Most iPhones have a sensor on the power/flash flex called the mic2 sensor that will cause the phone to boot loop in three minute intervals if that sensor fails. I figure once you get into the panic logs, there's probably about a 90% chance you'll see a line saying something like, "missing sensor: mic2". Once you replace that cable, that should fix your boot loop issue.

Alisha (@flannelist) has written our definitive guide to kernel panics and it's definitely worth a look.

Assuming you are on a three minute reboot cycle, that's actually long enough to get in and catch a screenshot of the first page of the panic log, which is really all we need to verify the cause.

@sebastianfurber Actually, if your phone boots normally for that first three minutes, you can access the logs without a PC. Instructions are in the Wiki page I linked to.

If you had to transfer the charge port over, it can be a little tricky aligning the flex cable connector. Rebooting can be caused by a few things, a faulty or aftermarket charge port, or a damaged power or volume flex cable. If you can get it to connect to a computer, you can use this video to read the panic log to help pinpoint the cause of the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaJLYbtu...
