Just installed new iFixit iPhone X battery. Now random shutdowns
Hello!
I just replaced my iPhone X's battery and screen using parts purchased from iFixit and following the iFixit guide. Previously, I had been experiencing occasional screen shutoffs and darkenings where the screen goes black but other functions continue to work, until after a few seconds and tapping the power button, it comes back. I also had low battery capacity which is why I replaced that.
However, now I have a new issue: the phone itself is randomly shutting down, more often when I am moving around (like on the phone or walking and listening to audio). These shutdowns appear to be a power failure -- the phone goes black and all functions stop, and it won't respond to any touch or button pushing for a few minutes. Eventually it will go back to the Apple icon and start up again. Sometimes this happens five times in an hour.
The new screen also has one "bright spot" where everything is slightly brighter than the rest of the screen. I don't know if that's a malfunctioning device or if it's because something inside the phone is pressing on it.
Also: the keyboard is super sensitive now, so much so that it has started noticing phantom spacebar touches while I am typing.
Any ideas what I should do? Maybe put the old (bad) battery back in? Can I get a refund or replacement from iFixit?
I found some similar issues in the forum but none about this issue appearing for the first time after doing work inside the phone.
Thank you!
