iPhone Won't Turn On After Screen Replacement? Here's The Fix!

[@lewiscoupland]

Watched for 30 secs and THANK YOU!

[@widespread01]

Did the reset with no hope at all, worked! Thank you!

[@cheyennewalker4272]

omg thank you so much i was freaking out because my iphone wouldnt turn on after i replaced the screen but yalls video made it work again !!! im so thankful because i was literally freaking out

[@RealMithunMahesh]

Which one worked???

[@roshanmujeeb]

Hello Did this issue happen again ?

[@Itz_Spikey]

@@roshanmujeeb i have the same situation on a 7 I use as a work phone. Replaced the screen and the home button works as if it’s on but the screen itself wont turn on.

[@treymeadows7845]

Hard reset on iPhone 8 was necessary for the phone to recognize the newly installed screen. I could tell the device was on because moving the silent button up and down created the vibration affect going to silent usually does. Did a quick up, down, hold lock for about 20 seconds and it reset and screen turned on. Thanks, guys, saved me a trip to the repair guy and my wife was able to be without her phone for less than 12 hours!

[@spencerlarsen5794]

YAY! The reset trick worked perfectly! I cannot express my pure joy and gratitue toward your help!

[@shiyarose]

My bf was panicking because his phone wouldn't turn on after a screen replacement. Showed him this video and now it's up and working! Thank you 🙏

[@grumpygoose5471]

hi, i've just replaced the screen on my iphone 6s, proper way,i think....after putting it back together switch on, everything ok, after like 5 hours of use the screen gone black but the phone was on, i've tried the reset with the home button an off button and it worked but after few hours gone black again...what do you think is the problem?

[@PauloSilva-kq3tg]

Excellent!!! My new LCD screen couldn't turn on and after listening your comments I disconnected the battery and reconnected, then everything was fine. Thank you so much.

[@fivesixspins]

Volume up, volume down, then hold side button worked for me. Thank you very much.

[@trusseth]

Your video helped me! I recently replaced a broken screen on my daughters XR. After the replacement the battery faded away, would not charge and left the phone completely dead. I tries all of the attempts to reboot. You mentioned putting the original part back in. I did that and the phone took a charge. After a full charge, and software update, I put the new screen back in and it all works! The screen company suggested replacement only when the battery is at 20%. This didn’t allow enough battery for the needed software updates after the install. Thanks!

[@KaralisBrants]

35 seconds into the video and my problem is fixed. Amazing, guys. Thanks a lot!

[@dialaprohq]

love you guys i was upset at the company i bought the screen from. I am going to write an apology letter now. It was a lack of skill/ user error on my end.

[@dianatrigger2506]

Hi I just watched the first 30 seconds of this and fixed my son’s phone. He now thinks I am a rock star 😎. Thank you!

[@tj_keys]

same here! Great video

[@steveshiplett]

I was about to give up...and your first idea was the winner! Thank you!

[@someofeverything7055]

Thanks so much i was getting ready to give up. The first step helped. Holding down power button and volume down button.

[@RAAAZOOOR]

You saved me on giving up to the phone after doing the replace. Thanks!

[@kathrynekelley5942]

My flex cable tore right in the bend of my flex cable replacing my iPhone xr digitizer! Any fix it solutions would be greatly appreciated!

[@kathrynekelley5942]

Nobody knows!!!

[@CurtisPlaysGamingCurtisGamer23]

KATHRYNE KELLEY REEVES just buy a new flex cable it’s cheap asf on Ebay

[@PopGoesTheWeasel77]

30 seconds in and you fixed my problem!! Nice work gentlemen!!😁

[@AQIB32]

I’ve replaced a screen and it’s very dark, I can see it’s very faintly on any solutions?

[@brittlebtittany]

the back light is blown try a different screen

[@Cyrus-ro8kg]

@@brittlebtittany actually its his logic board. To be exact it was anode shorted to ground causing diode to blown and coil to melt. Need to change those micro parts

[@britnysnyder4991]

Does this work with galaxys?

[@kajmaring6767]

Thanks for this great video. I've replaced the screen of an iPhone 11 Pro Max, strictly following the ifixit guide... No issues during repair but the phone was not able to start afterwards. Disconnected everything from logic board again and tried to isolate the problem by connecting one by one (always try to restart in between). It turned out the it doesn't restart only when the OLED connector is attached. Have you ever observed this issue? Regarding FW I tried everything... DFU repair fails with attached OLED connector. If I disconnect OLED cable it works, but it has no impact (iPhone not turning on with attached OLED cable). Thanks

[@Jesuslovesyouuuuu.]

have you figured anything out

[@HusDave]

The hard reset worked for me. Thank you! Was ready to bring it in to the shop, figured I fried a circuit because i forgot to disconnect the battery when replacing a screen.

[@PayetteForward]

Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!

[@jessewilkie5762]

No way the hard reset did it for me who knew it could be that simple. I almost tried to refund my xr screen. Thanks a lot appreciate you guys

[@stevefazekas5875]

Genius Guys - I unplugged my battery and then reconnected it, plugged in my phone to do the automatic restart, and the new screen turns on now. Just need to re-swap the touch button at the bottom to make sure the home button opens the phone, but all should be right with the world again after it's all put back together... thx for the battery disconnect tip!

[@718Kipkila]

it would be very nice to show us a example iphone that is having the issue and fixing it so we can fix our iphone 8 as well. i had this happen to me before 2 years ago until i got replacement iphone 8.

[@ferrarimobileco5147]

Replaced my sons iPhone XR screen but was getting a black screen I did confirm vibration and I made a call to it was working after seeing this video volume up then down hold power button it rebooted and screen went on! Great job!! Excellent info quick and easy! Thanks!!

[@jesusxor]

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!! I thought I did the replacement screen bad or broke something. But when you guys said just reset it IT WORKED I WAS SO RELIEVED THANK YOU!

[@PauloFagundesSilva]

DFU MODE OR HARD RESET? PLEASE HELP

[@Donalliverpool1]

What if there is no vibration when charging? Is there something wrong that I can do with the battery?

[@jjanchar]

Thanks much, I was worried when I changed out my iPhone 6 screen would not power up, but your initial tip helped and I am up and running!! Well done!

[@ligayavi4000]

What do u do

[@sonico.talons]

I tired doing what you said to reset my iPhone 8 Plus but there was no apple logo from the beginning and it just had a backlight with no full color display. Now tell me, how much do I have to shell out for a new led and digitizer?

[@mtootm]

Replaced screen on an iPhone 11 regular. It would vibrate with the silence slider. Recovering the iPhone was not an option for the moment. I reseated the screen connectors and disconnected the battery. Plugged it back in and held the power button for about 10 seconds. It booted right up. Thanks!

[@filipezeferino6387]

Great video. My iPhone wasn’t turning on, so i disconnected battery as you said, connected it back and then it worked fine

[@PoloFromAMG]

I bought a screen replacement from amazon and I didn't receive a home button but my screen display is on but its gray/black but my vibration isnt working for some odd reason but its on because my pc detects an iphone is connected. Idk whats going on but its a 6s Plus edit: nvm my vibration is working and my screen is pure black and i just turned on my flashlight somehow and cant get it off

[@aegonzalezz]

hi i recently bought an iPhone 8 and the man did not mention it had a screen replacement, so a couple months later, aka now, the screen is unresponsive, i've tried rebooting it and nothing, please helppp

[@anilmertcomert6646]

Thank you very much. I had 2 iphones which had the same problem. I was about to throw them but now both of them are working.

[@cassykemper3359]

you are the best! i was worried my screen i bought pretty cheap within my budget wasn’t going to work. hard reset! thank you!!

[@mrsnake1278]

Well how do I fix it if my phone vibrates but won’t turn on

[@stackzbeatmakerz]

unplug the battery and reconnect it again. It worked for me

[@evilman9912]

Many thanks guys, I was freaking out before this vid, cause my iPhone wasn't turning on

[@TheSamiResidence]

Thanks guys! Disconnected and reconnected the battery cable.

[@michaelwest7649]

I have replaced at least a dozen screens. I never "test the screen" before re-assembly. It's been months since I replaced a screen and sure enough my next repair is my own iPhone. I've been dragging my feet on this one since December of 2022. Today was the day. I completed the job and felt it went well. Upon testing, I don't have video! The phone does power up because you can take a snapshot of the homescreen and hear the "click". I put the original cracked screen back on and still no video! Panic strikes. "How am I going to get all those QRCodes back?" "It's time to go back to Android!" I say. "But won't you miss AirDrop?" I move my SIM to a spare iPhone just to relax and see if I missed any text messages. I came across your video and the first suggestion on volume UP, volume DOWN, hold the power button saved my bacon. I"m back!! THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

[@streetsweepa46]

What happens when it boot loop after a new screen repair????

[@chris-sh5tv]

Did you ever find out?

[@streetsweepa46]

chris yelp. The ribbon plug for the camera was upside down 😂

[@m.alvelo2512]

after replacing it... it wasnt turning on and making a vibrating sound. looked for an answer and find your link.... first tip.. up vol down vol.. and hold power.. and bingo... right on the spot.. it turned on... new follower here!!

[@toppere43]

thanks, that 40 seconds plus makes all the difference. worked a treat

[@haydenjudepancho1881]

Thankyou so muchhhh i lost hope knowing i messed up my phone and 1 hr later i watched this and it worked

[@kristenzamarripa4987]

What does it mean if you have to keep resetting your phone?

[@kubamilanowski766]

Should my iP8 run without a camera assembly? My cable broke and firstly I want to check if the phone, home button and the screen are working before I buy another camera assembly.

[@rahimlalani8386]

Hi , I am a iPhone technician and have been fixing screens . Recently I have noticed that iPhone 7,8 and plus models having software issue after screen replacement. What it can be .? I have tried the boot or hard reset mode . Still it does the same . Touch doesn’t work sometimes. And sometimes phone goes in dfu mode after changing screen and surprisingly before it works fine .

[@ezerish]

It would help to know if the iphone (in my case se 2020) can turn on, charge or vibrate even if the screen is completely detached. It appears 100% dead, but Im thinking of putting on the old screen to get back to a place I knew it came on.

[@claudette7025]

Hi, after the screen replacement my phone is very slow

[@Parafontana]

FINALLY IT WORKED!!!! After replacing both battery & screen, the screen touch won't respond, so i had to try connecting and disconnecting the screen wires multiple times and voile! the screen touch respond. Thank you so much 🙏

[@captainhindsight8604]

Spot on guys. 6s here and it worked just hold home and power and switched back on!

have you ever seen the display circuit go bad while the phone still turns on?

what if after the replacement screen the home button doesnt work what do you do

I don’t know what I did wrong but I just took it apart and put it back together and it works now

Thank you so very much guys, you made my day after I replaced my iPhone screen and it didn't work. You are awesome!

Hard reset fixed mine! Thanks

[@Cartooncatali2015]

You boys are the BEST!!!!! Hard reset. I thought for sure I forked it up. It was quite an easy process except for the screw that was stripped by the face cam (the part I had to remove and put back on the new screen) I can finally catch up on my podcasts lol😅

[@kawzeditz8884]

Very helpful I had no hope

[@feiavannieuwburg5107]

My screen stopped working because I was reseating the connections while the battery was still connected. I fear I have shortcut 2 screens now :') If you shortcut an iPhone screen like that is it unusable? Or is there something i can do still?

[@jordonbrown2931]

What if you install a screen without disconnecting the battery

If they missed it go watch a long boring video that didn’t miss it

[@k0rbinplays]

My iPhone SE (2016) will not work with any screens. I have tested it with multiple replacement screens and even tried a screen from a second iPhone SE which I knew worked beforehand. I also tried the replacement screens on the other SE and they worked fine. I know the phone is turning on, because it vibrates when I flip the sound switch. Is there anything I can try to fix it, or is the phone unrepairable?

[@alexiscorrales9754]

iphone 7plus changed the screen from another 7plus hard reset and it worked thank you!

[@oceansworld2649]

only took this video 30 seconds to help me great content !

[@PsychedBilly]

Hard reset worked boys thanks so much

[@koraykumru1295]

I have a model a1662. Severley damaged the screen. Honestly smashed the crap out of it. Had a repair done and it worked well for a day or two, then the phone died once and now it takes me 30 to 50 tries to get the screen to come on if I turn the screen off. I have no idea what causes this.

[@vunit8213]

I need some expert advice! I recently bought a used iPhone XS Max it was working flawlessly, but me not leaving good alone wanted to see if the battery was the original or a replacement because I wasn’t getting the percentage reading on top of the right hand corner battery 🔋 display. That being said I took the two screws out and using a plastic iPhone pryer I lifted the screen just enough to peek inside, causing no damage whatsoever! I didn’t take the screen completely off I just barely lifted to get a look at the battery. Then assembled it back together and put a new phone case on that was extremely stiff and it got stuck holding the buttons down on both sides for a few minutes until I could get it unstuck. After everything I pushed power to realize it was stuck in the apple 🍎 reboot loop. Nothing is working including volume up/volume down/ power for 20 seconds. I tried leaving it on charger all night, and still nothing. I took it to a local apple certified repair shop today to do a recover or to reset to factory condition and he tried it 3 times on 2 different pc’s using different cords and said this isn’t normal! I left my phone there and now I’m afraid it’s going to be something bad like the logic board is fried! Please someone give me some advice! Can my phone be ruined!???

[@shawnfitzpatrick2954]

Thank you, you saved me a LOT of frustration and stress, now I know that I damaged my front facing camera, sensor array cable, but was at least able to have a working phone while I wait for the new part to come in. Thank you again!

[@declanmeehan6700]

You boys saved my life thankyou so much

[@Hugo-xj2mj]

thank you, restarting it on the iphone7 worked immediatly

[@savagesquadreaper7878]

If it is your logic board if you can’t go to Apple because original screen was thrown away what is down to logic board

[@mk6_kate]

Does this actually work? Someone please let me know

[@johntron1237]

Worked like a charm thank y’all

[@tamelajackson6329]

I'm having this problem now. First, nice video guys, very easy to comprehend.Tried the hard reset but it failed so I'm going to utilize your your other suggestions and try again. I had great success the first screen I replace but the same day I dropped the phone and broke a ribbon on the new screen. I had to order a new one and this is the one I have power but nothing else not even a charge battery signal will come on. Think I will reseat the cables and see if that will fix it. Thanks alot!😁

[@cinthyaguzman3795]

Did it work?

[@jordanwya]

If the actual board itself is messed up and a new screen won’t fix it is all of the pictures and videos on the phone gone forever?

[@nickybyrne9790]

Thank you!

[@PayetteForward]

You bet!

[@DrilonThegamer]

I toke it to the fix center and they say hopefully is the chip like the 16 gb 32 gb or more Hopefully is that problem

[@samjephcote7811]

hi huys thank you so much for this as my touch screen packed up after new screen fitted only after a week and the reset worked a treat ... great work guys

[@phcuckser]

i replaced the back housing of my iphone and the screen (full assembly) i bought 3. i disconnected the battery before replacing the screen and reconnected it after installation. all 3 screens had the black lights come on but no display. what else can i check/try besides popping the connectors out and popping them back in?

[@oceanne5789]

I changed the screen of my iPhone 8 and it turned on while connecting the cables. Everything is back in place. The home button works and I can hear messages come in but the screen stays black. I tried the hard reset and it makes a weird beeping sound like a siren. What should I do ?

[@delorischavis6250]

That happens to me too!

[@swatgut123mods]

I have an iphone 8 red and i needed to changed the screen because liquid lcd was everywhere and it was badly cracked. I had it for a very long time like this and it still worked. I changed it last night and got a new screen that is compatible with it. the screen is white and sticks out just a little bit. I followed the videos and after spending an hour of being careful removing everything and transferred everything i put the new screen on. So the screen powers on then gives me apple logo then goes to a black screen. the phone is still on but home button doesn't respond, it doesn't vibrate, or i cant call it. Do you know what this could be?

[@Mattatron-kx1qn]

I replaced my screen a couple months ago and as I was putting the last screw in it fell and landed in a weird spot and it sparked and I believe it shorted something out. Me and my friend can not figure it out. The screen won’t power on but the phone is still on it’s just the screen won’t power on. What do you think could have happened and what could you recommend on how to fix that if it’s possible?

[@kaihawkins1050]

Nothings working :( it makes a little noise though and I needed the phone asap
