I work on iPhones all the time and I stopped at the iPhone 10 and above because they're hardware and software secure/ booby trapped. First the earpiece and front facing camera/IR illuminator is booby trapped. Second the LCD has firmware that can be checked and modified during any software update. I've had more than one iPhone 10 malfunction after proper LCD replacement including loss of sound from the earpiece and/or loudspeaker, the phone refuses to turn off (goes through the motions but returns to the home screen), loss of Face ID. After the replacement LCD was install the phone worked fine. After the software was updated the phone steered having problems. The LCD was an aftermarket/non-Apple inc. LCD
