iPhone 5c: Phone doesn't power on?

Tue, 22 Aug 2017 04:46:41 -0700

My iphone has been acting weird for about a week now. The screen would randomly shut off and up until now, taking it apart and unplugging the battery and replugging it in has worked. But now it doesn't. There seems to be no damage to the screen or any cables (no water damage, not dropped, etc). Soft resetting, hard resetting, and even pressing every button at the same time doesn't work. I can plug it into my computer and it is recognized. I heard updating it works so I tried that and that did nothing. I used iTunes to wipe it and that worked, and the computer recognized that it did so (no visual changes to the phone). The computer says the battery is at 91% charge, so it can't be the battery. I've tried unplugging all of the screen cables and reinstalling them and that doesn't seem to help. Any ideas on what to do to get my phone to start up?

iPhone 5c: buzzy earbuds after lightning dock replacement

Thu, 10 Aug 2017 11:18:05 -0700

I just replaced my lightning/speaker connector on my iphone 5c. When I first checked the speaker and the earphone connector they were both fuzzy. this morning, the speaker is fine. The earbud is still fuzzy sounding.

Should I simply take it all apart and reassemble?

iPhone 5c: Not powering on with plugged in

Thu, 10 Aug 2017 11:05:38 -0700

Hi, I have a bit of an unusual one.

I have an iPhone 5c that isn't recognising the power cable when it’s powered off. If the phone is on everything works as normal, but if the phone is off, nothing.

I have tried different batteries and charging port to see if they have any affect with no success.

A bit of history, phone has had a screen replacement. No signs of moisture/water.

Original owner said they had always the apple wall plug but had used 3rd party usb cables.

My initial though is maybe a U2 ic but could do with some other input before I go down that path.

Any and all ideas welcome, thanks in advance.

iPhone 5c: Parts of digitizer sporadically not working even after replacement

Tue, 08 Aug 2017 04:20:19 -0700

Hi, I have an iPhone 5C that has been having some issues with the screen.

Originally it would sporadically not be responsive to touch. Eventually parts of the screen would just not be responsive at all. I opened it and checked all the connections, but it did not solve the issue.

I eventually replaced the screen assembly with a new one, but the problem persists.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

iPhone 5c: Touchscreen is not working

Tue, 08 Aug 2017 04:12:41 -0700

I`ve cracked my Iphone 5c screen after a headlevel drop , 2 weeks after my touchscreen started to not respond sometimes but when i was touching my phone a bit hard it started to respond. 3 days with this issues and then suddenly 1 morning my touch was dead .. I was thinking that it is cause the broken screen, i bought new one, but touch is still not working , (the screen is OK it works i do some things with siri ).. i tried my old screen on other phone and its working .. can it be fixed or its totally dead ? One friend said that his phone has the same issue and from the shop they have said to him that its from the board and it can`t be fixed but i am still hoping that my "green weapon" will work properly again :)

iPhone 5c: Why do all the microphones are dead?

Sun, 06 Aug 2017 10:57:42 -0700

Since a few days all the mics on this iphone 5c won't record any sound: the front mic, the speaker phone and the back (movie) mic all are dead. Even when i use a bleutooth headset people don't here me. I tested recording movies, front-facing movies, voice-recording, calling, hands-free speaker calling, nothing works.

So it doesn't seem to be a problem with one of the mics....Any ideas? :)

iPhone 5c: No service for ages

Mon, 31 Jul 2017 17:11:02 -0700

I currently own an iPhone 5c and I'm on EE. Recently (last 3 days) my phone has been saying no service. I thought that i just wasn't connected or it was down for a few minutes. Then about 3 hours later I still didn't have service so I asked my mom who is also on EE if she had service and she did. I waited another couple of hours and it still said no service.

I then looked on the internet and it said to check the postcode thing and if it should work and I did and it said that I should have signal. I then turned my phone onto airplane mode and waited a few seconds then turned it off and it still said searching. I thought that in a couple of seconds it would find signal but it didn't. I waited an hour and it still said searching so I turned my phone off by holding the power button down then swiping then I turned it back on and it still said searching.

The next day I took the sim out and put it back in and it had signal ( keep reading) this lasted a couple of hours then it went off again and I have done this 2 times and it keeps doing the same.

I want to take it down to my carrier or apple but I'm worried they will charge me loads and I'm only 14. I'm going on holiday this Saturday and I need signal but my mom and dad are at work until Friday so I won't have time to go down and get it checked and I'm not sure what to do.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

iPhone 5c: Not responding when power lead is plugged in

Fri, 28 Jul 2017 04:11:55 -0700

When I plug the power lead in the phone it doesn't respond until you press the power button 1nce very quickly not holding it down like your switching it on and then it will display the battery charging icon.

It does the same when the phone has power in the battery when the phone is turned off plug it in and nothing until you until you press the power button 1nce very quickly not holding it down like your switching it on and then it will boot up apple logo etc.

I know this isn't a bad fault but it's very annoying, any advice appreciated.
