Step 3: If step 2 does not pass, check for damaged parts in the front end circuits (C056, C057, C058,
L056, L057, L058, R051, R052, R053, J056, J057, C051, L051, L052, FL051, C072, L072, C8501,

C8500, C8505). If any damage or soldering issues, the part should be replaced or resoldered.
Step 4: If Step 3 does not resolve the problem, enable GPS for a C/N0 measurement in FTM mode
and check the voltage on R8500 and R8510 to make sure they are 1.8V. If they are not 1.8V, check
for part damage.

Step 3: If Step 2 does not resolve the problem, check if there is opening gap between metal and
plastic in the region indicated below. If there is a gap, replace the rear housing with a good one.
Step 4: If Step 3 does not resolve the problem, check if components RefDes = C479, L474, L473,
L472, C477, L471, C476, L476, L477, C480 and tuner (U471) are placed correctly on PCB. If all
bands on the antenna failed, it is likely the tuner is not working properly, please check these
components too: C472, E471, C473, C475, E472, C474, and C471.
