i am right now in holidays and my iPhone 12 got a little bit wet. After that it restarts every 3 minutes. So i looked it up and my panic report told me thermalmonitord. How can i arrange now what sensor is faulty? Also is there like a savemode so if i‘m home i could take a backup?

Greetings

The issue popped out of nowhere too, it worked one day, went to bed and it stopped working the next.

Other than that, the phone works fine, but trying to look at the panic logs didn't provide anything of use either

Lemme know if you have any solutions to this!

here, idk if that’ll help

I understand I need to buy the iPhone12 loudspeaker and earpiece speaker to get the L/R channels/stereo playback and that they usually use a flex cable connect for audio+power via the logicboard of the phone, but I'd love any advice I can get on how I can connect+power them into a simple speaker that just functions off a simple stereo 1/8" or 1/4" aux input connection.

Thanks in advance for any help!

I'm not sure what this part of the iPhone 12 is called or how important it is. I'd like to know what it is, if it's important and if I should get it replaced. It's located below the taptic engine. The upper image shows the part that is broken. Half of it has broken off. I have no idea how important it is.

I installed the replacement battery (from ifixit), but the phone shows up as 1% and there is no "lightning bolt" charge icon when the phone is plugged in. The battery menu in settings shows the phone as charging during periods when I leave it plugged in though. The phone locks and reboots periodically while plugged in, and 0% remaining" is displayed on the lock screen.

I saw other threads online with similar symptoms from different model iphones that indicated that I might have damaged surrounding components or circuitry. I took me a bit to get the new battery connector installed, but I did not see any loose pieces or visible connector damage on the phone.

I decided to test this by disconnecting the new battery and reconnecting the old battery. If the circuitry was damaged, I would expect both batteries to fail, however the old battery reports percentage, charges and the phone seems to operate fine when its installed.

I've tried reconnecting the two different batteries several times, and have tested with the screen on and off to try and rule out shorts as a possible cause.

The ifixit battery shows 3.78V on a multimeter when measured at the connector, while the original battery shows 3.8V (battery is rated at 3.83V). I inspected the connector on the new battery and can't see any obvious damage.

• Any ideas on possible causes?
• Next steps to debug?
• Is it possible that there is an issue with the new battery?

I replaced the buttons with new ones, there are no gaps, everything is fine, but I'm lost, I can't understand how long the screws are needed…

Everything is fine, but when I tighten the screw to the end, the button is not pressed, although everything is in place

Could you please tell me if I need to buy these screws separately? And are they sold on AliExpress? What length of screws for buttons do I need?

I have an issue with repairing my iPhone 12 and I'm stuck at the moment.

I refurbished the display as a hobby, but now I'm getting a "Face ID not available" message when I try to configure Face ID by going to Settings > Face ID & Passcode > Configure Face ID and then tapping on "Get Started". It briefly appears as if it's working, but before the scan begins, the message pops up. In General > About, I'm also alerted to the Face ID issue.

I have restored True Tone and auto brightness is functioning as well.

I have already cleaned all the sensors with alcohol once, and I've also tried setting up Face ID without closing the display, ruling out any contamination on the display as the cause. In Portrait mode, the Natural Light option is grayed out and not highlighted in yellow.

For the repair, I have i2C i6s and an SK Box. I'm not proficient in micro soldering yet, but if that's the only way to fix the issue, I'm still interested in knowing what exactly needs to be soldered.

It would greatly help me if someone could help me out and let me know if I need any additional tools for this.

Thank you in advance.

If an iPhone is Bent and doesn't turn on/ doesn't connect to computer, chances are high, that the motherboard is damaged, am i right? what do you think?

After a fall the top of my iPhone 12 screen isn’t working anymore. It’s about 3 cm that aren’t working anymore. I tried restarting, updating, completely resetting the phone but nothing works.

I now believe it’s a hardware failure. Is there any way to fix this without having to replace the whole screen? Btw my screen isn’t cracked at all as I had a screen protector on it (which I have now removed)

Thanks for your help!
