hi everybody,

does anybody know what went wrong if there is 0.0V on the capacitor instead of 1.8v ???

wait were u honestly dumb enough to attempt a hw unlock after there being multiple ways of bringing down the bootloader and unlocking w ziphone?!

PLEASE REPLY BACK< im completely shocked u posted a thread about HW unlock have u been under a rock dude?

lib

ps u have 82 posts?! and i do too?! how in the world do u have rep power?! please gimme some of that power

hahahaha i'm living in a cave w/o internet
no way man!
i've done the HW unlock about 2 month ago.
and i still sit here with a brick

so do u have an idea whats wrong with my capacitor?
if not then u know why ur rep power is zero.....like my capacitor hahaha

anybody else have a solution for this? should i use an external power source?

greets

gstar

no clu dude, sorry for bein an ass lol umm yea no shot, i was never brave enough to do it. I thought about it, then looked at the steps n i bailed haha noo thankyou! hope someone can help u sorry

hi,

so can anybody tell me what its about if there is no power on the capacitor?

anybody please?

change the capacitor if the capacitor not working. what do u expect from no power on the capacitor?

Or send back to apple store...

That is the most simple way

Gstar,
There is another 1.8 V capacitor on the commboard, I used to make the testpoint with that one because it is bigger than the one suggested by geohot and so it's easier to keep the needle on it . If you can measure voltage, you should find it somewhere toward the lower extremity of the commboard.
Good luck!

Hi RaduQ,

i have found these capacitors. there is one with 1,5V. do you mean this one?

Gstar,

did u break the line of A17?

maybe. but i've checked the trace with the volt meter and it seems to be ok. perhaps the circuit is closed by the other side...i dont know. i used conductive paint also. but i think the best way is to solder the trace. i'm looking for a new commboard at the moment. question: does swapping the commboard change the imei and iccid of the iphone?

anyway even if the trace is ok the capacitor has no power. i think thats not a good sign.
