About LinkBacksHello!
I recently dropped my iPhone about a feet high on concrete. Its currently protected with the incase wrap-around skin. It landed on the USB port side of the phone.
My problem now is that the touch screen is not working. I can't slide to unlock it, etc. All the hardware buttons still work though but I cannot access the iPhone core itself.

Re: Touchscreen broken Maybe I should start investing on an iphone casing with a face cover to protect my screen from accidental spills.
