When will Apple be able to repair iPhone/iPod 5 broken screens?
I have smashed my iPod 5th generation screen and it's really annoying me! Apparently Apple can only replace the iPod with a refurbished one because they can't repair screens yet… Any ideas when they will be able to? Also, from anyone's personal experience, once you've smashed your screen and got it fixed, is your items screen back to it's normal strength or is it quite week and can break easily again? I want apple to repair my iPod due to they're more reliable i think. I appreciate all answers thank you!
I would rather have a refurbished one, that guarantees there are no screen issues like that can occur if replacing it.
Go to a third part repair shop and try to replace it yourself with help on YouTube
They probably aren't making "extra" screen yet because Apple is selling/distributing every iPhone 5 they can manufacture. Any repaired iPhone screen shouldn't be weak. It should be the same as a manufactured one. You should possibly invest in a protective case for the iPhone after you get it repaired. Just be prepared to wait awhile for extra screens to be available.
- Will apple repair a broken screen on my iPhone 4S? Not for free of course because apple doesn't do anything for free, but will it be like the 30 dollars of the back cover or will it be an obscene price like $200 or something like that?
- When apple replaces a broken iphone, do you get to keep the old broken one? The back camera on my iPhone 4s broke (just stopped working), so I called Apple and I have an appointment set up to replace the old phone with a brand new one. But, I want to know if when they give me the new phone, will they let me keep the old one? The phone still works fine except for the camera. In fact, it's almost perfect. And obviously I want to sell the old one on ebay to make a boat load.
- Is there any way apple can find out if I swap screens on iphone 5? I have an iphone 5 with a cracked screen and another one with a perfectly good screen but some other issues that made it useless. I wanted to swap the screens on the two so that one that is working gets the good screen but I wanted to know if there's any way apple is gonna find out that the screens have been swapped and void my warranty. I know how to swap the screens, I have done it before, just wasn't clear on the warranty thing.
- IPod and iPhone both have black screens after update? I updated my iPhone 4 and iPod touch this morning. I can now only access the lock screens. When I unlock them, their screens both go completely black. I've tried holding the power and home buttons at the same time, the apple logo will appear but it still just goes to a black screen after unlocking. I tried restoring them both, but iTunes just gave me error messages saying that they can't be restored. Is there anything I can do to fix them?
