My iPhone screen cracked. I replaced the screen and when it was put back together. I get the plain white Screen. The phone is recognized when hooked to iTunes but does not allow you to do anything because the passcode is locked. The phone still rings when called an receives messages. Any suggestions On unlocking or getting rid of white screen. Hard reset doesn't seem to work.

1. Unscrew two screws on the bottom of the phone;
2. Take some vacuum plugs (like the ones that are used to in bathrooms and cars to hang stuff) and suck them onto the screen and pull gently until screen starts to cracking from the frame;
3.Unplug screen;

4. Plug new screen and put it in place crack it together and ***** screws back.

You can also order kit from e-bay or amazon and other places.

Most likely you just got a bad part. As long as you didn't apply too much pressure when putting the screen in, then it's probably just a bad part.

Put the old one back on and see if you get anything. If not then it is the kit that is bad.

Press home volume down and power when phone comes on take finger off power then volume then home. plug into itunes and restore software after it has installed click on new this will wipe phone to new



screen cracked you need to replace screen with another one by a sucker on the screen if will not suck do to the crack glue it on and slowly pull up the screen and remove the screen cables and the hidden cable for the screen (lift the black clip up carefully and pull out the screen in direction of the cable to come out. replace screen and put cables back on and clip cable back down.

You most likely didn't connect a component to the board or one of the ribbon cables. I'd go back into the phone and follow the steps again to try and determine anything that wasn't connected as well as you'd thought.

Thanks

If Apple doesn't replace it for you, you can find a new logic board at iPhone 3GS Repair and there is a guide that shows you how to put in the part at iPhone Repair Guide.

Hi!

If your screen is not having a crack on it then there is a possibility that it can work again.

But if it has a crack then you need to buy a new screen.

Hope it helps..

Thank you for reaching Fixya.

Please leave comments for further assistance.

put it on DFU mode. then, try to restore it using iTunes.

I believe that you have a problem w/the home button. maybe it's pressed all the time, so the phone cannot boot.

try dismatling the screen again, and check the home button contacts.

if you think the contacts are not ok, try to replace the home button.

if yo thinks there's no problem with the home buttons, try to enter to DFU mode:

1. turn off and connect the iphone to the USB.
2. press and hold power button for 5 sec
3. press and hold power and home button for 10 sec
4. leave the home button pressed until the computer recognize the iphone as a DFU device.
5. restore with iTunes.
