Trang 3 The structure of RF
RF can be called the 4th block of the mobile phone (basic wave block) However, in the iPhone, the RF is a complex structure, it manages the basic wave block, Wi-Fi/BT and Global Positioning
System-GPS From Iphone4s or higher, the Wi-Fi/BT managed by the
AP part
To operate the RF part , the iPhone is designed to have more the processing unit and the Power unit The RF part is controlled by 2-layers IC via CPU of RF
» CPU controls the Baseband and stores IMEI
» Flash stores Baseband and IMEI
o iPhone 4s, iPhone 5/ 5s: Flash is replaced by Rom
o iPhone 6/ 6 Plus: Processing Unit of RF part only has CPU
c RF Unit
» Basic wave Block (2G - 3G - 4G), includes:
o Ant, Sw-Ant, Saw, Coupler
o IF Ic , PA, Cobba (CPU, Audio)
o Carrier and 13Mhz Oscillation
» Wi-Fi/BT
» Global Positioning System – GPS

Trang 9B COLLECT THE ERRORS WHEN RESTORE IPHONE BY ITUNES
April -2015 Version (iOS 7.xx - 8.xx) Require the connection between the computer and iPhone is really good
Usually iPhone can be hung cable or hung apple or sticked-on DFU mode
Sequencing restore iPhone by iTunes:
…… 1 ……….……… 2……… 3
Step 1: Begin to write software (write AP part)
Step 2: Write AP part for iPhone has finshed
Step 3: Write RF part for iPhone has finshed
Explain the Errors when restore iPhone by iTunes:
1 The stage before step 1, iTunes reports
- Error: 2003 or 2005 → cause: can be the cable runs program
- Error: 4004 or 4005 → cause: can be the computer
- Error: 3004 → cause: can be the internet
- Error: 3194 → cause: can be the last version
The Screen don't appear the apple yet, iTunes reports error 4013 or
4014 → cause: The AP part can be crossed down GND or 2-layers IC or
HDD Error Usually when iPhone is processed iCloud, 2-layers IC or
HDD will be easy crossed down GND
Trang 10Voltage (Check! The voltages supply for 2-layers IC)
2 Step 1, iTunes reports
- Error: 4013 or 4014 → cause: 2-layers IC (often is Flash) or HDD die
- Error: 9, 40, 21… → cause: can be HDD HDD can fix by external Tool
- Error: 9 → cause: can be HDD - Broken the circuit from HDD to 2-layers
IC as iP4s With iP5/ 5S broken the circuit from SEMI EEFROM to 2-layer
IC Broken the line B1
3 The stage between step 1 and step 2
- Error: 14 → cause: can be HDD - Broken the circuit from HDD to
layers IC as iP4s With iP5/5S broken the circuit from SEMI EEFROM to layer IC Broken the line B2
2 Error: 53 → cause: can be Touch ID as iP 6/ 6+ and iPad Air 2, measure
voltages or Touch ID can’t synchronize (SYNC) with mainboard
4 The stage between step 1 and step 2
- Error Baseband: 1, 3, 16, 27, 29, 3194 → cause: can’t enough voltage
or passed to down GND or the components of Baseband error
- Error: 1, 3, 6 → cause: can be CPU or crossed down GND or no enough
voltage
- Error: 27 → cause: can be CPU and Flash of Baseband no SYNC
- Error: 29 → cause: can be Battery or Board (broken the circuits at the
pins of Battery)
Trang 11- Error: 3194 (often is iP4) → cause: can’t synchronize the between CPU
and Flash or is CPU 8824
Solution 1: connected L2_RF to GND after restore iPhone, waiting for iTunes runs to “waiting for iPhone”, interrupt the connector from L2_RF to GND The purpose don’t synchronize Baseband part
Solution 2: isolated L2_RF after restore When the restore has
finished, reattaches L2_RF
C THE PANs OFTEN SEE AT IPHONE
1 With the machine is damaged after the process used It can be said, the main cause is due the water vapour or dust or using a function too more or the machine has come the old age
- Ear/ Ring/ Mic: The sound emits lowly or don’t right or die
Solutoin: clear or replace
- Home/ Power/ Volume/ Mute Button: The Button doesn’t act or acts hardly
Solutoin: clear or replace the relative components such as: buffer pads, cable…
- Charging reports fully or Charging is fast-full or Battery loss, sometimes power off, affect to network and the other functions The cause can be Battery
Solutoin: clear Battery connector or replace Battery
- Don’t detect charger or headphone, Camera is opaque, the headphone only hears one inside…
Solutoin: clear or repalce the relative components such as: socket, cables, camera…
2 With the machine has been fallen and shocked
Trang 12- Fallen weakly: in this case, often it will be damaged the peripheral
functions Such as broken glasses or touchscreen, damaged the frame
Damaged glasses or touchscreen, the simplest method is to replace
a new screen
With iPhone 4 and 4s, can remake both
However with iPhone 5 or higher can remake glasses if the touchscreen is good
Damaged the frame (with the last models as 3G, 3Gs can be broken case)
Replace or remake frame/ case
- Fallen strongly: in this case, the machine can be damaged hardly The mainboard can be flexed However, We can use iPhone sticked-on iCloud
Solution: clear and close the sockets
3 With the machine was fallen in the water
- In this case, often the machine will easy crossed down GND The
voltages have the high Volt as Vbatt, VLED, VLCD… are easy crossed down GND (Vbatt is main)
Trang 134 Collect the PANs of iPhone
- 3Gs
Damaged after the process used
Error: Power IC of AP or Flash or L6_AP (the machine doesn’t process yet)
a Power IC of AP is due charging process, the charger isn’t good
» Shows: plugged the charger reports the error or the temperature, doesn’t support the accessory, or the machine
is hot, or the full battery is slow The machine is quick the low battery
» Solution: replaces Power Ic and changes the charger
b Flash: the process unlock by the software, 3Gs from week 33/2011 or higher had been upgraded baseband This is the cause makes for Flash die
» Shows: No_all (don’t Network, IMEI, Baseband, Wi-Fi, BT)
» Solution: replace Flash
c L6_AP: This is the inductor in LED line of LCD, often cause the PAN no Light LCD
» Solution: replace L6_AP However, can affect to Power IC
Trang 14 Has been fallen and shocked
No_all, lost network, doesn’t receive SIM
a Cause: often opened the pins of CPU or Flash
b Solution: remake CPU or Flash
lost network or the network is low
a Cause: often is Switch_ant
b Solution: remake Switch_ant This IC can connect by copper wire
Sometimes power-off, power-on failure (doesn’t have Ampere/ doesn’t oscillate)
a Cause: often opened the pins of power IC
b Solution: replace power IC
Error Audio part
a Cause: often opened the pins of Audio IC
b Solution: remake/ replace Audio IC
Was fallen in the water
lost Wi-Fi (the function switch-on Wi-Fi in iPhone is opaque), signal of Wi-Fi is low
a Cause: error Wi-Fi part
b Solution: measure the voltages supply for Wi-Fi part (check XW18_RF), remake or replace Wi-Fi IC, or check the small components around Wi-Fi IC such as: L15_RF, L20_RF
The Battery is downed quickly, the Vbatt line is crossed down GND, the machine die:
a Cause: Power IC of AP, the capacitor in the Vbatt line, Wi-Fi
IC
Trang 15b Solution: isolate or replace this components
Doesn’t light LED_LCD or the screen doesn’t display
a Cause: often the socket of LCD was rusted, the lines relate to the components FL27_AP, FL28_AP, L6_AP, LED IC
b Solution: resolder the pins of socket in Board and in LCD
No network
a Cause: often damaged Sub power IC for IF IC
b Solution: remake or replace
Error Audio part and the machine is hung lowly
a Cause: Can be R89_AP or the components around Audio IC or Audio IC
b Solution: remake or repalce the relative components
Charging reports fully: opened pins R89_RF
- iP4
Damaged after the process used
Error: U62_AP (Control Audio IC), 2-layers IC, Q2_AP, Sticked_on iCloud, the machine is locked (the machine doesn’t process yet)
a U62_AP
» Shows: the recording is good but while calling isn’t good (Ear and Mic don’t act or auto open speaker out…)
Trang 16» Solution: remake U62_AP In the processs can affect to U60 at behind, A4-pair, or the components around A4-pair (lost R53 no Audio, lost R80 and R36 cause Mic and Ear don’t act when calling, lost R88 cause power-on failure)
b 2-layers IC: often see at the first iPhone 4, now is very rare
» Shows: often auto power-off (press the Power button and the Home button is acting), using web, youtube or plays Game will auto reset
» Solution: replace A4-pair or can only Flash A4 (A4-pair can share with iPad 1)
c Q2_AP
» Shows: often doesn’t receive the charger or received the charger but reports error
» Solution: replace Q2 or can connect three Pins: B1, B2, B3
d Sticked_on iCloud or the machine is locked with the basebands 4.11, 4.12
» To see the solution for iCloud
Has been fallen and shocked
The strange problems about the sound
a Cause: is due U60 or U62
b Solution: remake this ICs But if processes the U60, must report for customer Why? Will affect to A4-pair
lost Wi-Fi (the function switch-on Wi-Fi in iPhone is opaque), signal of Wi-Fi is low
a Cause: error Wi-Fi part or Wi-Fi IC
b Solution: remake Wi-Fi IC Note! Can affcet to touchscreen IC
Trang 17 No-all, lost IMEI
a Cause: often opened the pins of CPU
b Solution: closed CPU Note! Can affcet to Flash and IF IC
No network
a Cause: opened the pins or lost 2G PA
b Solution: closed or replace 2G PA
Error touchscreen
a Cause: opened the pins of touchscreen IC
b Solution: closed or replace IC before need to check the pins
of J5 socket Note! Can affect to Wi-Fi IC at behind
Was fallen in the water
Often damaged at socket of LCD, the components around Wi-Fi
IC, LED _Flash IC If the water had gone into more, can affect to socket of the main camera in behind, affect to the power part, Audio and RF part
a Doesn’t emit the light or doesn’t display the screen
» Solution: check the curcuits at socket of LCD relate to FL3, FL4 (the LED line), FL7 (the line supply voltage for LCD), replace socket of LCD
b lost Wi-Fi (the function switches-on Wi-Fi in iPhone is opaque), signal of Wi-Fi is low
» Solution: measure the voltages supply for Wi-Fi part (check XW29_RF, L21 _RF), remake or replace Wi-Fi IC, or check the small components around Wi-Fi IC
c Lost the LED _Flash or lights weakly, the machine doesn’t act but if plugged charger, it can act (this case also can meet, If the Vbatt line in the RF part was crossed down GND)
Trang 18- iP4s
Damaged after the process used
Error: Wi-Fi, the Battery was the quick loss and the hot machine, No-all (no IMEI), power-on failure due the voltages was crossed down GND
a lost Wi-Fi (the function switch-on Wi-Fi in iPhone is opaque), signal of Wi-Fi is low
» Solution: measure the voltages supply for Wi-Fi part (check XW6_RF), replace Wi-Fi IC, or check the small components around Wi-Fi IC (R46, R47, R106 R108_RF)
Note! The process can affect to other functions as:
toucscreen or LCD
b The Battery was the quick loss and the hot machine, add with the network was lambent (often the line VCC2_PA was crossed down GND)
» Solution: isolate U5_RF
c No-all (no IMEI) When meet this error doesn’t restore If restore the iTunes will report error “ -1”
» Solution: remove U1001_RF, connect by copper wire from A1 pin to A2 pin of this IC
d Power-on failure due the voltages was crossed down GND
» Solution: often was crossed down GND in the voltage lines: Vcc_main, PP1V8, PP1V2_CPU/ SOC, PP3V0_USB
Searched the voltage line was crossed down GND after isolate the capacitors and ICs in this line
