According to the My iPhone Repair CEO, the Verizon iPhone 4 surprisingly has many significant differences over the AT&T model which changes the iPhone 4 repair process for us all – at least for the mean time until the Verizon parts become available.

The biggest change that affects the iPhone repair industry is the change in design of the LCD/Digitizer assembly – the most common iPhone repair. Apple has moved the mounting tabs of the display assembly thus making the assemblys specific to each model. Bottom line – ATT iPhone screen assemblys are NOT interchangeable with the Verizon iPhone.

So what else has changed?
The vibrator mechanism is a completely different component with the Verizon iPhone 4. It is no longer situated on the top right of the frame, rather it has been moved to the bottom left of the iPhone next to the motherboard. It seems to vibrate a little softer but is just as functional as the At&t model.

One of the most interesting facts of the iPhone 4 is that the chipset inside (Qualcomm MDM6600 chip) supports both GSM and CDMA! Meaning the iPhone 4 could have been built to support AT&T’s GSM network as well as Verizons CDMA network, but the lack of a sim tray and sim reader rules out any possible modification to make this happen. On the bright side this is a sign of future iPhone, possibly the iPhone 5 with both GSM and CDMA capability.

The battery terminal has been changed and the battery also has a new model number (616-0520). Otherwise it appears to have the same capacity.

The logic board includes the following modules:
– Apple A4 Processor (same as the AT&T model)
– Toshiba TH58NVG7D2FLA89 16 GB NAND Flash
– Cirrus Logic CLI1495B0 Audio Codec (38S0589)
– Texas Instruments Touchscreen controller (343S0499)
– Qualcomm MDM6600 CDMA/GSM chip (different than the At&t model)

All in all for the iPhone repair industry and for those doing iPhone repairs from home these changes mean one thing:

You must purchase specific replacement parts that match with either your Verizon or At&t iPhone.
Do not make the mistake of buying At&t parts for your Verizon iPhone repair!
But if you do – call us we may be interested in taking those parts off your hands!
