The process of separating alcohol from mash is called - distillation or the process of stripping alcohol. (article for persons +18!)

Almost all new phones from Apple are bestsellers. They are very popular and forever won the hearts of most consumers. These gadgets are very reliable, functional and convenient. Despite their qualities, all iPhones, like all other smartphones, can break down. More often than not, the consumer is to blame. In a large number of cases, you can repair the iPhone with your own hands, but it’s better to contact the service center specialists anyway. Apple Restore , they offer a free new service to call an Apple repair technician to your home, work, or other place convenient for you.

There are not so many main causes of iPhone breakdowns.These are software-related breakdowns (programs close by themselves, the phone “thinks” for a long time), which occur if there was an intervention in the base platform or an incorrect installation of some application was made. The next type of breakdowns are breakdowns associated with the fact that the phone was dropped on the floor, something was dropped on it, and in the end they sat on it. Repair after such operations with the phone is not done quickly, and it is not cheap. A more serious breakdown may be a short circuit resulting from liquid getting on the iPhone's circuit board. Repairs can be very expensive, or it can happen that the phone cannot be repaired.

The most common breakdown is the failure of the display or touchpad as a result of the phone being dropped on the floor or asphalt. This breakdown can be fixed on your own and not contact the service center, paying large bills for repairs.

So, first you need to unscrew the two bolts that are located at the edges of the cable connection connector. Then you should carefully remove the top panel along with the display. This can be done with a regular suction cup or pry off the edge.

From the end of the removed panel there are still small bolts, which should also be unscrewed from both sides. There is another bolt next to the cable, which must not be forgotten to unscrew. Thus, the display cable and the touchscreen were disconnected. Now the display with a metal frame must be removed. This can be done with a knife.

We take a new display and, if the touchscreen is in order, we assemble the phone. But, if you need to replace the touchscreen, then the removed display must be put aside. In order to separate the touchscreen from the metal frame, you need to take a building hair dryer and heat it around the entire perimeter. After this procedure, the touchscreen should be separated from the frame with a scalpel.

Next, you need to take a double-sided thin tape and stick it around the perimeter on the panel body. The new touchscreen must be glued to the adhesive tape and the phone must be assembled.

Of course, all these manipulations are not difficult, but there is one “BUT”. During such repairs at home, there is a high probability that other parts of the gadget will be affected and damaged, the repair of which will result in a tidy sum.

Here is a video tutorial for self-repairing iPhone 5. Select your device and see how to disassemble the phone and properly replace the damaged part. We will show you how to fold the phone back.

We are always happy to help you.

According to many surveys, the iPhone is the most popular phone in the world today. Popularity did not come by itself. To achieve it, first of all, a well-thought-out advertising campaign was created. Not the last factor in all the work was the impeccable quality of the device. Together, these two aspects played a role in the promotion of iPhones.It is known that the owners of such devices very rarely turn to service centers due to a factory defect, since it is almost completely absent.

If the creators took the production of the iPhone very responsibly, then not every user can boast of careful use of the phone. Therefore, breakdowns happen quite often (due to the fault of the buyer). In service centers, breakdowns such as broken touchscreens and moisture inside the phone are most often recorded. Such trouble can overtake any Apple device. You can find a list of malfunctions that most often occur due to the fault of iPhone users on the website.

Given the high cost of repair services, there are cases of self-troubleshooting of smartphones. Masters who are at least a little versed in the Internet think that they will resurrect their phone with the help of search engines and numerous forums. No one can become a professional just by typing the phrase “iPhone repair”. The iPhone is a complex technique, so the positive and negative sides of the “home craftsman” begin to emerge along the way.

The main plus of home repair is that it is completely free (this is the case if the owner can cope with the task). In most cases, in practice, it turns out that later, after such repair work, you have to pay a larger amount than the one that was originally expected.

The most common mistake is replacing the touch screen yourself. In order to really repair the touchscreen (or protective glass), you will need special equipment and tools, which, most likely, you simply cannot find. You will be able to replace the screen, but how long it will last will only be known along the way. After independent interventions, you only have to believe that this period will be as long as possible.

And most importantly, after repair at home, the factory warranty will cease to be valid and if you need to carry out repairs at a service center, then all work will only be paid. Although there are such “home repair masters”, after which even the service center will not be able to help the device.

But I would like to clarify that there are such problems that almost every iPhone owner can solve: outdated software. You can update it yourself, however, it is worth using licensed programs recommended by the manufacturer.

After a large amount of information, I still want to say that it is better to entrust iPhone repair to knowledgeable people. Although if you are a person who likes risk, you can try, but do not forget that as a result you can pay a decent amount of money.

No one can insure against breakage even the most expensive phone. The abundance of video materials do-it-yourself iPhone repair, freely available on the World Wide Web, often encourages smartphone owners to take on their own repairs. Watching any video in which the wizards replace the power and go to the desktop buttons, fix various other problems, users try to have time to repeat every movement after the service engineers.At the same time, they do not always realize that such training videos are posted on the network, first of all, not for ordinary users, but for specialists with practical experience in restoring the device's performance.

Why do-it-yourself iphone repair does more harm than good

desire to fulfill do-it-yourself iPhone 6 plus, 5s, 4s repair most often begins to visit smartphone owners after visiting one or more service centers and getting acquainted with the cost of their services, which, depending on the type of breakdown, can cost more than one thousand rubles. However, self-repair can be fraught for the owner of the phone:

• Damage to expensive equipment. Modern smartphones are complex electronic devices, all the details of which are inextricably linked. Therefore, undertaking to repair one, a novice repairman can disable another, which will invariably entail additional repairs.
• Loss of warranties. Given that the warranty does not cover all types of breakdowns, sometimes users try to fix some of them on their own, unaware of the fact that such intervention deprives their phone of the right to warranty service.
• The extra cost of acquiring a special tool that you may never use again. The basic list of necessary equipment includes: a special spatula for prying, a suction cup for removing the screen module, a screwdriver, tweezers. The cost of purchasing the original tool, as a rule, does not justify itself.
• Waste of time. Without practical experience, it can take more than one hour to completely disassemble a smartphone, and how much time will it take to complete the assembly operations in reverse order. Whereas most of the repair manipulations in the service center do not take more than one hour and can be performed in the presence of the client.

However, all of the above does not save them from breakdowns: as a result of mechanical damage, contact with water and inaccurate use, an expensive device can fail for a long time.

To bring your broken device back to life, you will most likely need an iphone repair. But in no case should you try to bring the gadget back to life on your own, as this is fraught with a final breakdown of the device. It is much better to apply for this service to a professional service center, especially since such companies, due to the wide popularity of Apple products, are in every major city.

To fully restore the functioning of the iphone, the repair must be carried out after a preliminary diagnosis, which will reveal the extent and cost of restoration work. To restore the health of an "apple" smartphone, the following types of work can be performed:

• cleaning the device after water, dust or sand has entered it;
• replacement of structural elements (glass, buttons, microphone, speaker, camera or antenna);
• work with software (configuring and flashing iOs);
• soldering the motherboard or connectors;
• battery replacement and more.

Repair of iphone at the price and duration depends on the type of repair and the qualifications of the company's employees. For example, replacing glass and display takes about 20 minutes and costs about 5 thousand rubles.Replacing the battery takes about an hour and costs 1500 rubles.

Some service centers, trying to attract more customers, are dumping (offering prices for services much lower than market prices).

But it is not recommended to use the services of such companies, since the quality of repairs in them leaves much to be desired. And instead of a repaired gadget, you can get only wasted money and a broken smartphone.

It has been said a thousand times: do not self-medicate, but still there are people who think that there is nothing complicated in repairing an iPhone. The Internet is full of sites with instructions on how to replace the screen in an iPhone, or change the battery in an iPhone 6, and YouTube is full of videos on the topic "how to disassemble an iphone."

This leads to the fact that everyone who has a screwdriver begins to consider himself an electronics repair engineer, and this is not so.
First, the obvious: there are a lot of instructions on how to disassemble an iPhone, but there is practically no information on how to put it back together. And not always actions in reverse order are correct or obvious.
Secondly, even a simple mechanical repair of digital equipment, for example, replacing a display, implies not only the presence of a tool for opening the iPhone, but also requires the arrangement of an ESD-protected workplace so that an accidental static electrical discharge does not damage the electronic components on the motherboard in the smartphone.

Further more:
The modern iPhone is the result of the application of design and engineering ideas: huge functionality in a small package. A lot of different-sized screws that seem to be the same size to the eye, and the holes where the screws are screwed are of different depths.
Not knowing the nuances, such an unfortunate master will randomly screw in the screws while assembling the iPhone after replacing the display, and then he will sit and wonder why the iPhone just worked, and now, after replacing the screen and subsequent assembly, there is no image in the iPhone. And there is no image in the iPhone because under the sleeves where the mounting screws are screwed in, there are conductive paths connected just with the display. And this repairman, screwing in a longer screw, damaged them. Restoring the conductive tracks in the inner layers of the iPhone circuit board is quite an expensive repair, more expensive than replacing the display module at an Apple service center.

And there are more and more such clients, and if in the case of the iPhone, you can get by with replacing the main board, which is quite expensive compared to the cost of an iPhone, then replacing the motherboard of a MacBook is equivalent to the cost of a used computer.

Trust the professionals, and don't skimp on the repair of quite expensive Apple digital equipment if you want to continue using your gadget, being sure that it will not let you down at the most inopportune moment for this, for example, on the way to the airport.

Apple Service engineers will repair your iPhone with high quality and with a guarantee for the work performed and replaced parts, in compliance with all service procedures provided by Apple.

Apple blog: here you can find both useful information related to the repair of Apple computers, iPhone, iPod and iPad, as well as read about the curious cases that arise in the course of the service center.

Question from a reader with the nickname himrus11:

Hello! Is there any procedure that allows you to eliminate all sorts of minor scratches and scuffs without replacing the case? So to speak, cosmetic repairs.

The specialists of the ModMac service center answer:

Hello! There are a lot of solutions here. Remember, the iPhone 5 was constantly blurring the edges, and many used a black marker to paint over them. The main thing is to choose the one that will not be erased - probably, the method is also suitable for the iPhone 7. Scratches and scuffs, for example, on a Mac, can be touched up with an ordinary pencil, and some dirt can be easily removed with an ordinary eraser! In principle, you can do all this yourself, and if you want to restore the original appearance, alas, you can’t do without replacing the case.

Question from a reader with the nickname chapaj1984:

Hello! The problem with the iPad, the speaker wheezes and works quietly, what could be?

The specialists of the ModMac service center answer:

Good day! Unfortunately, recently this problem has begun to occur more and more often, both on the iPhone and on the iPad. Owners tend to take their devices to the bathroom, where there is a high risk of moisture getting into exposed parts of the device, including through the speaker grille. Also, the cause of this problem could be a blow, not even a strong one. In this case, only replacing the speaker will help.

If you have any questions for the experts, feel free to ask them in the comments. We will try to answer everything, but please note that this can sometimes take time - there are a lot of questions.

Despite the fact that any Apple product is a complex high-tech device, the malfunctions of which must be fixed by a specialist, a simple do-it-yourself iPhone repair possible, although it is difficult to recommend to users. But, there are different circumstances in life, and therefore it is impossible to exclude the fact that someday you will have to do iPhone repairs yourself, of course. Most of the work related to the elimination of breakdowns of smartphones requires special skills, as well as the availability of expensive diagnostic and repair equipment, but repairs such as iphone display replacement the owner of the smartphone may well produce it, if he shows due care. iPhone screen damage is one of the most common causes of smartphone breakdown and anyone can face this problem.

To produce do-it-yourself iPhone repair, you need to stock up on special tools. To replace the iPhone display, the kit will be minimal, but you still can’t do without it. First of all, you need a PENTALOBE screwdriver or, as the people call it, “chamomile” and “Phillips” screwdriver. In general, if you are going to periodically do repairs and improve your skills, it is better to purchase a set of screwdrivers for Apple technology, but this is enough to replace the screen.

You also need a silicone suction cup, a plastic spatula and tweezers for small parts. In general, a complete set of iPhone repair tools looks something like this:

First of all, you need to carefully unscrew the screws that secure the screen. They are located below and this task is not too difficult even for a beginner. You just need to be a little careful not to damage the screw heads or scratch the smartphone case with a screwdriver.

After that, with the help of a suction cup, you need to gently lift the screen, helping yourself with a plastic spatula. In the event that a broken iPhone display is being replaced, it is best to pre-stick adhesive tape on the glass to avoid spilling the part into fragments.

When the display is removed, you can see the internal components of the smartphone, but we are only interested in a metal plate fixed with three bolts - it is this plate that hides the cable connectors that connect the screen.

After the plate is removed, very carefully, using tweezers, disconnect the connectors, all three pieces. Everything, we can assume that we have coped with this part of the work - the iPhone display has been removed.

Let's take a look at the new screen. Before installation, you need to “transplant” the Home button, microphone and front camera. To remove the button, unscrew the two bolts:

After that, with the maximum possible care, we separate this part of the button from the old screen, which, by the way, is glued quite well:

That's it - the Home button is removed without incident:

Let's take care of the camera - it is fastened with two bolts:

You must also remove the camera very carefully so as not to damage or tear anything.

By the way, do not forget the plastic holder on the old screen, which also needs to be rearranged.

Removing the metal plate

When everything is removed, you can start assembling and installing a new iPnone screen.Installation takes place in the reverse order and, if you removed the old screen yourself, then installing a new one should not be difficult. But, I would like to remind you once again that accuracy in do-it-yourself iPhone repair, is in the first place, because if something goes wrong, it may be necessary to purchase a new part and unforeseen expenses. Do your own iPhone repair only if you are confident in your abilities, otherwise leave Apple repairs to professionals.

Considering the Russian mentality, I am sure that there will be a huge number of “amateurs” and “home professionals”, or just self-taught techies who will definitely take on iphone5 repairs on their own. But such self-confidence does not always end in success. Especially with such cunning devices as Apple products. But my friend took his device in St. Petersburg to a specialized iPhone 5c repair service, and of course I started repairing it myself).

First of all, it is desirable to find out whether the phone is subject to warranty service. And in this case, it is better to use the services of a service center, in order to avoid serious damage from unprofessional actions that are no longer covered by the factory warranty. If the warranty is no longer covered by the iphone 5, as in my case, you need to determine what kind of breakdown - software failure or hardware damage. Some problems can be fixed with new firmware. If you have experience flashing, in principle, you can do it yourself, but you need to check the health of all cables, since interrupting the software update process can lead to irreversible damage, which life has shown more than once.But, nevertheless, it is better to entrust to a professional than to sit and experiment if there is no solid knowledge in software.

Considering the high-quality assembly of the iphone 5, the most frequent are mechanical damages, which lead to the breakage of the screen and case. The front glass is the most vulnerable point of the device, due to its fragility. It is quite difficult to change the glass in the iPhone 5 on your own, since you need to change the sensor and display along with the glass. All three parts are a single module that is not divided into component parts.
