Hi, I have an iPhone SE 2016 were my screen is not responding. I would like to try a reset and see if that helps, before I buy a new one. Sadly, for all methods I can find, you need a working screen or they don't work. Is there a way to reset to factory preset by using only buttons?

If that above does not help, you can erase a device via iCloud but I am not optimistic about that solving your problem. It also won't erase it completely, but perhaps sufficiently in terms of what you are hoping to accomplish.

Hi Limnos,
Thanks for your help. Unfortunately it did not work. I think the screen is just broke. But by erasing it at least it is safe.
My screen is not responding.
