Greater than one weekWorked perfect! After installing I went from having no bars of WiFi at my house, to having full strength signal! It’s been about a month since install and still going strong!

> 3 dayThe product was well packaged and just what I needed to restore wifi range and GPS orientation to my wifes Iphone 6. I wish Id done it sooner. In the end it may have just been a loose connector on the old component that cause the problem, but for the price this was worth it. Be prepared for some extensive fine repair work removing and replacing fragile components. Dont attempt to replace this unless you have some confidence in your mechanical abilities.

> 3 dayIt helped to rebirth my iphone 6!!! My wifi and gps stopped working.... not at all, but I needed to be next to the router to get the wifi signal and the gps was not accurate at all. Don’t do the repair yourself if you are not trained in electronics or similar. I am an electronics engineer. You need to remove almost all the boards on the phone, which are very sensitive and delicate. So, you can damage tour phone easily. Now my phone is alive again!!!!

> 3 dayMy wifes iPhone 6 was having intermittent issues with location. Like Maps would show initial location, but not move with you as you drive. This fixed all the location issues, BUT be prepared to do some work to take the phone apart. This is basically located in the deepest part of the phone to get to. You can see my pic of all the parts I took apart to get to it. Kinda scary in there but its an old phone so I was prepared to be ok with failure if I broke something. The screws are very tiny and all different lengths and sizes, so you need to be very detailed.

Greater than one weekFixed my Bluetooth and GPS issues (suspicion that my WiFi signal improved as well) immediately after swapping out component.

> 3 dayThe GPS on my iPhone 6 had stopped working. It would only give a general location, instead of a very specific one. I read on-line about this antenna, and decided to give it a go. The price was good, and I had very little to lose. I followed the procedures to replace the antenna at iFixit, and managed to keep track of all the screws and parts during disassembly. (I recently purchased a silicone soldering mat which has lots of little wells to put screws into. It helped tremendously to keep the screws in order for reassembly.) When I got the logic board out, I found that the existing antenna had disconnected one of its connectors, so I am sure that I found the problem in my phone. However, I was not lucky. Instead of the connector coming loose, the entire connector had broken free from the logic board. The center piece of the connector was missing altogether, and at any rate I do not have the tools to re-solder the connector to the board. So I did not get a chance to install the new antenna, and my phone still does not have GPS. I was careful putting the parts back together, and everything else still seems to work as it did. The WiFi flex circuit that I received arrived in excellent condition, and when I inspected the original part side-by-side with the new one, the parts looked to be made of identical components, and the quality on the replacement looked equal to the original part. I am quite sure that if my phone did not have a broken connector that this part would have most likely fixed my issue.

> 3 dayThis worked great to fix my no wifi connection problem. It took me a little over an hour to install. I have taken the phone apart in the past to replace the battery, so I already understand how to take it apart which saved me some time. It helps to draw a diagram of your phone on paper and then put all the screw on the spots where you took them out of your phone.
