iPad 8: How do I replace my ipads charging port?

Sat, 15 Aug 2026 18:05:50 -0700

As said in the title I have an Ipad gen 8 and its been very picky about how its plugged in to charge. A few days ago it stopped charging all together. I took it to the genius bar and was told the port was the problem and I needed a new ipad (not an option at the moment) so does anyone have any resources of changing/repairing the charging port of my Ipad? (also very suspicious that it $@$* itself a month before they stop servicing this gen of ipad rolls eyes)

iPad 9 LTE: iPad won't turn on, need help with diagnosing

Mon, 15 Jun 2026 14:15:44 -0700

Hello :) I own 9th gen iPad, that doesn't charge and I can't turn it on. I'm trying to diagnose it, I have basic knowledge in fixing electronics.

I have iBridge A3 Lightning port tester, everything is green during test.
I have dissasembled iPad, connected power power supply directly to board (4V) (everything but power button was disconnected from board), there was no current draw so i think it excludes any obvious short circuit. After pressing power button iPad starts to draw about 0.95-0.12A and nothing happens. I have also connected display to board to check if anything displays, but no. Nothing heats enough so I can feel by touch, I have also tried freeze spray test but I didn't notice anything warm/hot.

Can somebody provide me any directions? Despite all green on iBridge tester, can it be Tristar chip? Or is it dead cpu? I hope somebody can give me some directions. I have hot air station and access to microscope, so I can resolder something, but I need some guidance what else to check. :)

iPad 10: iPad 10 not charging after customer inserted metal object into port.

Wed, 27 May 2026 07:17:19 -0700

I’m repairing an iPad 10, that’s not charging and restarting.

The customer inserted a metal pick to clean the charge port and he describes it going bang and some smoke.

I’ve identified 2 issues but don’t know the part names/lines/voltages etc.

I’ve found an ic that’s cracked - top left off the LCD connector - its numbers are:

37A80R8 - 2E4B - F2A2Z - can some one tell me what this ic is for?

The only short to ground I’ve found is in the first pic. Just to the top right of the PMIC - 8 caps and 2 Coils short to ground.

Many thanks

iPad 8 Wi-Fi: Does anybody know if the logic board from an IPad 9 will fit in my 8?

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 11:27:16 -0700

I have an iPad 8 that is iCloud locked to my old account that they randomly deleted, and it is extremely cracked, and it’s o only 32gb and stuck on iOS 26 so you can’t do anything on it and I was wondering if the iPad 9 logic board fits in the 8th gen housing because I think they’re really the same size.

iPad 11: Is the digitizer the same as on the iPad 10th gen?

Sat, 04 Apr 2026 13:43:57 -0700

In this comment, a technician on YouTube says the digitizer is the same between the 10th & 11th gen. Can anyone here confirm that? Has anyone here done a digitizer replacement on an 11th gen? Can I just order the 10th gen digitizer for an 11th gen?

iPad 9 Wi-Fi: iPad worked great. Went to sleep and never woke up.

Fri, 13 Mar 2026 14:05:19 -0700

My iPad worked great and had no issues. My iPad went to sleep and never woke up. When I needed to use my iPad again it wouldn't turn on. I plugged it in and it didn't register that it had been plugged in for charging. I took it to an apple store and they said it had "mid system failure". I just replaced the battery on it and it has the same issue. My next thought is to check the connector pins. I'm not positive on what "mid system failure" means, but I was curious if any one had any idea and what I should check next or should be checking instead? Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

iPad 7 Wi-Fi: CPU Replacement - SN reset to original, but failing activation

Wed, 18 Feb 2026 06:33:02 -0700

Hey all! Hoping someone can drop some insight for me.

Had an issue with an iPad 7th gen being braindead. When I removed its CPU, seems I didn't quite get it hot enough and caused an internal short. So I pulled another CPU from an iP7, reballed it, tossed it on, restored the ipad, Changed the SN through Purple back to the Original SN (no reason to have a different SN), restored again through DFU and am where I am now.

Boots fine, is locked to the owners iCloud, but when connecting to wifi I am getting Unable to activate
This ipad connot be activated without an internect connection...

Do I need to generate or change the BT and WIFI mac addresses as well? If so, it seems I do not have the originals to just program on through purple again. Is there something somewhere that can generate them based on the systems SN?

Hope someone knows this and can help!
Thanks - and Pics for fun.

Damaged :(
