Friend of mine has a iphone 3g with a cracked screen, not the screen itself just the outer part. Might buy it off him and fix it up with that kit :cool:

Take it to Apple Store and they will give you a new one.



Seriously? :cool:

If its still in warranty then yeah

No idea what a digitizer is though, might be more expensive to repair.


I did the same in MK for £45. TBF it's flawless and like new :)

On the 3G it is a pretty easy job to replace the screen. I've done it on mine too...

I have an iPhone 16gb 3gs that needs a new screen and potentially a digitizer. Any ideas wether it's worth fixing or sellin for parts?
