My daughter's friend has a iPhone 7 plus with a totally wasted screen. She was using it for a while then on top of that it died and won't charge. We tried all known working leads but nothing.
I tried a new screen in it for her as a favour but it won't charge. I then got reading and reading there's a very good chance it's a IC TriStar chip at fault.
Has anyone had this ?. One guy is selling repair service eBay. I'm just wondering if to tackle it myself. I've done plenty of small work but nothing this small. I have all the gear and a decent rework. The problem is, her m8's details are in the phone so she said if my daughter who's eyeing it up can get it fixed she can have it cheap otherwise she'll eventually send it off to apple to get it sorted..
Anyone done this repair or can recmmend someone who can. I was going to try get it fixed then stick it away for crimbo....I know, 8 know tight arse old get .... true
Thank you
