Walking through a ghost town and admiring the dilapidated houses’ tin roofs.
Crawling through an abandoned complex long gone and deciphering the graffiti pasted on over time.
Driving my Suzuki Samurai along old Native American trails.
Soaking in the concentrated, complex culture of an old city center.
Standing in absolute darkness and silence in ancient lava tubes.
Eating fresh made gelato for the third time while watching the sun set.
==========
These are a few moments of life I have enjoyed.
I was born in Shanghai, China. My family headed for San Francisco when I was five, and that's where I grew up most of my life.
I wanted to be an inventor! So, I pursued electrical engineering (I really should have chosen mechanical engineering, but that's another story!) I got schooled hard at Cal Poly and finally left with a MS in EE with a focus on mechatronics and control systems. Along the way, I also found my life purpose and my best friend.
- Playing, explaining, and promoting modern board games.
- Taking stuff apart (not necessarily to put back together)- because I'm curious!
- Playing violin in ensembles. I am currently involved with Cal Poly's Arab Music Ensemble.
- Going on adventures! Visiting places I haven't been before!
- Trying out new foods of different ethnicities.

iPhone 5s battery & home button replacement
iPhone 5s Home Button
Hi Joselo,
You do not need an original, but that is probably the best quality. The original screen is AMOLED. There are also OLED and LCD replacement screens. These will not be as bright as the original AMOLED panel.
Hi Will,
It depends on how deep the tool has been inserted. If it was deep enough, it may have damaged that microphone. You can probably test it by making a call, or doing an audio recording.
Hi Simon,
Sorry about your troubles! We will update this guide as soon as we have a chance!
Hi Albert,
It’s hard to tell. Most phone functions will probably work, but you may start getting quirky problems.
Hi Diego,
If your replacement part did not come with the plastic holder, you will have to transfer the old one onto the new frame.
I’ve updated the step to include the comments. Thanks for the suggestion!
Hi Max,
If you look at the first image in step 7, you’ll see that the USB-C connector is part of the motherboard. If it breaks, you can possibly replace it by micro-soldering a replacement part, but this is much harder than swapping and replacing a small daughterboard. The other solution would be to replace the motherboard which it is attached to.
Can you check if your original battery is actually thinner than 3.3 mm? If so, I’ll need to look into the guide to see if something needs to be fixed.
Hi Elmer,
It is sold as a kit here. Otherwise, you can try searching for it online. It’s an IcyDock 2.5" to 3.5" Adapter.
It depends on if the seal around the speaker grille is torn. As a reality precaution, the older the phone gets, the less it’s likely to retain its IP rating.
