iPad 2 Specs – Real or fake?
So when’s it going to hit? The launch of the Verizon iPhone CDMA is right around the corner. Sprint is announcing something fishy on Feb 7th, and that leaves people clawing and clamoring at the bits to see what ELSE Apple has in store. Unfortunately Steve took a medical leave, so we’re going to be left with hearing COO Cook do the presentation.
I deal with suppliers on a daily/nightly basis. We use the top, most reliable ones in the industry, and from what they say, it’s still all speculation. Parts that are starting to roll out, we’ll see how legit and accurate they are. Time will tell, that’s for sure. As we saw with a drop test, well, the parts we tested, definitely matched the strength of the actual phone that we did a drop test with.
.3 MP Front Camera
5 MP Rear Facing Camera
1920×1280 Resolution(uhhhhh)
White Glass(out goes the credibility). I HOPE we’re wrong, but what it seems like is that right now you can only have a white iphone, if you get a white iPhone conversion done.
9.7 inch screen
As soon as the iPad 2 parts really hit the market, we’ll know for sure. Dual dock, USB, 1 audio jack, seems on par. Facetime, that seems legit as does the 3 axis gyroscope. We’ll see. Until we have it physically in our hands, it’s really all speculation. We’ll keep you posted. Watch out for shady pics, sketchy chinese supplier sites, and people promising you the world, when the world is still not quite at arms reach. And the world being the elusive ipad 2 and its’ mysterious parts. 🙂
iPhone 4 screen replacement – What’s the deal and what you should look for.
Broken iPhone 4 screen and not sure where to turn? iFixYouri offers quick, high quality repairs, at an affordable price. Don’t trust just anyone to repair your iPhone, go with the leaders in the repair industry. We use only the highest quality parts available on the market and have extremely skilled technicians so you can rest assured that your phone will be fixed quickly, and correctly the first time.
iPhone 4 Glass Repair
So many options for iPhone 4 screen replacement services we understand how it can be confusing. We’re going to make this quick and simple, so that your iPhone screen repair goes smoothly and without complication.
Option #1: iPhone screen repair service – Have a skilled technician fix your broken iPhone. Make sure they’re using high quality OEM parts. Cheap parts will fail.
Option #2: DIY iPhone repair kit – Purchase a kit and do-it-yourself. Keep in mind, it’s not as easy as it looks. A lot of times we see people purchase kits and aren’t able to successfully install them.
On the iPhone 4, the screen and the LCD are fused together. If you buy just the glass, you’ll be SOL. Buy just the LCD, well, you’re SOL again.
Fused, high quality, OEM. Go cheap and you’ll get what you pay for. Plain and simple. You have a $600 phone, and you want to put a piece of $10 glass on it? Bad choice. That’s like putting used tires on a nice Porsche. Bad idea.
Phone Screen Repair Parts added
Our iPhone repair parts have been the focus to date but we are proud to announce other parts are starting to filter in. Repair services for HTC Evo screen replacement and Incredible have finally arrived!
We have received countless inquiries about these products but it has taken time to find quality products at an affordable price. Quality and affordability is possible.
Often times people ask us why we are charging more for a replacement screen. We will not buy a screen that scratches or breaks easily. If you are shopping around and find a price $20 than what we offer, we can almost guarantee that you are sacrificing quality. Given the fact that those shopping just broke their screen one way or another, we assume that you won’t make that mistake again. We welcome all feedback as we continue to grow our services.
iPhone screen repair – Cheapest Isn’t Always Best
Recently we had a customer  insist on us using his glass that he bought off ebay (said he paid about $15 for it) with our iPhone screen repair services. He wanted us to save our parts and “go ahead, please use this one.”
This glass was cheap. Poor poor quality. Thicker than the high quality parts we use here, weighed a different amount, different feel(to the touch), no oleophobic coating, touch response was lagging, etc.
We decided to go ahead with the repair, with his glass, to teach him a lesson (he was one of our good friends). We put on the glass, using the adhesive that he got with his kit. This adhesive only covered the top and the bottom of the frame. It didn’t give a full seal so dust was bound to get in between the glass and the LCD. When we put it all back together, the home button felt like it was sitting recessed in the glass, the edges were sitting above the bezel, and the touch response was way slow. We put it together as well as our highly trained techs could, but with the cheap glass, it had nothing but FAIL written all over it.
To top it off, when you pressed a certain part of the screen, it’d make the LCD go white with lines all over it!
Now you’re probably sitting here saying, wtf, why would you leave your buddy hanging with knock off glass, making the repair kind of shoddy? Well we didn’t.
After showing him exactly why in the DIY world, spending a couple extra bucks on proper iphone parts would save you a pain and agony, we went ahead and re-did the glass with our high quality parts. Once the iphone screen repair was complete, it made a world of difference. It looked, felt, and functioned, as if it had just come from the factory.
Some things to look for in an iPhone 3G/3Gs glass repair:
- Glass sits level with the home button
- Glass sits level with the bezel
- Full frame adhesive should always be used to prevent dust between the glass and LCD
- Proximity sensors should not be easily visible(with cheap glass, you’ll see 3 purple circles in the top left)
- No dust/finger prints should be on the underside of the glass
- iPhone 3Gs glass should have the oleophobic coating to prevent fingerprints.
Some things to look for in an iPhone 4 Glass repair
- Glass and LCD should be bonded together
- Home button should be flush
- Metal grate in the earpiece should be present
- Outside frame should be smooth, not looking like someone scraped it w/ a razor blade(yes, we’ve seen that)
- Flush against the metal frame
Follow these tips, and you’ll be sure to get a nice, quality iphone repair. Should you have any questions, feel free to email us at [email protected] or call us at 888-494-4349.
iPhone Water Damage Repair for White iPhone 4
In efforts to show people the best way to save an iPhone 4 from death after water damage, we have decide to drop a custom white iPhone 4 in water and repair it. We offer the white iPhone 4 conversion service for anyone who is interested.
Steps to take:
As we told you in our last iPhone water damage video, make sure the iPhone is powered off. If you get a white pinwheel on the screen and it won’t turn of, you hold down the power button and home button until it turns off.
Next you remove the back cover by removing the 2 screws at the bottom of the iPhone 4 to expose the internals.
11 screws total hold the board in the housing.
Be sure to remove the SIM card tray.
Let sit for 24-48 hours before reassembling.

iPhone Repair Video Planning
Our latest video where we decided to throw and iPhone 3G in water and fix it is our latest video installation meant to educate and entertain. Based on the amount of rice bags we’ve been receiving, it is safe to say people were paying attention.
Sunday we will publish our iPhone 4 water damage video, which stars our custom white iPhone 4 getting wet. I hate to spill the beans but let me tell you the end of the story: we fix it.
Shocking, eh? You should not be. Our water damage repair is highly effective. We know for a fact that our water damage repair is something that separates us from the majority of competition.
Some of our past video’s reflected on our iPhone screen repair services that have the highest success rates. While our competition may be able to make the same claim, most don’t use the quality glass that we do. Front glass and back glass, white glass and black glass–we have it all.
In future video tests we plan on showing people the various nuances of our repair processes. If you have any suggestions or question let us know!
iFixyouri is the top solution for mail-in iPhone repair because of the quality parts, services and support we provide.
iPhone 4 Back Glass Repair Video
Today we dropped an iPhone 4 on its back glass to show everyone how we repair them. In the realm of iPhone repair this is becoming increasingly common, as the iPhone 4 back glass can get scratch and shatter. Also worth noting is the fact that we failed to get the back glass shattering on video. Somebody (names are not important) forgot to hit record button when it shattered. What you see is the drop before it broke, so kudos on the iPhone 4 surviving the vicious fall.
It is a bit of a messy process to clean up and you want to be careful, if attempting a DIY fix, not to get glass stuck in your finger. Try to minimize the glass around you and wear protective eye-ware.
Use a heat gun to loosen the adhesive between the glass and the back frame.
Once it is all cleared away make sure all the glue and adhesive is scraped away. If you don’t it will scratch the new glass overall it will not be good. Using the adhesive provided in a DIY repair kit you then reapply the new glass.
Finally, remove the lens from the old back cover and put on the new.
