Memory Upgrade · what it looks like on Older iPhones
Want more storage (64GB → 256/512GB)
'Storage Almost Full' constantly
Boot loop (suspected NAND fault)
Full symptom details
  • You're constantly out of space — 'Storage Almost Full' — on a 64GB or 128GB iPhone and want more capacity without buying a new phone.
  • You want to expand a 64GB to 256GB, 512GB or 1TB by swapping the NAND chip.
  • The iPhone is stuck in a boot loop or won't get past the Apple logo, and diagnosis points to a failing NAND chip.
  • Storage errors, apps crashing on save, or photos failing to write — signs of a degraded NAND.
  • You bought a smaller-capacity model second-hand and want it upgraded.

How Older iPhones memory upgrade actually goes

Board-level micro-soldering at our Kepong HQ, typically 24–72 hours, and it's precision work. We remove the existing NAND flash chip from the logic board and fit a higher-capacity one, then re-program it with the phone's original identity data (syscfg) so that iCloud, Face ID / Touch ID and the phone's serial all keep working — done correctly, the iPhone treats the new larger storage as its own. The same process repairs a failed NAND that's causing a boot loop. Two honest points: first, this replaces the storage chip, so you must have a backup — the old data doesn't transfer and is restored afterward from your iCloud or computer backup. Second, it's intricate board-level work, so we're upfront about whether it's worth it for your specific model versus other options. We confirm the model, the target capacity and that your data is backed up before starting, and the diagnosis is free.

What we check first on your Older iPhones
  • Back up everything first (iCloud or a computer) — a NAND swap replaces the storage chip, so the existing data does not carry over and must be restored from backup.
  • Confirm the current and target capacity (e.g. 64GB to 256GB) — it sets the chip and the cost.
  • If it's a boot-loop, note whether it followed a failed update or happened on its own — helps separate a NAND fault from software.
  • Decide whether you genuinely need it — for some phones a cloud-storage plan or clearing space is simpler; we'll give you the honest view.
By Older iPhones variant

Memory Upgrade differences by variant.

iPhone X / XS / XS MaxBezel-less OLED + Face ID. First-gen Face ID flex is more exposed than later generations — drop damage often needs Face ID component-level repair at Kepong HQ.
iPhone XRBezel-less LCD + Face ID. Single rear camera — different parts tier from XS.
iPhone 8 / 8 PlusHome-button + Touch ID; LCD. Last home-button generation with wireless charging.
iPhone 7 / 6sStill serviceable but parts increasingly on order at smaller branches; Kepong HQ keeps the deepest stock.

Brought in my iPhone 13 after it took a swim in the pool. Two other shops said replace the phone. SPR Kepong ultrasonic-cleaned the board overnight and it's been working perfectly — that was six months ago.

Samsung S23 had the dreaded green line. Three shops said the whole OLED panel needed replacing. SPR Uptown did the green-line correction in 90 minutes. Warranty honoured, no pressure sell on extras.

Before you walk in.

Common questions. For unlisted cases, contact SPR support directly via WhatsApp.

Q.01Where can I get Older iPhones memory upgrade near me in KL or Selangor?[+]
└─ SPR has 16 walk-in branches across KL and Selangor — Kepong, Uptown Damansara, Puchong Kenari, Sri Petaling, Taman Segar, Setapak, Mahkota Cheras, Pandan Indah, Ampang, Mid Valley, IOI City Mall, Sungai Wang, Maluri, Equine Park, Taipan USJ, and Kuchai Lama. No appointment needed. WhatsApp us a photo of your Older iPhones first to confirm which branch has parts in stock for memory upgrade.
Q.02How long does Older iPhones memory upgrade take?[+]
└─ 24–72 hr at most SPR branches for Older iPhones. Walk in without an appointment, or WhatsApp us first to confirm parts at the location nearest you. All Older iPhones variants are covered: iPhone X · XS · XR · 8 · 7 · 6s.
Q.03What does Older iPhones memory upgrade cost in Malaysia?[+]
└─ We don't post fixed prices because cost depends on which Older iPhones variant (iPhone X · XS · XR · 8 · 7 · 6s), the parts tier you choose, and whether any secondary damage is involved. WhatsApp us a clear photo of the issue and the exact model — we send a free quote within minutes. No charge for walk-in diagnosis.
Q.04What warranty does SPR give on Older iPhones memory upgrade?[+]
└─ Every Older iPhones repair includes a 6-month warranty on parts and labour, honoured at all 16 branches across KL and Selangor. Bring the device to any SPR location for warranty work. Motherboard and water-damage repairs carry shorter warranties due to the unpredictable progression of underlying damage — we explain the terms before any work starts.
Q.05Will I lose my data when you upgrade the iPhone's storage?[+]
└─ The chip swap itself replaces the storage, so the data on the old NAND doesn't carry over — that's why a full backup (iCloud or computer) before the job is essential. After we fit and program the new chip, you restore your data from that backup. We won't start a memory upgrade until we've confirmed you have a working backup.
Q.06Will Face ID, Touch ID and iCloud still work after a NAND upgrade?[+]
└─ Yes, when it's done properly. We re-program the new NAND with the phone's original identity data (syscfg), so iCloud, Face ID / Touch ID and the serial all keep working and the phone doesn't see the chip as 'foreign'. A botched NAND swap that skips this step is exactly what breaks those features — which is why it's careful board-level work, not a quick part swap.
Q.0710More questions (4)
Q.07My iPhone is stuck in a boot loop — could a NAND repair fix it?[+]
└─ Possibly. A failing NAND chip is one cause of a boot loop or a phone stuck on the Apple logo, and replacing or repairing the NAND at board level can bring it back. But a boot loop has other causes too (software, other board faults), so we diagnose first — sometimes a restore fixes it without any board work. We confirm it's genuinely the NAND before recommending the repair.
Q.08Do you still stock parts for iPhone X / XR / XS?[+]
└─ Yes — at Kepong HQ and selected branches. Smaller branches may need 1–3 days lead time. WhatsApp us your model and we confirm stock at the branch nearest you before you travel.
Q.09iPhone 7 / 6s — still worth repairing in 2026?[+]
└─ Battery and charging-port repair: usually yes if everything else works. Multi-fault repairs (e.g., screen + battery + Face ID) on 6s or 7 in 2026 are usually not cost-effective vs upgrading to a refurb iPhone 11 or SE 3rd gen — we give you the honest comparison free during the diagnosis.
Q.10iPhone X Face ID broken after a drop — fixable?[+]
└─ Face ID flex on X / XS / XR is repairable but moves to component-level work at Kepong HQ. Free diagnosis tells you whether it's the dot projector, the IR camera, or the flex itself; some severe drop damage on the projector is non-recoverable, and we tell you that before charging anything.
