My iPhone 5 touchscreen is not responding to touch! Last night, my phone was working just fine. I plugged it in overnight to charge, and when I checked my phone this morning, the touchscreen had broken.
Here's what's going wrong now:
- The touchscreen isn't responding (I can't slide to unlock), though the screen is on.
- There are a bunch of lines on the screen, which disappear after the phone stays on for a few seconds or when I click the sleep/wake button.
The power button and home button are working as they should, I just can't get past the lock screen because I can't swipe to unlock (it's not registering the swipe or any taps).
What can I do to fix this?

I would recommend bringing the phone into your local Apple Store or using the official Apple repair site to send it in.
Sometimes, even when there is no obvious cause for screen damage, it can still happen somehow. This happened to a previous phone that I owned, I sent it in and the screen was replaced, fixing the problem.
