- While the newest iPhones got a bump in water resistance, they aren’t any more drop resistant. So today, I’m going to show you how to replace the display on your iPhone XS Max.
*You should know that swapping out your screen will result in a loss of the true tone.
*Before you begin make sure you follow the step by step guide on our website it has lots of tips and tricks to make the repair easier.
*Make sure to drain you battery below 25% as a charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured.

Turn on the phone to see if the screen is working before u close it up.
Yeh
No this Can cause a sorry from you touching certain surfaces. Close up the phone then do it. Don’t see any homes but hold the office asone would
Not sure if this is going to do any damage but my screen seller told to me I must turn on and test it.
🎉🎉🎉
Glad to see them cover how to put everything back together and how to restore water resistance, much better than the last how to
Agreed, but if you notice in the repair video, they show putting new adhesive on the frame, but later in the clip the frame they are working with during reassembly DEFINITELY does not have new adhesive on it....
I'm not sure but ,if anyone else wants to uncover
computer pc repair
try Saankramer Electronic Magazine System ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my co-worker got cool success with it.
No they did not show how to replace with new screen. They completely slipped that and the video ended.
If anything she’s pulled the adhesive off.
Clear explanation and succinct demonstration, thanks.
I appreciate your time and knowledge shared on this video. I was able help a friend that crashed his sister's iphone screen. Thank you very much!
Very instructive video. Thank you.
Did my first screen replacement today....... it was hard because one of the screws didn’t want to come out. But I finally got it out and replaced the screen and did the waterproof and swapped everything over and it all works! Also I was worried about Face I’d not working but it still works!
None of my screws are coming out lol I can’t even take the bloody screen off
how did u get them out?
Samee! One of the screws wont come out!! Pls tell me what do i need to do
@@al-garymalik7343there’s blue thread lock on the screw threads. best practice is to use a little bit of warm heat to soften the thread lock. then begin to unscrew. if the head is stripped you are SOL.
Thank you, helped with replacing my daughter's screen!
it helped me with the first screen replacement, Thanks a lot
Thank you for telling how to assemble it back
@Shaolin Style, ifixit: “it’s not my problem, it’s yours”
Awesome Guide , I enjoyed ,, Thank you
Wow! Installation instructions!!! Thanks so much!!!
Awesome guide. I must say, JerryRigs video made them seem more drop resistant tho lol
Thanks alot❤
What temperature did you use to remove the display screen?
good info
thank you
Thank you
Any tips on where to buy? Is it safe to buy from a top seller in aliexpress?
How about faceID, any concerns on that?
Thnk u ma'am
This is the best guide on TH-cam. Some tips after doing it my self
1. Make sure you get a magnetic mat I almost lost screws
2. The face recognition module won’t fit exactly like how it did in the oem screen I kept trying to place it in my new screen thinking it would snap in but it wouldn’t so I just made sure it was secure and screwed the bracket in and it after I finished up it worked just fine.
My screen is coming tonight and now I’m excited to swap it out after your vid. Thanks.
Where did you get it from?
Proximity sensor and ambient light seems tense to replace
You should really make a video on the way bits are hold in place in the 1/4" to 4 mm Driver Adapter
and in the Flex Extension. For those who had the previous version, it can become hard to guess it.
I received my new toolkit 5 days ago and i was very frustrated because i didn't understand the new holding system.
i tought it was a defect. that feature doesn't appear on any of your videos.
Does this process keep Face ID functional??
Very similar to repairing a 7 or 8, honestly I was expecting it to be more complicated but it seems straight forward.
Dissss
What about the screen programming I seen in other videos?
Do you have the repair kit?? Linked in the bio?? Where can inget it
Jerry rig everything tested the iphone xs and he was suprised how drop proof the iphone xs is and he tested it on the asphalt with the case on and without and it just had scractches on the iphone without the case no broken back glass or front
So you take one guys review and go with it. I’m sure there are thousands of other people who disagree .
Where is the best place to buy supplies to do this?
I’d highly appreciate if anybody would answer this question, I currently have an 2 iPhone XS Max’s (with the only difference being one 64GB, the other 256GB) same color. I want to swap the batteries of both phones so the 256GB iPhone XS Max has the better battery, will I still get an error under battery health if I do this or will the battery percentages health change on both phones like normal (one is 100% health and other is at 70% health) any ideas?
Can you use a heat gun to open?
Where can I get the screen replacement?
So what is the advise when the digitizer screen detaches from the frame leaving the screens frame still in the phone and the digitizer peeled off.
Nice
My iPhone XS left side vertically touch is malfunctioning. Specially few keys like S, W and right swipe.. what could be the issue?
Please where can get the tools to replace phone like this?……
Particularly where can I get this if I want to buy it I need the link?……
Can I do this and not lose True Tone somehow?
So no true tone flash on the new screen?
0:27 turn on auto generated subtitle and it will say “you need a pee tube”
JustPlainShit LOL
My pee tube is a lil bigger then them screws. won't work
how can i remove the charging port screws if they are completely rounded off? mine had rusted a bit and when i tried to unscrew and remove the scree the head just degraded and now i cant get it out.
It's funny because I was playing with all the things in my ifixit pro tech toolkit and I got a notification for this video
I understand that true tone is calibrated with the OG display and logic board from factory. But it seems true tone should still work it just won't be as good. Or could Apple have some way of sensing if its connected to the non stock display and just turn true tone off completly until they calibrate it themselves. I could see them doing such a thing. Hope news about this comes out in time since I have this phone myself and would love to calibrate the display myself or bite the bullet and deal with Apple to get true tone back. If it turns out they do turn it off and only they can re calibrate and turn it back on.
Doesn't this mean True tone will work just not as well as a stock sealed phone would rit? Also if this is true what will the effect be on the end user if the true tone works but just isn't calibrated to the new display. Will it randomly activate with out rational reason, assuming it should activate in said situation since its using the old screen calibration as its basis? Perhaps. Things like that or any other issues u could see happening would help us out a lot.
Thanks,
it just stop working pay more to apple and keeo it if you like it
One of the screws wont come out, pls help, whatdo i do?
Can you please tell me that Face ID still works
hello the best youtube channel ever... i replaced the screen of my XS then lost the face ID, it says « face id is not available » any easy fix for this issue... they say restoring the phone with DFU mode and itunes would fix it... but i wanted to ask experts like you
There is many things that you couldve done wrong. You couldve forgotten to unplug the battery. You couldve touch the dot protecter on the face ID camera. You couldve possibly damaged it when prying out the screen. You couldve damaged the ear speaker module on the screen. Theres many things
the face id black cord that long black strip holding he 2 sides together broke will that cause the phone not to work . someone Helppp
Why would ifixit say that you would loose True Tone?
This is only because they lack the use of the machine programmer that copies the serial numbers from the current display over to the new display!
The metal frame and hooks attached to the screen are still in my phone anybody have tips how to remove the. Without a screen installed
But what if the screen is completely shattered and you can’t get the suction cup to stick?
Dr904 Thanks I’ll try it!
Yep. I use the wide scotch tape for packaging.
Use a packing tape and use a strong tape to pull the display up.
potato potato potato potato potato potato potato. Then why won’t you Consider Legal action against the people who stole from you
what does the phone screen look like 3 months later
I can't use the suction handle because the screen is broken :|
They didn’t show the adhesive tapes and how they were installing that
I have a problem with my iphone XS Max. Both my screen and the back glass were damaged. I was able to replace the back glass (sort of). However, I realized that I burned through to my damaged screen and wasn't able to use the touch screen anymore along with not using my wireless charger. I took my phone to some third rate repair shop and the guy put a LCD screen on it and not the phone won't turn on without being updated. I've tried, but the phone won't update or let me restore the phone. Is there anything I can do or is my phone completely bricked?
sounds like something else may have went wrong? can only think something has been damaged in the process of it all and created another issue, either that or perhaps all the wires were not properly connected back?
i have a problem that i cant remove the charger port screws cause of rust and them rounding off.
Does this one still have the weird issue where FaceID may or may not work after screen replacement? I've seen that issue in a few shops with the regular iPhone X.
No it doesnt happen if you dont replace the earpiece with the Display. Just transfer it like your homebutton and everything works!
potato potato potato potato potato potato potato why are you watching this?
mine stopped working after i left it in my cold car, it’s stupid how sensitive it is
I replaced my iPhone 6's display and kept my old home button but the finger print doesn't work lmao
Roshan cus u probably didnt attach it back properly i replaced my 6s plus screen and homebutton my touch id still works
Wow I thought u would whole screen apart.
What is true tone? Why isn't that available after replacement?
makes your screen act like paper in different colors, makes it yellow in translation, easier on the eyes. Apple disables it if they notice u replaced screen yourself
@@pecoliky8793 a lot of these videos don't show you how to restore true tone. There is a tool you can buy for about 55 to $60 called the jc-1 tool. Look it up it will solve your problem but you have to disassemble your phone in order to use it and restore true tone.
@@bassinbillRC5300 you have to remove the display. Not disassemble your entire phone. You should be very mindful of the terminology being used. Why would I take apart my entire phone to have True Tone be programmed ?
I just have to have to the display removed. Not the entire phone !
I did every step as the video told, checked if it worked. It worked and I got excited, but after I closed the screen it stopped working all of a sudden. Anyone got a similar problem? I tried unscrewing, and screwing everything back again, but it still did not work. I am disappointed, not even about the money I lost on it, but just for the fact that it worked for a while and then just stopped working.
how are the screen staying on its place? do i need glue
It's held by screws. And There's black silicone if you wanna buy that yourself.
I should have watched this before I went to the store cause I didn’t know there were TRI WING SCREWS I NEEDED TO TAKE OUT
Yep I bought that screwdriver (tri-wing) I have two of them in case I lose one. After watching Richard meza I fix it and one other TH-camr who have uploaded videos about repairing and rescreening iPhones I have all the necessary screwdrivers in order to work on iPhone 6 7 8 6 plus 7 plus and the 10x Max and the XR.
Didn’t really show how to replace the screen though!
✌️
Why doesn't True Tone work after this repair? Just Apple being stubborn or the new display doesn't support it?
It does work. Ifixit just does not want to show any other hardware doing the job of copying the serial numbers and True Tone from display over to a new replacement display.
has anyone tried this yet? I have 2 xs max, one with cracked screen wich works fine, and the other one restarts every 40 seconds, I switched the screens with front camera and sensor and touch screen wont work on either. I if put them back to its original logic board again the work
Dk needs testing
Most likely a motherboard issue. That happens alot in Xs Max’s.
anybody else having issues with the ear speaker portion? i feel like my iphone xs max is different than the ones shown....
If I replaced the screen by following this tutorial, will I lose the data on the device? My iPhone x has small crack and after updating to iOS 12.1 the secreen is not responding. The phone is working fine but I can't use it. I can't even connect it to iTunes to take a backup.
potato potato potato potato potato potato potato is it sarcasm?
@@xdd15 just laugh for him so he thinks he is funny. And the answer for my question is no. Replacing the screen does not cause loss of data
Water resistant video is from an older phone
Question...had my screen replaced today...now the 3d touch for flashlight and camera on lock screen will not work..but haptic touch works for everything else...whats going on?
Who replaced it? And does Face ID work?
Narcizo Sanchez so they put a lcd screen on mine...not oled
Narcizo Sanchez a phone repair store changed it...girl said it was oem screen, found out it was aftermarket lcd screen..now the battery dies 2x faster than before and camera and flashlight on lock screen are very sensitive and open in my pocket alot...reach in my pocket and my phone is hot as hell
Face id does work
@@Brandonb8621 best thing to do is on your laptop or desktop computer download iTunes.then take your data cable otherwise known as your charging cable plug it in your phone and the other man with iTunes opened plug in your USB cable to your computer. It will ask you to either reset or restore your phone there'll be a description of what eachchoice will do for you I believe the reset will allow you to reset your phone back to factory settings without erasing all your data photographs phone numbers contacts.
Its a pity you dont show anyone how to use a $20 true tone programmer, instead of showing this easy to do guide ! It's a lot harder than that also to open an iphone that has not been done before ! It would have been good to show Noobs how much adhesive is in there, instead of just promoting your own products which are not even needed ;)
The video says the display opens from the bottom up, but it opens to the LEFT to protect the cables from snapping. That was a costly mistake for me! Also, you can use diamond wire as an alternative for seperating the screen.
Might be nice if you warned that the screws on the plates were different sizes….
Plz show more close ,sure we can save dollars .
Can we get to see how Apple bends the display to eliminate the chin? Maybe someone will have to sacrifice their display for this
But the screen is still popping out not the same as original
Always turn on the phone to check if it’s working properly *before* screwing the screen back into place.
Wait why do you lose the True Tone function
DARKSEIDUS because ots not an original screen
@@amirawad7741 you can restore true tone provided you have a tool called the jc-v1 restorer tool. It's available on both Amazon and eBay. This gadget you hook up to your desktop or laptop computer to download the latest software for the unit. Then before putting the new screen on your phone hook up your old screen to the jc-v1 tool to transfer the data from your old screen to the tool then after you transfer that through your computer then disconnect your old screen attach the flex cable that goes to your motherboard for the new screen flex cable and transfer the data you just took off your old screen to the new screen this will be this will allow you to initiate true tone when you put your phone back together. There is a TH-cam tutorial on how to use this thing.
Yup....I'm not gonna be able to do this
It’s not hard if you take your time, stay organized with the hardware and treat it gently.
I kept telling myself: “I don’t need a screen protector”
I dropped it on my living room floor from about ~5 feet and the screen is shattered.
Yo this just happened to me 😭😭😭
ya well at least you aren't here for a second time 😆😆😆..... ..... .... 🥲
@@Mark__ oof
thats called low IQ persistence.
Huh, the replacement seems very simple.
iPhones are actually very easy to repair unlike other apple products
@@jcube7319 what they didn't tell you in this video is that if you don't use a particular gadget to restore true tone by transferring the data from your old screen to the new screen you won't be able to turn on true tone on the new screen from the keypad of your phone.
@@bassinbillRC5300 I'm late to the party, but they said it 22 seconds into the video :P
I now know that this music exists.
😂😂
I love how you guys do these kind of tutorials, but most people switch their display only when it's cracked or shattered. So the suction handle doesn't really work well. Maybe try to do a tutorial on this with a pretty badly shattered display.
Frank Wang figure it out
If a 13 y/o can do it, then you can. 😑
While this is very late, I have heard tape is a best friend!
Just put the wide clear tape across the broken screen , it will suction to that.
@@amirawad7741 no need to be a little prick
True tone will be disabled? I love it :( that's so dumb ughhh
is it the OEM screen? like the original?
My screen is fine but I'm worrying for the future :D
it will still exist its just that with each phone true tone is calibrated to that specific display and its unique quarks. Therefore since we have no way to hardware calibrate the phone to the NEW display ourselves as repairers. Then we will have to deal with the fact that the phone will be relying on old calibration data to operate true tone.
Meaning it will work I think, but it just won't be as accurate. Not by much I imagine but it will still be an issue. So don't fret basically, you should be fine. And in time someone will release software to calibrate the new display with true tone software just gotta wait.
@@TheReal_ist Awww. that sucks. Calibration is also important for me ;c
If someone release this kind of software, that will be as a tweak for jailbroken devices only in my opinion.
This is not a XS max , why is the screen thick while it should be thin and why is there brackets? the original doesn't have brackets. With the brackets it will not close. I don't get it smh, I need one. Had to return it.
at 3:59 she screw it even though the screen is not properly placed.
make sure to get a good lcd with 3d touch dont buy a cheap lcd
Seen how much it was to fix my crack and then instantly searched up a video on how to do this
How to repair PS4 controller
Yaqoob Yaqoob lots of tutorials out there. Pretty easy. What needs to be repaired?
@@daniel_960_Probably the the R2 button I'm guessing...that or a dead battery.
@@letssuperfuntime check the voltage if not then its probably the r2
Can you fix my phone?
Did you ever get your phone fixed?
Why would True Tone not be functional anymore if your replacing it with an OEM screen
This happens because apple doesn’t like people repairing their own devices & mostly iPhone repair shops so in the iOS 12 update they made it that all screen repairs have to be programmed with the serial number of the phone. This requires a special machine. It is called a EEPROM programmer. I repair iPhones a lot so I have the machine but you also have to keep in mind that if you do rip your front camera and replace it you will no longer have Face ID and True Tone will also be disabled. Everything is now programmed together which is why this is happening
@@sohibetaha223 th-cam.com/video/85y0pnmSQOk/w-d-xo.html
The replacement display costs more than it does to fix with Apple.
DPMO yeah this will only make sense in a few years when these are all out of warranty, when that happens I’ll be happy to take on the customers :)
@@RolandKoller90 nows the time lol
$429 plus tax in canada at the time of this comment to fix from apple..
why the loss in true tone?
because each screen has a ID number. If they dont match with the phone's ID, they wont work. Same with newer batteries. I think its called DRM
@@pecoliky8793 you have to buy a gadget called a JC-1 screen data tool from either Amazon or ebay.this tool is used in conjunction with a desktop or laptop computer which has downloaded the latest software or firmware update for this tool.once you remove your old screen you need to attach that old screen to the tool to transfer the data from the old screen to the tool then after disconnecting your old screen attached the motherboard flex cable from the new screen to this tool now you'll be able to transfer using your computer the information you just took off your old screen onto the new screen this way you'll be able to initiate true tone on your phone once you put your screen back together and close everything up.
This video was an iopener...
eye opener
è stato già smontato precedentemente, il video lo devi realizzare con un iphone mai smontato con le guarnizioni ancora integre.. cosi sono bravi tutti.. infatti è li che si rompe, con uno già aperto in altri contesti non da nessun utile , io li riparo per mestiere e so cosa dico
loss in true tone?
True Tone is calibrated and programmed into each screen at the factory. There are tools for copying the ALS calibration data from the original screen, but I haven't seen any that can re-calibrate True Tone. It's unlikely you will notice that True Tone is not calibrated in the screen itself.
@@jonmarler I understand that its not calibrated to the best it should be and all. But from what your saying it seems true tone still works its just not calibrated to the minor new variables that comes with said new display. Since all are slightly different.
Doesn't this mean True tone will work just not as well as a stock sealed phone would rit? Also if this is true what will the effect be on the end user if the true tone works but just isn't calibrated to the new display. Will it randomly activate with out rational reason, assuming it should activate in said situation since its using the old screen calibration as its basis? Perhaps. Things like that or any other issues u could see happening would help us out a lot.
Thanks,
@@TheReal_ist it just dosnt work
@@TheReal_ist Without the calibration data, the phone won't activate True Tone whatsoever. I'm quite confident though that someone will figure out a way to reactivate TrueTone even on 3rd party and refurbished displays though.
Jon Marler
Alright if that’s true next question is how do u know this. Aka what’s your source so we know to take what u say as something worth taking.
Coming from a 6S Plus, I've replaced my screen 3 times. And each time has either an issue with the proximity sensor or the ambient light sensor. I can ONLY IMAGINE what issues are gonna be had with the FaceID module. This is beyond stupid to have this and they should stick with easier to repair items. Anyone else think of these things when needing to repair? No wonder iPhone 8's have seen an ENORMOUS jump in sales. Not even last year's iPhone X will save you.
Might as well go back to the Nokia 3310 if we want easier to repair items and beefier electronics lol
more samsung phone please
But y with Apple you can actually replace the display without REMOVING EVERY component from the phone. Unlike the Galaxy line which makes u do just that.
Biggest reason I'll never get a Galaxy they make u do so much work to replace the display the part of the phone most people break first. Meaning funny enough Apple has a more user focused repair mindset with there phone engineering then the much more enthusiast Samsung Galaxy phones.
Pretty ironic isn't it...
potato potato potato potato potato potato potato
I know right I just hate rational arguments to something I oppose.
Fucking idiot, u irrational fanboys are such a problem in the industry.
Actually the new iPhones are more drop resistant
No the new iPhone is fuck resistance....
Nah its still glass it will shatter
If its 1% stronger they will scream drop resistant because marketing
Same with their saphire camera lenses, it has so little saphire in it that its not any more scratch resistant than a normal piece of gorilla glass yet they'll scream wow look its saphire because again, marketing
@@Roshan_420 I remember when i could trow my old gorilla glass Samsung across the room with out a case and it wouldn't even get a scratch...SMH
@@Roshan_420 if it was actuall sapphire it would be much more brittle, which seeing as the current iphones have a camera bump, wouldn't really be good.
TrueTone is gone.
offcourse you need a iopener for an iphone duhhhh
still costs $600 for the screen sooooooooo.
Owen The Techie 150$ now
Why does swapping the display makes you lose True Tone‽
Ikr why??
Calibrated with each individual screen, like the handshake used to be for TouchID. I advise people to have Apple do the replacement on the iPhone X and will for the XS and XS Max, too.
the screen is paired with the logic board from factory. my guess is. similar to older models 8, 8+ and X. data from the old screen has to be copied to the new. as of yet. such device does not exists for the xs max
you'll be fine true tone should work it just will act funny since the Stock display isn't there for it base its OG calibration data off of. Seeing as most of Apple's display even 3rd party ones are so similiar in nature u should be fine. Also theres this thing called Night shift might have heard of it. Yaaaaa it does the same thing Slight variance in the two features. But to the average even repairer they won't notice.
So u good mate.
TheReal _ist True Tone sense lights in the surrounding while Night shift is just turning the screen redder.
