If you've got a cracked iPhone XR screen and are attempting this repair, good luck! You've got this. One quick note about iPhone screen replacements: Apple disables some features (like True Tone) after a screen replacement. They have proprietary tools to calibrate the new display and re-enable those features, but unfortunately we don't have access to those tools, and you probably don't either. That said, your new display should otherwise look and function completely normally after a repair! Don't be afraid to attempt this repair yourself. In *newer* iPhones (iPhone 11 and up) Apple goes as far as to pair the original display with the Logic board, and throws an annoying error message in your face after a screen replacement--even if the replacement is a genuine Apple display. You can read more about it here: bit.ly/2GpzbEj. Again, this annoying error message only happens in iPhones that are newer than the XR, so it won't be a problem with this repair.
If you may or may not know, there’s an equipment already that can copy the code from your old display to your new display to bring back True Tone functionality
Before watching video: screw it I’ll do it myself and save money After watching video: I will pay someone an exorbitant amount of money to do it for me
As an acmt for 5 years and stopped being that in 2017, i've just replaced my smashed screen following the direction of this video and it worked out great. Patience is the key when doing it the first time. Also having the right tools is very important.
First try, got it perfectly, sealed flawless, no torn ribbons and no stripped screws. I'm feelin funky fresh. Customer says its like the day it was opened, and face rec even works.
Just did this screen replacement with earpiece replacement - thanks for the guide. Those really tiny screws were a pain in the arse. Btw. I bought a new earpiece, the old one wasn't working at all. Never used faceid anyway. Btw 2. I had drank a bottle of wine and 4 beers, so anyone can do this.
Excellent video, thanks! My replacement screen came with no sensor bracket, so I had to remove that from the old screen *and* remove the earpiece grill from the new screen (because the old grill remained attached to the bracket).
yall i just did it and it works perfectly, i ordered the screen from a good company and the tools from amazon for 7 dollars in a kit. you dont need to use the i fix it kit as their screens are not good quality sometimes. But the tutorial is accurate and i got to fix my first iphone xr in one try hehehehehehe.
Alright i have tried this and it is quite hard. Some screedrivers can be damaged which leeds to frustration and anger because you can't really lossen the screews. But i was lucky and managed to get through the process from start to finish.
I’d recommend asking for others to do this, in case you want to have True Tone. As long as they have screen configurators, it will keep saying it’s not a legit screen but True Tone will work just like it did before
But why? iFixit parts are super expensive. iPhone 11 Pro Max Screen is $399 just for the part, when apple will repair it for you for $329. I would trust Apple more than myself for basic stuff like this
Ari Bloch i work at a phone repair shop. We are legit, use programmers, adhesives, proper equipment, clean environment and have a variety of screens to choose from ranging from Economy-OEM screens. We charge 150 the least on XRs.
@@narsi23 I think that's the only way that makes sense. iFixit is unreasonably expensive and not a great business model in my opinion. I would rather take my phone to a shop for $150 guaranteed to work then spend nearly the same amount on just the part, and no guarantee I do it correctly. And then people like you calibrate them and quality test
40 min to finish?! maybe for you that do this on a daily basis - took me about 1.5hrs and i've replaed screens before. taking it a part = no problem. Putting back together = frustrating! getting the little screws in place is lv 10 hard! but good video, tools and screen i bought from ifixit. would use them again but would set me expectations to double the time.
I was interested to learn more about redoing the adhesive seal and all this video says is "it is linked in the description below" ...i have no idea what that means i have tried looking everywhere on this video !???
Overcomplicated this so much: 1 - don't need the silly iOpener tool. Just use a heat gun for a few seconds 2 - don't need those junk suction cup openers that break after 2 days to open it, a thin $5 metal spudger can open it. 3 - don't need tweezers or picks 4 - don't need to discharge your battery to 25% 5 - don't need to take off the LCD shield, as most new XR screens come with it 6 - They didn't test the screen before installing it 7 - They didn't use True Tone copy machine to copy True Tone over
Really? How? I repairs two iphone XR today and I had no issues. Except one little grounding bracket that broke dude to being stuck really good but nothing to serious
A lot of aftermarket screens don't have it. It's on the LCD shield. You can see it on the video on the lower left corner. If you swap it from the original one (like this video) it will be retained.
What mount strategy and lens do you use to film the inside of the phone from the top? I just purchased a load of tools from ifixit and am planning to make a table with the camera so i'm able to look back at a disassembly. (by lens i mean zoom , wide or average lens used on a dslr.)
I heard it in a lot of videos about discharging the battery below 25%. Would that help if the batteries were bulging? Those are the ones you have to be very careful with.
@@Fly-Andy okay thanks. I went to a phone repair school and they actually said to not accept it because it’s dangerous, but i’ve seen youtube videos where someone was able to do that

Got a big deal and probably doesn’t even make a difference, but you guys forgot a minor step. The video doesn’t tell you to replace the ambient light sensor bracket during the reassembly.
Hi! I just followed this video to repair my iphone and its working as normal now thankyou! However my phone is a lot darker now even with the brightness at full, the colours are so dim. Could this be from water damage and is there anything that can be done to fix it?
Elite Gaming it is connected, that’s why he transferred the top module and all sensors from old screen to the new screen. That’s how you retain Face ID.
And I forgot to mention 2 do work just need screens and one has probably have problems the iPhone XR and galaxy s9 just need screen replacements the iPhone 11 has no battery punchard ribbon cables other than that these phones would work

Thank you for your comment. I was going to attempt to fix it myself but never mind I’ll just have Apple geniuses handle this one.
Followed step by step and it worked all you need is patience

You can restore the true tone by copying the serial on the old display and transfer it to the new one. By using the JC programmer..
Jordan You can find it on ebay or alibaba. Its cheap. And its easy to use..

Personally I am an AASP certified, and I can say that the XR is the absolute worst phone to repair.
Nah, all iPhones are basically the same thing to repair. There are way worse phones to repair.
Rapha2587 Apples like official way for the repairs have you replace two tiny clips which are just super annoying.
