iPhone 13: NFC ANTENNA? Apple Pay and tap not working.

Fri, 14 Aug 2026 03:31:37 -0700

Hey guys,

My Apple Pay has not worked at all. No card machine will recognise my device is there, it worked once since this happened, but not again.

An airtag type device used called 'squid' for tracking loyalty payments which also uses NFC (I assume) also would not recognise the phone. This makes me think there is a hardware issue with something, and not an Apple Pay problem. I deleted and put all my cards back on but the different pay terminals, and this squid tap loyalty thing still didn’t recognise my phone.

So, after seeing somethings about possibly loose NFC antenna plate, or something like that, does anyone have any insight?

Or links to a guide i might use to open up the back of the iPhone, locate the plate and NFC antenna, and check if there is anything out of place from a drop potentially?

iPhone 13: iPhone 13 power button not working after cleaning and case removal

Tue, 11 Aug 2026 09:42:56 -0700

The power button (side button) on my iPhone 13 is completely not working and I have already tried removing the case, cleaning around the button for debris, and checking for software issues. The physical button does not click or respond at all, and none of the basic troubleshooting steps worked. What are my options to repair or replace it?

iPhone 13: Phone overheating causing bugs.

Tue, 04 Aug 2026 11:08:37 -0700

My phone gets rather hot, not to the point of the heat warning popping up, but when listening to music via Bluetooth the song keep jittering or proceeds to skip the song. Also when on a phone call sometimes it glitches out and makes the weird dududududuududu noise and I can hear the person in the next end or they can’t hear me. I have realized the call not glitches out when a picture is taken or I load up a game app. I told this to my local phone fixers and they said it was the battery, so they changed the battery for me, yet same problem the back of the phone isn’t as hot but the side get really hot and the music keep jittering and the phone keeps bugging on calls and lags a lot. Someone please help.

iPhone 13: Post battery replacement verification and charging

Fri, 24 Jul 2026 15:09:08 -0700

I replaced battery replacement for my iPhone 13 and I have recalibrating it 2 times but my phone still tells me that the battery is unverified and an unknown part.
It also takes about 2 hours for it to go from 24 percent to 80.

I don't know if there is a way I could fix this because this is my first time handling an iPhone replacement and I'm afraid I messed up and have to get a new phone.

iPhone 13: iPhone 13 Screen Issue: Horizontal Multi-Coloured Lines

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 08:03:33 -0700

I recently encountered a sudden issue with my iPhone 13 display — banded horizontal, multi-coloured lines appeared across the entire screen, making it difficult to read and use. There were no prior software updates or major changes, and I’ve always handled the phone carefully, using a screen protector and case for protection. The only unusual behaviour I noticed beforehand was the screen occasionally flashing on and off late at night, which I initially assumed was a missed notification. In hindsight, it seems like an early sign of screen failure.

After the issue appeared, I contacted Apple Support, who advised me to perform a hard reset. When that didn’t help, I took the device to my local Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP). They ran diagnostic tests, including multiple reboots, but the horizontal lines persisted. Their diagnosis: a faulty display assembly. Unfortunately, since my device was out of warranty, the repair quote was an outrageous $456.57 USD!

I reached out to Apple again, expressing concerns over the excessive cost, but was told there was nothing they could do and that I should consider buying a new phone.

After looking into this issue further, I found numerous reports from other users experiencing the exact same problem:

These are just a few examples — there are many more similar cases.

I still have much older iPhone XR units that have never had any screen issues to this day. Given how widespread this problem appears to be, is there any way to push Apple to acknowledge this as a manufacturing defect rather than an expensive out-of-warranty repair?

Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated!

iPhone 13: iPhone 13 battery drops quickly from 20% to 1% and lingers at 1% after replacement

Thu, 04 Jun 2026 07:50:39 -0700

I recently installed a new iFixit battery in my iPhone 13. The battery behaves strangely: it drops very quickly from about 20% to 1%, and then it stays at 1% for a long time before the phone actually dies.

I have already tried the following:

1. Calibrated the battery multiple times (100% charge + 2 hours, discharge to 0%, full charge).

2. Opened the phone to clean the battery connectors with isopropyl alcohol and ensured a secure connection.

The issue persists despite these steps. Is this a known issue with the battery's BMS/gas gauge, or could there be an issue with the logic board's charging circuit? Any advice on further diagnostics or if this warrants a replacement?
