Screen not responding/has a mind of it's own when typing after repair?
Basically, I dropped my phone, screen-first, onto a hard floor. It cracked really badly. I thought to myself, "I successfully repaired an iPhone 4S screen many a time, and as that involved taking the phone to pieces, how hard can a 5S be when you remove the screen from the front, right?"
Wrong.
I watched the iCracked YouTube tutorial (I didn't buy my screen from them, I got it from Htechy). I realised you had to replace the button (which the hole didn't line up with on the screen, despite the screen being a more expensive one) and the camera and speaker and all that jazz. I did it all, put it back together and it seemed to work fine. Home button was a bit sketchy with the placement of, but it worked completely fine. The ear-speaker and front-facing camera worked too. I thought "Brilliant!". But after a few minutes, the screen would not respond to my touch or would type by itself (i.e. Spam a key. Usually on the left side such as E and D), but only for a second. After a few hours, the same problem kept happening worse and worse, but I would just lock my screen and unlock it and it would work pretty fine. But now, 2 days later, I can barely use it because:
It types by itself
It scrolls by itself or rejects my swipes (i.e. To close apps after a double tapm of the home button)
It won't pick up my touch
I don't know what's wrong with it and I don't know how to fix it. I can try fixing it if I know the issue. I doubt any phone shop would touch it now I've done it, either.
I have the same problem with my 5c. I just used it and it would normally fix itself after it got hot. But take it to the shop if you want it perfectly newish
- Windows Explorer says iPhone has stopped responding or is not connected? I just jailbroke my iPhone to use PPSSPP, but when I try to go to my phone with Windows Explorer, it says the it's not working. My phone is working perfectly otherwise, and I've restarted it with no change. Anyone know what's wrong?
- 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 has a mind of its own? I've had the iphone 5 for about 2 years now. I drop it a lot but recently anytime I text I notice it types by itself or starts opening other pages. It even called the person I was texting. What could I do to fix it? It is very annoying!
- My iphone 5c has a mind of its own? My iphone is messing up. It is moving on its own like someone else is touching it. At times, I can't even open the phone. Then it has its time that it will work perfectly fine, but then it start messing up.
