Your iPhone 17 Pro broken? Repair it, don't replace it!
The iPhone 17 Pro is a true tech beast. With its (hypothetical) A21 Bionic chip, its new-generation titanium chassis, and its Pro camera system that turns night into day, it's more than just a phone. It's a creation tool, a mobile office, a window to your world. But let's be honest: even titans can fall. One moment of carelessness, and it's disaster.
Whether it's a cracked screen, a battery that no longer lasts the day, or a fussy charging connector, a damaged iPhone 17 Pro can be a major source of frustration. But why replace it when you can repair it? At iLevante.com, we believe in the power of repair. It's economical, ecological, and incredibly satisfying. This guide is your starting point for diagnosing hardware faults and finding the exact spare part for your iPhone 17 Pro.
💔 iPhone 17 Pro Replacement Screens: The Ultimate Guide
The most common fault. The number one enemy of any smartphone: the drop. A cracked, scratched, or non-displaying (black screen) iPhone 17 Pro screen is the number one problem. But "changing the screen" isn't that simple. There are several qualities and technologies on the market.
Understanding Screen Technologies: OLED, INCELL, TFT?
The choice of replacement screen will have a direct impact on colour reproduction, power consumption, and touch responsiveness. Here's what you need to know:
- Original Screen (Super Retina XDR / AMOLED): This is the Holy Grail. Identical to the one installed by Apple. It offers perfect blacks, vibrant colours, full compatibility with ProMotion (adaptive refresh rate), and maximum brightness for HDR. If you want your iPhone 17 Pro back to its original state, this is what you need.
- OLED Screen (Hard or Soft): A very high-quality alternative. "Soft" (flexible) OLED screens are more resistant to knocks and closer to the original than "Hard" (rigid) ones. The colour reproduction and contrast are excellent, often indistinguishable from the original to an untrained eye.
- INCELL Screen: A technology that fuses the touch layer and the LCD (or sometimes OLED) layer into one. It's an economical choice, offering good touch responsiveness and a slim profile. However, the colour reproduction and brightness will be a step below OLED.
- TFT Screen: The most basic and economical option. This is LCD technology. The contrast will be lower (blacks will look greyish), the colours less vivid, and it will consume slightly more battery. It's a functional repair, but you'll lose the "Pro" experience.
At iLevante.com, we clearly state the technology of each screen so you can choose with full confidence.
⚡ iPhone 17 Pro Battery: Get Its Stamina Back!
The battery is a consumable. After a year or two of intensive use, it's normal to see its lifespan decline. The iPhone 17 Pro is equipped with a high-capacity Li-ion battery (let's imagine a model like the A3190) designed to last, but it's not eternal.
How to know if your iPhone 17 Pro battery is faulty?
The signs don't lie:
- Your iPhone suddenly shuts down when it still showed 20% or 30%.
- The battery life has melted away, forcing you to charge it several times a day.
- The phone is abnormally slow (Apple slows down performance to protect worn batteries).
- Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health. If the "Maximum Capacity" is below 80%, a replacement is advised.
- DANGER: If you notice the screen lifting or separating at the sides, your battery might be swelling. Turn it off and replace it immediately.
OEM Batteries: The Original Quality, Without the Logo
You'll often see the term "OEM Battery". What does it mean? OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. These are batteries made in the same factories, with the same specifications and the same quality controls as the original batteries, but they don't carry the Apple logo. It's the assurance of performance and safety identical to the original, without the brand's price tag.
Quick Guide: Changing the Battery (Intermediate Level)
Warning: This operation requires patience and the right tools. A punctured battery can catch fire.
- Heat: Gently soften the screen's adhesive with a heat gun or an iOpener.
- Open: Use a suction cup and plastic picks (plectrums) to separate the screen from the chassis. Open it like a book.
- Disconnect: Remove the metal protection plates and disconnect the battery's flex cable first (VERY IMPORTANT).
- Remove adhesives:Gently pull the adhesive tabs located under the battery. Pull slowly and at a low angle.
- Install: Place the new battery (with new adhesive strips) and reassemble everything in reverse order.
Technical note: On recent models, replacing the battery may display a "warning" message in the settings, indicating it's not a "verified" Apple part. This does not affect the performance of the OEM battery in any way.
🎨 Back Covers for iPhone 17 Pro: Colours and Replacement
The frosted glass back (or perhaps advanced "Ceramic Shield") of the iPhone 17 Pro is magnificent, but it doesn't like knocks. A crack on the back is not only unsightly, but it also compromises the device's water resistance.
Fortunately, replacement back covers are available in all the official (hypothetical) colours:
- Galactic Titanium (a deep space grey)
- Abyssal Blue (an intense midnight blue)
- Forest Green (a nature-inspired matte green)
- Stellar Graphite (the timeless classic)
How to change the back glass? It's complicated.
This is one of the most difficult repairs on a modern iPhone. The adhesive used is extremely strong.
- Method 1: The Complete Chassis (Recommended): The simplest solution is to buy a complete chassis, which includes the back glass already installed as well as the metal frame. You will then have to "transplant" all the internal components from your old chassis to the new one.
- Method 2: The Laser (Professional Level): Repair shops use a special laser machine to burn the adhesive under the glass without damaging components (like the wireless charging coil). The broken glass is then removed piece by piece. Do not attempt this without the proper equipment.
🔍 Essential Spare Parts for the iPhone 17 Pro
Beyond screens and batteries, a multitude of small components can fail. Here are the most sought-after parts at iLevante.com.
1. Earpiece Speaker (Internal) for iPhone 17 Pro
Problem: You can no longer hear people during calls, or the sound is very quiet and crackly. Info: This small speaker is located at the top of the screen. It often gets clogged with dust or damaged by moisture. WARNING: This part is often paired with sensors essential for Face ID. An incorrect replacement can disable facial recognition.
2. Ambient Light Sensor and Flash Flex Cable for iPhone 17 Pro
Problem: The screen brightness no longer adjusts automatically, or your rear camera flash won't fire. Info: This is a flexible cable (flex) that connects several vital functions. It's fragile and can be damaged during a screen replacement if you're not careful.
3. Earpiece Flex Cable for iPhone 17 Pro
Problem: Similar to the earpiece speaker, this flex cable manages the connection between the logic board and the earpiece/sensor assembly. Info: This is a key part for the top of the device. It contains the proximity sensor (which turns off the screen when you hold it to your ear) and the ambient microphone. A tear here is common.
4. Charging Port (Dock) USB-C / Thunderbolt
Problem: The phone won't charge, you have to "wiggle" the cable, or your computer doesn't recognise it. Info: This is the number one wear-and-tear part after the battery. From constantly plugging and unplugging, the port gets damaged. This part also includes the main microphone (the one you use for calls). Replacing it requires dismantling a good portion of the phone.
5. Rear Camera Module (Wide, Ultra-Wide, Telephoto)
Problem: Blurry photos, black spots on the image, the stabilisation "jitters" and makes noise, or the camera app stays black. Info: The iPhone 17 Pro's camera system is a technological marvel (with Lidar, advanced optical stabilisation...). It's also incredibly sensitive to knocks. Sometimes, only the sapphire glass lens is broken (which is a simpler repair), but often it's the sensor itself that's affected.
⚙️ And All the Other Spares...
The list is long! At iLevante.com, you'll find absolutely everything for your iPhone 17 Pro:
- Taptic Engine (Vibrator): If your notifications are silent and the phone no longer vibrates.
- Button flex cables: For Volume, Power, or Action buttons that no longer respond.
- SIM Card Tray: Lost or broken? We have all the colours.
- Individual camera lenses: Just the small outer protective glass.
- Complete screw kit: Essential, as the iPhone uses several types of screws (Pentalobe, Tri-wing) and losing them is easy.
⚠️ Diagnosis: When Hardware is NOT the Problem (Software)
As technicians, we often see customers who think they have a hardware fault, when the culprit is the software (iOS 21, for example).
"Ghost Touch": Is your screen reacting on its own, opening apps? Before blaming the screen, especially if it's not broken, try a "DFU Restore" (firmware update) via a computer. Sometimes, it's a simple software calibration error after an update went wrong.
Post-Update Battery Drain: Just updated the iOS and your battery is melting away? Don't change the battery just yet! After a major update, the phone spends 24-48h re-indexing all your files (photos, messages...). This consumes a huge amount of power. Plug it in overnight and wait two days before diagnosing a hardware fault.
