Short Circuit? Poor Test?
Just recently my iPhone 6 stopped functioning. I had to buy a new screen after I spilled water on my iPhone and it didn't turn on. I then did a reboot by holding skeep/wake button for 3 seconds then holding the home button. The apple logo showed up. I was able to use my iPhone, but I noticed a few things: one, the phone was sensitive, if I put it down on the table normally the screen would immediately turn purple and turn to look black, but if you looked closely it was just a really dark purple (occurred over the whole screen at the same time). Second, my iPhone's camera was messed up (Not the screen camera). Taking a regular picture without flash was fine, but a picture with flash would result in a really dark photo. I decided these problems did not bother me so I didn't do anything about them, but instead bought a new screen to see if it would fix the sensitivity.
When the phone would turn purple then really dark all I had to do most of the time is click the sleep/wake button and then click it again and the home screen would be back to place. I had to do this multiple times sometimes. The screen would still show the dark color after doing the sleep/wake a few times. However sometimes the iPhone would get stuck on the dark screen. I would hard reset it and then reboot it (doing this a couple of times as it sometimes didn't work the first time).
One day I put my iPhone on the table normally and as usually it turned purple and then black and stuck there. I tried turning on and off however my lock screen didn't show up. I thought "Oh just hardreset and then reboot." I did that a few times and it did not turn on. I then left it for 80 minutes (school periods) and then tried it again in the next class. The phone turned on! But soon after, I put my iPhone down again and it did the same exact thing. I just hard reset the iPhone and did not try rebooting as it turned after the 80 minutes I didn't touch it. I tried again before my practice and my iPhone did not turn. I tried about 2 and a half hours later and it still didn't turn on.
I gave my iPhone to my neighbor and over the weekend he said it was short circuited most likely at the battery port for the flex cable because I didn't unplug the battery when I removed the screen before I gave it to him. I'm thinking that the iPhone couldn't just stop working one day. If I hard reset it before removing the screen, how can a current be moving if nothing is being used for power? Also he said he tried different screens and battery's, but it looks like he didn't use my homebutton the hard reboot. Also the backplate flex cable is broken so the home button wouldn't work anyway.
Any insight or feedback?
Thanks!
