Expert Answer

It could be a software issue that can be fixed by either a restart or a reset. If that doesn't fix it, then it's a hardware issue that would require your phone's screen to be replaced. Remember to check your warranty coverage before doing this.

Question

Is there a way to fix the back of a cracked iPhone X without the repair kit? I don't have the money or time to buy one.

Community Answer

No. If you broke the glass back of your iPhone X, you'll have to get a kit or take it to a professional.

Question

What if my phone is not cracked, but damaged on the inside?

You'll need to go to an Apple Store or a third-party repair shop. It's a bad idea to try to fix internal components using web guides, as it's extremely easy to turn your phone into a brick.

Question

What about fixing an iPhone 6s screen?

You need a new iPhone 6s replacement screen from a shop for about $25. Same method but you need a mini screwdriver for the inside parts and a screen wedge device. You lift open the old screen and place on the new one if you can connect the insides together.
