My research also helped me identify the location of the wifi antenna - directly below a patch of glass that, broken long before, had started lifting away from the bezel. (Interestingly it seems that the metal back of the case is the most expensive, but then that is the part that comes with the precious Apple logo engraved upon it). Parts, including the replacement touchscreen glass, are readily available for a modest price from these sites and elsewhere.
#Replace ipad screen cracked
Also good is iMore's step-by-step guide to replacing a cracked or broken screen. I particularly liked the crowdsourced amendments on the iFixit front panel replacement guide, which pools the benefit of various people's experiences of carrying out the repair. A quick Google search revealed plenty of self-help tutorials on fixing a broken iPad screen. I had remembered seeing a BBC report a few months back about a do-it-yourself iPad repair. I suggested a potentially less costly and greener alternative: a repair. Thinking to use up a spare pot of birthday money, my son immediately grabbed my wife's laptop and started scouring Amazon for iPad deals to buy a replacement.
A week or two previously, the tablet's wifi had stopped working. It was a shock, but fortunately, we already had a plan in place. It had survived many months with several cracks, but that morning he had slammed it down in a fit of temper and the toughened glass had finally given way. Cradling it carefully, I showed him the shattered touchscreen on his iPad 2. I had some bad news for my son a couple weeks ago.
