Phone screen types: technologies and part qualities

Phone screens fall into two main technologies: backlit LCD (IPS, TFT, PLS) and OLED (AMOLED, Super AMOLED), where each pixel makes its own light. For repairs, the source of the part matters: original, service pack, refurbished, OEM or used. Which option suits your device is explained at diagnosis.

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.
