I got a call from Manual Meza who lives in Windsor California (95492)
about his son Ivan's iPhone 4. The upper glass had been shattered and is the case with that phone the glass pieces had started to drop off the device. Remember inthe the earlier iPhones, the glass wasn't tempered so it would have cracks through it without crumbling away.
Ivan and his dad got here at 2:30 in the afternoon. The glass was crumbling away like soft cornbread. I told them I would have the repair done in 90 minutes and come back by at 4PM.
This repair is far more complex that the 3G or 3GS model iPhones. The complexity stems from the screen resolution. The i4 screen has four times the resolution of the ones previous, this is the retina comparisoned dispaly. To make sure the digitizer correctly picks up *accurately* the finger movement, Apple has FoxConn (the subcontracting manufacturer of iPhones) to glue the upper glass and the digitizer and LCD screeen all together as a single part so each pixel lays perfectly over the over.
Because those parts are all built and sold together, it is a real expensive part.
I had his repair finished up and ready for them at 4PM. The total cost was $140
