iPad 2 repair

[91GriggsGT]

Does anyone know where I can take my iPad 2 to have the docking connector replaced? Looking for somewhere trustworthy and local.

Thanks

How did you already break that???

Beats the shit out of me. Went to plug it in and didn't hear the little beep like i normally do. Hit the home button and that didn't work either. Reset everything and kept dicking with it an finally got the home key to work but no charge.

I use the shit out of it and even have it in a case to protect everything. The dock port looks fine. Nothing broke or anything. Did some searching and looks like others have had the issue too.

OK, so quick update. I got the damn thing to charge finally, but now I am thinking something is loose. I plugged in the charger, and started pressing and squeezing by the connection on the ipad, and thats when it started charging.

I would still like to have someone take a look at it and correct whatever is the REAL issue.

So I still am needing help finding someone / some place reputable.

Thanks

Try a different charging cable.

I've used this guy atleast 10 times. He has fixed ipads, ipods, and two ipads for me.

But he is a Chicago Cubs fan.

Tried half dozen of them all with the same result.

Figured I'd bring this thread up from the dead as a friend of mine was asking for a recommendation on who to fix the broken screen on his iPad 2. I contacted the guy below and he's asking $125 and 24-48 hours to fix it. Is this pretty reasonable? Any other recommendations on who can fix this?

You can get a used, near-mint-condition, 16 GB, WiFi-only iPad 2 for $200...

Do they even support that thing anymore?

They do, but it lags really bad on the latest IOS because of the ancient specs.

I think she has a 64 GB so it will likely be more expensive

I do not know what iOS version she's using but even if they no longer support it, for what she's using it for will be fine.
