“Beijing iPhone Repair’s Richard is amazing, incredibly professional and a pleasure to do business with! I meant to write a testimonial on the site right away after he fixed my logic board and replaced the baseband of my 3GS, but ended up getting kind of sidetracked by my working 3GS again! I am so lucky that he lives in Beijing too!
I know people who have had devices fixed or unlocked by him in the past and have never heard a bad word said either about him or the service he provided. Just praise. Straight-forward and honest. The whole process was a real treat after having done business for so long in China…. =) I am recommending him to anyone I know who has issues with their iDevices!” — Ryan L, US expat in Beijing, China (dropped off his iPhone, baseband chip replaced a few days later)

“Wow! I have the toughest iPhone of all to work with, the iPhone 4 running 4.3.5. Richard patiently explained all my options, and within 15 minutes had my phone running on my new local SIM card. Very professional and knowledgeable. He left me with written material in case I ran into any problems in the future, but before he left he ran a number of tests to make sure all was working properly. Best of all, his fees are VERY reasonable. I would not hesitate you to use his services for any of your iPhone, iPod, iPad needs.” — James M, US expat in Beijing, China

They are still willing to guide me after I received my 3GS. A very trustable service provider.

Very pleased with Richard’s service. We communicated extensively… enough so that I felt I was starting to be a bother, but he was always courteous and forthcoming. The service I used was the one where he replaces the chip that had the iPad baseband on it, for my 3GS, with one that has an earlier, unlockable baseband. The phone was returned to me working perfectly, and this baseband downgrade allows my GPS to work, which was broken with the iPad 6.15 bb in place. All my data and apps were still in placed, too. Just turned it on, and started using it, when it came back. Bravo! — Michael H, US-based client (via mail-in service)

“Richard took my abused, long borrowed out and just gotten back 60 gb video iPod which I was afraid was ruined and restored it to perfect working order.
This is an iPod that I bought six years ago, lent to my younger brother for three years who treated it like shit before returning it to me, now it works perfectly again thanks to Richard.
Since he had to reset/restore the iPod, the music library I had on the iPod was lost. Richard is so fucking considerate and cool that he took the time to put 600 songs and 9 videos on my ipod before returning it, much of which I liked.
I think he actually took the time to look at the music and videos I had on my iPod before he restored it, then placed a bunch of stuff on there he thought I might like.
I had old Eminem on my iPod, he loaded up the newest albums. That’s dope.
tl;dr: Richard is the bomb. Honest, reliable and cool.” — Chad P, Canadian expat in Beijing

“Beijing iPhone Repair is very professional, and did an outstanding job! My iPhone 3GS had a cracked screen initially however the cheap replacement I bought was for the 3G.. and had a different plug (connector), which shorted out the main board. I thought all was lost for this phone but Richard did the repair for a very reasonable price and even kept me in the loop every step of the way! Once the board got back to the States, I looked over the board and couldn’t even tell one of the main chips had been replaced, it looked as good as out of the factory and worked as soon as I dropped it back in the phone!” — Teddy V, US-based client (via mail-in service)

“Beijing iPhone Repair was awesome! Richard was able to replace the chip in my phone and it works great. My modem firmware was 5.14.02 and going to iPad firmware would have slowed things down, so this chip replacement was great! The help I received from Richard was professional and timely. I would totally recommend anyone to see him and get their iPhone fixed by him.” — Jonathan W, US expat in China (via mail-in service)

“The Gevey Turbo SIM works great, even in the Netherlands. Accessing the network on baseband 3.10.01 is working fine. Using firmware version 4.3.2. Jailbroken and preactivated is stable, you only have to manually setup internet access on 3G (WiFi is no problem)” — Bart S, The Netherlands

In a matter of minutes – my brick iPhone 4 is finally alive!!! Thanks so much Richard. You’re awesome and very straight forward! Thank you Thank you!” — Betsy D, business traveller from Manila, Philippines

“beijingiphonerepair has great services provided by great staff. The service was on point. I have a good understanding of software jailbreak but needed a hardware fix this time. I actually had to ship my wife’s iPhone to them for a chip replacement from Shanghai. I was tentative initially sending such an expensive equipment away to someone I have not met. But after a conversation with Richard on Skype where he actually first asked me if I have considered a software fix which I can do myself.
Knowing that this is a person whose first instinct is to help put my mind at ease. And now with my iPhone back in my hands, all I can say is they deserve every glowing review they have received. Richard kept me informed every step of the process, from receiving the phone to getting the chip to installing the chip which is first class customer service. I placed a lot of trust in beijingiphonerepair and they delivered all the way.” — Zi, Expat in Shanghai (via mail-in service)

“Got all the problems solved and all questions answered. I required service related to iPhone jailbreaking/unlocking after I did accidental upgrade on my already jailbroken phone (do not repeat my mistake). It took Richard some patience to deal with; he made sure everything worked well. I am back to be a happy iPhone user. Help was very professional, efficient and very appreciated. Thanks!” — Maria F, Russian Expat in Beijing
***
“Richard was great! As someone fairly new to jailbreaking and the inner workings of an iPhone, I recently messed up my iPhone so bad that I thought it was beyond repair. However, I gave Richard a call and amazingly, he got it working again. He answered all my inquiries promptly and was willing to meet with me into the late hours of the night. He definitely goes above and beyond the call of duty. A great guy, great service and I would highly recommend his services to anyone! Thanks Richard!” — Tim M, Canadian expat in Beijing

“Richard graciously helped me with unlocking 3 iPhones the other night. One of the phones had some real problems, but he patiently kept with it. The coffee shop closed at 10pm, so we sat outside until 11pm till he got it working and tested. My hats off to him, he’s a real expert in his field, a skilled surgeon. So why take your iPhone to some country hic doctor who might not know what they’re doing, when paying for a little more you get a skilled surgeon, the Best. Thanks again Richard.” — Eric F, US expat in Beijing

“Richard has helped me with several different issues. He helped me replace the entire screen on an iPhone as well as helping me to jailbreak/unlock iPhones.
When only a tethered jailbreak was available for a new iPhone, he jailbroke it and explained that jailbreaks will be reversed if the phone is ever turned off. Then, when a new (untethered) jailbreak became available, he sent me a text explaining how to update to the new jailbreak.
Richard is punctual, patient, and his prices are great. Thank you!” — Lena A, US expat in Beijing

After buying my phone in China, I went back to the US for an extended stay and got a short term plan through AT&T, which resulted in my phone being relocked. After returning to Beijing, it was with my roomate’s recommendation that I try Richard’s service.

A very nice guy and great experience. — Kristiana, US expat in Beijing

Just got my US iPhone unlocked by Richard today and couldn’t be happier. He was thoroughly professional, punctual, knowledgeable and patient.

I wholeheartedly recommend him. — David A, British Expat who had recently moved to Beijing

“Richard was a pleasure to deal with. He handled my dead iPhone quickly and efficiently locating a problem the Apple Sanlitun store refused to even diagnose let alone fix: for that I would have to try Hong Kong they said. All said I am delighted to have it back working in record speed and minimal hassle. Highly recommended.” — Adrian B, British expat in Beijing

“I finally decided to do something about my broken iPhone3G. I considered going to Bai Nao Hui, but the prospect of dealing with the local Chinese repairmen – let alone finding the right place to go amongst all the “friend, friend” calls from various stalls – was daunting. After a quick Google search for an alternative solution I found Beijing iPhone Repair. It was a real pleasure to find such a well written and professional looking site.
I was able to meet Richard on a Saturday morning at the Starbucks in my building so it couldn’t have been more convenient. Richard quickly diagnosed the issue (broken LCD) and replaced it in less than 30 minutes.
While it may be cheaper to go to a place like Bai Nao Hui, I highly recommend Richard and BeijingiPhoneRepair. There’s just something comforting about working with someone so professional and who can come to an area near you. Plus I should be receiving an 18 months warranty. — Tim C, US expat in Beijing

“I found Richard’s site in TheBeijinger where I’ve found other services before, but Richard’s site was actually readable and had useful information. Richard downgraded my iPhone 3G from 4.0.1 to 3.1.3 while sitting in front of me at a Starbucks. It took less than an hour and he was chatting the whole time – I basically caught up on iPhone developments since the last time I checked earlier this year. Afterwards when I was using the phone, one particular aspect of the operations looked off. I contacted Richard, and he offered to come out to fix it. It turned out I was just not familiar with the particular Jailbreak he used, and it was not an issue at all. However, it was nice knowing he stood by his work. Very refreshing to have this type of door-to-door service and trustworthiness here in Dalu (Mainland China). I would without hesitation recommend Richard’s work to friends and will request his services in the future if I have iPhone repair or jailbreak issues.” — Steve S, US expat in Beijing

“I was new to Beijing and had many co-workers and friends tell me it’s easy to unlock an American iPhone (AT&T) in China. Well no body I knew, including the people who said it was easy, was able to get my phone working here in Beijing. I found and decided to call beijingiphonerepair.com, and Richard came provide assistance. He even came and picked up my phone where I live. It was only a few days later when Richard call saying that my phone was working and ready for use. After delivering my phone I could not have been happier with Richard’s work. Richard speaks English and understood what I wanted to accomplish. I don’t know much about basebands, firmware, unlocking and jail breaking…and in fact, I’m not too interested in understand these types of mobile phone attributes. Richard understood these attributes and put it all together for me. He even offered to give me support in the future. Richard gave me the service that I expected and the end result that I was looking for. I would recommend his service to anyone in Beijing (or anywhere!) in need of iPhone/iPod help!” — Oliver Moore (Seattle, WA), currently working and residing in Beijing

“When my iPhone 3G stopped working after getting caught in heavy rain last week, I took it to the Sanlitun Apple Store to it checked. It took three days just to get an appointment at the “Genius Bar.” When I finally was able to speak to a “Genius”they refused to even look at my phone because they claimed the Chinese iPhone is completely different from imported iPhones. Apple Store’s advice: go back to your country and have it fixed or buy a new phone.
On the same day I was lucky to come across BeijingiPhoneRepair.com online. They offered free pick up and a free diagnostic test. Hours later, they diagnosed the problem and emailed me a detailed report identifying the problem and a clear repair solution with quotation. They made every effort to save and clean damaged parts where possible, without charging for new parts. Their prices were extremely reasonable, and they even gave me a first-time customer discount, in addition to a 18-month warranty on the replaced parts. They even cleaned/replaced the small screws of my phone’s casing without being asked! My phone was repaired and delivered to me the following evening.
Their professionalism, attention to detail, honesty and friendly service are second to none that I have experienced in both the West and in Asia. I highly recommend them to anyone with an iPhone issue.” — Chris H, an expat in Beijing

“When my recently purchased iPhone fell out of my gym locker and the screen shattered, I was devastated. Since I bought it second hand, I knew there was no warranty, and being in China, I had no idea how I would find someone to fix it who could do it reliably and inexpensively and communicate with me in English. Thankfully, a Google search led me to Richard, who was able to fix my phone promptly and efficiently. It’s now as good as new. Thanks, Richard, for saving me from this major blunder! You’re a phone savior!” — Brittany H, an expat in Beijing

“After my daughter dropped her 120GB iPod Classic in a pool, I had no idea how it could be repaired. Water damage voids the factory warranty. I’m so glad I contacted BeijingiPhoneRepair in Beijing. Richard was not only able to replace the mainboard with a new one, he then updated the OS through the internet and tested the iPod to validate the repair. A lot cheaper than buying a new iPod! Thanks BeijingiPhoneRepair.” — Mr. Paul J, an expat in Beijing
