Hello, since le last 3 days my 6 plus screen all of a sudden starts to flicker (the top of the scree) and it does not respond to touch. It blocks all manual input and it starts to perform functions on it's own. It types and moves from app to app. The only way to stop it is force it to shut down. It has not fallen or fell into water..
It's possessed!!!! HELP!!!!!!
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.3
I had the exactly issue while updating IOS9.02 to IOS 10.3.2. I discussed with my friend who owned two IPHONE 6 PLUS, they experienced exactly issue after update the IOS 10. My guess is IOS10 caused the hardware damage.
I really wish I could restore my IOS back to 9.0.2.
Does anyone contact APPLE for this issue? I don't think replacing the phone would have this issue solved.
Try restoring it via iTunes if this does not help bring it into your local apple store.
Mine started do this three days ago also. Coincidence?
Have your checked your available disk space?
Your device needs room to breath. If you go to settings-general-usage, see how much available space you have. If you are in mega bits, you need to move some data. If you have gb available, a restore sounds like the only other alternative. Be sure to do a backup before restoring 🙂
I've just finished restoring and so far, everything looks good. Let's wait 24 hours and we'll see.
I'll keep you guys posted.
Well, it's funny you say that. When I started restoring the phone from iTunes connected to my macbook, it told me that it needed a software update. The stange thing is that my software was up to date with iOS 8.3 and now, after the update, it still says iOS 8.3
Anytime you do a restore, it replaces the software(whatever version you are on) with new software from the Apple server, even if you are up to date, it's just part of the restore process. 🙂
HI, sad to inform you that the problem persists! What to Do now?
Did you check you disk space?
Yes, I have over 2GB free
Did you drop the device or had water contact? If not, the restore rules out a software issue, which leaves a hardware issue. Should be covered with your complimentary 1 yr. warranty. So Sorry....
No contact with water.
im currently in Colombia for 6 month and there is no Apple Store here!!!
they have Apple licensed retailer. Will they be able to help?
I had the same problem last week and took a video of it. I have since brought it back to apple store showed them the video, and after a 3 hour system check they have exchanged it with a brand new one. Mentioned that it is a hardware problem.
Just make sure that your machine is within warranty (of course it is) and you have never had your phone fallen on ground before, you should be good.
Good Luck
My iPhone 6 plus just started doing this yesterday -- After reading through several forums, my best bet is that it is a hardware issue. I tried restoring from scratch, and even while the phone was going through the restoration process, the screen was flickering. It almost appears as though the notification center is trying to flick down from the top. What is interesting, is that this problem did not start until I upgraded to the most recent iOS yesterday... it did not start immediately, but approximately 3-4 hours after that. I haven't dropped the phone at all, nor has there been any known water damage.
I have the same problem.... replaced the phone.... same thing still occurs in the new phone!!!! 👿👿👿 Any new info on a fix for this issue?
iPhone 6 Plus is possessed!!!
