iPhone screen flex replacement: when is it needed?

On most iPhone models, the screen flex (the cable linking the screen to the board) is part of the screen. When it is damaged, the picture comes and goes, lines appear or touch works only in parts. In most cases the whole screen is replaced; repairing the flex alone is not possible on every model.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Can only the screen flex be replaced on an iPhone?

On most models the flex is part of the screen, so in most cases the whole screen is replaced.

02

How do I know the flex is faulty?

If the picture comes and goes, lines appear or the screen works when pressed, the flex or connection may be faulty.

03

Will True Tone be lost after a screen replacement?

On suitable models True Tone is kept with a transfer; it is checked before return.

04

Will the repair delete my data?

No. Screen and flex repairs do not touch the phone’s storage.

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
