We often see several issues when the touch screen fails. Delamination, or a bubble glue leaking appearance is the most common. We also see associated touch response problems like unresponsive is some or all areas, erratic random jumping around touch. Also- sometimes the backlight burns out and leaves the screen dark or dim. Our screen replacement fixes all of these.
