HT201406 Dropped iphone 4s, and touch screen wont read my finger when i slide to unlock or touch the buttons.

I recently dropped my Iphone 4s 32gig phone on the ground and the screen did not crack or anything. When i tried to slide to unlock it, nothing happened. It woudn't read my finger at all and the phone seemed fully functional (meaning i could click the unlock and lock buttons and home buttons and it all worked fine, it just seemed like the sensor was not reading my finger). So i figured it was a problem with the LCD screen so i purchased a new one and installed it correctly, and nothing happened. Something else is wrong with my iphone and i have no clue what to do. Can anyone help me?

If you are saying you have repaired the iPhone by replacing parts then you have voided any warranty ,if relevant and any other further support from Apple .
Apple do not sell spare parts so who knows what you have done to the iPhone but nothing that Apple will now help with

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I have a 16GB iPhone 3G and my screen will not work. When I have my sim card inserted into the phone calls go through, but I take it out and they don't go through. It was fine one minute and then the screen flashed and now it will not work. any answers?

    I own a 16GB iPhone 3G. My father passed it down to me a year ago after he got the iPhone 4. I pressed the sleep/wake button on the top of the iPhone to check the time, and as I did so, the screen flashed on and off and now the screen won't work. Whenever I put my simcard in there calls will go through but I am unable to hear them, but if I take it out calls don't go through. I've tried charging it for a while, connecting to my laptop, holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 10seconds to restore it, but nothing works. I've looked around and no-one'ed seemed to have this problem. I'd like to know what is wrong with my iPhone ASAP. thanks.

    First, update iTunes, then connect the phone to the computer and do a restore. This will also get your iOS up to date. Your phone should operate correctly after doing this, if not, you will most likely need to have the phone serviced or replaced.

  • After 'Slide to Unlock', my touch 4g stalls since IOS 5

    Since updating to IOS 5. When I 'slide to unlock'  while holding the touch horizontal, the touch stalls for a few seconds before coming alive. It sometimes does the same when held vertical.
    For example :  Listening to music, the display shuts down after a minute - I then access the touch by pressing the front button and sliding  the screen slider.  In IOS 4 the touch turns on straight away. In IOS 5 there is a two second delay.
    Anyone else suffering from this ?

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore from Backup..  Restore as New...
    Restarting your device
    1)   Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    2)   Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Follow these steps to reset your device
    Note: Reset your device only if it is no longer responding and the steps above do not work.
      Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    Given the state your device is in you have already erased your old stuff. You have an image on the screen that says, "Connect to iTunes." That's what the image means. So you will need iTunes on your computer.

    You cant unlock your phone unless you put in your password. It may be possible that the apple store could do something about it.
