Probably came from Techrax’s garage sale. 😂😂😂

I love how he takes the time to actually repair a phone properly. He doesn’t rush stuff and mess everything up like other repairs shops do, and he is overall one of my favorite repair channels. Great job Hugh! :D

Generally that kind of damage only happens when you use an non-authorized finger on the phone

I love watching these types of videos since it shows that "destroyed" can be fixed I work as a repair tech for a restaurant group and one of the major jobs is rebuilding equipment that has been poorly treated. I constantly hear employees say "we just need a new unit" when I tell them that no you need to take care of the stuff and you'll be shocked how long it'll last

The fact that you can just build a new phone BY HAND is amazing to me. Brilliant work. I’ve seen you do such transplants so many times, and it never stops to amaze.

10:29 that panic was real! glad you passed through that in the end anyways. very nice video again, hugh! you've saved it from going into the bin!

It is mesmerizing how you get something totally trashed and leave it at the end looking pristine. You are amazing, Hugh.

I don't usually watch iPhone repair videos, but for yours, I make an exception. I love your work!

"the seller did a little bit more than drop it" yeah i think he accidentally dropped it infront of the highway before it flew off the highway and fell down a 500km hill

Old grandma be like: "You should keep it." "It still works"

One man’s destroyed iPhone is another man’s restoration project.

This is almost genius. The level of care you show to properly fix each minute bracket or part is amazing.

Hugh, TY for your close up of disassembling & reassembling phones. I had a couple brakes in wrong locations that was preventing phone from closing properly.

I love how even if the iPhone is absolutely destroyed, you still have a chance at repairing it because the logic board is untouched

10:57 - That's the best peel and timing of "and we're done" you've done in a while! Love it! The minty phone looks 👌

You make repairs seem so simple. Love your videos, your repair and video editing skills are superb. Keep up the great work.

Hey Hugh i love the way you take time to explain all the procedure

I don't think I will get tired of watching these videos of you narrating and performing a quality repair with great details!

I’ve been waiting for this video! I’m tackling a similar repair for my nephews 11 for the very first time! His was destroyed almost as bad as this lol. Even bought my first parts programmer for it! I’ll post my results after! Thanks Hugh! Keep ‘em coming!

Hey I just want to thank you for everything. Every video you posted made me feel better and better and i hope that you will continue because you are the one that made me choose this life and i am very happy that i have been there since you posted the iphone colection in 2017 and videos like the 2 dead apple watch, iphone 6 16GB, iphone 5c, iphone 4, the ipad that got run over, the bent s8, samsung s4, and i couldnt forget the transparent iphone 4s. that was enough for me to see every video of you ever. I am now studying technology thanks to you i found whats best for me and thanks to you i can do a job that i will like for my life and i am forever grateful that you did this for me even tho you never knew me Thank you.

Amazing transformation. Well done!

That’s a mint repair! Thanks Hugh for the inspiration! I started repairing iPhone thanks to your videos 👍

the camera shots you use to show the repaired phone is always a treat at the end of the video

Always interesting to watch Dr Jeffreys operate. The Dr has brought more of these back to life than Dr Frankenstein.

Hugh I love your videos, you've inspired me to fix tech related things for people and myself, in fact if it wasn't for your inspiration my cousin's obliterated Galaxy Note 9 and severely damaged but otherwise working 10+ would be in a landfill instead of being fixed by me and used by my aunt and me respectively and your teardown instructions are amazing and detailed Thank you for everything dude and keep up the awesome work!

Thanks for the video. Awesome as usual

oh how i wish we had guys like you here in kenya tbh such thorough work!

Never has "resurrected" to describe the finished product been more correct. Well done and thanks for the tips with the battery so we don't end up shorting things out.

Great job , love watching you fix phones.

Great video hugh! I really like the mint green! Quick question why did you not pair the screen and display? Is pairing not effective anymore?

Right to repair must be the way forward with all the shortages that we are seeing. When will Apple acknowledge that and make repairs easier!

You’ve kind of encouraged me to get into repair. I just have an XR, SE, and 3GS that need batteries, but it’s a start. I think my mid 10 pro needs a battery too.

You know it’s a good day when Hugh posts a new vid

I love your videos and think you‘re one of the most capable 3rd party repairers. What I noticed tho was the missing gasket? Best regards.

Considering how these phones normally have family photos on the lock screen, I wasn't expecting to see the eraserhead radiator lady.

0:05 so obliterated. that iPhone 11 has suffered a lot of damage

Love the content Hugh!

I've watched so many of these videos, I'm convinced I am a repair technician now😎

"And it's not just the camera bump" got me dying...

Great job as always, I’m surprised that it was still alive after that (backlight)

This is exactly what everyone needed. Just another great, yet interesting video by Hugh. I had a long day at work, working for 15 hours straight because everyone called in, and this video was just satisfying and to the point. Thank you Hugh.

I really like the mint colour of the replacement housing

I saw the word "obliterated" & I had to view!! Great content g!

You are a tech deity from the vast levels of the internet not just a technician. 🔥🔥🔥

Awesome video as usual. Do you think you could do something complex like a Microsoft Surface book? I'd be curious to know how that might work.

Love your video Brother 😍

Please explain the “locking” you encountered: since you purchased it coming from a garage sales, I was expecting it to be cloud locked (hence useless) how did you manage to unlock it?

You make it look so easy bro but was very interesting to watch

The worst phone I repaired was a iPhone 8 Plus that had its back glass shattered, the phone overall was bent very badly, the screen was shattered and the LCD had major damage, finally opening the phone up it was full of motor oil

When the term of damage “lawn mower” is used for this, it doesn’t look like it.

I missed these so much😭

Hi, I love your videos. Just for your information, if you want to get the battery health without warning you have to exchange the original battery flex through soldering into new battery and also use the battery programmer. Also, for the display, there is a small chip in the display, replace this chip into new display, then your display also works fine. Cheers

I love your repairs👁👅👁

It is an original housing. If you look back at 6.17 you can see that at the bottom of the housing there is a QR code on the glass. But next to the qr code there is the apple logo that got covered with a black marker. Most likely due to avoid problems with custom if it gets imported or carried from another country

such satisfying work

To be honest I had one worse than this and I fixed it. Also switching the color from black to red. But good job as always!

Bravo Hugh 👍🏼 where do you buy official battery ? 🙏🏻

one day I'll be watching a video from High titled 'This iPhone has turned to dust, let's fix it' 😂😂Great video as always Hugh.

Hugh love your great videos 😃

I have to say, you attempt to repair stuff most off us would think was beyond hope!

This is probably one of the few cases where if you took it to Apple and they told you “Maybe just get a new one” it would be acceptable.

Hugh great video. Could the old battery be used to program and pair the new one on this phone

Lady in the radiator action. Sweet!

Hey Hugh Jeffreys that mint green apple housing looks better than the black one that you took off and I would actually like too have that IPhone 11 it looks really cool.

With the battery if you check phone repair guru's videos he shows that if you swap one of the boards from the old battery to your replacement one the phone thinks it's still using the 'genuine' battery. It does look a bit fiddly but it would be worth trying so you don't get the battery message.

The phone's wallpaper is the chick from Eraserhead! @ 2:40

This iPhone 11 has still smoother edges than mine

I really like the mint green color of this phone. I wonder if Apple has even offered this color choice at all.

best part is "and we are done.." love from Sri Lanka

Hey mate, I’m a new repair technician and I have a question because I’ve seen it before: how did you bypass the lock after factory resetting through iTunes?

Very interesting! Tnank you.

Hey I am starting my own phone repair buisiness at my school from what I learned in your videos! I saw the iPhone XR video and now looking at this one. The iPhone XR seems to have two different brand screens (LG and Toshiba) that are not incompatible with each other (touch screen issues). I have done Google searches and have not found much about this incompatibility. Does this occur on other phones besides the XR? I see in this video that you did not mention the brand of the screen replaced. Thank you! I am familiar with repairing Samsung phones but not iPhones btw

That's why you just buy a case and tape the back glass, so once it breaks the tape will catch it, on my s22 I just left the shipping plastic on the glass.

Fabulous job as always 👏😎🇮🇪

Only a minute since! Perfect timing.

Nice Video Hugh Jeffreys i am from North Carolina In the US

I love the digs into the Apple core.😂🤣

Can you please do a surface book repair?

Good stuff, mate 😊

After seeing all the issues that frame had, you should've checked for the speaker grills but still a great job as all ways

that´s real dedication dude, amazing job!

Really enjoy your takedowns…way better than jerry something’s channel!!! Keep it going mate!

Mr. Hugh Jeffreys, I would like to find out which Infinix you could recommend buying

Hey I think the housing may be a real one. Toward the bottom of the phone on the left side of the charge port, they blacked out the Apple logo you’d find on original housings. The third party ones NEVER have this. Apple always brands their components with an Apple logo somewhere. Even the housings.

My favourite type of vids

Nice video, man! I do repair phones too, iPhone, Samsung, Oppo, Xiaomi, Huawei ,Nokia and old phones with slide , flip, normal(with keyboard). Greetings from Romania 😁

Can you replace the FaceID sensors with third-party (aftermarket) parts or swap FaceID parts from another iPhone to another iPhone like the dot projector and IR camera? How do you know when you buy a refurbished iPhone that the FaceID sensors are original and not third-party parts or have been replaced or tampered with?

i think you should buy the reflashing device for the battery and the screen, it will help you aloy

As always Hugh Jeffreys, THANK YOU as big as the sky ..

lmao the huge text on this phone suggests it was definitely a lawn mower incident

What do you do when phones are iCloud locked? Do you simply thrown them away or do you have some software which is capable to crack the find my protection?

Last thing I was expecting was an eraserhead wallpaper

I wish he would say what the total price was and how long it took. You can't really tell if something was worth it if you don't know what the price was. Keeping stuff out of the landfill is always noble but sometimes it just makes a lot more sense to use a destroyed device for parts than to do a full rebuild like this.

The previous owner mustve been an Eraserhead fan, good taste.

I'm still amazed at how many screw needed for an iPhone

How did you get into phone repair? And can you help me get into it as I am a beginner and have zero experience in this?

Hey I’m trying to get into phone repairs, where do you get your housing and lcd displays from

if a BMS board still exist on the old battery, you can fix battery warning issue

You skipped the part of true tone transfer to the new display. Not sure if it works.

were you satisfied the refurb screen actually used a genuine lcd? looks like it has a weird tint to me
