This would defiantly be a baseband issue although the Intel versions don’t usually suffer from this problem unless someone has replaced the audio IC and put too much heat on the board causing solder bridges under the baseband CPU. ZXW has a comprehensive board view for the Intel now. I am not sure what lines you checked but I would start at the baseband PMU and then to the baseband CPU. If nothing rears its head I would replace the baseband PMU if that didn’t resolve it a reball of the baseband CPU would be the only other thing to try.

I haven’t seen this problem in ages. But this is what I would try. 1.       Put the phone in DFU mode and try a restore. 2.       Try restoring with 3uTools. 3.       Disconnect the home button and try to restore.

I would not start messing with the home button housing it will only end in heart ache. I remember seeing some home button stickers that will do what you want they said the fingerprint would still work but I cannot confirm. They come in all the iPhone colours. Sorry I don’t remember where I saw them.

This is an extremely difficult task you are going to try. So you have purchased all the parts from an iCloud unlocked board except for the NAND which you are going to use from the locked board? The IMIE number you say you have will have to be from the parts you are buying right? You will need a NAND programmer. ·         Format the Nand ·         Manually input the IMIE number and serial number ·         Input colour ·         Input region ·         Unbind WIFI Now write that to the nand. After reassembly connect to iTunes and you are done. Good luck.

The IMEI number on the 6s is on the sim tray not on the back housing like the 6. You can buy blank housings with the components installed for about $20 on Aliexpress. I don’t think you will find anyone selling new OEM Apple housings as customs are starting to confiscate parts with an apple logo printed on them. The best thing to do would be to purchase an iCloud locked 6s that has a good housing and swap the logic boards.

I recommend taking your phone back to the repairer. Get them to remove there app and disassemble the phone then assemble it correctly. Ring them and tell them the problems you are having.

All parts are swappable except for the home button. Logic board chips are another story.

If you are talking about the battery connector it is a common problem on the iPhone 8 I usually end up replacing it but for other people who suffer this after a battery replacement you might be able to manipulate the connector on the logic board with a pair of tweezers so as it fits in nice and firm.

This is a common problem with the 7 dock flex. I have just finished replacing one and had the same problem. I ended up connecting the dock flex first than putting the board in and working backwards. Hopefully there is not too much adhesive on yours so you can do the same.

This is becoming a common issue with the JC home button. We are recommending the HX brand. I have been told if you long press the home button the keyboard will appear but I haven’t got a device to try it on.
