LCD Display Screen Replacement for iPod 5th Gen Video 30gb 60gb and 80gb

I cracked the original screen on my iPod Video 5.5 Gen while doing a battery and flash drive card mod. I ordered this replacement screen, and it showed up the next day. I installed it myself by following a few YouTube videos, and everything went smoothly. The screen has is working perfectly: no dead pixels, no glitches, just a bright, clear display. If you're restoring or modding your iPod, this is a great replacement option. Highly recommended!

This is a perfect, flawless, new LCD screen that perfectly replaced the screen in my iPod. It comes with a thin plastic screen protector. Leave that in place until just before you install it, so you won't end up with any scratches on your new screen. You'll need to watch some YouTube videos to learn how to use spudgers correctly to open an iPod without damaging it or breaking your spudger. Watch several videos in case the one you picked glossed over some details. Realize that all the connectors for those tiny cables have tiny release levers that must be operated correctly to release the cable and the properly reconnect the cable when you're done. The biggest problem I had in the repair was getting the ribbon cables for the hard drive and the battery reconnected properly. If you fail to connect the cables just right, you'll get a "very low battery" warning, or Apple's frowning iPod screen. Just keep trying, and don't snap the case closed until you're sure everything is working correctly.

I used this to replace my iPod 5th Gen 5.5 Video, (iPod Classic) screen that had broken pixels from bad battery. Use tutorials on you tube and was a fairly easy repair, just pay attention to how to release the cables its easy to damage if you don't. Also this will will fix broken pixels and what not, but will not remove scratches you need to get a new front face for that.

I ordered two of these. They both had a dead blue pixel at the top. The screen looked great otherwise but getting a dud twice in a row is seriously annoying for this price. I’m going to try other sellers.

If you know how to open an iPod (look online) and are careful like a surgeon this is not that difficult to do. Just take your time and don't rush with the very tiny parts that you have to connect and reconnect. Mine works flawlessly. Couldn't be happier with the new screen. While you are at it and the iPod is open do yourself a favor and replace the battery (and consider upgrading the hard disk size with an SD card adapter if you want to spend more $). If you still like your iPod this is the way to go.

I didnt know how to vote for thickness because it is a thin LCD screen that fits in the mentioned unit. So it's not that thick which is good, but I don't know if i should rate 5 stars for the right thickness, or because it's very thick, but it was a perfect fit. Turned on in me old iPad and worked grandly. Sadly I have found out it needs a new battery but at least I was able to see the screen and figure that put now. Display is bright and colorful. Nice new screen

Perfect replacement for my iPod Video 5th gen 30GB. I was upgrading everything on this thing and something was missing and it was that my screen needed an update. I had dead pixels on the screen. So I bought this LCD screen and I almost nutted at sight of this refurbishment of this baby. Looks like brand NEW. Really worth the value indeed. And if you know how to take things apart by your lonesome, and in particular iPods then hey this upgrade is for you. Worth every cent. This iPod is finally complete, running an iflash adapter with 128 GB, New front/back plate, New battery, running RockBox software, and Finally a New LCD screen. I'm excited to show this thing off.

Bought one of these screens to replace the original in my 5th Gen 60 GB model 1136; the new screen went in like a dream, fit perfectly and aligned properly on the frame pins. Very clear and bright display. I haven't yet run the unit long enough at one go to determine how it impacts battery life, but so far, I'm very pleased with this purchase.
