Need to include the microphone array cable from Step 20 ;)

Unfortunately the battery needs to be firmly adhered in place. Leaving it loose inside the phone is a possible fire hazard, since the battery's foil pouch may deform or get damaged if it's free to rattle around and potentially impact on nearby components. Unless your plan is to leave the phone lying flat on a table and never move it, I'd strongly recommend replacing the adhesive.

Sure! You can use everything through step 55 as prerequisites for a new guide.

Hall effect sensor for the crank is located right here!

@tomchai We took some measurements and I think you’re right. Good catch! The CR2032 battery from an AirTag is literally too thick for this iMac. Wow. Step has been updated accordingly.

Good eye! Yes, Creative Electron X-rayed the base model, so there are some differences from the mid-range unit in our teardown—mainly cooling hardware and ports.

The only connector I see at that location is the speaker connector—scroll up two steps from here and you’ll find instructions for disconnecting it.

Flickering on an external screen would not be caused by lack of calibration on the built-in display. Apple’s techs are required to perform a calibration step when they replace almost any part, but it’s not necessary in order for a new display to work—We’ve tested this many times. Even the term “calibration” can be misleading here, as often all they’re doing is verifying the repair with Apple’s servers so that the repair shop can get paid by Apple for completing the repair.

Normally when we see problems on both internal and external displays, I’d suspect a bad GPU, but it’s odd that it happened immediately after your repair. Does the external monitor flicker regardless of which port it’s plugged into? Have you tried them all? If so, I’d probably move your question to the Answers forum and maybe run through the standard troubleshooting checklist before going further. Good luck!

if this is not instructions, then what is this?

iFixit teardowns show the highlights inside new hardware and provide an early read on repairability. They’re usually published within 24 hours of the official product launch. Writing detailed repair guides takes more time, and those are published separately.

if you click that link it literally just loops you back to this page

It links you to the main device page for the Xbox One, which includes links to all of our repair manuals, as well as a link to this teardown.

Hi Chunglin! This is the only teardown iFixit will create for this particular iPad. We’ll also post repair guides at some point, as always.
