Repair the cracked glass face of an Apple iPhone 3G

very good presentation with some humor. The process applies to many other devices too.
I always use latex gloves, unpowdered, when handling the innards of gizmos and especially clear materials.
The tape may not hold after the effects of time, temperature variations, and general deterioration.
Also, checking on iFixIt, the parts list doesn't specifically indicate front glass face plate but
"iPhone 3G Front Panel, Includes touchscreen glass and integrated digitizer. Does not include adhesive strips. This item does not work in the iPhone 3GS." Product code: IF137-000-1

That was very funny. Thank you for sharing it. Please repair some more stuff and post how you do it.

I think the tape you used was too cheezy, like it was from the 97 cent store...
Use 'carpet tape' that you buy from the hardware store. Costs about 5 bucks and is made of thin fabric with really sticky stuff on both sides.
P.S.
Does this set of instructions apply to 1st gen iPhones too?
Thanks!
