Hi thanks for the great video, I just removed the digitizer from the "bracket" but I used a screw driver and made a mess of it, I know stupid me :-) I need to get a replacement bracket but don't know the official name for the part as I tried searching iPhone 3G digitizer bracket with no luck, can you tell me what I need to search for please

Many thanks

@MarkbromIerski search for "mid frame" on the iphoneshopusa website. The link is in the video description.

Can the digitizer for the 3g and 3gs be interchangeable? I know the lcds are not, but I haven't tried the digitizer yet.

[leewaterman]

@ExKonoko they are not interchangeable. the cable connections for 3G and 3GS are different.

What brand/model is the mini heat gun? Where can I purchase the mini heat gun?

[leewaterman]

@utubejazzer the heat gun used in the video is a Milwaukee Model 1400

I've heated mine with two different blow driers for like 15 minutes each and the bracket still won't detach from the glass. What should I do?

[section8prime8]

Bought the replacement kit and everything worked well until I reassembled the phone. Screen failed to respond to touch so I thought I'd check the #1 cable. Can't do that. The tape provided wasn't strong enough to hold the screen to the bracket. So now how do I get the phone apart without damaging the digitizer and possibly the LCD?

[cwing88]

@leewaterman Is that model good? Would you recommend that I purchase that one? I don't know what exactly to look for in a heat gun...Thanks!

Awesome video, worked like a charm. I used a hairdryer and had to keep at it for a while, but eventually it all came off. Only problem now is that my home button doesn't work... Oh well.

i did everything butt my phone wont turn on ???? wat should i doo

[drgeeforce1129]

also remember to recalibrate the digitizer

[drgeeforce1129]

when the suction cup doesnt work thats because the cracks let the air in. I solved this problem using 3in packing tape. the tape also prevents the shards from falling out.

@Apagnotta41 if the digitizer is not responding to your touch it could be 1 of 2 things. #1 the cable is not properly seated or #2 the digitizer itself is bad.

[Apagnotta41]

i did this however now it wont respond to my finger how do i fix that?
