iPhone 13 Pro Max: After a front screen replacement, phone keeps restarting

Sat, 25 Apr 2026 01:44:28 -0700

Hi everyone!

I have recently had my front screen replaced as I accidentally dropped it and it smashed. I took it to my local repair shop and he changed the screen, though after 3 minutes the phone kept on continuously restarting, the screen would freeze, go purpleish-pink and then reboot.

I took the phone back and got him to change the screen to a different one, in case this one was faulty, but it kept happening.

I have found the panic dump and attached the screenshot here, could one of your marvellous people have a look at the first page and let me know what is happening so I can go back to the repair shop and tell him to fix it? I have also downloaded the whole file as well and stored it in Dropbox.

Asus Laptop: 华硕天选4 usb接口短路后漏电，扩展坞有电流声但数据传输正常，更换双电源未果求指点维修方向

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 23:41:31 -0700

Asus Tiansuan 4 series. When the USB interface was short-circuited, it caused an electric current sound inside the USB docking station when inserting it. Maybe there was a breakdown or leakage somewhere inside? The peripheral data can still be transmitted normally. Currently, I have replaced the main power supply and the auxiliary power supply, but the problem persists. Is there any expert who can offer some advice? Can I fix it at home myself?
华硕天选4系列，usb接口被短接瞬间，导致插入usb扩展坞是扩展坞内部有电流音，可能是内部哪里被击穿漏电？外设数据还能正常传输，目前更换了主电源和副电源，依旧存在问题。有无高手可以指教一二，自己能在家修好吗？

iPhone 14 Plus: Can anyone tell me what the issue can be, any guess

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 21:38:46 -0700

I have an iPhone 14 Plus that was water damaged. I cleaned the motherboard properly using isopropyl alcohol and then lightly dried it with a heat gun just enough to evaporate the alcohol. After that, I reassembled the phone. I cleaned all components the same way except for the charging port assembly. I only cleaned the charging port from the outside and did not remove or clean the flex cable.

I also replaced the battery with another one to rule out any battery-related issue.

After putting everything back together, the issue still persists. When the phone is unplugged and I try to turn it on, it makes a small “cling” sound and then goes directly into DFU mode. It keeps repeating this behavior every time I try to power it on.

When I connect the phone to a laptop while it’s in DFU mode and attempt to restore it using iTunes, the restore process starts but freezes halfway through. The screen stays stuck for a long time and does not complete. I repeated the process multiple times with the same result. I also tried restoring using 3uTools, but it behaves the same way, the restore begins and then gets stuck halfway.

I have infinix hot 10s and recently I noticed that after giving 5-6 hours in charging it 100% it only last for 1.5 to 2 h. And also it get re-start on it's on multiple time in a row without taking a pause of even 1 sec making it hard even impossible to use. It's also sometimes get switched off on it's own after just 1/2 an hour of full charge, get switched off on ~40 to 50% and when I try to get it on it shows 0%.
