An iPhone 15 Pro Max came into our workshop with an Apple Pay problem: NFC payments no longer worked and Apple Pay could not be set up. To confirm the fault, we first ran the official Apple Diagnostics using the Mobile Resource Inspector. The result was clear: all components such as Battery Condition, Bluetooth, Camera and Cellular Baseband passed, but Apple Pay showed a red error (see photos). This confirmed that the problem was hardware-related and not a software issue. Ins

MacBook Pro A2985 came in dead. After inspection it turned out the charger chips were shorted due to a faulty cable or charger. The charger chips are location-locked and encrypted, so we transferred them from the same location on a donor board to the faulty board. MacBook is back to life, with data still intact.

MacBook Pro 14" M3 A2981 came in dead no power and no boot, owner needed important data. After inspection found the faulty component and replaced it. Data is safe and the MacBook is back to life.

Recently, an iPod Classic 2nd generation came in with a remarkable story. The owner had connected the device to an old MacBook via a FireWire connection. Immediately after establishing that connection, the drive was wiped and all data was gone. A challenging job, since modern workstations no longer come equipped with a FireWire port. To gain access to this iPod, we developed our own custom interface that allowed us to bridge the iPod's FireWire connection to a USB-C port. Onc

This MacBook Pro 16" with M1 chip (model A2485) came in for data recovery. The device showed no signs of life: no display, no sound, no response to the power button and no magsafe light. Completely dead. For data recovery on Apple Silicon MacBooks, logic board repair is often the only way, because the SSD chips are tied directly to the processor and can't be read out separately. The data is encrypted and stored on the board itself. After disassembly, I inspected the logic boa

Shattered screen on an iPhone 17 Pro Max — replaced with an OEM Apple display and calibrated in under 30 minutes. Device back to perfect condition. Same issue? Book an appointment directly on our website: nodefix.nl

MacBook Pro 13'' A2289 Data Recovery (Board ID 820-01987) – Defective CPU, Data Recovered A customer came to us with a MacBook Pro A2289. The symptoms were classic for a defective CPU: the trackpad still clicked, the charging voltage was fine, but no chime and no boot. The device simply did nothing anymore. Because the customer urgently needed the data, we got to work right away. We replaced the logicboard and transferred the NAND chips, the T2 chip and all other required com

A customer brought in a faulty automotive ECU with a defective CPU. Programming a new unit wasn't an option in this case — the vehicle-specific data and immobiliser pairing would have been lost in the process. At Nodefix, we transferred the original controller chip — including all onboard data — to a new ECU. This is chip-level precision work: the data stays intact, the vehicle pairing is preserved, and no dealer recoding is required. After the repair, the car started immedia

A customer brought in his DJI Mini 4 Pro with a broken rear arm — a common result of a hard landing or collision. The arm was fully snapped and beyond repair. At Nodefix, we replaced the damaged part with a brand new, official DJI replacement arm. No aftermarket parts, no compromises — just the original quality the drone was built with. After the repair, the drone was thoroughly tested and flies perfectly again. Damaged your drone? Drop it off or get in touch — we'll take a

An iPhone 12 came in looking pretty rough after a serious drop. During inspection under the microscope it became clear what had happened: the power management IC — the chip responsible for power distribution across the logicboard — had been completely shattered by the impact. The fix: carefully remove the damaged chip and solder a new one. After the repair the device powered up immediately and all data was fully intact. Photos, contacts, files — everything could be transferre

An iPhone 16 Pro Max came in with one symptom: completely dead. No response, no charging icon, nothing. After a thorough inspection we found that multiple charging ICs on the logic board had failed — caused by a counterfeit USB-C cable or low quality charger. Cheap accessories often deliver unstable voltages, which can be fatal for the sensitive chips inside modern iPhones. We replaced three components: the serialised USB-C data controller chip, the ROM chip and the USB-C cha

An iPad Pro 11 A2228 came in for repair. The device was completely dead and not responding at all. After inspection, we found that the charging IC CD3217B12 was defective. We replaced the faulty chip with a new one and programmed the chip data correctly. After the repair, the iPad came back to life — with all data preserved. Repair is often far more affordable than the service offered by the manufacturer. In many cases, manufacturers choose to replace a faulty motherboard or

Today we received an iPod Classic A1238 for a battery replacement. These vintage iPods require a careful and precise approach — and that’s exactly what we stand for at Nodefix. We gently opened the back cover without causing any damage to the housing. The old, worn 616-0227 battery was then replaced with a brand-new, fresh battery, giving this classic music player many more years of life. Is your vintage iPod Classic no longer working as it should? Does the battery drain quic

Another MacBook Pro A1706 with the well-known Flexgate issue has been successfully repaired. The device showed a dark Apple logo on the display but had no backlight. The damaged flex cable was carefully removed, and a new, reinforced flex cable was precisely prepared and soldered onto the original display cable. The issue has been fully resolved without replacing the entire screen. This repair provides a permanent solution to the problem. Repair takes around 60-70 minutes.
