iPhone 11 Pro Max Restoration - Apples trying to stop DIY repair, again.
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ก.ย. 2020
- It seams Apple really doesn't want you to repair your own phone. With the iPhone 11 introducing more paired components than ever before, its time i tried to fix mine which has a badly cracked screen and faulty cameras.
If a manufacture is successfully able to completely lock down 3rd party repairs, what happens after they drop support for the product? Are we supposed to throw it away and buy a new one? I refuse to support that business model and will try anything to stop it from happening.
I will be sticking with my current fruit phone, from Blackberry :)

"what are we supposed to do? just throw it out and buy a new one" - Exactly what Apple wants us to do.
And they say straws are killing the environment
yet they dont want to include a power adapter in the apple watch boxes
They want you to send it to their disassembly robot and fix it using that. They will probably sell it as refurbished
they do this and they also said that they’re helping keep the environment safe
I HATE APPLE
The people need to have the right to repair their phone just like a car. You bought the damn thing you should be able to fix it.
Facts fuck apple “security” measures they put on their phone. Only a stupid fanboy can defend this which is extremely sad af.
But then your data can be accessed by anyone!
-Some Tv ad I found on right to repair
Idk, I just found that from a TV ad on question 1
You can. Some cars also have parts that are coded into the computer, so when you change that out yourself, the computer will know it and display it.
@@thekasperrr mate, don't compare that to iPhone cos car manufacturers don't care if you replace car parts. As long as you buy the car that's all they care.
Please support and vote for “Right to Repair” movements, everyone.
iPhone 12 be like: Error! Adhesive breached!! Self-Destruct Initiated!
How else am I supposed to get the phone gas out?
Idk
Why don’t apple just sell the screens they will still make a profit itherway
repair shops cannot guarantee you that your device will be waterproof again after repair. The manufacturer can.
While apple claiming that removing the charger is environmental move but a dead phone has to be dead and cannot be revived
Note: The battery is also paired on the XS/XSMax/XR models ;)
I wouldn't be surprised if after 5 years all the parts will be paired
Iphone 8 and newer. They are paired to the phone. Yes you can replace the battery. But you lose the health part. And the battery in settings will forever say service. But will charge and work like normal. Then you would have to use 3utools to check battery health when and if you keep the phone long enough to need to replace the battery a second time.
Screws will be paired 🤣🤣
And the new iPhone SE 2nd Generation :-)
G K iPhone 8 battery is not paired. I have replaced many iPhone 8 batteries and even iPhone X with battery health working without programmer. On iPhone Xs before iOS 13.2 is also possible to have battery changed without programmer. Newer iOS has locked iPhone Xs.
Apple: We left out the Charger for less E-Waste
Also Apple: You cant fix our Phones yourself, pls buy a new one!
Yeah, basically.
Wait what
@@galacticgaminghd1859It appears new iphones won't include a power brick, their argument is "you probably already have one", and some e-friendly bs
apple logic 🤦🏽♂️
@@todogenial119 Bruh what happens if that is their first phone. Not everyone has a plug. And they might not have USB ports on the sofa or sockets for plugs (yes some sockets for plugs do have 2 USB ports)
*phone detects heat gun*
*phone automatically starts up
warning message: opening this device may cause the Apple-certified-genuine-factory-air to escape. Repairs should be performed by Apple certified technicians money money. Give us money. Money.
Apple in a nutshell
Don't give them ideas.
Just heat it up some more so it gets too hot and shuts down.
Ah, revenge Naofumi (manga) is currently dealing with the saintess.
Apple: we care about the enviroment!
Also Apple: let’s make the phones unfixable!
fr
That’s not caring about the environment that’s making people spend money instead of taking it to their local mom and pop shops to get fixed
Welcome to capitalism folks
i remember being able to steal the battery from a friends phone when yours was low and switching them in a couple seconds
I miss being able to replace batteries that easy but dropping your phone and having the battery slide across the floor was terrible
That's only if I had the same phone as my friend (which I never did) so I wouldn't remember this lol
@@Connie_TinuityError this is pretty common before because a lot of Nokia models use the same battery
@@hijiritasuzuki6454 samsung phones are backwards compatibe with older batteries, too(to some extent ex.s4 using s3 battery)
I use to steal my brother’s battery CONSTANTLY 😂😂😂
whouldnt be shocked if the adhesive is also paired. Lmao 3k likes it was such a low effort comment
The pentalobe screws are paired to each and every unique iPhone.
Imagine Apple decides to pair the charging connector and if you repair it by yourself the phone won‘t charge anymore ...
Eray Si bro that’s so true, but that would just make all the tech people not want to purchase it
@@MrCharredPasta Don't give them ideas 😂😂
@@xXP120DIGYXx1 They actually are, they are color matched, so if you put rose gold screws in your white iphone, you will see that the screws are dark pink :D
It still pisses me off how apple doesn’t allow anyone to repair their own phones. Shouldn’t that be illegal??
It's heavily disputed in the United States but Apple has a lot of good boy lobbyists that just let it happen
@@weiwu1442 Apple is an american company, they can do whatever they want.. If it was a chinese company though, they would put tariff's on apple products until they do the USA's bidding
Under existing anti-trust legislation, it should be.
To reduce the amount of iphone lost, i guess... in my place, iphone are stealed to sell separate part if it was locked. And third party which mainly repair apple product can buy them which cheaper price for profit. This is what i think, but the "save environment" part is full of bullshit
@@josephstalin364 Text on the warranty card: "Warranty avoid if cover opened" "We take no responsibility if damage occurs during self repairing". There I fixed it. Its that easy.
Saw this video after seeing the iPhone 12 video, it's even worse now, it's shocking.
****so professionally design not to be repaired****
Apple: STONK
Greed baby. And the fans stand strong regardless.
Anticompetitive Behavior
Louis Rossmann, Jessa Jones and others are forming a legit right to repair association to battle apple, they would benefit from your help.
Its a good move, but useless. You just can't defeat a trillion dollar company.
just a small problem, he’s in australia, all of them are in the united states
iSheeps will not let that happen. They'll stay with apple and fight anyone for apple
It was formed years ago
@@hodigaming2933 and?
Apple: bruh what’s the deal? You bought a $1.5k phone, just pay us $499 to get a new screen
Or take care of it so it won’t need a new phone
i mean... how? the screen doesnt even have higher quality than some android phone that cheap to repair. its not even 90hz
@@ajemajh The screen is not that expensive but since they know that no one else can replace it they can charge whatever they want.
@@gamerslust6533 accidents that are out of your control happen bro, and what then? they can charge whatever they want for a repair and simultaneously make it impossible for anyone else to do a full repair of anything
"Certified Apple technician"
Me looking at genius bar: ...Those idiots?
They suck at fixing their own products to be honest
to be honest apple employees only know how to sell their products, and there's prolly just two guys in the back room that looks at stuff that an occasional customer would bring in since younger apple customers only visit the store for upgrades. and well older customers may try to get it fixed in the store to be told to get a replacement/ upgrade
Hell I mean Genius Bar sounds like an insult.
Oi marv look at those guys over at the genius bar. Why are they drinking wine outa paper cups?
he should get a job at genius bar. maybe?...
I'm not surprised if the next macbook has each keyboard key paired.
The thing that I hate about the Apple Silicon transition is the fact that Apple can now replicate this pairing process on Macbooks, iMacs, Mac Pros, etc.
Still americans will line up outside apple store on every apple product release. Its kind of festival.
The code reader/writer is $45. Not a deal breaker
@Barry Manilowa Its entertainment, stop gate keeping it.
@Barry Manilowa I'm watching this because the title seemed interesting. The only phone I'd want more than my current OnePlus 8 Pro is the Xperia 5 ii.

It only enables true tone.
Ermal Turkeshi Yes. That’s why I need one.

When you buy an iPhone, do you really 'own' it? Its as if they sell you an experience with hardware but not the full control of the product.
I think that if you buy a product, you should have full authority to do whatever you want with it. Seems like the ownership rules are being blurred these days.
@@michaelprice3031 Exactly why I like the more customisable OSes...
the end game is, we all lease the devices and pay a monthly fee, and every 3 years it will get replaced
@@ea9849 no it should not be...... That would be like saying only Benz can fix benz, the law has said a Clear NO to that as ofcourse u will get fucked if you have no choice. If your car needs new tires or oil, or a rainwiper we need to buy it of benz? This is why an independent car dealer can buy diagnostic equipment from benz, they Must supply it by law and that is good for consumer or you be fucked
@@ea9849 th-cam.com/video/CNb4Y8qCuhs/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=goonzquad. watch this series.2 persons fix a wrecked Lamborghini
that is a yikes for me with how apple does this, kinda messed up
Its actually a violation of the right to repair act, where the supreme court ruled that you have a right to diy repairs.
You're everywhere
That's why there's such thing as an Android
@@expertsmoneyguide8407 twat
it is very cheeky for them to do that. but from another perspective. a lot of people are making a cheap clone every time they release a new product, which maybe could also be the reason Apple is losing a lot of money.
I just wanted to say thank you because I learned a lot from you, I replaced my iPad screen and many other things from you! Thanks for uploading all of these videos, you deserve more!
Thanks mate, Great to hear!
Hugh Jeffreys :D
Apple: wE cArE AbOUt tHE eNvIRoNmENt!
Also Apple: make devices very difficult to repair, which generates even more ewaste than chargers
Plus removing earpods and charging brick because "wE CaRe ABoUt eWaSTe" yeah right
This is what makes me want to switch away from apple. It's just marketing bs to get you to spend more money. I refuse to get a macbook for this reason also.
Apple "we are so environmentally friendly by removing our power bricks" also apple "our phones are impossible to fix 3rd party and expensive if you want us to fix them"
thanks for the insight, hugh.
I've started my own iphone repair business at my school, and this video really helped me out with the 11 series. You're my inspiration, thanks for giving me a new hobby!
Hugh: **exists**
Apple: *Wait, that’s illegal.*
Why is this underrated
@@SeanDaMan_101 the reason he exists is of course a spike in 🍎 's eyes
I honestly don't care about iPhones, but i always enjoy a great repair video from you :) keep growing and making awesome videos
Your videos are a huge service to the consumer. None of us should take your work for granted, and we should all do our part to share your knowledge with other consumers for the purposes of making informed decisions regarding our purchases. Thank you, friend.
Apples efforts can be summed up with 2 words "Planned obsolescence." :D lol
Wouldn't be surprised if they straight up seal everything in resin one day.
lol that's just about what they did with the original iphone
Rinaldo Acardi it’s so some people don’t scavenger parts and sell the phones with fake parts
Or just have everything soldered to the logic board. Want to replace the cameras? Go buy an SMD rework station!
It's a strange thing, unrepairablity is a great thing in here bcs ppl may steal parts from your phone
Apple: no more DIY repairs
Hugh: Repairing The iphone 11 pro max
Apple: Wait, That is Illegal
Apple: makes a non fixable phone again
Hugh Jeffrys: I'm about to end this mans whole carreer
I'm here because I heard you talking to Charlie Brown this morning & you raised some interesting issues that not many of us would be aware of about Apple's own batteries not being compatible from one iPhone to another and so on. It's a bit of a worry.
I was very impressed so I just subscribed.
Keep up the good work mate. 😊👍
FINALLY ive been waiting for this since the post
Same
Same too
So, a couple hours?
Well, well, well. It seems that Hugh is possibly teasing an upcoming video, a galaxy flip?
I've noticed :)
Thanks to the jcv1 I have been able to repair mine and some of my family´s screens homebuttons and even batteries without loosing functionality. I became aware of the existence of such devices because of this channel. I feel very grateful for this videos and this channel, they are really very informative and helpful.
Apple: "We don't like DIY repairs"
Also Apple: "iphone broken? Do you have apple care? $150."
When fixing this phone Hugh do you agree with Louis Rossman's Right to repair argument ?
I would love to see them both doing a collab and speak about that
I would think so.
I always bring this up to people when they start talking about needing to buy a new phone because X Isnt working as well as it used to.
Then offer to repair it for them
@@LinuxDog yea would be really interesting
Ofc
The Knowledge to Do This 🔥 🤯
Respect !
I enjoy watching these super complicated repairs. This is amazing. I subscribed. 🙂
I work for an AARP, and I got so excited when you brought your little machine. Didn't do what I was hoping, but still a good effort. Late to the party. But accurate and knowledgeable at the least.
You bought the thing and you still don't own it.
You rent it🤣
You own it. Just because you aren't able to just pull on a string and the device magically repairs itself doesn't mean it isn't yours. If I want to replace something on my car I need special tools also - I don't get being upset eg. about some pentalobe screws. Special Screws are nothing new. Companies selling these special tools for cheap aren't either.
It's happening everywhere - Do you buy Blurays anymore? Nah, we stream that. Do you buy software? Nah, you subscribe for a year. Eventually Windows 10 will also be a subscription based OS, mark my words.
@@Null-- if windoes 10 became a subscription based OS, almost everyone will just pirate it
Windows is bloated and slow, weak, vulnerable, and paid. i think people should start using Linux to get the max out of their hardware. only con Linux has is its software availability, which isn't too much of a problem. by using WINE or a virtual machine you could use windows software easily. Linux should be way more popular
But... you're not done. You haven't installed a tempered glass protector.
Hugh i bought mine used a week ago with 87 % battery life and still holds more than a day,love the cameras and the matte back glass finish,the only bad thing is the bottom speaker,sounds muffled and will get it replaced all in all im in love with it :D
I am an iPhone refurbisher too, these messages are annoying, but I inform customers of them straight away and their time scales and locations. Luckily after 4 days it moves to settings and is less annoying, hopefully they won't change this to a longer time on the lock screen. I think it's just put their so customers of local repair shops think bad of the repair shop and think they have done a bad repair or used poor parts. So I would say if you are in the repair business, informing your customers of these messages straight away is key.
#idea - You should repair a phone that was killed by a USB killer
He would have to find one, and it might be easier to kill it himself which I doubt he would want to do
Henry Collins he would do it for his subscribers to see if it’s possible to be repairable
I T yeah I guess
would have to be a full board replacement, so probably not worth it
Genius
I volunteer in an electronics sorting shed for a large thrift store charity. We throw away so many donated iPads and iPhones because they haven’t been unlocked before donating. It’s sad to see.
Jeffrey your the best at what you do!
Really relaxing to watch these videos
good for explain sir
?
Can you fix my phone give your what's app number
What
I agree
😳
Can't wait for Apple to write on their devices "the *device* is property of Apple Inc." as banks state it on their cards.
I subbed man you’ve helped a lot and now I’m super interested in fixing iPhones
"And were done" most satisfying words ever
I kinda hate it when apple keeps pairing more parts to their phones.
Well I guess they just want money, or this is again for security reasons.
And makes me kinda want to switch to Nokia.
There's no security concern with changing parts. Apple just doesn't want money to be made if they don't get a cut from it
I really think Apple cares more about money than their actual customers.
Kevin Bhasi They really don’t give two shits about the customer
@@xalataf3365
I agree. They just pretend to care.
Kevin Bhasi But android companies don’t even pretend to care
Enjoying another amazing video from you, Hugh!
Love from Norway🇳🇴
Great job Hugh !
I love DIY projects
Keep working man
And let Apple keeps showing messages
It doesn't matter when everything works as they should
Perfect! i really love your videos hugh, you inspired me since 2015 :D and now my biggest dream is to become like you or just be noticed by you
keep it up :)
Best of luck!
@@HughJeffreys oh god my dream just came true :D thank you soo so much hugh!
Feels more and more great to have transitioned into Android these days..
Well, samsung nowadays does almost the same. The only good part is that they sell their replace parts, for a lot of money. But still aint apple, eh?
@You Tube There's no ads or bloatware on most android phones. The only phones that have ads and bloatware are the cheap Chinese phones
@You Tube Samsung has a ton of bloatware which is rather annoying, you can't uninstall apps such as Facebook at all, which is 300 ish mb always used up. But the optimisation, I agree with iOS has far superior optimisation, but for people like me who just want a decent phone and none of the hassle, android is better
@@assetaden6662 Samsung better there screens are expensive cause it oled
@@broughy23 lol my premium most expensive Samsung phone is filled with ads especially its default dialer app and music player. I'm not bothered anyways
It is amazing that you can fix this stuff without breaking it

Let’s go! I replaced my iPhone 7 screen
Jasee i only go it because it was a family members, and they lost it in their freezer for a month
Henry Collins so an iPhone 7 was in a freezer for a month 😂
@@Terminal_Apotos lol
Cool!
Techno - TAK yeah
I like how they removed the charger from the box of the iPhone 12 because it's good for the environment and then they make their phones extremely difficult to repair, and when you go to Apple to repair your device they either replace the entire phone or the entire screen even if only a camera isn't working or a home button is dead.
The space gray iPhone 11 Pro is sooo beautiful!
your restoration videos are awesome
apple: we use recyceld tin
also apple:don't do diy repair just throw it in the trashh...
After sale service is business. That's why apple does not allow third party repairers to repair their products.
im not a technician but hooked up with your vids❤️😁
It honestly surprises me that Apple hasn't started simply bricking phones until you get a 'genuine repair'.
Watching this from my iPhone 11 Pro. Quite sad
You are actually everywhere
why are u everywhere? Go make music >:(
yes
watching from a 5s
I felt that, I am watching this from the iPhone 11 u-u
But Hugh how does a finger print get into the phone from apple’s warehouse, don’t they wear gloves the whole process?
@Ellis The DJ Hold up
Someone's been in here
Apple has high standards. China doesn't
Designed in California made in 🇨🇳
LethalCap Beats assembled not made there’s a difference.
Wow! That’s pretty shocking. I did know iPhones were hard to repair, but the 11 Pro Max takes it to another level...
I actually noticed the same thing with my new 16 inch MacBook Pro: I get no verity in ports whatsoever, because I’m stuck with 4 thunderbolt 3 ports. And I don’t even get a dongle in the box with my 2700€ computer! Also, the ram is soldered to the motherboard...
I think this is most annoying about Apple because I love their products and I’m very satisfied with my new laptop, but I hate the fact that their machines are no longer user upgradable. I love your videos because you show the world that we can still get our devices repaired, or even attempt it ourselves. Thanks man! Keep up the good work 💪
I still use a mac pro from 2010 got all the ports and upgradeable componants I could ever need.
If you ask me computers are getting worse.
I have a 2000 powerbook and the keybaord lifts off with two latches so users could add wifi, upgrade the ram and hdd. I believe the processor is also detectable. Beyond that it even has two removable bays on the side so you can swap out modules. You could run two batterys, a floppy drive, a zip drive or a dvd rom drive depending on what 2 you choose, and swap them out whenever.
Now, well we dont even get any ports or an SD card slot. I dont own one of those machines....
Hugh Jeffreys yes, I think you are right. Sadly, this is the direction we are heading right now...
Ive never bought apple products and never will even I can afford them. I was just about to buy the 12 Pro for filming but thanks to your video I changed my mind. I fix my own phones at home better than repair shops and like to keep it that way.

Nowadays apple do this to get a little bit more money from the consumer (buyer) and they don't let us do this easy repairs anymore and the worst thing is you pay 1900 AU$ for the phone indeed and they even want to get an extra money from you like they have no money! But they have money, a lot of money... Your videos are the best Hugh. Greetings from Portugal!
Will using the different camera module affect the quality of the camera? (Since the new module is probably not from apple)
I was wondering that
They took one from a fully functional iPhone 11 and sold it. So it’d be the same.
Geezzz... This would be my 1st and last phone from apple.
Thank you so much for your great video

I really can't imagine a scenario that would lead to someone losing half of their phone's original box besides them destroying it...
well the back of the box might have had a different serial/imei/storage capacity
@@oakman978 So they didn't lose it but rather choose not to send it.
@@imjustjoshin2859 Potentially... they could have lost the original box and just chose to send the top half of a different one since it does not have any identifying information
@@oakman978 But that doesn't answer my question of how they could lose the box in the first place that would lead them to get a completely different box and only half at that to send instead.
All this anti repair and programming serial numbers of parts to the motherboard and if you swap them out yourself lose device functionality is why we don't buy Apple products
