How to open up your iphone

Posted: 8 January 2008   tags: , , ,

After my iphone screen was broken I researched How to open up your iphone.
You can fix the Iphone screen yourself by getting the right tools and take some time to do it. The screen can be quite hard to come by but it is a lot cheaper than getting it repaired with Apple.
I wanted to fix the iphone screen as soon as possible to start using my Iphone again.

Update:
This is the best video I could find how to open up your iphone

You need a flash player to see this movie.

Yesterday I got an iphone opener tool and tried to undo the back casing. The ipod opener tools that I had where quite soft so they broke, a hard plastic iphone opener tool opened it up though.

Well I got the phone open and the touch sensor or digitizer seems broken for some reason. Time to order a new screen and replace it and hope that it will fix the iphone.

Some images I took while I opened it up.

bottom cover removed Tape of the back cover Iphone Back cover removed The whole lot again

Watch the video for full instructions on how to open up the iphone.

    Hey Atiya,

    The opener can be found on ebay for a couple of dollars.
    Search for ipod tools or iphone tools and you will find them.

    Hey Kenny,

    Make sure that your phone has been drying for a couple of days before turning it on.
    Also don’t go back for warranty from apple because they can tell that the phone has been damaged by water.

    Good luck.
