How to get my iPhone 7 out of bootloop bootloop

Hi,

i bought an iPhone 7 about a year ago with the intention to change the housing as I had successfully done previously.i replaced the housing albeit with a few hiccups, until I turned it on. It is in a continuous bootloop until I power it off with the volume down and power button. I replaced the dock connecter and it booted but my Taptic Engine stopped working (wish I left it now). I discovered that the phone only boots if I have installed the dock connected temporarily on the top of the logic board. But if put the working dock connecter under the logic board as it should be it doesn’t boot just loops

Can anyone give me some help?

Everything is appreciated?

im guessing the charge port flex isn't connected properly, it`s easy to not get it square with the connector which results in it not seating correctly, apple though have left two white dots on the shell which need to be aligned with the two holes in the charge port flex, get these lined up and it makes connecting it a breeze. make sure the connector is flush and not sitting proud at one end or you endup with the problem your having.

That’s my problem. But I’ve changed the housing with a third party one. And now when I connect the lightning dock it just sits up at one end

So I can’t see the dots

I haven’t updated this in a while but I ended up sending it to a warehouse I have a connection with and they seated it properly. The connector was as said above not placed properly and just needed to be put in the correct place. Thanks for all the help!

You may have accidentally damaged the Lightning Flex during removal. Closely inspect it and look for signs of damage such as a tear, connector damage or exposed traces. Conversely, look at the logic boar das well, particularly in the the area near the Lightning Port connector.

It works when it’s not set in place so it’s not the connector. And I’ve tried 4 connectors and they all work when not in place
