<title><![CDATA[iPad 7 Wi-Fi: TG0B Kernel Panic]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Got the same issue</p>

<p>I replaced the battery but still getting the TG0B error. The battery level is fluctuating as well. I checked the capacitor C8923 and I got diode resistanc f .883 not sure if this is too high. FL8900 is good as well. What Iam not sure is the Q8900 which for BATT_SWI_FL.</p>

<p>The C8922 which is for BATT_NTC is ok as well it go straight to PMU chip. I tried to jump a wire from the battery terminal directly to batt_ntc n C8922 in case the connection going to the battery is loose but still getting TG0B ... This issue is a pain.</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad 7 Wi-Fi: Missing TG0B causes kernel panic, plus fluctuating battery level]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>The problem began 2-3 weeks ago while the device was charging.</p>

<p>Reboots are not spaced evenly at 180s apart, which probably indicates the sensor is responsive at times and not at others? At the beginning of the issue, I could sometimes use it for 5-10 minutes without rebooting, and sometimes less. Charge level fluctuates around 10-20% on each reboot and just randomly when unlocked. The reboots got more frequent and regular over time. Last night it seemed the iPad was charging very slow.</p>

<p>I took it for repair today,</p>

<p>They replaced the battery and the issue persists.</p>

<p>I've read TG0B is an NTC thermistor in the battery.... what could be the next steps? Any possible issues in the measurement circuitry?</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Pro 11" 3rd Gen: Ipad Pro not charging or recognized]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>I'm having trouble with my iPad Pro 3rd gen, model A2377. It suddenly stopped charging. I've already replaced both the battery and the charging port, but the issue persists.</p>

<p>It seems to charge very slowly when in DFU mode, but it's not recognized by my computer. I'm really stuck and could use some help.</p>

<p>Has anyone experienced something similar or have any suggestions on what I should try next? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Pro 11" 3rd Gen: Charging detected but very slow + distorted speakers + one-sided audio]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I recently worked on an iPad Pro 11&quot; 3rd generation and replaced several parts:</p>

<ul><li>Chassis (housing)</li><li>Display</li><li>All 4 speakers</li><li>USB-C charging port</li></ul>

<p>After reassembly, I’m now facing multiple issues:</p>

<ul><li>Charging is detected but extremely slow (battery percentage barely increases)</li><li>All speakers are heavily distorted (on all corners)</li><li>USB-C audio only works on one side (only one earbud)</li></ul>

<p>The USB-C port is brand new and properly installed.</p>

<p>I double-checked all connections and flex cables, nothing seems out of place.</p>

<p>Has anyone already encountered this kind of issue after a repair like this?</p>

<p>What could be causing it?</p>

<p>I was thinking about something related to power management (PMIC / charging IC or maybe a damaged power line), but I’d like to hear if others have seen similar symptoms.</p>]]></description>

<p>I got an <a href="https://www.ifixit.com/en-eu/products/ipad-7-8-battery" target="_blank" class="product-link">iPad 9th gen WiFi battery replacement kit</a>. I tried using iopener multiple times as instructed. I even used a blow dryer directed the heat towards the display in a blanket. The display didnt budge at all!</p>

<p>Is it possible to use the adhesive remover that came with the kit and put it along the display? Is there anything i should know about this? like would it ruin the device or the display if i am still unable to open the display?</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Pro 11" 4th Gen: iPad Pro 11" 2022 does not charge. The connector has been replaced.]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>The iPad periodically did not charge and stopped charging at all. I disassembled it and charged the internal battery. The iPad turned on and works fine except for charging and data transfer via cable. I replaced the connector. I examined the old one carefully and I do not rule out that the contacts on it were damaged and shorted out. With the new connector, the iPad also does not want to charge. I checked the USB-C tester and I see that the VBUS line is faulty, but I do not have a diagram to trace the path of this line and decide on further repairs.</p>

<p>Voltage on the port is 5V, current fluctuates around 0.2A.</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Pro 12.9" 5th Gen: ipad not turning on or charging for weeks]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>It's been a few weeks since it randomly died.</p>

<p>The battery was full one day and the next morning it wasn't responding to anything. The battery has never actually emptied literally overnight without being used for me (at least not with this ipad). And yet in the morning when I went to turn it on, it's like it wasn't charged for years. It was around 70% charged the night before.</p>

<p>It would not turn on <em>at all</em>, not even the battery logo.</p>

<p>There isn't any visible damage, it didn't fall or something similar. It simply died in the 8 hours when I was asleep for no reason. Didn't move a centimeter. I've never had problems like this with it.</p>

<p>I've tried many different cables and adapters including the original ones and plugging it to my laptop. I let it charge for days at a time with no response.</p>

<p>It's very important to fix it as it's what i use to draw and all my art is on it.</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Air 2: Stuck in recovery loop after attempted update.]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>After the release of ios11 I backed up my iPad on my MacBook Pro and downloaded the update. The update process started, and then the iPad restarted and I got an error in iTunes. The iPad stayed at the Apple logo and wouldn't change. No big deal, I thought. I just backed up. Just restore and go from there.</p>

<p>I did a hard restart, and the iPad loaded to recovery mode with the plug into iTunes information. I plugged it in and iTunes prompted me to restore or update. I tried updating again,  which returned with an error 9, and the iPad just restarted to recovery. I tried restoring from a Windows computer with the newest version of iTunes with the same error. Created a new user on my laptop and tried... same error.</p>

<p>Then came DFU mode. iTunes recognizes the iPad, restore starts. The iPad restarts and gives the Apple log and an empty progress bar. iTunes says verifying update, then the iPad restarts, and I get error 9 in iTunes.</p>

<p>At this point I've gone through everything I can find in forums for suggestions, and have even tried some of the apps that claim they can fix these issues. All with no success.</p>

<p>The iPad is cared for pristinely, and has been working flawlessly until this update. Is it bricked for good at this point? Hoping not... can't really afford to replace a perfectly good device.</p>

<title><![CDATA[iPad Air 6 11": panic full sensor array 0x200000]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello everyone, I hope you can help me to find the problem in my ipad air m2 11 wifi, my ipad has just been exposed to liquid, at that time I put my ipad air in a plastic bag, then I didn't realize that water had entered my plastic bag, and the water managed to enter the gaps in my ipad so that my screen background became full of water and restarting started</p>

<p>after that incident I tried to replace the screen and clean the water or corrosion inside my ipad, I looked at the logic board there was no corrosion (but don't know about the condition of the other parts), after I replaced the screen, the case remained the same, namely restarting every 2-3 minutes, and my ipad before turning off to restart, my ipad screen seemed to freeze in place for a few seconds then displayed a pink screen then turned off, does anyone know this problem? this is my full panic, thank you</p>

<p>For example, if the flexible sensor on my iPad Air 6 m2 11 inch WiFi is damaged or torn, can I use a spare part from the iPad Air 5 m1 WiFi to install it on my iPad Air 6 m2 11 WiFi? Is that suitable?</p>
