Hey All, Did a housing and screen replacement and now stuck in a bootloop, if i put the phone into recovery mode im able to restore the firmware successfully but then when it restarts it goes straight back to bootlooping. ive tried disconnecting the front flex with the sensor also reseating all the flex cables but still bootloops, any suggestions as to what parts i should try reordering/replacing thanks in advanced.
Did you transfer over all of the flexes or were they pre-installed in the replacement housing? Either way, you have a ton of variables here and you will need to isolate things one by one. I would start by connecting the screen (just the screen, no FCAM), Lightning Port (from the original housing as it was a known-good part) and battery and then connect to an iTunes enabled computer. Does it boot properly and remain stable, if so, then add flexes one at a time until the phone fails. If not, then try another charge port or remove the screen to see if it stabilizes. Take notes along the way as this could get confusing. This will help you determine if this is logic board related or simply a bad flex.
