Broken Screen - What is the cheapest option??

Ok - A friend bought a 3G last spring - at a supplemented price... Within about 1 month he got it wet and ruined it... so he bought another at full price. Now he has broken the screen...
What are his options - I have seen $250 for screen replace - but what is the full cost of the 3g now?
Any ideas for the cheapest way out??

I'm not sure about the cheapest option but if your friend is in the U.S., Apple offers an out of warranty or not covered under the warranty "repair" price, which pays for an exchange at a discounted price off the full retail/non-subsidized sales price. The cost is $199 plus tax and does not require signing a new two year contract with AT&T.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5G. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                                    
    A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

    Replace the screen yourself if you are up to it

    The entire screen assembly is one using, you can't replace only the glass.

What is the cheapest way to get it fixed or can i fix it myself without any money? I also didnt have the chance to back up my data because it went black screen out of now where.

    If your phone is not covered by the warranty anymore, Apple will replace it for a new device, same model and size, if you are willing to pay the service fee.
    If you decide to get a 3rd party company to do the repair, Apple will not service your phone anymore after that.
    Out-of-warranty repair service
    If your repair isn’t covered by Apple’s One Year Limited Warranty, AppleCare+, or AppleCare Protection Plan, your iPhone might be eligible for out-of-warranty service. For example, liquid damage isn’t covered by warranty but might be eligible for out-of-warranty service. Some damage isn’t eligible at all, for example if your device has been broken into multiple pieces. See Apple’s Repair Terms and Conditions for complete details.

  • I dropped my ipod in the pool and put it in rice for three days and now the screen stays white. what is the cheapest way to fix my ipod?

    i dropped my ipod in the pool and put it in rice for three days and the screen just stays white now. what is the cheapest way to fix thiss?

    There are companies that specialize in data retrieval but it's costly (probably cheaper to buy a new iPod) and more than likely as Allan said, your circuits are probably damaged beyond all hope of retrieving anything. It's worth calling Apple you maybe able to get a discount or a refurbished iPod. Can't hurt to ask, Good luck. (And in the future... no texting in the john.) Sorry, couldn't resist it.

  • What is the cheapest phone option

    what is the cheapest phone option
    2 users in family
    no data plan

    Thanks, that is helpful.
    If right now, we have one 3G iPad2, and are at the end of our smartphone contract, are we better off getting two tablets with data plans and bare-bones telephones for emergencies?
    Our mobile voice is sooo low in terms of usage.  I feel there has to be a contract plan + hardware sweet spot I can't appreciate yet.
    Any thoughts of going data plan heavy + two emergency phones?  Should go prepaid, or other?
    Thanks again.

    Will it work with a 128gb sdxc card?
    Thanks, in advance for your help!

    The card should work, just check and know the limitations if the SDXC card is formatted with a different file format. You also have to the option to change that format using Disk Utility.

  • I have Logic Pro 8.0.2 and would like to upgrade. I'm running OS Lion on a 2010 MacB Pro. What is the best option? Logic Pro 9 App or Logic Studio? Can't find upgrade price. Or should I just stay with Logic 8?

    I have Logic Pro 8.0.2 and would like to upgrade. I'm running OS Lion on a 2010 MacB Pro. What is the best option? Logic Pro 9 App or Logic Studio? Can't find upgrade price. Or should I just stay with Logic 8?

    Same here, I have Logic Studio 8 and wouldn't mind staying with that version, except that the installer won't run on my new Macbook Pro as PowerPC apps are no longer supported. That's the message I get in any case.
    I use to run Logic on a 2006 Macbook Pro.
    I guess that makes me a very unhappy Apple user! I've been using Logic from the Emagic days, bought every upgrade only to see Apple kill what used to be one of the best Pro Audio application. Imagine if they had done the same to Photoshop, there would be a lot of unhappy designers out there
    Paying the full price for years to slowly see your daily app go down in price & efficiency until it's given away at $199 for semi pro users. Well, at least ProTools is stil alive & kicking so I guess that's the way forward now.
    This is coming from someone that never ever used a Windows machine to make music! Life is good still!

  • What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

    What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

    #1. Understand that if you switch carriers, you can NOT take your existing iPhone with you. It won't work. You will need to purchase a new one.
    #2. Your only choices are Sprint and Verizon. Decide who has the better coverage in your area. Keep in mind that you will NOT be able to get simultaneous voice and 3G data on either of these, as their CDMA networks do not support it. The U.S. T-Mobile network is not supported and is not fully compatible with the iPhone as it operates on a rarely used frequency compared to the rest of the world.
    #3. What in the world are "niners"? Do you mean you want to be able to keep your existing "phone numbers"? If so, that should be no problem. Most numbers in the US are now portable.
    #4. Consider WHY you want to switch. If the issue is really price, you're not going to see much of a difference. A few dollars a month at best for comparable voice and data plans.

  • What is the -k option for of the Ping utility in OS X?

      Hi,
    May I know what is the -k option for of the Ping utility in OS X? It doesn't seem to be a ICMP protocol standards-relates.
    Below is the description of this option copied from Yosemite.
    -k trafficlass
                 Specifies the traffic class to use for sending ICMP packets.  The
                 supported traffic classes are BK_SYS, BK, BE, RD, OAM, AV, RV,
                 VI, VO and CTL.  By default ping uses the control traffic class
                 (CTL).
    Thank you!

    These are low-level bits defined in the kernel's IPv6 support code.
    Here is the first reference I could find that actually says what some of them are: https://github.com/darwin-on-arm/xnu/blob/master/bsd/sys/kpi_mbuf.h

  • What is the best option to get a wireless connection please?

    Hi, I have a 1.6 GHz G5 with Tiger (soon to install Leopard).
    I currently have broadband through an ethernet cable but I want to set up wireless. My understanding so far is that I need either an airport card or an external device such as airport express (in the system profiler it says no info found under AirPort card).
    Can someone please tell me if I am correct and if so, what is the best option to buy for my G5 model?
    Thanks very much
    Adam

    BD, I declare an interest!
    Look here if you would:  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4229088?tstart=60
    I like the look of the one in your third link, but the only similar one I can find in the UK is this:

    but it comes with a 3 inch CD which is utterly useless to me!
    If you can confirm that the MXP2802GU2 will work for me I will buy that!
