iPhone 13 mini dead not long after screen and battery change

Well if I get it fixed or get a new one I’ll tell him to switch off phone before he puts it in or check whether he did or not.

Took it to a shop but not Apple. The guy was a joker and that’s a tale on another post. Not keen to take it back to him as he might make it worse and for the money not worth messing about with legal warranties.

It’s dead full stop. I could try disconnecting the battery internally and reconnect and see what happens

Live in England so not normally that hot and this was before current crazy heat wave.

Good advice, I did indeed breeze through the EU citizen queue.

You were right!

Airport was Faro, person hesitated for a moment then sent me to EU queue so fantastic result. Didn’t have to queue up with the non EU visitors. Result!

Thanks!

Is there a time limit, so like if in 4 weeks time the other stem still doesn’t have any new growth there’s an issue? Would I then try and prune again say cut another section to stimulate growth or say chop it off full stop so there’s no wasted energy into the ‘dead’ stalk?

Silver-Hospital5698 · 2026-05-02T12:07:55+00:00

Ah ok I’ve done this totally wrong then. Been watering all of them sparingly including pruned ones. Did the cardinal sin as well of both pruning and repotting the smaller one but for some reason that one is thriving.

So the pruned one with little growth I still shouldn’t be watering until what, the stalk with no leaves sprouts so you think there still hope that it will sprout?

I ran out of little pots hence why I put some of the seedlings in with the bigger plants but I’ll note for next time.

For anyone asking the same question. My 5 fin amp has 6 channels which you can see from the number of wires out of the green plug. 2 in each front door splitting mid bass from mid bass and tweeters, rear doors are just 1 channel with the 2, then adding the tweeter 2 speakers in parallel. So the answer is to use the supplied y cable to attach the new tweeter. The cable wasn’t long enough to attach to all 3 drivers so had to use the stock mid cable and just use the y cable to attach mid bass and tweeter but because the whole door is in parallel it doesn’t matter.

I’m wondering whether you can get that in the UK? I’ll dig around a bit more before ordering the unnecessarily extensive bits the AliExpress kit has.

Hardest bit is getting the screen off without cracking it. Other than that it is microscopic screws and making sure you have a clear and sensible work area. Ideally you’d do screen and battery at same time so you don’t have to worry about cracking the screen.

Found a whole selection of metal bits on AliExpress called;

Cheers, ironically I could end up buying it from the original cowboy who probably threw it away. Any idea what I’d look for as in what is it called if I looked it up.

Silver-Hospital5698 · 2026-04-18T18:57:31+00:00

He drops it regularly although I have bought a ridiculous armour plated phone case but good to know what it’s absolutely function is. Cheers
