Ipad2 screen replacement

Postby brandon327 » Wed Mar 12, 2014 8:37 pm

How much to replace a screen on a ipad 2 ? I see some kits on amazon but they seem cheap to me. My baby girl just threw my oldest daughters ipad off the table and broke the screen.

fyi that was given to me on a business ipad2:

not sure how bad of a whack it took, but for business uses it is recommended that you get a refurb due to something on the board getting knocked loose that causes other problems down the road.
the techs that i've talked to said it usually turns into a goose chase to find gremlins in them after screen replacements.

My LCD is fine it is just the glass. Apple wants $199 to replace the glass. I can get the replacement glass and tools from amazon for less than $50.

Ask tntmck. He knows how to take screens off, change batteries and such on iPhones. I doubt there's much difference at all between an iPad and iPhone. He has likely changed out stuff on an iPad too.

Thanks for leads. I want to get it fixed I just can't see paying $200 to fix when you can get a new knew for $300. I am gonna try some of the alternatives suggested.
