iPad Mini; Replacing Digitizer; Are The Magnets Really Necessary? A friend asked me to repair the cracked digitizer on her daughter's iPad Mini. There were already several small pieces of glass cracked off, and the digitizer was still working, but the screen was jumping randomly when toughed.

"The magnets can also play a role in use of the power button. You'll sometimes find that the power button doesn't work because the smart cover is always active since no magnets are present.

We have forgotten to put the magnets back for some customers at our store at iRepairIT (www.irepairit.com) but most don't seem to care about the smart case."
