It is a pain to remove. Isopropyl alcohol makes it brittle and hard to gather to remove. The key is to remove the adhesive quickly after opening the device. Either remove the screen as quickly as you can without damaging cables, or prop the screen against a stable box or tool bag and remove the adhesive right after opening.
Yeah, he really just ran through that part. I’m sitting here holding the display in my hand over and over again that video. I wondered do you have to take every single bit of the old adhesive off? I’ll find out in a little while though.
Love how all these videos use pre opened devices. Not one trace of adhesive on the opening pick. Should use one that hasn't been opened to show what it's really like. Maybe less people would damage their devices.
I was doing this and I broke the old screen. It is not as easy at is seems in the video When I removed the old screen I broke the faceID sensor Be careful people
Why is it that all ifixit repair videos make the claim of true tone not being able to work after the screen replacement? I had my screen replaced today from an LCD to an original OEMOLED screen and we were simply able to copy over the serial number and all the other features of the old display over to the new display and now my new OLED display has true tone enabled! So why does IFIXIT keep making this claim when everyone knows you can use a simple programmer to resolve this issue! Is it simply because ifixit does not make the programmer available or refuses to showcase the programmer in action? What is the reason that ifixit makes this claim continually despite the actual truth?
Don’t you need a programing device so that the phone can work with it or is that just for other parts because when the iPhone 12’s first came out a guy swapped the logic boards and said you’d have to have something to program the phone to recognize it otherwise things wouldn’t work
Tip: If the screen doesn't turn on even after making sure all the connectors are good. You have to charge the phone by cable or wireless charging, and then hold the power button for it to turn on
At the last stage of putting the screen back on, you mentioned it should clip into place, my daughters screen has stopped working but doesn't look like it had its adhesive replaced so it kinds just falls out, it doesn't clip, so is just the adhesive that holds it together, cause I don't see any clips. Going to get a replacement and sort it myself but hoping the adhesive will keep the screen intact.
I’m wondering why you’re not suggesting or mentioning in this video to reprogrammed the serial number from original screen to the new screen using certain tools ?
@@1010TienTien if you care about true tone, you take it to either Apple, it a third party repairer with a program. The cheaper ones are like $400 so doubt many people want to buy one to DIY

😊hey saw that no one answered you but for me when I replaced my screen I just went to the settings and turned true tone back on then turned it off again (because I dont use it, it drains the battery too much)
Is there any tips to remove the adhesive a lot easier. I've been trying to lift the bottom part of the screen off for over an hour. I already heated up and used my iOpener more than 10 times on the screen and it just doesnt seem to budge. It's so frustrating. I would almost rather buy a completely new if i cant open up the screen ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!
Is it possible for damage to the top right of the screen to cut through the ribbon cable to the speaker and sensor assembly? Looking at the back of the screen, there is no damage.
What happens if I ripped the camera cable that’s attached to the phone, the very last cable connected before you were able to remove the entire screen. I’ve done a million iPhone 11 replacements, this is my first 12. For some reason, I assumed it would open to the left like the 11 and ripped that cable. I’m assuming my camera is just shot now. Are am I able to buy just that part?
Of course this is best case scenario and it glazes over the really hard parts. If you can wipe with one square of single ply toilet paper, you might have a chance of success.
Hey dude he didn't show us what to put in between the class and the bottom screen what glue to use like where what shall do you use for iPhone 12 pro max. Does it just click back in screw it in
Just wondering anyone know why the screen keep blackout after the screen replacement? Tested on 3 different screen, but still the same. And went to the repair shop, and they can make the screen on when using their screen? It's weird... Would like to save a hundred bucks :(
If the speaker and sensor assembly was swapped over from the old screen, it should still work. If it was replaced, face-id will NOT work, and will need to be programmed.
Sooo ur not gonna show what wasn’t functioning after u repaired it I understand tru tone but they left out how the camera or buttons might stop working

Only Apple can make it so complicated , 3 different screws and different length as well, more that 100 screw in total, why android phones use only Philips screws and all same size ???
Will face if work if i replace the screen from one iphone to another ? I have a iphone 12 pro broken screen and display . I have another that is locked with icloud can i take that screen and use it on mine?
After display Replacement, you will get error of non original screen, that message can be removed with microsoldering work, moving a unique eeprom from the old screen to the new screen.
Ikr! Someone could totally hurt themselves if they don’t learn how to do it! Since it’s an apple product, there must only be one place you can learn how to disassemble an iPhone from and it must be a super hard class to get into. Only the most elite and erudite students getting even a chance too see the inside of an iPhone, with all the plebs who aren’t apple approved being unable to ever ever ever possess the intellect to LOOK UP A TUTORIAL ON THE INTERNET!!!!
So I can buy an aftermarket display, an do all the work myself and lose true tone from you all for 499.00.. or I can send it to apple, have it replaced by them, with a oem screen, for 279.00.. hmm yeah.. pass.
Quite dusty and smeared with fingerprints...the inside of that iPhone...either a bad assembly in China or a bad repair from the guy...Hugh Jeffreys could do better!
The screen part costs $500 (before tax and shipping). It’s cheaper to go to Apple and have it replaced even out of warranty. Like what’s the point of replacing it yourself?

If you would like to keep True Tone, make sure to use a Color Programming Tool to copy over the data from your old display to your new one.

True Tone & Face ID work? after changed 3rd party iPhone 12 Pro screen?

You can get true tone and face ID to work now, but you have to buy a genuine screen. 3rd party screens won't work properly.

Ios 18 added the ability to get rid of the non genuine messages, as long as you use a genuine display.

Always watch your videos👍
Will this permanently disable the True Tone or will it come back over time?

Honestly it’s really not that hard if you have good hand-eye coordination.

By the time you purchase all of the special tools required, it'll cost more than just having a "fix it" place do it.
Or you can buy the 20$ options. They were good enough.
