I had 4 come in today and 2 of you guys have potential to be out the door with just a flex cable, one is sketchy, but in the works....... one is dead as a dang door nail.

Its fun to watch this post. Ive been fixing 1gens for the past year.... and by the looks of it for too cheap!

One1, you ever found a way to sucessfully adhere a new piece of glass to a working LCD and Digitizer on a 1 gen iphone? Ive tried transparent adhesive sheets, glue and epoxy. Adhesive sheets dont go on clear and the epoxy and glue only work sometimes if the glass sticks to the digitizer.

Might as well just leave that one alone. The machine they use to do that only works in one direction, the ON direction. Their machine uses superheated material to melt it in then they drop the LCD on after the digitizer cools. Last I checked on that machine and material it was about $12,000.00

nice i used to sell parts for moto for cheap on M3 but that was ages ago i stumbled on here last night and today i dropped my phone and now the top half of my screen doesnt work... would u happen to have a digitizer in one those dead phones u have by chance im on a student budget and cant afford too much on parts thanks in advance and keep the good work maybe i'll get into this too but i dont have the fancy equipment or know how you do

No such thing as digitizer replacement. Buy the whole LCD/digitizer/glass on ebay. They are getting cheaper. I saw them for $138 today.

[Gyngabread Man]

yea hats what i meant... 138 is real steep for me ive been looking on craigslist for some and found one that was broken but still had a good lcd for 80 but he never replied when i asked where i could pick it up from well if u ever get a phone thats dead but the screen is good let me know ill tip u best i can

I have an iPhone 2G that often freezes on the "slide to unlock" screen. The phone works well, otherwise, but I'm getting annoyed by the freezing lock screen. Anything you can do about it?

Have you tried putting it in DFU mode then restoring it? Or have you dropped it or has it had any water damage? If so Ones1 your guy but maybe it's just a software issue (which I never heard of an iPhone freezing at the slide to unlock screen, and trust me I've heard everything but it could happen).

Some brief information would help us figure out how to fix your iPhone

[lillewis51]

i enjoy your sarcasm

There's YouTube videos on there, step by step videos check those out man

[Shinner23]

Phone was never dropped in water or anything like that, as far as I know. I've restored to factory settings several times and it stil happens. Overall, the phone works fine, except for the more than occasional freeze to unlock.
