Answer to: Screen blank and unresponsive after water damamage!
Hi Alex, First question to you: Is your iPod touch still covered by the Apple Warranty? You can check that by going to this link: https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.... and enter the iPod serial number found at the back of the iPod. If it's still covered, I suggest taking it to the Apple Genius Bar to see if they can do something for you. You don't need to tell them about the water incident. They have the way to know if they want to, but some agents are nice and won't care much about that, I hope. If it's NOT covered. I suggest do some more research about that same kind of problem on the Internet to learn about chance of getting it fixed before buying any parts to do the repair. Water damage can be severe and may damage more than just the screen and the digitizer part. For me, if spending on the parts may cost a lot and the chance of getting it fixed is slim, I'd just save money and buy a new one if I were you. Sorry if this won't help much. Regards, CHB -
Answer to: Earbuds only come thru in one speaker.
Hi guys, Because the headphone jack is attached to the logic board (soldered on the logic board), replacing the headphone jack might require special tools and extreme care. It might not be a good idea to do that unless you have all the necessary tools and are willing to take the risk. check this link on Step 10: Installing iPod Touch 1st Generation Logic Board Dave, I agree with Bac that it sounds as if few connectors inside the headphone jack got loose or bent. You can check inside the headphone jack using a small keychain flashlight to see if it's true. You might find something tiny but strong enough to bend the connector back to its normal condition if the connector's bent. I know it's not that easy to do, but that's all I know. Hope you can get it back to work normally. Regards, CHB -
Answer to: Will the iPod Touch 2G screen fit a 3G (32 GB) Touch?
Hi Korso, According to iFixit teardown of the iPod Touch 3G 32GB (link: iPod Touch 3rd Generation Teardown), I don't think you can use the screen for the 2G to replace the 3G. The third bullet point of the Step 4 of that teardown mentioned that the screen and digitizer of the 3G 32GB iPod Touch are not the same as the previous generation one. It's sad that Apple charges a lot for their service. Hope iFixit gets the part in stock soon.
