Screen displaying, but touch dose not work.

Hi ,

My screen is displaying fine, but touch is not working. It happend after the phone fell an landed flat on the screen, it dident even crack the glass. A small protion of the low end of the screen is working. Is it the screen itself that needs replacement or is it connector issue / motherboard issue?

Thanks for all help in advance.

Although it wouldn't hurt to check the connector, you're almost certainly looking at needing to replace the screen. It's unlikely to be something as simple as a connector that's come loose, as the display connector on your phone is held down with a metal plate and a screw, so they virtually never come loose even as a result of a fall.

Even though you don't see any visible sign of damage, there are delicate connections between the flex cable and the glass that the digitizer circuits are printed on, and a sharp shock such as a fall can easily be enough to disrupt those connections. Unfortunately, once they've broken loose they can't be reconnected so the only solution is to replace the screen.

Here's the guide you'll need to do the job; if you want to support iFixit's repair efforts you can buy the screen right here on this website, but if you're more cost conscious you can easily find them on sites like Amazon, eBay and AliExpress.
