If you have replaced the screen of iPhone 7 or iPhone 7P and the phone has such problems of screen jumping
or intermittent or permanent touch failure after a period of usage, please lock and then unlock the screen for a
few times to see if the screen works as normal. If not, it might be because of the incompatibility between the
replaced screen and the phone, which mainly occurs when replacing the LG screen with a Toshiba one. However,
the Sharp screen is compatible with the Toshiba screen.
Due to the different suppliers of the screens, not all the screens of iPhone 7 and iPhone 7P are the same. There
are numbers on the backlight panel, from which you can distinguish the different suppliers of the screen. To see
the numbers, please remove the screen and back plate, and find it under the LCD flex cable. With the unique
number, you can know the screen supplier for each phone. Different suppliers are coded with specific numbers:
Toshiba: Starts with C11 and F7C
LG: Starts with DTP and C3F
Sharp: Starts with DKH and C0N

There are encrypted chips on the screen of iPhone 7, iPhone 8 and iPhone X, among which the light sensors of
iPhone 8 and iPhone X have been encrypted, causing the detection failure of the light sensor, resulted from the
replacement of the screen. As a consequence, the screen is unable to automatically adjust the brightness. While
the encrypted light sensor of iPhone 7 might lead to touch failure once the screen has been replaced.
It is suggestive to use the photosensitive repair tool to deal with the problem of touch failure. The repair tool can
read and copy the photosensitive data before rewriting it into a new screen. Alternatively, replace with a new screen.
The pedestal mounts of iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 are the same. The repair tool for iPhone 8 can be used for iPhone 7.
It is easy and simple to rewrite the photosensitive data. Just copy the photosensitive data from the iPhone 7 screen
and rewrite it into a new screen. Then install the phone. And that’s it!
