Just replaced the display and battery on my cracked iPhone 5, worked flawlessly.
I didn't run into any glue problem. just be gentle and ease into it.
- The toughest part was the home button connector, but as long as you attack it from the right as noted here, you'll be fine, I can see how rushing / attacking through the left would ruin it.
- Also make sure the front facing camera is aligned with the hole when you re-assemble.
You can see that this is a late generation consumer electronic device from Apple, as this process is amazingly straightforward, and replacing the screen was designed into the product unlike earlier iPhone models (and iFixit gives you the insider knowledge you need).
