How to Fix iPhone 6P Front Camera and Distance Sensor

Got a iPhone 6 Plus from one of our customers, the main fault is that the front camera and distance sensor can't work normally now. Which part get damaged? how can we repair the 2 functions well? Let's check in this article!



According to past experience, these two faults are generally concentrated on the flex cable of the front camera, which may be caused by wire damage. First of all, we need to eliminate the possibility of external components failure, and then consider the motherboard problem.

After removing the screen component and replacing a new one, we are still unable to open the front camera and use the distance sensor.

Disassemble to measure the ground resistance of the front camera seat of J1111 by Fluke digital multimeter, it is found that several pins are infinitely large, and the related inductors are loose when touch with the pen. It seems that the small components are pseudo welded.


Remove the motherboard and observe it under the Trinocular Stereo Microscope, we can see that the touch was repaired before.


The back of the sub touch chip U2402 is the front camera seat J1111, and the small components next to the seat are all black glue. If the temperature of the chip is not mastered, it is likely to blow the small components on the back. After removing the black glue next to the J1111 seat by the QUICK861DW hot air gun, the large area of spot welding and loose components were found.

Next, connect the corresponding inductor and the resistance of the short circuit by checking WUXINJI schematic diagram.


Reinstall to test, the function of the distance sensor returned to normal and the front camera works normal too.

The trouble is that the temperature of screen repair is not well controlled, and the small parts covered with black glue are pseudo welded.

Solution: iPhone X Won't Turn On

According to the customer's description, the iPhone X would not turn on after it drop accidentally. Then the cell phone reports error 56 when restore it. How did this happen? Let's test and repair step by step. Since iPhone X motherboard 2 layers are connected through the middle column, the solder points are very easy to get dropped. so we guess that the solder points from NFC chip to the CPU part have fell off. Disassemble the iPhone X by iPhone opening tools , remove the upper board off the main board, when separate the main board we see there is a row of points have fell off. Check the location map on WUXINJI dongle , it is surrounded by a ground wire, in fact, there are 6 useful points dropped. The ground wire does not need to be filled, the 6 useful points are added by professional phone welding tools. These are the signal wires of the NFC chip, so the iPhone X would report error 56. Then the tin of the middle column is repaired by iPhone X BGA reballing ste...

iPhone 6 Display Failure after Replacing LCD

The iPhone 6 display is black after replacing LCD. After checking, the diode data of display socket is normal and all power supply for iPhone display IC  output is normal. Testing by  DC power supply , we find the iPhone current is abnormal. When press the iPhone power button, the boot current is obviously large. The current reached 100mA when press the power button. After remove the display tube, the current still the same, which means there is a short circuit. Measure the voltage output of each circuit of power supply with Fluke 15B+ Digital Multimeter , then surprised to find that there are really short circuit places. LD010 is short circuit; we suspect that the filter capacitance on the circuit has been penetrated. After remove the iPhone power control IC , we found it is ground short circuit. Open the WUXINJI Dongle  to check the iPhone schematic circuit, we found that this circuit is the display card image transmission MIPI data bus power supply. CPU brea...

Solution: Why iPhone X Voltage Keeps Jumping

After getting the iPhone X motherboard to test, we observe the current value repeatedly jumps between 0mA and 50mA on DC power supply , and it is different from the normal booting current. Next, test whether the power supply of every circuit is normal. PP_VDD_MAIN is measured 4.2V; PP_VDD_BOOST measured is 4.2V. PP1V8-ALWAYS is 1.8V, all the values are normal. But when testing PP1V1_S2, PP0V8_SOC_FIXED_S1, PP1V8_S2 and other circuit voltage that output by power chip U2700 voltage are jumping constantly. According to previous experience, voltage jump is usually caused by a power supply circuit of U2700 output. Measured with digital multimeter , there is no short circuit was found for the dipole value of all power supply to ground. We repaired iPhone 7P before and know that if crystal oscillator is false welding can also cause voltage jumping, And if iPhone CPU  power supply is abnormal also can cause voltage jumping. Check the crystal oscillator we find no problem, then check th...
