iPhone 6 plus screen does not Swipe properly

Okay so this issue seems to be pretty unique because i looked through all the questions here and I did not find anything but I work in a Phone repair place and I encounter this pretty often.

Iphone 6 lightly bent frame on the top right corner. The screen does not swipe sometimes. There are small thick lines only on the top of the screen (flickering). Once i put pressure on the frame on the top right corner screen seems to start work again when I let go this flickering starts again and screen has issues again.

I would really appreciate if someone can give me an answer on that!

*checked multiple screens, sure it is not long screw issue (no screws installed), encounter this on multiple phones, Apple used to replace those but nowadays the manufactured warranty is expired!

  • Thank You!

This is a belated answer so hopefully it can be of use to folks who search for and find this question.

Touch Disease is a common failure on the iPhone 6 Plus.

At first, the phone will typically develop intermittent touch control failure. For some phones, a gray/white bar starts appearing at the top of the screen. Twisting and applying pressure in certain spots sometimes allows touch control to work for a short period of time, but eventually, the touch interface ceases to function entirely. This is colloquially known as Touch Disease. You can look at my profile for a link to a blog article on Touch Disease or search the web for more info.
