iPhone 6s display black but showing up in iTunes.

Ok this is my sisters old iPhone 6s and she’s messed it up pretty bad. She stood on a wall and threw it onto grass, the screen popped out went black.

I ordered a new screen and weirdly replacing it didn't not fix it, its not the backlight the screen si completely off. there are no system sounds or vibrations, but ti shows up in finder on my Mac. I restored it and it failed, error 9. This was the first time it lit up (it showed the recovery screen). I tried to restore again and it worked. The phone is now activated and in normal mode and detected by my computer. There are still not sounds, vibrations or screen.

I have changed the screen, battery and dock connector and that didn’t fix it. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY FIRST WITH EVERY REPAIR.

Any ideas what’s wrong with it? :)

Being a 6s and are sure it is not just backlight and if you have ruled out parts the next thing to check would be the AP_LCM_RESET line. This usually shorts within the CPU on the 6s.

Sound like you accidentally, or the iPhone has booted into DFU mode, which is usually a black screen and only shows on the PC.

Try holding the home button and power button for up to 30 seconds, you might get an apple logo. If this doesn’t work and you have no data to lose, try using 3uTools to flash the device with the latest iOS. I had 3uTools get iPhones to flash and boot when iTunes couldn't.

Hope this helped…

Ive tried this about 8 times :/. The iPhone is actually on and in iOS. Itunes detects it and activated it after the restore. There is no screen, sound or vibrations weirdly.
