Iphone touch screen frozen and top right corner hot

Hi, I've seen two posts from over a year ago about this subject, but there have been no resolutions posted.
I have an iphone 4 and all of a sudden the screen froze and I could not slide it open.  The phone itself is still working (I've gotten text messages, spotify was on, and the buttons work), but the touch screen does not respond to anything.  Additionally, the top right corner (front facing) is hot, I mean really hot (it's the corner with the camera lens) it almost burns my finger.
Right before this happened, I was going for a jog, listening to Spotify and the phone was probably a little overheated since it's in my pocket while I'm jogging and it's 80 degrees outside, but I've done this before and this hasn't happened.  At one point it let me slide it open, but then the screen did that thing when you delete apps and the icons jiggle and have those "X's" in the corner, but then it wouldn't respond and so I shut it off again.
I have already "re-booted" twice by pressing both buttons and letting it reboot with the white apple sign, this has not worked.
Please respond if you know anything to do as I am no longer under warranty, I am an unemployed recent grad and cannot afford to get this fixed!
Thank you soooo much!

The fact that you said that it's burning hot on the corner I would call apple support anyways andd see what they say.
The digitizer could of went out.

    Did you try to reset your device by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes up again?

  • I have an iPod Touch 4G and i noticed soon after i bought it that the screen was slightly separated from the back metal plate on the top right corner...

    I have an iPod Touch 4G and i noticed soon after i bought it that the screen was slightly separated from the back metal plate on the top right corner, and I didn't have any problems up until a few days ago. The touch screen doesn't work properly in most places, and that is getting very annoying! So, my question is, can I get a replacement and if so which model would i get, the 4g or 5g?( I'm a little confused about which one I would get IF I were to get a replacement.) I would like an answer asap please!

    If under warranty and not abused Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one of the same mode.. Sorry, no upgrade.

    That is the orientation lock indicator. It means that you phone will not go into landscape mode when tilted on it's side.
    To turn orientation lock off double tap the home button, to access the multitasking menu, then swipe your finger to the right over the multitasking bar at the bottom and touch the big button on the left with the padlock.

    Are you using the charger and cable that came with the phone?
    Are you using an unauthorized third party charger?

When I click new project at the top of the screen the file then reappears from the top right corner of my creen but does not fill my whole desktop. I then click on a name for a new project and then the app just disspears again inot the top right corner of my screen and I do not know how to get it back? This is is the first time this has happened.

  • Shift icon in the top right corner of screen? Help please

    Hey everybody, I have a question here. I've been getting a random problem on my curve 9310, and was wondering if anyone else had the problem or knows how to fix it. In the top right corner of my screen there's an icon, and it looks like its the shift/caps key icon, just aA^ (up arrow). The touchpad works, and I can scroll around, but the touchpad button or the enter button to open an application does not work, nor do any of the other keys. If I pull the battery and restart the phone, its still been doing that, and if I don't touch it and the screen fades to black, when I touch the buttons, its like the phone is off. I had this problem earlier in the week and it fixed itself, but its been doing it again. Any ideas on whats causing this, or how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi chris644 and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    This icon in the top right corner you are seeing indicates that the caps lock has been enabled. If you press the shift button again, this should remove the icon from the top of the screen.
    Thanks.

  • How to get a contact photo appears like in iphone ad (small on top right corner) when dialing or receive a call?

    Hello everybody, I just want to make any contact photo appears in right top corner as appears on iPhone Ads (small - Top right corner), I mean not Full screen.  when I make or receive a call??

    Hi,
    It comes up with a Small Contact image as it is Linked to the Facebook or Twitter Account.
    But if you edit the Contact and Upload the Image its not possible to get the Small Contact Image.
    A Contact needs to be linked to an Account.
    You can signin to Facebook and Update the Facebook Contact through:
    SETTINGS > FACEBOOK > Turn ON Contacts > UPDATE CONTACTS.
    Then,
    Go To CONTACTS > GROUPS > Select FACEBOOK.
    You Phone Contact will get Linked to the Phone Contacts with Small Contact Images.
    Check It....
    HOPE THIS RESOLVES YOUR ISSUE.

  • IPod Touch has an N with circle around it in top right corner?

    iPod Touch has an N with circle around it in top right corner.... what is this?!

    look closer. it's probably the portrait orientation lock, simply a symbol (actually a lock inside a circular arrow, not an "n") that's telling you that you locked the screen rotation to prevent landscape viewing. if you press the home button twice and slide the backgrounded apps bar to the right, you will be able to see the music controls and a grey box to the left. that box can be tapped to lock or unlock the screen orientation.

  • What does the lock with a circle around it mean in the top right corner of my iPhone 5c

    What does the lock with a circle around it mean in the top right corner of my iPhone 5c

    It means that your screen rotation is locked. Open up the control center by sliding your finger up from the very bottom of the screen, and click on the screen rotation lock symbol, which is the same symbol you see on the status bar.
