbergeeksBiz]

You are welcome. I'm glad you did it.

[@darlisbrachotudares]

Hey there! After replacing the panel on my ipad 6th and connected everyhting back for a quick test I’m just able to see just a little section of the screen (and not the whole thing). Is there something I’m missing? :-( please help!

[@whitedude2339]

my screen cracked all around the screen and for a while the ipad would click everything possible by itself but now it seems okay other than the top of the screen is responsive. would i need a new screen or new lcd?

[@Gegsite]

I have just changed the glass, but it say the touch id do not work. The button is working tho. Maybe the cable is not in the place well?

Hi there, your video was very informative and makes the process clear. Unfortunately when I switched my screen back on my LCD has lines going through it and is unusable. Do you know how I can fix this. Screen was working fine before I attempted the repair to glass touchscreen. Thanks

Hi there sir. What an amazing video! I followed all of your steps, and everything worked beautifully however, my home button doesn’t work at all. It makes a clicking noise, but it does not work. Do you know why? Thanks

Double check the flex cable. Making sure it wasn't damage. Also check the connection, make sure it is firmly connected.

I always try to repair iPads myself but every time i put on the new digitizer it never works. It’ll ghost touch sometimes but the regular touch screen never works.

Yes. You can remove without damaging the screen

Notice no one is talking about the ipad bms and how to replace them.

[@jaynotjoe7589]

Hi, great video. I'm having a Ghost touching issue, it looks like the repair shop used a cheap replacement with little or no insulation so something is causing it to short against the frame, either the home button cable or the LCD cable and other areas that wasn't insulated properly, I'm also seeing bubbles on the inside of the screen, so Im guessing they never removed the protective film and the heat is causing the bubbles. If that is the case, would that also be whats contributing to the problem along with (possibly) torn flex cables that are touching the frame? Thx

[@UbergeeksBiz]

Best is to ask the repair shop to redo the repair. Or you can get a new digitizer screen and DIY. Pretty much you nailed it on the issues. About the ghost touching, I would cover up the sensor on the back of digitizer

[@sillylolonyt2496]

Same.

Some of the reviews for this don't make sense. This kzbin.infoUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA works as well as any power strip I've used. Plug in what you need, be sensible about it & keep it movin' The construction is plastic but it's a sturdy piece. It has a single toggle switch & the swivel jacks are useful as well. Plugged in next to Tripp Lite Isobar takes some of these reviews with a pinch of sumthin' - does what it says & functions properly.Had for about a month. Perfect no complaints will update if anything changes.

[@Paulo0pinto0elec]

Once you remove the screen there is a some type of sensor/antena in the top right corner. Do you know what that is?

[@UbergeeksBiz]

Top would be for data service antenna. Like your SIM card to catch cell tower data signal

[@Paulo0pinto0elec]

@@UbergeeksBiz My Ipad don't have SIM slot, so I'm not sure that is it. At 11:30 of the video is possible to see the little square that i'm talk about. The sensor/antenna is cover with foam tape.

[@UbergeeksBiz]

@@Paulo0pinto0elec Isn't that the rear camera ? I'm guessing is just sticky foam from having the rear camera back banging the glass or touching digitizer sensor.
