Anyone had these issues with their iPhone 6 Plus? Or any iPhone for that matter? A flickering grey bar at the top and the phone doesn't respond to touch. Sometimes it'll
Ghost touch the screen without you touching it.

Yes, just spent $164 yesterday. Your screen is going bad. Mine was doing the exact same.

Where'd you go? Is it working now?

I went to a place called FixAll right outside of New Orleans, a place that specializes in iPhone/iPad fixing.
Took about 10 minutes to put the screen in, worked for awhile, then started locking up today minus that gray bar. Going to take it back tomorrow and see what they say.
Will update tomorrow

Mine did it while it was still in warranty
Apple Store gave me a new phone replacement.
I'm not sure if a screen replacement is a permanent fix. There is something in the phone that is becoming disconnected. If you attempt to gently bend the phone, the gray bar will typically appear.
Eta: it is a fairly widespread issue that the folks at the Apple Store should recognize immediately once you explain the problem

The Apple Store replaces out of warranty screens on the 6+ for $129. I had mine replaced and they couldn't get the replacement calibrated correctly so they gave me a new phone.

Just letting you know I'm switching to Apple. I've never owned one so I'm kinda excited.
Should I wait for the 7? Or will the wait be too long?

It'll be out in September. I would wait. You can see if it's worth it to you or if a 6s would be fine and you can pay less.

You're fricked. You have to get a new phone.
