Grandpa messed up my iPhone 6s Plus when trying to fix the screen. Read details please how much would it cost to fix it. Pic in comments
I dropped my phone on the corner, and it broke the screen. Instead of just taking it in and getting it fixed, my grandfather insisted on fixing it himself in hopes that it'd be cheaper than paying $150. I had to agree because he bought me the phone for my birthday. However, mr. DIY didn't have a clue what he was doing except from some YouTube videos. And fix it yourself kit instructions. He bought the kit to replace the screen, for $40 and accidentally ripped one of the ribbons inside of the iPhone 6s Plus when he was trying to replace the screen. He didn't replace the screen back on correctly so now there's a little space between the frame and the phone at the top. I could handle the space though because my case would hide it. HOWEVER; the colors don't seem as contrast, and HD as they use to be. Also, there's a tiny piece of dust in my front camera where he decided to keep my phone wide open for three days and didn't think to make sure there was no dust inside before placing the non-cracked screen into place. I don't need a screen replacement but I'm wondering what they might charge at Verizon or apple to take off the screen clean the camera and place it back on correctly? Or would I just have to pay the $150 because of the color and a potential "wrong" ribbon issue? I've added a picture of the screen now that it's "fixed" in the comments.
Verizon doesn't do cell phone repairs. Apple won't touch it, since you had someone other than Apple fix it, and on top of that used non Apple parts. And if they did touch it, they would have you buy Apple parts to replace the third party parts you had installed. So in the long run, it might be cheaper to buy a new (used) iPhone 6s Plus.
- My iPhone 7 is stuck on the restart screen, anyone have tips? (Read for details)? I got the screen replaced yesterday as it was badly smashed, and today when the phone went flat, it then went to the restart screen. The phone keeps blinking off and on every 30 seconds or so, but every time it's on, it's the white apple logo on a Blank black screen

- I was trying to show my grandpa how the iPhone will give you the weather, and? He said "If I need to know the weather, I'll step out on the balcony", and he opened the door and fell down 3 stories. In the ambulance I told him it was partly cloudy. Was I wrong? My sister said I was wrong, but it WAS partly cloudy!
