Heres what I've tried so far...

Replaced it with the original broken screen.

Replaced it with several new screens.

Disassemble and assemble the phone.

Replaced the power button flex.

Put the motherboard in a new iPhone 5.

Nothing helps. Hopefully someone can enlighten me. :)

I just replaced a cracked display. Unfortunately after putting all back together, the wifi is just working when standing 1-5 meters away from the router.

I also tried to replace the Wifi antenna at the bottom of the iPhone, some of the EMI clips to the display assembly went off. The antenna cable is fitted in properly. I dont know what else I can check.

I have this wifi problem on 2 of my iPhones.

Help would be appreciated very much.

I have disassembled an iPhone 7 but when taking of the screen one of the two flex cables from the lcd screen got ripped. The cable that got ripped runs upwards under the LCD part, to the top. The LCD and touch still work. (fun to know that the LCD and Touch both go through one flex cable). But it disabled the home button from working. I am trying to understand how the part that I broke runs underneath the hood and what I can do to solve it. Can somebody explain it to me with pictures where the cable runs to and how it works?

This is the Home Button cable. It’s very fragile for the iPhone 7 model. The solution is to buy a replacement screen. :)

So I dropped my iPhone X on the floor!

Fortunately, neither the back nor the front glas has cracked.

But the phones does face another problem since then.

Shortly after the drop it shut down completely.

When I tried to turn it on again, the iTunes Symbol appeared.

When I tried to restore it, error 4013 appeared.

Of course I tried everything that is mentioned in divers troubleshooting guides like changing the USB port, changing the cable etc.

Of course I also tried the whole restore procedure in DFU mode and so on.

So please does someone know a REAL solution to this problem?

Thanks in advance

I have an Iphone 5 (A1429) that randomly went into dfu mode... I wasn't able to get out of DFU nor do a restore (itunes would hang on "waiting for device").

After charging the battery for a night (it gots charge now, checked it with voltmeter) i got it to a stage where it is dispaying the itunes logo with usb cable (recovery mode) but i can't get out of that either (tried holding home and power for 10 sec, restarts and goes back into the same recovery mode)

if i connect it to Itunes now, i get it to actually starting to restore but 10 seconds after the status bar displays on both my laptop and iphone, itunes stops with error 14. I already tried re-installing itunes, deleting old IPSW and tried other wifi/ computer. I'm desperate so pleas help, i'm willing to open up my IPhone and i'm in possession of a mac, windows and ubuntu PC.

here is the log i get (only error section):

[15:25:29.0492] Failure Description:

I started a little bit trading with iPhones. Is there any way how can I make hardware check - diagnostics of problems by some software?

And what repair services use when they provide "diagnostics" service.

Thank you

Is anyone else suffering issues with the new iPhone 6 screens. I have had a couple now where the glue appears to be failing and the glass and LCD are coming away from the frame.

Both times it appears to be near the mute button, which causing the glass to bounch slightly and light leak between the frame and rear of the LCD.

Any tips on repairing them?

Today my iPhone 4 fell for the first time and my front glass broke immediately leaving an ugly mark...

I can still use the iPhone like nothing happened, so there's probably no internal damage. Can I just replace the glass itself, leaving the LCD (I assume the LCD didn't take any damage from the fall)? I don't know if the glass is glued to the LCD or if something similar would prevent this repair.

I have found someone on eBay that is selling the Front panel glass separately, for $62 compared to $148 for the LCD Touch Digitizer Screen Full set
