Can anyone assist me with where to go to get my iPhone 4 repaired as i have cracked the screen. I know you can do it through apple etc. but I am looking for a cheap and easy option. It is still usable just a pain in the backside with cracks all over the screen. Not sure if there is a previous thread as i have not really skimmed through.

Surely there is somewhere that does it fairly cheap as every 3rd iPhone i see has a cracked screen. If there isn't does someone wana sit down and nut it out, we could make a killing lol...

Any help would be great.

Everyone knows someone with a cracked iPhone screen. I think they look cool. Kind of edgy.

I've broken two screens on my ipod touch and replaced them myself. There are also heaps of videos on youtube on how to go about replacing the screen. You do have to be careful, but it's pretty easy.

They'll just try to inject their 'special resin' onto it.

Which is actually just a form of "superglue" gel, as I learned from a friend who worked for them.
I've touched up a windscreen with super glue in gel form myself since then and it has held up fine for years.
It may be worth a try on the iPhone.
