How come everyone else says that this came with the tools to change the glass, but when I received mine today-no tools? Where's my tools?

No tools with mine either but I didn't need them as I have my won. I'm stoked that for $15 this screen looks and works like the original and I didn't have to wait long time for delivery from China or Hong Kong. Bummer for you though.

Our package came with tools but the tools were so small to hold we used regular tools we had. The youtube video we followed showed him using regular tools also. You will also need a hair dryer or something else to melt the glue on the inside. Find a good how to youtube video and good luck!

It doesn't actually come with tools. The picture indicates that it will have tools with it, but it doesn't actually come with the tools.

Yes, it comes with the glass screen. The reason I ordered this was because my son shattered the glass screen as well. And it also includes the little tools for you to replace the screen with!

I received one with the speaker mesh and one without, so it's a toss-up? The old one is very easy to remove and replace on the new display. Use a small flat-head screwdriver to lift the gray/black tape that holds the screen in. You can remove both gently. Apply them to the new screen. The outer glass is definitely included. Replacing these screens alone (no outer glass) is impossible because the screen is glued very hard to the glass. Separating the two is impossible. The glass I received seems to be the same thickness as the original glass, but I wouldn't test to see if it holds up to stresses as well :-) I received one with the speaker mesh and one without, so it's a toss-up?

Tools didn't come with mine. I used a Phillips screwdriver, a crescent wrench, a 10mm socket and a 6mm allen wrench

It does come with tools but no directions. If you have never replaced the screen on these I would definitely advise having a professional do it. The connectors and the LCD are very sensitive.

Yes. The glass and adhesive stuff came with it. But no instructions. You will have to you tube the directions.

No , the tools do not come with it . However you only need a small screwdiver , like the ones to repair eyeglasses. And it could be useful to have a small plastic palette to slide unde the frame to open it without damaging it. You do not need glue. Look in the internet for a youtube video explaining how to change the touch screen on your phone brand/model . It is very easy to do in just 5 minutes .

I didn't get any instructions with the porduct on how to replace the glass. I got the information and know how by looking at videos of the process on you tube. After watching a couple of videos I realized that the most difficult part was removing all the glue from the previous glass . I managed to change the glass and was pleased with the outcome, however I had some difficulty getting the replaced glass to remain stuck on the phone. I eventually brought from amazon some micro 2 sided tape that I placed on the complete edge of the replaced glass and that did the trick. Good luck.

Yes, I can't remember the exact tools mine came with, but they do come with it!

Just the glass . the glass is held with tape on the edges only . If you heat it good and your careful that you don't rip the tape you can put the new glass on the old tape ,wear rubber gloves so you don't get the tape dirty Or you need to buy the tape. which is like 1/16 of an inch. Good Luck.

I gave up trying to do it myself and took it into a computer/nintendo shop. They didn't charge me for the glass since I already had it. Ended up being lots cheaper to still have gotten the part myself. I had a friend that fixes iphones a lot, but he said the slim ipod is really easy to mess up trying to change the glass yourself. If you really want to do it yourself I would try and find another video... Sorry!

Hilarious, I just broke the glass and was going to go see if there was glass tubing available... Hopefully we will both find out soon. Good luck.

generally It doesn't come with the Glass. U have to buy it seperately untill unless the manufacturer of glass specifically mention the tape.

Yes mine came with tools, but you can easily strip one, so it was nice to have the extra kit and it was cheap.

Replacing the glass really does take a heat gun. Being overly cautious, I used a hair dryer on a low setting and this took forever. Patience is the key to separate the glass from the video panel. Obviously, I didn't have patience this day so I ended up breaking the panel as well (thankfully I had insurance). There are video's on YouTube that explain the whole process. Can it be done - YES! Is lots of patience required - YES! If the screen in my replacement phone goes again, I have a little more confidence to do this once more.

No I bought tools separately. Careful with the tool kits: all I ended up needing was a very small phillips head. The suction cup was not powerful enough to get my screen off, I ended up using a very thin paint spreader to insert right near the home button and levered the screen off (carefully!).
