iPhone 6s: Phone reboots after clipping screen back in

Mon, 10 Mar 2025 01:27:34 -0700

Hello all,

I recently did a battery replacement on my iPhone 6s, and its been working great until i clip the screen backi n. After doing so the phone reboots, and after rebooting settings show that the iphones unable to determine battery health. This happens 5-10 mins after i clip the screen back in, and the battery health comes back upon disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, and remains working until i put the screen back in. What's the problem here and what do i do to solve it?

iPhone 6s: iPhone 6s replacement home button not working

Tue, 28 May 2024 02:30:32 -0700

My iPhone 6s's screen and home button are faulty. I ordered a third party replacement home button and screen from a different website. While replacing the screen, I accidentally ripped off the front camera flex cable (listed on step 22 of the iPhone 6s screen replacement guide on iFixit) while taking it out, but I kept on going with the repair. When I tested the phone out, the screen worked perfectly, but neither Touch ID nor the home button's actual functionality did not work. My question is if this is because of the front camera flex cable I broke earlier, or if it is something else. Thank you!

iPhone 6s: iPhone 6s EPIC REPAIR FAIL!

Fri, 17 May 2024 17:30:54 -0700

I tried to open up my old iPhone 6s to perform a dock connector replacement, but when I was pulling off the screen, my plastic pick to separate the display somehow got in between the digitiser and LCD, and caused damage to the LCD and the LCD also got ripped off the shield and ripped the home button cable! What went wrong do you think? I don't really care it's broken since I had it for years before I upgraded.

iPhone 6s: Issue with battery life after replacing lightning port

Tue, 23 Apr 2024 03:58:49 -0700

Hello! I changed the charging port on my phone 6s a couple days ago, and when it rebooted the first time, initially it had an issue where when it was connected to a charger it was fine, but when I disconnected it it turned off. I opened it back up and screwed around a little, just like plugging and unplugging stuff, and for some reason I cannot explain it started to work properly again. It worked fine for the entirety of the next day, it let me unplug it and run it for a while and be plugged back in. However, that night it started to repeat the problem. I did the same thing, opened it up and screwed around with it, and I thought I'd fixed it, but I woke up randomly in the middle of the night and found it was dead even though it was plugged in.

So I'm messing with it currently and it keeps rebooting. I plug it in, it says it's at 100%, I unplug it, it dies. Sometimes it turns on and says it's at 10% and it'll charge up like normal for a bit. But then I did the force reset (home + power button) and it just rebooted, said it was at 1%, and then jumped up to 100%. I have no idea what is happening. I replaced the charging port because when I plugged the phone it, it would connect and disconnect from the cable. This was not at all happening before. Granted, I did lose a screw in this and now there's a small piece that's kinda bulged upward. Could that be the issue? Or is this something completely unrelated to that?

Okay after doing the force reset and having it jump from 1% to 100% it seems to be working normal again??????? I have no idea what's going on. Gonna post this anyways to see if someone can help this cycle not continue
