iPhone 7 Plus Charging Port Replacement (Fix All Your Charging Issues!)

Today we will be fixing the charging port on my iPhone 7 Plus. In this case the port did charge, but it would not vibrate. After replacing the port, it would vibrate.

Required tools-
Tri-point - Y000
Phillips - PH000 (or JIS - J000)
Pentalobe - P2
iPhone Standoff Bit (not required, makes the job easier)
Flat blade of some sort
Heat
Patience.

Part can be found here (affiliates)-

Also happy birthday to me!

this video helped me so much!! spent the whole day yesterday working on my phone and this video was so helpful, and i was just hoping i was doing everything right grant it i’m not tech savvy and this was my first time, but push came to shove and my phone had been dead for a couple months because the charger port was damaged 🙃 but it’s working great now and it wouldn’t be if i didn’t watch this video

good video, absolutely no need to go as far as removing the logic board and top assembly of the phone though. just undoing the bottom 2 lockdown screws (2:45) allows you to lift the board up enough to slide the charge port flex out and get the new one in.

This is the first video I seen from start to finish!!! Most show how to fix it but don’t show how to put it back together and let’s face sometimes some of us can forget where this screw came from or forget this or that so…thank you!!!! Because this is a lot

It would be nice if you call out which screwdriver you are using for each task.

I replaced everything cautiously and now my phone has been stuck on apple boot logo
UPDATE: i was disassembling everything ready to put back in the old one but i just decided to give everything on more try because the connection didnt seem so good so i made sure the connection was good and it came to my suprise when i hooked everything together it turned on so for any of you guys planning on doing this make sure the connection is lined up properly ( 9:12 ) <— that connection

Thank you! I found that if I don't align the charging port flexible PCB perfectly with the white dots on the phone then the cable won't align with the port on the logic board. The way I got it to work was by starting at the top near the white dots when taping the PCB down. Honestly, I don't envy the person who has to decipher my comment but hopefully it helps someone out there.

thank you for you video..
i have a questions about this, whether by replacing the chargiing port, is there an impact that occurs on the signal by using a fake charging port?

Beettt thanks man I had to change the mic in mine and this helped tons

9:24 about two antena cables, i can't connect them back. Did you push it hard with your finger?

I'm about to try my attempt to fix my iPhone. Since I'm having issues with the charging port where I have to position the cable in a certain way to get it to even charge (I know it's not an issue with my cable or the AC adapter since my iPad shows no issues when I use the same adapter and cables), I've sort of lived for it with months though now it's gotten to the point where when it's plugged in, yet it's not charging (Battery indicator shows a lighting bolt, yet doesn't charge and the percentage goes down instead of up). I'm sort of resorting to the DIY method since I don't trust having the people at Best Buy look at my phone. Is there a way to organize the screws since I'm afraid that I'd loose track of what screw goes where?

Just done this, would not have been able to without this video. Thank you so much!

Hi bro, i had 2 problems with my i phone 7 plus (Not charging and the headphone not working), then i have replaced the hole charging port. now it is charging fine, but it is still NOT READING the HEADPHONE and i got another problem (when i put the SIM card, the iphone reacts normally asking for PIN code, and it accepts the code and start searching for the siginal and STUCK ON SEARCHING until it says NO SERVICE and i did my best to be as much careful as i can and tried to reset and restart couple of times but its still the same !!!, any idea ??

[larrynewcomer]

I can do what ever I want with my cord. Wiggle it, flip it around and plug it back in and it won't charge. And I tried different cords and that don't help. But if I smack the back of the phone it will charge sometimes. My iPhone 7 did fall off the top of my car at 45 mph it did have a otter box on it.

[borax]

are you using an original part from apple?

[lidia]

My phone instead of charging it’s keep discharging even though it’s connected I change the batteries cause I took it to Apple and they said it was the batteries but when I got home it was still not charging I think it’s might be the charging port but they so lazy to do their work. I’m scared to do this though

[DarkestEditzz]

Nice video man you teach the people to make learning some technical things

[no_thanks_mate]

while this video is a great guide on how to replace the charging port, microphone etc you do not need to pull the top components of the phone apart. there is other videos on how to do it by only pulling the bottom components apart. if you have a rough idea on what your doing you can do it that way

[djajax]

So the charger port is not on the bottom of your Apple 7 plus phone? Mine is on the bottom I don't know what it is then

[SamAndDanKids]

I did this on my iPhone but after putting it back together, it is now completely dead. What did I do wrong?

I am having trouble taking of the board
