'Modding' a SE mainboard into a 5c body.

I‘d like to build a White 5c with white Face plate and SE Motherboard, a 5c Second Edition so to speak.

After some research and finding supply source for a White 5c front plate and Home Buttons (including “fake fingerprint“option) only few questions remain:

  1. Most of my research was on Google and finds have been of 5s parts into a 5c.
  2. Has the SE differences in screw or connections layout and types as compared to a 5s or are these the same ?
  3. Is it possible to install a fingerprint button into a 5c front plate and how to move over the assembly of board and fingerprint sensor without disconnecting and thus disabling fingerprint?

Did I overlook something substantial or is it, asides of fingerprint, really as easy as swapping the mainboard?

Thanks in advance for advise!

Update (02/24/2019)

Considering the other way around as well- am be easier with the Touch ID homebutton:

Using a SE and changing the screen assemblies plastic frame to a 5c frame, would buttons still line up, same with antenna gaps and mounts ?

A rear case, camera/ flash module board, the display frame and battery adhesive stripes may be all that is required to convert a SE into the lovely 5c‘s format.

Hello,

Your project is quite ambitious ! Actually, all parts of a 5C, 5S and SE are different. The display for example is really different, you can’t fit a 5S display into a 5C enclosure. Also, you can’t connect a 5C display on a SE mother board (although the display used in the 5S and SE models are the same, and you can swap them - good to know for future projects I guess).

Aside from the screen, even the buttons, the dock connector, the earpiece or even the cameras are not the same. These parts are specific to each model.

To sum up, your project is : putting all the iPhone SE internals into an iPhone 5c enclosure. This may be possible, but keep in mind that the screws to fix everything are not at the same place between these two.

Thanks for your response.

Sind of it is still unclear:

- is it the screen itself or the plastic frame of the display unit which is different in between 5c and s/se models ?

I know the screen ribbon cable on fingerprint screens is different, however as using a non-Fingerprint homebutton on a 5s is possible this should be no problem in case the fingerprint sensor does not fit or if disconnecting it for transfer should make the Secure Enclave inoperative.

- the Camera module of a 5c should plug into a 5s cable connection, I am however uncertain if the „driver“ used is different on a SE and would work with a 5c Camera and flash (same on front camera).

If need be I could possibly Dremel the openings required to fit a SE Camera and flash into a 5c rear casing.

- The screw positions on a 5c and a 5s are said to be identical ?

Adding on:

Earpeace and Hardware side switches may be different, but do they use the same physical connections and connections locations?

Since those work in a binary fashion with no embedded control routines the drivers Apple supplies to a SE motherboard should still be working if the plugs fit (and pin arrangement on those has not been changed ).

Thanks a lot for your initial reply, my followup questions are as I do not look for reasons to give up but want to map out obstacles upfront to make sure it can work.

Knowing Apple, im pretty sure that even if the physical position of the loudspeakers, buttons etc are the same on both iPhones, the screws might not me located at the same places.

Also, I don’t see the point of talking software here. You need to have each part of the SE to fit into the 5C housing, or you’ll have to loose some features. You can’t jam iPhones parts.

Finally, note that the screen itself AND the plastic frame are different in every single iPhone out there, to fit the hosuing perfectly.

The challenge here is to « mod » the inside of an iPhone 5C housing to make it handle iPhone SE internals. No part jaming is possible (except for screws and housing).

It takes a lot of effort and skill but manageable. I was actually able to manage it
