iPhone 6 Plus: iPhone 6 Plus Ghost touch

Wed, 31 Jul 2019 04:39:18 -0700

Hello. I thought that my iPhone have touch disease but it has no gray flickering display. But touches itself. When I got to a local phone repair shop. The guy opened my iPhone to check its internals and then WE NOTICED THAT THE 5 SCREWS THAT SECURES THE DISPLAY DATA CABLES WERE ONLY 3! And the iPhone is also bent. The guy offered me to replace the screen and the rear housing for a total of $108! $44 for the rear housing and $64 for the screen. WILL I PAY $108 JUST TO REPAIR MY IPHONE OR I'LL JUST TRY TO BUY 2 SMALL PHILIPS SCREWS TO FILL THE GAP?! BECAUSE I'M NOT SO SURE THAT THE SCREEN IS ALREADY BROKEN. IT JUST HAVE A GHOST TOUCH BECAUSE OF INCOMPLETE SCREWS. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT TO TRY/DO? THANKS!

iPhone 6 Plus: Is this battery replacement for my iPhone 6+ Legit?

Thu, 06 Jun 2019 04:42:20 -0700

I was trying to find a battery replacement for my iPhone 6+ and I found this Crazy iPhone Battery replacement. 2915MAH is the maximum capacity of an iPhone 6+ but this one is 3510MAH… Of course I got interested but I’m still worried because I’ve never heard of that brand. In my country its hard to have an appointment in battery replacement and I really don’t know if they have one here so yeah… thanks. I have a link in their site just to show to you guys and maybe have your thoughts if this one’s legit or not: http://www.crazytechnology.com.au/crazy-...

iPhone 6 Plus: iPhone 6 Plus Error 4013 after Screen, Logic, and Lightning replaced

Sun, 12 May 2019 21:58:07 -0700

I recently gained possession of an iPhone 6 Plus that I replaced the screen on for a friend. The phone then proceeded to boot loop until it ran out of power. Thinking that the device was fubar, he gave it to me. So I decided to try basically everything. Got to the point that I decided to replace the logic board after having heard that error 4013 can be NAND related. Did that. Still get the exact same error whenever I try to restore it with iTunes.

64GB AT&T Locked iPhone 6 Plus

Parts replaced:

Screen
Lightning and audio assembly
Logic Board
5GHz wireless antenna

Any insight?

iPhone 6 Plus: Unable to activate touch id after screen replacement

Sat, 04 May 2019 16:40:57 -0700

Hi everyone,

After replacing my iPhone’s 6 Plus screen, i get an error “unable to activate touch id” Is it because im using my else’s screen?

So instead of buying a new screen, i used some else as a screen replacement and just replaced the home button with mine.

I have tried Hard Reset and i still get an error. The home button still works fine.

iPhone 6 Plus: Help! Cant connect to itunes to restore!

Fri, 03 May 2019 14:34:06 -0700

After screen replacement my phone says dissabled, connect to itunes. When I connect to itunes my computer says "to allow access, please respond on your iphone" but the only 2 screens I can access are the emergency sail and the screen that says iphone disabled. I used the same home button, so I don't think it has anything to do with that issue. Can anyone help?

iPhone 6 Plus: Touch ID problems after screen replacement

Sun, 14 Apr 2019 08:59:39 -0700

So i did a screen replacement. The connector on the long flex cable that runs along the shield plate was glued very hard to the front panel and took me 30 minutes to get off, but when it came loose it had a slight “bend” near the connector which was caused by me removing the connector. I could not see any tears or broken pins, i checked with a magnifying glass. I used the original home button on the new screen.

Now the touch ID is not working, the home button seems to work as it should except the touch id function. I opened it up again and reseated the home button connector, but still the same. Before i did the screen replacement i did remove the battery connector.

So how likely is it that the long “shield plate” cable causes this touch ID error?

And is that long flex cable also paired with that specific motherboard or is it only the actual home button?

And how likely is a itunes restore going to fix this problem (if its not the cable which is broken)? I really don´t want to do a restore since i´m at iOS 10.1 and would like to stay there, unless i know that will fix the problem.

P.S. Now when i think about it this same problem happened also when i did the exact same job on a iphone 6 earlier, never cared to try to find a solution that time though. So same thing happened 2 times on different iphones. That phone had also ios 10.

Am i missing some step here?

iPhone 6 Plus: iPhone 6 Plus sometimes auto restart?

Sat, 29 Dec 2018 08:24:09 -0700

Hi I got an IPhone 6 plus water damaged and came with short on VCC_Main Cap near the Audio IC. After removing the shorted Cap the phone works normally, but then after a few days the phone came in with with a new issue :

1. Always restart itself

2. Battery percentage is not normal, like sometimes 80% and directly decrease to 5% and suddenly it turns off.

So I take a further step by changing the Charging IC (U1700). After changing the Charging IC the IPhone works well, but just for a few hours the issue CAME BACK (but the percentage issue is solved). Diode Mode on Vcc_Main looks normal to me around 350.

So my question is, do I need to change the Tigris Chip ? Is it possible that the issue came from the CPU ? What should I do next

I’m trying to test if my iPhone 6 Plus is functioning at all as the screen is inoperable. Has anyone tried to connect the smaller 4,7” screen to the Plus version? Is the connector same and does it work? Don’t want to burn the whole phone hence asking first.
