I dropped my iPhone today and then the screen turned white. I could still press the buttons and stuff but the screen stays white. I tried ll of the stuff on these forums like hard restart or w/e thats supposed to make the apple logo come up but the screen stays white. What do i do?????
 
this happened to me before. I noticed if I pushed on the screen a little bit everything would come back, but it would turn back to white randomly. There was really no noticeable damage to the phone so I got it replaced.
 
Re: White Screen

I too tried everything, but the screen itself was damaged during the drop - although not visible. I took it into the Apple store and they replaced the screen on the spot. None of my information was lost.

The guy at the store explained that they used to replace the phone in its entirety, but Apple realized it was cheaper to just replace the screen at the store.
