This problem error is usually caused by outdated iTunes or software on the device you have it connected to or a faulty charge lead. Try updating or restoring it on a different device with an updated iTunes and IOS or OS. Also use a different charging cable.

Replace the screen again and purchase a good screen protector. There is not much else you can do.

There would be one more thing you can look at and that is the connector on the logic board. Check there is no damage to the pins; you might need a magnifying glass to check properly. Other than that it will cost you money as the next step would require a reputable repairer to check the diode readings of the connector to see if there are any open or shorted lines plus check to see if it is getting power. This is not easy as you need the connectors connected and the camera app open.

You should be able to do this as long as you get the two connectors to fit properly. A word of warning. ·         Install a new battery Do not attempt to use no battery or the battery you originally had. This is an old phone and you don’t want to take the risk of a faulty battery sending error data to the CPU, it could cause the phone to want to update. This scenario would probably be a deal breaker if your storage is near full.

If the phone has been bent there is a good chance of broken traces and or cracked solder balls under either of the two audio IC’s or if you are unlucky enough the CPU.  If you have ruled out parts this would be the next road to go down.

I think it could be coincidence that this happened after a battery change. Your symptoms are of a Wi-Fi chip that has a short under it. This would be a costly repair. It would be more economical to upgrade your phone.

First I would suggest installing a new battery. If iTunes still gives you errors while trying to update I don’t think there is much more you can do except replace the dock connector and charging cable. If you had a faulty battery for some time it could have filled the space where error logs are stored that is why it is telling you to do a restore. It will not update when the error log section is full.

An iPhone XS that boots but restarts every few minutes is most likely caused by a faulty battery or dock connector.

On the IPhone 6s plus there should be three flex cables coming of the screen. ·         Front camera assembly ·         Digitiser ·         Home button. On the 6 plus there are four flex cables coming from the screen.

The phone is not recognised by the computer because of the USB restriction. You will need to put the phone into DFU or recovery mode and do a restore. This might be difficult if you say the volume buttons are not working.
