Can Siri hear you? Could you here your dad? If so the charging port you purchased is probably faulty. From the iPhone 8 up they are particular about aftermarket charge ports. I suggest purchasing one from a reputable supplier.

If you are going to put thermal paste back on the CPU than Artic silver will be fine. Although I think it would be a waste of time and money as thermal paste will only dissipate the heat when underneath a heatsink. But that is just my opinion.

Firstly you should not rely on ZXW for diode readings, you should compare with a known good board. ·         Have you got red probe on ground when testing? ·         What readings are on 31 and 32? Are they the same as 34? If these pins are all reading 0.007 than are four things you need to check. 1.       Connector. 2.       C4633 3.       C4632 4.       The small audio IC (U5002) It is hard checking camera circuits as you need to have the flex connected. Also the camera app should be open when checking power rails. You can do this easy with an iBridge.

Yes it is possible to change a part on the logic board which could bring the phone back to life. But to do this you would need the proper equipment and experience as first you need to know which line is faulty and what component on that line is faulty. As for replacing the logic board it would be easier to buy a second hand iPhone 6. It would work out about the same price. However if you have already brought parts for the one you have it wouldn’t hurt to buy just the logic board but make sure the original home button comes with it.

Firstly make sure you have ruled out parts. And make sure: ·         you are using the right Tigris IC (TI SN2400AB0) not the (SN2400B0) ·         Make sure Tristar is soldered properly. ·         Check SWI circuit. ·         Check Q2101 you can jump it if required. ·         And don’t forget the battery connector.

More than likely the water has caused damage on the logic board. Try cleaning the connector and the surrounding components with Isopropyl alcohol. Other than that you would need the right equipment to diagnose the problem like multimeter, Broadview software and schematics.

You will not know for sure until you try and activate it but if it is still activated on the previous owners iCloud account there is nothing you can do besides contacting them or ask for a refund. Sometimes those sites used for checking IMEI show cached information.

Did you recently have the screen replaced? Siri uses the microphone on the front camera flex assembly. You may need to have it replaced.

Forget about the backlight until you have image. You said mainboard connectors all tested well. So you are getting ·         1V8 on pin 5? ·         5V7 on pin 1 and 3? What are diode readings of pin 7 and 9?

No they are not interchangeable. They have different size connectors and flex cables.
