iPhone 4s: cracked glass near the camera
The customer dropped the phone on its back — the rear glass cracked and crumbled around the camera. We replaced the back cover in the matching color and checked the camera, flash, and charging.
If the glass back is smashed or the frame is dented, we move your iPhone 4s parts into a new body, warranty up to 1 year.

A new body is needed when the frame is crushed, both panes are chipped, the antenna band is damaged or everything rocks.
After a fall a corner is squashed, the glass lifts from the edge, and a burr sticks out where it dented.
Cracks run on the back and the front. The phone sheds crumbs in your hand and splinters catch on clothing.
The metal rim is bent or has opened along its gap, and reception has started to drop out.
The body creaks and gives when pressed, and the buttons and SIM tray sit loosely.
The final cost of moving the internals into a new body is quoted after a free diagnostic — call or message us on WhatsApp.

The sum is confirmed after inspection, once the technician sees which parts of the body are damaged.
We inspect the phone, take it apart, move the internals into the new body and rebuild it by the plan.

We judge the deformation and check that the screen, cameras, buttons and signal work before taking it apart.

The rear glass, battery, board and display block come off, and screws are sorted into compartments.

The board, antenna contacts, speakers, vibration motor, buttons and cables go into the new frame.

All connectors are plugged in, boards and brackets secured, and the display module is returned with care.

The rear glass is attached and the special screws tightened, with a check that it sits flat.

We check signal, buttons, cameras, sound, charging and sensors before the phone goes back.
The phone returns in a whole body, and the work carries a warranty up to 1 year.
Price for my modelThe body sets the look, how precisely parts fit and how sturdy the phone is, so the choice matters.


There is a branch in Astana that receives phones on a convenient schedule and gives a clear choice of parts.
Eleven years of repairs gave us practice in moving internals even in delicate builds like the 4s body.
We back a completed replacement with a warranty up to 1 year, and the technician explains the terms before work starts.
Moving dozens of small parts is done by experienced technicians who remember which screw goes where.
We explain how original and aftermarket differ in fit and finish, and you make the decision yourself.
Come to our Astana branch instead of hunting for a repairer in another city or sending the phone by post.
We receive phones on weekdays from 10:00 to 19:00, and at weekends and on holidays from 11:00 to 18:00.

The customer dropped the phone on its back — the rear glass cracked and crumbled around the camera. We replaced the back cover in the matching color and checked the camera, flash, and charging.
The whole journey — from a message to a finished phone. The repair takes 1–3 days — we provide a loaner phone for that time.
Book a replacementYou message us on WhatsApp with the model and what happened — we give you the price and time. Or you come in without an appointment.
We look for dents and bending, check the logic board, cameras and buttons: after an impact it's not only the housing that suffers.
We note the model, the part (original or aftermarket), the price, the timeframe, and the warranty.
We open the factory packaging in front of you and check the number against the receipt.
We transfer the logic board, cameras, battery and flex cables into the new housing and apply new water-resistant adhesive.
Buttons, cameras, charging, sound, Face ID or Touch ID, connectivity. You take the phone, the receipt and the old housing.

iPhone 4s Housing Replacement in Astana for a Clean Glass Back
For an iPhone 4s housing replacement in Astana, we swap the glass back panel and, if needed, the steel frame, moving the board, battery and cameras across. Two screws hold the rear panel, so no heat or laser is required. We quote from a photo, fix the part and warranty on the receipt, and most jobs finish while you wait.
The fourth-generation model has a glass cover on a steel frame held by screws, unlike the glued-down glass on the 8 and newer, shaping both the part and the method.
The iPhone 4s rear panel is a sheet of tempered silica fixed to a stainless steel chassis and held by two pentalobe screws at the bottom edge, with no adhesive underneath. It is a separate serviceable part, not a bonded assembly: the steel takes the structural load, the fasteners clamp the pane, and a thin gasket runs the perimeter where the pane meets the frame. Nothing is fused, so you get a standalone component with its own part number. Because there is no glue, the cover lifts off as one piece, so a cracked rear can be sorted without heating the chassis or risking further shattering.
On the 4s most jobs involve only the rear cover, but a bent or dented frame after a drop will not hold a new pane flat, and the work moves to the whole housing.
If the steel frame is straight and only the glass is cracked or chipped, we replace just the rear cover and keep your original chassis, buttons and SIM tray. We lay a straight edge along each side and check the corners where the pane meets metal, because the 4s cover is glued to a chassis that bends before it breaks. Both hairline cracks and spidering stay cover-only jobs as long as the metal underneath is true. For iphone 4s housing replacement in Astana, this check tells us whether the frame can stay. Run a finger along the edges before booking — a sheet that looks fine but sits on a bent frame will crack again within weeks.
| Job | Trigger | What we move | What we check after |
|---|---|---|---|
| Back panel only | Cracked or chipped pane, straight chassis | Nothing, chassis stays | Buttons, cameras, charging |
| Full housing | Dented or bent frame, scuffed corners | Board, battery, cameras, flexes | Buttons, cameras, network, charging |
| Camera glass only | Broken camera island, rear intact | Nothing | Camera focus and flash |
The work starts with a photo of the damage in WhatsApp and ends with the old cover handed back with the receipt and warranty card, step by step.
Send a photo of the damage on WhatsApp and an engineer replies within five minutes with a price and a free time slot, then fixes the price, part, turnaround and warranty on the receipt before any work starts. The engineer quotes from the picture alone, so you know the figure before you leave home. At the branch, the same engineer runs a free 15-minute diagnostic in front of you and shows what is actually broken. Writing the component down takes about two minutes and locks the terms for the whole job. Naming the component on paper matters more on an older model, because a glass panel and a full housing are easy to mix up.
We show the new panel in its factory packaging before fitting it, and you leave with the old part, the receipt and the warranty card. The engineer opens the phone, lifts the cracked pane off the steel frame, seats the replacement, reassembles the device and hands it back for inspection. Nothing is fitted until you have seen the sealed box and confirmed the component matches the receipt. The warranty runs up to 1 year, and the paperwork travels with the phone. Keep the old component — on a 4s it is the quickest way to confirm the frame is the one the phone shipped with.
The 4s rear comes in two versions — original cover and aftermarket copy — differing in tint, fit to the steel frame, and cutout alignment.
64% of our customers choose an original component, and on the 4s the difference shows up mainly in tint and how evenly the piece meets the steel chassis. An aftermarket copy often reads a touch warmer or cooler in the same light, and on a black panel you notice it along the edges where the surface meets the metal. Cutouts for the camera and the side buttons are the second tell: a good copy lines up cleanly, a rough one leaves a sliver of misalignment you catch at an angle. Fit matters as much as colour, because a piece that does not seat flat lets dust work beneath the surface within weeks. Ask to see both side by side in the same light before deciding.
Reassembly is not the finish line — the phone is handed back only after a joint inspection. Below are the functions we test with you and what to expect from moisture protection afterwards.
After the work is finished we run through 32 functions in about ten minutes, checking the buttons, cameras, microphones, speakers, charging and network together with you. The engineer works through the list in front of you, so every result is visible as it appears. On the 4s the rear cover carries no wireless charging coil and no flash wiring, so the checks that matter most are the ones tied to the chassis — button feel, SIM tray fit and the camera sitting flush with the new pane. We also confirm the mute switch clicks cleanly and the headphone jack seats a plug without wobble.
The 4s was never rated for water resistance, and after any housing work the phone should still be kept away from moisture, since the seal is only as good as the gaskets and screws that go in. The factory adhesive gasket along the edge is single-use: lift the glass and that bond is spent, while a fresh one is only as reliable as the surface prep beneath it. The four chassis screws and small internal shields do most of the structural work, yet none make the shell watertight. Treat a repaired 4s as a dry-weather handset — a splash in a pocket is survivable, but a dunk in the sink kills these boards, and no glass swap changes that. Keep it from taps and wipe the seam dry if wet.
Five points cover a cracked, bent or dull rear cover on this model: how it attaches, which component to order, and what to inspect on pickup.

Ask a questionIf the band is straight and reception is fine, changing the back glass alone costs less. A full replacement is needed for dents, a damaged antenna band or glass broken on both sides.
The steel band works as an antenna, and a dent beside a gap spoils reception. The technician will inspect it and say whether a new frame will help.
Yes, if both a white back and a white front panel can be obtained, because the iPhone 4s front is coloured too. Changing only the back gives a mixed look, so decide on the full set with the engineer.
Yes, the IMEI is stored in the logic board, which moves into the new body unchanged. On the iPhone 4s the number is also engraved on the SIM tray, so keep your original tray.
They should: the engineer fits the volume buttons, power button and mute switch and checks each click before handing the phone over. If a key feels soft or loose, say so right away during the check.
Light scuffs can be polished, but deep dents, especially near the antenna gaps, cannot be fixed this way. In that case a new body is the cleaner solution.

The difference is not always visible, but it can be checked. An original panel is the one the manufacturer installs; an aftermarket copy costs about 35% less.

What “maximum capacity” means, why the phone shuts down in the cold, and how long a new battery lasts.

Power it off, skip the rice, and get the board checked before corrosion starts. Here is the short version of the first 30 minutes.
