Chosen Solution

After replacing the iPhone 8 display, the battery percentage shows 1% and its not charging at all. I tried the following but none fixed the problem:

  1. Wireless charger and several different wired chargers with different cables but no chance.
  2. I am sure the charging port is fine since iTune recognizes the phone via USB connection.
  3. Hard reset didn’t help
  4. iOS Update didn’t (11.3.1)
  5. Put the original broken display back on, still not charging. I was wondering if anyone experienced this problem and found the solution ?

I don’t have pictures but have seen this before: there is a small component near the battery connector in the iPhone 8 that constantly gets knocked off during repair, leading to this failure. It is an easy fix for a good microsoldering technician.

Did you try reseating the battery cable? It can sometimes be as simple as that as I’ve had a few cases where the battery ribbon cable got partially disconnected when removing the metal shield that also covers the screen cables.

Would love to know what the fix is for this. As my phone is stuck at 0% and in constant reboot mode. Any help greatly appreciated!

Hey @bezad53, did you ever end up snapping a picture of where the component was on the board? I have the same issue and have ordered the component listed above - just want to verify that I’m looking in the right place. I have a pic of the logic board if you could indicate where you did your repair. Thanks! Pic:

I have had the same issue but the problem I did not drop my phone nor changed any part, as a matter of fact its brand new
