I sincerely thank you, Sir, for the good and pragmatic explanation in the video: It helped me revive my girlfriend's iphone 7 with the very same fault und recover all her data! Especially several GB of holiday pictures are very dear to her and thanks to your video all the pictures are now safe and not a write-off. Thanks again!
For many years, I have learned to trouble shoot electronics in devices and auto chips, but watching a real craftsman at work is so helpful in methods and testing. I so much enjoy your comments and the test methods. Thank you for taking the time to teach me some of your excellent skill. So practical and well done. My regards for a great new year. M.
Do you have a website? I have an iPhone 7 with liquid damage. It’s been in my drawer for two years. I’d love to know if there’s any way to recover my photos and memories. Thanks! Great video!
I discovered this channel after my wife's Galaxy S6 Edge just died. I stoped receiving charge. Took it to a shop thinking it was a dead battery and they said "phone is dead no repair possible!" It doesn't receive any charge, with cable or wireless! If I lived in England I would stop by your shop. I'll try to check if the battery is really dead, because the shop did the hard part, they opened the back!! Very nice channel!
Thanks for a great howto guide. I followed you guide. Found the water damage at exactly the same spot. The same capacitor was gone. I removed it - and the phone works again. Thank you for sharing your experiences and smart diagnosing tips.
Hi my phone 7 display dosent work but the hime button does I went to a service and they said that something is burned and its hard to find what do you think its burned and can you help find it thx
I have water damaged iphone 7 which wont turn on. I have disconnected old battery and connected new one. Once I have connected new one, it started smoking in place where you connect battery. What does that mean? Thanks. Also the new battery is now dead but old on has still 3.8V
My friend lost her iPhone 7 in my local river and 8 thought as a jokes I’ll go back and look for it... I found it and when I plugged it in it vibrated multiple times but didn’t turn on. I took the screen of and let it dry... nothing have happened as 8 am charging it... any advise?
I don't have a bench power supply, could I use say a 9volt battery to look for shorts? Would a shorted component still get hot? I have some multi voltage universal adapters, could I set one of these to 3/4 volts and look for the short with this? Thanks for the vid( I have a water damaged iPhone 7 to look at soon)
How do you do this camera shot? Also, I dropped my Wiko Obama phone in water. It actually sat 2/3 of the way up over night in fresh water. The phone is in someone else's name and is always hooked up. I can't believe I messed this phone up. I need all the data on it. Can I please send it to you and get it fixed?
I don't want to be like you; I want to be you. Humble, funny, wise, pragmatic, generous, supremely talented, and with a beautiful family. You are a man to be admired.
thank you so much sir, my iphone 7 had the same problem after dipped in a water park. but now the phone is alive. thank you so much again . love from India
You said it in your question: "The iPhone 7 is supposed to be [water-resistant] how can this phone be water damaged".....cause it’s water-resistant and not waterproof.

Hello I was trying to make Vidoe under water I put half of my phone like upside down underwater but my lcd is going colorful and my phone won't go on What do I do 😐plz help 😭
I can’t believe I have my own phone water damage no one of repairs shops accepted to repair it in Vienna except one shop and stay in that shop for more than tow months with no benefits Great job Sorin
Lol... dodgy people indeed. Last week I fixed a customer tablet. The charging IC was dead and wouldn't charge, and I fixed it. Next day he come back with the table and the "charger" saying it wasn't charging and demanded a fix under warranty. I checked the charger and he was using a wrong charger (9v) on a (5v) circuit. He said he haven't connected any charger on the device and demanded a warranty repair, and I told him the only way for the IC to damage is if he connected a charger to the tablet, and told him he was using the wrong one. I lost all fate in humanity after seeing jerks like that.
This is a Great Video, But Over the past 20 years, I've purchased more than 25 cell phones and 15 tablets and not a one has ever had any issues. The list goes from Nokia, Blackberry, Toshiba and on. In the last 5 years, I've been with Samsung. But in Jan 2018 I finally decided to give Apple a try and I was pleasantly surprised. I got an iPhone 7 Plus along with an iPad Pro 12.9 and they have worked great together. I use them every day. I keep them as must as possible out of direct sunlight, leaving them in a HOT CAR and always buy a Great case to protect them. (Otter Box). I've watched friends and coworkers treat their cell phones and tablets like a child treat an old toy that they don't want anymore. Also, back in 2014, I picked up an iPad Air 2 for the first time as a main On The Go Tablet and have never looked back. So I must be the lucky one. So far.
i admire your work. you are talented and with lot of experience that I admire too. in my repair shop I always replace the shorted or missing part..i am learning so much from you on not to replace the shorted parts..lol
Hello would love to send you my iPhone 7 light water damage HELP extremely important info on it wasn’t saved how can I get it over to you guys. Thank you 🙏🏻
Best electronic repair videos on youtube IMHO! Simple, just how things are supposed to be according to Einstein! My only issue in that you should post more videos.
As a rookie tech just coming into the game, I find it very annoying when these guys dont sort out the screws on their mats. They just put the screws where ever, knowing that each screw is a different size. During my training, they make a big deal on keeping the screws in the right order, because they are all different sizes.
Hello Sorin as you know I thoroughly enjoy your Vids, now I can see better with your new Blue mat,may I say to who sent it to you THANK YOU and to you also keep up the good work
The reason the phone was water damaged is because there were cracks in the screen and water will seep through the screen. Usually, when a phone gets water damaged, it’s usually the battery that gets shorted and ruined
Thank you for the great work and for the tips. I stopped repairing iPhone and Samsung. Touch ID phones. They came for repair screen and after replacing the screen and swap the button it still not working the Touch ID home button is a replacement and the are blaming me for it. So I closed the shop for 10mnd now. First I have to get new budget to start over again.
Sir please please please make some videos,how to read and diagnose completely understanding schematics diagram for beginner to end with iphone/ipad motherboard... .. like your smile 😃 love ❤️ your Channel thanks
I actully had long time ago an argue with client, Samsung Galaxy J3 dropped to the toilet ( lol ) , so of course water damage thing, won't power on, fixed it and also replaced Digitzer as the customer wanted to, then she started compalin that microphone doesn't work, well it's almost absolute obvious that the Mic can be dead after water damage.
That cap is definitely gone !!!! Sorin i jest yet again! Honestly though i do love your channel. I have learnt so much from you. I have a genuine question for you??? And i know your answer will be, "it's not needed". But why not replace the cap and if not why was it there in the first place?? Perhaps you could explain in a video or maybe when you address capacitors in your electronic's for beginners video's?? I am subscribed and always like and watch all your video's ;)
the manufacter put all the compenent in their place they dont put any component whithout a reason (it is planning and science more that they try to reduce the cost as well as possible ) and this capacitor is there for many reasons it can be for filtring or more stabulise the potentiel because in the phone there are many ics whitch need a very stabulise vcc or whatever for doing their job perfectly and when we ommit this capacitor it will affect the ic or other component by the time and disorders appear for exemple u can see the ic of network how much it is sensible and so other it's sure and sorry for the english
@shay pain i watched all sorin 's video and believe me there is no answer for his question and not sorin only ho say that we can ommit capacitor propably all the technician do that and say that whithout indicating the side effects of that but sure there is many if not tell me whitch video sorin talked about that
