Hey! How do you suggest getting the screen off if it’s not as shattered at yours?. Picking away at the crack? I would post a pic but not seeing how to do that… I’m going to attempt. Figure local cell phone repair places will charge half its value if they’ll even do it.

Thanks!

Hi John, I haven’t personally tried this repair, but I’d say something like our iOpener would work great.
