Did you try restarting the phone?

Just googled the different options quickly for you:

Easiest option would be to press one of the volume buttons + on/off, and wait for 30 seconds.

If that doesn’t work, there is a forced restart: quickly press and release „volume up“, do the same with „volume down“, then press the on/off switch and keep it pressed until the Apple logo appears.

Good luck!

If hard tester (vol+ > vol- > power until you see Apple logo) then physical damage on the table.

So weird, I think I have a similar issue but the green/white hue is different on my phone. The phone itself and touch feedback seem to work but I can't read anything on the screen. No recent damage and it just began a few hours a go. I was using it, put it down, and picked it back up to a screen similar to this

looks like the recent iOS 16.1 or 16.1.1 is causing the green screens on the iphones, no info on this from Apple yet

Water damage is my bet. That's how my Galaxy S7 Edge looked back in the day. In my stupidity, I regularly took it in water. One day out of the blue it turned green.

I didn't drop it or had any sort of accident with it. The only thing I did was regularly shower with it to listen to music.

I work on these phones and say with high confidence that this is a damaged oled. Could be from a drop, or hitting it against a wall, blunt force drops which keeps the glass intact

I would say screen damage because of a drop or water or moisture. If you it doesn’t have any signs of physical damage and have insurance I would say you try to claim warranty

Need a new display. It probably got damaged but not quite enough to have a visible effect, until you went down some stairs, or tapped on it too hard and “the last straw” broke the phones screen.

This comment needs to be higher! I just learned about the hard reset key combo yesterday. Worked for my sister's iphone, just press and hold power doesn't do anything on iphone.

Sorry it didn't work in this case, but this comment needs to be higher! The key combo is so unintuitive that you need to learn it so you can use it when needed. No way I would have figured the reboot sequence on my own.

Had a similar issue happen back on my iPhone 5s. I was on vacation in Sri Lanka (very humid). Put the phone on the night stand to sleep. Next day a I woke up and it looked similar to yours. I could still see everything on screen, but the display looked like a TV from the 80s. I guess from the humid air it got damaged, cause it didnt get wet or got dropped before that.

I work at a major Carrier and always have people say I don’t know it just happened, then I go to the gym and see hella people with there phone in the pool or setting in the sauna. Like jeez that is so bad for your phone. Not only that but can’t you leave it in the locker for 20 mins.

paulstelian97 t1_ixr6bzq wrote

Try regular reboot and hard reboot (hard reboot is mentioned in a different top level comment already) to exclude software glitches. If the issue persists or if it's visible on the Apple logo screen you may have to service the phone. Check your coverage, phone might still be new enough for warranty or Apple Care to work.

They’re obviously advertised as such, yes. Doesn’t mean your phone can’t be damaged by liquid or moisture. And soap isn’t good for your phone either.

Replying to sendeet (#665,345)

The display assembly has multiple layers, so your OLED could be fucked but still responsive to touch. Replacing the display assembly is still the official repair option, assuming the problem isn’t on the logic board (i.e. extensive liquid damage).

Actually it does. My current phone I’m typing this on has been completely submerged several times. Other than the “water detected in charge port, wait to charge” warning, it’s perfectly fine….

JollyRoger8X t1_ixt1wjq wrote

> It didn’t fall or anything

So you purchased it brand-new? Or are you actually claiming it never ever fell or anything before you owned it?

If you purchased it brand-new, how long ago did you purchase it? If it's under a year it's covered by Apple's warranty. If not, contacting Apple support is still worth a try since they sometime )often) cover defects after the initial warranty period has elapsed.

Just had this happen to me today with my almost brand new iPhone 13 Pro Max. Everyone kept asking if the screen was black and I was like "nope, its a shade off of mustard yellow".

I will say the entire process of filling an Assurion claim has been a huge pain in the ass since I can't do anything with my phone.

Assurion tech support "Please enter the phone number you're calling about". Dude, the screen doesn't work!!

Verizon, "Please enter the phone number on your account". Dude, the screen is broke!

Both of them: "Please download the affidavit, fill it out and upload it with a photo of your picture ID". The fuck? MY SCREEN IS BROKE!

Both of them: "Please back up your phone before returning." Again, my screen is broke, no face id, no tapping the passcode. It's broke. smdh

Did you try:

Press and quickly release the volume up button. Press and quickly release the volume down button. Press and hold the side button. When the Apple logo appears, release the side button.

For an emergency fix without a service center available that’s the best way to start.
