Hey guys! I have the weirdest situation with iPhone and I am trying to find out is it only me or another people too. So, long story short. Situation #1. A customer brought in an iPhone XS for a back glass replacement. I took a phone apart and changed a glass. When I put a phone together the touch screen stopped working. I disconnected the original screen and connected a GSX copy and it started to work. When I connect back, original screen didn’t work. I though I might did something wrong but I am usually very careful with what I do. Situation #2. Another customer brought in an iPhone XS to change a screen. I did change it and everything was fine. And I decide to connect back the original to check a touch. And it didn’t work again. But when I connect a GSX copy everything was fine. So, this is my question. Does any one else check that and had the same problem? Or what might happened with 2 phones that original touch screen touch stopped to work. If apple did something for a purpose then its mean that there is no way to change people’s back glass if touch will not going to work after disconnection of an original screen. Its a bit weird and I can not find any answer online. So, lets figure it out together!
In Situation #2 did you use the screen from the first XS rear glass repair ? Either way to me it does sound like you just damaged the FPC connector/cable upon removal. Next one you get for lcd repair make sure to test the touch before removal then test again each step of the way ie pry up the lcd and undo the shields, disconnect the battery then reconnect it and test is touch still working ? ok great next disconnect battery and lcd connectors , reconnect, retest, remove again, place aftermarket one on and test , disconnect , reconnect original lcd and test ect ect Process of elimination will lead us to the answer here :) Update (05/15/2019) Interesting , i must say i’ve only had them in for lcd replacement so havnt’t looked into this much . the next one to come through my store i’ll be sure to test and report back.
