What’s up guys! Via here from Appgeeker’s channel!
This is a quick how-to video to fix iPhone touch screen not working issues.
Maybe your iPhone touch screen is not working at all, for example, it fails to respond to
your touch, tap, or press or it’s even not swiping.
Or maybe it’s only unresponsive when putting your finger on certain part of the screen.
However, that's not the end and I’m just going to give you four options here to fix
the unresponsive touchscreen problems.
Alright so here’s an iPhone and let’s pretend that its screen is not working.
In most cases, the temporary software crash is the reason why the device screen becomes
unresponsive. And the fix here is easy: do a forced restart.
No data’s gonna be lost and no need to touch the screen.
Just press some buttons to unfreeze the screen.
If you're using iPhone 8, X, 11, 12, or newer, press the Volume up button then release, press
the Volume down button then release, then keep holding the Side button.
When Apple logo shows up, release the button. If you're using iPhone 7, hold down the Volume
down button and Side button until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
If you're using iPhone 6s or older models, hold down the Home button and the Side button
until you see the Apple logo.
If the screen is still not working on your phone, your next step is to clean the screen.
Take a dry tissue or screen wipe, an alcohol wipe is better
Then gently use it to swipe the screen or the screen protector.
Keep swiping until there are not any finger print, body hair or dust on the screen.
Now, try if the screen can work and respond.
Sometimes, the screen protector and the phone cases can stop the touch screen from making
a good connection to the software. If the screen protector or the case is what
causes your iPhone touch screen not responding to touch, tap or swipe, you’d better remove
them all. Remember to do that carefully to avoid any
damage.
Some users complain that the screen still won’t work even after hard reset and the
phone screen is free of anything like the screen protector, the dust, the water.
Then, the screen issue might get a little bit tougher. that is the phone suffers an
operating system glitch. No matter you do anything: tap the screen,
swipe up to unlock the phone, or press the button, it just won’t respond and keep unresponsive.
Here comes your third solution: use iOS System Recovery software to bring the unresponsive
screen back to normal state. It’ll navigate you through doing the repair
quickly and make it a one-step process to get around the screen not responding issue.
During the recovery process, it’ll also take good care of your device content without
causing any data loss and after that, your device will be back up and running smoothly.
I’ve put the download link before so you guys can check it out there. And now, let’s
start fixing the not working screen.
Open the software on your computer and in the starting window, click More tools.
Then, go ahead to click iOS System Recovery. Next, hit the Start button.
Now, use a USB cable to attach your iPhone to the computer.
When the phone gets detected, choose Standard Mode and hit Confirm button.
Here, you can see a list of iOS firmware. Just highlight the latest version and hit
Next button to download the firmware. This may take around 15 minutes to finish,
so wait patiently. OK, now the download is complete. Click the
Fix Now button and you're done!
Now you might get rid of the frozen screen and let the phone work as normal.
Notice that if your iPhone screen stops working only when you open one specific app, obviously
the app is the cause. You should delete it from your device and
then use an alternative one to do the job.
Alright, so if you’ve done everything above but nothing helps, put your device into recovery
mode and restore from iTunes or Finder. This is really your last resort as it will
wipe clean your phone, which means you’ll lose anything.
We have linked the detailed guide to do that in the description below if you still want
to do that.
In other cases like that the phone has ever fallen down the ground or into water, or you’ve
replaced the screen, the connector to the screen may get loose
or broken so that part of the screen or the entire screen are not responding,
you’re better off taking the phone to Apple Store to get it inspected.
Well, hopefully this video helps you guys out.
