Hi there, Last week I got an iPhone 6 for repair. After closing the phone shuts down immediately. This happens everytime I try this (first closing it will cause it to not even boot). I tried insulating the screen from the mainboard with electrical tape, no result. It’s like the backplate is causing a short. please take note when the phone is like 2mm open, the phone stays on. Does anyone has a guess or experience? And yes I reseated the connections a few tiles, tried another screen, no result. Update 1: have left the phone open for half a week in plane mode, still on. I’m waiting for replacment parts: new home button and backplate flex.
The Tigris and Tristan need to recognize the battery in order to boot, if there is a defect in the battery your issue arises.
Did you try with other LCD? Possibly LCD flex short when flips 360 degrees, and working properly when it’s in straight position.
solved: the new battery was causing the shutdown for still unkown reason(s) The battery connector had a insulator, so no leak-current from there. Anyone a theory how a faulty battery can cause this very, very strange behaviour? I replaced the battery with another new one and everything works fine.
