Why is my screen working, but it's not responding to my touch?

I just replaced the screen myself, but the replacement screen itself is also cracked a little. It is a Verizon iPhone 4.

That probably has something to do with it, or there is additional hardware damage besides the screen that was damaged.

  • My IPod Touch has a black screen.  When held in an angle u can see the slider to unlock it but it will not respond to my touch

    my ipod has a black screen.  When I hold it at an angle i can see the unlock bar and date/time.  It will not respond to my touch to unlock it.  Any ideas to what is wrong with it?

    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: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My music screen has frozen and will not respond to my touch

    my 32g iPod touch will not respond to my touch while i am in my music library.  i can navigate through my iPod and access my apps, calendar, etc., but as soon as i try to get into my music and browse through it, nothing.  it has done this before, but it usually "snaps out of it", and eventually begins to work properly.  i purchased this iPod brand new in march 2012, so in my opinion it should not be acting up.  anyone have any idea as to what is going on with it? 

    Try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: 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
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    When it says place the iPOd in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
    For PC
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    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
    - 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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • I changed the cracked screen on my 3gs, and screen works but it will not boot up and go past the Apple screen.

    I tried recovery at least three times, and it says that it can not complete the activation at this time.  I did take my Sim card out and try as well, because I had to use it in my old phone.  I reopened the phone and double checked that everything was plugged back in from the screen change.  What went wrong???  I restored it before and everything worked fine.  It's not hacked or jailbroke, so I don't know what's going on????  Please help!

    Yes, i did.  I bought a screen repair kit and it was very simple to change.  it works, but its stuck in recovery mode...

  • My screen zooms in and cuts off access to other icons/apps and does not respond well to touch commands, My screen zooms in and cuts off access to other icons/apps and does not respond well to touch commands

    It started out as an occasional problem but not seems to happen multiple times a week. The screen will zoom in and not respond normally to touch and swipe actions.  I cannot seem to get it back to normal unless I turn my phone off which can prove to be very difficult when the touch functions and swipe functions are compromised. Any ideas?

    You have activated the Zoom function in Accessibility. Triple click the home button and you can use 3 fingers to scroll the screen. Go into Settings>General>Accessibility>Triple click Home button, off.
    Double tapping with 3 fingers should turn it on or off. Three fingers to scroll around screen. Double tap 3 fingers and drag to change zoom.

  • My buttons and screen work, but I can't activate the screen to see what I'm doing.  Any idea what is wrong?

    My buttons and screen work, but I can't activate the screen to see what I'm doing.  This is after water damage.  Any idea what is wrong?  I'm not sure what to fix..
    I know the screen works because when it first turned on I saw the apple logo and then the screen.  If I hold the home and power button, I see the apple logo when it resets.  Then it goes blank again.
    I can hear when I get a call and pick up, and I can stop the sound and/or decline the call with the power button and side buttons.  It also still vibrates.  I'm confused - if the screen works, the buttons work, it vibrates, makes sound, and the touchscreen feature also works...  what is wrong for me to fix?  Why can't I see anything?!
    I appreciate any help anybody has to offer!!!

    I apologize for the confusion.  This was literally the only option on Apple's "Contact Us" section that I was able to access.  I assumed that Apple's clear intent to have me go here instead of speaking with someone in live time, and the fact this is on the Apple website, meant I could get some advice...  Both over the phone and online they require information I need to see my screen to provide so those are not options.  I tried to bypass this when calling through Skype.  Some lady who didn't know what was going on, who I waited a good while to speak with, put me on hold; I gave up after 30minutes of waiting to speak to somebody again.
    I've stumbled upon a few tricks to help me get through this problem, but I'm at a loss.  I need this phone to work until late December.  I need more tricks.  So yes, it's worth understanding.  Knowing what is going on will let me Google it and work with it, if nobody here is willing to help...
    And yes, it IS a glitchy phone.  It has been a glitchy phone for a long time.  Long before this. But completely unrelated issues.  I was assuming this wasn't just a glitch but something maybe somebody could help me understand.

  • My iphone 4s is working but I can not see the screen.

    my iphone 4s is working but I can not see the screen. What is going on?

    Possibly backlight died, if you look at it closely in bright light can you see a "Shadow" of the screen image?
    First, back up your phone

    Then, restore the OS from scratch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If that doesn't work, you'll need to have the phone serviced

  • Why doesn't JavaMail work, but PHP mailer does?

    I am trying to use JavaMail to send emails from my webserver. I've plugged in the host and the addresses are valid, but I am getting 550 errors. I've searched and found that I should change a setting on my mail server to allow relays from my webserver. However, we have a PHP mailer working on our webserver now, so presumably that relay is already in there. Why does the PHP work but the JavaMail doesn't?

    Can you turn on session debugging and post the protocol trace that shows the failure?
    The error codes alone are not enough, you usually need to look at the message included
    with the error code.
    Also, have you found the JavaMail FAQ?

  • I have reset my macbook pro to factory reset the screen is now asking me to put in my details, do i have too as if i am showing it to someone they need to be able to see it working but does that not mean that my name will be on it. please help

    Use a alias, but you might have to use a zip code that matches the location used.
    Also if you click the right button there is a way to bypass the registration, like register later or something, Apple has it hidden. Also to bypass the internet connection to send the registration off.
    Never place your name on a Mac or PC, it's spread throughout the entire machine, in emails, on the network in plain sight etc.

    Should I check the memory cards themselves? Reseat them?
    Yes.
    Memtest X or Rember to test the RAM.
    Reseat is also good.
    The iPhone 4 doesn't like USB 1.1 much.
    after the update the computer was working well, except for this freeze when ever I connect iPhone.
    I'd try USB 2.0 PCI. That's how I connect my iPhone 4s, and have connected all iPhones and iPods, to my G4.
    Never an issue.
    Can't say the same for USB 1.1.......
    The above (previous post) linked PCI card is cheap enough.
    Want cheaper, try this:

    The NEC chipset is the desired chipset, regardless of what OS the maker says is compatible.
    OS X has native NEC chipset USB support.

  • When on a phone call when I need to enter numbers on the keypad, the screen goes black and the device doesn't register the numbers.  Sometimes it works, but most times not...very frustrating.  Any recommendations?

    When on a phone call when I need to enter numbers on the keypad, the screen goes black and the device doesn't register the numbers.  Sometimes it works, but most times not...very frustrating.  Any recommendations?

    Is there a case or screen protector that is possibly interfering with the proximity sensor (detects if the phone is near your face, allows the keypad/screen to be visible when the phone is away from your face)

  • Why are my tags not syncing for a shared email account? IE One person tags an email as "Work" but it does not show on other users Thunderbird.

    Subject says it all for the most part.
    A shared email account we'll call "[email protected]" is not syncing tags across other end users Thunderbird. User A will tag an email as Work but it will not sync/show on anyone else's application. I've read that Thunderbird stores tags locally now? Is there a way to sync them up to our IMAP server? Or would we have to revert to a previous version of Thunderbird (if so which)?
    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

    the issue is probably that the server does not support tags..... Thunderbird stores them locally, but syncs them were the server supports it.
