Hello-
I need some help with a used original iPhone i recently purchased from eBay.
When I first got the phone, I put my SIM in, and dialed my father, to make sure it worked. I know the portion of the screen was working at the time, because my father's area code is 720, and the 0 is on the portion of the screen that is not working.
After syncing to iTunes, the portion of the screen stopped working. I have tried restoring, and resetting, but to no avail. I find this odd, as the phone stopped working after being on for about 30 mins plugged in on my desk. There are no cracks or damage on the screen, and the phone is overall in mint condition. The water sensors are white.
If there is anything else anyone can suggest, please let me know.
Thank you very much community!
