Difficult

My Problem

Had a broken iPhone 4S that I was replacing the screen on. The first screen I got from Amazon was defective. So I purchased a higher quality one and believe me you don't want to take the 4S apart more than once (4 times).

My Fix

When I shipped the defective screen off I left the home button in it so I quickly came to ifixit. They were the only place I could find that had the home button available. The install went smooth, just a little hard to get it perfectly straight, but the quality was there.

My Advice

The iPhone 4S Screen Repair, to me, is one of the most difficult repairs that there is out there. I suppose it isn't as hard as it is time consuming. Use the ifixit.com magnet pad or tape those screws down, you don't want to lose them. Also don't ship your home button off! :D
