Face ID Repair

Repair biometric sensors, dot projectors, and true-depth camera logic safely.

Face ID Repair

Service Overview

Face ID failures ('Move iPhone higher/lower' or 'Face ID is not available') occur when the dot projector, infrared camera, or flood illuminator gets slightly wet, dropped, or desynchronized from the secure enclave. We perform precision component-level repairs to restore biometric security without losing face tracking capabilities.

Workflow

How We Fix It

Our micro-level step-by-step diagnostic and hardware repair process.

01

Enclave Diagnosis

We run hardware validations to check if the secure enclave is communicative with the TrueDepth sensor.

02

Dot Projector Desoldering

Under a microscope, we extract the dot projector flex cable from the bracket.

03

Micro-chip Bypass

We read the calibration token from the original chip, write it to a new flat flex programmer, and desolder the sensor glass.

04

TrueDepth Realignment

We reflow the glass, program security hashes, and realign the optical prisms.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did my Face ID stop working after a drop?

The optical prisms inside the dot projector are extremely fragile. Drops can crack the alignment glass, or liquid can short out the flood illuminator.

Can other shops repair Face ID?

Very few. Face ID is cryptographically locked to the motherboard. Only certified technicians with micro-soldering programmers can execute this repair.

Face ID got disabled after light water splash. iPhonix desoldered the sensor, cleaned it, and realigned the projector. Face unlock works perfectly now!
