Wireless charging appears so convenient and effortless that more and more people are eager to try it and use it in their daily life.\u00a0However, the reality is not always as smooth as expected. You place the iPhone on the charging pad, but nothing happens. In this article, we will share how to fix an iPhone X that is not wirelessly charging.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><strong>1. Motherboard Check<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\">First of all, run a cosmetic inspection of the motherboard. The motherboard is not deformed or water-damaged.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.rewa.tech\/image\/3209d6fc-d614-4013-8e96-d5717912d6a8-Wireless-Charging-No00_00_1020210223-175127-1-e1614132586495.jpg\" alt=\"iPhone X Hauptplatine\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><strong>2. Assemble and Test<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\">In the next place, assemble the phone and test. Press the power button to turn on the phone. The phone turns on normally.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.rewa.tech\/image\/953c3f01-dcc1-4119-bc79-d56f466d01a1-Wireless-Charging-No00_00_2320210223-175140.jpg\" alt=\"Wireless Charging Not Working On iPhone X \" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\">Plug in the charging cable.

Run Diode Mode Measurement of the Wireless Charging Connector<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\">Take apart the phone and take out the motherboard. Remove the dust-proof sponge covering the board first. Then run diode mode measurement of the wireless charging connector. The measured value is normal, which indicates that wireless charging relevant circuits on the bonding pad are normal. We need to move on to wireless charging relevant circuits on the lower layer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.rewa.tech\/image\/2bfcdf89-8eb1-4729-b3ef-2e050085696f-Wireless-Charging-No00_02_0120210223-175451.jpg\" alt=\"Wireless Charging Not Working On iPhone X \" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><strong>4. Motherboard Separation<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\">The first thing we do is to separate the upper layer from the lower layer. Place the motherboard on the <a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.rewa.tech\/detail\/motherboard-disassemble-main-unit-platform-heating-groove-for-motherboard-t12a.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Heizplattform<\/a> and fit a screw into the screw hole on the motherboard.

Lower Layer Inspection<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\">Run a cosmetic inspection of the lower layer. Nothing goes wrong. Run diode mode measurement of capacitors around the wireless charging IC. Judging by the measured value, there is no short-circuited condition. Continue measuring diodes around the wireless charging IC. The measured value is also normal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.rewa.tech\/image\/a50420f7-89e7-4b4a-b726-7262f1cd4039-Wireless-Charging-No00_04_0320210224-101613.jpg\" alt=\"diode mode measurement\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><strong>6.
