| Apple won't disable Face ID after iPhone 13 screen replacement |
Apple said it is developing a software update that will prevent independent repair shops from having to move the Face ID microcontroller to work after replacing the iPhone 13 screen.
Shortly after the launch of the iPhone 13 series, repair experts found that changing the iPhone 13 screen will disable Face ID unless you also remove a small control chip from the original screen.
This complex process makes one of the most common types of repair in stand-alone garages very difficult. On the other hand, a company authorized repair shop can use a software tool that makes the new screen accept the phone easily.
Certified technicians with access to the Apple Services 2 toolkit can operate the new screen by registering the repair to Apple's cloud server, syncing the phone, and displaying serial numbers.
This enables the company to approve or reject any individual reform.
The current transfer process appears to be very challenging as it requires time, specialized equipment and the ability to use precision welding tools.
For many independent repair shops who can use screen repair as their main source of income. This process can be very difficult and can damage your business.
The workshop does not have to move the microcontroller
It is not known when Apple will release a software update to address this issue. However, if the microcontroller is not moved, the question remains, why did Face ID fail?
And it should be easier to turn on Face ID on iPhone 13 after switching screens. This is because the scanner and monitor are separate.
When the controversy erupted, the US government launched a broader campaign to promote the right to reform the rules. This unprecedented limitation is unique to the iPhone 13.
Perhaps the most powerful answer is the law of food. And all because of the placement of a small slide at the bottom of the screen.
