iPhone 6s turning its self off, hard reset to turn back on.

My iPhone 6s is turning its self off when the phone is locked. It’s only doing it when the screen lock comes or I press the side button and the phone won’t come back on 90% of the time. To get the phone back on I’m having to hard reset and sometimes that is even hit and miss and takes a few attempts.

I found out if I run a podcast or Apple Music in the background and lock it or screen lock comes on the phone is like normal.

I’ve tried setting up from new and back up and still having the same problems.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Did this happen recently after a screen replacement? Usually this issue only occurs on defective screens.

It happened after the phone was dropped. The screen had popped out the top corner of the phone. I then taken it apart to clip the screen back in also had a new battery as well at the time which I replaced while the the unit was open.

Why does having iTunes or podcast running in the background able to keep the phone on?

What do you think the next step I should take? Thank you

Unfortunately sounds like the display has become damaged. If you are using the same screen that got popped out, chances are the screen needs to be replaced.
