3G iPhone Screen Question...

I just compared my 3G iPhone with my old iPhone and I've noticed that the 3G iPhone has 1mm spacing around the entire LCD screen. Is this a defect or something new for the 2nd gen? Please help...

It doesn't make sense since my old iphone's spacing is less noticable...if it came down to measurements, I think the spacing is about .50...

  • Cracked iPhone screen...questions re replacement

    Ok Ive had my Verizon iPhone since February...yesterday my worst iPhone fear came true...I dropped my iPhone about 4 ft onto cement in 30 degree weather... Over half the screen was really cracked...I have a 32gb so I think vzw charges a $199 deductible...so I found this shop that replaces cracked iPhone screens...he told me the labor itself would only be about $30-40 but then he looked the part price up in his book up to his iPhone 4 CDMA parts guide & mumbles something like "digitizer" & blah blah then tells me the part would cost $150...I asked him what if I brought him the part would he still did it & just charge for labor...he was very nice and said he would do that.
    Then I went online & googled iPhone 4 replacement assemblys & saw them for as low as $25 the I saw some for $55ish but nowhere near $150...is there a legit reason why he would charge this price...is the what an apple OEM screen replacement assembly costs, & I was looking at all non-OEM products? What are the downsides, if any, to replacing the iPhone screen with a non-OEM..are some of the features absent, like the oleophobic coating?
    So I guess my question is what does an "iPhone screen replacement" assembly include? Besides the screen itself  & a "digitizer" (not sure what that is) and how do I know which ones are trash out there & which ones are good? Would you advise any non-OEM product at all?
    Please give me any info you have on screen replacement packages, & possibly where I can purchase one that won't be garbage. Oh & also if it says it is meant for CDMA model...should I assume it is going to be the glossy version?
    Thanks!

    So if I'm clear here you have thus far paid $109.90 for insurance and after paying another $199, for a total of $308.90 Verizon will replace your iPhone? Or, as has already been noted you can pay $149 at an Apple Store and get a replacement with a 90 day warranty.
    I have no idea why in the **** you are paying for that insurance. I would talk to a Verizon rep about it before doing anything.
    when you put it that way, yeah verizon is totally screwing everyone who has iphone insurance with them
    this is right from verizon wireless website:
    soooooooooo laaaammmmeeee.....I love verizon...but this is clearly called "taking advantage of ignorant consumers." When I had a regular ol' phone & even up to my blackberry it was 6.99/mo for the asurion coverage and a $50 deductable if damaged or stolen, which was totally worth it, but this is not that-clearly. gouge gouge gouge....prices ever increasing....& it's only up to the consumer to keep abreast of the price hikes....

  • IPhone Screen Replacement

    Hi.
    I dropped my iPhone on the ground a few months ago and the screen cracked. It's been working fine since then. My brother in the mean time dropped his iPhone in the pool and it has ceased to function at all. My question is: do you think his screen is still in working condition and is it possible to swap the glass/digitizer from his and install it in mine? I'm aware this is a difficult process but I would be up for it. Thanks.
    Bryan

    Well, if the screen works, it's certainly possible. Your phone could be fixed by Apple for $199. His will probably cost a lot more for apple to replace.
    However, you risk completely breaking your phone. Then you'll have problems. Again replacement costs will be much higher than $199.
    Anyway, in actuality, the top half of the iPhone (screen, digitizer, and ear piece) is relatively easy to replace, as long as you do all three at once. One the 3G and 3GS, it's the 2 screws at the bottom and a few cables. iFixit.com has nice guides as well as parts.

    I have an iphone 5. I have no idea of the ios version in it. Recently i broke my iphone screen and its showing up nothing. it was never synced to itunes or to any pc. When i tried to connect iphone to itunes in my pc it was asking for passcode which i had forgotten ages ago. Suggest me the possible ways to recover my iphone.

    Since the screen doesn't work, it will be challenging to get it working, even thru iTunes. You will need to ask yourself if you want to invest more money in it or get a new one, especially since the contents will be lost since you don't know the passcode. Apple will gladly replace the screen for a cost that represents a significant portion of the price of a new. Once the screen is done, you may or may not be eligible for the free iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program.
    Or, if you decide to salvage it and are strong of heart and firm of hand, you can replace the screen yourself for less. See here and note they carry kits with all needed tools and parts.

  • TS3694 I performed an iOS 7 software update on my iPhone yesterday, and now the phone is not working at all. The iPhone screen shows to connect to iTunes to restore. I've have done this, and still the iPhone is not working. What going on?

    I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
    As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
    I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
    As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

    I am at Ramstein AB Germany.  My iphone screen was smashed badly on the flight to Germany this morning.  WHEN I access apple support for this subject it gives me 3 options call now, call me now or call me later.  As I am in Germany with no coverage and no working phone none of those options will work.  Can you get this e-mail to someone who can help.  My iphone serial # is C38xxxxxx. 1) I need to know where and how I can get a replacement somewhere nearby in Germany 2) If 1 is not an option I need to set up an appt to get a to get a new iphone at an apple store in Atlanta GA in the evening of 11 July.
    Thank you very much, Phil Edelen

    Thanks, my wife is the one serving I am retired and trying to follow her as much as I can. 
    I will schedule an appt for my next time stateside.  I have spent too much time on many Apple web sites trying to get an e-mail to communicate with anyone at Apple to no avail, only phone numbers. I guess if you are overseas with no international access you are out of luck communicating with them.  I did find one e-mail address but the reply was computer generated and provided useless links.
    If anyone has any e-mail address for anyone at Apple I would appreciate it.
    Thanks again,
    Phil

    Last night my iphone screen all of a sudden was solid blue and now it is black. I tried turning it on and off.  Still nothing appeared on the screen.  I put it on the charger and this morning it is totally black.  However, when I hit the on and off button, I did hear the text message signal go off. When I turned the volume on and off a big white bell flashed.  In the last week, there were some other display problems such as the screen blowing up large. The only way to fix it was to turn off the phone and then turn it back on. 
    What does all of this mean? It seems like I've had these problems since the iphone 4 upgrade.

    just do reset, press home button and power butoon for a while untill you can see apple
    gud luck

  • How can I get rid of the dark area on top one third of my iphone screen which spoils my background image?

    How can I get rid of the dark area on top one third of my iphone screen which spoils my background image?
    It seems this problem is caused by the software to increase the readibility of upper letters (clock battery etc.) It be nice to leave us the control of choosing background letter color too if we are using brighter images or darker images.
    I'm using iphone 4s and it appeared after I updated to new patch. 7.1.1.

  • How can I capture motion video of my iPhone screen?

    I would like to capture my iPhone screen in action for purposes of demonstrating its usage to others (e.g. How do I create and send a text?). I want to be able to use this in a FinalCut video.

    I don't think there is a supported way to make screen recordings in iOS devices.
    The possible workaround is to use AirPlay and record on a second device.
    There is software for the mac that can turn a mac into an airplay device. You can then use Quicktime Player to make a screen recording and then bring that into FCP X. Also instead of QT Player you may use ScreenFlow or other screen recording software if you have it.
    I can't test right now, but when I get home I plan to make a little test to see how well this in fact works.

  • ITunes 11 how do I arrange apps on iPhone screens from computer? Device tab disappears???

    I just downloaded iTunes 11, and am regretting it. It is super easy to buy new music, apps and vids, but I can't figure out how to get it to display my iPhone screens on the computer.  It will sync, when I plug in my phone via a USB cord, but other than that...what the heck?  I tried to click on my Device tab but the second I do, that tab just disappears.  Nothing changes, I get no screen showing my iPhone screens, no way to move around my apps in iTunes.  What am I missing or doing wrong?  I can go to my Apps tab and see all my apps, in alphabetical order.  I can select them all and update them, etc., etc., but I just can't figure out how to show my iPhone screens while in iTunes. 
    I've searched online and found a How To that shows your phone comes up after you click on the Device tab...but I can't get that Device tab to work.  HELP!  This is driving me nuts and making me feel completely illiterate.

    This is what I done on my Macbook Pro 10.7.5, Using iTune 11.0.1 to Sync with my iPad 2.
    Here you go
    Once iTunes 11.0.1 is up & running
    On the top Left hand side, Click on Apps
    In the Middle of iTunes, Click on iPad or iPhone
    Then on the top right corner, Click on your device icon with the Eject button
    Then you should see you device screen at the bottom were you can start moving around apps or etc.....
    I hope this tip Help

    I have a cracked iPhone 6 screen. I just bought the phone, but not AppleCare. If I get my iphone screen replaced through apple how much do I pay and would it void my one year warranty with Apple?

    To replace your phone's screen costs $109US and I don't see why having Apple replace the screen would void your warranty.
