I would give it a thumbs down because it is "icracked" where I simply went to see what they charged but they make you schedule a repair to even TELL YOU ...and I saw no feedback to complain ....so here is a place to lash back ...right or wrong it is my privlege ...maybe they will listen...I HATE businesses that don't put the PRICE! WHY the big mystery?????
Buy your screen replacement kit in Amazon! www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DK1Q6EE/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B01DK1Q6EE&linkCode=as2&tag=amazon024f8-20&linkId=6f8e4aa85963ae7b8a549e3c5a51b2c5
@@nonsensze I just sped it up. This video has better angles and much more detail than most of the others, because one slip-up can render your phone useless. A lot of thought went into this video
The videos here are unquestionable the best on the web. A trick I learned for holding the screen up vertically when attaching the connectors etc. is to attach the screen to a can of baked beans (or something) with an elastic band. Also when attaching the home button, I just use a tooth pick to hold the screen ajar while I connect. then you have beans on toast afterwards as a reward :)
ICracked, this video was by far the best out there, there was no skipping over the finicky stuff like the LCD sensor and the sort, I liked the little tip about moving the screen to the side to remove the home button connection especially. I just replaced the screen myself now for 20euro rather than 80euro in a shop! Thanks a million!
There were a few times I almost bailed... this was amazing. Your explanations were clear and concise. I appreciate the 45 minutes you put into this!!! Thank you for being so thorough. By far the best video I was able to find.
Me too. It was nice to see that the guy doing the video had to work pretty hard at a couple points as well. Gave me the mojo to power through. Thanks iCracked!
GREAT video - just what you want, step by step, informative. Even the guy's voice is calming when dealing with these pain in the ass cables. Never paying a shop again to fix one of these.
***** the point to any business is to sell stuff. This guy is giving you the tools you need to fix whatever is wrong with your phone. He could just tell you to send your phone in and charge you double, but he's not.
iCracked! Hey man! I can't describe how grateful I am with you right now. I just did it on my wife's iphone 5s and it works!!!! I've changed the screen like you do in your video and also I've changed the battery. Man, you really rock! Thank you thank you very much for this amazing video.
Thank you, a very useful demonstration, especially all those small details that otherwise ruin the whole job, like the small hinge and the vib. motor......
Finally !!!!! A perfect and detailed instructional video. This is my 3rd one. The first 2 despite having lots of views sucked. Totally inaccurate, sloppy and or out of focus on the small parts that matter. THANK YOU. Worked like a charm.
I sampled a lot of videos before attempting this and this one was by far the most careful, thorough and clear. I followed along step by step and somehow remarkably refurbished my daughter's crushed iPhone. Well done.
icracked, I just successfully finished the repair of my daughters iphone 5s!! The instructions provided were very thorough and accurate, I highly recommend the icracked repair kit and video. THANKS!!!!!
M.C. Pointer You can also purchase a screw extraction kit from our online store (shop.icracked.com/collections/tools/products/6-piece-screw-extractor-kit).
I had literally no experience with the insides of iPhones, and I was even dealing with a slightly botched screen replacement done by a bad repair shop (they lost a couple screws and the plate that covers the home button flex connection, the little frame around the front facing cam, and my front cam & co component is disconnected from the temp plate) and now my phone works just fine as far as I can tell, unlike before when it was sometimes unresponsive to touch, or acted like I was touching it when I wasn't. Then a few weeks ago I dropped it on concrete and just barely made 4 cracks in the top right corner. A few hours later, LCD stripes were all over my phone, and the Back cam started not focusing about a week ago. Now all of these immediate problems have been solved and I am very happy and pleased.
Emmitt Kinch We are sorry to hear that you are having this issue with your repair. Please try taking a very small square of duct tape and placing it sticky side down over the screw head. Then use your screwdriver to push through the duct tape and try to remove the screw again. The duct tape should act as a filler that expands into the void of the stripped screw head and the tape's adhesive also helps grip the sides. If this does not work, you can also purchase a screw extraction kit from our online store (shop.icracked.com/collections/tools/products/6-piece-screw-extractor-kit).
this worked well with my dad's iPhone! I never thought someone like me who hasn't done any major repairs as delicate like this could make it work lol. your instructions was clear and full. thank you so much!
ATTENTION: it is important that, when you replace your screen, you make absolutely sure every screw goes back to where it came from; reason being, some screws, even the ones holding down the same panel, are different lengths, ranging from 1.3-1.5 MM. If you mix them up and put a 1.5 where a 1.3 mm screw should be, it will actually damage a micron(?) or other hardware underneath, rendering the phone useless. BE CAREFUL
I think this might've just happened to me... I changed a 3rd screen and I had 1 screw wrong, I then swapped the srew but now it does not turn on :( hahahaha FML
Absolutely fantastic, finally fixed my girlfriend's iPhone 5S and everything is working fantastic. Thought I'd mess up, but this video was super helpful! Thank you so much!
best video on how to replace the 5s screen. instead of paying over $170 just payed $40 for screen and now thanks to this video i saved so much money. phone works, all cables plugged into the right slots. 10/10 thankyou *****
You're a GD genius. You should've gone to medical school. This is hands down the BEST phone screen replacement video on RUclips. I followed along and replaced my daughters screen perfectly on the FIRST TRY. I love that you know thw names of all the compnents and spell it out for us. You are a SAINT sir. Thank you!!!!!
Your video saved me a ton of TROUBLE. May God bless you for being so kind and patient enough to do this video. I purchased the iFixit kit to help my lady fix her iPhone 5S, believing that their video would help. No! It didn't help at all because the lady that put it together was so full of herself. About 80% of her video was done showing off her smiling face like she was trying so hard to advertise herself in search of a date. I watched her for about a day and when I tried to replace the iPhone 5S battery, using her tutorials, I ended up damaging the phone. I viewed your video once and was convinced that you got the sound technical knowledge to lead in this arena. I never saw your face once. It was all about the fingers and the areas of the phone that you worked on - (in real time). You were so methodical and straight on point. You talked about any potential problem areas and how to avoid messing up things around such areas. It felt like you were an Apple Engineer who co-designed the phone. My phone is working really good now. And I am so confident now that I have even made money helping others with batt replacement. Thank You, Sir.
does this work if the screen i mean the touch screen doesnt work i touch it and just show black lines .Is this video works just for the glass or for the screen generally including the touch screen .i dont know if i made it good to understand my english are not good and my knowledge of iphone is limited .
+stavros karipidis this would work no madder how messed up your original screen is because in this video he demonstrates the entire screen being replaced. So even if your screen is unresponsive I believe this still would work. pro tip: unless you feel 100% comfortable doing this to your phone I recommend having it fixed by a professional just because it was super stressful and really easy to make a mistake. Hope this helps and good luck!
thank you well i am just watching and rewatching the video until i will know for sure that what will i do .i will buy from the internet a new screen and i will try this.How does it cost a new one ihave seen about 40 euros is it ok ?Excuse me but i know nothing about technology i just started doing a research on forums and videos like this one so i can be smarter and of course save up some money.thank you for the response.
+stavros karipidis I got my screen on eBay for 28$ make sure you get the screen with the ribbing cables and not just the glass. Best of luck!! Also I don't know for Europe because I'm assuming that's where you're from, but at the mall there is always a store that fixes screens for around 100$ at least in the US
This is a great video. It not only shows step by step how to do the repair, it also gives the names of the small components, explains what they do and what you need to do to avoid damaging anything. I watched this one and a couple of other videos about replacing just the cracked glass, before ordering a replacement screen. This helped me decide to order the glass with the digitizer already assembled. Then I watched it as I did the repair and stopped it at each step. My repair took less than an hour to do and everything turned out well. I am pretty handy and I was scrupulous about keeping track of the screws and other parts as they came off.
I was very nervous to replace my screen since the comments made it seem like everyone had a problem upon finishing so I took my time and followed this video very carefully and everything turned out great! thanks for all the little details to watch out for
hey i know this video is old but its still very much relevant! Thanks for the side tips especially having a specific issue of the bottom part being a butt for not locking in place (which u solved by putting a flexible pry tool and giving a little movement to the metal chin of the phone). Thats the specific part that's so hard to look for when finding a guide for me. Finally able to revive my old phone. Thanks again!
This is the best video I found to show all the detail and every step to replace your iPhone 5S screen. The only issue I found with the small white ambient light sensor filter he shows transferring over is actually only found on black screens. If you have a white screen you will not have that. Hope that saves someone else the panic and googling when they are replacing a white screen.
Saved my phone watching this, changed the battery while I had it apart. Only difficult part was getting the top assembly of camera lens, sensors and speaker in place to get the steel cover back on. Tip would be to lay parts out on double sided tape as you take them apart so it keeps screws with the right bits and screws that are size critical in the right place. Take your time and be methodical and it can be done.
Well, there are videos which show you how to do this in 5 minutes … and after 90 minutes you end up with an iPhone beyond repair. This one takes its time, but shows every catch and problem in close-up (and I mean really close close-ups, so you can determine every bracket’s alignment and stuff) - if you haven’t done things like this before (like me) you’ll be grateful (like me)! Thanks a lot, splendid tutorial!
Just finished the replacement. Excellent instructions and a good run down of what to look out for when reconnecting cables. If you want a 10 minute video, you will surely get 10 minutes of top level stuff without the added details. I got everything but Touch ID to work. I finally decided to stop trying sealed everything back up. Thanks again!
Thank you SO MUCH for this video! I found plenty of videos and instructions for the removal of the screen and connections, but this one had both the removal AND the re-connection process! I loved how there were lots of explanations as to what everything was and how it worked and there were so many great troubleshooting steps and helpful tips along the way as well...Really, I cannot praise this video enough. Thank you, thank you!
Incredible! Watched it 6 times before attempting (I was so scared!!) Explanation flawless! Thank you so much! Fixed my daughter's phone in 90 minutes! It's working as if brand new!
OMG thank you sooo much ! I dropped my phone, the screen shattered and the touch wouldn't work anymore. I really needed to get my phone fixed before my due date which is in 2 days so I can take pictures while in delivery. It took me forever only because I had trouble getting some of the screws loose. Other than that there were no issues following your step by step instructions !! My phone is like new again !
Man, you saved my ass. I promissed to my friend to change her display unit, but it was loong way: 5 months take that display to come to me from China, and now I found how complex this piece of junk is. I changed lots of Lumas or Chinesse phones displays, digitizers, other components,but never seen phone like this. So I went along your video step-by-step, for the first time in my life. Big, like a BIG THANK YOU!
I have done a few of these screen repairs and your tutorial is the the best I have seen so far. I definitely learned more from it than others . Thanks for the awesome help.
Thank you so much for taking the time to post such a thorough, detailed video. I was able to fix my broken iPhone 5S screen with absolutely no problems. Aside from the hardware being incredibly small, your guidance made the process very easy. Thank you again!
thank you so much. your tutorial was clear, easy and very detail. As a bonus, I was able to repair the vibration mode that wasnt working since I bought. Congratulations and again Thanks!!!!!
Thanks for the detailed video. I just completed the repairs on a iPhone 5s, just take your time. I actually purchased a digital desk lamp from performing previous small electronics repairs, I knew it would help greatly. I also had a small tin can lid to hold the small screws in. a nice uncluttered desk in front of a computer helps a lot! Great video!
This help me a lot. A lot of video i watch but this one is truly a effective one. Godbless and continue teaching everyone who needs help. More power to you sir. Thank you. From Phil.
Thank you for a wonderful and one the most detailed and easy to follow video. just finished replacing my iphone 5s screen and every thing works like a charm.
absolute life saver! went without a hitch other than my screen was to cracked to suction cup so i just took a knife to the groove. Thank you so much for this easy tutorial!
Thanks man, I've been hanging on to my broken iPhone 5s for years. I fought with the EMI shield but everything came together perfectly. Really appreciate the tutorial!
This video is AMAZING the detail of the explaining is awesome, i am from Belgium my english is not that great. At first i had a problem that my phone did not start at all it was fixed when i puttet the charger on, i did not had to remove anything else. Thank you iCracked for this amazing video
Adding to others' comments......Great video! It was really helpful in all respects, and I managed my screen replacement with little trouble. Very thorough video. Thanks so much!!
Excellent video. I just replaced my Iphone 5s' screen following your instructions. Your instructions are clear and immensely helpful. Thanks a million. I will like and subscribe.
My complements for you two-way guide, much more detailed and correct than the guides on the big-name disassembling websites! Changed my iPhone 5S screen without any problems/side-effects after getting all the pieces together! Cheers!
Thank you for posting this video! I've follow your instructions just like you did in this video and I succeed with my iphone 5s screen replacement. Best video ever!
Thanks! Because of you i was able to buy a 100 dollar iPhone 5s with a broken screen, and buy a new screen for 30 dollars. Now I have a (sorta refurbished) iPhone 5s for online 130 dollars!
Very good instructional video, I was able to repair my son's phone while I ran the video. I have only one suggestion to add. My kit came with a tool kit but it quickly became apparent that it was not complete. I suggest appending the start of the video with a layout of the needed tools.
why would anyone give this video a thumb down?? it is straight forward simple explanation , good all around.
I would give it a thumbs down because it is "icracked" where I simply went to see what they charged but they make you schedule a repair to even TELL YOU ...and I saw no feedback to complain ....so here is a place to lash back ...right or wrong it is my privlege ...maybe they will listen...I HATE businesses that don't put the PRICE!

I had literally no experience with the insides of iPhones, and I was even dealing with a slightly botched screen replacement done by a bad repair shop (they lost a couple screws and the plate that covers the home button flex connection, the little frame around the front facing cam, and my front cam & co component is disconnected from the temp plate) and now my phone works just fine as far as I can tell, unlike before when it was sometimes unresponsive to touch, or acted like I was touching it when I wasn't.

A few hours later, LCD stripes were all over my phone, and the Back cam started not focusing about a week ago. Now all of these immediate problems have been solved and I am very happy and pleased.
Having a lot of trouble removing screws. Any ideas or help I can get would be great.
Emmitt Kinch We are sorry to hear that you are having this issue with your repair. Please try taking a very small square of duct tape and placing it sticky side down over the screw head. Then use your screwdriver to push through the duct tape and try to remove the screw again. The duct tape should act as a filler that expands into the void of the stripped screw head and the tape's adhesive also helps grip the sides. If this does not work, you can also purchase a screw extraction kit from our online store (shop.icracked.com/collections/tools/products/6-piece-screw-extractor-kit).

This is the best instructional video for iphone 5s screen replacement I've ever seen. Love it. Keep up the good work guys!
Repair was a breeze, the only issue was with the suction cup. I used a command strip and one of those small hooks instead, worked perfectly!
this worked well with my dad's iPhone! I never thought someone like me who hasn't done any major repairs as delicate like this could make it work lol. your instructions was clear and full. thank you so much!
THANK U SO MUCH THIS IS THE BEST
I have changed a lot of iP4,4S,5,5C screens but no 5S screens yet and this is one of the most thorough videos I have ever seen, great job Bro.
ATTENTION: it is important that, when you replace your screen, you make absolutely sure every screw goes back to where it came from; reason being, some screws, even the ones holding down the same panel, are different lengths, ranging from 1.3-1.5 MM. If you mix them up and put a 1.5 where a 1.3 mm screw should be, it will actually damage a micron(?) or other hardware underneath, rendering the phone useless. BE CAREFUL

This video really helped. Some parts were easier than the others but the hardest was getting in some of the screw again. Patience is key
i lost my litle white ambient light filter that went next to the front facing camera is it important?
+John Scogin I too have lost it, i'm assuming you repaired your phone, did not replacing it have any effect?
Me too. I sure hope its not that important. Please let me know
guys, I'm having the same problem. I am assuming it didn't come with the light filter. BTW, let me know if you are having problems.
if you lost it then your rear camera will be super blurry, so you better be more careful after this
the lighting will be terrible

what a beautifully done piece - couldn't ask for better clarity; no steps omitted. Thank you!
Man, you saved my ass. I promissed to my friend to change her display unit, but it was loong way: 5 months take that display to come to me from China, and now I found how complex this piece of junk is. I changed lots of Lumas or Chinesse phones displays, digitizers, other components,but never seen phone like this. So I went along your video step-by-step, for the first time in my life. Big, like a BIG THANK YOU!

Thanks for the detailed video. I just completed the repairs on a iPhone 5s, just take your time. I actually purchased a digital desk lamp from performing previous small electronics repairs, I knew it would help greatly. I also had a small tin can lid to hold the small screws in. a nice uncluttered desk in front of a computer helps a lot! Great video!

Very good instructional video, I was able to repair my son's phone while I ran the video. I have only one suggestion to add. My kit came with a tool kit but it quickly became apparent that it was not complete. I suggest appending the start of the video with a layout of the needed tools.
