iPhone 7 black screen of death repair in hamilton new zealand

Got no display  iPhone 7 black screen of death repair at AppleFixHamilton. There could be many reasons why iPhone 7 lcd screen gone completly black.

o   It could be because of impact damage.

o   Battery connectors not removed while replacing lc

o   Poor quality copy lcd used.

o   Electric discharge because of not working on antistatic mat with ESD clip.

It could happen even if none of all of above. iPhone 7 lcd screen use 20volts to lightup and sudden high power flow can blow any of the backlight circuit component. iPhone 7 backlight circuit is consist of resistors, capacitors, fuses ics and coils. First component to blow are fuses in the iPhone 7 backlight circuit and these fuses are there for the same reason so that any other component does not damage. If you are an iPhone technician and carrying out iPhone 7 black screen of death repair first components you will be checking are fuses. See below picture of an iPhone 7 backlight fuse is blown.

We find out one of the fuse on iPhone 7 backlight circuit is faulty it was removed and soldered new fuse and backlight come to life again. If you are fixing an iPhone 7 with black screen problem check the below components first.

if all of above fuses are working fine and still there is no display on iPhone 7 than it is backlight ic which is not working. iPhone 7 display driver boost ic is u3 part name is u3703. failure of this ic is also a common fault. This is not DIY repair. Even if you are a technician but if you don’t have micro soldering skills don’t try it is difficult and more over you should have knowledge to read schematic digram otherwise you might end destroying the iPhone.

iphone not charging even after battery and charging port replacement

What do you thing could be wrong with your iPhone not charging even after battery and charging port replacement the next component in the line is charging ic which also known as u2 charging ic or tristar  charging ic part number 1610a2. Replacing charging ic is very skilled job. This is one of the smaller ic / part on iPhone logic board. Other than iPhone not charging even after battery and charging port replacement are also fake charging where iPhone will show different percentage of iPhone charged and dropped quickly within minutes and iPhone will turns off. One of other faulty iPhone u2 charging ic is very slow charging and then battery drains quickly.

We have seen unskilled technicians try to heat u2 ic thinking this might fix the problem but this will make it even worse. iPhone u2 charging ic is underfill ic so don’t try to heat it as the solder joints / balls on underfill ic with heat will explode and will damage the lines. See in the above picture we have taking the iPhone charging ic and clean the surface area and the pads on the logic board are exposed and shinny and ready to take new charging ic.

If you are bit familiar with ic replacement on iPhones specially one of the tiniest on iPhone logic board like this u2 ic you will appreciate the high level of skilled work you see in the above picture. No mess around the work and a clean pull and board is ready to adapt new ic.

Second type of repair which we have done successfully is replacing U10 ic on the home button assembly. The way back communication to the processor or logic board from iphone 7 and 7 plus home button is controlled by u10 ic which is mounted on the home button assembly. This ic is not easy to replace as it is mounted on to the flex cable not on hard pcb. To remove u10 ic from home button we use a special tool see below picture.
