Question

I have to turn off and on my touch screen to make it work

Apr 6, 2017 10:23AM PDT

Hello, I've been living with a problem which starts to really anger me.
Sometimes, kinda a lot, my screen stops respoding, and I have to turn the screen off and on to make it work again. Does anyone know what can I do about it? Thank you.

What phone are you using ???

Hard to offer advice without knowing more about the phone you are using. What make/model phone ? Is the phone still in warranty ? Are you just powering off the phone and turning it back on ?

Go to https://www.idoc.eu/guides/en and click on the model of phone you have. Then follow the instructions under "Replacing the display." That should help!
