Generally speaking, the normal booting process of iPhone goes like this. Power key goes first, then the Apple logo appears between ten and twenty seconds. After the Apple logo appears, the iPhone will boot back up normally. Recently, some clients complained about the iPhone won’t turn on issue after holding the power key – no Apple logo, just black screen.
It is possible to find different causes and to find different solutions. In this blog, REWA offers a logic board repair solution regarding the iPhone 6/6S won’t turn on issue. Please feel free to leave a comment below if you have a different opinion.
iPhone 6 Won’t Turn On Brief IntroductionThe iPhone 6 won’t turn on normally after holding the power key. Run detection process and we find that the logic board comes with leak current as 900mA and the PMIC is over-heated. Whereas capacitance around the PMIC shows no short-circuit. Therefore we can draw the conclusion that the PMIC is damaged and need to be replaced with a new one.
Diagnosing
Power key power up, the phone cannot boot normally
Connect the phone with the DC power supply, the booting current jumps to 900mA, which is an abnormal value.
Take out the logic board and connect the logic board with the DC power supply. The logic board displays with leak current as 900mA.
Dip some rosin with soldering iron to smoke the logic board power IC and components around. After that, connect the logic board with the DC power supply. The rosin starts to melt quickly, which indicate that the power IC is being over-heated.
Test
capacitance around power IC – No short-circuit. We can draw the conclusion that power IC is leaking away electricity.
Notes
Remove 6s power IC with hot air gun can be a real risk, that’s why we recommend CNC chip grinding machine here.
Grinding
Put the iPhone 6s logic board on the corresponding iPhone 6s mold and set grinding program.
Click and clear numerical value of x-axis and y-axis. Move the milling cutter of the grinding machine to the corresponding power IC grinding area. Adjust the numerical value of z-axis and move the milling cutter until it touches the surface of power IC. Then clear numerical value of z-axis.
Start grinding. Once the bonding pad coming out evenly, the grinding process is finished.
Take out the logic board and use a sculpture knife to clear up black adhesive residue.
Reballing
Since tins of the new power IC come with a high melting point, we need to clean the tins with soldering iron at first.
Then reball the power IC with BGA reballing stencil.
Soldering
Apply some BGA paste flux to the bonding pad and align the power IC to the right place, mind the direction. Blow it with a hot air gun at 260 degrees.
Testing
Once the logic board is cooling enough, connect the logic board with the DC power supply. Boot with the startup signal triggered by the tweezer. Booting current displays normally, fault cleared.
Assemble the phone and test. iPhone boots and works normally.
