Safety Precautions

  • • Always power off the device and disconnect from any charger before beginning a repair.
  • • Use an anti-static wrist strap (ESD) to prevent electrostatic damage to components.
  • • iPad batteries are lithium-ion - handle with care and never puncture or bend.
  • • Keep screws organized by step - magnetic project mats are highly recommended.
  • • Never force connectors. Use a spudger to gently lift ZIF, FPC, and board-to-board connectors.
  • • If the battery appears swollen, do not attempt removal yourself - contact a professional immediately.

iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) repair questions answered

The iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) shipped in 2015 as model A1584, A1652 and Apple publishes an official service manual for it, which is the document linked on this page. Every part we fit is a genuine Apple part. Our work is covered for one year on brand new parts and 180 days on pre-owned parts and board-level repairs. We are in Tampa, walk-ins are welcome with no appointment, and you can also book a mail-in repair from anywhere in the country.

What are the model numbers for the iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation)?

The iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) was released in 2015 and carries model numbers A1584, A1652, with the internal identifier iPad6,7, iPad6,8. You can confirm your exact model under Settings, General, About, next to Model Number. Quoting that number when ordering parts is the only reliable way to avoid a part that looks correct but will not fit, because Apple ships several variants that share an outward appearance.

Why does an iPad screen repair cost more than it looks like it should?

On the iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) the front glass and the display are bonded together as a single assembly, and the assembly is glued into the aluminium frame with strong adhesive. That means a cracked screen is a full display assembly replacement done with controlled heat, not a quick glass swap, and the battery underneath is also glued down. This is why a proper iPad screen repair takes real time and why an assembly done badly cracks again within weeks. We fit genuine Apple parts and reseal the frame correctly.

What happens to Face ID or Touch ID during a iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) repair?

The iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) uses Face ID, and the TrueDepth camera is paired to the Secure Enclave, so it has to be transferred from the original assembly rather than swapped in from another unit. Damage to that flex during a careless repair is the usual reason biometrics stop working afterwards, and it cannot be restored by fitting another sensor. We transfer the original biometric hardware as part of the repair so the feature keeps working.

Can the battery and charging port on a iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) be replaced?

Yes. The battery is a genuine Apple service part and is replaced by softening the adhesive and fitting a fresh cell, which restores full runtime on an iPad that no longer holds a charge. The iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) charges over USB-C, and the port sits on a replaceable flex assembly, so a worn or lint-packed port can be serviced on its own. If the iPad will not power on at all or was hit by liquid, the fault is more likely on the logic board than in the battery, and that needs a board-level diagnosis first.

If your iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) has liquid damage or will not power on, it needs a board-level diagnosis rather than a parts swap. Call us on (813) 444-5595 and we will tell you what we are seeing before any work starts.
