no, if you open it up and change anything (like the housing) it will void the warranty

will apple be willing to do it for me? i doubt it but it never hurts to ask. i wouldnt mind trying myself but there is that do not remove sticker over the last screw on the logic board lol

^Haha, no wayyy. And I'd recommend that if you're not 100% sure with what you're doing you either don't do it or have someone like cpjr do it for you.

i might contact him about it ... im pretty sure i could pull it off but i dont wanna take the chance lol

It's harder than it looks. It is very easy to tear away a cable when removing the display from the rear casing, and not nearly as easy to find and attach a replacement.

And the short answer is no, opening the case in any way voids your warranty.

If your not experienced with small electronics and fairly "techy" I wouldnt recommend trying it. The iphone is fairly "wimpy" on the inside and must be treated like glass.
