lately we've been hearing about a lot of
issues involving Apple and prepare just
recently we read a story coming out of
Norway that Apple sent in a team of
attorneys to sue an independent repair
shop just for using aftermarket parts
with that mentality they could sue every
repair shop on the planet needless to
say their claims are ridiculous and they
lost the case the Linus tech team just
shared a video showing Apple refusing to
repair their gently damaged iMac pro
either because a third party
disassembled it or for some other
convoluted excuse Apple is also refusing
battery replacements to iPhone users for
similar reasons got a third party screen
no new battery for you Apple still has
people waiting weeks to get their new
batteries we know for a fact that you
don't need to be a genius to replace the
battery in your iPhone so why wait leaks
to get that battery upgrade you can do
it yourself in 30 minutes and that
shouldn't be a crime oh by the way we've
got fix kits for that you'll find the
link in the description below and on top
of all of this iPhone eights and tens
with a third party screen are
malfunctioning after the release of iOS
11.3 aftermarket replacement screens for
the iPhone 8 and 8 plus have stopped
responding to touch entirely effectively
breaking the phone's but we ran some
tests and even after you swap your
iPhone 8 8 + or 10 screen using original
Apple parts the auto brightness and true
tone features are immediately disabled
that is a lot of bugs all seemingly
targeted at independent iPhone repair
which has led some serious frustration
in the repair community and made a few
folks more than a little suspicious a
couple years ago error 53 bricked
iPhones that had replaced home buttons
and last year we saw a ton of iPhone 7s
lose touch screen functionality after
being repaired with third-party displays
both of those issues were fixed with a
software update from Apple and that
history does lead us to believe that
we're probably dealing with a software
issue with iOS 11.30 but and this is a
big but Apple has never supported
independent repair and continues to
fight against your rights by using their
unlimited funds to lobby against right
to repair legislation but the right to
repair movement is ramping up and the
feds are on our side the FTC just
announced that they've reminded
manufacturers
warranty stickers are illegal and
third-party repairs can't void your
warranty so you can stick those warranty
stickers where the Sun don't shine we've
seen time and time again that we cannot
depend on manufacturers to be our sole
option for repair so we need you to
support the right to repair movement get
out there and share your repair photos
using hashtag right to repair and
hashtag I fix it
we need to send Apple a message that
it's not a crime to fix the things that
you own and doing so shouldn't break
your thousand-dollar phone or your
$5,000 computer happy fixing
