    I replaced my screen with digitizer. The phone worked well for about a month. Now the screen is flickering. Tried to reset to factory settings. Same status. Replaced battery. When switched on the phone, felt some heating on the bottom part of careen. No display is the present status. When tried to reset, still flickering… Any possible solution. Thanks for your time..

    I followed all the instructions and my phone is working perfectly except that the induction charger no longer works. Any idea what might be the problem?
