The Greenhills Theater Mall was an actual cinema and Theater Hall. That is where I saw movies like Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Edwards Scissorhands. Back 2 the Future 1 and 3. in the big screen. They even have rock mineral collection on glass display at the old Greenhills Theater. Today the mall is cookie cutter up into small multiplex cinemas. The large open space where you could roam around is now retail spaces.

[@lzalab2286]

it’s way cheaper the labor and parts in the PH , here in the US they will charge you a LOT 😂

[@darthbiker2311]

I had my sister's 2006 Intel-based iMac repaired at a neighborhood shop as well here in Las Piñas. The technician said he used to work for a Power Mac. The hard drive was corrupted and had to be replaced. He also offered to upgrade the memory for free. That was 10 years ago. I ended up giving the iMac to a niece who needed a computer for online class. Obsolete as hell, but it still works to this day.

Remember a repair on a Packard Bell laptop. Impossible , they said in Belgium. 1 week later in Nong Khai , Thailand: new original battery sent from BKK: 50 $. The boss offered 150€ for the screen because a 17” was unobtanium in Thailand those days. Later also repair jobs on iphones en Oppo’s. Always great to watch those techno nerds fiddling away, until all works fine again. I always walked away, watched a movie or so. Was never betrayed. Bought the kids some drinks or snacks which they appreciated. Will have a look at Greenhills in November. See ya all

[@nightwing4065]

There's was a huge expansion at Greenhills Shopping Center, that's why you got cofused at the beginning. Hot dang, they really did a fine job. They're even using a microscope to see the Apple components. 👍

[@edvelasco71748]

I’m glad you have found an honest smart technician who could do that.

[@mleong1977]

If you're using a non OEM screen, Kuya will need to reset the display from your old screen otherwise current IOS detects "Unknown Part" in your Parts and service history settings. This so call feature of Apple is to deter people of going to non accredited repairers which obviously part of their tactic to monopolise the after sales market.

[@blakegriplingph]

My thoughts exactly. There's a tool they use to copy data from the old screen and other serialised parts to the new part to trick iOS into believing that the old component is still there. On newer models the IC from the old screen has to be salvaged and soldered onto the new display. Also, be careful with choosing replacement display panels. Hugh Jeffreys made a video where he explains that cheaper displays for iPhone X and newer models operate at a higher voltage due to the need for a backlight (as they are LCD instead of the OLED Apple intended) and thus they run the risk of frying your phone's logic board.

I have an iPhone 12 Mini and a S22 that I brought from the US last year. Recently I bought a Realme 10 4G for a little over $200. Does everything I need, fast enough, large screen, earphone jack, dual sim and SD card slot. I'm sure it can be easily repaired here in the Philippines too.

[@kcinplatinumgaming2598]

good video....a majority of the problems with apple devices is now the firmware related .. be wary when buying computers ect ... if the screen breaks the devices are digitally signed to that model and even attempted replacing the model's part with the same model replacement screen can also result in non-compatible issues now.. which will make these little stalls have many issues obtaining parts even genuine ones. Apple and samsung are notorious for making it exspensive or difficult to carry basic repairs

[@cooktan5665]

The silent area you went in is the VIRRA MALL. They rebuild it. Now your inside the back of the Greenhills Shopping Mall at the side of Virra Mall. I grew up in that area. It's the Mall where myself, my cousins hang out everyday. Before it's called Greenhills Shopping Center and there is a fountain ⛲ in the middle and small amusement park in the middle of the center. It's an open area. Now they close it with roof top There's no much building. The Shopping Center is in the middle and the parking is around the Center. It is the 1st shopping center in San Juan. No SM, no BGC yet and all. Thank you for going there and now I'm seeing the NEW Building Shopping Center of GREENHILLS. 😊
