Common Phone Repair Tips and Guides
1. Screen Cracked or Unresponsive?
- Avoid pressing too hard—it could make things worse.
- Don’t try to remove broken glass yourself.
- Place the phone in a soft case or wrap it until it’s repaired.
- Bring it in ASAP—screens can further damage internal components if left cracked.
2. Battery Draining Quickly?
- Check battery health in settings (iPhone users may see a “Service” message).
- Avoid extreme temperatures—heat can degrade battery life.
- Reduce background app activity and screen brightness.
- If the phone shuts off unexpectedly, a battery replacement may be needed.
3. Charging Port Not Working?
- Try a different cable and power adapter.
- Gently clean the port using a soft brush or toothpick (no metal objects).
- Still not charging? You may need a charging port repair or flex cable replacement.
Diagnostic Clues to Watch For
| Issue | Possible Cause |
|---|---|
| Screen unresponsive | Digitizer damage or screen failure |
| Phone not turning on | Battery failure or motherboard issue |
| Overheating | Battery issue or software conflict |
| No sound during calls | Speaker/mic fault or software issue |
| Camera blurry or not focusing | Lens damage or software issue |
Why DIY Isn’t Always the Best Choice
We often see phones come in with more damage from DIY attempts than the original issue. YouTube videos don’t always show the hidden screws, sensitive connectors, or risks of damaging the motherboard.
Phone Chek’s trained technicians use proper tools and high-quality parts to ensure safe, long-lasting repairs—backed by a warranty.
We Only Use High-Quality Parts
Whether you need a screen, battery, or charging port replacement, we only use premium OEM-quality parts. That means better performance, safety, and compatibility—without affecting features like Face ID, Touch ID, or True Tone.
