On November 5, the disassembly website iFixit issued a document saying that if you go to a third-party repair shop to replace the screen of the iPhone 13 series, you will not be able to use Face ID. How is this going?
IFixit said that through disassembly, it was found that the iPhone 13 series has a built-in small microcontroller that pairs the iPhone 13 with the screen. If a third-party repair shop wants to bind the new screen to the device, it must obtain Apple’s authorization to use a specific tool to synchronize the repair records to Apple’s cloud, thereby synchronizing the iPhone and the screen serial number. Even if the third-party repair shop has a way to bypass this step, it will cost more time and a lot of work, which is more than the loss.
Apple did this, iFixit was not surprised, because in the previous dismantling of the Phone 12 series, iFixit found that Apple introduced similar maintenance restrictions on the iPhone 12 camera. In the early days, the iPhone 12’s camera maintenance required Apple’s special system configuration tool to run normally; later, Apple did not directly disable the camera, but let the system pop up a notification to remind users that the camera may not be genuine.
Apple has long seen that maintenance is a business with good income. Apple is expanding its independent maintenance program to “almost all countries where Apple products are sold.”CELL PHONE BATTERIES – Shop a wide selection of cell phone Batteries at www.oriccabattery.co.uk Fast Shipping.
