Repair information and guides for the iPhone 8 that was released on September 22, 2017. Model: A1863, A1905

Touch stops working sometimes after screen replacement

My iPhone 8 touch might stop working (home button works, the screen is on but not interactable) after I replace a screen myself (aftermarket screen). Reattaching the LCD cables can temporarily solve the issue for a week, but in worst case scenario, only for an hour. Touch simply stops working while normal used, as I never drop my phone after repairing.

Did I do anything wrong when reattaching the LCD cables? Or is it the screen's problem?

Hi

This sort of behaviour can happen after a had aftermarket screen has been installed

To confirm this I would reattach the old screen and see if the behaviour continues

If the behaviour continues I would start to have a look at the LCD and touchscreen connectors and clean them with some isopropyl alcohol

After that it is a board level issue so if you haven’t done this sort of work before I recommend taking it to a authorised repair shop that specialises is that sort of repair

Hopefully this helps

Any questions please ask

Thanks:-)
