How much should a level 2 & 3 technician get paid?

I once worked had a repair shop and repaired iPhones all day. However, I never knew how much should a repair shop pay a level 2 & 3 technician if I wanted extra help.

I've been using the Art of Repair Labor Calculator, and it's been a game-changer. It's given me a clear picture of what it takes to sustain a repair shop and how much our hardworking technicians should be compensated. I'm truly grateful for this tool.

I would like to know if anyone else found the AOR calculator useful since it was useful to me. If so, I would like to build it out to make it much smoother and more efficient with the help of AOR.

What do you guys think?

Let me know if I should do it with this link: https://www.fixxi.repair/labor-calculator-waitlist

Question: how to print entire text messages

Hello there, I was wondering if anybody knew how I could print out full text messages. Not just take a screenshot because I have like 30+ pages to print. I have a Mac as well if that helps so if anybody has any advice, please let me know. Thank you so much. I have to take these text messages to court so it’s really important.

Data usage on my IPhone

I can’t explain somehow hotspot->other devices is taking lot of my data. Even though I have my hotspot disabled(off). Can you guys help? I think it might be my AirPods but that doesn’t make sense because they never used to take data.

Screen question

On screen replacements, theres a red film on the new screen, is that supposed to be removed?

No matter the brightness or white point reduced or whatever settings i adjust to try and correct the issue. Phone kind of has to be at a certain angle to get a nice image.

Thanks

Iphone resell business

Hello, I have very little knowledge about Iphone tech and repairs, but I thought about learning how to repair broken screens and batteries to be able to resell broken Phones for a profit. So I wanted to ask some qualified people what they thought of this idea, how hard would it be to learn and would it be worth it? Also, is it harder to repair newer models? I read something about the IPhone 15 where you can only use apple pieces wich sounds logical, but apparently you also have to link it to an apple serial number and pairing system or else it wouldn't work?

Thank you in advanced for your answers!

Text schedule app?

I am in India for business and my husband is at home in a time zone with a 12 hour difference. There are so many things that I want to show him or tell him in the moment but it would wake him up on the middle of the night. Is there an app that I can schedule texts to go to him later Automatically? Almost all the apps I’ve see are for blast texts for business. Other apps just send you a reminder to send the text. I know the iPhone has a short cut to schedule a text but it seems really limited to text only. (What is this 2001?). Thanks For any answers

Keyboard Lag

Keyboard Lag

I had Redmi Note 8 pro and after some time my keyboard started lagging in a way when I type nothing happens, then in a one moment it automatically types everything i had clicked before and it is quietly annoying. I bought a new phone, Motorola Edge 30 Ultra and it happens there also. This happens on instagram, messenger and a little bit less on whatsapp. What comes to my mind is maybe is android update or because I use apks for instagram, youtube, yt music. Any suggestions and help?

iPhone 14 Plus glitching

I’ve had my 14 plus for almost a year and I never had any issues until August, the lower part of the phone just glitches out frequently. It went away and came back today but there has always been a line on my screen since august. It doesn’t affect me touching the screen or anything. My phone is up to date on system updates, I haven’t dropped it in a long time, and I have tried restarting it over and over and over. I provided a video for reference but it’s just annoying and I

Wife's iPhone 11 Pro Max took a bath...

...in the washer(laundry). I'll try to keep it short, the screen was already previously cracked which allowed the water/detergent to enter. The phone wasn't responsive but with time (rice) the phone was able to boot. I purchased 2 different battery to keep it on but it auto reboots when it feels like it. The logic board looks good, no rust/corrosion that I can see but the lightening port doesn't function. All-in-all what I'm trying to do is salvage all of my wife's pictures which were not backed up in iCloud. Either it was never set to auto backup or (as she claims from one of her family members) that after every iOS update that backup feature turns off. My next step is to replace the lightening port to try and maintain a charge to keep the phone on enough to send the photos out or back up her iphone to icloud.

One more thing, though. Her iCloud backup process takes beyond too long and doesn't seem to be backing up. Her password is entered correctly and all, any ideas or different methods I can do to extract these pictures considering my limitations? Ty in advance.

Pixel 6 black screen but touch screen works

Hi, I dropped my phone and now it's black screen but it still works (I can still hear the notifications and answer calls by swiping a bunch of time on the screen). Am suppose to change phone in like 20 days, is there a way to get the data out of the phone without paying for a new screen ? Any screen mirroring things I've seen needs you to enable something in your phone which is impossible in my case.

Thank you !

iphone 13 screen issue

[help] I have one cracked iPhone oem screen and 2 mint condition OEM screens all of these screens are not original to the iPhone 13 that I have. Right now I have the cracked iPhone screen on the iPhone and it's working perfectly fine. I replaced it with one of the OEM mint screens and the phone screen started glitching out. Green lines coming in and out really fast or an entire green screen depending on how the screen is moved around. I thought I broke it when I pulled it out of a different iPhone but I was wrong. when I put it back on the original iPhone it worked perfectly fine. thought maybe it's a different 13 batch or something. Then I put on the other OEM screen and the same thing happened. But this time it was worse not only did the same glitch happened with the phone started heating up REALLY HOT and crashing with a panic log saying audio sector . I thought maybe the contact pins on top of the speaker is breaking the screen when it connects so I put tape over it and still the same issue. The problem is not with the screens. It's something is going wrong inside of my phone. I thought maybe the taptic engine pins so I took that out and still the same issue. I put tape over any pinss that make it to the screen and still the same issue I have never seen anything like this before on any iPhone. I don't understand why only one screen is working on my phone. Again the two oem screen im talking about work fine on different iPhones and only the cracked screen works on my main
