This video was my "go to" guide for replacing the broken screen on my daughter's iPod Touch. I did everything exactly as shown and described. The screen wouldn't come on, so I hooked it up to the computer/charger and it booted right up! You saved me $75! Thanks for a great video, Jorge, and especially for your thorough verbal description of exactly what you're doing each step of the way. It is very helpful to have both a quality video and quality narration in one place.

Excellent job making the video. My daughter's fell out of her pocket and the screen broke. She saved all Summer to buy it and was very sad to say the least. After watching your video, I feel confident enough to give it a try. I plan to order a kit, sneak her broken one and fix it. Then I'll think of a cool way to surprise her. Anyway, thanks again for sharing this.

And the copper tape at the digitizer caple is there for grounding the top digitizer cable, if you get a esd schok on it and it jumps over to the back off the cable you have to replace the screen and capacitive ic again. The c ic (capacitive ic) is a bga (surface mounted) solder work. The schock can even jump over when everything is closed since the back is from metal

As for the home button, you may need to find a thin piece of plastic and wedge it in between the plastic home button and the actual contact that it pushes down onto inside the device. If that doesn't work, then I don't know what could be wrong. Is your device displaying a blank white screen?

So I wanted to post because I noticed a lot of people are having a "white screen" problem after this repair. First off I had this problem after following this video. I am a repairer I repair all kinds of things from tablets to phones to cars. Pretty much anything. I haven't repaired an ipod 4th gen yet so that is why I watched the video. Its very important to see where the cables are and which are connected to the digitizer. These videos are a guide. Ipods like most things have a reset sequence. Meaning say you have a bad screen then change the screen but the ipod remember hey I had a bad screen. So you need to reset. Long and short of it if you have a white screen hold down the power button and the home button it should then show the apple logo and boot up. This video was actually good as it shows where you need to be most careful. However my only "nitpick" would be some replacement screens come with everything already attached so you don't need to remove the home button or the metal plate. Good job Jorge Lopez thanks!

Nice video, almost every video i saw didn't put the metal clip from the old screen to the new screen. But you did. But after conecting the digitizer cable at the back of the logic board, you need to remove ALL fingerprints on the circuit board. If you dont it can and up in disaster like all other peaple have.

Yeah, If you want to buy Molybdenum wire and carefully use it as a wire saw to separate the original LCD from the digitizer and spend an extra 2 hours cleaning it afterwards then have to purchase the UV resin and UV light source to cure it after you adhere the new digitizer to the salvaged LCD. The only time you would do that is on the iPhone 5's where the LCD/Digitizer combo costs $185 bucks.

My ipod was broken already with a couple pieces from the top right corner missing, when my mom spilled water on it. It was completely submerged for maybe five minutes before she realized. My ipod has been in rice for three days, but the screen won't work at all. It still makes screenshot noises and charging noises, but the screen remains black. If I were to do this repair, would I have a working screen again? My ipod is far beyond the warranty anyways.
