iPhone 6s: iPhone 6s LCD replacement will not go back in.

Mon, 09 Jan 2017 06:50:21 -0700

I have fixed many screens, faced many issues, and have never had to post. Unfortunately, an iPhone 6s screen will not fit back into the phone properly. The frame may have slight bending but it shouldn't be causing this. The issue is on the top right corner of the phone I think. When I push the screen in, the right side goes perfectly, and the left side does not. It starts about half an inch from the top and basically goes all the way down, resting above the phone. I was thinking maybe it was the battery, but I don't really think so.. it seems to be an issue at the top left corner. Let me know what you think PLEASE!!

iPhone 6s: Battery is still dying at 20-30% after reaplcement

Wed, 14 Dec 2016 21:27:32 -0700

Hello,

I had battery problems with the original battery on the iPhone 6s (battery would die randomly) and I ordered a replacement. After replacing, I drained the battery to 0 and charged it to 100% and it still dies randomly.

The only difference is that it dies consistently around 20-30% and when I turn it back on, it has the same percentage as it did when it died, whereas before with the old battery, it would fluctuate (for example the phone would die at 15 but turn on at 30).

Also, if you wait a couple of minutes, you can turn it back on but it turns off right away without a charge.

iPhone 6s: iPhone 6s - Silent Mode Cycles On/Off Independent Of Switch

Sun, 27 Jul 2025 18:00:23 -0700

Everything else on my phones works fine. But I can be just holding the phone and the Sient Mode notifications appear without me touching the switch on the side. Sometimes it will not do this but more often it does with the On and Off notications cycling through one after the other.

My silent mode switch on the side of the phone is clean and has a very crisp and definite on/off movement. The noticiations work properly when I move the switch.

I have tried to find a spot on the phone which, when touched, cause the notifactions to appear. But it does not work like that, the notifications can automatically appear with the phone sat on my desk.

Thinking this might be software rather than gardware related?

iPhone 6s: Can new battery in broken iPhone 6s be saved and reused or given away?

Sat, 17 Feb 2024 10:44:03 -0700

My iPhone 6s got shocked into uselessness, only shortly after I had a new battery put in. Apple says that I can't save the new battery and put it into my new phone when I need one, because the old phone and the new one are different models. If I can't do that, can I offer the battery to someone else? Who could use it? Another 6s owner? Anyone else?

iPhone 6s: Backlight on but no image

Sat, 17 Feb 2024 06:52:12 -0700

Hai guys

I have an iPhone 6s, it has been getting this issue in which the phones backlight is on but there is no image. I can say that the backlight is on because there is little water on the screen which entered through the silent switch but it worked fine for almost an year but now it has been blank but the phone works, it vibrates powers on etc. this happend many weeks ago but last week suddenly it worked and while charging from 0 I tried maximum to keep the screen on and booted it, it worked fine but as I kept the screen on for a lot, it looked as if ghosting images was appearing so thought of turning it off by simply pressing the power button. Then I clicked the home button and boom, nothing was there, only that white spot on the side of the screen near the silent switch was there. Rn the phone display is removed, please help me

iPhone 6s: Why is my voice sounding muffled to others during phone calls?

Wed, 05 Jul 2023 08:58:26 -0700

Hello, I have had a IPhone 6s for 2 years now, (it was originally one of the specific groups of iPhone 6s’ with faulty batteries, but got the battery changed by Apple.) after that, it worked fine until these last few weeks.It began when I called somebody and they said they couldn’t hear what I was saying. Later that same week a faulty headphone jack snapped inside my IPhone so I had to get a new charger port part from a third party repair shop.

I have researched on the internet to try and fix it, but to no avail. I’ve cleaned all microphones,switched on and off Noise cancellation, held my phone differently etc....People can hear me clearly when I use speakerphone, but then again I can’t really do this in public. Part of me is just thinking to get a new phone, Any suggestions? Thank you :)
