How Do I Know If My LCD Screen Is Broken on My iPhone?
iPhones are popular for their durability and functionality, but accidents happen, and your phone may get damaged despite your best efforts to keep it safe. One of the most common forms of damage is a broken or cracked LCD screen. This article will provide you with the knowledge to recognize the signs of a broken screen, so you can take the necessary steps to fix it.
The following are some ways to determine if your LCD screen is broken on your iPhone:
1. Check for Visible Cracks or Damage
One of the most obvious signs of a broken screen is visible cracks or damage on the phone’s surface. If you see visible cracks or lines on your phone's screen, then it's most likely your mobile phone LCD screen has broken. Sometimes the damage can be more subtle, such as hairline cracks, but prolonged use will eventually cause the screen to become unresponsive.
2. Observe the Phone’s Performance
Another way to tell if your phone screen is broken is to observe its performance. An iPhone with a broken screen may have a noticeable impairment in display quality, such as lines or sections of the screen that don't function correctly. If you experience difficulty operating your phone or find the screen unresponsive, there is a possibility the screen may be broken.
3. Run a Touch and Display Test
Your iPhone provides several built-in tools to test different parts of your phone, including the display and touch capabilities. The Touch and Display Test is a built-in test in your phone’s settings that checks your iPhone's screen and its functionality.
To access the Touch and Display Test, go to Settings and select General, then Accessibility. Scroll down to the AssistiveTouch and turn on the toggle for it. Once you do this, select 'Touch Accommodations' and then choose 'Touch Accommodations'. Turn on 'Hold Duration' and set it to 0.15 seconds. Then select 'Display Accommodations,' and enable 'Reduce White Point' and 'Increase Contrast.' Finally, launch the Touch and Display test, and run the test sequence to check for screen damage.
4. Utilize a Third-Party App
You can also use a third-party app to test your iPhone's screen for damage. One such app is “LCD Screen Test Patterns,” which is available on the App Store for free. This app allows you to run a series of tests to check for damage to your phone's screen. You can run the tests to check for dead pixels, backlight bleeding, burn-in, and color distortion on your iPhone's screen.
To use this app, download it from the App Store and open it. The app will show a range of patterns, which allows you to test the phone's screen for any defects in color, contrast, and sharpness. These tests run for several minutes, and the results will show if there are any issues.
5. Consult a Professional
If the above methods do not give you a clear answer or are too complicated, you can bring your phone to a local professional for a diagnosis. You can consult with an Apple Store or authorized repair shop to diagnose and offer a solution to your phone's problem. They will be able to give you a better assessment of the extent of damage done to your phone's screen and offer solutions for repair.
Conclusion
While a broken screen on your iPhone is a common problem, there are various ways to diagnose and fix it. The tips mentioned above can help you identify the extent of damage to your phone's screen, and can also provide you with some solutions to fix it. If you're not sure about the problem or are unable to DIY, you can consult with a professional for a diagnosis and repair. Remember, a broken screen can be frustrating but it's not the end of the world, it can be fixed!
