For an easier repair, use our [product|IF371-002|fix kit|new_window=true] and follow [guide|98255|this shorter guide|new_window=true] to replace your iPhone’s entire screen. | | For more advanced fixers, this guide will help you replace ''only'' the iPhone 8 LCD LCD and digitizer assembly (a.k.a. the bare “front panel”). This requires you to transfer several components from your original screen to the new one before installing it—including the front-facing camera, earpiece speaker, LCD shield plate, and home button assembly. | | For all screen/display repairs, '''it's important to carefully transfer the original home/Touch ID sensor onto the new display in order for it to function.''' The solid-state home button is paired to its original logic board by Apple, so replacing it will render it unusable. | | '''Note''': If your iPhone’s auto brightness feature does not work properly after your screen repair, make sure your iPhone is updated to [https://support.apple.com/ios/update|iOS 12]. True Tone functionality is disabled after a screen replacement, even when using an original Apple screen. |
