So I’m sitting on a cruise ship and…

Hello there cruisers!

I say “cruisers” because if you’ve ever been on a cruise ship, that’s what they call you.  A crusier.  Ok, I’m good with it.

Normally when I’m on vacation I don’t really need to talk about work.  It’s a good time to decompress, forget about the normal day-to-day worries and just relax.  When we were all sitting at the dinner table, I struck up a conversation with the newlywed couple next to us.  Finally, the question of came up “what do you do?”

“I own a small business that repairs iPhones, Smartphones, tablets and computers” I said.

So he then pulls out his Sony Xperia and says “can you fix this?!?  Brilliant!

So sitting at the table I snapped this picture and told him that I’d blog about it.  Thanks Cale, after a few days on the cruise ship spending time with you and Lauren it’s now obvious that we have made some great friends.  Next time I visit Florida, I’ll bring a back glass with me and take care of that cracked component for you.  It’ll only cost you 3 mai tais 😉

So, even in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico it’s difficult to get away from the business.  I guess that’s a good problem, right?  Well, I’m back to it and I’ll be right here knocking out some more blogs (and some amazing newsletters are in the works as well!) from the comfort of my “dry land office”.  Ugh, who wouldn’t rather be working from Cozumel?

Have a good morning.  Ryan

 

 

Samsung Galaxy S5 Glass Repairs at home? Think about it.

Hello friends,

We sell some “do it yourself” parts, but please be warned, that attempting to remove the glass from the front of a Samsung Galaxy S5 is not an easy task. I don’t really care how easy “they” show you on YouTube…whomever “they” are! You can’t simply apply a hairdryer and wait for 10 minutes and expect the screen to peel away cleanly. In fact, the LCD under it is NOT going to make it through the operation…kind of like this:

Yes, the glass is off! But everything under it is now destroyed. Don’t say I didn’t warn you…

The GLASS ONLY repair on a Galaxy S5 should only be done by someone that knows what they are doing. In fact, I’ll be happy to report that Mission Repair CAN separate the glass from the LCD, but it never looks 100% again; so we DO NOT offer this service at this time.

We purchase complete assemblies for the Galaxy S5 which includes a new glass,digitizer and LCD that’s assembled together in a clean room environment. This is the ONLY way that we can provide a quality repair that our discerning customers demand.

Now, on the other hand, if you’re in the market for a repair that’s sub-par, we’d be happy to give that to you as well. I’m just kidding, I can’t do it.

There’s a lot of discussion about the Galaxy S5 screen (glass only) repair on the internet – just remember that you get what you pay for.

Thanks everyone, I’m just about out of here for the day…talk to you again soon. Ryan
