Hi Guys,

Went out the other night and dropped the iphone 4 smashed the whole front glass screen, carried on using it for a while, but now the little glass pieces are falling out !! so ive gone into the apple store today and they have quoted me 139 to repair the screen !!! apparently it takes a long time to repair and its glass blah blah blah.

so anyway im looking for a suitable way of replacing the screen for cheap ! ive seen kits around to do it yourself but have no idea how easy this is, so if someone could advise on what to do i would be very pleased.

need to get this sorted asap so comments would be appreciated !

Thanks . :iphone4vert: <--
