Its a torx screwdriver head :P its nothing special :D

[iFixitYourself]

@therealpro123 In all friendliness, it's not my habit to flat-out tell people they're wrong, but: you're wrong. It's an entirely different screw-type, requiring an entirely different driver. Perhaps it's not "special," but I suppose that depends entirely on your personal qualifications for the word "special." --mj

Will this void the warranty?

[iFixitYourself]

@AlexGyano Only if you break it (further) while replacing the rear panel. --mj

Why should i change the Rear Panel from black to black? wtf?

[iFixitYourself]

@broetchenmampfer Because it's made of glass and can shatter when dropped, just like the front panel. –mj

Wow I really just got a boner watching iPhone how to video.

[MystSync]

My back panel has a spider crack on it and the bottom right side is completely gone. Will this work on mine?

[dancinglittlegirl11]

mine didnt drop but it was accidentally "kicked" and when i turn it on , the screen has a huge black blob on it, and the colors are weird. Will it change that when you switch the back ? It's shattered into the phone i think

[CatapultYourMom]

I don't need my iPhone fixed, but this is pretty good g-rated spank material.
