I have an older iPhone 5 that I got from someone, because he dropped it and the screen broke pretty heavily. Quite a bit of the glass in the top right corner is completely gone. And he couldn't boot it anymore either.

However, I might be interested in fixing it. Question is though, how much do I have to fix?
Current symptoms;
* When I received it, you could turn the phone on, but it wouldn't actually boot. Instead, it would reboot constantly.
* I tried connecting it to my Mac and doing a factory reset on it through iTunes. However, after wiping the system, that fails with an 'unknown error (2015)'. This happens on all my restore attempts.
* Now, connecting it to my computer shows 1) the Apple logo, and then 2) the image asking to connect it to iTunes.
Restore sequence;

So my question is; does anyone know if just replacing the screen would work?

Or do I have to replace something else as well? The logic board, maybe?
