watch full video here
Professional iphone ear speaker and face id repair at AppleFix hamilton New Zealand at 125 ward street Hamilton. If you having low volume in ear speaker on your iPhone x you might lose face id if it is not fixed professionally.
Question is why replacing the ear speaker full flex cable will in any way fail the face id because face id is not in speaker? The whole functional area is dubbed the “TrueDepth camera system”, which is made up of flood illuminator, infrared camera, front camera, dot projector, proximity sensor, ambient light sensor, speaker and microphone.
So for iPhone x ear speaker and face id repair if you replacing full speaker assembly with new proximity sensor and ambient light sensor the face id will not work because true death camera system is made-up of proximity sensor, ambient light sensor. So you have to replace just the speaker.
will you lose face id if you replacing iPhone x ear piece full assembly?
Yes you will so just replace the ear speaker.
How face id works on iPhone x?
Every time you glance at your iPhone X, the flood illuminator detects your face with infrared light and forms an image. Then the dot projector will project out over 30,000 invisible infrared dots over your face to create a 3D map. Last, the infrared camera reads this map and sends the data to neural networks to create a mathematical model of your face. Your iPhone X will check that mathematical model against the one that you’ve set up and stored on your device to see if it’s a match, and if it is, it will unlock your phone.

macbook air a1466 backlight fuse and lcd connectors repair @ applefix hamilton new zealand
Professional macbook repair in hamilton new zealand. This macbook
air a1466 baclight fuse and lcd connectors repait done at applefix hamilton.
The logic board of the macbook was liquid damaged and after some repair
attempts at other macbook repair shops it was sent to us. Full backlight
circuit was blown including lcd connectors. i have already wrote a blog on
macbook backlight ic repair which you can read here.
On this macbook first we tested
backlight ic whcih was faluty and it was replaced but even after replacing the
back light ic still no image. i checked the lcd lvds connectors and find that
both backlight lines are burnt on lcd connectors and one of the backlight line
pad is ripped / burnt.
Even-though i could have jump
wired burnt connectors to existing lcd connectors but because of the extreme
liquid damage i decided to replace the macbook air lcd connectors.
In this kind of repair it is
very important to have knowledge of how to read schematic diagram. Specially
when some of the pads are burnt on pcb board. Without not having the knowledge
of where these lines are leading to it is almost impossible to do a successful
repair.
To check your macbook backlight problem you can read good
article here.
macbook air a1466 backlight fuse and lcd connectors repair
at applefix hamilton
If you are reading this article to have some knowledge it is
important to know that water or liquid damage electronics will not work just by
cleaning because if there is a short on the board it cant be removed by
cleaning. Cleaning is important but after you finished examining the board. The
solution we use for ultrasonic clean are military grade and will will leave any
traces of liquid damage after cleaning and it will be hard to find damaged
area. For example see in the below picture we can see where the damageIf your
macbook or any other electronic is liquid damaged. Do not turn on do not charge
you will make it worse. Rice remedy and hot cupboard treatment never worked.
Having moisture or any liquid inside or on the logicboard will create
conductivity and flow of the current throu this conductivity will burn the
small components on logic board.

iphone water damage repair no display fix fl2024 & j2019 jump wire - Applefix hamilton new zealand
Even though we wrote few blogs on iphone water damage repair previously. I decided to make live video watch at above link on iphone water damage repair no display fix fl2024 & j2019 jump wire.
When an iphone get water damage our advise to user is do not turn on do not try charging. Rice remedy and hot cupboard treatment does nothing. your iphone need proper cleaning and fix. There are 90% chances your water damage iphone will work fine if you bring it in with in 12 hours of damage.
Sometimes water damage repair is easy and sometimes it get difficult if multiple components are damaged on the logicboard.
Professional iphone water damage repair at Applefix hamilton new zeland
Finding a skilled iphone water damage repair shop is important as there are many shops and cowboys around. Find who has got professional workshop on site & has skills to fix complicated logic board repairs. Has experience , qualification & knowledge to read schematic diagrams. If a repair shop is outsourcing complicated or logicboard repairs and just acting as a middleman then go to professional directly and save money and time.
In above video the customer has around 4000 pictures and it got water damaged. There was no display at all. We tested iphone and findout iphone still alive but no display. We know from experience the most important line for display is pp_LCM_BL_anode and first component to check is FL2024. As you can watch in my you tube video the filter was burnt. Replaced the filter but still no display. Check in the below picture
Even after replacing the filter still no display. The power line through the filter is passing through capacitor c2017. and than connected to j2019 fpc lcd connector. When lcd lightsup it uses 20volts and if there is moisture on the lines it will blow filters and even lines on pcb board. In this particular water damaged iphone there was moisture / water was present in the same area and not only fl2024 blown the pads from j2019 could not handle 20volts and blown the line.
Finally we have jump wire the capacitor c2017 to fst_fm and we got the display.
From the video we learnt that if there is no display and iphone is live check the components on line pp_LCM_BL_anode

Unexpected restarting can be caused by the software,
content, or hardware. However, it’s hard to directly tell which one is the
culprit. If y have already tried doing complete reset through iTunes and you
have failed than most probably it is a hardware issue. In terms of hardware problem, I’m afraid
there is nothing you can do about it. It might be due to a damaged logicboard.
In this respect, you might have to take it to a well qualified apple repair
store like applefix hamilton at 125 ward street hamilton New Zealand. If you

problem. The tristar charging ic u4001 not showing any volt on 5 volts line on
c4006 capacitor and no power on c4004 1.8 volt line. Even though from our
experience on iPhone 6 6s if tristar ic has failed you can still boot the
iPhone with a charged battery. But on iPhone 7 and 7 plus faulty tristar ic
will make it restart.
