Just a couple things....first, wish I'd have plugged in the new port before replacing it as a different video suggested. Mine was defective so I had to do it all over. Just flip up the screen, remove the cover over the charging port connection and swap the connection and verify that the new port works. Second, it's CRITICAL that you stick the port down in the correct spot, as said below, as if you don't it won't line up with the mother board and you'll have to pull it all apart to readjust the stuck down portion of the new part. Just things that would have saved me a lot of trouble and time. thanks for the video!
Probably one of the best iPhone repair videos I've seen. I've checked a couple of your other how-to vids and they're just as good. Very thorough and thoughtfully produced. Thanks for putting the time and effort in on these. They're a huge help!
Smart Easy DIY a pleasure dude, I am going to tackle the replacement myself today! I guess I am a little nervous but excited too! I am planning on using this guide :)
Thanks for the video. Really helpful how detailed it is. The only place I got stuck was with how the WiFi cables get unclipped from the side of the speaker. I didn't realize they just come straight out of the side. Unfortunately my new port got me stuck in the reboot loop, so I couldn't fix my problem. But thank you!
Hi, Apple Pay isn’t working for me after this repair. It says “hold near reader” but nothing works. Where is the connection for this? Thank you, awesome video! Very easy to follow
Thank you man. There's a few videos out there on the same thing but this one goes at just the right pace for me given that this is the first time taking apart an iPhone for me. And of course the part I need to replace is literally blocked by everything in the whole damn phone lol .
great video - the one before this she has you take apart the entire phone and then says goodbye - he saved my phone by showing step by step how to put the phone back together - and I ended up with only 1 extra screw! which I could not find until after I had closed it back up. Tnaks for taking the time to make this.
This video is very good and instructional, thank you for making and sharing this! Did you heat up the iphone a bit before removing the seals initially?
@@SmartEasyDIYer still we don't know the answer. Btw thank you so much! Do I have to pay attention on ALL screws heigth? Or it's only the inizial chassis matter? Thank you, god of phone repairing
Yes it could. If you replace the waterproof adhesive it should be ok again. It’s not as perfect as factory but it should be ok if you place it carefully. It wasn’t available when I made the video but I do talk about it in the video. Thanks
disconnect the old one from where it connects to the motherboard, and disconnect the antenna thats from the charger port. then just connect the new one kinda in there where you disconnected it and it plug it in.
I accidentally broke the two cables connected to the screen the lower ones not the one attach to the camera. What are they called and can they be replaced???
I have an iPhone 7 plus. If it's not charging and not getting recognized on the pc, do you think it's damaged? It charges sometimes, I just have to connect the lightning usb in the port on a weird way, like pushing up a little bit. I'm guessing the lightning port is fucked up, or could be the lightning usb? When I connect my iPhone to my pc, it says that the device couldn't be recognized, like it detects it but it doesn't get recognized at all. I'm totally out of ideas, the first time that this happened I tried cleaning the lightning port with a toothpick and suddenly it worked perfectly, but then I tried to charge it again and it didn't charge... So I tried cleaning the lightning port again and it didn't work this time. It just worked randomly when I connected it again.
+Sunbae Kcalb have you tried a different lightning cable just to make sure it's not that? If not I would say the charging port connection it's going bad and needs to be replaced.
Is there A trick to getting the cables back in? I am having A very difficult time with that, and seem to be putting A lot of wear on them trying over and over. I should have it completed pretty soon after the cables go in. Great video, Dude!
@@SmartEasyDIYer Thank you. I got the cables back in but failed to get it back together. The new component would not line up well with the longer cable to the Motherboard, so I through in the towel. I wonder if the component was generic, because the holes for the screws lined up right, it just would not recess to the bottom of the phone enough to line up that one cable, but just bareley. I wonder if anyone else has had this issue. Thanks for your response.
Did it all but the last thing that kept happening the ribbon on top the power ribbon keeps popping off. unsure if theirs away to glue it down with damaging it
Hi, I've just done the replacement and my iPhone shows apple logo and won't boot up. Think this i called boot loop. How can I fix this as my iTunes won't connect to it and I can't sync because I have to register new device log ins via my phone! Any advice how/who can boot this up for me or if it's something I haven't connected properly inside?
Hi. I’m sorry you’re having these issues. I’m thinking that either you got a faulty part or something isn’t reconnected correctly. The only thing I know to do to make sure is to take it all apart and carefully reconnect all the connections as you reassemble. Sometimes that’s all it takes as something isn’t quite reconnected properly even though it looks like it is. If it still doesn’t work I would suspect a faulty new part and exchange or replace it.
What do you do if one of the pieces wont connect. Everything worked perfectly until the end when I had to connect everything back together. It's the piece above the battery please help I been working on this for 4 hours
Hey! So my iPhone 7 had a housing replacement, and I used my old lightning flex cable, and now when I connect it, the phone won’t boot. So I disconnected it and the phone booted up straight away. I’ve bought another 7 for parts to just switch the motherboard around so hopefully that should solve my problem😭
Smart Easy DIY Hey again! I’m having some trouble with my home button. So I replaced the screen with a genuine used Apple screen. And my home button will not work. So I plugged my old screen in again, and my home button was working. What do I do?
Hey! I'm just getting into repairing iPhones and actually repaired my first one today. I repaired shattered glass and lcd on my iPhone 5c and loved doing it. I want to do more, but my question is; how do I get practice phones, I don't want to risk messing up someone else's phone, and I need to build rep. Thanks!
+Wil Toler Nice job!! You could always get broken ones on eBay to practice on. If you buy them right you may be able to resell them on there as good working phones. Just watch out to avoid potential water damage phones and iCloud locked ones especially.
Ok so I have this problem with my iPhone 7 Plus , it charges perfectly fine BUT the 2 microphones next to the charging port won’t work AND the phone doesn’t recognize the iPhone earbuds But the other microphone at the back of the iPhone works perfectly fine , Siri can hear me , I can hear myself when recording videos BUT people can’t hear me when in a call because of the microphone also the speaker button works too If I replace the charging port will this fix my problem?
Hi! I have replaced the charging port (I was having problems with microphone and I thought the problem was with this part) and then the Iphone 7 would not charge. I thought the replacement is broken so I put up again the original one and still didn't work. Then I bought another charging port (after 2 weeks aprox) and after installing the phone it is still not charging. Does anyone know what the problem could be? Thanks!
I have replace the charging port lighting and the battery, the phone turns on because of the new battery but is not charging neither recognizing the cord when I plug it in, it gets hot while charging what did I do wrong?
Thanks for the excellent video! I was about to order your suggested $28 toolkit when I saw this review. Can you verify that this is the case? "NOT for iPhone 7 repair!! There is NO Y000 Tri-Wing Bit as Advertised Precision Screwdriver Set - 35 Bit Tool Kit & 9 Tools for iPhone, Samsung, Computer Repair If you are trying to repair an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7plus digitizer or screen DO NOT buy this kit.

Nice Love the speed your going you can easily repair while watching. My brother just f** his port & If apple doesn't replace this today then Im going to be forced to do this. Thanks for the vid.

hey bro i had bought 2 cheap charging cables for my iphone 7 plus as original was broken. My phone was not getting charged yest from the new one's and then i tried to do it with my brothers original cable and after numerous attemps i got the device on. now after that battery was lost now the phone is not charging nor it is going into any mode. I had shown it to the apple service center they said the device is not working and they said it has become dead. I dont know why and how it has happned or is it really dead or is there a problem with the charging port. Now it's not starting up and i have not dropped it and it doesnt even have any water or damage issue. I think because of the cheap wires my charging port would've stopped working somehow so should i check it locally or try to change the charging port in some local repair shop as the apple center people said nothing can be done from their side and they can only replace a new phone with hald price. I still have a little hope left cause nothing happned to my phone and it got switched off and stopped charging. please help bro
I followed all your steps and when I was done it just showed the apple screen. So I took it apart again and re did it and it's still showing the apple screen. Do you know what could be causing it so I can fix it asap.
Kristian Vasquez you might have broken one of the connectors make sure they are still attached to the lcd... believe me I broke it and didn’t even realize, my phone was stuck on apple logo for weeks
Lmao just did this and its a R.I.P 🙃 time for a new 1 ig. Nice tutorial though, fuck up was my bad tbh, charger port didnt fit right anyway, probably got sent the wrong one but oh well
I’m not sure why I didn’t show it. Usually just to keep a already long video as short as I can I try to trim out certain parts that aren’t directly related to replacement. It’s a good for future though. Thanks. Mine didn’t have any issues.
Whats the reason for the boot loop because I am now on my second charging port and getting boot loops. First charging port was brand new but boot loop... second charging port the microphone was not clear and the third charging port I got boot loops again. Whats going on?
I hate how apple make you disassemble and reassemble the entire phone just to change the charging port. Doesn't make it a quick job like in the 6s and earlier >:(
@@SmartEasyDIYer Do you think I can do it? I have replaced loads of parts but I have never actually removed and reinstalled the logic board. Do you think I'd be okay bearing in mind that I can do screens and all their parts, batteries, charging ports and headphone jacks and microphones and power buttons, etc on older models?
I think the biggest thing is to go slow and step by step. Make sure to keep your screws in order and where you don’t lose them or mix them up. That’s one of the biggest things with a long repair.
@@SmartEasyDIYer Thanks! I'm most nervous about the antenna wires to be honest as I removed one in a 6s and after that they just would not go back into the hole! Thanks for your advice though!

You need to take the screen off?

I'm having a charging issue with my iPhone 7, the iCare guys said that they have to replace the entire mother board!!!.
I’d try replacing this part first. Much cheaper.
The repair dude said was gonna cost like 250$ to repair the dead port. I bet I can do it my self for like 50$ lmao
Yes hopefully even cheaper. Good luck!
This brand is garbage but hard to convince my brainwashed wife. Thank you so much.
Lol we’ve had good luck with them overall but I don’t think I could convince my wife to switch either.
Mate you rush putting back together 😡
I figured you could pause it and do the step and then move on. Otherwise it makes for a long video which makes people complain even more. 🤷🏻♂️
Nice video, but please whiteballance your videos!
+Mxchaaa Thanks
