			=Replacing cracked glass on iPhones=
			CATUG member [[Jon Glass]] ''(sounds like an expert on the topic!)'' suggests:
			:How badly is it busted? If touch still works, then it's probably just the laminated external glass. It's probably easy enough to replace yourself. Check YouTube tutorials to see how easy.

			:If you do this, I would offer one suggestion. Lots of them show using a hair dryer or heating gun to loosen the glue holding the glass down. Don't. I have a sock full of rice. I simply popped that into the microwave for two minutes or so, and laid it over my phone. I did this a couple times to make sure the glue was good and soft, and all the pieces came off easily.
