How to Separate iPhone 4 LCD from Glass by Tech Life

http://www.techlifemobile.net/iphone-4-repair.html Tech Life shows that it is impossible to separate the LCD from the digitizer with the iPhone 4. Do not buy the just digitizer for the iPhone 4 as you will be wasting your money. If you are going to attempt the repair yourself you need the iPhone 4 front assembly which includes both the LCD and the digitizer. The digitizer in the video was given to Tech Life by a customer who had purchased the screen on Ebay and attempted to do the repair himself...
Again DO NOT BUY the digitizer/glass by itself! You will waste your time and money.

So if I were to buy the LCD and digitizer separately and buy the 3M adhesive film stuff they sell on eBay wouldn't I be able to stick the LCD to the digitizer using the 3M film and get it to work properly? I'm asking this because I want to switch my iPhone to mirror blue and the blue digitizer+LCD costs well over $70 and that's simply too much. If i buy these separately though it will cost $30 Thanks

@mendoza1017 You could try but i would not recommend it.

[Kinematographer]

yes you can. Do not remove anything from phone. start with the small pieces of glass, and using just a nail flick them off its actually easy. you need to smash the larger pieces into very small fragments. like less than 5x5mm dont heat it, dont remove it. Then you preserve your hq screen without having to buy cheap chinese copies which will crap out quickly.

@Kinematographer I keep getting responses like this. Please post a video in response to this one of it being done with before and after results. We have about 50+ broken screens with good LCDs laying around the office.

Oh goddamn, why didn't I watch this before ordering the fucking thing?!

[vetyu]

well im a dumb cunt who just bought the LCD screen when i cant even take the old one off

[jojobeans37852]

Fuck you apple, make shit that we can actually fix!!

while you cant remove the lcd from the digitizer, you can still disassemble it. watch my water damage repair video where I show how to do this

[blacksnow90]

thank you sir, you probably saved me 20 bucks. i HATE when videos that show you how to take it all apart but don't tell you that little detail. it would have only taken them 5 seconds to say, "Buy the assembly not just the glass, the two are inseparable" thanks again

@mendoza1017 do not put the adhesive between the LCD and digitizer the best thing to do is to position the LCD on glass after wiping both perfectly clean and trying to keep them in a place without much dust and use super glue around the edges of the LCD careful not to get any under it and don't use too much as to where it sticks up and causes it to not fit together just go around carefully not moving the LCD and seal it completely
