IPhone 6 touch screen spazzing out

My new iPhone 6 touch screen randomly goes nuts. At first it was just a dead spot on the screen where the y key was located, it wouldn't let me touch anything there, then this issue stopped abruptly. Now it's just doing stuff on its own, opening apps and rapidly going from one app to another when I barely even touch it. (For instance, I opened Facebook and it randomly selected a person's status, jumped back to the newsfeed, went back to the status, copied someone's comment, went to search and pulled up a new person's profile, closed, opened YouTube, then I locked it and unlocked it to find Safari open. All within a few seconds.) I tried a hard reset, and the issue is persisting. I'm starting to hate this thing. It's such a nice phone, except for all this. Anything I can do, or do I just have to complain to the Verizon store and have them send me a new one?

  • My iphone touch screen is not working

    my iphone touch screen is not working i have restarted it how can i back up to the computer without allowing it through my phone?

    If your iPhone screen is broken or damaged so that it is not possible to enter anything, then you will not be able to unlock it if you have set a passcode and you will not be able to communicate with it in any way.
    At this point you need to take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians check it out and see what can be done.  If you are in the US, some Apple stores here are now able to replace the screen on an iPhone 5-series device.  Otherwise they do an out-of-warranty replacement for $269 if the failure is due to damage.

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.

    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.

  • How to caliberate iphone touch screen

    i am having problem with the touch of iphone. some time the touch not work where i want. i guess i need to caliberate the iphone touch screen. please provide help about it.
    why i am saying i need to caliberate because i need to press the button below of it. not on the exact place where the button is.

    Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
    Note: You will not lose any data.

  • Portion of my iphone touch screen is not responding

    Portion of the iphone touch screen is not responding while typing (both horizontal and vertical). All other functions are O.K.  Is it LCD problem or any calibration problem ?  Some experts says the LCD screen is to be replaced ?

    basic troubleshooting steps from the User Guide are restart, reset and restore.  Have any of these been tried?

  • My iphone touch screen is freezing

    my iphone touch screen is freezing, it wont let me do my thing on it as fast as I usually go.
    This phone has so many problems, its ridiculous and overrated.

    Hi..I did everyting..restored and had a screen protector on mine. Didn't do any good. Only the top part of my screen is super responsive even without touching its taking my inputs for the menus. Went to apple store couple of time and they diagnoised and said it might be a "Springpad" which is system feature thats causing the problems. I might have to swap it with a new one at apple store. Good that mine is still under 1 yr warranty

  • Sensitivity of iphone touch screen

    Can I adjust the sensitivity of the iphone touch screen?  Does not recognize the end call button through my case.

    You're welcome. They replaced my son't twice. Once for the End button issue, once for a problem with the sound. The mic when on the phone sounded terrible, you remove the case and it sounded fine. but the case back on and it was terrible again. Both time replaced at no cost.

  • Iphone touch screen malfunction

    I have taken my iphone to an apple store 2 times for the same problem, the touch screen only wants to work half the time. Sometimes only certain portions of the screen will work it is like there are dead spots. Alll they do is reboot/restore my iphone at the store and say "There it works better now". well a little better for about an hour or two. Any suggestions?

    I had the same problem. The bottom strip of my screen stopped working. According to Apple technical support and these user forums, there doesn’t seem to be an end user solution for this. I called technical support, they promptly sent me a prepaid box to ship my unit back and a new one arrived within two days. I synchronized and was back up and running in a few minutes.
    Here's a very helpful "secret" that nobody else seemed to know about (even the Apple technician)... When you synchronize the iPhone, all information on the phone gets placed on your hard drive in a recovery file. So, when you receive your unit (or an alternate replacement unit) from the repair center, the first synchronization should restore the phone to the exact state it was in at the time of the synchronization. This includes settings and even little details like how far down in your notes had you scrolled. So, the replacement phone that I received became identical to how mine was. Had I known this, I probably wouldn't have struggled to manually type my notes from the iPhone screen onto another computer prior to shipping it off for repair.
    Your experience may be different than mine, but I hope the above works for everyone out there as it did for me.
    Something else I did was after synchronizing my phone, I then performed a Reset of the phone using iTunes which erased everything on the phone and returned it to the original factory settings. I did this just to avoid sending off a phone with confidential information on it. This didn't seem to interfere with the backup image of my phone already on my desktop computer.
    I hope this helps. For my complete iPhone review, do a Google search on iphone review resourcesforlife and click on the top link.

  • 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.

  • I have an issue with my iphone touch screen not responding, apple replaced phone and still having same issue. They say its software, what can I do I need my phone to work

    Touch screen on Iphone slowly, over a few days stopped responding. Went to Genius Bar and was given a new 3GS because they didn't know how to fix the issue. Cool. Went home synced with Macbook Pro (new-12/2010), two days later same issue. This time when I went to Genius Bar they restored the phone to factory settings and instructed me to load as a new phone in Itunes instead of restoring information of the previous phone, which is an option good for when your replacing phone not fixing one Anywho, did everything they told me to do. SAME ISSUE A FEW DAYS LATER. This time I was told the software issue is with my Macbook and I thought this made sense, so I took it in along with the phone. That was yesterday. Phone working intermittently since leaving Apple. I was given instructions that if their "daily" fix didn't work to erase hard-drive and reinstall software that came with the macbook and start fresh. This would definately fix the issue. Extreme yes, but I need use of my phone, especially since we got rid of the house phone and all use cell phones. So last night I did the required erase of hard-drive and re-loaded all software that came with it and Microsoft Office for Mac. Plugged in the phone to set up in itunes and thought that was it. My phone is still not working. Can't answer when I try, can't make calls, etc. What the heck do I do? I'm starting to feel like a major lamo having to keep going back to Genius Bar, but I know enough to know these issues should have been resolved with the steps I've taken. I even went as far as to restore through my husbands computer and same thing. Could there be a problem with Itunes? Could the magnetic stripe in my debit card be hurting the device somehow, although that's a long shot since I have had the same or similar case since getting the phone. Frustrated beyond belief. Apple support not open at this hour so I'm trying my luck here.....
    Thanks for any input.

    restore iPhone as new and start again

  • My iPhone touch screen no longer works

    I have a 4s iPhone with the latest iOS 7 update. The touch screen is completely non responsive. I tried to reset the screen but I can't because I need to be able to swipe across to reset the phone and it won't let me.
    What should I do? My phone data hasn't yet been restored since I tried to restore to factory settings. I can't get calls or even open the phone.
    (No water damage or screen damage recently that could be correlated with it. Onset of problems was gradual, before today the screen was touchy but now completely unresponsive)

    I solved my own problem by clicking the home button 3 times.

  • Dead zone on iPhone touch screen?

    My iPhone 5 suddenly has a dead column on the touch screen where it won't respond at all. It started suddenly in the middle of texting. I've had this phone for almost a year and never had a problem. Any advice? I tried turning it off and back on, etc.

    Well it was clearly a dead column in the display...I took it to the Apple store and they installed a new display module while I shopped. Came back 1/2 our later and it was as good as new! And it was under warranty so I paid nothing.
