IPhone 3GS screen cracked

My frind dropped her iPhone 3GS today. The screen cracked but still works. Is there a way to get a new screen yet? If so how much? Bc I know Apple does not cover drops. Or is she better tio buy a new phone? Like my old 3G or my orginal iPhone

Apple will now even replace your screen only, so if your buttons and things are working, no need to get the entire phone replaced. You can also be really, really, reallllly nice to them and they may replace the screen for free. Say that you were shoved and it flew out of your hands or something. They don't have to of course, but since it's a relatively new phone, they may have a little bit of pity

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

    Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
    The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
    But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
    This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

    Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
    My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem.  Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source.  Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all.  In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
    Is there any help for this affliction?

  • My iphone 3GS screen went black

    my iphone 3GS screen randomly went black and it was fully charged... ive tried to hold the buttons down that turn it off, i tried plugging it into the wall and my computer nothing is working the screen is still black

    My wife's phone has done this today.
    16Gb 3GS running 5.1.1 that has been fine up until today.
    It was around 80% charged and running rather slowly today, then it appears to have shut off. The symptoms are:
    - The screen has gone black (as in off, not on but showing a black screen)
    - The mute switch does not make it vibrate.
    - I can call the phone number and it rings, the phone does nothing though.
    - I connect it to my Mac and iPhoto launches, I can import pictures from it OK.
    - iTunes will recognise it eventually, but it will not sync, nor will it restore.
    - Holding the Hold & Home buttons does nothing.
    - I cannot force it into recovery or DFU modes.
    Bit stuck as to what to try next. Still seeing what I can find online.
    It only needed to last until next month!

  • My IPhone 4 screen cracked and cant type my passcode so was not able to complete backup, any advise?

    my IPhone 4 screen cracked and cant type my passcode so was not able to complete backup on ITunes as kept on asking me for passcode! can anyone help please?

    sounds like you won't be able to do a backup.  Hopefully, if you've been using your phone as directed, you've been backing up frequently so you won't have much data loss.

  • Why is my Iphone 3Gs screen appear to be disintegrating?

    Iphone 3Gs screen appears to have burn holes in it and looks like it is disintegrating in a pixelated format.  There appears to be a dark rainbowlike hole in the areas affected.  There are also small pixelated lines that run though areas of the top and bottom of the screen.  We tried turning off the phone for an extended period of time and it seemed to get better but now it the problem has persisted and gotten worse.

    Whether this is due to a defect in the display or damage, there's no way to fix it without replacing the display or entire phone. 
    If the phone is still under warranty or AppleCare, take it to Apple or whoever provides iPhone warranty service in your area.  If out of warranty, Apple can give you an out-of-warranty replacement (refurb) for $199 (in USA).
    Another choice is to take it to a 3rd party iPhone repair center which may be able to fix it for a lot less.  If you know what you're doing, you can buy a new LCD screen and install it yourself.

    Why would you want to pay anyone to crack the screen?  You can easily do that yourself for free. 

  • How much £ dose the iphone 3gs screen cost

    how much £ dose the iphone 3gs screen cost

    At my Apple Store they still will replace the iPhone 3GS front screen assembly for $99 US. In UK it will be a lower number in £. See if your Apple Store does this. At worst you are looking at a perfect Replacement iPhone 3GS for £ 126.44 at UK Apple Store. Make Genius reservation first to avoid long wait.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to press end the call

    why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to end the call

    hi smalley3,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The flickering issue maybe due to a bad LCD cable or in some cases, a faulty GPU (the GPU is integrated to the CPU, and the CPU is soldered to the motherboard).
    If there's still no image on the screen even after connecting an external display then you likely have a bad GPU.
    In this case, I recommend you contact support for service (and also to see if there's a consideration that can be done on the warranty repair).

  • My iphone 3gs screen is blank

    i need help my iphone 3gs screen is blank
    and will not turn on

    i have in the meanwhile come to the understanding that the phone is or needs to be put into "DFU", dfu is the process when you hold the power down for 10 seconds then hold the power and home button down for 15 seconds and then release the power and hold home for 15 seconds, this will reset your device and bring u to the connect to itunes screen.
    TRy that lets see if it works.
    I Still get an error -1 when trying to restore?
    nowhere on the troubleshooting site / error codes?
    Does anyone else know?

  • My iPhone 3gs screen freezes

    my iPhone 3gs screen freezes

    Greetings cheersone,
    From what I can gather from your post, it sounds like your device is frozen or not responding. I have located article which may help you resolve this:
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons
    Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:
    Restart your device.
    If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    BobbyD
