I followed the directions precisely and the screen when it was rebooted lit up but no image. It voided the manufacturers warranty and cost me a lot of money to replace it. I would have rather had an iPhone with a cracked screen that worked than a paper weight.

This product was everything I expected and was much cheaper than paying to get it fixed or replacing my phone. I do suggest to watch many videos online and be extra careful. You are handling an expensive piece of equipment. But overall very satisfied with my purchase.

I will be installing it later tonight and i will write again to explain how it went

I give it four stars because my iPhone is working perfectly again for about 80% less than exchanging for a new unit at the apple store.. But I agree with the other reviewers that many things can go wrong.
It was really cool to take the iPhone apart and see the remarkably tiny components and connectors that make it work. It was even cooler when I got it working again.
I read the directions carefully, including the advice to test it before peeling the paper off of the permanent adhesive. Only on my fourth time reassembling the phone did I have everything perfect. So I took it apart one more time, peeled the adhesive, and permanently put it back together. Works like new.
I suppose there was about a 30% chance that I would break something and be unable to get it working again. If that had happened I would have given fewer stars and paid Apple $190 to trade my broken unit for a new one. I would have paid $30 or so to play with the insides of an iPhone.
I’m also investing in a better protective cover so it doesn’t get broken again!
Best wishes for a successful project.
PS. I found that a pair of tweezers was very helpful for re-inserting one of the ribbon cables. Just make sure to put them back when you are done or your wife will be mad at you (like mine was).

Do NOT!!!! think that this installation will go as smoothly as the youtube videos. EVERY SINGLE step besides taking the screws out is MUCH HARDER than it looks. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. This is how my installation went. Take the screws out, spent 15 minutes trying to pry out the screen assembly, take out the screws that hold on the lcd, BREAK MY LCD PANEL FROM PRYING TOO HARD (be VERY careful on this step, DO NOT PRY AT THE LCD LIKE IT SAYS, instead, try to widen the rails that hold it on so that it comes out by itself. THE LCD IS VERY(i wish there was a way to make double capitals, cause I would for that word) FRAGILE.) so anyways, I broke my lcd, but continued with my installation anyways. I got the lcd off finally. The next step is VERY hard if your digitizer is broken, but still hard if it isn’t. You need to heat up the glue with a hairdryer/heat gun until it melts, and pry off every little piece of broken glass off of the flimsy frame and then get all of the glue residue off. This took me all of about a half hour. Then you need to glue on the new digitizer. Now, the double sided tape they give you for this is absolutely nowhere near the quality of the glue that holds it on originally. the screen was falling off and i had to press it back on every once in a while. So, I did that, all done, looks nice except for the broken lcd and the crappy glue. I ordered a new lcd, installed that, (nowhere near as hard because it doesnt require glue melting), put it all back together, and I was happy. Even though it took hours of my time, my hands are all cut up from the glass, I’m happy. My iPhone is back in working order. For 5 minutes. Now guess what?! the home button doesn’t work. I had to take it to apple to get it fixed because I screwed up the very hard installation too many times and effed up the home button. Here is an opinion from someone who is just about the best at anything electronic without being an expert, JUST PAY THE $200 TO APPLE TO GET YOUR GLASS REPLACED. THEY DO IT ALL DAY AND WILL NOT MESS ANYTHING UP! Not to mention, they use the high quality glue that it came with so that your screen will never pop off like mine was. I never review anything and I really felt the need to write this to try to protect people from wasting their time/money and voiding their warranty. IT IS NOT WORTH IT.
