iPhone 7 Plus Shows iTunes Error 56—How to fix?

The iPhone 7 Plus accidentally fell into water while in the normal use, even we pick it up and dry it quickly, it still has many problems, such as iTunes error 56.

When we connect iPhone 7 Plus to computer with iPhone lightning cable, and the opne the iTunes on PC, we are going to flash iPhone by iTunes.  It started smoothly, but when the flash process bar runs
to two-thirds, it stop runs and the iTunes reports unknown error 56.

As we know, iTunes error 56 mostly is caused by iPhone baseband circuit and NFC. Now, we need to find out the reason, and then we can fix it.

Use phone opening tools to disassemble the iPhone,  take out the iPhone motherboard to check , no obvious scar.

Measure the iPhone baseband circuit part, no problems was found. Now, put iPhone motherboard under the Phone Repair 7-45X Trinocular Stereo Microscope to observe, finding that the NFCSW_RF power supply tube is seriously corroded.

Carefully handle the eroded pin well, and then solder it well by PPD 861D Plus hot air rework station. 

Assemble the iPhone, and use iTunes flash it again, it works good, and final get into IOS.

Repair iPhone 7 Plus issues: no service, black screen, unknown error 56

Today, we will share a repair guide for iPhone 7 Plus issues, this iPhone is severely corroded by water, it cause many problems, such as black screen, no service, unknown error 56 and so on. We need to fix it step by step, please be more patient on it!

Rip off the motherboard sticker that can be ripped, and remove the iPhone PCB shield cover that can be removed. According observe, we find the most serious is the display backlight part. Now we can clean the iPhone motherboard first, and then measuring power supply C3405 with multimeter, it directly to the ground, careful observation under the microscope found that C3722 was severely corroded. After removal, the diode data of the main power supply becomes 298. At this time, connect it to power and phone standby leakage 30mA, press the iPhone power button, the iPhone screen is lit, but the left screen is dark. Leave it alone, enter the IOS, and insert the SIM card to test, we find there is no 3G、4G， the fingerprint is normal. It not only stuck on fingerprint setting, but also the restore network, restore all settings. Observing it under the microscope, we found that FL3901 corrosion seriously caused the left iPhone backlight IC cannot supply power. After soldering jump wire, it's back to normal.

Then found R7109 corrosion damage caused the power supply to high-frequency power amplifier circuit impassability, resulting in no 3G and 4G.  After soldering jump wire with rework station, it's back to normal.

Now we're going to solve the problem that stuck on iPhone. We want to backup first and then brush iPhone, then we found it can connect to PC, but when you connect to iTunes, it times out, dis U2 cause it? So we replace it with iPhone 6S U2 IC, but the problem still exists. So now we directly use DFU mode to forced brush iPhone.

However, when the progress bar shows 60%, it reports unknown error 56, re-flash several times, it still the same, the unknown error 56 most caused by NFC. iPhone Baseband CPU、camera power supply could also cause the problem, but these function all is normal, so we judged NFC. Observing NFC under the microscope, we found that it had a little corrosion.

Remove the NFC, and measure the diode data of NFC, we found the G2, D5 and C7 all is connect to ground. From the phone circuit diagram, these three points are connected to the NFBST_RF, as shown in picture 10-2-2, we directly remove it, G2 still short circuit. After remove the C7517, the resistance is normal; D5 and C7 also back to normal. Replace the chips on motherboard, and weld well, flash it again, it still reports unknown error 56. Water-damaged motherboard power supply is the easiest to burn, so we remove shield cover of iPhone CPU.

It can be seen from the phone schematic diagram, there is a group of power supply PP_VDD_MAIN_NFC converted by NFCSW_RF which from main power supply, so we can weld the jump wire from the A1 pin to the A2 pin.

Finally, once again brush iPhone, you can enter the IOS system now! Test the functions, all is fine, the repairs end!

What cause iPhone 7/7 Plus reports iTunes error 4013?

We can always hear that iPhone reports iTunes error 4013. This issue is common to the iPhone 6S to iPhone 7 Plus. Today we are going to talk about the iPhone 7/7P stuck on white Apple and then restart; when we use iTunes to flash it, it reports unknow error 4013. What cause this porblem? Vip Pro Shop Team analysis is as follows

Flash iPhone with iTunes and then it reports unknown error 4013 common fault is usually caused by iPhone baseband CPU and 19.2 crystal oscillator.

To find out if the baseband caused the problem, you can replace the new iPhone baseband CPU, and the brush it again, see if iTunes will reports unknown error -1. If it does report an unknown error -1, this indicates that the original baseband damage caused that problem.

To determine whether it is a 19.2M problem, you can directly replace the new 19.2 crystal oscillator, and then use iTunes to brush it again.

Also, if the baseband power supply was damaged, the iPhone will show same issue.
