OnePlus 12 repair keeps coming back — what am I missing?
Hey everyone, I’ve been dealing with a recurring issue on the OnePlus 12 repairs lately. It seems like I can get the screens replaced just fine, but a few weeks later, customers are coming back with issues like ghost touches or display flickering. I’ve tried sourcing my parts from different vendors, but I’m starting to wonder if it’s a quality control issue or something I’m overlooking during the installation process. I make sure to test the screens before handing them back, but clearly, there's something going wrong down the line. I’ve also started using the repair shop software we have to track these specific repairs, and I’m noticing a pattern where the same models are coming back more often than others. It’s really frustrating because I want to provide quality service, but I don’t want to keep losing money on repeat repairs. Any insights on what to check for or alternative suppliers would be greatly appreciated!

I totally understand your frustration with the OnePlus 12. I've encountered similar issues, and in my experience, it often comes down to the quality of the screens we're sourcing. I recommend trying out a vendor like MobileDefenders or iFixit; they tend to have more reliable parts. Also, make sure you're using the right adhesive and properly curing it during the installation. I've found that taking extra time with the adhesive can significantly reduce issues like ghost touches. It's worth it in the long run to avoid repeat jobs and unhappy customers.
I can relate to the problems you're facing. One thing that helped me was adjusting my workflow. Make sure you're thoroughly cleaning the connectors and using a microscope to inspect the screen before installation. It might also be helpful to run a full diagnostic check on the phone after the repair, just to ensure everything is functioning properly. Sometimes, doing a software reset can fix issues that seem hardware-related. If you’re looking for parts, consider checking out AliExpress, but be aware of the potential quality variability.
