DIY iPad Screen Repair After a Drop

      • The assumption was that a connection inside had come loose due to the drop. I then gently tapped all around the edge of the housing with a small rubber mallet, and lo and behold, the display suddenly came back on and is working perfectly. This certainly won't help every time, but it might be worth a try with an older device.
