my ipad 3 was dropped face down by my toddle on the tile floor!!! If the ipad glass is shattered, this kit should fix it? Everything else still works!

Yes, however you will need a heat gun to release the adhesive that held the original glass in place. Caution glass repair is not easy. You should look at a video on U-Tube before attempting the repair!

There's nothing to indicate Apple has anything to do with it. I'd recommend NOTgoing with this one, I'm pretty sure I ruined my ipad trying to solder it together. If you're really convinced to try the repair yourself, get the more expensive version that has the IC and home button already soldered in place. I don't think anyone but a professional could ever solder the connections needed on this one!

Yes...as long as it's just the screen that is broken. Does the ipad still turn on from the home button? Can you still activate the programs but just can't see because of the broken screen? If so, this will fix your problem. My son repaired mine in about an hour.

That was what happened to me, and it worked perfectly to fix my glass! If the glass is the only thing broken, this is the thing for you.

I cracked my outer glass, used a blow dryer to separate the glass from the LCD screen, then stuck on the new replacement screen. This kit is only for the cracked glass piece. As long as your phone is still touch responsive, it should work.

Last week I lost my iPad in its Zagg case, and someone just returned it to the Verizon store where I bought it. She told them that she found it in her driveway. The Zagg case now has holes and skid marks on it! But the iPad, still inside it, works fine, and the keyboard still works fine! The iPad has a few dings on two edges only. I really can't believe it.

I dropped my IPAD and cracked my screen. I ordered this replacement screen, w/installation tools, and the new glass screen worked perfectly. If you have any patience at all, you can repair your IPAD and save a lot of money.

Yes, extremely. My son dropped his iPad mini on the floor, face down, and not even so much as a scratch.

I actually didn't have a problem fitting my iPad into this case. I remember having to snap it in rather firmly. I did send it back but it was because I didn't like the look of the case fabric/material. I have an iPad 3rd generation - I hope this helps you out some. If it doesn't work just send it on back and maybe a replacement would be better. Also, you can google "fun or functional cases for iPad 3 or 4 (whichever you have)" - you would be amazed at how many cases there are out there. :)

I had a problem with the hairline crack right where the glass and the color meets. It was really hard to see until the light of the iPad screen came back on and then you have to help that at the right angle to see it. This kept it from working in that section of the crack. Otherwise it work perfectly and fit great

I have it on a ipad1 that belongs to my 4 year old...Needless to say she has dropped it endless times in parcking lots or when getting inside the car and nothing wrong had happened, ipad survives after all!

The glass for once is not Gorilla Glass 3 like on the original. I am not even sure it is tempered glass. It will crack after the first drop. Mine did, while being in a good case - slipped from my pocket, fell on wood floor hitting the corner, the screen has a single crack in it. Thankfully the digitizer is still working.

Yes it does protect very well .. my son is 3 and has dropped it down the steps thrown up on it and dropped it on concrete nothing ever happened to ipad or case.. my daughter is 1 and she is not gentle at all with the ipad the case protects from her abuse. Plus if you every have any issues griffin warrenty is great they have replaced the stand for me when it broke case was fine but they shipped me a whole new case and all.. just keep you proof of purchase for warrenty..

Hey I had the same thing happen to me, I had just taken off the rubber protective backing to clean it, and it slipped out of my wet hands (cleaner) and onto hard (practically stone) floor! It shattered mostly at the top.. but it still works perfectly , the camera, mic etc.. all good,! I only bought it 3 months ago, for over 200 bucks, and an apple rep said it would cost over 100 dollars to replace screen~ ! Insane!! I am looking and hopefully have found a clip on set with a hard rubberized clear front, and backing, that will protect it, and hopefully keep it from getting worse! The regular screen protectors will not go on do to "bumpy texture" .... Your post did not say if yours is still working or not, but if it is,, I will let you know if it works.. and you let me know if you get anything out of your warranty. Deal? I hope so! Thanks Kimmy

I don't know. There were some chips on the cable. I don't know what they are for. It was a simple plug in assembly. No soldering required. It works.However, I havr learned that when the iPad glass is broken due to a fall there are other components that are sometimes damaged. My repaired iPad has some intermittent ghost touch problems. Which indicates I have additional damage. It may be best to take your iPad to a repair shop.
