Definitely one of the best new tools for mobile device repair!

Not only is this tool rugged and very well designed, the small thin edge enables quick access, while reducing the chance of compromising the integrity of the front display. Small enough to fit in a pocket, with no sharp edges, and the non slip grip ensures firm control while completing a repair. A true asset that no serious IT hobbyist should be without in their tool bag!

The replacement screen was great and the tool kit made it easy to repair.  My 13-year old son did it himself.  He just watched the URepair youtube video and followed the steps for a successful iPhone repair!

I am a mom of two small children and it took me about 3 hours to complete the screen replacement. This included taking my daughter to the restroom, feeding my newborn, etc in between the repair. I consider myself to be relatively good at putting things together and I like puzzles. So this was very interesting and a cool experience. The pieces are VERY small, so you have to be VERY careful when unscrewing everything, and follow the instructions carefully so you don't damage anything. The video was great, it was extremely helpful. I don't think I would have been able to do it without the video. There is an instruction layout that you secure to a flat surface that has step by step instructions for the disassembly of the phone and next to each step there are spaces provided for you to place the pieces that are removed from the phone. The only issue I ran into was that there were a few steps from the video that did not go in the same order as the instruction layout so that made things a little confusing for a bit. I was kind of skeptical about this whole thing and ended up being pleasantly surprised that this really worked and the result was fantastic! Brand new screen! Phone works great! Definitely recommend!

I feel sorry for the folks that somehow got a bad set of tools with this item -- the set of tools I got worked perfectly.  Watched a couple of YouTube videos and it was easy to remove the old dock port/cables and install the new one.  Worked just great and phone was back working after charging.  Thanks!

I bought a replacement screen from a competitor and was disappointed in the quality and the haphazard way it was shipped and without the advertised tools that were supposed to come with it. For this reason I paid a little more and bought the ICracked replacement screen for the 5S. I am so happy I did.
The replacement screen shipped quickly in a sturdy cardboard box with all the tools you need for the job as well as the tool to remove and replace your sim card and a cleaning cloth.  There is also a return box and no cost shipping label to send the broken screen to be recycled. The instructions are easy to read with lots of pictures and you can also check their YouTube channel if you want to see it being done.
Another awesome thing is that the screen came with an anti-glare screen protector already installed on the screen, so no fudging with the installation of a screen protector and having to worry about alignment or dust or bubbles under the protective cover. The screen protector seems tough but due to anti-glare it isn't the most clear.  No problem for me as i use my phone outside and in bright light often enough.
The repair takes patience and you must have good dexterity and be able to see and work with very tiny delicate parts. If that is you then the cost saving of DIY is worth it. Follow the instructions and pay close attention to what you are doing and I doubt you will have the problems others have mentioned. Details really matter when repairing electronic equipment.
I also noticed that the ICracked screen had a number of small parts already installed that the other screen I bought did not have. That saved a great deal of time and no need to remove or glue any tiny bits from the broken screen.
I am so glad I was able to repair my phone without much hassle.

So thankful to have gotten this to fix my screen! It had everything I needed and a new screen protector! Urepair's video guide was perfect too. I was able to closely follow along and everything went great! It's working perfectly so far. I'm so excited that I was able to this myself and it was fairly easy with the video. If you're nervous about trying this, don't be! Get it! You'll be so glad to save the money

This item made my iPhone 4 from Verizon look like brand new again! I did break one of the pry tools with extremely light pressure but I was able to use the other one to finish the job. It was definitely a worthwhile purchase and worked great as promised!  Will definitely buy again if I need to replace again, although it was quite tedious work.

Amazon Prime! I highly recommend using this if your serious about smartphone repairs. Only way to go. I tried using the heat gun route but broke several screens. Not good for business. The holders on this machine just get in the way. I removed mine and just use it as a heating plate for phones. The wire to remove the outer glass does work but as the same time when you are trying on a screens that is shattered makes it near impossible. I also tape the shattered phone, take my time and wire still snaps. I've been using playing cards, business cards to separate the outer glass. I purchased the UV light on it's own to save $$$. Their is really no point in buying the full kit for $275. I do recommend buying gloves as the phone will get HOT You don't want to burn your hands. Takes couple of minutes to heat the phone so glue can be removed with whatever your using. I have nothing negative to say about this machine. Great investment if your serious about repairing phones.

After finding my phone out of warranty, I decided to try fixing the charging port myself.  I have never done phone repair before, so I was a little nervous about trying this.  A quick search on youtube turned up some very easy to follow video with instructions - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqCEXEmcj4Y.
If you don't have the right tools, I recommend getting a micro-Philips type screwdriver, pry tool, and pair of tweezers - there are a number of options available on Amazon as a set for phone repair.  Total time to fix was less than 20 minutes including watching the how-to video before I started.  I did find having a strong flashlight helped me see where all the screws went after I was done.
Overall, a very easy repair.

I had been using a cracked iphone for a few month now, and was unaware of the off market repair kits. Saw the kit on amazon when I was looking for a replacement cell phone and figured I would try it out. You do have to spend some time reviewing the material on youtube (found the videos by pdaparts/ifixit best) before you start the process. Some things I learned while I was doing the repair:
-You need to have the right screwdrivers to get the screws out. If possible get one of the cheap kits when you make the purchase on amazon.
-A suction cup works a lot better than trying to pry the lid off
-The labeled cables(numbers 1 and 2) come off easily and when you are putting the unit together you have to be careful that they are secured before you close the lid (first time around, I found out the unit worked great except I couldn't hear anyone - wasn't sure if I had damaged the speaker when I taking the glue lining off. When I opened the unit, found one of the numbered wires was lose)
-Heating the unit to get the glue loose enough to pry the parts apart takes a bit of time and lots of heat. I was initially afraid of the hair dryer melting the parts, but really even at full, I had to keep it close to the unit for a few seconds in order to make any difference to the glue. It really takes a bit of heat - this was the hardest part of the repair.

All in all, the LCD is working great and the phone looks like new again.

I'm new to phone repair but have a few tools from a previous kit given from a friend. The difference in quality is amazing. To make it easier here's what I thought:
The good:
-Very well organized
-good quality
-plenty of different tools to use for every step of the repair
-you can use the lid as a storage for loose parts (but you should probably get something better in the long run)

The bad:
- very small suction cup: it took me a few tries to get the screen up, but with a little patience this suction cup did the job. I would recommend a bigger suction cup to hold up throughout more repairs

Overall I'm thoroughly enjoyed with the kit. I love the screwdriver, which is magnetized. This makes a world of difference which you wouldn't notice unless you are trying to pull out the small screws from a phone without a magnetized screwdriver. I also enjoyed the two sizes of plastic tools for lifting up connections.

Camera was for a Galaxy Note 4. Old camera showed black spots on screen, new camera fixed problem. I'm glad the tools came with it, don't think I could've done the repair without them. They were good quality tools ( except for the tweezers which were a bit flimsy), But no worries I had a better pair. It was my first try at what I considered major cell phone repair. Watched a few different tutorials and used a You Tube video titled Smart easy repair. It was the best of the bunch, Other videos said to separate the screen, (not needed). Anyway took me about 2 hours to do, including replacing the camera glass and giving all the cases a good cleaning, and phone works great. Thanks

This product saved my phone! I dropped my Galaxy Note 4 on the pavement and shattered the external glass protecting the camera. Sticky glue-covered shards were all that was left and my camera lens was completely exposed. Eventually dust crept into the lens and ended up leaving black smudges in all my photos - not cool.

This kit was a 5-10 min install - quick, painless and just what I needed. I followed a tutorial on YouTube titled "Note 4 Camera Glass Lens Replacement EASY FIX!" and it was a breeze. My photo collage speaks volumes! The kit is awesome and comes with a tiny screwdriver and cleaning cloth too. No more dust stuck in my lens and my photos are back to normal - hallelujah!

I went with this replacement screen when I cracked my original, I've also replaced my wifes iPhone 5 screen so I've had some experienece.

Right off the bat, you need to take your time when replacing these. Any one thing can go wrong and thats where I feel a majority of the bad reviews for this product stem - people don't know what they're doing, rush it and cut, crimp, bend, or break something.

You will need to remove things from the original screen like the metal backing, clear plastic camera hole, rubber piece for ear slot, wire mesh for ear slot, grounding tape (attached to original screens metal backing), etc. Any decent youtube video will tell you this. If you want your replaced screen done properly, do this. You will need to add a straight edge blade to your tool arsenal, doesnt need to be sharp but a box cutter blade is ideal for working the screen out of the housing (just above the headphone jack is the place to work the blade in between the housing and the screen). Then use the provided plastic tool to work around the edges to fully remove the screen.

I won't lie, even with experience, after putting my new screen in, I had blue lines show up initially, I went back to the screen connections on the motherboard and rechecked them. After loosening the metal plate a bit the screen worked fine. I tightened it way too tight, drive them in so they're snug, not like they're keeping the wheels from falling off your car. You will also need a work area to keep track of all the little pieces, if you have parts left over you did something wrong. Also, when fitting the screen back into the housing, run your fingers down the side touching the screen and housing, with slight force, do not push on the middle of the screen!

What I didn't know - restart your phone after completion to ensure the finger print reader on the home button works! This thing is very sensitive and any loose connection will botch it. Not realizing this and figuring I did something wrong, I spent way more time then I shouldve troubleshooting... All I needed was a fresh phone restart and finger prints worked like a charm. PROVIDED this was my original home button, that was attached to my original motherboard. IF YOURE REPLACING YOUR ORIGINAL HOME BUTTON FINGER PRINT ID WILL NO LONGER WORK!

This screen worked like a charm for me, and for $30 thats pretty awesome. Becareful, watch a couple youtube videos, and good luck!

I have kept every cell phone that I ever owned. I got out my collection and started trying to take them apart. I quickly realized that they had special screws. I Googled how to take apart cell phones, and special screwdrivers for cell phones.  GNG was the first link that came up.  I have never looked back. From ease of ordering, to speed of shipment, to quality of product; this is the only cell phone kit that you will need. You could start your own cell phone repair business with this. I had an old Nokia flip phone with a dusty screen.  I cleaned the screen, went into the menu, and found an old video of my daughter's first steps!  This one save made the entire purchase worth it.  Get it!
