Hey guys,

first of all, sorry for my bad english, I'm a student from Germany.

I got a problem with an iPhone 5 and I hope that you can help me..
My Friend gave his phone to me, asking if I could repair it. He told me the actions would be delayed and that i went so far, that he couldn't shut it down..
Then it didn't start anymore.
So I changed the battery - and it started normally again!
Next Problem was the touchscreen. I quickly recognized that it was broken and so I replaced it too.
Everything seemed normal and I used it like 10 min.
Then I locked it and after that the screen stayed black and it didn't respond anymore.
My computer won't recognize it, and charging doesn't help either..
Any thoughts?

You replaced the touchscreen yourself, or you pay a repair shop?
 
I replaced it myself, but not the first time though.

I also replaced screens of an iPhone 4 and iPhone 6's

That doesn't guarantee that this time something went wrong. Not saying it is that, but it's a variable that muddies the waters..
