Solved Can I Replace Front Panel On Iphone 3Gs From My 3G Iphone 3Gs

Chosen Solution

I got my new iPhone 3GS the other day and dropped it, sadly enough the front panel glass or what it is got cracked quite alot. Is it possible for me to replace the front panel on my 3GS with the one from my 3G? Thanks for ur help..

Unfortunately, the front panel from the 3G is not cross-compatible with the 3GS and vice versa.

pins do not match.. I tried to be slick, but NOPE!

The pin connector to the 3g and 3gs are 100% different. You will need to purchase an iPhone 3Gs Glass Digitizer either from iFixit or from some other source. Make sure you don’t get cheap copies. Spend the extra couple of bucks and get the OEM screen. You’ll be glad you did. I may also recommend a case. :)
