How to remove this “important display message”.

I’ve had the important display message in my screen for a week now, it’s not gone anywhere, is there anything I can do? it’s really annoying 🤣

The shop did not lie to you. Even using a genuine Apple display you will get the screen message. The only way you don’t get the message is if it is coded out using the Apple horizon software which as you may guess only Apple can do. Or if the original IC chip from the back of your old screen is soldered onto the new one which is never going to happen as it would destroy the new display.

Hi, you say the non genuine screen warning goes after 15 days. It’s now more than 20 days and it’s still there, it doesn’t help when someone says you shouldn’t have fitted a none genuine screen in the first place. It’s my phone surely I can do this, there wasn’t any warnings before. You (Apple) said yourselves it would go in that time, please help!

Why would you pay twice the cost for an out of warrantly phone? It's frustrating that Apple spend money developing features to simply annoy customers.

No one here is Apple. This is a user to user forum. Read the Related Article about the message. It will disappear from the screen in 4 days, and from base page of the Settings app after 15 days. But it will never be gone from Settings/General/About.

You had the screen changed to a non-Apple screen. That message will appear forever in Settings/General/About, so whoever you sell the phone to in the future will know it doesn’t have a genuine screen.

No, it will go away by itself.

These notifications don’t affect your ability to use your iPhone or your display.

You will see a notification on your Lock screen for the first 4 days that you use your device and in the Settings app for 15 days. After that period, you can find the notification by going to Settings > General > About.

Same!!! It's been 6 days and it won't turn off. So frustrating!

Not really. If the phone is out of warranty there's no reason to use OEM materials particularly as they're so overpriced. Same reason peiople service their cars at local garages when they're out of warranty. When you buy 2nd had goods that's part of the deal.

I do swap from phones that are sold for parts and the screens are OEM,the pop message does not indicate that screen are fake but just a serial number mismatch. Buy 2 brand new iPhone 11 and swap the screen,that message will definitely pop up.

Apple has decided to monopolize the repair on all their products. ALL new iPhone’s screen and batteries have an IC chip on them. No matter if you’re using an OEM screen or battery from another iPhone, you will always get the “non-genuine Apple part” mesg. Only way to get rid of it is to transfer the IC chip from the original screen to another OEM Apple screen. Don’t even bother transferring it to an aftermarket screen. However, the batteries will work if you transfer the IC board from the original battery to an aftermarket battery. Just like the Home Button and Dot Projector, those will require micro-soldering to transfer the chips onto another OEM part.

To all those saying “you should have”, etc., not everyone has the luxury of going to an Apple store or certified technician during the pandemic.

This wasn’t an issue until the latest update but none of us realized we had to go to an Apple dealer we still paid $200 for the screen and didn’t save any money so that’s not the reason Otherwise we all would have gone to an Apple dealer

Even if you swap with Original LCD from apple the message will still display. That happens in 11 series and newer models. The best option is to just visit the genius bar or have apple authorized technician change it for you.

As you can’t get an “Original LCD from Apple” unless Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider does the replacement your post is meaningless. And if Apple or an AASP does change the display you won’t see that message.

swiping to the left isn’t an option in settings. Is that where you mean?

There is no way to get a genuine Apple display if you are not an authorized repair facility, and authorized repair facilities can install the screen correctly, so your point is moot.
