How to prevent iPhone back covers from cracking

If you have an iPhone 3G or 3GS, you might find that the back cover plastic cracks over time or with little or not effort. It seems reverse to logic, and I won't get into the physics of it, but basically the fact that it is week there actually helps prevent internal damage, as the crack absorbs the energy of a fall. However, these can crack with moderate pressure over time. Common cracks occur around the SIM tray area, Charging Dock port, Headphone Jack, and between the Power Button and Metal Bezel. If it hasn't cracked yet, you can try to use Superglue Re-enforcement: If you can disassemble your iPhone without damaging it, you can apply an extra layer of protection by creating a puddle of superglue along the bottom dock area on the inside. Let it dry completely before reattaching the bottom dock.

We can do this as a custom service, charging $25 for Superglue Re-Enforcement, which comes with no warranty. Call 417-268-5211 to schedule a same-day appointment!

If your iPhone back has already cracked, you can get a new iPhone 3G Complete Back or iPhone 3GS Complete Back which includes a new battery, buttons, bezel, and 18 other items new for $75-100.
