ios 9.0.2 update -> Now touchscreen problems!

Which model iPhone do you have? I have the 6+ and it's been a nightmare ever since iOS 9.x.x. I took the advice of a couple of people here to use the beta iOS 9.1 Beta 5. It is a world of difference!!! I would say its better than 8.4.1. It's fast. It does have its quirks but it's so so much better!!!! It makes you enjoy your iphone again. I would honestly say that my best experience with an iPhone would be the 5s on ios7.x.x. Apple has been going downhill incrementally for the past couple of years and it shows it continuing the downhill trend with the 6s From the reviews and complaints. So I would say give 9.1 beta 5 a shot. If you don't like it , you can revert back to 9.0.2. Or go Samsung.

I've already sent numerous feedbacks on this issue already. I decided to just send them a link to this page. After sending them a link during the wifi debacle, it seemed to quickly clear up. Hopefully when they see that the problem isn't isolated, they'll begin to work on it.

Same touchscreen problem since 9.0.2 update.

iPhone 6 Plus, latest 9.0.2, force restarted, newly restored as per clueless Apple customer support.

The iPhone becomes completely useless without the touch screen capabilities.

Apple, please release new iOS update with the touchscreen fix ASAP!!!!

I'm going to install 9.1 Beta to see if that fixes it..

Ok just installed 9.1 Beta and the touchscreen is working back to normal.

For those of you still having touch screen problems on 9.0.2, the only real way to fix it

is to enroll and update your phone to 9.1.

Nevermind, the touchscreen is unresponsive with 9.1 Beta iOS also.

APPLE PLEASE IMPLEMENT A FIX (or I will go to the store and buy a Samsung Galaxy)

Disappointing to a very long time Apple customer.

the problem will persisst because is not from ios is from touchscreen you must open your phone and between the screen and the case of your iphone top right is some wire cable you must put some double tape because the wire is no longer working well

to be sure is NOT from ios try to push on your screen in right corner where is the battery icon and press the power buton after that because if the phone is not in sleeping mod he will not working , try this when the phone is not feeling the touchescreen not when freezing or lag and be sure you not pressing to hard because you will crack your screen

I have the iPhone 6 Plus; the upgrade to iOS 9.0 was a NIGHTMARE. It would not let me sign onto my phone afterwards, the touchscreen would not respond after the 1st number entered. Eventually, I was able to log onto my phone, but the touchscreen would malfunction on a regular basis; as I use my phone for work, it was a disaster. iOS 9.0.1 did nothing to fix my problem; 9.0.2 made touchscreen response even worse. I returned the phone to factory settings and reinstalled through iTunes. It worked until I REALLY needed my phone, such as an incoming business call that it would not let me answer. Last Saturday, I turned my iPhone into an Apple store for a new one. Thank GOD it had iOS 8.x.x! I will NOT upgrade the iOS until a "for certain fix/upgrade" is provided by Apple AND many reviews of good results.

That was great!! But how are you gonna restore all your info with iTunes? It'll restore with the latest iOS unless there's a way to do it without the iOS upgrade. LMK. I think I'm just gonna go that route too if I can restore without requiring to upgrade the iOS.

thanks

From iCloud; I already did this. Lost almost no data. Phone now working GREAT! NOTE: I did NOT re-install from iTunes as I MOST certainly didn't want iOS 9.0.2 re-installed!

On my iPhone 6, I now have apps launching without me touching anything! In the middle of using an app, others will open and close. Since Apple is aware of the many issues with the iOS 9.x updates, why rush to release 9.1, just let us go back to 8.4.2 ??? Then you can really do a thorough beta test of 9.1! This update mess is going to cost Apple many users. When my contract is up, I seriously will consider an android based phone. Another reason to leave iPhone... An Android based phone will fully work in my 2015 Mustang, where as Apple only does the basics, oh yeah, and it no long support Microsoft Outlook Notes.

neacsu,why would so many users suddenly have faulty wires, immediately after updating too 9.0.2? My iPod touch worked flawlessly, before the update.

Same problem !!

I am using apple products since my first iPod bought in 2005. I never faced ANY problem with any of my Apple products. Even my iPhone 6Plus was working fine till I upgraded iOS to 9.

I don't think its a problem with the hardware. My iPhone 6Plus was working fine till I upgraded to iOS 9. Its very frustrating that Apple couldn't fix this issue in 9.01 & 9.02. I did everything as suggested by Apple support but there is no resolution. My last option is to give my phone to authorised service provider who is likely to keep my phone with him for 5-6 days. Thats another problem.

Why there is no official Apple communication on this so far ?

I did the 9.1 update and the problem is still there. Cant hardly make calls and the phone just now entered random numbers on my password and I think I'm locked out.

Same here. iOS 9.0.2, iPad Air
