No wifi due to long screw damage?


Have a phone 6 where the owner cranked down on the lower left screw hole causing no display.

That was fixed now wifi is greyed out says N/A in setting under wifi address.

Would this also be caused by long screw? If so which line would it be?

could be you overheated the board when you fixed the screw damage?
check for soldering balls around the wifi ic. they pop out from under the ic when too much heat was used.
Reball or replace the wifi ic

i had three times the same problem on iphone 6. i fixed the long screw and no wifi. i am 100% sure that all the lines were properly soldered. i measured them.
Customer said wifi was working before he disassemble the phone. i reballed, changed the wifi ic. it did not work on all three iphone 6. If wifi not work Customer not want to pay. i had to give back.
but it would be great if somebody had an idea what does the long screw damage to do with wifi.

No solution yet. My only guess is damage occurs to third layer especially if there's any sign of delamination

yup i can confirm it now. Got the phone fixed, wifi is working.
So this one was very badly damaged, and tracks in the third layer on the right side were broken. Had to dig them up to allmost under the shield.

thanks all.

How many traces are there in the third layer? Do you know what else they're for?

interesting...
how much heat did you use to damage the pads?

I been looking a many youtuve videos where lots of tech are searching why a minimal heat leaves the ip 6 with gray out wifi.
