Temporary Repair for Cracked Screen

  • Cracked the screen of your iPhone, iPad or Android gadget? You might want to follow my lead with this temporary solution to keep your gadget going until you replace the screen.
    There's really no magical cure, you have to replace the glass or in my case, replace the whole LCD/digitizer/glass as a complete unit.
    In this video, I used contact paper, clear tape and an x-acto to secure the glass so it can't easily break apart any further and to protect my fingers from glass splinters while I use the iPad mini 4.

    I just cried a bit because I just dropped my iPad for the 5000th time and it’s not as bad as the 2 iPad minis I’ve had and broke. When I told my mum, she told to stop carrying it around the house everywhere I go. I was thinking that I could just use tape but this would be much better since I have contact paper, and we can’t afford to get the screen repaired. I’ve always said that I need a screen protector even if it doesn’t do much. I will definitely do this.

    My sister cheap'd out. Her iPod touch screen broke, but like your iPad, she can still use it, touch works. I told her we can just buy a replacement screen and digitizer from aliexpress. But the prices for the screen and digitizers are still expensive. So I just told her to just put a tempered glass over it, since she doesn't really care about the screen only the functionality of the iPod touch which she mainly uses as an mp3 player. The tempered glass is installed and she has no plans of replacing the broken screen.

    • @GadgetAddict
      @GadgetAddict  7 лет назад +3

      I guess that worked out perfectly for her. If she's only using it for music, there's no point spending a lot of money fixing it. It's crazy how expensive the parts are when you consider the original buying price of the gadget!

    • @bigbadspikey
      @bigbadspikey 7 лет назад +1

      similar happened to my sister's phone with dragontrailglass, the price is so ridiculous, she decided not to replace the screen.
      cracks may accumulate dust and dirt and may loosen up more overtime so she slapped a tempered glass over it.

    It's also called 5 second fix or Bondic, I've not tried it myself but it seems to work well for fixing something clear or the outer surface of an object.

    • @GadgetAddict
      @GadgetAddict  7 лет назад

      Thanks for the suggestion. I just checked some youtube vids of people who tried it and it secures the glass but doesn't really fix or hide the cracks. So I guess it's not much different from using the contact paper. Good idea though :)

    • @vgamesx1
      @vgamesx1 7 лет назад

      Yeah, I didn't think it would, but generally speaking, the glass feels nicer than almost anything you'll put over your screen, so I figure covering the cracks would be a better solution to hold you over.
      I know the feeling, though, I bought a used LG G4 with a broken screen, I had planned on fixing it as a new screen was only $30 (similarly the glass is attached to the display) but the seller did not explicitly state that the IMEI was blocked (didn't pay off the phone) and it wasn't worth sending it back so I settled on half my money back, basically I got a G4 for about $30 that isn't worth fixing but otherwise works fine.

    • @vgamesx1
      @vgamesx1 7 лет назад

      I don't know about apple devices, but it highly depends on the type of adhesive used...
      A lot of newer devices use a very hard to remove adhesive and after reapplying it you need to cure it using UV light, so it's usually not going to be a simple 10 minute fix if that's the case and you're going to need proper tools in order to replace it, even then you'll be lucky just to avoid breaking the display forcing you to replace the entire thing anyway.
