Apple iPhone 6s and Newer Display Adhesive Application- How To

[@daTexy]

the worst thing about this repair is that theres only one way to find out if you've really fixed it

[@jeetsharma6326]

Lol the Steve Jobs book was a savage move

[@courtneyhooks198]

I got water in my phone and had a lot of accumulation on the front and back cameras. After cleaning out the water I sealed the phone and never thought about the adhesive, until a little black spot appeared on the bottom of my screen after a rainy day. This video was really helpful in guiding me on re sealing my phone! definitely keeping my phone away from water! Thank you!

[@ScaredPilot]

Do not consider the phone waterproof if you have replaced the screen. Replacement screen or earpiece speaker may not be waterproof. This guide usually suits better if you are replacing internal components like the battery or the camera and would like to reseal the phone like new.

[@EB3Studios]

The Steve Jobs book was my favorite part!! lol

[@Jack-hx8yz]

For clarification: S: That’s not a 6S! A: Correct. S: The iPhone 6S isn’t water resistant A: Correct. Q: Why is the iPhone 6S listed in this video? The iPhone 6S is listed in this tutorial because there is an adhesive seal under the screen. What iPhones does this tutorial cover? A: iPhone 6S and later.

[@MohammedYaseenAhammed235]

can you use the iopener to seal it back again or does it have to be a hairdryer?

[@MrLuisMaldonado]

Thank you very much ifixit for this guide!. I replaced the adhesive on an used iphone 8 i bought, followed every step very carefully and now the screen seals perfectly with the frame.

[@Lvlaple4Ever]

Should've dunked it in water to test if he did the job...

[@thestranger79x]

Ifixit I apprecite your guides lot of info, but wow why are your prices so ridiculously expensive, its cost prohibitive. 2x,3x,4x everyone else, I even seen other places that sell your own name brand tools cheaper than you

[@fabianmoreno1968]

Did you guys test water resistance afterwards

[@nmotschidontwannagivemyrea8932]

Neat, I didn't know you could restore water resistance after taking the device apart on your own. Can you do this with other water-resistant gadgets or is the iPhone's method of water resistance abnormal?

[@kidwow6795]

Do I have to do this If I only fix the battery

[@Mr.Cool8]

Are those good as the factory?

[@Wtrxprs007able]

now where was this when i needed it lol. can't find anywere to get those adhesive strips

[@peatear42]

Is the adhesive for 6s and 7 interchangeable?

[@viphonekings6136]

Great Video On iPhone Repair. It's nice to see a good POV to further my knowledge

[@oooKR3Wooo]

I don’t care much about water proof but is this good to keep the iPhone screen from sticking out or should I try a different solution.

[@ultra1obscene]

it will not stop the screen sticking out, the reason is sticks out is cheaper/aftermarket screens are thicker than the originals. i guess it will hold it in place better than nothing!

[@ramigirgis8984]

You guys are the best. Very detailed and practical videos. Parts and tools are also of great quality. Thank You!

[@MaroSplatuber]

*Do a Samsung galaxy s9 teardown video*

[@lockhart1895]

What about the galaxy s8 ?? Water resistance after repair

[@midothecoolguy]

this is iphone 7 right ? why u write iphone 6s and the 6s is nt a water resistant

[@danielgeorgiou8409]

6s or newer

[@EdwardJamesBickels]

The 6S isn't officially water resistant, but the adhesive under the screen is present on it.

[@emotionz3]

Edward James Bickels the 6S added force touch, which depends on a different kind of screen adhesive to accurately work. The 6 has no adhesive whatsoever, the screen just clips in. iPhone 7 and newer are water resistant.

[@kerkers5775]

Splashproof only ! IP67

[@liviu3307]

It’s iphone 7! Look at the camera bump: it’s made of the same piece with the back of the phone

[@yakuza9859]

But iphone 6s isnt waterproof. Why i need that resistance?

[@keiou]

Why not test it afterwards?

[@ehdbom]

no way to test it, it isn't waterproof only water resistant...

[@howtowithelizabeth7513]

Thinking of doing mine but I can’t tell what’s legit and what’s not

[@kakebukkake]

I just want to replace the battery of my Iphone 6s. Is it necessary to apply this adhesive before closing the phone?

[@suhaylnawar7232]

kakebukkake its not but it’s recommended

[@Gevo_A]

Is this 100% water resistant if applied properly? Because it’s going straight into the water within the week lol

[@nandr0007]

very needed video thanks and also first one to comment

[@hashirahmad2604]

Is this blue sheet necessary?Can i just skip this bluesheet and just put the screws back?Please reply?

[@xxnike0629xx]

@iFixit Video Thank you for another informative video, but I think most people watching this are using iPhones that are at least the iPhone 7 and above now.

[@AznUzer]

xxnike629xx “iPhone 6S or newer”

[@irfanfazalurrehman5718]

Iphone 7 adhesive seal can be use for iphone 6s or not

[@jamesquizon3508]

What if i only change the battery do i still need to change gasket?

[@rodrigoquintos1889]

Good Job !!

[@Timmmmhhhuuee]

Is this process the same with Samsung phones and why do you heat it from the back not from the front?

[@Jack-hx8yz]

Tim Krijnen Nope.

[@kamilhess8734]

Well done Alex!

[@ExCoSeH]

Wait but the iPhone 6s isn't water resistant to begin with?

[@Jack-hx8yz]

Obi It’s not

[@ExCoSeH]

Why does it say "to maintain water resistance" then?

[@snatchgaming3084]

Will you tear down the ticwatch s and e please.

[@JoseReyes-yd6cp]

What about when you need to remove the front camera and earspeaker and the home button to replace it on the new screen..…the water wouldn’t go tru????

[@turraozinho]

FINALLY!!!

[@afifsyamim2732]

Can we drop into water after done this?

[@SenyorArvin]

Where can we buy the iPhone adhesive i'm from the Philippines. Thanks!

[@ֆքǟռ-m5g]

Nice job,thx. 🙏🏼

[@ArraxShadowfang]

Nice and Thank you

[@o73venky]

You guys rock!

[@woounie]

Can be applied on iphone 6?

[@carloss6641]

does it work on the iphone 6?

[@BerlinerLopez]

Sir how much will it cost apple care noob broke my adhesive strip

[@johaniracheta4908]

Any for iPhone XS Max?

[@halilyurek5434]

I miss Steve 😭

[@1_Romano]

Why didn't you test the phone for the viewers? 🤔

[@VincenzoSims]

Interesting.

[@chrisbrinzo]

If you're good enough you can preserve the original adhesive. Whether or not it's as effective as replacing it with a new one is a different story.

[@Hurileno]

it would be much better if you replace it completely tbh some aftermarket adhesives for the iPhones are actually better than the OEM ones

[@SMB-ly5lx]

iPhone 7😍😍😍😍

[@kerkers5775]

No iPhone ist Water Resistant (IP68) ! They are only IP67 Certified (Spashproof). All 2017 Phones from Samsun got IP68 Certifikation ! Once opend this is gone....

[@vbeats112]

iphone 6s is not even water resistance

[@Methnerjacob]

It actually is. Nothing spectacular but Apple did introduce the adhesive liner on the 6S.

[@Jack-hx8yz]

Jake Methner No it’s not water resistant.

[@Jack-hx8yz]

*resistant

[@TmkSVK]

But this is iphone 7

[@eeresponsible]

"Water resistance" is a relative term though. If you mean it doesn't have an official IP rating, then you're right. That doesn't mean there aren't water-resistance measures in its design though, such as the gaskets around buttons and the display assembly adhesive.

[@tungduong11]

It's iphone 7, dude

[@Jack-hx8yz]

Blad Dương This method applies to all iPhones, iPhone 6S and onward.

[@melanie-beltran]

Anyone tried doing this? I’m about to doctor miama my phone. No way I’m getting a new one lol

[@macieg8234]

iPhone 7 is water-resistant (IP67) and that’s why it needs adhesive.

[@8pyy]

Iphone 6s or iphone 7 really its iphone 7

[@vincentmiller7332]

You guys said that was for an iPhone 6s but you used an iPhone 7

[@lilvodka7500]

It's because the same method applies to the 6S , it's no different

[@BaconFaceMcGee]

Watching this on my iPhone 7.

[@justincase3880]

IFixit adhesive strip TOTAL JUNK .. won’t stick to phone .. you can’t separate the center plastic like the video shows and you can’t pull plastic/Mylar away with the adhesive staying on the phone ....

[@Sashiko20]

As an apple's authorized service provider employee i'm looking in shock as this guy heats the iPhone ... *_*

[@ZeldaAwesomeZA]

What do you do then?

[@valo1999]

why?

[@pennydome5051]

I remember that IPhone 6s have not the water resistant skill...

[@Jack-hx8yz]

[@Jack-hx8yz]
