Replace shattered iPhone 5 screen

My screen shattered.  I was told by AppleCare that some stores can replace just the screen, but they don't have a list of those stores. I've called several of the Los Angeles stores and each of them has told me I have to buy a new phone, and that AppleCare doesn't know what it's talking about.  Does anyone know the true story?

"I was told by AppleCare that some stores can replace just the screen,"
I cannot vouch for what you were told, but I can tell you that's false information.  However, as Peter posted, Apple will do an iPhone 5 out-of-warranty exchange for $229 + tax + shipping.

  • Can I replace an iphone 5 screen that is slightly scratched?

    Is there any way for me to replace an iphone 5 screen? 

    Apple does not repair iPhones, but will replace the entire iPhone for a flat fee. If you have AppleCare+ coverage, the cost will low; in the US it's $49. If you do not have AppleCare+ on your iPhone, see the Service Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/
    There are independent iPhone repair services that may be able to do the repair for less than Apple's out-of-warranty charge. Do a web search for "iPhone repair". Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPhone serviced by an unauthorized shop, all further warranty and support from Apple will be voided.

    No.
    You would have to send your iphone to someone you know in Canada, then that person would have to get the iphone to Apple.
    Apple will not accept a shipment from outside the country.

  • Shattered iphone 5 screen

    hi all, i recently dropped my iphone 5 and shattered the front glass screen, the touch screen is still working normally but i am concerned as the glass is so badly damaged that it is starting to lose small pieces of the glass. Unfortunatly i do not have the phone insured as it was quite expensive when i aquired it and planned to get it insured later.
    Can i get the screen fixed for a reasonable price as everywhere i have looked seem to be charging around £200. This price is way too expensive for me to manage but i am worried if it is not fixed soon the phone will break completely as the screen is losing glass.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance

    At Apple Store perfect replacement iPhone 5 exactly like yours, same color, same GB is £ 186. Not cheap, but it is fairly quick, few minutes if you make Genius reservation, and keeps your original Warranty in place. If you purchased AppleCare + Plus then it would be much cheaper.

  • I want to replace my iPhone 4 screen but apple store will only exchange for £119

    I want to replace the screen of my iPhone 4. The Apple store in Bristol will only replace the entire Phone for £119. Any suggestions? I could do it myself but I'm not sure about using non OEM replacement screens.

    You can look for 3rd party repair shops, but they will also be using non OEM parts.

  • Will apple replace my iphones broken screen, will apple replace my iphones broken screen

    Will apple replace or repair my iphones broken screen

    Apple will offer an "out of warranty" replacement phone for about 50% of the cost of the phone, unless you purchased AppleCare+ whenyou purchased your phone, which would entitle you to a replacement for $49 (if your phone is still covered under that warranty).  Otherwise, Apple does not replace broken screens.

  • What do i do if while replacing my iphone 4s screen i lost one of the screws on the inside near the camera? am i okay without that screw or what should i do?

    I was replacing my cracked screen on my iphone 4s and while unscrewing one of the screws it fell out and i cant find it. It was the upper screw near the camera on the EFM shield and antenna clip. I was wanting to know whether i would be okay without that screw or what i should do?

    A couple of things I would suggest. If you have a friend with a broken iPhone of the same type, they might be willing to let you take it apart to get the missing screw. Or, if you bought the replacement screen from one of the reputable online sources (as opposed to some fly-by-night ebay vendor), then you might want to contact them and see if they will sell you the single screw for some minimal price.

  • Shattered iPhone 5 screen with insurance.

    I purchased the 1 time 100 dollar fee insurance when I bought the phone. The lock button started to act up and a few days later I shattered the screen and the lock button rarely works. How does it work when I go to get this fixed? Is it just a new screen or the whole phone?  ( I will be purchasing an otter box afterward)

    The iPhone will be exchanged and if you are referring to AppleCare plus, there will be a $50 deductible.

  • Worst luck . . . Shattered iPhone 4s Screen

    I recieved my iPhone 4s in January 2012. In may the speaker started acting funny, so I recieved a refurbished phone, free of charge because I was still under warranty. When this occured I was notified that this means my one-year warranty was restarted, so the one year began with the new refurbished phone.
    Today has been one of those days you just want to curl up and go to bed. So off to a rough start in the morning, I was running a little late to my Physics Lecture because I was preparing for an interview immediately afterwards. By the time I got there, all the middle section front seats were taken, which is where I usually sit. Therefore, since I didn't bring my glasses, my next best option was to sit as close as possible, which led me to the left most area that unfortunately has a drop infront of the first row.
    A few minutes before class was to begin a girl wanted to sit in the row I was in, which is a very small space. So she wouldn't have to squeeze through, I got up and let her in. Then her friend came and I did the same thing. Then they decided they would rather sit in the top row of the middle sections. Once again, I got up and as they were trying to get out, smash, and my iphone is laying face down a few feet below where I'm standing. All I got was a "that *****".
    So yes, I do typically have the worst luck possible.
    I am a college student, I have practically no money. Any suggestions on what I can do?
    Thank you.

    You can take it to an Apple store and they will exchange for an out of warranty
