There are many things that can go wrong with an iPad digitizer. An iPad and its external parts are often quite expensive, this is why if anything is ever damaged or stops working, it is best to try and fix it yourself. This is because, most of the times the cost to fix the iPad is higher than the gadget itself. Before you rush to the nearest store and pay a load of cash to get something fixed you could have done yourself in the first place, consider the following possibilities and try these steps:
What Are The Issues Of An iPad Digitizer:
- Sometimes dead pixels appear on the screen of an iPad. The best way to test for these dead spots on the screen is to download an application that allows you to draw. This way you can go through the entire screen and see exactly where the spots are located.
- Sometimes the iPad acts like it has a mind of its own; this is when the touch screen goes completely haywire.This is relatively difficult to identify as opposed to the issue mentioned above. If you want to test it, go to the settings and switch off the option of auto-lock. Keep the home screen of the iPad open allowing it to sit that way for a while. If an application opens up while you wait then there is a problem technically known as the phantom touch syndrome. This is when the iPad acts like it has a mind of its own and keeps opening applications without your command.
Now if you have tested your iPad and it is showing both the above problems alongside some serious troubleshooting concerns, here is what you need to do next:
- The best solution to solving any problem is that you reset your iPad. Hold down the power button and wait for your iPad to shut down completely. Though this may not fix the problems you are facing with your digitizer but they immediately fix any troubleshooting issues.
- Maybe the problem is with the digitizer itself, hence it is best that you get a new one and test your iPad with it. This is the best possible way to see if your iPad is acting up or the digitizer. However, if the problem continues with the new one as well, it means that the connector needs to be replaced.
