I successfully replaced the cracked screen (including serial number ID code transfer) on my daughter's iPhone X, but a few months later it was dropped from knee height, landing vertically in its thin rubber case on the lightning socket end. No visible damage at all.
    From then, the screen stopped working, so I opened it, checked all the ribbon plugs/sockets and even put the old cracked screen back, but still nothing.
    However, it still plays the alarm-tune every morning and rings when you call it, but the "Play Sound" feature of "Find My iPhone" is still waiting for an internet connection, even though there is a valid SIM installed.
    If you disconnect and reconnect the battery you can touch the screen 6 times before it does a taptic wobble so the passcode still seems operative. You get a taptic wobble if you plug in a charger, but it doesn't show in iTunes if you connect it to a PC using a Lightning cable that worked with the same iTunes a few minutes earlier with a different iPhone.

    Reminds me of the time I won an auction for a monitor for $12, then then cost them over $20 to ship.

    6:12 I remember back in the day people would 'reflow' solder by baking components in an oven... would it be worth trying for something like this, given it doesn't work anyways?

    Hi Hugh, love your work. I have been wathcing you for quite a long time and I have decided to start repair my devices. I want to buy some tools from iFixit and I want to use you code for the discount but I cant is that because I live in Romania? Is it your code only applies in Australia?
    Keep up the good work👍🏽!
