iPhone 8: One of the metal grips in my charging/headphone port is bent.

Tue, 05 Nov 2019 07:48:59 -0700

On headphones for the IPhone 8, there is a small indent that has 2 pieces of metal grip it in the phone. One of these grips is bent, and I can’t plug my headphones in, and I’m worried it won’t allow a charger either. How do I fix this?

iPhone 8: Home button going crazy

Sat, 02 Nov 2019 21:37:30 -0700

Hi,

I recently did a LCD repair on a iPhone 8. After everything seemed ok, I put the phone together only to realise that the home button would vibrate crazy everytime you would touch it. The actual button seems to work and so does touch I'd. Please if anyone knows how to fix this please share.

P.S I have tried to reset and restart the phone

iPhone 8: What is the size of the iPhone 8 home button?

Wed, 09 Oct 2019 14:54:19 -0700

I'm getting an iPhone 8 in about 4 days and I bought the case and screen protector ahead of time. The home button gap on the screen protector looks kinda small, I want to be sure I got the right stuff, as it is from eBay. The only iPhone in my house for comparison is an iPhone 5c. Does anyone know if both the iPhone 8 and 5c have the same home button size?

iPhone 8: LCD cable is partially sliced... any help?

Sun, 06 Oct 2019 15:22:41 -0700

My phone is unresponsive on the screen, but the home button and Power button still work fine. My problem is the cord/cable that connects to the top of the screen above the motherboard is sliced. I'm not entirely sure what it is called but is it replaceable? And can someone give me the exact name of the cable?

iPhone 8: Why is my home button overclicking

Thu, 03 Oct 2019 05:35:14 -0700

I don’t know why this happened but I was just on my phone and it was working perfectly fine, then I pressed the home button like I always do and it just started rapidly clicking even though I only clicked it once. I did not have a screen replacement, I tried restarting my phone but it did nothing. It could be screws loose or something, but it was working perfectly fine all day until now. This is getting really annoying!! Please help

iPhone 8: Why won’t my phone turn on

Thu, 26 Sep 2019 10:05:51 -0700

I was down at the river yesterday and my phone dropped in about a meter deep,I could not find it at first but eventually I did.

When it came out it was on but very faint, I was able to accept a phone call from a friend. I then tried to turn it off but didn’t know if I had any success ad I could hardly see my screen.

A day later I’ve had my phone in rice but it won’t turn on or even show the battery empty symbol.

Please help me I need this phone.

iPhone 8: bottom of screen flickering when I increase the brightness.

Tue, 24 Sep 2019 07:53:24 -0700

my iPhone screen flickers at bottom when brightness increases (auto/manual). The more the brightness, more the flickering area goes up. When I lower the brightness to approx 50%, the flickering foes away (may be is goes down enough to be visible) Any quick solutions?

Just replaced my apple screen that was cracked with a screen I got from ifixit. Now my phone keeps restarting. Will work fine most of the time but will cut off sometimes when trying to send a text, or EVERY time I try to make a call. So frustrating! Old cracked screen worked fine! Is there any known fixes to this problem?
