Replaced cracked screen with Ifixit display, Now strange fading
I dropped my iPhone 6 and really busted up the screen bad. It worked but was basically non-usable.
I ordered a replacement display from Ifixit. I replaced the panel only, I re-used the front facing camera and a couple other components versus the complete panel to save the $20. I also replaced my battery with an Ifixit battery.
Once reassembled, every thing seemed to work but very quickly it became apparent there was a problem. Everytime I wake the phone, the screen exhibits this strange fading behavior. Sometime the screen is not there at at all. But most of the time, it slowly fades and is non responsive. For example if a text message comes in or the alarm goes off you cannot snooze or slide the message.
However after the failure, if you press the power button again, the screen on the phone works normally.
The best thing is to watch these two videos to see the behavior.
Is this is a bad screen replacement part?? Or could it be a bent cable ? I’m pretty confused. Any thoughts or solutions appreciated.
Is this a good question?
