Apple Watch: No display after screen and battery replacement

Wed, 20 Nov 2019 08:57:05 -0700

I recently ordered from iFixit three items to repair my apple watch. Battery (just was not holding a long enough charge), force touch sensor and used sapphire screen (screen was shattered from a three foot unlucky angle drop). After installing all three without any issues (no torn cables, took about 30 minutes), I get no display.

When I charged my watch for about 1 hour the battery gets warm (the actual battery not the whole watch). Seems about as warm as is normally the case. I have tried putting the old screen on and the old battery back in with no luck. I have tried hard resets (holding crown and side button for up to a minute) . Nothing is working and nothing looks even slightly damaged. Am I out of luck? I throughly read through iFixit instructions before starting.

This is the first gen device. Series 0 or revision 1. As a side note I have successfully repaired at least ten iPhones; screens, batteries, cameras and even a proximity sensor (very small parts). One time I even tore apart a water damaged iPhone 4, cleaned all the parts, including the logic board with isopropyl, and had it running for a year.

Apple Watch: Bloated battery, screen popping off. Watch series 0, service?

Sun, 22 Sep 2019 11:53:22 -0700

So I literally got this watch last night from my brother. Apparently the battery is like four years old and is now bloated and popping the screen off. Obviously, it’s not in warranty. I contacted Apple and they want $250 plus tax and shipping to replace everything in which I told them isn’t going to happen because if I had that kind of money I’d buy a brand new watch instead. I got the watch for free because I couldn’t afford one and because my brother upgraded to their 4 series. Oh the envy.

My question is how hard is it to replace the battery and possibly the adhesive (to get the screen to stick back on) for a Series 0 watch? I looked at the tutorial and I’m a bit apprehensive about doing it. I honestly don’t want to do the repair myself because I tend to shake a lot and can’t do this type of in depth tiny part technical work anymore. It’s like !&&* trying to get tiny screws tightened on my glasses with my shaky hands. It’s not fun. So does anyone have any recommendations for (reputable) companies that charge a lot less for battery replacement? I thought ifixit might offer such a service themselves (in addition to those who want to fix it themselves) but I can’t find anything like that on the website. If not I suppose I’ll have to go about and try to do it myself because it seems the inexpensive route.

I’ve cracked my watches and when it was broken the touch screen didn’t work so i thought when i buy a new screen, the touch screen should work, but it didn’t.The display normally work, just that touch don't work. I have some spare broken screens and they also don’t work. Tried to change battery and no success. all the ribbon cables look untouched without any problem. Pretty clueless now
