miles Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Hi guys, Just wondering if anyone here is good at fixing iphones? I have a dead iPhone 3G at the moment, took it apart and there doesn't seem to be any obvious signs of water damage and the battery seems fine reading 3.7v. Is there a way of working out which part is faulty without actually replacing them?as I would rather not buy parts that aren't needed for instance and if it is the logic board board then I think it's game over. The iPhone does not switch on at all, no apple logo on screen etc, it is not recognised by the computer when plugged in either. I have tried leaving it on charge for a while to see if It comes back to life but no luck yet. Any ideas? By the way this is not my main phone so im trying to repair it mainly for fun.

AndrewOW Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I thought that your thread was titled as a 'spoiler', you were letting us into a big secret that Apple doesn't want us to know. I have no idea about your problem though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I have no idea on what's wrong or how to fix it but I recently had issues with mine and the chap I used (managed to do this over email) was superb. If you want his contact details then let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden1989 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Apple have one of the best customer services in the world, if you take it into a apple store they will probably just give you a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 Thanks for the replies,I think the phone is to old to be g en a free replacement as I think they only do it with phones under 1 year otherwise they offer a replacement for around £130? Just wanted to see if I could fix it myself for fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
