1 Boot Looping after firmware upgrade
Hi
I have an iPhone 7 Plus which didn’t have any known physical issues up to now. The other night I installed the latest Apple software on my phone and then straight after the attempted software update (big mistake!) my iPhone went into a continuous boot loop where the Apple logo is constantly displayed.
i took the phone to the Apple Store Genius Bar and as I guessed they were just following a set script in terms of the useless help they try to give customers. they advised I either update the software or restore the phone which wipes all content. Restore is not an option for me as my data is not backed up so after trying the update option and waiting 20 mins for it to complete, turns out it failed to
resolve the boot loop issue.
i took the phone to my local iPhone repair shop who
talked a lot more sense and they said I need to get the ic chip repaired but I wanted to check with any of you who have had the same issue if this is the correct thing to do?
thanks
Это хороший вопрос?

If you’re an Apple iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus owner, there’s a new problem you should be aware of- “audio IC disease” (also known by some as “loop disease”). It’s a fault with the audio IC- or “audio chip”- that causes various symptoms including problems with audio during voice calls, Siri not hearing your voice, greyed out voice memos icon and a greyed out loudspeaker icon during calls.
(It should be made clear that this issue doesn’t affect all audio functionality. It’s quite common to have these problems with calls and Siri while (e.g.) you can still play an MP3 music file on your iPhone).
The phone also takes much longer than usual to boot.
