Messed up Ipad & Iphone due to non OEM parts

Post new topic

The replacement glassis much thicker sand lacks sensitivity. It's pretty annoying, having to tilt the Ipad until one can make a letter or something appear. Moreover, the display is faulty in 2 ways. On the smaller side, there are tiny colourful horizontal lines appearing, maybe 2 cm wide. And on the long side, there are horizontal colours replacing the usual vieing area. Those are about 3 cm wide.

Wish, I had left the cracked screen, as it was fully functional.

Has anyone had their Ipad repaired over here? How much die an authoried dealer charge?  Can independent repair shops get OEM parts? Is there a maket for damaged Ipads?

All I've been using it for has been as QR reading for my banking app.

Hope you will share your experience with repair shops.
