JCID Dot Projector Flex for iphone XS A JCID Dot Projector Flex for an iPhone XS is a component used by professional technicians to repair the Face ID function. The flex cable works with a specialized JCID programmer, like the V1SE or V1S Pro, to read and write data from the phone’s original Face ID module. This process is necessary to fix Face ID after the original dot projector is damaged or replaced. How the repair works Original data is backed up: The technician first uses a JCID programmer to read and save the unique dot projector data from the broken phone. Data is written to the new flex: The saved data is then written to the replacement JCID dot projector flex cable. Installation: The new, programmed flex cable is installed into the iPhone. For some non-removal flex cables, no soldering is required, making the process easier. Face ID is restored: Once installed, Face ID should function correctly, as the phone now has the correct, original data on the new hardware. Key features Solder-free options: Some newer versions of JCID flex cables are a “non-removal” or “tag-on” design, which eliminates the need for advanced soldering skills. Programmer required: The flex cable does not work on its own. A JCID programmer is an essential companion tool for reading and writing the necessary data. Broad compatibility: While you would need an iPhone XS-specific flex for that model, JCID programmers and flex cables support a wide range of iPhone and iPad models, typically from the iPhone X all the way up to the 15 Pro Max and beyond.
