Chosen Solution
Hey, I got an customer that I have changed screen on there iphone 7. After a while it started flickering and the bottom of the screen ‘mirroring’ half of the top portion (the part that shows Carrier, time, battery% etc) about 5-7mm of the top is also shown in The bottom. Replaced the screen again and no problem, for a few weeks then that one started doing the same. Havent seen this problem before so woundering if anyone of you guys know the solution?
This is probably a “supplier” issue as I have never seen this before and don’t really know what kind of logic board issue could cause this (although anything is possible). Try a screen from s different batch or different supplier to see if you have the same issue.
I’ve seen buttloads of these issues for the past couple of months, from different suppliers - both on ip7 & 8.. Nothing to do but change the screen again, pray your supplier will swap/reimburse you.. I know for a fact that in my cases, the installation has been done correct, as we’ve done past 1000 ip 7/8 and the issue is fairly new - started popping up about 2 months ago. The screens in case have been working for everything between 5 days and 4 months..:) I use only OEM screens in my shop, usually these are fine, and they still are - there just some bad “apples” in the bunch..:D well, that, and China has some sort of production issue on these models..;) Perhaps they all experiment with cheaper versions of the incell 3D touch technology to make sure screens are as slim as original, but it’s just guesswork from my P.O.V..:) Hope it’s useful - best of luck..D
I’ve got the same issues on my iPhone 8. After playing some games like PUBG that makes phone a bit hotter makes the screen back normal. And also I think my iPhone display is refurbished because it was a gift and it worked perfectly for a year now this problem really sucks.
