Where is the storage for the IPADs? How can I increase the chip and put in more storage space?

The unit had been dropped and when I removed the cracked glass there were two of the zif connectors locking bars loose in the case.

I replaced the glass put everything back and turned the unit on, it works fine except there is a dark band down the left side of the screen, when i rotate the unit the dark band is evident.

Is this because the LCD zif socket locking bar is broken and how could this be repaired, if possible?

Thanks in advance

I've replaced the digitizer and LCD on many iPads before. But today when I replaced a digitizer, I was greeted with no backlight after screen replacement. After I power cycled it, the backlight was working but it was stuck on an Apple logo before finally showing connect to iTunes.

I've disconnected the battery and reconnected but to no avail. Now when I try to select update on iTunes, all it does is show the loading bar and doesn't do anything.

I haven't tried restore yet because I don't want to lose data. Is there any solution to this?

I called several computer places around me who said they don't do it; they send it out for $130 but would not use my screen I bought from iFixit.

I'm pretty handy, have the new screen and can follow directions. I've seen a few you tubes on how to do this.

Have any of you replaced your screen? Would you advise me to try this on my own? Any tips?

A friend gave me her iPad to fix after the digitizer stopped responding. Everything else seems to work fine. The first few times it came back after putting it in Recovery Mode. Finally that stopped working so I did a Total Restore. Now it's stuck on the "Hello" screen and won't go any farther without a swipe.

I took it apart and there were no loose or cracked cables or connectors, so I ordered a replacement digitizer. Replacing the digitizer, and inserting the cable until the white line was gone, had no effect. LCD and all buttons seem to work fine. Is it possibly a logic board issue?

I hope that one day I can contribute about what kinds of adhesive to use to put the glass back on.

And maybe what kind of solvent to use to remove

the old glue. Tear downs are fun but there is much

more to an actual repair. Any suggestions?

About 75% of our parts end up getting returned to the parts supplier due to streaks on the glass and/or grease smudges around the edges of the inside of the digitizer. Fortunately they take them back and replace them no questions asked, but the replacements they send are just as bad and we still have to send a majority of those back as well.

I am wondering if theres other people here that have good relationships with parts suppliers that they would be willing to refer to me. We usually purchase the full digitizer assembly (w/ bezel, home button included). Any help would be great and I would be happy to let the suppliers know that you referred me.

Help me, iFixit community. You're my only hope.

Thanks.

The one in question was bought to me after a failed DIY fix. I have attempted to fit 3 different digitizers that work perfectly in other machines but without success.

The problem is very temperamental, sometimes the touch screen will work perfectly and at others not. I have attempted to apply pressure at different parts of the PCB without change, the ribbon clips and connectors look ok under magnification and I have restored the devise back to factory setting and updated. Nothing makes any difference.

Be grateful for any help and advice - many thanks Dan

Hello people,

i really need your help. You guys seem to be great at giving good answers that help hence why I’m here.

I have an iPad 8th gen. It had a smashed screen of which I replaced. I did lose touch id, but other than that, all went well.

Later that night, it started doing its own thing, including zooming in. I tried everything I could think of and have made a few discoveries.

1) It happens even when the digitizer and home button are disconnected. Suggesting, it isn’t related to the new digitzer.

2) There is a buzzing noise coming from the top end of the iPad, I believe the battery connector.

3) It doesn’t want to turn off. I can’t swipe it off as it is going crazy.

4) Forcing it to turn off doesn’t work, it turns itself back on shortly after.

Please can someone advise my next steps. I’m really stuck and don’t want to have to throw away such a good iPad.

Thanks people

— the buzzing appears to be coming from battery connector

The power button works; the home button works. Everything else works as it should

Can anybody confirm if the LCD really is beyond repair (somehow I damaged it in the extraction?) or if it’s something else. The prongs all look good, nothings shorted… I’m at a loss.
