hey guys, i just bought a replacement digitizer for an iphone 5, i ordered the digitizer that already came bundled with the camera, ear piece and all that. i took out the original broken lcd/ digitizer, and put the new one in and re attached all the cables, and everything was good so far. But when i go to snap in the new lcd everything snaps in just fine except for the bottom part. i have taken the lcd off again mulitple times but it is still the bottom glass that will not slip into the bezel. i have no idead what the problem could be, so i am just coming here to see if this problem is common, because i do not want to force anything and break the glass. this is the first iphone 5 glass i am trying to replace so maybe it is just a minor error i am doing, i dont know. here are the pictures of the bottom of the glass still sticking out of the bezel
Most likely case—you’ll need to do some filing on a slight frame imperfection of the iPhone from the original drop. I often have to ‘massage’ the fit at the bottom for 5 minutes or so. And yes, I have broken the frame in the corner trying to do this. go slow and be careful.
Hi there could u give us a clean picture of the frame of the iPhone 5 with the screen out? Your frame might be bent at the corner and in turn the screen will be a mil or 2 out from fitting.
