Removing it with your thumbnail could be an option, but it would not be best considering this may lead to scratches on your screen. Here’s and idea: place four pieces of tape on your iPhone with just enough tape on the edges for you to grab onto. After you’ve applied the tape, press down on the tape that is on the shield protector, then after a few moments, pull any first two pieces of tape off of whatever side of the iPhone screen shield you choose to remove first. And there you have it! Your screen shield has been removed, and you can now correctly reapply it. Be careful! You have your own iPhone repair right at your fingertips.

iPhone Water Damage

Did you happen to drop your iPhone in water? Sadly, your company will not cover water damage. The best thing for you to do is leave it to dry out in a cool and dry place. DO NOT attempt to turn it on, plug it in, or press any buttons. Electricity and water cannot combine as it will short circuit the device. Doing so can be hazardous to you as well! Before proceeding, remove the SIM card before attempting to remove the water. It is recommended that you leave it next to fan, or let the water evaporate on its own.

iPhone Screen Repair

If the screen is cracked, there is not much you can do except to replace it. You can probably buy a used one or sell the broken part for a new one. This is possible. Sometimes depending on how bad the crack, your iPhone can still function. The best option with a broken iPhone screen is to get it repaired by a professional.

iPhone Replacement Parts

Also, if any other part of the iPhone is broken and you are sure of what it is, you can always order the parts online, or from any other third party. There are also many repair guides you can follow, to do it yourself. This won’t be as costly as professional repair, and can sometimes be a very fun and challenging experience. No money spent and you have your beloved iPhone back.

Self iPhone repair is often overlooked, because people do not think it will function the same as if they had it professionally repaired, or even replaced. This is not true. As I’ve stated before, it is beneficial because it is less costly and can provide you with a challenge. In addition to that, you will not have to go through the trouble of transferring your data to another iPhone. When repaired, all your data is still on the same device.

Having good research skills to look up a few other tips and tricks couldn’t hurt either. If you are willing to go through this process, most likely you will succeed.

As a owner of an iPhone repair business, I would have to say this is well written and has a lot of valuable information regarding iPhone repair.

Just to chime in on one topic, to repair water damage is completely possible. Listen to what the author states about not turning the device on UNTIL it is completely dry. The actual defects that are caused by water damage originate from the impurities in the water that causes corrosion on the logic board.

At XpressFix.com, we use a ultrasonic machine to completely clean the logic board, then we let it sit and dry once again. This is a high success rate and is strongly recommended if you happen to damage your device due to liquid/water exposure.
