iOS 17.1.1 Breaking Touch on 15 Pro Max - eviltoast

Just a word of caution for other people: The latest iOS 17.1.1 might break wired charging and touch screen functionality on the 15 Pro Max. I was one of the unlucky ones, for whom charging and touch screen stopped working after installing the update and rebooting. Side buttons work fine, but touch screen does nothing and the phone will only charge with wireless charging.

Currently doing DFU restore to see if this fixes the issue…

Edit: DFU restore fixed the phone and backup was a couple of hours ago, so not a big loss. Hopefully future updates are less buggy.

    It’s only touch functionality that is broke… Like, you can turn the volume up and down again, perfectly normally.

    Quiet, Loud, Quiet again. Little bit louder.

    No problemo.

      Oh, so it’s only touch that’s broke. No biggie then. Just send messages with the volume buttons via Morse code.
