My Problem
The battery in my iphone kept losing it's charge. I was getting annoyed at how often I had to recharge my phone.
My Fix
Smooth.
My Advice
Watch the videos :)

My Problem
There was no problem. Purchased the toolkit as needed some new tools, especially since I would like to get into fixing iPhones. I am so pleased and excited with my kit as its got most every thing I need to do specialised and general repairs. It will come in very handy for when I dissassemble laptops for repair.
My Fix
Strangely enough I actually needed to use my kit the first day I got it. I used the metal spudger to cut around some paint on a faceplate of a phone socket, then used the other side to gently pry it off. Not to forget using the driver and bits to undo the screws. I was so excited to be using my kit already!
My Advice
Im so happy with the experience with iFixit! My order was delivered to my door about a week after the order was put through. I live in New Zealand and this was probably quickest delivery from the states.
Im incredibly greatful for iFixit giving me some Kapton tape since they found it would be too much hassel to add something additional onto my order after it had already gone through online.
Thanks again iFixit! You guys are the best! ^_^
My Problem
Freak accident with a sandstone drink coaster resulted in dozens of deep scratches to the glass of my iPhone display. The device still worked.. but I could not live with the rainbow effect the display now emitted. I was very glad to find the iFixit website.
My Fix
Repair went well..took about an hour. Had a little trouble placing the circuit board back in the frame,watch out for the data ribbon cables... but patience paid off. The plastic tools were very helpful. The pictures from the website paid off enormously.
My Advice
Keep the steps of the repair organized with compartments of a parts tray so as to not get confused when reinstalling all the parts. Use high quality tweezers to hold and move the screws. Magnifying goggles helped me see the small screws and judge their sizes. Don't forget to remove and reuse the home button.
My Problem
We use the iPod video to play high-quality therapy music, and replacing it with a newer model was not an option, as it doesn't use the same high-quality wolfson chip, and in this case, every bit of quality is important.
My Fix
Opening the iPod was the most difficult step.
My Advice

My Problem
My iPod was only playing in mono. I tried several sets of headphones, tried cleaning the jack, then found iFixit.
My Fix
This is the first time I've ever tried to fix anything electronic, so it was pretty daunting at first. The step-by-step instructions and photos were really helpful. I had some trouble getting the iPod open, because I was being too careful, I think. I finally got it open after I got mad and twisted the opening tools a little. Everything else was smooth sailing. It took me about 30 minutes just to get the thing open, and then another 20-30 minutes to complete everything and put it back together.
My Advice
I would get an extra set of the opening tools, because by the time I got the iPod open, both my sets were broken. Also, when it says to "wiggle" the tools, you should actually twist them slightly, to about a 30-45 degree angle. It helps to leave one tools wedged in while working on the next side of the iPod.
Finally, those screws are SUPER tiny. Be very careful about picking them up, moving them, etc., because if you drop one you will never ever find it again.
My Problem
I have a selection of Apple products and it seem each has at least one crazy type of screw or needs some odd tool. After years fo frustration I ordered a Pro tool set. It's great but I'm still missing the screw driver for the iPhone 4s.
My Fix
The first repair job was to replace an iPhone 3g front glass. The parts from iFixit were perfect and it only took 10 minutes to follow the online instruction and finish the job.
My Advice
If you order the pro tech base tool kit - order the iphone 4s screwdriver because it's not included
My Problem
My rear-camera didn't work and my rear Glass Panel was broken. I wanted both to be okay.
My Fix
With the help of Ifixit tools and guides it was a very simple thing to fix. Within 30 minutes my Iphone was new again.
My Advice
I recommanded Ifixit to several friends.
My Problem
It was cracked when my wife dropped it in the gym.
My Fix
I followed the online repair and at first it seemed great. But the screen went out the second day, however your company was aware that some of the displays did this and sent me a second and it got here almost immediatly. Now it works works great. Will definately do bussiness you ifix it again!
My Advice
If its a first time repair, watch the online guide
My Problem
The Ipod was prviously dropped on a hard serface causing the screen to splinter.
My Fix
The total repair time too about 5 mins. Guides on Ifixit were very insightful and thorough. Hardest part was getting the miniture srews out of the EMI shield and getting the screen tucked in.
My Advice
Watch the screws don't run away. the guide does not show how the new screen tucks inside the side where the display used to be dont panic, it's eay. just play with it.
My Problem
Screen was cracked on the Kindle Fire from getting dropped
My Fix
I pried at the edges with ifixit's plastic opening tools and didn't really budge. After five mins fiddling with it, the tip of the bigger tool cracked.
My Advice
Don't buy it. Find a better quality set. I don't have anything against ifixit but they could sell a bit better quality tools and maybe have a better return plan so I don't have to pay more to return it then what it's worth!
