About a Flickering iPhone Screen:


A. Your Screen is Failing:

I have never come across this, firsthand. However, it seems your screen is failing. So take this in for service, ASAP.


B. To Get this iPhone Serviced...

Contact Apple, and setup a Genius Bar Appointment or see an AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) in your local area. Be careful as to where you get this item, ask you may get an error of an unofficial screen. So, to avoid this continual message, it is best to have Apple replace a screen.
