iPhone 3G Screen Repair Overview
Overview:  The iPhone 3G glass and LCD screen repair can be completed by most people with avarage technical ability.  Full service Minneapolis iPhone repair can be completed at our Uptown store.  The iPhone 3G screen is made up of 3 core layers which is the glass/digitizer, midframe, and LCD.  You first need to determine which components are broken.  If the glass is broken but the LCD screen still displays the image correctly then you only need the glass/digitizer component.  If both the glass is broken and the LCD is not displaying correctly, then you need both the glass/digitizer and LCD.
 
iPhone Screen Replacement
 
The iPhone screen components are layered in the following order.  The glass/digitizer is fixed to the midframe with double sided tape.  The LCD attaches to the bottom side of the mid-frame.  It's critical no dust or debris gets between the screen and the LCD as this will be visible when the iPhone is powered on.
 
 
           
 
 
If glass/digitizer is cracked or the touch functionality does not work you require the glass/digitizer part
For severe drops, you could require both the glass/digitizer screen and LCD
 
If the LCD display does not light up or certain parts of the screen do not display then you require the LCD part
The parts between the 3G and 3Gs are not compatible between the two model iPhones

Minneapolis iPhone Repair Articles - It can happen to your iPhone:
The glass or screen on your iPhone is shattered or cracked. You know bettery but you keep using it. You have nice 3G, 3GS or a 4G.  However, instead of being a proud iPhone user - now you cringe when a friend is close, and you find yourself positioning the iPhone so they won't see what is now embarrassing... You have nice 3G, 3GS or a 4G. One day you drop it or rocket launch it - maybe you sit on it.  Either way you end up with broken glass and could use Minneapolis iPhone repair services.  Easy "do-it-yourself solutions" may not be the way to go considering the professional repair services available.
 
 
What does Apple cover for broken glass?
The Apple purchase guarantee does not cover broken glass, even though you think it does. When you ask the maker to repair it, the cost is about $200 or more. Get your guarantee together, you'll see. It's best to be truthful with yourself: There's just two ways to get the broken or shattered iPhone glass or screen to go away.
 
1. Ask a repair facility or Apple to fix it such as iMobileDoctor (premier Minneapolis iPhone repair service).
2. YouTube video are available and possibly repair it yourself.
 
Why repair videos YouTube?
They make it look easy on the video, and you get suckered into buying a part at a huge mark up.The repair videos are on you tube because they want to sell you the replacement parts for five times what they are worth! Get it?
  
There are no You Tube repair videos which actually show you enough detail to give you a fighting chance of doing your own iPhone glass or screen replacement the very first time you attempt it. Examine the comments left about these videos - it will break your heart.
 
If you do not have any insurance and don't have any money to get a new phone, there are some steps you can possibly try to take and see if you can save your iPhone from water damage, but there is no guarantee.

Yes, of course - there may be that rare person now and then who can get their own iPhone repair done right, the first time by themselves. Ask yourself: What are you after? You want an iPhone without a broken glass, right? Then why would you do something which is the equivalent of rolling dice in Vegas? Real iPhone repair persons use proven detailed systems which work.

Know when to stop!
Just because it is unusual that it would be LESS expensive to have something repaired than to do it yourself, remember, shameful things are done in the name of the dollar. The economy is going underground - people are desperate to make or save a buck. If you have already attempted your own iPhone glass or screen repair, tell the repair person you contact that you tried.
 
To possibly try to attempt to save your iPhone from water damage, you will need to disassemble your iPhone so you can dry the parts inside. It is also important for you to that if you open your iPhone and have a warranty, your warranty will become null and void and you are doing this at your own risk. As you are following these steps, you will need to remember how to put it back together and trace your steps backwards.
 
What can you expect to pay?
If you're having the glass or screen replaced on a 3G or 3GS, your total cost should be under $60. Make sure they are replacing both the digitizer and the glass as a unit. It is nearly impossible to get every single spec of dust out before your iPhone is assembled, Warning, expectations should be set to request  "maximum effort" for a clean screen! What should you do when they hand your iPhone back? Make sure everything works, on the spot, and before you hand over the money, honey!
 
This way you can be sure they'll have all the parts they need to complete your repair. Go Independent for a repair person.. Replacing the glass or screen on the iPhone 3G, 3GS, or 4G is expensive at Apple. Now with millions of iPhone devices in the world, there is a common issue that occurs with these devices. The iPhone is vulnerable to breaking because the face of all model iPhones is made of glass. Trying to find a way to repair your iPhone that is cost effective is a chore all in itself. Now what I have found here in Sacramento for iPhone repairs is you can always go to Apple for any repair needed for your iPhone. The problem you run into is the cost to fix it. Every repair cost for the iPhone is $200 going through Apple. The price is for all out of warranty work and self inflicted damage to your iPhone which a cracked iPhone screen and water damage falls into. 

It is still expensive at repair businesses which support brick and mortar locations because they have to pay rent, utilities, and employees. You can save money and time by using a local repair mobile repair person who will meet you where you are, or near where you are. Minneapolis iPhone repair persons have the parts and tools with them - they'll repair your iPhone on the spot and have it back in your hand in as little as 5 minutes.
 
Where can you find them?
You may be able to find one on Craigslist. Be careful. Ask questions. How long have you been doing this? Where were you trained? What is your guarantee? Meet them in a well-lit public place during daylight.
