Does anyone know if this is easier then the Iphone 4 to replace?

If you have replaced a screen before it should not be too hard. It took me like 15 minutes to get it done. Make sure you have a hair dryer or something similar to loosen up the screen before trying to separate it from the phone. The tape used to hold the screen to the phone is very strong but if you use some heat it will be a lot easier to get it loosen up. You will need the double sided tape sold on amazon for phone screens. Do not for get to check youtube and watch a video to assist you in the process.

On the 4S the home button will be stuck to glass. You'll need to peel it off and stick it to the replacement glass.

Huh? I'm assuming you have an iphone4? I know that on the iPhone5's you can not just replace the glass, you'll have to buy a whole new digitizer assembly with the glass already on it. Although I've never repaired an iPhone 4

It is no problem taking it out and replacing. I have let several friends try it with their own iPads and I have never had a problem fitting securely when I put mine back in.

Yes. It's the same process as replacing a broken phone. You get the new one and have it put on the line the broken device is currently on.

They should of sent you an email they did to me. They also reminded me in the package that they sent me a email on a video to how to install it. If anything go on YouTube and search up "iPhone 5 digitizer replacement" and follow those steps. Be very careful though that it is not that easy and remember to remember where all the little pieces go there's about 4 or 5 small plastic pieces. you have to be very patience and have time to do thi. Hope this helps!!

Yes. Just press down on the home button (depressed area at bottom of the screen). The 5th Generation is 5 times better than the 4th and worth 5 times more. It has just one problem: short battery life (esp. when loaded up with apps). Apple definitely needs to make that one improvement in the next model. Presently, I get no more than 2 hours. If I could do it again, I would go to the slightly thicker 32GB model, since the battery is likely to be bigger. All models that I own (2nd gen, two 4th gens, and the 5th gen. have proven indestructible and problem-free.

No, with the iphone 4 there is a difference. The parts are either for a GSM (AT&T;/T-Mobile) or CDMA (Verizon/Sprint). They are not interchangeable. With an Iphone 4s the parts are all the same so carrier does not matter. The screw slots on the sides do not line up if you buy the wrong one.

I think so. This is what I got for my iPhone 4S, and it worked great. Just takes a long time if you are replacing it yourself. There are lots of good tutorials on how to do that though. :)

Yes, I have a cracked screen on my ipad 4 too, and I bought this screen to replace it and it worked very good. But the disassembling and assembling are kind of hard. So I suggest you should look up on the youtube to find some video that show you how to disassemble an Ipad 4, if you can do-it-yourself or have an expert to replace the screen for you. Hope this will help.

Not easily. First, you'd have to separate the digitizer from the screen, which is virtually impossible; then you'd have to find someone selling a screen without the digitizer, which is also virtually impossible. There is a reason they come together... I used this kit and couldn't be happier - it's been great. I would recommend getting a high quality replacement home button and doing that at the same time since it's easy while the phone is apart.

As far as my research into this goes- you can not replace the ONLY the glass on an iphone 5S, due to some complication caused by the finger print identification sensor. I've been told this at the Apple store, and by third party repair shops. With that being said, I think you can replace only the glass without replacing the whole digitizer + backlight display component on the 5. This kit does not come with instructions, and the company that sells them doesn't provide instructions either (and from what I gather on youtube it is a very difficult process).

I gave up trying to do it myself and took it into a computer/nintendo shop. They didn't charge me for the glass since I already had it. Ended up being lots cheaper to still have gotten the part myself. I had a friend that fixes iphones a lot, but he said the slim ipod is really easy to mess up trying to change the glass yourself. If you really want to do it yourself I would try and find another video... Sorry!

No it is just the LCD and digitizer, it's not too hard to switch everything over. I'd say difficulty is a 5 out 10

NO. If it was as easy as it looks every professional repair shop would be repairing these phones at a lower cost and making more money. This entire sale is a scam. They know a major percentage of you won't return the kit due to cost and trouble. You really need to use your brain when buying something like this garbage.

Yes comes with everything you need but replacement is really difficult even after watching the youtube video I ended up damaging my phone more. Probably worth having someone do it that has done it a few times.

Yes, either through iTunes or via email is the easiest. Easier going the other way. The person who spoke of iCloud is righ too.
