    @NamuPhuchi1 We would suggest the LCD with Touch Screen Digitizer. The reason being - the screens are fused together. It is possible to separate them, however it is very difficult and dangerous. For an extra few bucks, we highly suggest ordering the full screen assembly. It will make your repair much more simple.

    @BLACKBOYstudios Sounds like a replacement LCD screen would be needed. The Nano 6th uses a screen assembly however, which we suggest replacing as the touch screen and LCD screen are fused together.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @USAWres222 Thanks for your kind comments. We hope to have these screens back in stock in 1-2 weeks.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @MrBoobiesLove Is the button stuck or not pressing properly? You may be able to disassembly and un-stick the button from the inside. This is a fairly simple way to diagnose the issue.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    This could be an issue with the LCD part of the device. Please check the LCD flex cable for damages such as a tear or pinches. Make sure all connections are secure.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    You can open the device to make adjustments to the button and to asses the issue. What makes a clicking sound? The buttons or the screen?

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @chokeonrocks Will the button physically press down or is it stuck? This is normally a very simple fix. Just heat the screen assembly, remove the screen and internal panel, from there you should have access to the volume buttons. They can either be removed or cleaned on the inside and outside. Q-Tips and a very small bit of alcohol work best.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @USAWres222 Because they are fused together we recommend the full screen replacement. It is easier to install.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    I would suggest attempting to re-calibrate the screen. If this can not be done, then a hard reset may help. Even possible that disassembling the device and disconnecting the touch screen flex and re connecting it may help.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  14 лет назад

    @anubisswift No problem. Glad we could help. Its pretty easy to open once you know how.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @MrQbeezy It depends on the cause of the white screen. It can either be an issue with the motherboard, or LCD screen. If iTunes recognizes the iPod, then it is likely that the LCD screen is faulty, and when replaced, the white screen will be repaired. If it is not recognized, the motherboard is likely at fault.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    Correct. You will have access to the buttons once the device is opened and taken apart.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @MrBoobiesLove No problem at all. It is always worth a try. It depends on if the button/flex cable is physically damaged or if it is just stuck. If it is stuck you can use a Q-tip with a small bit of alcohol to clean the area (stay away from flex cables and electronics though).

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @BaneWolf21 You will need to remove the screen, etc, to be able to remove the button and realign, clean, etc.
    Does the button feel sticky, or just "locked" in a down position?
    If it is just really sticky you can attempt to clean from the outside, but normally you will need to access the button from the inside.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @BaneWolf21 Normally this is just caused by a bad alignment, damaged button, or the button just needing a cleaning. I would suggest following this guide and cleaning the button with a Q-Tip with a small bit of alcohol.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @2000ursul If you are patient you can remove the digitizer from the LCD screen without damage, however this is a risk we prefer not to take with our repairs. The assembly is much quicker to install.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @mrmeat2222 Possible other pry tools can be guitar picks, small flat head screwdrivers, etc. Safe pry tools can sometimes be found at local repair shops as well.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @kalifire Heating normally only takes 30-60 seconds. It is better to heat it more often than to do extreme heat all at once.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    Is the button sticky or is it not aligning properly? Are you able to press the button?

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @MerrildRene Is the device recognized by iTunes if plugged into a computer? If it does not connect, then there has likely been damage to the motherboard and it will need to be replaced. If it is recognized, it may be worth taking the device apart and just checking out the area around the power button, just to see if there is anything easy to spot that can be causing the issue.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    using heat and a prytool, you can loosen the adhesive and separate the screens.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    You will need to open the device. You can use this video as a reference to get access to the home button. Once you get to it you will be able to clear it from debris or find out what is causing this jam.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    You will need to take the device apart. Following this video is the best way to go.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @fridayman123 I would disassemble and attempt to figure out why the button is not clicking, possibly you may be able to dislodge from the inside.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @NamuPhuchi1 I am unsure if other vendors are available in England, however RepairsUniverse does ship internationally.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @1Pueblito Tee screen with 2 connections is the combined LCD + Touch screen digitizer.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @ENERGYSMYNAME Yes, that is the same situation. I would suggest trying to clean the outside of the button with a Q-tip and a small bit of alcohol. We are sorry, but we have many videos lined up to do currently and do not have time to show this any better than it has already been explained.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @MrBoobiesLove Good luck when you do. Honestly it is likely something simple. We take these apart all the time without an issue. This guide is exactly what we do, so if you heat it properly and do as instructed you should be able to diagnose the issue.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @jdmbeaner182 You should be able to disassemble and dislodge it from the inside. You may want to (carefully) us a small flat head screwdriver to do this.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @Moa991 Likely you ordered only the touch screen digitizer or only the LCD screen. The issue with this is Apple fuses together the two screens, making removing one a bit of a pain. This is why we always suggest the touch screen / LCD assembly available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com. It is a much simpler repair.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @bullletrium780 No problem at all. The screws have 4 sides, a "+". Very common screw in Apple devices. Small phillips, size "00".

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @SoStuckUp12 The glass (outer) touch screen is also referred to as the "digitizer". If you mean the LCD screen, it is possible, but not suggested. The touch screen and LCD screen are fused together and are very difficult to separate without causing damage to the other screen. We suggest replacing the screen assembly, it is much simpler and safer. These are available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @Dyter1 Sounds like a LCD issue. Replacing the screen assembly would be suggested - This is because the touch screen digitizer and LCD screen are fused together and attempting to remove only one screen normally results in damage. The screen assembly is a very simple replacement. These can be found at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  11 лет назад

    Be sure all of the internal connections are securely in place. Often times during a repair components can become loosened or dislodged.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @PlayLoud1000 Yes, new adhesive will be required as all the old adhesive will likely come off with the old screen assembly.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @LONGxLIVExTHExSTANG Check the tools section. These are the adhesive strips to use for the nano 6th.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  14 лет назад

    @MrAndrewjs The screen is glass. How can it peel off? Is it a screen protector or something you have on the glass that is peeling off?

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    You can separate the screens using heat to loosen the adhesive.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    You can open the device to clear out debris around this area if any. You may need a new button.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    This is the touch screen digitizer. With this device the LCD and the touch screen digitizer are fused. We suggest replacing the fused part which is located on our site at RepairsUniverse (dot) com

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    Have the 2 screens come apart? They must stay sealed together.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @BLACKBOYstudios Normally this is caused by a bad connection from the LCD screen to the motherboard, or a damaged LCD screen. Does the device have any history - such as water damage, recent major drops, previous repairs, etc.?

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    Yes, this is an issue with the LCD but the internal display(LCD) and the external glass (touch screen digitizer) are fused together. I suggest replacing the fused screen which is available on our site at RepairsUniverse (dot) com

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @theowbert If the iPod is detected by iTunes, that is a very good sign that it is only a display issue. I would suggest replacing the LCD + Touch screen digitizer assembly available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com. The reasoning for the assembly is that the LCD screen and digitizer are fused together, making it very difficult to replace only the LCD screen without damaging the touch screen digitizer. Tool wise you will only need adhesive strips and a small phillips screwdriver.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    This can be caused by damage or if a repair was done incorrectly. If there is no display but connects just fine to other devices then this is a LCD issue.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @OnOffRebootMe It is possible it is water damaged. I would connect it to a computer and see if it is detected by iTunes. If it does, then the motherboard is likely working fine and is likely a screen issue. If it is not detected, it is likely the motherboard is fried and it would be considered "totaled".

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @JediMark05 We did notice this as well, the Nano 6th seems surprisingly reliable.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @Shahrul1313 You can use this guide here to replace the screen. The Nano 6th Gen uses a screen assembly with the LCD and touch screen digitizer fused together, making just replacing a single screen (either glass touch screen or the LCD screen) very difficult. We suggest replacing the full screen assembly which is a much simpler repair. These are available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    I would suggest replacing the touch screen digitizer. The Nano 6th gen's touch screen and display LCD are fused together however, making just replacing the digitizer very difficult. I would suggest swapping the full screen assembly. These are available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

  • @deanneadamson6844
    @deanneadamson6844 11 лет назад

    This worked awesome. I was somewhat skeptical but I am thrilled to have the option to fix my own nano. Thanks so much for taking the time to post this video. Hated the idea of paying Apple $90 for a replacement refurbished 6th gen iPod nano.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    You can attempt it with a small flat head but it could be a motherboard issue if it does not work.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    The device has a fused LCD+touch screen digitizer so we recommend replacing it with a fused part as well or it can get tricky.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @MegaMajorMario We suggest you replace the full screen assembly (LCD display and glass touch screen digitizer) as Apple has fused together these screens making it very difficult to separate them without damaging the other screen. A full screen replacement will resolve the issue. These are available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @BaneWolf21 Likely going from the inside will be the only way to get the issue resolved. Follow this video until you have full access to this button and its flex cable.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    You may need to open the device to clear it from any debris causing the button to be stuck.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @cpslomatt No problem at all! Glad you found it useful.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa

    You will need to open the device to adjust the button or replace it.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  14 лет назад

    @drewbykinsey Sounds like the LCD screen is damaged. A replacement should fix this issue.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @MrBoobiesLove Take it slow and heat it up pretty good, you shouldn't run into any issues. Let us know if you run into any issues.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    This sounds like an issue with the LCD. Both screens are fused together so we suggest replacing the same fused piece. We have this available on our site at RepairsUniverse (dot) com

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    It is this video in reverse. from 2:29 you can slowly rewind this video to assist you.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @Solracian The full screen assembly is suggested, and these are available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  12 лет назад

    Yes, you just need the screen replacement and the tools.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa

    @hakedsup How did this start? Any water damage, fall etc?

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @Chis100970 PLEASE NOTE: the touch screen and LCD screen are fused together and therefore, quite difficult to remove without damaging the other screen. The item on eBay is likely just the LCD screen or touch screen. This repair can be done, but is fairly difficult. We highly suggest the screen assembly, which removes the entire process of separating the screens. These are available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @MrSlaytamer Yes, this just sounds like the LCD (backlight) has stopped functioning. Replacing the screen assembly will resolve the issue. These are available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @colingawellover1 We suggest you replace the full screen assembly (LCD display and glass touch screen digitizer) as Apple has fused together these screens making it very difficult to separate them without damaging the other screen.

    @EointheGuy101 If the device itself is working properly then it is likely you will just need a screen replacement. The Nano 6th gen has the touch screen and LCD screen fused together. I would suggest replacing the full screen assembly. This will make the repair much more simple. These can be found at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

    Hi, my glass has cracked, but the LCD is fine. Touch functions are still fine.. Can I just buy a touch screen / glass (i assume that's the digitizer as well?) without replacing the LCD?
    Will I have to stick the LCD and the glass together myself?
    Thanks a million!

  • @Repairsuniverseusa

    My Ipod nano 6g ended in the laundry machine by accident. The Ipod didn't work anymore and I put it in a bag of rice to dry. After 4 weeks I connected the Ipod to the computer and I-tunes recognized it. I put some earplugs with a play/stop and volume buttons in and the Ipod worked. But the screen doesn't work. If I just replace the screen, would the Ipod just work as normal? Or is there something wrong on the inside maybe?
    Thanks

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @PauChiChiBang No problem at all, glad you found the video helpful! If it is not sticking properly it is likely just an issue with the adhesive. I would suggest applying some new adhesive, the adhesive strips available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com have found to be the most effective.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @1Pueblito Digitizer is basically the glass with the touch screen. The glass has the touch screen fused to it.

  • @Repairsuniverseusa
    @Repairsuniverseusa  13 лет назад

    @gvitalie420 Just because the part is small does not mean it is less expensive to manufacture. In fact, in many cases it is the opposite. Also, many models Apple has produced lately has the LCD screen and touch screen fused together, making it very difficult to replace only the outer touch screen or the inner LCD screen.
