If the backlight on your Iphone is dead, you need to replace it. This does usually happen if it received a sharp drop or exposed to liquid.

I dropped my iphone and the screen is shattered. Can it be fixed?

Yes! But obviously, we cannot help you on fixing that because it's a hardware issue. So you just need to take it to a local repair guy or take it to the Apple store or your service provider.

Sorry but your touch screen needs replacement. Take it to the apple store and see if they'll give you a replacement. If they don't there are third party iPhone Repair Services that can fix it for you. There are also free iPhone Repair guide that show you how to fix it yourself.

Iphone screen is dim

You will need to wait for it to dry out. Just one little drop of water getting into the wrong place can cause this. Put the phone in a sunny spot for a couple of hours and see if that helps. If not, hopefully your phone is still under warranty and you can take it to an Apple store for repair or replacement.
