Chosen Solution

Hi, I have an iPad 2 which had a cracked screen, so I went online and bought a replacement immediately. After the tear-down and replacement of the parts, I placed the screen on the device (without the adhesive) to test it before sticking it down. However the touch screen is completely unresponsive but all physical buttons work fine (home button, power, etc), So I wonder whether it’s a faulty digitizer? This problem is very frustrating as the iPad clearly works because the LCD is on, it syncs with iTunes etc. but without the touch screen, which without it makes it useless! So I’m wondering what i could do next? Should I contact the company who supplied the new screen and request a replacement as I assume it’s faulty OR should I assume that there is something else wrong on the iPad (ie logic board, faulty connector, etc!) Thanks for reading and hopefully someone has some advice or even a solution to my frustrating problem.

Before you start blaming the motherboard make sure the connections are pushed all the way into the connectors and retaining clips pushed down if it is then most likely a faulty screen

Hi I tried replacing digitizer on the iPad 2. After restarting the lower part of the screen seems to be irresponsive, while rest of the screen is working. Hence the problem is getting the onboard key pad to work. Please let me know what i could be doing wrong while replacing digitizer screen

I’ve attached a photo of the white lines that need to be pushed in right up to the host connector.

There is a ic chip for the touch mechanism that needs to be replaced it’s Micro soldering and a professional needs to do that

just give up and buy a new one
