My phone got the “black screen of death from being overheated one light and my iMessage app has been acting a mess for over a week now.

So for over a week now my IMessages haven’t been sending regardless of my internet and wifi being stable, and updating my phone. So let me explain. One night, I was on my computer on a video call with my boyfriend because my phone was acting very stupid and so it was on the charger while we talked for a couple hours and then I eventually fell asleep. I woke up and my phone was on like I could feel the buttons and when I switched the silencer on and off I could tell it cut on and off but the problem was the screen was black. This has happened before so I just force restarted my phone thinking nothing of it because usually my phone is a little slow afterward but only for an hour or so. Especially my messages. But my messages are slow even after I shut my off, just to power it down. And that’s another problem but it’s whatever. When I open the app, the screen is black for a while. My iMessages won’t send, and whenever I turn my iMessage off to just make my messages send through SMS, I don’t receive messages back. Because my boyfriend and a few friends calling worried and sent screen shots that they sent messages but I never responded hours on end. They were responding but I wasn’t getting anything. But in the pictures you’re about to see I’ll explain what the problem is if you don’t see one.

this is what I see for about 15 seconds before I can see all the messages or people I contact you know before I see my pinned messages and things like that. So now look.

you Can see all the sent message failures because I try and send stuff through iMessage, but nope. So I circled my best friend Génesis’ profile. If you see no problem there , the problem is I pressed on it but it grey’s out for a while before showing our chat. And even after the chat shows look:

it looks like nothing really but I can’t type anything before what’s circled goes away (not that it’s going to send anyways). And what you’re seeing is the “general population” what I see after the black screen and before tapping on a contact. So basically just unnecessary glitching. Not only is it annoying, I can’t get important messages out and I know that everyone can’t talk on the phone when possible because , life. I’ve tried everything. Switching iMessage on and off. Switching my phone on and off. Force restarting my iMessage app. Force restarting my phone. I then even cleared space on my phone and updated to the iOS 16. And while my stuff delivered with iMessage a little while after. It started doing the same thing again. Please I would really like a solution because it’s been going on for almost a week and a half now.
