Fun fact: recent models of really any handheld devices are beginning to trend towards being physically incapable of being repaired at home, no removable backs, stupidly difficult to remove components, etc.
there might be some problem with them rotating or being the wrong way round. It might be different for permanent ones, but with my single-use lenses, I can put them in either direction and any rotation and they still work, which might break polarization

Imagine staring at a blank white screen while wearing sunglasses for hours and seemingly swiping at random with a stylus only to reveal that you’ve been making an artistic masterpiece in a digital art program all this time
As novel an idea this is, it would make more sense for manufacturers (in the future) to include a polarising layer that can be activated or deactivated electorinically, in conjunction with circular polarising glasses (such as those used in cinemas) which would make rotation possible. On the other hand, I prefer to deal with people looking at my screen in public by staring directly at them Christopher Walken style.
@@pvic6959 Normal sunglasses don't have that kind of polarisation but yes, if someone happened to have a pair of the specifically polarised glasses then NO PRIVACY FOR YOU!
The likely reason it didn't work with the the original glass is that there is an additional linear polarizing layer inside the glass proper to reduce reflections. Nokia used to call this ClearBlack in their smartphones. You can easily check for this by holding the original digitizers one after another and rotating one 90°, like when testing polaroid lenses.
I've seen this "privacy screen" technique done on computer screens and iirc phones years ago, it's really nothing crazy, you just have to understand how LCD screens work idk if it was around a decade ago (I think it might be the case, I'd have to scan UA-cam and maybe even some forums to find the first mentions), but at least 5 years easily (I wouldn't be surprised if it'd be 10+) no offence, ofc, and good job for the guy for doing it first on an iPad, just saying you have to be pretty naive about screens (you may be just young which is fine, no shame, treating a decade like a long time suggests it, 2014 feels like a year ago to me and I don't feel like technology has progressed that much: everything's faster, bigger, more fancy, but no breakthrough except maybe AI, but the theory for machine learning has been around for a very long time, I remember learning Lisp to work on early AI, we just never had this insane computational power to make anything impressive with it (it was mostly just math, tho you had things like "Cleverbot" which felt impressive at the time) before very recently) to consider it "magic"
The original digitizer is glass only, all the conductive traces are dopped right onto it. The aftermarket ones use a plastic digitizer layer adhered to a piece of glass instead. Plastics often change the polarization of light.
imagine if someone made a “dynamic polarizer” that can be turned on and off so you can have a nice, visually secure screen with neat shades to see the screen with, And if Apple were to do this, you know they’d sell the polarizer glasses separately for something like $150
Bad idea. If it will be some people just would get the same glasses so they would see what's on your screen even without polarizer. But now there is very few people that have polarizer glasses so by now it's still impressive till it won't be invested
@@offinse9916 The device doesn't need to be greatly affected by the lack of glasses, there could be a hardware switch to toggle polarization, we have the tech for it, as it's how some calculator screens work (I think). Even if we don't, interchangeable screens would be an option, a normal screen would come with the device, and a non polarizing screen could be ordered for the device in question.
the problem with a messy screen when it is paired with unoriginal touchscreen glass maybe due to the fact, that each screen is calibrated differently and is adjusted to its own glass (as the glass can contribute to polarization of the light coming through), so only replacement of the combined screen + glass will work
I would of broke the LCD just removing the first layer. Iv broken 2 LCDs just changing digitizers on iPad models out of many I have done correctly. Done this mod on 2 desktop screens and 1 laptop though.
I have polarized sunglasses that I wear inside for light sensitivity reasons but it results in the literal opposite effect. I think this would be a far more enjoyable experience to have 😅
For the directionality of the polarized layer, it might be interesting to make custom glasses with both eyes having polarized filters at a 90 degree ofset. It might be a bit weird to use but if you really must be be able to hold your ipad both ways it might be a decent option. Only problem is that one eye will see a white screen, or both eyes half of the screen depending on how you orient them on the glasses. Maybe having both at a 45 degree angle would be better (still 90 degrees apart from eachother). Also, a blank background when you can only see it with one eye isn't the worst thing to have.
Seeing your struggle with the battery makes me glad my phone's damage made the battery replacement significantly easier. The battery provided its own heat and swole up making it so much easier to remove lol
Love it! This would confuse so many people! Would have loved this mod back in my high school days... well, that's if the iPad had been invented in the 90's!! 🤣😂
Imagine if Apple made a "privacy mode" in control center that somehow hid the polarizer from view. It could also display a message, such as a pair of glasses image with the text "Privacy mode is on" and they could sell special glasses that filter out the color of the text and image. Edit: I edited my comment after it got >200 likes omg guys i ruined it aaaaaaaaah
🤔 I wonder if it would be possible to implement the same circular/radial polarization that is commonly used in modern day 3D stereoscopic movies, which would allow for the screen to be rotated and still maintain proper polarization.

Massive fan of this Mod, I'm actually planning to do this with an iPhone 7 lying around and its going to be my most modified iphone I've ever done, However it could be very destructive and costly! Love your content!
Is it terrifying that I thought about this a few weeks before? Before knowing about the tempered glass “Anti chusmas” or something like that, I had thought why not create some lenses that only you can see the screen of your cell phone? That idea crossed my mind again and again, but since I’m not an inventor I said “Someone is going to create it” and I found you and it’s wow
I did this a long time ago using a calculator that was able to be connected to a PC via com connection and I was able to remove the polarizing filter and program the information to scroll on screen during a test in high school. I used my new glasses with polarizing lenses while everyone else would see just a turned off calculator sitting on my desk. I loved challenges like that. Never though that something like this was possible on modern LCD screens.
You can also just buy a privacy screen and stick it over your smartphone or Ipad, which does exactly the same job without physically messing with your ipad's screen.
Neat. Circular, rotatable, polarising filters might be something to consider, the type screwed onto camera lenses. The glasses would look really weird, but the angle would be infinitely adjustable so you could you switch tablet orientation without having to switch glasses (a little rotation of the filter would do it).
Nope, that won't work. Cpl filters on cameras are still linear polarizers just with a circular polarizer underneath it as a second layer so that the light meter in-camera can function properly. It could work if the screen was emitting circular polarized light, and then you can use a cinema's 3d glasses which is basically inverted of the cpl filters on camera. It has a circular polarizer as the first layer and a linear polarizer as the second. The projector emits circular polarized light spiraling in clockwise and anti-clockwise to the left and right eye. (Imagine light going in spirals like a spring towards you). Therefore, you can rotate your head comfortably. Which means it is not possible to use a cpl filter since lcd's emit *linear* polarized light due to it's nature.
@@unliving_ball_of_gas Yes it would work. Instead of using glasses with oval or rectangular lenses, you use ones with round circular ones. So that when you rotate the Ipad you would then also rotate the lens of the glasses in their frame in the same direction.
I thought the same, however I am not sure that it would work. I have not read in depth on the subject yet, however there does seem to be some indication that there are limitations to implementing circular polarization on LCD screens, due to them being fundamentally linear polarization. It seems it may require an entirely purpose-built display that projects light in a circular polarized arrangement to get radial polarization to work. I would absolutely love to see someone hack together something like that.
The clear glue under the battery can be easily removed with rubbing your thumb back and forth. Try using an slight chunky peanut butter, the oils will help dissolve the glues(maybe the coatings too) and the chunks help with abrasion without scratching, useful for removing tars

Dude, you should rock the LCD connector *sideways* to disconnect it, don't rock it backwards like you did at 5:35. I've straight up ripped the upper half of the LCD connector off the logic board before by disconnecting it the way you did, the connector is rather delicate. Rocking it sideways instead avoids undue stress on the logic board connector.
The reason the glass is messing with the colours is probably because it's tempered glass. If you look at tempered glass with polarised glasses it will look colourful. Get a non-tempered glass display.
Moved up to a pricier version for better screen resolution and processor ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA , but battery drains faster, and not having a button for control of apps turns out to be a problem. Touch ID is harder to use than with the old button on the front. Can't really see the better screen resolution or see increase in speed, etc with better processor
Apple (after seeing this video, on the next iPad): **removes polarizer and sells separate iGlasses (also serialized and paired to each iPad) for $999 to see what’s on the iPad screen.**
Apple: this is the all new ipad to feature an invisible screen only you can see. But u might wonder, how can you see this gorgeous invisible screen, well look no further, introducing our all new I-glass which u can use to see what's on ur invincible screen. The ipad and I-glass are sold separately with a price tag of 999 and 1199 respectively.
it was done long time ago. refurbishing, changing polarizer films from iphone 4. Same story goes with macbooks. You should try investigating more to proceed such operation to save your time.
Ever since I was seven years old, I've wondered if it would have been possible to make something like computer screens with filters that make them visible only through special glasses. Then all these Apple Vision Pro and similar goggles came out that dissuaded me a bit from these thoughts... And then I saw this video... Everything was ready and no one had told me!
Dear Hugh I really enjoy watching your videos. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. I have a question regarding Samsung Smartphones: Samsung limits the voltage the battery gets charged to after some houndred charging cycles. That means if you change the battery, the new battery will never get fully charged up. How do you deal with that when changing your batteries? I know there is a tool by samsung for resetting the battery cycles but it only supports the S20 and newer phones. Samsung Service centers reset them when replacing the battery so there must be a way to do it without rooting the phone. Maybe you know a solution to this problem, i think it would be an idea for one of your videos. Greetings

I have not read in depth on the subject yet, however there does seem to be some indication that there are limitations to implementing circular polarization on LCD screens, due to them being fundamentally linear polarization. It seems it may require an entirely purpose-built display that projects light in a circular polarized arrangement to get radial polarization to work. I would absolutely love to see someone hack together something like that.
Imagine someone is looking at the blank screen while you are actually watching something
Apple vision budget pro
This would work much better with circular polarization than linear polarization, as then the screen can be any orientation.
The clear glue under the battery can be easily removed with rubbing your thumb back and forth. Try using an slight chunky peanut butter, the oils will help dissolve the glues(maybe the coatings too) and the chunks help with abrasion without scratching, useful for removing tars
Mother : billys being weird again.
Father: what is he doing now?
Mother he's playing on his ipad.
Father: what's wrong with that?
Mother: he keeps tapping on the screen and rage quitting but it's just a blank screen.

🤣🤣
The parents after using Billy's glasses: Oh...
I don’t get it
It would be fun to convert several screens like this- but perhaps I've seen John Carpenter's "They Live" one time too many 😎
Oh @hootentom I'm so glad you brought up that movie!! One of my favorites
@@nancyoffenhiser4916 I'm also glad it was brought up as it's one of my favourit movies. 😎😵💫
Fun? Looks like long hours, money, and extreme patience for no real marketable result.
Good to use at school
Imagine seeing Hugh out in public using this iPad, and then someone with a polarizer glasses walks by.
Uh oh.
lol
Just an rational question,
What is more frightening for you ❓
Possibly damaging your device just to ensure your screen's only visible to you not to everyone around you or being unaware that someone wearing similar glasses is sitting right beside you and silently judging you and you are completely unaware of that? 😂😅

“Honey why is your white screen moaning”
*clapping sfx*
Dude, you should rock the LCD connector *sideways* to disconnect it, don't rock it backwards like you did at 5:35. I've straight up ripped the upper half of the LCD connector off the logic board before by disconnecting it the way you did, the connector is rather delicate. Rocking it sideways instead avoids undue stress on the logic board connector.
The reason the glass is messing with the colours is probably because it's tempered glass. If you look at tempered glass with polarised glasses it will look colourful. Get a non-tempered glass display.
Cool, now I can watch black-orange youtube on a plane!
Mom: why is your Ipad moaning?
Moved up to a pricier version for better screen resolution and processor ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA , but battery drains faster, and not having a button for control of apps turns out to be a problem. Touch ID is harder to use than with the old button on the front. Can't really see the better screen resolution or see increase in speed, etc with better processor
WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
iPad kids bouta go crazy over this😂
5:16 "after about 5 hours" !!!!!! And that was just the beginning.
10:35 You Can See A Little Bit The Icons On The Screen
He just said that
0:01 My friend I believe it’s called Schizophrenia. 😂
its not.
its called buying polarized glasses and removing smth on the screen
@@yobitsgamingyeah, and it’s called a joke.
@@yobitsgaming no shit Sherlock
@@Flowerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrlanguage. There could be children watching.
This was so fascinating to watch. So amazing and you did put in a lot of efforts into making this!
Try not removing that many layers from the screen. Maybe 1 of them is for color stuff. Try to remove only the top 1, see if that will work.
Instructions unclear: my whole world is white and I can only see it with glasses on
Hey Hugh! I love your videos and I’ve been watching you for years now! So fun to see what you’re up to next. I hope you’re doing good!
I am literally using an iPad with a mouse and keyboard
HOW?!
@@stephaniepena387you dont know?
@@stephaniepena387my cousins have it
Bruh
So?
Bro really said trust the process. And his right!😊
bro predicted apple vision
Apple (after seeing this video, on the next iPad): **removes polarizer and sells separate iGlasses (also serialized and paired to each iPad) for $999 to see what’s on the iPad screen.**
Imagine beating a game speedrun world record and everyone thinks you watching a white screen
Me watching this on my ipad
Its time.
Same
Me tooo
Same
SAME W/ ME!
Apple: this is the all new ipad to feature an invisible screen only you can see. But u might wonder, how can you see this gorgeous invisible screen, well look no further, introducing our all new I-glass which u can use to see what's on ur invincible screen. The ipad and I-glass are sold separately with a price tag of 999 and 1199 respectively.
it was done long time ago. refurbishing, changing polarizer films from iphone 4. Same story goes with macbooks. You should try investigating more to proceed such operation to save your time.
I can only imagine what somebody would need to do this for in public 🤣
@@ProtoV33MK1 that's why privacy screen protectors do the job for that type of stuff
It looks like Eclipse glasses
Ever since I was seven years old, I've wondered if it would have been possible to make something like computer screens with filters that make them visible only through special glasses. Then all these Apple Vision Pro and similar goggles came out that dissuaded me a bit from these thoughts... And then I saw this video... Everything was ready and no one had told me!
Mom be like:why is that white screen iPad moaning
"Son why is your ipad moaning?"
Oh, uh dad! I don’t know! It’s just been making noises, and not turning on!
@@Unreal_lookin I see. We might have to fix it cause its just a white screen!
@@XavierIsSUPPERCOOL I think it’s just a glitch, it will fix by itself
@@XavierIsSUPPERCOOL trust me, I’ve done this before…
@@Unreal_lookin Ok well i guess you know technology more than I do
That was my first idea when I learned how screens work
7:52 Is the protective film over the display causing the issue?
Do this with an Iphone next please 🙏
Yeah

android users: *hehe boii*
only on old androids tho

Still no @@nikolasdigitalscrapbook

@bobek4144 but you can't remove the battery on it
Dear Hugh
I really enjoy watching your videos. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. I have a question regarding Samsung Smartphones: Samsung limits the voltage the battery gets charged to after some houndred charging cycles. That means if you change the battery, the new battery will never get fully charged up. How do you deal with that when changing your batteries? I know there is a tool by samsung for resetting the battery cycles but it only supports the S20 and newer phones. Samsung Service centers reset them when replacing the battery so there must be a way to do it without rooting the phone. Maybe you know a solution to this problem, i think it would be an idea for one of your videos.
Greetings
Another one of those endeavours where they were so preoccupied with achieving the unnecessary that they didn’t stop for one second to ask themselves if they should rather than finding out if they could
how do you find out how to do this 💀
i know right?
He probably copied the same thing from the invisible computer screen just only with a iPad
