So the rim of my iPad is a little dented out of shape. Did anyone else have this problem and did the screen still work? Or another product to suggest?

My rim was a little dented too. I just straightened it as best as I could and it worked fine.

You will have to straighten it but after that it should work out well for you it is aluminum so it is easy to work with hope this helps

the rim of my iPAD was dented at one edge. I could still fit the screen and it worked. The screen will work whether or not the rim is dented. If the rim is dented too much, you may not be able to fit the screen very well on the rim.

My corner was smashed in. What you can't see until you remove the old screen is that there is a little plastic frame that goes around the digitizer. I was unable to replace that as it is assuredly a factory installed item probably installed by a robot or something. I tried every way I could to get it installed with negative results. I left it out and finished the install. There is a small gap around my entire screen as a result of leaving it out. My ipad works great. My only other recommendation is to purchase a digitizer with the adhesive already in place. It's much easier then trying to line on the double sided tape. My corner was smashed in.

Yes, the case will still glue to the glass... However since you're already buying this you have to be a little handy... grab needle nose pliers and bend it as strait as possible... then you got yourself a working ipad

I ran my ipad over (was in the winter guess it fell out of my bag) and bent back housing along with shattering my LCD and screen. I just bent the ipad back as best I could and the screen fits just fine! Just do a test fix before you use the adhesive and get it squared away!

You will have to try and straighten the bent corners before replacing the front. If there are any rough spots, you will need to file or sand them down too. This will make for a better fit

I called ASUS and they said I had the first generation and I placed the order. I installed the screen and it had the x axis problem. So.... I bought an ipad. I know there's away to hack in and fix the problem, but that's over my head.

I don't sell stuff but I have bought that itam. Make sure the black rubber part is fully around your iPad the right way. Then when you push the back piece on all of the edges need to be fully pushed into the rubber to where you don't feel the edges of the plastic it should stay of this is done right. Also again make sure everything is lined up right.

I would guess (not fact) there are so many refurbished ones is because, the glass breaks so easy. I know of two people having had their iPads slide out of their hands, within 24 hours of receiving them, and having the glass break. If they have bought insurance, like at Best Buy, they will just replace the iPad with a new one before fixing it for that customer. Apple should put a HUGE warning: iPad is light and slippery hold tight.

Hi Rick, Unfortunately we dropped out iPad and it didn't stop the screen smashing. We now have a Griffin case. Sorry for the late reply have been travelling and no wi-fi.

Please do not make the same mistake I made... it seems that you are in need of a screen replacement not a new LCD (since it still functions). I bought a new LCD to fix my mini only to learn, once I had changed it, that it had nothing to do with the damage.

Last week I lost my iPad in its Zagg case, and someone just returned it to the Verizon store where I bought it. She told them that she found it in her driveway. The Zagg case now has holes and skid marks on it! But the iPad, still inside it, works fine, and the keyboard still works fine! The iPad has a few dings on two edges only. I really can't believe it.

Is that the same as a screen protector? If it is, than it should still work perfectly. I myself have a similar cover for my ipad and I also have an additional screen protector and it does not affect the cover at all. I hope this answers your question

I had mine for a few months before I sold it. But it felt very solid. I think the back of the screen was indeed a bit flexible but not enough to cause any problem, and I had to press pretty hard to push it toward the screen.

The sad part is I dropped it in the bathtub and ruined it. I believe I threw it away. I can tell you this, it was just slightly bigger than the mini, and perfectly held it. My only criticism of the article is that the rubber used to make the screen stand up was not thick enough and it kept falling down at the tiniest jostling, sometimes all by itself, too. But it was so dang cute, if I get another iPad mini, I will definitely buy this again.

I personally haven't had this issue, but I've read reports of screen issues like that. You might need to send it in for replacement. I hear customer service is easy to work with.

John, I took mine off because it wasn't sitting on the surface perfectly and removing it made tactile response work a tiny bit better. Still, I'm thinking of purchasing a protective screen since the screen always looks smudged.

Well i have a for instance for u. I had a brand new, shiny one installed on my tablet when my frisky kitten bit the corner of my tablet in play and left a bite mark on the shield. Stuff happens. I didn't replace it because it was at the edge of my screen and didn't impact my view, but was good to have the spare in case &#128512;

Hasn't happened to mine...it's been on my iPad for 1.5 haven't changed it yet. I was thinking of moving to the anti-glare but as far as function, this cover has done its job.

Have had no trouble with ours. Possibly try reapplying it. Sorry we can't help more. Do you use a screen protector?
