iPhone 7 black screen with green shades on home button press

Hi,

My phone fell today and now, I only get access to a black screen while the phone is on.

When I press the home button, I see some green shades and I even hear the phone taking screenshot when I use the combination of buttons to take a screenshot.

Also I hear the sound when I plug a charger.

Because I see those green shades, I think the display is okay from a hardware perspective, right?

And because I hear the sound of different functionalities, I guess the software is working as well.

Could you help me find out what is wrong and what I can do?

Thanks

It’s broken. I would say get it repaired, but honestly, it’s not worth it. It’s time for a new phone.

I need to add an update.

I could final turn the phone off by pressing the volume down and button on the left for some time.

Then turned it on again. I can say it is on, because when I push the home button, I feel the button and it is active.

But now, no green shades on the screen anymore when I press home button.

Also I cannot hear the sound of screenshot or the sound when I plug the charger...
