TheCoolCube Internal Inner LCD Display Screen Repair Replacement for Ipod 5th Gen Video 30gb 60gb and 80gb

I was actually able to use my iPod for the first time in years, the old LCD had dead pixels and this LCD actually let me use the iPod again.

This is a perfect, flawless, new LCD screen that perfectly replaced the screen in my iPod. It comes with a thin plastic screen protector. Leave that in place until just before you install it, so you won't end up with any scratches on your new screen.You'll need to watch some YouTube videos to learn how to use spudgers correctly to open an iPod without damaging it or breaking your spudger. Watch several videos in case the one you picked glossed over some details. Realize that all the connectors for those tiny cables have tiny release levers that must be operated correctly to release the cable and the properly reconnect the cable when you're done.The biggest problem I had in the repair was getting the ribbon cables for the hard drive and the battery reconnected properly. If you fail to connect the cables just right, you'll get a "very low battery" warning, or Apple's frowning iPod screen. Just keep trying, and don't snap the case closed until you're sure everything is working correctly.

I used this to replace my iPod 5th Gen 5.5 Video, (iPod Classic) screen that had broken pixels from bad battery. Use tutorials on you tube and was a fairly easy repair, just pay attention to how to release the cables its easy to damage if you don't. Also this will will fix broken pixels and what not, but will not remove scratches you need to get a new front face for that.

Great value and replacement screen for my old iPOD. Make sure to view a video or two to make sure you are comfortable with the process of replacement.

Bought one of these screens to replace the original in my 5th Gen 60 GB model 1136; the new screen went in like a dream, fit perfectly and aligned properly on the frame pins. Very clear and bright display. I haven't yet run the unit long enough at one go to determine how it impacts battery life, but so far, I'm very pleased with this purchase.
