I have (what I think is) a 2nd gen iPod Touch, it came w/ a broken screen. I was told by the seller it was a 3rd gen so I went and bought a 3rd gen screen. I attempted to replace it and I cannot for the life of me get one of the wires to align properly so I don’t know if it is, in fact, a different generation or I’m just a moron…
I already screwed up the plastic part that sits around the screen but I figure that can be replaced. The Apple retailer near me won’t touch it b/c I already did so I’m hoping someone on here can help me out. If it needs a new screen then I will buy it and have it sent to you and I’ll pay you (or trade a yoyo) for your time and labor.
Let me know if anyone is up to the challenge.
I would also sell the phone w/ the new 3rd gen screen if anyone was interested in that also.
Dude…I’m no expert but I think the screen is the same…? apple has something on the back that tells you what gen it is…where did you get the screen…?send me a pm I can show some pic’s to a friend…
send me some pic’s and I’ll foward them to my “Russian” friend… he’ll tell me if it’s trashed…how much you should pay to get it fix…etc… may take a few days to hear back from him…put the old screen back on and ebay it…
I think the first step is properly identifying which generation the iPod touch is.
BTW, One of my friends has sucessfully replaced an iPod screen (not iPod touch), and I would love to repeat the feat, but I’m worried about screwing up your iPod touch.
