Use gloves, it helps a lot with making the job look even more professional. I used to dislike the idea of using gloves but after I started using them I found it to be quite good. It eliminates all the smudges and fingerprints left over on everything inside the phone.

[@riverdaletales8457]

Using gloves feels weird

[@marcthegodf186]

Xavier Bury-Stäubner yeah one time ones

[@monopod4022]

@@riverdaletales8457 I know, but it helps alot! I repaired my iPhone 5 (it was a screen replacement) and it was so dirty at the end result. Now i did the repair about a year ago and i now daily a gold 6s my sister gave me. She has an XR now.

[@NR20244]

The fact is I repaired my dad’s old iPhone 5c when I was 8 without gloves

[@ethanchow9170]

Sygem I do this shit all day and I somehow still enjoy sitting back and watching someone talk about it 😂one thing though. If the phone has been thru a screen replacement already I would change the home button gasket to make sure it doesn’t get twisted and the cable torn.

[@nolan__buckley_1471]

You should get a iPhone repair shop to fix a iPhone then take it apart to see if they did it right.

[@krauzet327]

i just stumbled upon your channel and now i cant stop watching... idk why but i found it satisfying seeing a broken phone beeing restored... KEEP MAKING GREAT VIDEOS!!

[@matthewstone3630]

Probably best repair video I’ve seen so far. I do recommend that with every iPhone when you test a new screen you should hinge the top of the screen to the frame just so if you pick it up, accidentally bump it or testing the touch you don’t rip or bend a cable. I repair phones daily and have been doing so for over 2 years. My mentor has been repairing for 6 years. I can’t possibly count how many devices I have fixed... just some reassurance on my word

[@pedroh54]

it’s so good to watch your videos repairing iPhones 😄 Have you ever considered opening a repair shop? lol

[@altonkilbourn1595]

He said a while back that really like working on other people's phones i don't blame him because some people will mess up their phones and want you to repair them for free and try to scam you i use to work in a cellphone repair shop some people will try to get over on you and lie

[@TechThatYT]

Please make more repair videos. Can you revive like the cheap iPhone 4 off of eBay series. Love to see those. Idk why it just makes me happy and excited to see things repaired!

[@viphonekings6136]

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

[@georgepollock6]

Awesome mate! Keep up the good work!!

[@prodigyaustralia]

A few things I'd like to mention. Not having a bash but being honest about small points. 1)The plastic camera alignment doesn't have to be on the phone.purely just a guide, I've never seen them move without the screen being smashed 2)The seal is only rated for 6 months by apple, very little repair shops actually seal them these days. Once you drop your phone there's no seal anymore.

[@WantToSeeMyLlama]

prodigyaustralia exactly, feels like he's just bashing a repair shop for no reason,

[@ethanchow9170]

alfie mcphail shop did ok, I’ve seen much worse.

[@laserguy8673]

Its there for a reason. That clear plastic keeps the lens in alignment with the cover. Keep it out and it will look like shit. Its like a car rim without guide, it won't sit center. Also, that seal makes the phone feel solid and prefents the screen from flexing. Keeping that out leaves a gap (the 6s frame is machined out deeper) and wil feel like shit. 3d touch might also not work fantastically

[@charles-9134]

How did you know the seal was only rated for 6 months? Where did you get the information? Cause I’m planning to buy a used iPhone X

[@drxgncs90]

Orange - that is available only for the 6s. Phones from the 7 and up have water resistant seals that don’t have a “age rating”. They last forever basically

[@tegemeamushi4790]

KEEP IT UP BROTHER ,THE VIDEO IS VERY HELPFUL

[@WantToSeeMyLlama]

it's not a waterproofing seal on the 6S it's there to give the screen a bit of resistance when using 3d touch to act as a barrier so when you are using the force touch there's not contact between the glass and the metal frame

[@lelouchia]

alfie mcphail isn’t that why he said ‘it helps with the 3D touch’

[@austinricker]

There is no contact between the glass and metal of the frame. All iPhone screens have a plastic bezel fully surrounding the edges of the glass. And 3D Touch works perfectly fine without the adhesive seal. It is always a good practice to replace the adhesive to allow for near stock functionality, even though the adhesive provided to most 3rd party repair shops isn't as good as the original adhesive and is almost never installed properly (including in this video).

[@SantiagoMonroy5]

3D touch is a software thing

[@kubasarnowski]

@@SantiagoMonroy5 It's hardware "thing". ;)

[@atomstarfireproductions8695]

I think I read an article about someone contacting Apple about the seal, and Apple said it helps with 3D Touch and helps prevent humidity from entering, however it is not for waterproofing and has not been tested for waterproofing.

[@jackboom9356]

I started repairing iPhones and ngl this guy is like my mentor. I started watching him and decided I wanted to do that and ever since I’ve been doing it. If anyone wants to try this I say do it because I’ve made some good money!

[@Saxophone_King]

Heads up, most small repair shops don't reinstall the seal. I've worked for multiple companies and none of them had the seals on hand to install

[@AodhanDragun]

That's because they either don't buy the complete kit or they don't get parts from apple. The repair shop I work at gets everything from apple so we dont have that issue. We have all their tools to repair iPhones. They provided us with two mac computers, a display press, the adhesive, etc.

[@mohdajrulmumininnorijan197]

Yep a “professional smartphone repair shop” always left behind a couple of screws and brackets, this is why I always repair my own phone and laptop,

[@iTechnology14]

Hugh Jefferys where do you find the genuine Apple screen but with the glass repaired

[@austinricker]

try searching "mobile sentrix", they may have the ability to refurbish screens and provide screen refurbishing. itechcare is another place that is good for refurbishing.

[@zycklacon9588]

I think he gets them from a site named Crazy Parts. However it only ships to New Zealand and Australia

I had a 6s plus, and did everything wrong . Just like the video , if he Didnt say the storage I would have thought it was mind because it had every symptom of the one in the video. Thanks for teaching me my mistakes!

[@RepairableUK]

What tool kit is the best for iPhone 7 and above?

[@kylemorrell7138]

Where do you find your screens at? I've been looking for good quality iPhone 7 Plus screens and found either cheap ones or really expensive "OEM" ones.

[@eazysmokes3743]

OEM screens aren't expensive this man does two things. Buys iCloud locked devices in good condition for cheap. Also buys just parts themselves on eBay go look there I found a iPhone 6s screen one crack for 16 dollars . 0 cracks is more like 35

[@kylemorrell7138]

I have no idea how he finds phones for so cheap. People on eBay in the US and Canada sell their phones cracked for like $50 below market value and for parts/not working phones for half of market value. So its sometimes cheaper to get individual parts which range from $30-$130.

[@kylemorrell7138]

I've tried Craigslist and OfferUp and all the part phones on there are blacklisted or iCloud locked and destroyed.

[@eazysmokes3743]

Kyle Morrell I'll sell you parts lol

[@eazysmokes3743]

Kyle Morrell I have a eBay I have all sorts of electronics

I got a question so I got an iPhone 7 Plus and I opened it to see if the damage was the charging port the problem was that the charger over heated and I opened it do you think I still can take it to an apple technical?

[@ixnvincible]

Your videos are so statisfying to watch & also good for learning altough I have a question, is it possible to repair an iphone 4s which keeps on turning off at certain battery precentange like 40%..., etc & shows that I would have to plug it in ? I went to an repair shop and as it seems all they did was screw me over by replacing the motherboard into another shell since it's pretty scratched up + one metal edge where the antenna bands are is kind of loose & could be dangerous since it is pretty sharp, last but not least the powerbutton is loose but useable it seems like the entire phone has been misplaced on the inside but I don't have the tools to open it up & see what is actually going on or attempting to fix it. Do you have any tips or expirience with the battery issue on the latest supported iphone 4s update & if it's possibly fixable because I really don't trust those phone repair shops anymore.

[@paulolpop6086]
