IPhone :: Screen Went Black And Start Vibrating After IOS 5.1 Update
Apr 17, 2012
I have updated my iPhone 4 from iOS 5.0.1 to 5.1. The screen went black and start vibrating, I couldn't restore or have it hard reset. I let it vibrating for 4 hours until the battery went off. Then I used the restore through iTunes (lock+home keys for 10 sec then only home key) and manage to restore the phone with iOS 5.1 (not 5.0.1 that was the initial iOS - I don't know how it did that since i factory reset it. The problem now is that I got a big rectangle (75% of the screen) in the middle of the screen that flicks all the time (when the screen is black you can see the rectangle in the middle of the screen as grey). The phone is brand new, I just activated it today.
What is the cause of this...anyone know? Phone was on my desk at work, then just started vibrating constantly, and the screen was black - no buttons responded, including the two obvious ones to soft boot. Plugged in the phone to pc and to A/C and pushed and held buttons, and no response. Then about 3 hours later, pushed and held the two reset buttons, and got the white apple and phone appears to be working again.
Is this some kind of signal the battery is dying? Sure was weird, plus the phone was inoperable for several hours until it decided to play nice again. Is it time for a trade out? It's a 4G about a year old. When it rebooted, it asked me for my FACETIME password, and my IMESSAGE password and I hit CANCEL for both questions. My phone was not inuse when the vibration thing started - very weird.
I updated my software yesterday or today (cannot remember) to iOS 7.1.2, and now my phone keeps rebooting itself after it automatically locks. (I dpn't know if the software update is related to my phone not working) The screen turns black and nothing is on the display, however the phone is still on. I can occasionally hear incoming texts, also when called, phone does not go straight to voicemail. My iPhone will occasionally let me restart it by holding down the home and power button. If I get the phone to work and come on, I cannot lock it, otherwise this problem starts all over. WELL, I accidentally made the mistake of locking it, and now it won't do anything! Also, phone is not recognized by iTunes!
Anyone have any idea why my nuron 5230's camera wont start up? it just gives me a blank black screen and when i try to switch it to video mode it tells me "memory is full switch memory?" then i click yes but it just crashes and brings me back to the home screen. anyone have any idea whats wrong? or any fixes? i already tried to take the battery off, restore to factory settings, and that reset [press and hold green, red, camera, and power button till phone boots up] but its still like this.
I accepted the update for ios and now my phone is going from black screen to apple screen. I have tried turning it off and holding both buttons NOTHING! I also hooked it up to my computer and went onto iTunes and it does not show as a devise?
i turned my iphone off during a software update and now whenever i try to turn it on, it goes to the black screen with the apple symbol on it as if its going to turn on but it never turns on...it just stays at that screen. what can i do to turn it on?
My iPhone 4 was in the middle of an update and froze. I tried to turn it off but now it has a blank screen and is buzzing, cannot get it to shut off, or stop buzzing. I did not get it wet, and I have no idea what to do next.
I have a 16gb iPhone 5s on the verizon network. I dropped a small weight on the back and it cracked the glass next to the camera. The lcd seems undamaged but does not work. When i plug the phone into my computer the computer recognizes it and i can do a recovery but it constantly vibrates in 2's like the phone is getting plugged into power. I have tried to restart the phone by holding the lock and home button for extended periods of time with no outcome.
Device info:Blackberry Bold 9780 on Orange UK - Software below.I just tried updating my BB to the latest OS, and after the update, I waited until it said "safe to remove", and then unplugged it. I waited 15 mins and it still didnt do anything, so I pulled the battery out but it didnt work.The screen is working, as I can still see the dead pixel that was there beforehand, however it just black, with the one dead pixel.I tried downgrading it after the the firmware below (I'm not sure what it was originally on) but that didnt work either.
I have a question: I recently my Xperia mini pro (the internal name is K17) get back from a repair process. In this mechanical keyboard is repaired, the way the phone is about 5 months old. After I get back the phone, I've been updating it with PC Companion to the latest Android 4 ICS, which is offered by SE here in Germany. After the update I now have the problem that the phone at least once a day, usually several times the system or maybe the screen seems to freeze. Mostly it reacts no more (the screen stays black), sometimes you can press the power button and the lights of the back and menu button lights up (the screen is still black). Only removing the battery bring the phone back to work again. After a quick phone call to the Supporthotline from SE I performed again with the PC Companion a repair installation with the Android 4 ICS. This has not solved the problem. Has anyone else experienced this? How can I fix it? Is this a hardware problem with the screen or is it the ICS update? Is there an official way back to the 2.3 Gingerbread Stock ROM without send in the phone to SE again and without losing the warranty?
I left my N8 while it was updating , when i came back the screen says Nokia PC suite has stopped working but after i closed the program and opened it again the update page says "Update Complete" after that i noticed that the PC suit/Computer is no longer detecting my Phone and the Screen is already black. I tried to turn it off and On (only felt the vibration), Already tried the 8-10 seconds hold on Power button (and felt the 3 vibraions), still not working. Also tried the 3 finger thing to no avail. I felt regret for updating my N8. I shouldnt have click that update button on the Pc suit.
my nokia n8 was in the middle of updating through my laptop, then the whole think froze the laptop rebooted itself and now the phone is dead a black screen and not responding.
I have sony z3 dual. My screen freezes all the time.what should i do. I applied the last software update today..was so happy that ussd code error got solved. But now this screen error.. So many errors after updates.. When I try to call screen blinks and volume is still very low and..etc ....
last two days i got my new z3 devise my first android handset after update i experiensed two problem first was the blank black screen and the notification and quick setting panel was not sliding properly so i decided to reinstal android using sony pc companion after update i switched my phone itkeep restarting continuously every time start installing progams it show customizing apps and then restart and do the same finally i could fix it when i got my 64gb sd card out of phone and switch it on, it work good with no issues.
since i update my phone to ICS 4.0.4 i experience camera issues. When in camera or video mode the screen is black (cant see nothing). But it works. If i take shot it flicker for split of second and shows image taken for that spit of second then goes back to black screen.
before ICS update it was on gingerbread. I tried with KIES but phone developed a fault. It wasn't allowing me to pass "Samsung Galaxy SII" screen. I went to local shop and they sort it out. So i don't know how they did it. Two days later i find that camera is faulty.
Still running WP8. Camera won't start up, display is black after "Loading..." But my first problem is the display, "Graphics Processor?" Is starting to fail? it started with my game freezing in progress, then turned into the display turning black for a few seconds, and has now turned into a scrambled display...
I am helping out a friend who has a Nokia 6280. She claimed that it's infected by a virus because her problems started after using a Bluetooth headset. I don't quite believe this as I've heard it's more likely to be struck by lightning than to have this phone infected with a virus. Anyhow, the problem is the following: When you power on the phone, you get the Nokia handshake, then the phone loads. However, as soon as the phone loads, a bunch of black lines appear to streak across the screen rendering it black. That's not a huge issue because it goes away after a few seconds. Now I've read this could be an issue related to the ribbon that connects to the screen, but the screen turning black does not occur in any other instance other than right after when the main screen appears. I can play with the slider all day and nothing will happen, but like clockwork the problem appears after the phone loads.What gives? The phone works fine otherwise, so what could the problem be? If you need any more information I will be happy to provide. I've uploaded a video of this issue here (using my 5800 XpressMusic at night - the quality isn't that great sorry, but it does show the problem). Pardon the audio - my kids were watching Spongebob Squarepants so you might want to turn the audio all the way down! I guess my question is two-fold:
1) can this in fact be the result of a virus? 2) if this isn't due to a virus, what is it due to?
From yesterday, my phone suddenly shows vibrating screen... I mean, the screen suddenly shakes itself in 4 partitions lik when a tv tries to get signal.. I don know what happened suddenly. Den after some times the screen goes blank and I'm unable to use my mobile.
Has anyone else noticed an issue where you get haptic feedback anytime you touch anywhere on the bottom of the screen? I mean like on the very bottom even below the dock icons.
I updated my N97, and after that my phone did not work properly, the old version was 2.0 and the new is 2.1, the charging light did not work and i get black screen when i turn my phone on.
I have had my phone connected to the wall charger for hours now and it just keeps flashing the Sony Xperia screen and vibrating. The LED light turns on for a second then turns off. It's like it is stuck in a loop.
I have a iphone 3g and I am having big problems accessing my apps. Everytime I go to use a app e.g facebook or ebay the scrieen goes black and then goes back to the home screen. It also seems to be taking forever to got to make a phone call. What can I do as one of the main reasons for getting this phone was using the apps
