My iPhone screen is broken, now what?

You are excited about the new iPhone that is scheduled for release and you forego your comfortable bed the night before to stand in line in front of the Apple Store. You finally get to the counter and with a big yawn, choose the last gold 256GB model they have in stock. You’re tired but you did it! It’s very stylish so you don’t really want to cover it up and even if you know that you should take precautions, you’re not enthusiastic about spending big bucks on an OtterBox protective case. It’s brand new, impact and water-resistant! What could possibly happen to it, right? You get it out of the box and are about to try out your new 12MP camera when it slips out of your hand and falls to the concrete below. You pick up your precious iPhone to discover both a cracked screen and a broken heart. Now what?

You also weren’t enthusiastic about paying for expensive insurance and even if you did bite the bullet, you now have a high deductible to pay, possibly a long delay and at the very least a big hassle on your hands! There is another solution; instead of getting a new iPhone, consider replacing the screen.

As an experienced cell phone and computer user, you may find yourself to be tech-savvy, but replacing the screen yourself can be a very daunting affair (see also: Do-it-Yourself Smartphone Repair Part 1: CAN I Repair My Own Cell Phone?). Here are some good reasons to let the experts at MobileREMEDIES® handle your iPhone Repair.

Tools and Equipment
Unless you have an electronic repair shop of your own, you probably don’t have all of the right tools needed for this type of Cell Phone Repair. Getting the right tools and equipment is not always expensive, but knowing which ones and foreseeing the unexpected can be a big challenge (see: Do-it-Yourself Smartphone Repair Part 2: SHOULD I Repair My Own Cell Phone?, also fromMobileREMEDIES®). If you do succeed in getting all the tools together, unless you take a shine to the repair process, you may never need them or use them again!

Installing the Correct Part
Once you have the right tools and equipment, you need the right replacement part. If you purchase one that is not fully compatible or if you make the wrong connections to the Cell Phone you may burn out the touchscreen. If you apply too much physical force to the screen when pushing it back into the housing, you may crack it again. This could end up being way more costly than just letting the experts at MobileREMEDIES® handle your Cell Phone Repair.

Following Questionable Instructions
Another major challenge comes when following the guidance of an amateur on YouTube or from some DIY repair website. Sometimes these people are reporting their personal experience with ONE phone and they may be completely unaware of the many common mistakes that could cause damage to other components of your cell phone. If you damage your motherboard or a fragile flex cable during your repair, your new touchscreen may be of little value! Nothing replaces experience and the professionals at MobileREMEDIES® have done the repair many times and in many circumstances.

The Time Factor
How much time do you want to be without your iPhone? Chances are your answer is: “I need my smartphone to work right now! Ordering parts and tools, waiting for their delivery, and doing all the research needed to accomplish the repair will take time – at least several days. At MobileREMEDIES®, most screen replacements can be done while you wait or run a short errand! There is something to be said for walking into a repair center, paying less than your insurance deductible and walking out with a new screen, often in less than an hour!

In addition to repairing all brands of cell phones, smartphones and tablet computers, MobileREMEDIES® Cellphone/Electronic Repair, with locations on Maui and Oahu, fixes many other portable electronic devices including laptops, iPods/MP3 players and game systems (such as Xbox, PlayStations, Wii etc.), and they know your devices inside and out. They are experts in data recovery and they pride themselves on being problem solvers. They can often suggest several potential solutions and you can choose the one that suits your needs best. They always give you a 1-year warranty on parts and service for any repaired device and honor it without you having to produce a receipt. The professionals at MobileREMEDIES® also build custom computers for high-demand users, provide web services for individuals and small businesses, buy broken devices for cash or in-store credit and sell refurbished devices with a 1-year warranty, similar to a manufacturer’s warranty on a new device. If they can’t fix your device, you pay nothing for the attempt.
