This is very good because it protects iPhones from getting scratched in your pocket. The back side of the iPhone is the most vulnerable to scratches, but the CandyShell protects it completely.

Label them as follows; Metal Back Screws, aluminum back case, and motherboard - lay them out on the workspace in this order with a small space between them for the other iPhone components and replacement screen to lie in.The tools and equipment required for this repair are; a case opener, a small Phillips screwdriver, a paperclip to eject the SIM tray and the iPhone replacement screen, once you have these to hand and the paper labels lined up.

Taking good care of your iPhone 3G is important, especially since it has that horrible plastic back that's vulnerable to cracks. As you know, cracks on the white iPhone 3G appear to be the most visible, but that doesn't mean they don't exist in black models. I'm still not sold on the iPhone 3G so I don't have one, but if I did I'd take extra good care of it because I wouldn't want to pay another $200 or $300 to replace it.
