[wescoolya]

@fmaria11 why would you want to, its not a part ment for your iphone and is mis leading.

[RealGoonieKid]

this was really helpful -HOWEVER- it just affirmed my existing worry that im a complete child.. i laughed at "remove the vibrator" <- wtf? that isnt even funny.

[pdaparts]

@fmaria11 Yes you can.

[mrjingaun]

teach me how to just remove the medal bezel from the 3gs? cuz i dropped it and its lift up on the top right corner and i cant use the power button unless i push the top right corner of the medal bezel down. thanks !!!

[kairelusti]

can i follow these directions when replacing iPhone 3G's back housing?

[pdaparts]

@kairelusti Yes but check our other directions for the 3G directions.

[AussiesOutback]

@kairelusti yes



[trinhtanphu]

I thank you for this video

[chineboy359]

is this back case the same back case for 3gs besides the shiny letters at the bottom.

[pdaparts]

@chineboy359 The 3G and 3GS are different when it come to parts going back into them. Different screw holes etc.

[DerekBlankenship1]

Do they come in alternative colors?

[pdaparts]

@DerekBlankenship1 They do but we only carry the original ones.

[stokeben1]

Bloody el!! Why do Apple have to make this so difficult? Same with the battery? Why not make both accessible e.g sliding back case to expose the battery?? Grrr

[umapuma97]

lool, remove the vibrator :P

[TheFEDZONE]

I thank you for this video It's takes a long damn time to put it back together

[TaKiiNqqOVeR]

What happens when the ribbons aren't taking off in order?

[foham1988]

Why do i need to remove everything on the frontside, why i can't just pull the backside out ?

[ebaadbawany786]

great vid but how do i put it all back together??

[pdaparts]

@ebaadbawany786 You can just follow the free video directions in reverse.

[BryanDavis1224]

Great step by step video! What are all the tools needed for this to be done? When in the process of dissembling do i need to separate each set of screws per particular unit of the phone (for example separating screws that hold the mother board vs. the screws that hold down the sim tray? Thanks again for a great explanatory video!

[pdaparts]

@BryanDavis1224 Goto DirectFix com and take a look at the housing that you want and in the detailed description we list all the tools you need.

@Dragon220180 I agree best thing to do is label your screws when you take'em out put'em in different small baggies or pieces of paper
