My iPhone 6s fell this past weekend and since then has been stuck in a boot loop (apple logo appears and disappears) whenever it is plugged in to an outlet.

Ultimately I'd like to pull the data out of my phone via iTunes backup, but the problem I'm facing is that my iPhone does not seem to boot up when plugged in to my PC's usb port.

Anyone have an idea how I can enact atleast a bootloop on a PC or get my turned off iPhone recognized in iTunes?

I tried finding answers via search, but nothing seems to touch on the issue of my iPhone not booting when plugged in to a usb port on the PC.

Thank you.

Because if you buy an iCloud locked but everything is okay with it lets say I bought it for $100 and I iCloud unlock it and that costs $30 you only pay $130 for a perfectly good iPhone instead of $900, thanks!

I repair a lot of iPhones , ipads, but sometimes when i have to change a battery there's a sort of smell like polish remover coming from the battery .

The odour is not very annoying but when i sniff/breathe this odour, I feel a few headaches during 1 hour or less.

This odour can also be breathed sometimes on new batteries (Which are defective) or used batteries and sometimes also when taking off the batteries when it is broken

What this smell is composed of ?

Thanks

We did a screen replacement after repair was completed. We then tested everything even TouchID. Customer then took it back home to restore device through iTunes. Customer stated the restore went halfway, stopped and then popped a message on the screen stating "Non-OEM Hardware Detected". We did not replaced the TouchID home button, just the screen assembly.

Since we still had original screen, we put back the original screen then restored the device to our surprised it worked 100%. We believe 3D touch panel is married to the phone itself, just as the Touch ID button was in the iPhone 6. Device has restored fully. Touch ID is reading perfectly. Going to try to transfer the 3D touch panel to the new replacement screen and test.

This is so far first and only device that we experienced this issue and we are still not 100% if this for every iphone 6s screen replacement.

Updated

We glad to see everything actively testing this issue out and glad to hear that the issue hasnt happen to anyone else. We do apologies for the scare and also not having the proof to show our claim. If we do come across this issue again we will provide pictures and or video. If anyone else can recreate this odd issue we had please let us know. :) Thank you

I noticed that the sound volume of any recorded video in my iPhone 6s starts low and then increases/ decreases with no obvious reason.

The sound result is like switching microphones front/rear, however I am not an expert and this is just a wild guess to describe how it feels like.

When I play the video in my computer, the sound issue is still there, so it should be a microphone hardware or software issue?

I haven't exposed the phone in any humidity sources nor having dropped it.

For the record I have tried to tackle the above issue by:

- testing the iPhone's stock camera app vs. other video recording apps and the issue persists.

- restoring and set up as new

- resetting options etc

with no good results.

iOS 12 revamped the voice memo app and I now cant figure out how to quickly test the ear speaker like I always have. Any suggestions?

i checked the motherboard by myself with a microscope, i am not so experienced but nothing unusuall and no missing parts near the FPC connectors, but when i push the power button and phone start and try to boot this part of the motherboard get really hot

There is the Memory Chip in this part of the motherboard and i think that this phone is shorted in there. Can someone tell me if this phone can work again or not?

The cracked screen was working prior to the replacement. The new screen does not light up, but when the phone is plugged in to iTunes, the device is detected, but no display.

We tried the old screen again and the screen comes on. Did I receive a faulty new screen?

I have just replaced my cracked iPhone 6s screen with a replacement i bought from Ifixit. When I try and put the last 2 Pentalobe screws back into the bottom edge of the phone ( with the correct screwdriver i got from Ifixit). The screws are not getting any tighter... and fall out easily. An suggestions?
