  4. Reballing and Repair

    • Completed the reballing procedure for the CPU.
    • Conducted a power-on test after the repair.

Result

  • After reballing the CPU and completing the repair, the iPhone successfully booted up.
  • All functions were fully restored.

If your iPhone, such as the iPhone 12 Pro Max, experiences a sudden black screen and fails to power on, try a restart first.

If the issue persists and the phone remains unresponsive even after charging, it is likely a hardware problem. We recommend seeking assistance from a reputable third-party repair shop or contacting the official customer support for further evaluation and repair.
