    If you had your phone serviced by an unauthorized 3rd party, it's unsupportable here and untouchable by Apple. If you're having a problem, take it back to whoever fixed it.

    Doesn't matter when it was done.  You had a 3rd party fix your phone, no more support from Apple.

     

    as already stated take it back to the 3rd party that fixed your phone.

    Maybe you cant figure out why i did this but let me tell you that here (EGYPT) you cant find an authorized apple store so you can get your iphone screen fixed. Your only 2 choices    1-Unauthorized Third part.

                                                                                                      2-Replace your iphone with a new one from TradeLine                                                                                                               store (authorized by apple) and pay almost the same                                                                                                             amount you paid for your iphone when you did buy it.

                                                                                                          and let me note that iphone here is not that cheap you                                                                                                           might think.

    But thanks for your answer anyway.

    "Why" you did it is not relevant. "Why" won't change the fact that your phone is now completely unsupportable through any authorized channel.
