This year-old video came in handy. I had every component ready to do my screen repair except the programmer. The programmer added $50 to my repair but it made the repair as professional as any repair that I've ever done. I had NO idea that this could even be done. I feel empowered. Thank you! Repair complete success!

Hey Hugh! Since you made a video previously on putting an iPhone 7 battery into a 6s, could you maybe do the same for an iPhone X battery into a Xs? I am wondering how this would work, as the X has a larger capacity but the battery fits perfectly (from what I’ve heard) in the Xs.

just a tip for everyone, make sure you keep the same earpiece from the original display to preserve face id, using an aftermarket earpiece may disable it. :)

yea that happened to me, but the original ear piece was broken so i had to replace it.

[@tomas6368]

Imagine if they had a reprogramming machine for home buttons

[@jarboer]

Would be cool but likely won’t happen as they’re paired to the device and it stores like a key in the SEP which is encrypted. Though it might be possible at some point especially with the checkm8 exploit, people were able to get the SEP key and if they can figure out how it works they might be able to at some point. Though that may be bad as then hackers could potentially access your passwords and bypass biometrics, which is why Apple doesn’t allow 3rd parties to repair the home button or FaceID as the SEP is a super important part of securing the device.

[@ignxdank]

They do but only Apple has it

[@tomas6368]

I know but like a public one

[@steffjack9798]

Jarrett Boersen buttt, they could make a machine for people that have the old faulty home button , then they basically plug the old button into the machine and upload the part code and then connect the new button and write the code into it so that the phone recognises the new button as the old one....

[@treytaylor4970]

Hugh I have a question and I'm becoming very impatient with not being able to use my iPhone X lol...anyways I accidentally dropped it in water a while back and I believe I was able to salvage it because the phone still turns on and seems to work somewhat flawlessly except for the fact that about 1/4 of the screen (the left side) doesn't seem to acknowledge touch at all. I can't select any apps on the left side of the screen and even my settings menu. So my question to you is, do you think its possible to get fixed? or do you think there is probably water damage and its not salvageable? also on another note...I broke my iPhone XR screen the other day and got it repaired by one of those kiosks in the mall and literally the next day it stopped recognizing my touch at random times. for the majority of the day the phone doesn't work but randomly it will begin to work for a short period of time. anything you recommend on my end to fix it by chance?

But they want $600 US dollars for the repair

Hey great video! Just one question. What happens if you don't use any programmer on the new display? Can it still be usable?

the screen will still be useable, but true tone will be purposely disabled and a permanent message may come up saying that it is not a genuine display. at one point i believe apple did try disabling the screen completely if it was not paired, but were sued or something and had to reverse that, though they are apparently still allowed to do this.
