      Apple has refused to provide the calibration tool for the sleep sensor to independent repair people.

      Not only those who want to repair it themselves, but those who want to have it repaired by a third party whose best interest is not claiming that the phone is irreparable and that the customer should buy a new one.

        Yeah, not to mention Apple’s high repair premiums. It’s still not very visible to consumers when they get and use an Apple product though.
