Note to you : the iPhone where you said the home button doesn't work is an iPhone 7 so the home button doesn't click by itself it needs to be powered on to give you the "click" since it's handled by the vibration motor.

Seeing that J3 put a smile on my face, it was the first phone I ever bought and it got me through college, such a great Samsung phone and honestly love those, they’re great budget phones.

Would definitely watch a video on the old iPod. Curious about the slab BlackBerry phone as well. The ones manufactured by TCL were actually pretty decent Android phones. I love the old Nokia phones that have character. Phones used to be so customizable and now all you can do is put a funky case on your black or white slab of glass. iPhone repairs are typically pretty easy, that's how I started repairing small electronics actually but as others have said if they're cloud locked you probably won't ever be able to do anything with them.

Found a similar deal on ebay a couple of months ago. 70 phones, 70 dollars, "broken". Among them, a fully working iphone X, a pretty new oppo phone, assorted others. About 50 of them worked overall.

Hi. The case with some of the iPhones is called a boot loop. All you have to do is open up the iPhone/iPod/iPad and disconnect the microphone/connect the microphone(if it wasn’t connected) and try again, it’s a simple error. I experienced it once with my iPhone XS Max

Just a heads up, besides the old ones all apple devices are quite likely to be iCloud locked. Reset doesnt remove the lock. There is not a complete bypass to an iCloud lock so the devices will not be usable (some partial bypasses exist but the functions you unlock with them are very limited, not worth it in my opinion). Keep this in mind if you are thinking about investing money and time to repair them.

You can't put an SD card in an ipod

A common problem with the early models in the Samsung Galaxy series (e.g. S3, S4) is USB port failure, which among other things prevents the phone from charging. I had short-lived success working around that by using wireless charging adapter pads (which used contact points inside the phone, bypassing the USB port), but later found it easier (and more reliable) to just swap batteries and use a dedicated wall charger … that is, until the phones themselves eventually died. Don’t know whether that bit of info might be relevant to your troubleshooting efforts, but thought I’d share it just in case. 🙂

For that iPod Classic 4th Gen 20GB, you're able to pry off the back and replace the old hard drive with a cheap flash mod/sd card, really easy it just plugs right in where the old drive was. No soldering. Sadly that screen seemed like it was missing a line of pixels

9:37 man I really hope you're right. I've got a couple of them, one of which I sometimes use as a dumb phone. The problem with these older phones is that in about 2-4 years from now 2G network will be shut down. When that happens these become glorified paper weights since all data transfer (not just internet but also regular calls and SMS) depends on 2G. So there could definitely still be a market for collectors but unless someone releases an upgrade kit with a modern antenna, which never say never but it's highly unlikely, in the near future these can't be sold as useable phones.

A tip to distinguish between the iPod Touch 5th and 6th gen is to look at the bottom right at the back of the device. If it does have the grey circle, it is 5th gen and if it doesn't it is 6th gen.

Where do you get the phones from?

6:01 that's classic 😹

Cool Video. I bought a black IPhone 4 at an estate sale right before COVID with charger for $5. It works perfectly and still does, it’s a keeper for me and it even still has its otter case which is also in good shape. Unfortunately its original owner was the older gentleman who passed on. The estate sale was hosted by a friend of a friend so it was easy figuring out the passcode.

My wife and I had those tiny Sony Ericsson Xperia phones. Mine was the model with the flip out keyboard and she literally had that exact model you have. Ah the nostalgia

I still got my Galaxy S2, but it's completely dead. Even after changing battery. Would love to hear if anyone experienced the same and was able to figure out how to fix it.

This is so relaxing to watch , 😊

I don't know a lot for most of them but here is some that I know that might help iPhone 5: very likely dead battery, screen is probably popping off because the battery is expanding iPhone SE: while the lcd might be dead it might also not be, I had it happen on my old iPhone 5 and it was fixed by reseating the screen connections and giving the connections a clean with a soft brush. iPod 4th gen monochrome: Sad iPod means dead hard drive. You can try flash modding with an sd card. Good luck on fixing them all.

Would love to see you do a TronicsFix style video with these and see if you can fix as many as possible. I thoroughly enjoyed your fixing and cleaning of the GameBoy you brought back to life and would to see you do the same with the phones. Fingers crossed you can make some money back!

it means u that the iOS that is installed is passwo0rd protected and that someone entered the wrong password incorrectly more than the designated times, on iOS 15. you have five tries before it becomes disabled. now to disable that security curtain, you need to plug it in to a pc, hold down the home key while pushing the power/sleep key, let go of the power/sleep key but still hold in the home key, and it SHOULD go in to default firmware update or DFU mode. you will need iTunes either for mac OS or iTunes for Windows to do the full recover.

I fix up tech for fun and often give most of them away. Even the really old stuff can be given to a poorer person or elderly in other countries. Feels good to give back.

You should try to do a video on the infamous "Playstation Phone" (a.k.a. the Sony Xperia Play). It's a pretty interesting piece of hardware and would make a great video!

Do a review of one of those using the cameras of all of them. So a different phone for every section of the video. Also; I am shocked by how many of these work! I feel like someone may have actually just collected them from electronics recycling bins. It's weird to see how many relatively modern phones are in there. The revamped 3310 featurephone is still for sale for 70 euros, and it's in there for 50. Pretty sure that's already more than half of your value! Also that's a blackberry leap.
