Please Help Troubleshoot DYI iPhone 4 Repair
location: imore.com - date: June 10, 2012
Yeah, I know--I shoulda had it fixed. I decided to risk it because I'll be getting an iPhone 5 when it comes out and can do with a loaner POS till then. And, I wanted to advance in dweebhood by gaining a little practical experience at this. And yeah, I'm a twit. Granted. For now, I would greatly appreciate advice on what to do. Let me spell out all the details so you can see where I stand. Story: I cracked my iPhone 4 from glass panel. Got a replacement part, took iPhone apart, tried to fit screen on...and discovered it was the screen for an iPhone 4*S*. Didn't know the difference (top corner screw brackets the giveaway) and error was seller's; order page, invoice, and box were marked "4" and not 4S. So I had to wait 2 days with a disassembled iPhone (covered or bagged parts while waiting), got the right part from another seller (got a refund for the wrong one), and put the phone back together. I don't think the wait affected anything

PLEASE....I NEED HELP!!!! iPhone 4 Repair
location: modmyi.com - date: June 6, 2011
I'm new to this thread, but I'm going to use it a lot. So please please help me, I'm not a noob and will bring forth little to no ignorance lol I repair iPhones, I have repaired several....but today experienced something I never have. It is an iPhone 4 and it had been washed in washing machine. When I received it, it would try to power up, but only when connected by cord. The backlight wasn't working on the LCD so I broke it down and completely cleaned all cables and connections. There was a little bit of corrosion on the LCD cable and on the LCD connector on the mother board. Cleaned them very well and reassembled. Backlight worked like nothing was ever wrong. But, when I tried to start up the phone it would only try to power up when connected by cable and it just showed the apple logo and powered back off and was stuck in this continuous loop. I then entered the phone into DFU mode and computer recognized it. Tried to restore and update but got error 1611, tried to r

Iphone 4 repair?
location: ilounge.com - date: September 15, 2011
I just sent my Iphone 4 in to be shipped today to Apple. It has currently been shipped already. I had a reboot problem on my Iphone 4, where all it did was reboot itself every 5 minutes or so. So do you think they will send me a new Iphone 4? And about how long will it take them to send it back to me?

iPhone 4 broken screen repair price and place (iPod classic 5th gen repair place)
location: ilounge.com - date: May 21, 2013
Hi everybody. About 2 months ago my iPhone 4 screen broke, and the good thing is that it is still working, but accidentally it fell again, and a little part from the screen went off. And now some pieces are starting to get out from screen, and before it gets f**ked up, I need to repair it. And I have considered take to the Apple store, but I'm afraid about the price or if it would be repairable, because then I have to buy another one. So if some of you have experienced this before and solve the problem. Can you post where you took the device for repair it at a low cost. (Also I want to take my iPod Classic 5th Gen 30gb, can you also post the price and location where you were able to fix it?) Thank you

Cracked iphone 4 screen - How to Replace/Repair?
location: macrumors.com - date: August 26, 2012
I recently cracked my iphone 4's screen. I took it to apple and the cost to replace it is the usual $200. I was thinking that I may be able to fix it myself for less money. My question is, where should I buy the digitizer from? Is the digitizer separate-able from the lcd or are they fused so that I would need to by an entire lcd+digitizer combo? Does anyone have any feedback on the repair process and its difficulty? I watch a couple videos and read the ifixit tutorial guide. The process seems pretty long but is it difficult? It seems easier than an ipod since the iphone has screws rather than only glue.

Broken screen repair for IPhone 4?
location: macrumors.com - date: September 19, 2012
My wife had her iPhone 4 slip out of a pocket this evening and land screen first in the street. The screen pretty much shattered although the phone is still in perfect working order. Any idea how much it costs to get a new one put on by Apple? If we repair though them would it affect the warranty? Fortunately we kept our old 3GS phones so she can use it while being repaired.

iPhone 4 not charging after DIY repair. Please help!
location: imore.com - date: January 23, 2013
Good morning everyone! I want to preface this post by saying that I am a Mechanical Engineer and am extremely hands-on. That's why I decided to repair my own iphone. Story: Bought an iPhone 4 brand spanking new. ~9 months after getting my iphone, the lock button went out. Under warranty, I got a new one. That lock button lasted ~7 months and I was out of warranty. I replaced the lock button myself and decided to spice up my phone with a white home button (Its a black iphone). Everything worked fine for a while, then the home button started working sporadically. Last week I disassembled the phone again, removed the white button from the ribbon, and put it onto the stock button ribbon. Reassembled the phone, and broke the digitizer ribbon in the process. $35 later and I have a new screen and digitizer. Got the phone back together and the screen was black. Vibrate still worked. Didn't recognize the computer or the wall charger. Took it apart again to look for p

iPhone 4 Volume button Repair
location: modmyi.com - date: July 5, 2012
Hi everyone! My iPhone volume button is not working properly. I have to press harder for it to register the input. I have been searching online for a fix and seems like replacing volume button piece would fix the problem. Has anyone done this themselves? I'd like to just verify if indeed this solves the problem.
