Hi, I have 2 iPhone XS Max, one is on iOS 17.0 and 16.3.1, because 16.3.1 has the advantage of jailbreak, but that iPhone has a broken screen, and I want to get the screen from 17.0 iPhone to 16.3.1
Will there be any problems afterward?

no the ios is on the logic board and has nothing to do with the screen

So in theory I can use an original screen from one iPhone to another and not lose any features like Face ID or True Tone?
@kiyoshi1407 true tone will need copied, face id is to do with the front flex cable which will need transferred over

The only issue you should encounter will be that you will lose the True Tone function on the screen. There is a way to copy what's called the MtSN number from the original screen to a replacement, but it requires a device programmer, something like the JC V1SE or the QianLi iCopy. Those start at about $85 USD, so it's entirely up to you whether that one function is worth the purchase for what will most likely be a one time use.
You might check around and see if there are any local repair shops that would do the programming for you for a reasonable cost, but otherwise you'll have to decide how important that feature is to you. Other than the MtSN number, there are no other parts pairing issues with swapping screens on an iPhone XS Max.
