Iphone screen not responding?
My boyfriend's iphone (3G) recently broke and he said that if I could fix it that I could keep it.
I want to know whether it's something I'm able to fix myself rather that taking it into a repair shop as it will be cheaper in the long run.
Basically the screen does not respond at all, it's just black. I know that the phone's on because It still makes sounds but if you try to unlock it it doesn't respond either.
If anybody could tell me what to replace/link me to a video that would be great.
Bricked.
Try 1 of 2 things. Hold down the power AND home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds until you see an apple symbol on the screen, then let go AFTER you see the apple symbol. This resets the phone.
Or, plug the phone into iTunes and do an reset/restore from the computer.
If these methods don't work, then the phone is shot. If the phone is still under warranty, apple will replace it for free. Check your warranty status at the link below.
- My IPhone screen is not responding? My mom was trying to take my phone so I was grabbing it and pulling it an away from her and when I got it back the screen was frozen and I couldn't go back to the home screen or even turn it off. After a while the whole screen turned black and now I can't do anything on it.
- My iPhone screen is not responding? - 1 It was cracked before very badly and I'm not sure if something got behind the screen because of how bad its cracked or if it's because of the cracks themselves or something completely different. Also, the day it did that I played music in the bathroom while showering and it was very steamy bc no fan in there, and it was slightly wet. Is that why?
- My Iphone 6 keeps freezing and not responding to touch screen? I've already looked on the Apple website and followed all of their instructions but nothing worked. My Iphone still doesn't respond to touch screen. I think it might have a virus what should I do?
- My iphone 4s has a black screen, and isn't responding? I tried holding the power button because I figured it needed to be charged (had like 3 percent) but it didn't respond. Any ideas on what's wrong?
