Chosen Solution
UPDATED Hi all! I’ve seen some questions asking for solutions to similar problems but not 100% like mine. I replaced the charge port in an iPhone 7 and after the repair I am having a number of issues. Taptic Not Working - no vibration response to home button presses or silent switch flicks.Service constantly “Searching” - no IMEI listed in settings eitherBattery icon reads 1% and not charging while connected. Stuck a new battery in that I know has charge and it’s still reading at 1% and no lightning symbol to show charging status. I know the port works to an extent because the phone turns on when I plug it in but I’m experiencing all of the above issues. Anyone have the same experience and know a solution? I’m ordering a new premium charge port and trying that out but I wanted to see if anyone had any other ideas.
A few thing to diagnose for the following: Taptic Not WorkingAre you referring to the vibration feedback that you get when pressing the home button, flicking the vibrate / silent switch?Service constantly “Searching”.Check if IMEI is displayed in dialer by typing *#06#. Also check if IMEI and modem baseband is displayed in settings > general > about phone. Another thing to check is Sim detection to make sure it isn’t permanently stuck on searching.Battery icon reads 1% and not charging while connected.For this one check if the connector for the battery cable is seated in fully. Other things to check would be the components around the connectors on the board for any pry damage. It could be that some components on the board may have gotten prayed off or damaged.
Did you ever resolve this issue? I’m having the same problems as mentioned above after changing my lighting port.
