HT4623 screen wont respond to end a call 50% of the time

My Iphone 5 for the last 3 months has been having issues when I try to end a call that goes to someones voice mail, the "end" red bar, won't respond to touch. The screen goes black for a few seconds, then back on, and repeats that behavior. Then the next time it may work ok. Very frustrating. I've even tryed turning the whole phone off, and most of the time that doesnt work either. Phone was new in Sept 2012, worked excellent for first 4 months. I hope there is an easy explanation, or fix for this issue.

This seems to be a documented problem with the Lifeproof case. If you search you will find this is something that has been happening. Not much you can do besides remove the case, but if you search here, and there are a number of posts on the site Macrumors, you will see a few alternatives some people are using.

  • Iphone G3 screen goes black after ending every call.

    My iphone screen goes black after ending a call. Shouldn't I have to hit the "end call" button? I'm having to re-boot the phone after every call I make. Anyone else have similar issues?

    Nathan C.,
    I know that and it is not the problem nor an explanation.
    Here is the issue I am referring to:
    When someone calls, still during the conversation when I remove the phone from my ear (in order to access the key pad, for example), or in order to hand up, the screen goes black and the phone freezes.
    In other words I cannot terminate the call or access the keys,as I remove the phone away from my ear it shuts down.
    Any help???

  • HT201406 My multi touch screen wont respond at all.

    I have tried cleaning the screen and reseting and restoring my phone, I even tried to set it up as a new phone and but it seems that no matter what the middle section of the screen wont respond.

    Try resetting: hold down the power and Home buttons together until the Apple Logo is displayed, and release. No data or settings will be lost.

    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:

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Since upgrading to Lion the screen auto brightness adjusting icon comes on allmost all the time even though i've switched it of in preferences?? it's so annoying..any ideas??

    I don't know exactly what the issue is, but I think I do. Are you talking about what happens when you start up your MBP, full brightness, with power cable in - and when you're using battery only, the brightness dims? If so, this is a feature designed to make sure your monitor is bright enough while using batteries - but not so bright as to cause an undue drain on power.
    I don't know about a cure to this issue, if indeed this is what you're talking about.

  • Touch screen wont respond, touch screen wont respond\

    my touch screen on my ipod touch wont respond??? any answers helpful plz....
    have already did a successful recovery and updated which seemed to go well as it turns on normally but wont respond otherwise.  ps. the volume control works as well...

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • I pod touch got wet and screen wont respond

    My daughters Ipod touch got some sports drink on it.  we immediately put it in rice over night and then sat it in the sun the next day.  It will sync to Itunes, the screen comes up in full color but it wont respond other than putting it to sleep and turning it on and off.  Any other suggestions?
    Thanks!

    First off, it should have remained in the rice for a few days. And sitting it in the sun could have damaged the device. Put it back in the bag of rice, but my bet is its cooked.

  • Itouch touch screen wont respond, tryed restoring it but no fix?

    my itouch touch screen 32gb has ceased to respond, i have tryed to restore the settings via itunes but the screen still wont respond, any ideas??

  • My ipod screen wont respond to touch

    My ipod was working just fine last night, then today I tried to listen to it and the screen wont swipe to unlock or anything.... What do I do? I've rebooted, restored it, everything, but it wont respond to touch.

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

  • Ipod Touch 5, screen wont respond

    I dropped my Ipod Touch 5, face down. then when i tried to unlock or go to the camera it wouldnt respond. Ive tried turning it off but i cant because i need to slide the bar but my screen wont work. I also tried to restore but theres a passcode so it wont let me restore. I cant go to safe mode because my home button is also broken. Went to apple store as well but they didnt help at all. I NEED HELP!! WHAT SHOULD I DO?!? there are no cracks, so it puzzles me even more!!!
    IPod Touch 5, ios 7.0.6. 

    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and then restore via iTunes:

    or
    http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                                           
    RecBoot tip
    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:       
    Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Installs blootware on PC too
    Maybe this:
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.

  • My ipod screen wont respond to any touch

    my ipos wont respond at all any fixes ? my disconeccted wire ?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Touch screen wont respond... :/

    i dropped it in the snow, but it is not discolored. i had it in a bag of rice for several days, and only the right half of the screen is responding. i tried everything i found online, and i cant afford to take it in to fix it.

    Sounds like the digitizer is damaged and needs replacement.
