Hi All, As the title says , got my first iPad Mini 3 here , replaced the digitizer following the instructions on iFixIt …….. all went without a hitch. Managed to transfer original home button over to the replacement too! Switched it back on after repair ………. Doh! Cracked the LCD! :( :( Replaced the LCD ……… all worked fine until the iPad went flat (it was very flat when the client brought it to me) Now I can’t get ANYTHING out of it at all , have left it on charge for several hours , tried multiple chargers and genuine Apple Lightning cables , double checked connections for the LCD and digitizer etc ……. Totally bizarre!! Anyone seem anything like this? Point me in the right direction before I tell the customer I’ve broke their ipad? :P Thanks in advance!!!
You may have shorted out the backlight filter when removing the LCD if the battery was still connected. I have seen similar issues on earlier versions of the iPad Mini but never on the Mini 3 (yet)
I have the same problem. Have you solved in any way?
