    Hey! I’m the guy who made the first usb-c iPhone. I enjoyed watching your video and am glad you could replicate the concepts of my video on the iPhone 13, with your own twist and originality on it.
    Some comments:
    03:17 I’m not sure if you use some heat to remove that glue, but it decreases the chances of ripping/breaking components underneath
    05:31 I’m a bit confused why you needed two 5.1kOhms resistors. R2, sure, and that would limit the charging speed (no fast charging) when the USB-C is plugged in one of the two ways. I see you mention that at the end of the video. But I don’t believe R1 is needed.

      Hey Kenny Pi, thanks for watching!!
      Yeah I don't think I was using any heat to remove that glue on the flex, even though I did use heat when removing glue on the C94. But unlike the iPhone X charging flex, it's got those tiny components butted right up against the ports pins, so I don't know how I was going to desolder the port really.
      I have seen many people add usb-c to various devices and use a 5.1k resistor on both CC pins. Wasn't sure if it was necessary tbh 😕
      Thanks for your great video. Yours was definitely a better build internally with everything on the flexible circuit board, way cleaner, and also less obtrusive around the battery.
      I originally started this project at the end of November, trying to get something made by the end of December or January, so i tried a simpler approach, but the project dragged on and on and life got in the way. Was tempted to try and get fast charging working both ways, but decided to just call it. ✌️

    • @GRLDT
      @GRLDT 2 роки тому +1

      cmiiw, but I believe those 5.1k resistors are for type-c to type-c connections and let the connected device (in this case a computer) know it's not a host device, if not you'll need to use a type a to type c cable for it, I only work with custom keyboard PCBs but that's all I know

    • @capodellatrap
      @capodellatrap 2 роки тому +4

      I think that the only one way fast charging is perfect: just do a dot on the side of the cable that charges fast the phone, so you'll have a fast charging mode for the day and a slow charging mode for the night when you don't need crazy speed

    Being an engineer at heart, I love when someone calls out a big tech like Apple w/ examples, for their incredible stubbornness that only serves the dark-pattern of locking to their absurd "lightning cable" standard.
    Crazy that Apple, a company that takes pride in creating the best product for its users, argued "regulatory action stifles innovation" when EU had to force them to move to USB-C. This example clearly shows that they could put a USB-C without any major design compromise.
    Do better Apple!
