Apple iPhone

Do not mess with major components at your whim else your phone could stop working.

That sort of warning is what you're looking for?

Well I certainly would appreciate being warned in advance that getting my faulty screen replaced locally will result in a brick.

Apple is like Aamir Khan.

They may have done it for security reasons .. but they did not inform end users about this serious change.

This lead to "class action lawsuit"

Now I am sure their lawyers told them that this case is strong (against Apple) and hence to control the damage they released fix

Btw I still have no idea why they allow "touch sensor" to read data from phone.

Touch sensor shud just scan fingerprints -- convert it to digital data (0 and 1) and send it to operating system

This digital data should be compared by operating system with one that is stored in file system.

This would have avoided the whole issue and also allowed ppl to use cheaper 3rd party sensors if they wished without worrying abt security.

Apple is sued over unresponsive iPhone 6 touchscreens

Apple has been sued by owners of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus smartphones who say a design defect causes the phones' touchscreens to become unresponsive, making them unusable.

According to a proposed nationwide class-action lawsuit filed on Saturday, Apple has long been aware of the defect, which often surfaces after a flickering gray bar appears atop the touchscreens, but has refused to fix it.

The plaintiffs linked the problem to Apple's decision not to use a metal "shield" or "underfill" to protect the relevant parts, as it did on versions of the iPhone 5.

"The iPhones are not fit for the purpose of use as smartphones because of the touchscreen defect," according to the complaint filed in federal court in San Jose, California.
