Glad this answered my issue with the same thing. But original flex and the different screen. Sucks they're calibrating parts like that. Knowing the flex itself has issues all by itself. Edit: They did say that biometric sensors are coming later so lets hope that is for sure the case.
I’ve done ic swap for screen and programmed mt serial and phone works great no issues. Aftermarket anything will throw message for batteries, screens, cameras and such. But thanks for the video. Clears up a bit of info we all wondered about
I have a torn ear speaker flex cable on my iPhone 12 Pro. Do you think an aftermarket flex cable being soldered onto original screen will pass on the new IOS 18?
I have a torn iPhone 12 Pro ear speaker flex cable. Everything is OEM except the new flex cable is after market. I’m going to solder the new cable to the screen and update to IOS18 and see if this works. I’ll keep you posted.
You can try new lcd with any other upper flex, that both have not been paired to recipient board yet. (lcd and flex may be from different devices, not necessary from same donor) Because i actually have reports it's also working.
I AM SO EXCITED TOO! I must say you inspired me when I 1st got into repairs. Now make videos myself so thank you for helping me improve my skills in our field! Game changer for the shop I work at that has no outside support by Apple in the shadows of their changes. I think Apple ID can make this glitchy, so I don't trust the idea until it gets more patches. I also believe this should be regulated by our government in some way by monopolizing the part network. 😀 SUPER THANKS
dot matrix and ir camera is part from the ,,rear system" which includes new mainboard,chasis and all flex cables inside,it is a factory pre configurated for the new mainboard and its not available for pairing to the end user,the only exception is the self repair service and you get a pre configurated part from the factory tied to your old mobo
Right, so this is an infringement on Right to Repair. The true depth camera is a replaceable part, however end users can't install an OEM part. The device function is TIED to a specific part pairing. This is wrong. This is what we need to bring up to the FTC en masse.
Were the iCloud locked/lost mode phones you took the screens from on iOS 18 yet? If not this could explain why they were able to pair with a different phone. Perhaps the parts don’t get locked until the device is updated
Potentially, we will check. I think it's going to be the phone model--i.e. they know that older phones are going to have plentiful parts that are locked but simply discarded and not stolen. Newer phones are more likely to actually be stolen.
Maybe try a newer iPhone? Because it is actually possible that screens from iPhone 12 series doesn’t get serialized, try a phone such as an iPhone 14 Pro with Dynamic Island or even iPhone 13 Pro?
I have a13 pro with an original screen taken from another iphone and the original proximity flex for the 13 pro (i tried but fail to recover true tone using icopy) and it is failing to pair it. I don't have the proximity flex that came with the screen anymore because that repair was done some time ago. Everytime i try it says: unable to configure display because is not a genuine part or may not be functioning correctly. Iam sure the screen is original and it is functioning correctly. I have being using that iphone by the way, so i can tell it works fine
@@AlfredoHernandez-fj1bj Id try with another 13 pro and the prox that goes with that screen. I didn't try 13 pro yet so I can't say for sure that it requires a native prox flex
@@JessaJonesits a bug or glitch in RC update maybe fix thiss in future bcoz on apple website iphone 12 is written in supported devices of repair assistant 😢
@@sharmaxop I think so too. Maybe will have to wait first for the official release of iOS 18 and then maybe wait until everything settles down a little bit. There is always bugs after a new iOS version release, with all this changes i am sure there will be more for this one in particular. Maybe in a couple of weeks truedepth and flood iluminator will be suported.
Does Apple prevent you from pairing a part which was previously paired? Do you need to unpair previously paired parts in order to now pair them to your phone?
I'm curious to see what happens if you install and program a part on another device and then turn on lost mode on the device the parts came from. Will it disable the device it was used to repair? Will the device show a warning message?
For the activation lock someone tested it and if you know there Apple ID log in you can unlock this (this only worked because they had another phone they could brick to test this and it was using their Apple ID though) This probably won’t work when I comes to parts reselling or for parts devices
I see someone else doing a video the OG Lidar Sensor has to be there when replacing the back camera on the newer models. Would be interesting to see if the SE models can have their home buttons swapped.
You should swap two genuine screens between two fully reset not iCloud phones get the parts to pair then add account then trigger activation lock on one to see if it’ll lock the part in the still not setup as the part from the other
I think the reason that the lost/stolen phone parts worked for you was you had just reported your device stolen so apple servers maybe didn’t get enough time to update their database.
Have you checked to see if trutone works on an aftermarket screen after replacing? I’m wondering if we can finally ditch the trutone transfer machines, that rarely work, finally!
Thanks for this video - I think you might have to make a part 2 in like a month, cause it's pretty normal that the earliest versions of iOS are buggy in some way, and I would stand to reason that the inconsistency we are seeing from all these experiments, not just yours but everyone from the FB groups, is probably due to just that... and I hope (and pray) (but expectations aren't high of course) that when 18.1 one is released, that some of these issues get resolved. The sad thing is - this is not a dependable solution yet for repair, and repair shops like myself wouldn't be able to depend on this repair solution. Side note: Thanks for the laughs! At the next repair expo - you should do a stand up comedy bit, lol. Oh and I appreciate your insight on the IC swaps. I've never done one, and never understood why others did them.
At least we are slowly making progress, Is there anything I can do as a Canadian? I know you were saying to file an FTC complaint. but we don't have the FTC here. Who do I complain to?
I haven't watched your whole video yet but in hugh jeffreys latest video about this it only paired when the device the part was taken from was signed out of the apple ID. might be worth you looking into this.
I'd like to suggest a potential hypothetical solution but it would require a software engineer, what you need is a way to FORCE the iPhone to connect to check if it's valid but to redirect it to your own servers that just whitelist everything and report everything is genuine no matter what. Interrupt the process and essentially create a Fake Apple verification server where instead of verifying it just declares everything genuine. Skipping the database check and going STRAIGHT to the step it goes to AFTER it passes the check. This could be done by making it connect through a Proxy but have that proxies dns records configured so trying to connect to Apple's URLS would actually be paired to the IP address of your fake verification server. What you need is a Proxy you control and a DNS server under your control, and to reverse engineer the verification process. You poison the DNS records so that anything that points at a server under apple's control now points to your Fake verification server.
Please try this: Put Phone A's part onto phone B, then run diagnosis on phone B to pair the part, then set phone A to lost mode, and check if phone B is locked as well.
We think the 12 pro just doesn't care about lost or icloud locked at all, but we will certainly try what you suggest once we move to 14 and start seeing the Parts Locked message
@@JessaJones I tested Lost Mode on the iPhone 14 by myself. I have two iPhone 14s. On the first one, I entered my Apple ID and put the phone in Lost Mode. Then, I removed the screen and paired it with the second phone. The configuration was successful with no error messages, and the phone wasn’t blocked. No issues at all. I’ll wait until Apple officially releases iOS 18 and try updating it. We’ll see what happens.
this is what my understanding about this Apple ( after ios18 update ) thing that they will allow uses of original used parts to another iPhone is that the used parts MUST be iCloud unlocked ( OFF / all that has pairing chips ) to be able to pair successfully to the iPhone that you want to use. So no matter if we buy used original pulled parts ( original used parts) from eBay or anyone who sells them. We get 95% will be hit or miss because most of them are from iCloud locked iphone that part out just to sell individual parts. Our repair shop is still not in good standing, and the big A is still the winner 😢
Hi, I have an iPhone 12 with a broken flood illuminator and a non-original screen so the face id doesn't work. If I buy a broken display with its original working flood illuminator flex and I pair it, then I change the flex by putting it on the non-original display, can I have the face id working again? True tone doesn't matter Thanks
Please tell me if I have swapped parts from iCloud locked iphones before iOS 18 will it still work please let me know ? My phone is iPhone 12 please help 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Problem is for third repair shops : If they bought used phones for donor parts and that phone is icloud locked or stolen and that shop sold the screen and battery to a costumer .. until now this wasnt a problem but after iOS 18 they will get the message to finnish repair and many will be asked to enter the donor phones icloud !! They are now screwed for using stolen phones parts!
Those parts will work except for these exceptions to functions: True Tone, battery health (this looks like it will change on iOS18.1) and faceID (aftermarket true depth cam or flood illuminator won’t work because Apple refuses to pair these parts)
@@JessaJonesso if I got an authentic apple front camera from another iPhone 12 it would work? Just can’t be third party to get FaceID to work? Thanks for your vid!
So if I put in a genuine Apple battery will it pair with no issue? *Edit* Nevermind, you just said the bit about phones older than the 12 not working, c'mon Apple!
Hey i have a question my phone Xs had replaced battery from asurion company so when I update to ios 18 and hop to repair battery so that it will be showed battery percentage??
I am getting error as unable to configure, not connecting withnetwork, while clicking on repair and restart option from setting >>about>>parts history How can I pair my display
What happens if you get a used screen put in, and then the donor phpne gets reported lost or stolen? Will it immediately flag it, flag it next time you are in the pairing menu, or never flag it?
If it's an older phone, the answer seems to be "never flag it" Keep in mind the PART WILL STILL WORK JUST THE SAME. The only thing we are talking about with this stuff is the "unable to verify genuine" message. Once the part is paired with the new CPU, it becomes married to the new device. I think the link between that part and the original device is broken---when we return Greg's screen to Greg's device after we paired it with Belinda--it is no longer recognized--the screen is now Belinda's screen.
Anyone successfully swapped screen on iPhone 12? I tried with 3 different iPhones with different methods all wouldn’t calibrate the screens. Battery camera all were fine. I wonder is it only 12 pro’s and above
@@JessaJones Hi Jessa! Yes tried all the methods with 3 different phones. All phones had True Tone and Face ID working tried swapping 3 different display with the original proxy sensor from lcd and with original from phone both methods did not work. It’s a strange one, not sure is it only iPhone 12 that is affected, tried for couple of days. Currently trying to write up a Procedure for work. Everything else is working cameras, batteries etc and other models just not the 12’s
i have an iphone 12mini and the screen is not original not even after market original its a cheap one and when i updated to ios 18.1 beta 5 it is showing the true tone
My lidar sensor stopped working, ip14PM can i save it by replacing my camera module and the lidar sensor, or will portrait mode still be broken? The lidar sensor is a single piece I did a motherboard replacement, and the lidar issue is the only thing i have other than the back glass not accepting wireless charging anymore. I dont use wireless charging anyway Edit, camera module was salvaged from a icloud locked board id assume the original owner didnt remove the lock
I have updated my phone to iOS 18 and when i pressed the “restart and finish repair” button, it says “Unable to Configure” does that mean the part I have is not genuine or something?
@@JessaJones I have a 11 pro max with a screen that I know has been replaced with aftermarket. The phone shows unknown part message but doesn’t give the option to even try and configure it, even though I know it will reject it. I’m about to swap the screen with a genuine apple screen to see if that makes a difference
@@JessaJonesok, so I have swapped screens with a known genuine apple screen and it made no difference. I’m still not even given the option to configure the screen, it’s as if I’m still running IOS 17. ??? What ever it was. So it’s pretty safe to say no parts sharing for Australia ATM😢
As someone that keeps seeing iPhone stolen from music festivals in bulk then sent to china to be parted out. iCloud lock doesn’t stop people so next is to axe the next way
Greg’s phone definitely got wet-that’s how he lost his native flood illuminator to begin with. However there’s no remaining liquid “damage” other than the flood. Remember that we’ve already fixed the logic board and recovered all his data (why his phone is here) and tested FaceID and it worked.
While I understand why they do it I have to say I hate when parts are paired, basically there is no point in buying 'broken' phones for the purpose of repair
Now big A, sees this channel then they will fix the bug and just wait in about 1-2 months, the new ios update will fix this, they will say thank you for letting us know that icloud locked parts still work. Now we will disabled it totally 😅 they're always the winner, they try to shut us all down so no competition! Always greedy
People really thought apple would let you repair iPhones there never gunna let you do it never it’s apples way iPhone 3G to iPhone 5c were the only iPhones ever to not have this issue
hey i had a 15 pro max and one screen was refurbished from china and it did detect that the screen was lost or stolen and i could not proceed any further .
I have the same problem, however im not on 18 yet. im gonna disable all my updates and wait and see, so you are saying you cant press skip and use the Home Screen?
Hi. Yesterday I updated the iPhone 14 Pro Max with iOS 18. Six months ago I replaced the screen without soldering the ic. I had a black screen after the update. I hear the sound but there is no image. The computer also sees the phone. I connected it to iTunes and restored it to factory settings. Still black screen. I opened the phone and disconnected the screen and batterie. Black screen. Maybe I'll try to go back to the previous version of iOS. Do you have any ideas ? Thank in advance for help.
@@JessaJones Phone back to life 😅. First I try flash 17.6 68 error in 25% +\-. Next one I try 17.7 the same error 68. Later I try 17.6.1(21G93) flash go to 81% procent and stuck. It was progress. I make force restart, phone back to recovery. Finally I try soft 17.6.1 exactly the same what I use before update. Flash go to 100% and phone back to life 🙂. Thank you for your message. Regards
And mine can’t recognize a genuine Apple part device , literally swapped the screens between two iPhone 13 mini and one of them isn’t recognizing as a Apple part device 😂😅
I have an iphone 12 mini that has a mismatched screen and flood illuminator, but the flood illuminator and face id module below are both original to the phone Face id works, but I can't pair the display. The repair assistant menu refuses to start, showing the bullshit network error... All of this is a waste of time honestly, Apple should ditch this entire idea because nothing works reliably and it's just a giant headache. But of course they love that, you'll just buy a new iPhone from them, since you're so loyal
Sent my iPhone 15 plus that I purchased from eBay that does not have Bluetooth & WiFi functional to Apple under warranty they sent it back as warranty void cause unauthorized repair attempted, BUT they sent it back as battery unknown. Thank god after fighting with them they refuse to let the battery report. iOS 18 came out once updated it detected genuine battery and repaired it and now reporting. Why do they do this to us? Years and years to show us that their repair Ai system is amazing and can fix things and can do diagnostics. Now Apple let us do diagnostics on our iPhones plus now Apple let you order parts from them and you can repair your own iPhone. Not sure trust Apple with the insane pricing they do
I have been an entrepreneur for the last 15 years repairing electronics. It’s sad to say that Apple is the only brand that monopolizes this industry. I’m literally waiting for a nice alternative to change my phone not to support them.
Another case of malicious compliance from Apple, of course it won't work if you do anything that's even remotely weird... Right now I'm getting face id issue and screen issue on 13pro. proximity flex is the paired to the phone, display and true depth aren't but they're both original My camera and battery are also both original But because of the face id and display errors, I can't pair a single part...
This is entirely wrong; people want that “genuine screen part” message because it’s just satisfies their ego knowing that everything is original like me it will kill me everytime I see that message and I no plans in selling this phone ever.
I have an iphone 15 pro that got wet and face id doesnt work. Can i swap the face id camera / dot projector with a new one that isnt icloud locked and pair it?
I need help i replaced motherboard from a damaged device, always said the same message "Calibration camera" but i can't calibrate the camera because the assistance mode jump this step and said restart iphone, after restart the messages about camera, battery, display and face id comes again

I will not be surprised if Apple save all your unsuccessful attempts somewhere on their server.
Of course they do, that's not even a question so they can keep track of all repair attempts and parts.
Absolutely, if they feel they can use that data, they will. Data is power.
hopefully it could limit "cloning"
That’s kind of silly, of course they do. They also save receipts every time you buy something. Gasp.

Not for the 12 pro. We paired these screens back and forth across these phones many times

I wouldn’t mind if they made stolen phones unable to be used for parts, because that would mean they’re worthless and criminals can’t sell them
What happens when you install a 3rd party replacement part? Such as parts from ifixit or repart or any other after market replacemenf parts?
Those parts will work except for these exceptions to functions: True Tone, battery health (this looks like it will change on iOS18.1) and faceID (aftermarket true depth cam or flood illuminator won’t work because Apple refuses to pair these parts)
@@JessaJonesso if I got an authentic apple front camera from another iPhone 12 it would work? Just can’t be third party to get FaceID to work?
Thanks for your vid!
So if I put in a genuine Apple battery will it pair with no issue?
*Edit* Nevermind, you just said the bit about phones older than the 12 not working, c'mon Apple!
In an iPhone 12 is the earpiece flex tied to the screen or board?
No, just the Face ID parts
New iOS update new algorithm and new headache
Appel need swiping true drpthcamera support
What if i took a screen from a locked 13 pro max and put it into my broken device them updated to ios 18 what will happen
Same doubt
@@harshithkaduluri4354 i have updated my iphone nothing happend and i calibrated the screen normaly and true tone is back
Hey i have a question my phone Xs had replaced battery from asurion company so when I update to ios 18 and hop to repair battery so that it will be showed battery percentage??
I am getting error as unable to configure, not connecting withnetwork, while clicking on repair and restart option from setting >>about>>parts history
How can I pair my display
What happens if you get a used screen put in, and then the donor phpne gets reported lost or stolen? Will it immediately flag it, flag it next time you are in the pairing menu, or never flag it?
If it's an older phone, the answer seems to be "never flag it" Keep in mind the PART WILL STILL WORK JUST THE SAME. The only thing we are talking about with this stuff is the "unable to verify genuine" message.
Once the part is paired with the new CPU, it becomes married to the new device. I think the link between that part and the original device is broken---when we return Greg's screen to Greg's device after we paired it with Belinda--it is no longer recognized--the screen is now Belinda's screen.
Thanks!
i have a 13 pro max and it will not even restart just says it carnt connect to server
When it says that it may be that the server is down or overloaded. I’d keep trying until it says can’t configure
@@JessaJonesi have the same problem
On my 13 pro max am using orignal display pulled from the icloud phone . Can i update my phone from ios17 or ios18? It is safe or not ?
It is safe I tried but on fake display it went black
u did it? i have the same problem
Anyone successfully swapped screen on iPhone 12? I tried with 3 different iPhones with different methods all wouldn’t calibrate the screens. Battery camera all were fine. I wonder is it only 12 pro’s and above
Did you have the matched flood illuminator/proxy flex that goes with the screen?
@@JessaJones Hi Jessa! Yes tried all the methods with 3 different phones. All phones had True Tone and Face ID working tried swapping 3 different display with the original proxy sensor from lcd and with original from phone both methods did not work. It’s a strange one, not sure is it only iPhone 12 that is affected, tried for couple of days. Currently trying to write up a
Procedure for work. Everything else is working cameras, batteries etc and other models just not the 12’s
i have an iphone 12mini and the screen is not original not even after market original its a cheap one and when i updated to ios 18.1 beta 5 it is showing the true tone
My lidar sensor stopped working, ip14PM can i save it by replacing my camera module and the lidar sensor, or will portrait mode still be broken? The lidar sensor is a single piece I did a motherboard replacement, and the lidar issue is the only thing i have other than the back glass not accepting wireless charging anymore. I dont use wireless charging anyway Edit, camera module was salvaged from a icloud locked board id assume the original owner didnt remove the lock
I have updated my phone to iOS 18 and when i pressed the “restart and finish repair” button, it says “Unable to Configure” does that mean the part I have is not genuine or something?
Not necessarily. What part is it?
@@JessaJones the display
What phone? And is the display matched to the proximity sensor?
@@JessaJones its an iPhone 13 Pro Max and if I recall correctly, only the display is the one that got replaced, the proximity sensor was unchanged
@GotTimeGaming they have to be matched as a set in the 12 pro, and reports say also in the 13 series which we are verifying this week
After market screen have original Touch ic
This is what we call a "Task Failed Successfully." Apple clearly has a lot of bugs to iron out :)
what about XS battery change?
You can change the battery but not pair an OEM battery. It will not have battery health
Thanks i see SE2020 the same not pairing options
Just tried this here in Australia and there is no change😢 it doesn’t look like we get the option of doing this down here with IOS 18😢
Tell me what you tried exactly, model, part ??
@@JessaJones I have a 11 pro max with a screen that I know has been replaced with aftermarket. The phone shows unknown part message but doesn’t give the option to even try and configure it, even though I know it will reject it. I’m about to swap the screen with a genuine apple screen to see if that makes a difference
@@lukeparkes3159parts pairing is iPhone 12 and up sadly
@@JessaJonesok, so I have swapped screens with a known genuine apple screen and it made no difference. I’m still not even given the option to configure the screen, it’s as if I’m still running IOS 17. ??? What ever it was. So it’s pretty safe to say no parts sharing for Australia ATM😢
It’s iPhone 12 and up. Doesn’t work with iPhone 11 Pro unfortunately

As someone that keeps seeing iPhone stolen from music festivals in bulk then sent to china to be parted out. iCloud lock doesn’t stop people so next is to axe the next way
Does it work on iPhone 11 Pro Max pairing?
Sadly no
12 and newer
Anyone else notice that in the TrueDepth camera experiment (#3), Greg's phone was liquid damaged??
Greg’s phone definitely got wet-that’s how he lost his native flood illuminator to begin with. However there’s no remaining liquid “damage” other than the flood. Remember that we’ve already fixed the logic board and recovered all his data (why his phone is here) and tested FaceID and it worked.
While I understand why they do it I have to say I hate when parts are paired, basically there is no point in buying 'broken' phones for the purpose of repair
Now big A, sees this channel then they will fix the bug and just wait in about 1-2 months, the new ios update will fix this, they will say thank you for letting us know that icloud locked parts still work. Now we will disabled it totally 😅 they're always the winner, they try to shut us all down so no competition! Always greedy
A new screen with the original flood won’t work, that’s bad
People really thought apple would let you repair iPhones there never gunna let you do it never it’s apples way iPhone 3G to iPhone 5c were the only iPhones ever to not have this issue
hey i had a 15 pro max and one screen was refurbished from china and it did detect that the screen was lost or stolen and i could not proceed any further .
I have the same problem, however im not on 18 yet. im gonna disable all my updates and wait and see, so you are saying you cant press skip and use the Home Screen?
you can't skip it?
Hi. Yesterday I updated the iPhone 14 Pro Max with iOS 18. Six months ago I replaced the screen without soldering the ic. I had a black screen after the update. I hear the sound but there is no image. The computer also sees the phone. I connected it to iTunes and restored it to factory settings. Still black screen. I opened the phone and disconnected the screen and batterie. Black screen. Maybe I'll try to go back to the previous version of iOS. Do you have any ideas ? Thank in advance for help.
That is weird and I haven’t heard anything like that. Roll back to 17 in 3utools and let us know what happened? Is it an aftermarket or OEM screen?
@@JessaJones Hi. Thank you for reply. It was a new screen. The phone worked without a problem until the update was made.
@@JessaJones I try today roll back to 17. I let you know. Thank you
@@JessaJones Phone back to life 😅. First I try flash 17.6 68 error in 25% +\-. Next one I try 17.7 the same error 68. Later I try 17.6.1(21G93) flash go to 81% procent and stuck. It was progress. I make force restart, phone back to recovery. Finally I try soft 17.6.1 exactly the same what I use before update. Flash go to 100% and phone back to life 🙂. Thank you for your message. Regards
I’ve always wanted the parts to be paired to me… Not Apple.
Me realizing I won't be able to fix my 11 pro max with face id (dot projector) issues that has a soft oled and sitting in a drawer. 😂
It’s just a marketing skim..apple wants you to buy parts from them or upgrade your phone!
And mine can’t recognize a genuine Apple part device , literally swapped the screens between two iPhone 13 mini and one of them isn’t recognizing as a Apple part device 😂😅
Wow. Are you in the US? Does it say unknown part?
I wouldn’t mind if they made it so you couldn’t use stolen parts because criminals would have no reason to steal them since they would be worthless
With this locked parts thing Apple should have stolen iPhone coverage now too
Does it work on xr
No, iPhone 12 and later
I have an iphone 12 mini that has a mismatched screen and flood illuminator, but the flood illuminator and face id module below are both original to the phone
Face id works, but I can't pair the display. The repair assistant menu refuses to start, showing the bullshit network error...
All of this is a waste of time honestly, Apple should ditch this entire idea because nothing works reliably and it's just a giant headache. But of course they love that, you'll just buy a new iPhone from them, since you're so loyal
Why ofc. They won’t do anything until they get forced to . And they rlly be pushing the limits to what they can pull off
Sent my iPhone 15 plus that I purchased from eBay that does not have Bluetooth & WiFi functional to Apple under warranty they sent it back as warranty void cause unauthorized repair attempted, BUT they sent it back as battery unknown. Thank god after fighting with them they refuse to let the battery report. iOS 18 came out once updated it detected genuine battery and repaired it and now reporting. Why do they do this to us? Years and years to show us that their repair Ai system is amazing and can fix things and can do diagnostics. Now Apple let us do diagnostics on our iPhones plus now Apple let you order parts from them and you can repair your own iPhone. Not sure trust Apple with the insane pricing they do
I have been an entrepreneur for the last 15 years repairing electronics. It’s sad to say that Apple is the only brand that monopolizes this industry. I’m literally waiting for a nice alternative to change my phone not to support them.
What’s worse about all that is explaining it to customers 10-15 times a day.
Another case of malicious compliance from Apple, of course it won't work if you do anything that's even remotely weird...
Right now I'm getting face id issue and screen issue on 13pro. proximity flex is the paired to the phone, display and true depth aren't but they're both original
My camera and battery are also both original
But because of the face id and display errors, I can't pair a single part...
This is entirely wrong; people want that “genuine screen part” message because it’s just satisfies their ego knowing that everything is original like me it will kill me everytime I see that message and I no plans in selling this phone ever.
I was able to pair parts from a Chimaera Mode iPhone (it's mine. I was dumb.) and it worked. No errors.
I'm still have issues with a 13PM.
What issues?
Looks like the wifi connection is used to ask apple if thee part is bought from them. If not, deny
Shame on apple
I have an iphone 15 pro that got wet and face id doesnt work. Can i swap the face id camera / dot projector with a new one that isnt icloud locked and pair it?
