iPhone Screen Repair


There are two types of broken screens:    1-Broken Glass  2-Broken LCD

What does iPhone broken glass mean?

Let’s say you accidently dropped your phone on the floor, and now you have an iPhone with a broken screen, if you can use your phone like it used to be, there is no line/colour changing on the display and it is functioning correctly it means just the glass is broken.

There is another reason which could cause broken glass, having a bad frame (It could be bent, damaged on the corners).

You may ask why my frame should be bent well it is a standard issue among iPhone 6 and six plus as these two are slim and could easily become bent after a while for different reasons (one of them is sitting while the phone is in your pocket).

Also if you do not use a case for your iPhone after sometimes, the frame could have some damages on the corners.

So it is better to prevent your phone from damaging itself.

What does iPhone broken LCD mean?

This time, you have accidentally dropped your phone, and you cannot use it as before. There are lines or dark dots/spots on the display, display colour has been changed or even worst the screen is entirely black, you know your phone is on because you can hear things are happening but NO screen.

Having a bad frame (damages on the corners or being bent) on your iPhone could cause your LCD not working as well. Sometimes there is no crack on your glass or LCD but you can see some lines on the display, and the touch is not responding sometimes or all the time.

If you have a battery problem, this could cause LCD problem too. If you have noticed that the battery life of your iPhone is not like before, It needs to be charged 3-4 times a day for regular usage or it drain so fast you should be worried about your LCD as well. Cause when your battery is not a good one it means it is getting fat and since there is not much space inside the phone the battery will start pushing the LCD from inside, and it can break, so if you ignore changing the battery, it could cause you more issues in future.

Some people may ask why a repair shop I can fix it myself:

To fix your screen, you need to have proper tools and the part (new LCD) which you may buy them from an online store then you need to follow online tutorials step by step.

There could be some problems if you fix it yourselves:

  2. Use wrong screws which may cause main board problems
  3. Forget to put back something in the right place
  4. The part you have is faulty and is useless
  5. You may damage something, and it appears after a while
