BUYERS TAKE NOTE: To use this frame/bezel, you will have to [surgically] remove the Home button switch, its metal bracket and the plastic Home button top from your old iPod bezel/frame. I recommend using a fine-gauge soldering iron to soften the little plastic standoffs, then very carefully remove the metal bracket and replace it with your old one, re-melting the tips of the plastic standoffs to hold it in place. These are tiny, fragile components. Use care and don't overheat it!
I gave it 3 stars because the pre-cut adhesive works great, the bezel fits the Apple OEM digitizer glass perfectly, and that's worth something. It is my opinion that the seller should be explicit in stating that the buyer will have to remove the metal bracket and replace it with an OEM bracket/switch assembly from a real iPod. I was mislead about this, and I'm sure others will be as well.
However, with effort, it does work. Apple iPod Touch 2 iTouch 2nd Gen Mid Frame Chassis Bezel + Adhesive Repair / Replacement Part
Hello,
Product shipped well and was reasonably priced, but it is missing the button "circuitry" and therefore will not work unless you remove the medal plate from the new mid frame and replace it with the "stuff" from the old mid frame. The new mid frame contains the medal piece, but it is misleading in that it does not have the button "circuitry". Please realize this before finishing the repair. I have to order all parts again because of this.
Exactly as advertised. To use it you'll need the home button, the home button circuit, and the touch screen, all of which you have to buy separately. Other than that it fits perfectly in my iPod touch. Recommended if you know what are your doing.
Worked just as advertised. I have no mechanical ability and was able to complete the repair after watching several youtube videos. The new screen and frame work great. I beat the heck out of the old frame as I was removing the glass. Good cheap way to fix a broken ipod touch screen.
It's a great frame and a perfect fit although it does not include the home button besides it doesn't matter because it easy to install the working of the home button in it, would definitely buy from this place again if needed
Went perfectly with the repair of the "New LCD Screen Glass + Digitizer For Ipod Touch 2nd Gen" that needed to be replaced because the glass was cracked. You definitely want to get this along with the glass. Also, I didn't see it mentioned anywhere, but you'll need to transfer the button & inner workings (no big deal) because they're not included with this set.
you get exactly whats on the picture the thing is that it you dont really need it and it doesnt have the square button thing stuck to it like the original one so i dont know how its supposed to work if there is no square button attached on it..
I received my order in 3 days which was very quick. It was in perfect condition and was great that it was already put together and took less than 10 minutes to take out the old and put in the new. It even came with the tools which was great because I wasn't expecting them and the tools were better quality than ones I have ordered from a previous seller. I would definitely order from this seller again because everything was perfect and even better than expected! - Ipod Touch - Faceplates - Ipod 2g Glass Screen - Ipod Touch 2g'
