Solved Why Is My Screen Pressing By Its Self Iphone 5S

Chosen Solution

Hi my iphone 5s screen is pressing its self on the down left side. i have changed it multiple times i dont think the proplem is with the screen. is it maybe the touch ic? whats that ? is it replaceable ? how ?

This occurs either by a faulty screen or a screen that is installed on a iPhone metal frame that is pushing against the screen causing it to flex. If your screen can push down noticably due to dented frame then this may cause the touch screen to not work properly causing ghost touching or stops working after a bit until you turn the screen off and on again. This is why I always have a spare screen to test fit first then bend the frame to make the screen sit as flush as possible. Then put the other replacement screen on to make sure I don’t get touch screen issues like this.

Do you mean the screen is “touching” (as if you had touched) screen commands on it’s own? That is usually indicative of a poor quality replacement screen. Have you tried multiple different screens or have you just re-installed the same screen multiple times? Is this following a screen replacement due to a cracked screen? If so, you should try to re-install the cracked screen to see if the problem is still there. Finally, try using the screen without it being fully installed into the housing. There may be some pressure points that only show up when the screen is fully fitted in the housing.
