Hartmut Kruse - "When procuring spare parts, be sure to order an original spare part. With the replicas, the antenna cable is usually 4-5mm too short (result of a painful experience ...)"
Thank you Google Translate.
I'm sure most will agree, cheaper is so tempting but when it comes to parts, rarely as good. I bought aftermarket display for my iPhone 6 Plus. Got it all together only to find there's a touch fault. It seems to be sending a constant touch signal causing my device to stay locked due to incorrect passcode.
Try starting at one end instead of in the middle. It's to easy to bend a connector and this way, I can get a safe start and go from there.
Sounds like either the display cable isn't properly connected or it’s been damaged. If all else fails, send it to a professional.
The outer screws are security screws. The ones on the system boards are Torx.
They go behind the trigger buttons on the board against the metal. Narrow side towards the button.
I would’ve liked to see a picture of the two parts separated, laying so that I can see the connections of the display and the system board. This would be used to compare to items appearing in search results. It’s easier to be sure the part I’m ordering is the right part for the device when I have something to compare it to.
That black layer appears to be graphite and serves to be a heat shield. If it’s just damaged, you should be able to push it gently back together and continue on with your work.
The WiFi on the Turbo I’m working on has stopped working. The phone was reset to factory to see if this would fix it after all other try-this-first methods to fix had failed. I opened it to check there and find nothing apparently wrong.. No bent connectors or dirty pins. Any suggestions? I started to clean this section with alcohol but decided I’d better ask first. Any suggestions?
Question: Does it render the old display (LCD) unusable or just the touchscreen?
The NFC pad has to be transferred to the new battery or it won’t charge correctly if at all. The black appears to be graphite. No matter how carefully I picked the charging coil off, the black still came off in places. Most of it was still intact so the battery charged to 100% (Yay!) and although the battery discharged at a normal rate, Asurion Battery Health app shows it working at only 637% which, oddly enough, is about the amount of graphite that was scraped off during the removal process.
