Iv got an iPhone 8 in, Iv not don't any board repairs on these yet, only on the X so far. This one is exhibiting what I'd probably class as a tristar problem, but they changed out tristar on the 8 for hydra.
The phone looks to have never been opened before and hasn't been damp, all the factory seal is still intact.
When the charge cable is plugged in nothing happens. The phone doesn't show any draw from the USB amp meter.
If I turn the phone off it will charge just fine @ 0.45amps (quite low) and now has 76% battery.
The customer said that from flat it would only charge to 20% overnight, but that was with the phone turned on.
Iv tried plugging in a new charge port but the phone displays the same behaviour.
Iv ordered in a couple of hydra chips, as I don't stock any 8 parts yet other than a screen.
If this was a 7 I'd probably change out tristar, Tigris, mosfet which would sort it 99% of the time but this new charge circuit is quite different.
