Did you try calling apple support and asking for an exception? Since the green screen was caused by them and not the user. That’s what worked for me with my phone being out of warranty, you just have to be persistent and explain the situation well. Also had it checked and a diagnostic report was given at the istore stating that there’s no physical or water damage to my phone, then I was granted a one time LCD replacement free of charge. Only had to pay for the diagnostic

I’m using iPhone 13 Pro. It’s only been 18 months. I recently upgraded the software to iOS 16.6 and ran into this issue. I consulted Apple’s service provider and their recommendation was to replace the screen which would cost around 28k INR. They said that it would take around 5 to 7 days.


I checked with a local service provider. The problem was with the voltage supply to the screen. They were able to fix the issue without replacing the screen (at much lower price). My phone is working fine now.


I think that the Apple’s recommendation to replace the entire screen is very vague and expensive. Besides, this issue seems to be caused by or related to the software update to iOS 16.6. They should really look into this and definitely provide more cost optimized and tailored solution for fixing this.

Dont get panic!


Hiii All,


This is the common issue you may face with the Iphone 13/14 pro/max models.


I also own iphone 13pro Max and I faced the same green issue.


The screen automatically turned green.


My phone was out of warranty and I purchased it from US.


I visited nearest apple authorised store in India and submitted the phone.


They checked for physical damages as there were none they agreed to replace the display free of cost. (you should have a legal bill for the iPhone issued by an authorised seller)


Just remember do not open the phone in any local shop or do not try anything on your own. Immediately run to nearest Apple Authorised service center.

Try connecting it to latest version of iTunes on PC using USB cable and force restart the phone.

i had similar issue which got resolved after I did the same procedure.

  1. Connect USB cable to PC
  2. open iTunes app
  3. connect USB cable to iPhone
  4. force restart - press volume up key and release immediately , then press volume down key and release immediately. Then press and hold power button.


repeat this steps at least 3-4 times.


See if this works. Coz it surely worked for me.

all the best

Tôi cũng bị *** vậy ngày hôm qua, sau 16 tháng sử dụng. Tôi đã đến đơn vị ủy quyền để tư vấn và họ báo giá thay màn hình mới là khoảng 9 triệu Việt Nam Đồng, tương đương 50% giá trị máy. Rõ ràng đây là lỗi sản phẩm hàng loạt của Apple thì hãng nên có chính sách hỗ trợ hợp lý đối với người dùng.

Hello All,


It was the same issue that I had faced with my 13 pro, after the IOS 16 update. It has been hardly 13 months. It was indeed frustrating. I went to store and they suggested to speak with Apple customer care. Upon long discussions, they had agreed for an exceptional case and repaired it for free. What I can recommend is to speak to the customer care and present your case (since damage has not occurred because of your actions) in a professional manner and there maybe high chances they may cover your costs even if your warranty just lapses 1-2 months ago.


Peace !

Try putting your phone in freezer lol I know it’s little strange but it’s the only thing that works for mine. If I put it to sleep it won’t wake back up till I put it in freezer. I’ve tried EVERYTHING hope it helps someone. I really hope apple does right thing as well! I took really really good care of my phone cuz I’m a little tough on them and this is what I get lol I was so ******

I know a few tricks to fix this issue. You can try using these tricks.

1. If you missed the update, you should update your iPhone.

2. You may have installed a third-party app on your iPhone. Uninstall the app and check if this fixes your issue.

3. Reset all settings on your iPhone.


Lastly, you can check your iPhone if it's still under warranty. Visit Apple device's coverage page to check your iPhone's warranty.
