Hello everyone. I have recently bought a replacement LCD for my broken Apple Watch Series 1. The package arrived today, and after installing the new LCD, I noticed, that the Apple Logo appeared when starting up the device. After it has finished booting, it went to the watchface, but after that I wasn’t able to interact with the watch anymore. The touch doesnt work, and any buttons dont seem to do anything as well. Only charging it, or force restarting it would make the screen show something again. The touch function does work on the old, broken LCD. I am now wondering whether Apple has any kind of detection against fake LCD’s or not, as this LCD came from China. I am not able to find any original LCDs anywhere, therefore I was forced to buy one from there. I have been waiting several months for it to arrive, only to find out it does not work in the end. Is there any way to fix this, or will I have to pay double the price over at the apple store (if they are even willing to repair it)? I am honestly out of ideas, and I just want to get my watch back in working order. Does anyone have an Idea on what to do?
It’s a new watch, why are you paying for a new screen? The screen prices are ridiculous. Apple won’t touch it now, you’re on your own, you’ve voided your warranty. You can’t get copy Apple Watch screens, they use OLED, not lcd, OLED hasn’t been copied, and I doubt it will, not for an extremely long time anyway, the Chinese have only managed now to sort of make a copy lcd for iPhones, and they’re trash compared to original. Try send the part back and say it’s faulty, try another part.
I have this same problem too!!!. How did you fix it?
