My iPhone screen is cracked?
I have an iPhone 4s that I bought from Verizon! Unfortunately I've broken my screen and I've been looking at my options for fixing it. Through Verizon even with my insurance it'll cost me about $169.
I've looked at the Apple website and saw a lot of people who were able to bring it there and just get a new one as like a 'one time forgiveness" type thing, but I didn't buy my phone from then and I didn't have my insurance thing through them either.
I've also just been told to do it myself, and after watching the videos on how to do it I PROBABLY could figure it out, but I also would prefer to avoid that if I can.
What are my options and what are the costs?!

The absolute cheapest way is to buy one from China through somewhere like Amazon. They run about $30 and then find a friend who is good at fixing things or has done this before. The ones from China are hit and miss though as far as quality.
Also Amazon sells a more expensive kit but gets much better reviews.

If you send it anywhere to get fixed it will cost more than you want to spend. It's really not that difficult for anyone with minor mechanical ability.
You can get this done for pretty cheap by a professional shop. Try googling iPhone repair shops in your area. I know of a place near me in the mall that does it for like 45 bucks, so there might be someone near you that does the same.
If your LCD and digitizer are 1 part combo, your looking at a $80-$100 do it yourselfer… Or $200-250 to pay someone like me for parts and labor… <evil laugh>… If just the LCD is cracked and the 2 are teo sperate parts, then make that a $30-$45 do it yourself or $100-150 for shops like me.
gotta get insurance people… But keep ignoring us and we'll stay in business
