Fixing IPhone 3GS LCD Screen

* Update...So the new LCD came in the mail with all the tools needed to fix it. It was quite easy to change out the bad one. I thought about taking pictures but decided I should just link the youtube video that i used which explained out how to do it.

Heres the link, hope it helps http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFtuew6a1_0

So, I have had my IPhone for 1 year and 8 months now...Overall I feel like I have taken good care of it, always using a cover to protect it form scratches and drops. Surprisingly it hasn't been enough though as after a 4 foot drop the LCD decided to split diagonally. which over time has caused dead pixels to form around the cracks...A repair specialist at the mall said it'd cost $65 for a new LCD. When I looked it up on amazon I found LCD Screen Replacement Kit for Apple iPhone 3GS for $17 + shipping. I purchased it and I plan to repair my LCD in the IPhone. Ill be sure to make a nice documented explanation of how I did the fixing to help anyone else who encounters this in their IPhone's life...Stay posted...

Dead Nation

So for Sony's free game giveaway after their PSN down-age I chose "Dead Nation" as one of my games. The game is developed by Sony Europe, by Finnish studio "Housemarque" which has done a really excellent job of bringing the zombie genre to life. In some ways it reminds me of "Super Smash TV" and one of the more recent games on Steam "Alien Swarm" since it is a top down shooter. You get to kill mass loads of zombies and buy bigger and more deadlier weapons as the game progresses. The story line doesn't tend to drag on and has little comic book cut scenes similar to Infamous between each level you pass that tell the story. I would give the game a 4.5/5 mainly cause it does an excellent job of keeping the gamer satisfied for the first 3/4's of the game, then it becomes a tad repetitive when you stop earning new guns to test on the zombie populations. Overall an excellent game and I am glad I chose it as one of my 2 free games from Sony.

E3 Game Expo

Currently the biggest game expo of the year is going on where they show off all the new games being released soon. I was looking at Blizzard and looks like they provided content for their new Starcraft 2 expansion "Heart of the Swarm" which looks to be really awesome. A ton of new games, E3 is always a fun time of the year...

Sending Text Messages by Email

So I discovered a cool little trick for sending text messages. Apparently all it requires is to have the persons phone number and their cell phone provider then you just send it like a normal email. A good list of those can be found here http://www.emailtextmessages.com/
This is useful for my website project I am currently working on. I thought I'd share it with anyone who is not aware of this.
This does kind of makes you mad when you realize that to pay for cell phone texting you pay 20 dollars and then you pay for a internet plan for about 20-30 dollars as well...when really they are the same thing...data being sent from one place to the next.
