My Problem

Her screen shattered so bad, it couldn't properly track touches.

My Fix

I ordered a full assembly (important: with camera!) and sat down with my 12 year old daughter to help her fix her iPhone 5. She's not exactly the patient careful type, so I needed to encourage her to go slow and be sure to hold hands over the work area so we don't lose any parts. Well, she lost one screw that we never found again, but it's probably no big deal. She needed some help removing the screen since it required some gentle strength. She also needed help plugging the first cable in, but she did the other two cables herself. In the end, it all worked perfectly.

My Advice

Make sure your work environment is clean and well lit. Use reading glasses or magnifying glasses. Be patient - getting the tiny parts to align can be tricky.
