Assistive Touch isn't the issue, the home button doesn't allow me to set up the phone after it's been factory reset because the very first thing it asks you to do when you take the phone out of the box is "Press the home button to continue" and that's where the issue lies. I'm asking if there...

I dropped my iPhone 8 in a pool a few years ago and opened it up and dried/cleaned the insides as best as I could after I fished it out. It still turns on but the home button doesn't respond to my taptic touch nor unlock with my fingerprint. So I decided to factory reset the phone and after a...

So I'll have to start off fresh or restore from an ancient backup? What's the damage I'm looking at.. Contacts, music, text history, apps I can deal with. My major concern is having to update and whether my Gevey sim will work on iOS 7 and I might lose all network capabilities. What if I put...

If I go to an apple store, will they be able to bypass it assuming I prove its my phone? The screen says "iPhone is disabled".

A little bit of background info, iPhone 4S on TMobile using a 3GP gevey sim. I dropped it the other day and the digitizer suffered a "stroke", half the screen works and half doesn't. I can't enter my passcode to unlock the phone and managed to disable the phone until my replacement screen...

I bought the Gevey Ultra Sim for the verizon iphone 4s CDMA. I followed the instructions and everything and even restored the phone to original settings to see if that did the trick but it didn't. The phone gives me a message saying it's not activated and in the instructions it says that it...

Hi guys, I'm trying to buy an iPhone 4 and I found a guy off CL who wants to sell it for $50. The screen is cracked and he also mention last minute that it has a bad ESN. If I buy it, what can I do to it to make it useable for phone calls and texts? Will jailbreaking it an unlocking help? It was...

The motherboard is not missing. In fact, it works and is recognized by iTunes when I plug it in via USB. It even asked me to register the iPhone 4 but I just wanted to test it. This shows the motherboard is fine but will it display images on the LCD? We will find out when the new screen gets here...

Since the backlight works, does that mean the LCD works? How come I can't see anything. You are right 100% by telling me I need a new digitizer because the ribbon is gone completely... But how come there is a backlight if the LCD doesn't show anything at all? That's why I'm thinking it needs a...

Awesome. Can we try to figure out if I need a new LCD/Digitizer replacement? I have determined for a fact that it is near impossible to separate an LCD from the digitizer if it's OEM due to the superglue they use to seal them together. If that is the case then it's only $30 for a new front. Plus...

It's an iPhone 4 with 3G sorry :P

It's a 4G. 4S is too expensive at the moment and I want to fix this one. All it needs some TLC and minimal parts but what should I do to fix it.

Anything and everything I need can be found on eBay. I just want to know what parts I need and what's the easiest way of going about it.

Hello forum! I just joined and need help putting an iPhone 4G together. I bought it off a friend for cheap because he didn't know how to put it together. Basically he cracked his screen, tried to fix it, and couldn't put it back together. Symptoms: •Backlight works •Home button works...
