<title><![CDATA[iPad Mini 6: Can’t find display replacement for ipad mini 6]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>3 month after i bought my ipad mini 6th gen a line like a crack appeared in my display. It started on one side and got longer, until it reached the other side. It is not straight, it goes upwards. It has to be in the front panel glass.</p>

<p>i always had a display protection glass on my ipad, and a case around it, which covers every corner. The protection  glass is perfectly intact, the crack is underneath it. I have no idea how this happened. But i think, Apple won’t believe me that its not my fault, so i don’t want to take it to the store.</p>

<p>So I’d like to replace the display by myself. But i can’t seem to find it anywhere. Do you have any idea where to get one or why there isn’t any?</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Mini: Why is there a serial number in my new lcd display?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I have just received my new lcd display that I have recently order from ifixit last month (11/25/014)for my ipad mini, the repair went  smoothly with just a few minor set back. After the installation</p>

<p>repairs,  I turn on the unit, it power up the apple logo appears,  no problems whatsoever.  But I notice something. Half way down in the right side of the display, there appears a four digits, numbers 4904T. Thinking that I probably forgot to remove a protective sheet</p>

<p>from the display, remove the digitizer and check for the protective</p>

<p>sheet, but did not find any on the display. I have also check</p>

<p>the digitizer glass, but found nothing. Just to be sure, l turn on the</p>

<p>ipad without the digitizer glass, and chech the lcd display, the numbers are still showing on the screen. I have also open other</p>

<p>programs, like safari,  apps, utilities,  youtube and games, with the same results the numbers are still showing. Is this normal for a new lcd, if not how could I resovle this issue.  Thanks.</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Pro 12.9": Ipad won't boot up. Apple logo flashing/bootloop. All help is welcome!]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi guys!</p>

<p>The ipad pro 12.9”(1st gen) It wasn’t used for over a year. When booting it up after that period, the apple logo appears and disappears a couple seconds after it. This goes on and on. But it will only work when the ipad is charging.</p>

<p>What I tried:</p>

<ul><li>Charged for 45min on charger</li><li>Hard reset, with no luck.</li><li>Putting the ipad in recovery mode, the itunes logo appears, stays on, but when I want to connect it to the pc it instantly shuts of the display. Pc can’t charge the ipad.</li></ul>

<p>Might this be a battery problem? That the battery can’t hold it’s charge when charging. So the battery is  ‘empty’. And there is not enough power to boot it up when connected to the charger?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Nick</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Pro 12.9": Touch screen not working on iPad Pro 12.9” (1st gen)]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>So my brother and I were changing a cracked screen on the iPad Pro last night and everything was going smooth. We were following the steps and when we plugged ribbon cables in we forgot to put the plastic tool in separating the battery.</p>

<p>There was a tiny tiny spark and so we figured the worst which was correct. We assembled everything back together and behold the touch screen didn’t work. The iPad powers up and the screen will turn on but you can’t do anything.</p>

<p>My question is, is there a component that I can purchase to replace whatever we fried to get the touch screen working or did we just ruin this iPad beyond repair.</p>

<p>I purchased it from a friend for 150 dollars because it had a cracked screen. The I purchased the new screen for 200 dollars. So I’m 350 dollars invested. Just trying to figure if it’s salvagable or I’m out on my money.</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi: Completely Dead Ipad Air 2]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello everybody,</p>

<p>so I have an Ipad Air 2 wifi that suddenly stopped working. The device didn't fall or get damaged with water.  The only problem it had was not charging when using other cables than the one that came with it(I have 2 original lightning cabels and a hdmi adapter, I have no problem using them on my IPhone 6 however with the Ipad they do their connecting function but the battery doesn't get charged). So the device does not show any reaction to charging and doesn't connect to any Pc/Mac. It also refuse the reset. The only thing that happens is the right side gets warm when I connect it with the charger. Apple's employees were not helpful and only suggested to replace the Ipad with a new one for 340€.</p>

<p>My question is did this problem happen to any one before? What can be the cause and is there any solution.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I ordered the battery replacement kit and have the battery replaced, seems to be fine. Cleaned up the edges of the screen and body, now want to install the adhesive strips.</p>

<p>Do I apply them to the screen or the body? There is no guidance within any of the iPad Air 2 guides, and the links referred to above are invalid...?</p>

<p>I know, I know, it seems pretty logical looking at it but I just would like to get it right as there's only one set of the strips...</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Mini: Suggestion for good preheat station for ipad, phone]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi,</p>

<p>Doe anyone have experience and suggestion for a good preheat station to use to ease separation of iPad glass, glueing of xperia screens etc. I am now using a heat gun and have read it is much better with a heating plate. I have some but I guess it is important that it can fit a large iPad.</p>

<p>Here are a couple that I have looked at:</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad 4 Wi-Fi: Gray lines on LCD after screen replacement, now iPad wont power]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I cracked the screen of my 4th gen iPad and decided to attempt the repair myself. After a good 2 hours of painstakingly removing the shards of screen I finally connected the replacement and decided to test it before completely reassembling. When I first powered on there was grey lines running across the screen so I powered off and rechecked the digitizer and LCD connections - all looked fine. Powered on again, same thing happened. Disconnected LCD and digitizer a second time and tried again. Now my iPad wont power on at all. I've tried a forced reset by holding down the power and home buttons, nothing. It seems totally dead. Tried to restore from itunes but due to the new iOS 7 upgrade, I need to first disable Find iPhone on the iPad - can't get in to the iPad to do so. iTunes at least recognizes the iPad and find iPhone says that my battery is still at 57% so its definitely not an issue with charge. Not sure what the exact problem is and would really appreciate some help on what to try next. I'm guessing I accidentally damaged the LCD and I will order a replacement but given that the screen lit up to begin with and is now unresponsive I fear I have caused some other damage? Thanks in advance for your help.</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Air Wi-Fi: Replaced cracked screen. Ipad now doesn't turn on.]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I have attempted a repair on an iPad Air with a cracked screen.  Prior to starting the repair, the iPad worked with the cracked screen.  After the repair, which went flawlessly, the iPad would not turn on.  If I connect the iPad to iTunes, iTunes recognises the iPad but says that the iPad is locked and must be unlocked before doing anything else.</p>

<p>At this point, I assumed I had purchased a dud digitizer on eBay and ordered a new one from ifixit.  That arrived this morning and I repeated the repair procedure... with the same result.</p>

<p>At this point, I am assuming that I must have somehow damaged the LCD screen during the repair.  Before I go ahead an order an LCD screen though, I would like to know:</p>

<ol><li>is that a reasonable assumption?</li><li>are there any tests I could perform to confirm this diagnosis?</li></ol>

<p>Thanks.... Steve</p>
