Hi, I have an Iphone 6 that was dropped and the screen went black. It was taken to a repair shop, but they said it could not be fixed. I took it to another place, they opened it up and said that there is a missing plate over the A8 chip. And now there is a faint picture on the screen that you can only see at an angle. I tried adjusting the brightness but that is already as high as it can go. I have reset the phone and still nothing is fixing this. What is the problem and is it fixable?
Backlight is usually a straightforward repair for trained micro soldering experts. You can try to find one near you by browsing the website link I have posted on my profile here on iFixit. Most if not all of there guys welcome mail-in repairs. You can also head to your local repair shop if they have the skill and tools and ask them to repair it for you, or they can subcontracted to someone who can. HOWEVER, the fact that the plate is missing over the A8 chip means someone tempered with this phone already. Why? When? Was it purchased used or new? History is important.
Probably backlight IC faulty on the motherboard. Youll have to ask a mobile phone technician for it to be replaced or repaired.
why the screen on my iphone 6 is dark ?
