It's a jolly good job that you managed to get the phone, so that you were able to properly deal with the previous users' data. Good to see that phone get another lease of life! Also, didn't know about the offline tracking - this is why, when you receive a used device, you should always factory reset the device, once you've ensured it is working and that any remaining accounts have been signed out of.

I once had a thief steal my car, the tool used to break in was left on the street. Reported it to police, they came and had a look, wouldn't even take the tool as evidence, even after I insisted. I never heard back from the police nor ever saw my car again. Lost about 7 grand that day. Just saw my brother go through a divorce, he followed the law, did everything that was asked of him legally, but his lying wife and dirty lawyer broke a lot of rules and have come out on top much richer people, while my brother got screwed.

This still links me to the phone. Say the seller knew the owner/is the owner, they know where it was posted to. If they get questioned about material recovered from their old phone they will know where it came from. As I said in the video, I wanted nothing to do with it. They are most likely to get off without any real consequences anyway. They didn't seem like masterminds, so may of been caught by now. I know what your suggesting is the heroic thing to have done but I would also be putting my family and I at risk in doing so.

bought your app and learned a decent bit I didn't know about my phone, and somehow the corner of my screen is bad and doesn't work with touch, I never knew that!

The iTest app is great! I'd wish the other functions of a phone were also tested, such as 4G LTE and 5G UW/5G sub-6, among others.

Well at least the phone is unsupported now but since it was used by criminals I would’ve contacted EBay and retuned the phone instead of fully going on with repairing it. But anyways, the video itself was interesting and I love watching your repair content as it inspires me to do it. I can’t right now due to expenses but when I get a job, I might consider it.

I just bought your test app, great ideea. One suggestion though, can you make it run thru a qr code on a new phone when you don’t have your apple id installed. I think ios had some way or running an app thru a visual code

Hi Hugh! My iPhone 6s is majorly damaged. Screen is cracked a little bit, camera is blurry, frame is scratched and damaged, it doesn’t work, and the vibration system is broken. Here are the changes to make: New WHITE display, new frame but SILVER color, new camera, new vibration system, and new home button to white. If the main board is damaged, please replace. When you get a price, please reply to this message and I’ll send the device with the money. Thanks!

idk how you could test for it but it would be cool in the Itest app to test for a fake rear camera. my cheap burner phone i bought at a Walmart for work while my main one was getting a screen replacement almost certainly has a second fake camera. its a Moto G stylus (2023)

For the used phone and location tracking, I'd assume it to be good practice to go into the recovery and factory reset the device before opening it up just to be extra sure in case the seller didn't do it and there might be sensitive information in the device.

Perfect video for me, bought a Pixel 6A in mint condition for €30 shipping included, it has a hairline crack which has killed the screen, planning on replacing the screen myself.

As a matter of courtesy (IF I was doing this for my mum), I would have also checked the battery health or just plain swap the battery to ensure Mum had an optimal setup/trouble free experience... After all, the phone's been opened, and it is a 6A and Lord knows what charging cycles it's had especially after a possible 2 years sitting around doing nothing... 😏
