For some strange reason my iPhone began to heat up much more than usual. It never happened to It before. I realized couse I started to feel it writing on the screen. In adition to the fact that the battery is quite degraded (79%) it started to drain dramatically. It went from 78% of charge to 63% in no more than 5 minutes, only using WhatsApp and Twitter, to the point that it warmed so much that It scared me, and almost burned.

I tried shutting it down, closing all the opened apps, taking the case off and nothing.

Doing any type of no intensive use, causes It to starting heat up, specially the area of the right of the camera.

PD: I don’t know if It affects, but a few days ago I bought a Macbook Pro, and they are constantly connecting, and even I used it to make phone calls. Also, is hot here, but no so much (22ºC) compare to past days, when It can reach 36ºC, but nothing happen until now.

What would it be? Should I formatting it? Thanks you so much for the time! And I hope I don’t disgusting you with my english!

Last week, the battery drained pretty quick ( in about 4 hours). From that day onwards, no matter what I did, ( reinstall, DFU, fresh install with nothing installed on the phone), the phone discharges in 12/13 hours if left on standby (aeroplane mode, without a SIM or WIFI) and within 2-3 hours of light use.

I changed the battery, unfortunately that didn’t help. It still drains in 12-13 hours in standby and 3-4 hours while usage. I am not sure where to go from here, any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT

I switched off the phone last night before going to sleep. Battery at the time was 69%. When I woke up 7 hours later and turned the phone on, it had drained all the way down to 6% ( while it was turned off)

Two of the battery plate screws are stripped and stuck in the phone. No idea how to get them out.

Any help would be great.

Sorry for the bad pictures but my phone camera lens have been broken for about a year and after not being able to find a place that would actually attempt to fix it, I’m considering trying to fix it myself, but I don’t know how to go about doing it. I’ve seen a video on replacing the glass cover but even if i did that i think the smudges would still be there, so I’d have to clean the camera and that would be difficult. Would it be easier to replace the entire back seeing that i might have to open up the phone anyways in order to clean the camera, or is the camera itself beyond cleaning/repair? Would appreciate the help.

If this two transistor is gone, is it can cause the IPhone 7 to boot up normally ??

If yes.. Can i just make jumper on this Q2700/Q2701 line ??

When I see the schematic on ZXW it showing like a bridge to transmit the data to the PMIC (correct me if im wrong). Cuz i have an IPhone 7 regarding for this issue

couldn't find any iPhone 7 specific threads for that problem. I bought a pretty bent iPhone and replaced the backcover. Now when I use Maps (either Google or Apple) the GPS Location is lagging behind and is inaccurate so that navigation is impossible. The location is always about 5m off. It's like I'm always driving on the next street.

Hard reset through DFU Mode didn't help. Newest Firmware is installed.

Wife's iphone7 not switching on (photos not backed up so world is currently ending)

Won't charge (no screen activity)

Replaced the lightning connector assembly

Phone then comes to life (powers up and can be used)

Put on charge, all's well for about 20 mins then stops taking charge again and powers off

Swapped out the battery suspecting a faulty one but still phone won't charge or power back on

Logic board appears to be ok as Initally the phone powered up and data/settings were intact
