Maxim Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) Something tells me that it'll require a lot of soldering of tiny little pins. It's a 30-pin connector, plus the ground, so it'll require a steady hand. A quick Googling turned up a couple pages: http://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/35094/How+do+I+replace+the+iPod+Touch+2nd+Gen.+Dock+Connector http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iPod-Touch-2nd-Generation-Teardown/586/1 Good luck to you sir!

Also its more bang for my buck, more real estate for my dollar if you catch my drift. its like the Costco of streetwalkers. I was hoping for 150 . I was hoping she would let me put it in her butt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbles1215 Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the info i have a steady hand the problem will be the very small sodering connections so it will take me about 2 hours to get the solder peices cut to the right size and another 2 hours to get them soldered in. The grounds will be alot easier plus i have to replace the battery, lcd, headphone jack, and the digitizer so about a 5 hour project; but its $50 vs. 200 for a new one. And thanks for the luck i'll need it. Edited February 16, 2012 by bubbles1215 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbles1215 Posted February 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) well i screwed up when i was taking the old connector off and broke a different chip off of the logic board so it ruined the whole thing but i was just going to fix it and sell it anyway but i had already bought a used 32gb off ebay for a decent price so im not to mad. oh well nothing can be done now sa la vi thanks for the help Edited February 19, 2012 by bubbles1215 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
