Title	iPhone 12 mini Screen Replacement
Introduction	If your iPhone 12 mini screen is cracked, not responding to touch, or not showing a picture when your phone is powered on, use this guide to restore your iPhone to working order with a new screen, a.k.a. display assembly. '''The combined earpiece speaker + sensor assembly affixed to the back of the display is paired to your individual iPhone from the factory''', so you must transfer it from your old display to your new one during any display replacement. It contains the flood illuminator, which is part of the biometric Face ID security feature. If it is damaged or replaced, Face ID will cease to function, so take extra care not to damage any of these components during this procedure. If damaged, only Apple or an Apple-authorized technician can restore Face ID function. '''Note''': True Tone functionality is disabled after a screen replacement, even when using an original Apple screen. Additionally, your iPhone may temporarily show a warning about the “genuineness” of the display. You’ll need replacement adhesive to reattach components when reassembling the device.

Conclusion	Compare your new replacement part to the original part—you may need to transfer remaining components or remove adhesive backings from the new part before installing. '''To reassemble your device, follow the above steps in reverse order.''' Apply new adhesive where necessary after cleaning the relevant areas with isopropyl alcohol (>90%). Take your e-waste to an [[E-Waste|R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler|new_window=true]]. Repair didn’t go as planned?
