I dropped my phone and the screen is NOT cracked but has vertical lines on half the screen and the touch screen only works 50% of the time and i need to keep turning it on and off for it to work. Which part do i need to re place? Front panel only or front panel and LCD shield plate? Thanks in Advance.
You may not need to buy any parts at all. The symptoms sound like some loose connectors! Follow the iPhone 5s display assembly guide up to step 15, then follow it in reverse, being extra careful to seat the connectors properly. Also make note of the warning on step 15! Best of luck =)
