How to remove "Unknown Part" message on iPhone?

The message will never disappear completely. It shouldn't show up on your primary screens every day to remind you after a few days, from what I understand. In other words, it will ALWAYS show up in settings. Your phone just won't publish it on your home screen daily.

You will never be able to get rid of that.

The only way to get rid of it would be to have the display replaced by Apple or an authorized service provider with a genuine Apple display.

It is unlikely in the extreme that they will agree to do so now that your phone has been tampered with.

You will have to live with it, or buy a new phone.

“Tampered with”? Seems the screen was repaired.

The message will eventually go away, but you can't stop the message. Understand the speed part, but when you let a 3rd party replace parts on your iPhone, they don't have access to authentic parts and Apple can and often will refuse to provide support to a device which has non-authentic parts installed and certain features, such as FaceID and True Tone often no longer work on devices with 3rd party parts.

It's not the kind of language that Apple would use to describe it. They're far more diplomatic and non-judgmental about it. My understanding is that Apple's primary concern would be if third-party repairs were botched where something other than the screen assembly might be damaged.

Should I leave my iPhone in the past and restart with a Samsung?? I’ve never had a Samsung but I’m down.

Yes. That's what happens when you have an unauthorized party put knockoff/counterfeit/salvaged parts in your phone.

I don't personally care what phone you use, to be honest. I have no interest in ever owning a Samsung, but if you think it will be the right choice for you, go for it.

No, I understand. The notice in Settings will be there forever and cannot be removed. If you're happy with the screen on your phone, just ignore it. It's not like you spend a lot of time in the settings app.

Yes. You have to live with this forever. If that sends you to Samsung, that really doesn't matter to us. We aren't Apple. We are users like you.

OR, as KiltedTim suggests above, you could see if Apple would be willing to replace the screen on your iPhone with an authentic Apple Screen.

Either way, the choice is yours.

You're welcome.
