  • At the end of the video......The 0GB iPod!!!

  • the gold cable are not in there place what shall i do?

  • Now all it does is say what it did before when it didnt work and I plugged it in "Please wait very low battery" do you think it could work again or did I fry the battery? Would all it take is to buy another?

  • Hmmm my audio board cracked I think cause I only got one sound channel so I've been opening the thing up looking at what could be going wrong when I noticed the last time I opened it I ended up pulling out the battery part that plugs into the bottom right over the harddrive. I took a pair of tweezers and I guess I thought it went into the bottom slit opening below the harddrive so when I was trying to fit it in I saw little tiny sparks and then after realized it went in that one port.

  • Can you put it back together if you take the gold things out?

  • why did you open your ipod ????????

  • why not

  • sometimes its really convenient to be able to open your ipod. i've replaced a broken screen and put in a new battery into mine. but you know how it gets frozen sometimes and all you can do is wait for the battery to die and recharge it. well if you can open it, you can just pull out the battery ribbon and put it back in and it'll work like a charm. i can do it with my hand now. more you open it, easier it gets

  • hi!

    somebody can say me what is the second cable ? I know that the first is for the battery but the secondely ?

  • it probably for the back light for the screen

  • @tarata127 i think the one is for the battery and the other going to the haedphones and for the HOLD buttom

  • Made in Philippines!? @2:37

  • Cool, not much in it really. Pretty simple.

  • hahah o got a 30gb ipod and just used a butter knife to take it apart and it worked!!!!! i didnt crack the screen or anything!!!!!! thnx man so much

  • Hey my friend told me that he took out the harddrive and put in a 520GB or somethin like that. IS that like possible? IS there som ething about the apple harddrive that u cant install any other harddrive? PLZ RESPOND

  • hello i have heard that it is possible to put in a bigger harddrive. i knew of some savvy chick who slapped a 60 gig one in place of the 30. ive no idea if it just works straight up or if there is software stuff needed. never heard about a 520 fitting in there, didnt know u could get them that big. theres got to be a website about it somewhere. have fun!

  • this help me fix my ipod..thanks =D

  • He should be a dentist!!

  • hii can someone help me?

    I think i have a problem with the screen, the screen is black, and i hear that my ipod is on from the disk:S..i need some help, how can i fix it??

  • seems like the lcd cable was not put back in properly (if you removed it) its very tricky to put back in. one way i know is you have to line it up with the femail socket, fold it back and use a blunt flat spade shaped or guitar pick blade to force it back in properly. careful not to chip the female connector plastic or bend the pins. thats all the advice i can give on that. cheers

  • that orange cable is the battery i think

  • this helped me fix my ipod, it died on me and then i opened it to see that one of the orange cable things wasn't in its spot somehow

  • so stupid -.-

    did u put all back then

  • damn!!!

  • i like to have an ipod video someday but i do not have guts to do like you did in your ipod. im a filipino but it surprises me that the hardrive inside your ipod is made here in the philippines. well i think you were a great technician. :)

  • I felt sorry for the iPod

  • Why, why!

  • Toshiba Harddrive with apple logo on it?

    Wierd things happen.....

  • Hitachi hard drive in mine.

  • the japanese also put seeds in your other fruits

  • Poor Ipod. ouch.

  • i open my ipod with a the same steps you said and i open it perfectly

  • dude u r awesome having a verse in your info section thats the coolest thing ever

  • The last time I saw glass used in a display, I was looking at a CRT.

    It's just that the plastic used to cover the display is thinner and fragile.

  • ur poem is great i belive in that as well!!!=)

    LOL!!!

    See i know how to rhyme tooo!!!!

  • Hard Drive made by Toshiba????

  • @WorldWideRomance i know hu

  • Hey Phil, is this why I haven't seen you with the ipod in a while now...?

    I think this video would officially void your warranty, by the way. If it wasn't void already, this confirms it (though, you filmed it just over 18 months ago, so chances are, it's out of warranty now anyway).

  • mannnn...i wanted to see u put it back,and den see if it worked.[lol]

  • Why is everyone freaking out? If he wants to open his iPod let him. It's his possession and he probably put it back together. And obviously most of you have one to be crying over the thought of it being opened so it's not like he's taking away one you could have bought.

  • Makes me regret we made the Web usable by ignorant folks... even if that caused the Internet to grow.

    To those people: come back after you stop seeing a simple iPod as some kind of alien technology.

  • lol, i agree

  • the hard-drive is made in the philippines?! damn you, philippines!!!!

  • how do you know that the screen will crack? how many have you opened?

  • Your poem is very nice. And people of all religions need to respect it. People don't realize what Jesus did and how he changed life on earth, and after earth forever. Gandhi was a good man as well, but you cant say he went through extreme torture to save mankind. And even if you are not christian and you believe he was just a mortal man, You should respect the torture he overcame as a "mortal man".

    Btw nice vid :)

  • aussie aussie aussie fuck yeah

  • THanks for that, I needed to get the sand out of mine, I appreciate this soo much!

  • Why was there sand INSIDE your ipod?

  • LOL military shananigans! Prince harry was where I was, ok other side of the province mind you but there was sand!!

  • I'm about to buy the iPod Classic 80gt. Is there some serious problems with it? Please someone who owns this device answer i really wanna know what i am buying ;D

  • i did not know u can crack the screen hmm

  • toshiba weird!

  • he said don't try it you fool!!

    I pity the fool who opens his iPod, except this guy who somewhat knows what he's doing.

  • Dude he didn't wreck it. He just disassembled it lol

  • why would you want to open up and possibly destroy a perfectly good ipod? ipods are for entertainment, not electronic sergery.
