I’ve cracked many screens in my time, Apple and android products alike. I managed to be lucky once with only the glass of my iPad cracking but the LCD still working, so I only had to get the glass replaced instead of buying a new one.<br /><br />-<a href="http://www.expertcomputerrepairphiladelphia.com/" rel="nofollow">Darryl</a>Darryl Housandnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8774807226689612975.post-82704569410707416822013-02-10T17:39:18.016+11:002013-02-10T17:39:18.016+11:00Backing Fracking?

I have worked out when the screen goes that weird blue colour - if I "smear" it aggressively with the palm of my hand over and over about 300 times, sometimes I'll catch a little bit of normal screen and drag it back to life. I know these are all technical terms you may struggle with however this technique has been perfected by my own actual 12 year old, who still wants to play Mine Craft on it. Whatever works. It's just not a crowd friendly technique, especially on a plane, where I ignore questioning gazes around me especially if I'm determined to read my book.Lisa@Giving back Girlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8774807226689612975.post-77563888829665426472013-01-08T22:34:14.382+11:002013-01-08T22:34:14.382+11:00Get a nice sturdy case for it so even if it gets d...Get a nice sturdy case for it so even if it gets dropped it will hopefully survive! <br />Mine has been in a case since I took it out of the box! :)<br />I do wonder if you could have replaced the screen on the old one (most Asian stores do it) and it would have been ok? It does pay to have a geek to ask I guess! <br />If all else fails buy the 5 year old an iPod touch and don't give her the iPad! (works for us) <br />Long live the new iPad!

Kind of like a fairy god-mother but with weedier biceps. (Note: my husb = geek)Sharonnoreply@blogger.com
