I considered a sarcastic comment about how in depth this process was… but your video and the info you provided is top notch. Great job, and thanks!
I’m just going to eat $300 and get another iPad for my daughter after I botched the digitizer replacement. Note: removing the face on this particular model was more difficult than any other I’ve repaired.
Thank you!

Just used this video to successfully replace both touch FPCs I managed to mangle while changing a digitiser on an iPad 7. Screwed up 2 FPCs with my first attempt then watched this video and successfully replaced - all now working 😁 Thanks Jessie, brilliant video as always. Just purchased one of your seek pro stands from Replacebase in the UK 👌
That's amazing! Congrats.
And thank you for purchasing a Seek Stand.
Thanks for saying what materials you use, helps a lot compared to other videos I’ve seen
Happy to help! 🙏
Great job man. Very informative video as well. Thanks for committing the time to do so.
Glad it was helpful!
Congratulations! You're Louis Rossman's favorite dude. He can't seem to stop mentioning you.
Haha thank you 🙏
I managed to damage both of the fpc connectors on an ipad 7... I was only changing a charge port (which one of your vids helped me with removing a perfectly good digitiser and lcd) now I'm changing both fpc sockets on the board and the other side on the digitiser ribbon. Plus I managed to drop the good lcd.... I think I should stick to games consoles.....screens are a pain in the a**
Think I need more practise, thanks for your vids they have really helped!
Oh no. That's the worse! Hope you get it all resolved
@@VCCBoardRepairs all connectors changed successfully! Just need to clean and put back together! Fingers crossed!
Hi Jesse great video, just wodering that even if the lcd/digitizer FPC conenector are not working is still possible to put the ipad in DFU mode to recover the data??
Not that's not possible
Only way to get data is to boot it up, unlock the screen and trust the PC
thanks...very good video
Thank you
Thanks for showing the whole process! Love it.
Glad you liked it!
Good Job. Hi from Moscow 🙌
Spaisiba!
Nice clean work Jesse. Great job. Thanks for the video
Thank you! Appreciate it
hello there new subscriber camming from Louis Rossman channel... nice videos very educational congrats!
Can I ask you how you make the meter (volt amp) showing on the screen of the pc when you turn the ipad on?
Your power supply dosent have usb connectivity... which software and hardware are you using??? thx keep it going we need you
Thanks for the sub! I am using the Power Z USB Meter along with their PC software. Then with OBS, I just create a source to share that software on the screen.
You can get it here: amzn.to/3oJDvlF
@@VCCBoardRepairs ah ok i also have the power-z usb normal one.. didnt knew about obs.... thx for reply
Awesome Man. 👌
Sir how do we check the fpc connector is damaged or display is damaged
visually inspect it.
and diode mode the pins
Nice job and great video as always Jesse 👍
Always appreciate your support!
Did you change your temp & fan speed when installing the connector?
Yes! I believe it was 400c/80 air.
You can see it on the upper right corner
I just replaced the digitizer on my daughters iPad 7 and now the touch screen is not working. I suspect this is the problem but I already messed it up once, how can I send it to you for repair?
Does the connectors on the board look damaged?
I just have an ipad with that problem! LOl good video!
So then I published this at the right time! haha
I got the connector from donor iPad and it works perfectly fine , it is stronger .
That's awesome!
Solder 🐐 💪🏾💪🏾
Thanks brother! 🙏
Hii Sir plz share me ur Quick 861 Temp and Air settings
Hi. You can see the hot air settings on the upper right of the screen
@@VCCBoardRepairs Thanks a lot Brother,so you use 400 even for Ic removal?
Usually yes.
I need the thing that you plug into the FPC to be fixed
How much do you charge for this if I mail in a iPad 9th generation

Awesome 😎😎😎
Thank you!
It’s also easy job for me
Easy peasy!
Maybe I'm just lucky, but in 100's of ipad digitizer replacements I have never disconnected the battery and still have never blown a backlight. Sometimes I'm even connecting the lcd while the ipad is on

🙏🙏🙏
dude, this is just one, if not the, best showcase on how to do work like this.
outstanding!
I do hate this type of connector. Everybody should use ZIF connectors instead. god damn it, apple.. one wrong move and these f.. are broken. I got an ipad here that has *BENT* connectors and it's near impossible to bend them to be straight, so the touchscreen works half and half not and who knows what that can cause. LUCKILY the cables are glued between the digitizer and the LCD, so no easy way to repair that, without replacing the whole damn thing.
why did it break? because you have to take the WHOLE DAMN TABLET apart, just to replace a very aged battery.
I hate apple sometimes...
Thank you!
And yes, these connectors break so easy 😂
