Do you have the Tiny iphone pentalobe driver?

**blackgold** · 07-30-12, 12:09 AM

I've been trying to remove my back for a few months so I can hopefully fix my home button. I've bought 3 screwdrivers and all were jacked up and would not fit. Wondering if anyone has the TINY star pentalobe screwdriver that they could bring with them to quakecon.
Thanks,
Brian

i think I have the whole set of the small star drivers. I will bring them with me BG so you can try them out.

Can you use the same trick that people used for old Gamecube controllers? Take a bic pen and remove the ink part. Take a lighter and start melting the tip of the ben and let it cool down around the screw you want to take out. It would then be able to grab the screw and unscrew it.

Kibner,,,, what the F*&k! are you some sort of Macgyver or Macgruber, Take a pen and empty it, melt it down so it will fit in the screw shit. LMAO
Maybe we can also take a wrigleys gum wrapper and let the ions magentically back that screw out...... LOL.... shit I still can't stop laughing at this...

I can't take credit for that idea.

But it was something that people used to do since the actual screw driver that would fit was difficult and/or expensive to find.
