iPhone screen just cracked HELP!
    #21579496 - 04/22/15 08:39 AM (9 years, 28 days ago)

This is the only place I could think of to go!!! My iPhone 5 screen just cracked and thats never happened to me and I'm going to get it sent to get it fixed but I haven't backed up my phone since 2013 and I have a lot of valuable shit like numbers/texts/videos/etc that I can't afford to lose. How does this shit work? Do they just pop out your broken screen and pop a new one in and the phone is basically exactly the same? They keep talking about having to back up your phone which makes me think that my shit is going to be lost or erased. Please someone let me know how this screen repair shit works?

I also need to mention I can't get into my phone. The screen got so fucked up that I can't open it at all or see anything.

Usually they would just replace the screen if you go to an apple store or something like that, never used apple so idk it that's all there is to it or not though, but if it go taht mangled and the insides are fucked, you're most likely fucked too.

Try plugging it into a usb that's in your computer, when the little icon that acknowledges you plugged something in comes up try to upload everything to your computer that way, so you can reupload to your new phone (if it's so fucked they need to replace it)

Apple doesn't usually replace the screen on site. Anytime I have seen or had this happen, they replace the entire phone with a new one if you have AppleCare+. Or they charge you for a refurb phone. But if it's an iPhone 5, it's probably outside of the AppleCare+ warranty if you bought it when the phone first came out so you will need to get a new one or pay for the repair. Sometimes Apple will help you out though, even if they aren't obligated to do so.

To replace the screen you need to buy a "pentalobe screw driver". It's a proprietary screw driver head that will allow you to unscrew the 2 screws that keep the screen in place. The screen being broken shouldn't affect you from backing up your phone to your computer though. And if you have iCloud setup, your contacts and important info should be saved in the cloud anyway.

Just go to a mall kiosk and have them replace it.  Should be like a $150 or so.

Plug the phone into your computer with iTunes on it. You control the backup process from the PC.

Lol. The way OP has worded everything to make it sound like he didn't crack the screen, it just happened. Like the phone wanted to kill itself.

I repair iphone screens. If you want you can ship it to me and I'll do it for my base price of 65$? I have a 5/5 trade rating and paypal verified. Your choice.. just throwing it out there..

also is it an Iphone 5, 5s, or 5c?

It would take a week but I mean it's a lot better then paying 100-150$ because those places rip you off. Also you can log into your icloud account and back everything up before you send it out. If you want to...

I've cracked my phone 5+ times, I've become almost an expert at these fucking flimsy ass screens. Also repairing the screen wouldn't let me into the phone if it had a passcode. So whoever u send it to can't get into it anyways if you had a passcode.. everything stays on the phone all you did was break the screen assembly, as I have done 5 fucking times.. I was too cheap to buy a case. now I have one.

I've broken my iphone 5 screen 2-3 times. Repaired it myself every time. All u need is to think like a doctor and buy an iphone 5 digitizer off ebay, $30

It'll get there on a few days if u can hang that long. Watch a few repair videos on you tube in the meantime, as well as when you finally dig in. I happened to fix my screen, then dropped it again within a week and broke the new one, so after the second repair I have become somewhat accustomed to the innards and can replace a screen in an hour or so.

Pretty awesome, yet simple enough electronics inside these things. Fun experience if u are a DIYer too
