Hi to all,
I'm repairing iPhones from few years , but this is something that I'm see for the first time and I'm little confuised
iPhone 5 working but some times screen goes to grey lines and phone start to reboot randomly . When disconect the battery and connect again boot OK.
I decide to check around the A6 /nand , heating a low to remove the plate as ussual . Checked the area with the microscope and all was good , reflow the plate again and the phone goes to DFU mode and when try to restore the apple logo came iTunes say waiting for iphone and that is all .Try to restore only the motherboard without screen and etc same thing.
Any advice is very welcome ...

Regards

Used ireb to put phone in extreme dfu mode. In latest ireb you will not find iphone 5, just use the iphone 4 as model.

Nope did not work.
Just notice that the screen is black when trying to restore- like black iphone but the phone is white , so I think there is a oroblem with some small capacitor but can't find info about it, so please if any one know something to share here !?

Thanks
