This week Apple company without special hype introduced a new model in the line of flagship smartphones. IPhone 7 in the (PRODUCT) RED Special Edition version did not change with the characteristics, but got a case of bright red color.

The first buyers praise the new coloring of the iPhone 7, but are unhappy with the chosen combination of shades. The fact is that Apple decided to make the front panel of smartphones in white. Many thought that the iPhone with a red body black frame would look better. The author of the project JerryRigEverything showed how to fix this flaw.

Despite the fact that Apple strongly does not recommend users to disassemble the iPhone on their own, owners of "apple" technology do not stop. The enthusiast has prepared a video instruction on how to replace the white frame of the red iPhone 7 with the same frame, but black from another smartphone. If there was such a need, if you have the right tools, skilled hands and free time, you can try to solve the problem at home.

It is worth remembering that the disassembly of the iPhone terminates the warranty on the device and in the future to contact the service center for warranty repair will be problematic. Moreover, it is a rather laborious and scrupulous process, therefore, in the presence of the slightest doubt, it is better to contact specialists.

When replacing the white front frame of the red iPhone 7, it is worthwhile to understand that in this model of the "apple" smartphone the entire screen is one piece, and you can not replace the frame separately. It will be necessary to change the entire screen unit, since the glass is glued to the frame. In this case, the iPhone 7 is waterproof and if improperly assembled, the device will lose these qualities.

Before proceeding to a direct replacement, first you need to unscrew the front panel from the housing. Both parts are connected in the Lightning-cable area with two screws. Then, using a vacuum sucker, slowly and carefully unplug the display, not forgetting the lines that at this stage still connect the two parts of the smartphone.

The next step is the detachment of the screws, with which metal plates are attached, protecting the trains. When they are removed, using a plastic or wooden spatula, carefully lift the cables and disconnect the front panel.

Replacing the screen, we collect the parts in reverse order, and turn on the iPhone. If no mechanism is damaged in the process, all the components are correctly inserted into their seats and screwed, and all loops are connected, the device will turn on and start working.

It is worthwhile to understand: if you simply change the frame from the black iPhone with the Home button, after the download, you will see a warning that the Touch ID function is not available. For security reasons, the fingerprint module is attached to the motherboard.

You will need to use the virtual button.

To get around this limitation, you can put a white Home button from the original smartphone (as the author of the video did), or completely disassemble the iPhone and transfer to the red case the motherboard.

In any case, no matter how simple at first glance the process of self-replacement of the frame in the iPhone 7 seemed, if you have even a shadow of doubt, it is better to trust this business to professionals.
