iPod Repair, Small Electronics & Modification HQ

There IS something worse than water damage:

Cola damage! I got a broken ipod 5G 30GB cheap, and upon opening it, there were stains of dark brown liquid inside! It was sticky too. Yecchh! I dismantled the iPod down to all its parts. The simple mechanical ones I just dunked in warm soapy water, rinsed and dried off. The electronics are another matter. I'm afraid the hard drive and logic board are toast, but I did manage to salvage the LCD. As-is, ...

Backlight Issues.

I was recently doing full screen swap (Lcd, Digitizer and glass) on an iphone 3gs. accidentally put 3g parts in instead. The whole phone heated up until the screen was removed. now with the right parts in the backlight will not work, have tried more than one Lcd. The rest of the phone is working fine. Any ideas?

iphone 3G glass plate and back plate repair

My 3g has been busted to hell. I made the mistake of not buying a cover and dropped it enough that the back plate is scratched up and broken in places. There's actually an area of separation by the volume control... not nearly large enough to slip a credit card into, but definitely visible.

New technique for separating click wheels

The video on YouTube shows somebody separating the face from the click wheel like he was shucking oysters. :=) Most of the people who have tried it themselves report it's not that easy.
