You probably didn’t know it, but it is now possible to carry out a chip transplant on an iPhone 6G. This little-known technique has already proven its worth when it comes to recovering data from motherboards. It stands out for its effectiveness, unlike a repair attempt that could permanently damage your phone’s memory chips. We tell you more in this complete guide.

Why chip transplantation matters on an iPhone 6G

Whether you have a newer iPhone or a more standard model, it has certain sensitive components such as the motherboard. At first glance, it should be noted that a malfunction may not be visible. To avoid confusion, there are symptoms that can help you quickly identify faults on your iPhone 6G:

  • The first sign of failure can appear as a sudden shutdown of your iPhone 6G for no apparent reason.
  • It can also happen that the home screen or wallpaper of your iPhone 6G pro gradually loses its original coloring. 
  • Your iPhone 6G may start to have an unstable connection that comes and goes intermittently.
  • There are also cases in which your phone starts automatically bouncing back calls and even data.

Once you notice these failures, you need to act quickly. Otherwise, you risk permanently losing the data on your iPhone 6G. Individuals often take the risk of repairing their motherboard themselves by following tutorials on YouTube. This is a dangerous approach that can damage not only the motherboard itself, but also other components. It is therefore not advisable to proceed this way, and do not believe repairers who try to convince you there is nothing risky about it. When you are faced with symptoms like these, it is better to opt for a chip transplant of your motherboard onto a new one.

Transplanting the chips from your iPhone 6G onto another motherboard aims to preserve all the data on your phone. To better understand this process, when you have a new motherboard, you no longer need to copy all your contacts onto it, but instead you can use the backup to restore all your data. The principle is quite similar, since the idea here is to preserve your functionality. To clarify, the chips being transplanted serve to ensure proper communication between each of your phone’s components.

You don’t know how to change the motherboard or how to transfer data to the new motherboard? That’s a small problem, because with the support of Chronodisk, specialists in data recovery, it will be much easier to give your smartphone a new lease of life through chip transplantation. As you will have understood, chip transplantation offers a success rate of nearly 80%. Whereas a repair attempt remains uncertain and very risky for the rest of the structure, and can even damage the NAND.

The essential steps for a successful chip transplant on an iPhone 6G (model A1586)

Chip transplantation is not an operation to be taken lightly. It must be entrusted to an expert to avoid any guesswork. Put simply, the professional handling this task will need to carefully remove the damaged motherboard, the chip, the SIM card holder, and several other components. Not all of the removed parts are discarded, since they will be repositioned on the new motherboard. This is a delicate maneuver that requires maximum concentration in order to avoid mishandling. Here, in summary, are the main steps for a perfect transplant:

  • You must take chip protection seriously by using suitable adhesive tape. Even so, be careful with the NAND memory, as its resistance can be compromised by high temperatures. Once the chips have been exposed to high temperatures, use a hot air gun to lift them off. Then carry out a tin replacement using a hot air gun, as well as soldering equipment.
  • The tin must be thoroughly cleaned using a soldering iron or PCB cleaner; after this step, the chip must be reballed before moving on to applying flux to the socket. Do not rush, and choose the perfect position for the chip so that it is placed correctly.

In conclusion

We do not claim that the transplantation method we have presented is the only one available for the iPhone 6G. Other, even more sophisticated methods exist. However, they have the drawback of being more expensive than standard techniques like the one we have just described in detail. By following our advice to the letter, you will see that this operation is fairly simple and can save the motherboard in question. For a perfect result at a lower cost, choose the services of a data recovery expert.
