If you’re having any of the following problems with your iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 plus, it may be down to audio IC disease:-

• One or more of these audio-related problems:-
  • Audio is being dropped at your end on a voice call
  • Person at other end of a voice call can’t hear you, or just gets static
  • Grayed-out/Greyed-out voice memos
  • Greyed out loudspeaker
  • Siri doesn’t respond, as it can’t hear you
• Boot time much longer than usual (around three to five minutes)
• iTunes detects the iPhone, but its screen stays stuck on Apple logo
• Haptic feedback on the phone button works, but (again) screen is stuck at Apple logo stage
• Response after inputting the pass code is laggy

You can see our YouTube channel “xFix Repairs UK” for examples of me carrying out this repair for complete peace of mind.

The “U2 – Tristar Charging/USB logic IC chip” This chip is easily burned out due to unprotected voltage fluctuations common to use of non-Apple chargers (especially car chargers). This is a common fault and is widespread, we will see devices that show one or more of these symptoms:

If you have one of following issues, this repair is for you:

• Not charging(Even though it may show it is), not recognizing connected cable, “fake charging” where it will show connected cable but won’t charge.
• Fast draining battery, even with brand new one.
• This accessory is not compatible message pop up.
•  iPhone booting up automatically when connecting the battery.
• Not going above 1-5% battery.
• If you have tried a new battery & charging port but still does not charge.

The post iPhone 6s/ 6s Plus Backlight Repair appeared first on xFix.

The most common reason we hear is that the PS4 has been dropped or knocked while plugged in. This causes the HDMI cable to yank out and physically damage the port. It can also happen while plugging in the cable. The ports are quite delicate so if the HDMI cable isn’t plugged in carefully to the PS4 it can cause damage.

If the port doesn’t look damaged, there is another part of the motherboard that could have failed. Click Here to view the PS4 HDMI Controller IC Chip Replacement

How do we repair the PS4?

To repair this fault we need to carefully strip the console down to the motherboard. From there we desolder the old HDMI port. The port is attached by 4 main holding legs that are through-hole soldered and the HDMI data pins are surface mounted so it is a delicate job. Once the old port is removed, the solder pads of the logic board are inspected for damage. If the original port is really badly yanked, this can cause damage to the motherboard and in some circumstances could be beyond repair (although that is very rarely the case).

Once we have cleaned up the board and prepped the solder pads for the new port, we solder the new HDMI port to the PS4. We reassemble the console and it goes down to our testing bench where all consoles are tested for at least 4 hours.

What does this service include?

• Board level HDMI port replacement repair
• 2-month Warranty on this repair

What doesn’t this include?

• Shipping to us
• Any other Repairs or Parts
• Return Shipping
