When I try to play music or videos, the sound seems like it’s playing “in the background” or through some other device, even though I’m not on a call or connected to a Bluetooth speaker.

I reset Bluetooth and checked connections, but the phone still shows it’s “talking to someone” or stays connected to something I can’t see. It started around 2–3 days ago after a weird disconnection event.

Could this be a rogue Bluetooth pairing, AirPlay hijack, or something more serious? I’ve already tried:

– Resetting network settings

– Turning Bluetooth off/on

– Hard reset

– Forgetting all devices

Any advice? I’m worried something might be hijacking my audio.

My iPhone 16 Pro Max (iOS 26.1) is stuck in a boot loop: Apple logo appears and disappears every 10-15 seconds, never gets past it.

Details:

  • Storage is completely full (0 bytes free)
  • No iCloud backup and no computer backup at all
  • All photos, videos, WhatsApp chats, contacts… are extremely important – data loss is NOT an option

What I already tried:

  • 3uTools → fails with error -100 at ~71% (filesystem writing blocked by full storage)
  • Recovery mode & DFU mode → same result

I need a way to fix this while keeping 100% of the data (Retain User Data / no erase). I’m okay going to a trusted technician in Cairo if needed.

Any working method or recommendation for a reliable repair shop in Egypt that can solve this without wiping the phone?

Thank you so much for any help!

After reassembling, the phone now continuously turns on and off (reboots by itself).

Here are the details:

  • The phone sometimes powers on, shows the Apple logo, and then immediately restarts.
  • I have checked that all connectors (battery, display, Face ID, MagSafe) are seated properly.
  • The device does not stay stable even without the back glass connected in some tests.
  • Attempting a DFU restore does not work; the phone either restarts during the process or gives errors.
  • All screws were double-checked, and no obvious damage is visible on the board.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue after a back glass replacement on the iPhone 16 series? Any guidance on diagnosing or fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated.
