guys my fucking kid fell for this shit, what the fuck do I do? I raised her better than this...

you're expecting a woman to be smart
smack her across the face and tell her if she ever breaks another phone you won't replace it

Kill her, then kill yourself.

Send it to the Apple Store.
They'll probably flash a new OS on it.
Say goodbye to all of your data if you didn't back it up. Apple techs probably aren't smart enough to do that for you.

Her friends older brother convinced her it was real so she did it. She's freaking the fuck over here about it.

I hadn't heard about this until now. That is fucking amazing.

In all seriousness, I'd just wait for an official Apple statement on the matter, they will fix this it's their responsibility. Even if you're a fucking retard that does it.

My son fell for this same shit after his step brother convinced him to do it. Disconnecting the battery will remove power to the motherboard and force a clock reset.

DO NOT OPEN IT

Chances are it's still under warranty, take it to an Apple Store, they'll either fix it or give you a replacement. If it's a 6s there is a gasket around the screen you could fuck up
>>
>>52986101
She's scared that I'm going to get mad at her is all. I gave her my old phone for christmas and she doesn't want me to be mad at her.

I tried what >>52986086 said and it fixed it.
>>
>>52986138
You mean the rubber sealing thing? As long as you're not a retard it's not that hard to lift the screen and close again without making it that noticeable. I've never had an Apple employee open my phone in store anyway and I've had like 7 replacements. It is different here in the UK though I'll admit.

>>52986144
Prove it.
>>
>>52986194
There's a high chance of fuck up, and neo/g/ is full of autists. And it's still nice to have the warranty intact. But if you can replace everything yourself, go for it.

I just get tried of fucking about inside phones so I take them to store or tell people to buy a new one. Screws too damn small and glue everywhere pisses me off

Fucking dip, any good /g/ man would know how epoch/UNIX time works, and that disconnecting all power would clear the system clock and force a reset.

The only thing that fucked me up replacing stuff was the home button. Didn't know it's now paired to the chip since Touch ID was implemented. You can replace your home button but you better not do a restore, ever, or it's bricked. Good security feature I guess, but wish I knew before changing my screen and home button.
>>
>Assuming not bait
If you can, take the battery out.
If you can' take the battery out, take it to the apple store and have them take the battery out.
>>
How the fuck should they know this bricks your phone?
>>
>>52986255
Thank you.

>>52986297
Sorry anon. I was assuming it being Apple propriety HW it would just be full on bricked.
>>
>>52986367
Haven't had to replace one of those. when I watched WWDC the way they talked about it in the 5s launch, I assumed that they would be paired together and either a new one had to be made and paired, or the chip and button were both trash. Good security measure, they could have said something before everyone freaked out over error 53 though. I wonder if android does this as well

>>52986485
It is a good security feature, I think the home button and the storage are paired with the chip? Here I always take advantage of the "out of warranty replacement" service when worst comes to worst. but it's got fucking expensive now, ~£235 so fuck that. Had to do it recently when I realised I bricked it changing the home button and doing a restore.

I wasn't aware of the home button ID / chip / storage encryption, so before I took it in I was inside it fucking it up with a screwdriver scratching away so they couldn't get access my stuff, wouldn't have fucking bothered if I knew it was useless without the original home button.
>>
>>52986272
How is this even funny?

>>52985966
I'm actually kinda curious.
How does this fuck your phone?

It sets the clock to 0, which the OS treats as a clock failure.

The majority of our collective knowledge is just a fingering away and she never thought to check.
This is a lesson in healthy skepticism. Explain to her that she's a ding-dong and tell her to check before she does anything like that again.
No need to punish her for something so easy to fix.

Don't be a bad parent.

>It is a good security feature
It's not. Error 53 occurs on a completely voluntary action of the user after replacing the Home Button.

It's not a security feature, it is a bug.
>>
My wife's boyfriend fell for it too, had to but him a new one.
>>
>>52986681
>It sets the clock to 0
Only if you set the time to 0:00.00 01/01/1970 GMT.
Which chances are you won't. It's caused by the date rolling under to the end of the epoch for some reason.
>>
>>52986814
yeah I'm not even mad. I just explained to her to never do anything with a computer that she's really unsure of. Chances are I can fix it but It's much better for her to be cautious.

Leave the phone on the boot cycle until it runs out of battery.

Then try to turn it on until it no longer even tries to boot.

Then wait at minimum the amount of hours your timezone differs from GMT.

And recharge and turn it on again, should work.
>>
>>52986974
A replaced home button can work perfectly fine until you try update / restore the phone realises it's not the original hardware it was paired with. Makes sense seeing as how its a fingerprint scanner.

Show me evidence that this is a bug and not intentional.
>>
>>52985966
Can someone explain to me why this screws up the phone?
>>
>>52988672
That date is 0 in Unix time. For some reason being west of UTC e.g. in America it subtracts to compensate for timezone, which sets the time to a negative value.
>>
>>52988332
>A replaced home button can work perfectly fine until you try update / restore the phone
There's no logical reason why you would have to do one of these things for the device to realize that the original hardware is not there any more.

In fact, it already does, which is why it disables Touch ID.

They are kids, so dont worry. What you experience right now is a "kids learning experience" next time, they will not belive stuff like this. And if they do, remind them of today and they will probably not make the same mistake ever again.

I hate this fucking meme shit. You think it's funny making kids break their expensive phones? My wife's boyfriend's son fell for this shit, and I, that's right, me, had to pay for a new one. Buncha neckbeard faggots.
>>
>>52986681
It does NOT.

If you live in -UTC areas your iphone will be bricked.

that happens because it sets the time to 31.12.1969, which is nonexistant in Unix time.
