[@JuanJimenez.]

virus killerism so how the hell did this guy managed to get a bunch of broken iPhone 5/4’s?

[@ilyasg2108]

Juan Jimenez there’s phone recycling bins. In stores like target, Best Buy, and the big Verizon stores. And of course from the dump, and a lot of smaller stores local to me have them so chances are they’re in stores around you too.

[@BoiLeek]

Found an iPhone 7 in an Ewaste bin around today last year. Had a badly cracked screen but worked perfectly and lucky for me it was iCloud unlocked. It’s been my daily for 1 year and I only bothered to fix the screen 2 days ago haha

[@fuzerocky7237]

Boi Leek lol just took out of e waste bins damn

[@Crpz]

Boi Leek where do you find these ewaste bins

[@BoiLeek]

Xoand sometimes retail stores have them at the front of the store but their locked. In my case I was working temporarily at one and they had their Ewaste bin in the back in the staff only area. It was full to the brim so I was guessing they were getting ready to sell off the busted devices to MobileMusters. When no one was looking I dug thru the bin and found a bunch of phones including my 7. There’s plenty of other places that have Ewaste bins but idk where

[@DieselSootGetsTheMoot]

You just got those phones to live another day Good job!

[@myyours_]

Can I ask question about my Broke iPhone?

[@natatatronnr1574]

@@myyours_ yeah sure what happend to it ?

[@myyours_]

Natatatron NR1 long story short I attempted to replace my broke screen (iPhone SE) and accidentally broke some pins of the digitizer/lcd connectors on the logic board. Do I have to replace the whole logic board or can the pins for that one connector be fixed? Also if I have to replace the logic board, will my storage on the phone be lost?

[@natatatronnr1574]

@@myyours_ you can replace the connector but you need first of all the tools and a lot of skill you can go to a level bourd repaire shop but a repaire does cost around 80 € i fink its more worth it to just buy a other iphone se from ebay where you know that everything does work and its not icloud lock if you buy a other iphone se. you can,t get the data back if its stored on the iphone you broke you have to repaire the phone to get the data back . if it is on the icloud account stored you should not have to worry about your data to much .

[@InstantNameOfficial]

3:17 a bootloop can be fixed easily, i had it on many phones i 'played' with, found it out myself you can just hold/spam the power button to fix it.

[@NandiCollector]

I just found your channel and subbed ASAP! And I never had an iPhone! 😂 I just love to watch your restoring techniques. Keep up the good work.

How do you get phones from ewaste? Is it a facility somewhere? I’m interested in doing this myself as a hobby

[@OzZVidz]

Privilege same. I’ve repaired a 6 and a 6+ and I’m only 14. This would be really cool. (I live in MA so lmk)

[@il-lame-li9866]

So at my father's job they have an ewaste bucket were people can throw away their ewaste so something like that could be how he got them

[@fatfalcon3434]

[@fatfalcon3434]

@virus killerism Yeah, but aside from a few geeks out there nobody in their right minds would buy an Iphone 4,4s or 5 in 2019.

[@ryangriffin2502]

When working on an iPhone battery, its much easier taking the screen off as you then have one less thing to worry about. Isopropyl alcohol is your best friend when it comes to the pull tabs if they break off. One more thing you could do is maybe remove the charging port to allow you to pull the tabs at a better angle. Other then that, your well lucky finding those phones mostly unlocked.

[@redlinevr6885]

Where do you get e waste phones ???

[@docsynth4387]

In case anyone is wondering no you can't really get phones from ewaste companys. If you really want to know how to get old phones and tech try dumpster diving or going out on garbage day and see if there is boxes or stuff; (go in trashcans if you dare but people will get pissed) or sometimes you can find them lying on sidewalks or roads, I found a few phones that way.

[@lastshot2325]

Where do you get these from? I get that it’s e-waste but how do you get hold of them I can invest in this

[@rarenathan]

Flame_Sense same question

[@DieselSootGetsTheMoot]

Go to a mobile musters bin or any ewaste bin and seebb CB if you got any luck

[@nathanhoward5189]

Is it legal to take from ewaste? I'm in England so I'm guessing law us different to US.

[@lastshot2325]

[@ilyasg2108]

Yo, you’re literally the only one who had the SIM card idea or medical id. Besides me lol! I text the owner or their relatives and pretend to be a phone donation company that needs them to removed from fmi. It works almost all the time. I love your videos man! Keep up the great work! :D

[@KentRoads]

That was very nice of that person to allow you to have that phone unlocked..

[@KentRoads]

The charge controller needs battery power to run? I think the blackberry playbook had an issue with this

[@kbhasi]

6:12 Oh my, the pink hue damage (or "pink screen" as I called it). I used to have an iPhone 5S that had that same issue, and my OnePlus One also suffers from the same issue, but rather than the pink hue being in the middle, it's a ring near the edge of the display, with the middle still being white. 8:51 You were able to deform the battery THAT MUCH and not have it explode?!?

[@faiy3z]

Battery dont explode if there bent

[@donnysmokes4641]

This is the first video of yours that I’ve watched and I love it! New subscriber! :)

[@trevorwooden7626]

I want to go e wast and get some phones to start a collection and repair. What is it like when you go to the east center. You should make a video on going to the e waste center

[@asjpalms]

Every ewaste centre is different. The one I go to lets me take home devices to test. The ones that are sold I split the profit with the centre.

[@trevorwooden7626]

Asjpalms do you still have lots of extra tools for opening phones and doing repairs? I need to stare doing repairs but don't want to pay for the iFixit pro tech toolkit. It's a good kit but to high in price. My goal is to get one of every iPhone in every color. That would be my main collection that I would put on a shelf with charging docs but after that I would make a collection like Hugh Jeffrey's

[@missionpassed4584]

The previous owner of the stolen phone just has to log onto Icloud website using their Iphone account details on a pc, all the old photos should be on there, also may have photos of the thief as this has happened before, unless it was never backed up.

[@Gunzee]

I picked up an iPhone 6 and 6s+ from a waste site, along with two original ps1 controllers and fake ps3 ds3 pad. The six worked to confirm it's unlocked and functions, then gave touch ic issues. Switching it off fixes it for 3-5 minutes. I plan on reflow that ic. The 6s+,the one I really want is cloud locked. It's been wiped so I'm guessing maybe not stolen but as is seems to be working fine so i wonder why it was there. Yes there's a sim & I hope to contact the previous owner. PS, the iPhone 5 is terrible to work on, the home button latch and super short screen leads are so frustrating. I had to do a similar test to you upon a 5s and it took all my will not to throw the damn thing across the room, G. Ramsey style. When attaching the screen, the first connector is so hard to snap into place, as are the other two. Then there's those 4 screws holding down the metal piece. It took ages to get the tiny screws into place by which point the first connector had popped off! Please tell me the 6 is more easier to work on.

[@JonnyHatSwag]

Whats the name of such sites

[@Gunzee]

@@JonnyHatSwag I find my stuff from my local recycling center, go on google and search your local area & electronic waste disposal or recycling centre. My local recycling site has very small e-waste section. There are 12 bins around 20ft high, 7ft wide and 40 ft long. The e-waste bins are tiny in comparison, just 4ft high but that makes it easier to look into and pick items. I've got nice items from those bins, ps1's, snes, vcrs and last week a VHS video camera. Go during the start of spring (ppl clear out their junk) and avoid bad weather, rain not only damages items but the environment is very dusty. Ask anything you want, good luck hunting.

The 5S with the screen, which you say has heat damage, looks exactly what my own iPhone SE screen has, just a stronger version. I know a friend how has an iPhone 5 who also has that effect on their screen. So, I think it's just an error with some of the 5-series screens, rather than heat damage.
