I live in France and i was wondering if someone in Europe tryed to ask for remplacement for free at Apple Store ?

https://www.apple.com/support/iphone-7-n...

As you can see it is not clearly stated if the repair program is available in other countries than US, China or Japan…

Can anyone tell me which line it is please? And what’s its name? Many thanks.

So I have a nice iPhone 7 128GB that came across my desk that wont recognize any of the SIM cards I put in it. All SIM cards are confirmed working on their separate carriers. Now, I put a VERIZON card in it and the phone recognized the service, but came up with a "Network not Recognized" error. So I'm kinda stuck. Any help?

I was thinking this could be a China bought iPhone?

I got an iPhone 7 about 8 months ago. The first accident was about a month in dropped it on the pavement (screen protector didn't help), cracked screen.

Had the screen replaced. It been fine since. Until about 2 weeks ago, the battery level dropped from 63% to 1% in split second while I was using it.

I've tried hard reset, DFU Restore (I had the phone plugged in to enter this mode), the phone refuses to turn on without being plugged in, and when that happens, it just gets stuck in the reboot loop.

Hard to tell if its a battery or bad software, I really do not know. Any help would be a great first step.

I bought two iphone 7 as second hand and i find the following trouble: quick battery discharge (half a day autonomy). I thought that both batteries were dead but the result with battery life was a 75% capacity score.

Of course , complete restore as new phone as been done with last ios and battery drain is still present. But what is the most surprising is that the battery discharge occurs also when the phones are switch off. And not a few percent drop around 40% drop for twelve around with the phone completely off. A test with apple staff mentioned that battery was quite good.

And this with 2 different phones (seems ok inside, water indicators are clean) and no physical damage except some scratch on screen. Any help ?

By the way i have tested ios 11.3 to get the new tools related to battery but i didn’t find it...

After hours of frustration I noticed the phone would boot correctly by unplugging the front facing camera ribbon. So I turned it off again and connected the ribbon to be sure. And yet again the phone got stuck in a boot loop. I Unplugged the front facing camera flex cable and got it running again..

I did not touch this connector with the repair. And I was very careful. I fixed a lot of iPhones but this seems very strange to me. I can’t find the problem.

With the phone on I noticed the 3D Touch and home button/Touch ID are also not working. This is a different ribbon cable to my knowledge and too much of a coincidence. Also a connection that’s untouched by me or anyone else. Can someone point me in the right direction? I don’t know where to go from here.

Many thanks! :)

I didn't do anything with the display assembly since it was working just fine.

Since it didn't work I took the phone back apart, made sure the home button was connected on the display assembly, and everything checked out and is connected.

Not sure why the home button isn't working.

I see to the left side of the charging port there is a pressure connector that goes up like it would touch the backside of the home button, that too is in place and not bent down or anything that would make it seem like it wouldn't connect.

Just looking for some help and if anyone else has encountered this and has overcome it.

Thank you.

My iPhone 7 has been intermittently getting stuck in a boot loop. The only way I can stop it is by putting my thumbs to the left and right of the home button and giving it a firm squeeze.

I've tried a full restore...I'm an IT pro so I'm used to fixing all kinds of computer/phone problems, but I'm simply stumped on this one. Given that I have to squeeze it to fix it, I'm assuming it's hardware. I just don't know which component it would be...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I was able to desolder the baseband and clean the main board from the remaining glue. Many solder pads have been removed, but these are NC fields.

I have obstructed the system twice and, unfortunately, the IMEI number is still missing, the phone has been uploaded and 3utool displays error -1 at 80%. On one forum, someone said that he sees the problem in the picture, but he does not want to provide information on what the problem is. Thank you for your help.

Unfortunately, there are so many servants in Poland who are happy with someone's problem.

I have checked the capacitors and have no short circuits.

On the voltage coils as in the attached picture.

Thank you for your help, I do not hide that I did it for the first time and it would be nice if the phone started.

First of all, is it possible to build your own Iphone from parts ? Have some of you already done it ?

Secondly, I'm looking for a list with all the differents parts needed to build an iphone. I was told that to build one I would need a original logicboard. Where could I find one, i've looked on ebay and i didn't found anything.

Any response would be appreciated.

I recently purchased an iPhone 7 with a cracked screen on eBay just to do one successful test run before I start offering the repair to customers. It just came in the mail yesterday and... I can't even start the repair, because I can't get it open. I have tried the iOpener with iSclacks, which did nothing. I ruined a pair of needlenose tweezers trying to jam them in there and twist it to get an opening, and feel like I almost got somewhere, but I didn't. Then I tried an iSesamo like in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIs6vLdH...

I don't know if I did it incorrectly, but it did not work. If anybody has any tips on how to do any of these correctly, or an alternative method, I am open to anything at this point since I just want to get this phone open. Thanks a lot!
