Replacing iPhone 4 rear panel

Hi Walter,

Great photos! It's amazing how easy it seems replacing this rear panel... Obviously, I cracked my iPhone 4 and need to fix it now. Apple would charge me $199 to replace it (the phone, not the rear panel!) and needless to say I don't want to do that. Now, when I know how to replace it myself =) can you recommend where I could by this back cover from? Thanks in advance.

George

If you are near an Apple Store, go in and ask them to replace the back cover only. It only costs $29 +tax. Much cheaper then doing it yourself

Repairing your backplate is fairly easy. Remove a few screws near the dock port, remove and replace.
