My Problem
My headphone jack busted. I can't commute without my iPod!
My Fix
The repair went without a hitch. I had seen a video on YouTube about how to replace the jack, so when I got in there, it was straight forward. Took maybe 20-30 minutes.
My Advice
I definitely recommend you get the plastic opening tools. Also, make sure you use a magnetic screwdriver. The screws holding the headphone jack are tiny, any it's difficult to get them in place by hand.
My Problem
The headphone jack was broken. Only the left side had a signal.
My Fix
Easy as pie.
My Advice
iFixit could not have made the process any easier or any more convenient. You have quite a robust business model on your hands. Cheers.
