Green Tint on my iphone x

Hi, I have the same problem with my phone. Thats almost exactly what my screen looks like too. I’m using an Iphone X and yesterday, the screen just decided to get a green tint and would flicker every now and then. I panicked so i turned it off right away, not wanting to cause anymore damage. I also thought that maybe it got wet or something but i really doubt it. It happened really randomly and I’m kinda freaking out. Hopefully someone has a concrete solution for this.

“...So "if your phone is bust get it repaired.” doesn't fit here....”

It applies in all cases, the link I gave https://support.apple.com/en-gb/iphone/repair/service will apply before or after warranty ends. You will get a new screen or a replacement phone. The cost will depend on too many factors to go through now.

It is of course entirely optional, you also can live with it, or recycle it, or get a full price new phone, or use your country’s consumer protection laws.

“...Which may trigger people to think that the company is doing this deliberately ...”

yes definitely go for the therapist.

“....Also, Apple is claiming only the iPhone 11 and 12’s are affected....”

Please quote the article written by Apple. I am interested.

I am not aware of any recall screens since the iphone X touch problem.

It can be caused by a drop, or moisture, or overheating, or just plain worn out.

Out of warranty or Applecare+ it requires a paid-for repair.

My iPhone X now has the exact same issue after updating to iOS 14.0.1. The green bar is persistent and the screen flicks on low brightness. I’ve done hard reset,resetting to factory settings and even wiped out completely then installed iOS via iTunes. Nothing happened. Am frustrated to the core knowing the repair would cost a fortune. Suggestions please.

If 13.6.1 does not fix the green tinge (allegedly caused by overheating) then

Screens wear out or break occasionally . Out of warranty you need to pay for a repair.

I strongly recommend the Apple repair service in order that faceID will continue to operate.

iPhone Screen Repair & Replacement - Official Apple Support

For some iphone 11

The company has announced a replacement program and confirmed that affected devices were manufactured during a six-month period between November 2019 and May 2020. 

Yes an update can cause hardware to break but it is the process rather than the software. Updates put extra stress onto the phone and any existing weakness can snap during it. To suggest “Apple broke my phone” is balderdash.

Your screen or phone is busted. Any software glitches in ios14 were patched.

Anything other than Screen or Battery will be a replacement phone and the price will depend on your warranty status.

I too got the same issue. Green tint exactly like the picture posted in first reply.

I too did an update two months back, and after that this issue started. It used to go off once in a while, but will come back.

I am using a temporary phone now, since cost of screen replacement is too high.

I dint drop my phone or spill water or anything. This happened from a software update. Am surprised.

Is apple intentionally doing this?

Seriously this happened to my iphone x too just yesterday. I didn’t drop it, in fact I was using it when it suddenly went green like this. I’ve restart it, force reboot, update to latest ios and nothing worked. Is this a software or hardware issue? Repairing the display will cost me $400 so I think it’s not an option

It can’t be a coincidence that this many people have the exact same issue, I also now have the green top right corner and green tint across my display, possibly the OLED screen is failing? Very disappointing from a company like Apple, and an out of warranty repair probably costs more than the phone is worth.

This is not a result of over heating or something. Its definitely a software issue which apple hasn’t been able to resolve with ios13.6.1. I am having the same issue since last 4-5 days. Didn’t expect this from apple.

its a bug that need to be taken care. Alot of people are facing this issue as the latest update could not resolve the issue.
