The Issue

How to fix Touch Screen Unresponsive Issues iPhone?
So you will need to follow the procedures below and hopefully one of those steps will be able to solve the problem for you:
1.So the first thing we are going to try which is the easiest method is the Force restart or hard restart. So hold the power button and home button at the same time. When you see the apple logo you can let go. On newer devices its power and volume down button.
2. If that one did not work then try this next. For this one you need to go to settings,general, reset and then Reset all settings. Do backup your device as this will erase everything on your device before completing this process.
3. Finally if all else fails you can try restoring your iPhone. First go to settings,icloud and disable the find my iPhone feature. Next you will need iTunes and connect your iPhone, next select your detected iPhone in iTunes. From here you should see what IOS version you are running along with other data about your phone.
You will see two options for update and restore device. So go ahead and hit the restore options. Allow the process to complete and your device will be stored to a clean condition and this should fix the problems you were having for some for the unresponsive touch.
4. Finally if all else fails you can try updating your device to the latest version of IOS. You can do this from the device with an active internet connection or from iTunes itself.
That completes the process lets hope one of the above methods was able to fix your Touch Screen Unresponsive Issues. I do hope it did and if so please share your experience below in the comments and do also share this article on social media as it would be appreciated.
I am currently dealing with this on a iphone 6 s plus. Was told it was the digitizer. So I purchased a replacement screen, took old one off and new one on and it worked for maybe 5 min then back to u responsive. I’ve hard reset ive recovered it in i tunes and I’ve used DFU MODE. so far nothing has fixed it. Apple store would not touch it and tried to upsale me. So now ive taken it to a phone repair shop hopefully ill find out what the problem is.
Lets hope so Paul. Let me know how that turns out.
It turned out that in my case it was never the digitizer or the original screen that was the problem. The actual board itself had a issue with it which is why the replacement parts also didn’t work.
I see,Thanks for the update.
