I have had my Green iPhone 5c with AT&T since March 2014, I have taken great care of this phone, I used it regularly and dropped it maybe once or twice on carpet, nothing ever major. Top left corner of my phone popped out but it never seemed to mess with the function of my phone at all so I left it be. On September 26th of this year I was out at dinner and dropped the phone on its face and once I picked it up the screen was completely black, but lit, as if the back light of the phone was still on. I tried restarting the phone, charging it, and even calling and texting myself from my friends phone. While the phone was still showing apparent signs of life as in, vibrating, playing ringtones and sounds of screen shots and charger connections, the screen was still lit but completely black. After I could not find why my phone was messed up I let it sit and die for a few weeks. I then plugged it into my computer with the charger and it did not light up in black like it was doing before. The phone then started to vibrate, continuously every 5 seconds while plugged up. I have tried to hold the home and power buttons but that apparently only turns the phone off like I expected. I opened up iTunes and it just asks me to “respond on iPhone” and I cant obviously and the phone keeps vibrating every 5 seconds. I want to fix this phone since I have been using an old iPhone 4 for the past month and cannot take it anymore. Im hoping this is something simple and will take all the help I can get. Thank You! P.S. I have not done ANY repairs on this phone, no screen, battery, etc. replacement. It is the original phone I purchased.
This is not a big problem. Open up your phone, and try reseating the cable, but most likely, slap a new display (yes, new screen) on there. If that doesn’t solve, come back and post. Jessa
To stop the vibrating and to reset the iPhone, the fix is to carefully disconnect the battery for a couple of seconds, if you want a minute, and then connect the battery again and your iPhone will be fine. Then, you may or may not need a new screen.
Replace your phone with new display,it sure may help u.tq

My iPhone 5c had a broken screen and I had it fixed but then it broke again and now it has a black screen with no back light and everytime I plug it in to the cable it vibrates continuously Do I just need a new screen or is it something else? I also don’t want any of my photos or data deleted if its something more than the screen that needs to be fixed. PLEASE HELP
