    OUR CUSTOMER, MR KAMARUL!

     

    Hello everyone! For today’s repairing post I would like to share with you one of our privileged customers that came to IPRO Ampang for our repairing services.

     

    Mr Kamarul, an iPhone 6 user, did housing, LCD and front camera replacement at IPRO Ampang!

     

    SERVICE AT IPRO AMPANG

     

    Mr Kamarul Ariffin came to IPRO Ampang one fine evening with a problem with his iPhone 6. He was greeted with full politeness by one of our technicians on duty. After resting his back on the chair right in front of our technician named Arif, he then gave his phone to Arif for inspection.

     

    The condition of the phone was totally wrecked, with a bent on the back housing of the phone that was noticeable at the top-left corner of the phone.

     

    On top of that, the screen’s phone was also in a bad condition where it did not show any displays. Before Mr Kamarul’s explained about what happened to the poor condition of his phone, from the first look of the appearance of it, in an instant you can tell that the back housing of Mr Kamarul’s iPhone needed a replacement, without a doubt.

     

    This is because the LCD could not even fit into the back shell of the iPhone that is slightly bent.

     

    Condition of back shell of Mr Kamarul’s iPhone & LCD shows no display

     

    Mr Kamarul then started telling Arif about how the phone was in such bad shape. He told that he dropped his iPhone from the third floor of his apartment, as unlucky as it already were, the phone dropped twice!

     

    He then continued telling the first time the phone dropped it was still showing display, but after the next one, the LCD popped out from the back shell of the iPhone thus the bent is formed and the screen went totally black.

     

    Arif disassembled Mr Kamarul’s iPhone to further checked other parts that were affected. Upon checking, Arif noticed that the flex cables of the front camera is teared impacted from the fall. As soon as Arif realised the faulty parts, he then immediately informed Mr Kamarul. Aware of the faulty parts, he then asked Arif for the total cost that he needed to pay of the whole replacement.

     

    Mr Kamarul was given a few selection of colours of the body shell that are blue, red, silver, rose gold, or the same as his current colour which is gold. After an agreement has been made from both individuals, Arif then proceeded with the repair. The whole replacement took about 4 hours as the entire parts of the iPhone should be transferred to the new housing.

     

    Before & After replacement

     

    Arif suggested for Mr Kamarul to leave his phone here and called him when the replacement is done, but he hesitated and decided to wait at IPRO Ampang until the whole process is finished. After the whole replacement took place, Arif tested the functionality of every parts of the phone to make sure everything worked perfectly. Arif also gave the LCD his final touch by placing a tempered glass for Mr Kamarul.

     

    After handed the iPhone back to Mr Kamarul, he then gave a quick look at it before made his way to the cashier. He then thanked Arif for the replacement before he walked out from IPRO Ampang.

    PROCESS OF A HOUSING REPLACEMENT

     

    What would you do if you accidentally dropped your iPhone from quite a peak, and ended up having your screen cracked after the fall, or the worst part if the housing or the back shell of your iPhone is bent? This is probably the worst thing that could happen to your iPhone physically and it’s heartbreaking to see the condition of your iPhone. Out of all parts of iPhone replacement, I have to agree that the housing replacement is one of the most difficult part to change and it takes some time to do, as it requires all the hard work, professional skills and steady hands of repairing. Replacing the housing is which you have to take all of the components and parts out, those little ant-sized screws, flex cables attached to the motherboard, functional buttons, all of those that you can find in the iPhone when disassembling, and you transfer them to a new piece of aluminium with a better condition.

     

    HOW DENT CAN AFFECT MOTHERBOARD

     

    The back shell of an iPhone is only available from third party manufacturers, as you all know that Apple would never give any of theirs to theirs party repair shops as this is against their policy. On a daily basis, we came across many phone problems related to a dropped iPhone. With a bent iPhone housing, it is as nerve-racking and nail-biting as it sounds. For your information, it could affect your motherboard (fingers crossed not!) as the motherboard is placed and tightened by screws through the housing of the iPhone. The motherboard is positioned at the right hand side of of the housing. So, if this aluminium piece is bent on the right hand side, the motherboard will also shapes with the bent, and will damage the Integrated Chips (IC) soldered on the motherboard. This will result to a noticeable failure such as the screen would not show any display, this could happen if your Display IC (the IC that controls the display on the screen) on the motherboard is damaged.

     

     

    PROS AND CONS OF HOUSING REPLACEMENT

     

    I would like to share with you some of pros and cons of changing the back shell of your iPhone. If you have in mind of replacing your housing just to make your iPhone appears more stylish and appealing, as the the housing comes with plenty of custom colors such as blue and red, with these colors people will tend to think that you probably have one of the “limited edition” iPhones! There is also some of the basic colors of an iPhone such as gold, space grey and rose gold. But we would not recommend it. This can be justified that the original housing of your iPhone has a special antenna installed, so that your network, WIFI and GPS have a stronger connection. So it is not a rational decision to put this beneficial use to waste.

    Anyhow, the housing from third parties are mostly lighter, but it is not as strong as the original housing. Not to mention the feel of the third parties housing is usually dull and the Apple logo on the outer side of the housing will seem to be either sink o raised a little in position. This could be because of the use of a lower grade of aluminium, and not even close tot he quality of the original housing. Week after week, you will find out that the material of the housing will start to scuff and degrade from time to time. Even that the cons of housing replacement overweighs the pros of it, it is always the best option if you have a dent housing that could possibly drag to even more damage to the phone.
