Nokia 6280 :: Black Lines Across Screen Rendering It Black?
Mar 4, 2010
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?
There are two black lines running across my main screen. It does not show up when I first turn on the phone though. Please view below. I'm quite new at this, any suggestions or thoughts/tips?
I bought a Nokia 5530 in Xtra Vision recently and I've been having minor problems..

Then I was charging it Good Friday and took it out to make a call and the screen went white as if I was turning the phone on as nokia came across the screen please help why is it doing this?
4 months ago I bought nokia c6. But now the screen starts displaying some black lines, but the touch working properly. The touch is working good but the lines are displayed. But when I open the slider do not comes, but after closing the slider the lines starts in zigzag motion.
can anyone please help last night i noticed some small black lines appear on screen and now they have got bigger over night. everything was fine up until yesterday and they just suddenly appeared.
I dropped my phone last week and shattered a part of the screen. The phone continued to work fine and I kept using for a week before I replaced the screen, following these instructions I found on this forum and using this part from ebay. Replacing the phone went pretty well. Now the touchscreen and other phone features work with the new screen, but the screen has black and/or green lines at the top all the time:
What problem does this look like? Did I get a bad part, or did I mess up while replacing the screen?
I also had one tiny little square rubber part on the table when I was done reassembling the phone, but all buttons are pressing normally and everything, besides the screen, is working. The part doesn't seem important, but here's what it looks like:
We have a Nokia 6720 which has developed a black line across the screen.By the way its just out of warranty, typically and yes I did name the file 6270 by mistake.
The screen on my iphone 4s has gone balck and sometimes comes up with blue lines, but I cannot get it to reset. I can still receive calls and can hear that the phone is functioning normally (ie. I can swipe the screen as I would normally do to unlock it and I can hear it unlock) but I cannot see any information. Is there a way to reset the display? I have tried holding down the power and home button for 10 seconds with no luck.
My IPhone started to crash in a weird way. When it crashes randomly, I see that the whole screen is black with few bright lines and then its turns off immediately, sometime I been able to start it but usually it starts again and crashes the same way again after few seconds or minutes. when its connected to electricity its usually working fine.
I tried the following: 1. Replaced to iOS3 , iOS4, iOS5 2. Replaced the battery twice 3. Replaced the power connector 4. Replaced the power adapter then changed the battery again.
When I replaced the battery it worked for a month before same thing happened again. I have to note that if I am not touching the phone at all, it will stay on till the battery will end. Nothing works! Its Apple I bought it for their reputation and I'm disappointed!
Newbie here with a brand spanking new Xperia 8.This may seem petty, but on the camera viewing screen there are two black lines down either side, similar to a widescreen TV broadcasting a show that is in a non-widescreen normal format.
I have convinced myself that I have done something to make this happen and that it wasn't like that at first. So my question is, can these be removed in some setting somewhere is this how it actually is all the time?
Being glued to her iPhone at all times, my Daughter has managed to drop her's in the bath. It now displays only a random collection of black lines on a white screen. Is it utterly broken? Or is there some way to fix it?
i got my iphone 5 screen fixed, and since then the screen this is what has happend and I can't use it. iPhone 5 completely black & white glow in the middle with pink lines vertically down the screen
my phone was in my pocket and suddenly the screen went blank, the warranty people are saying that my lcd is faulty, cud there be anyother software or hardware reason for it.
I was hoping someone could help me Ive had my N97 for nearly 9 months now and when i use the keyboard the screen goes black and stays black. Ive tried to restore the factory settings but it asks for a lock code and i do not know this.
I was using my phone this afternoon (5310 xpressmusic) after finishing my conversation after pushing the end button my screen went black. Any ideas on how to get it back? the phone still works I can receive and make calls I just can't see any thing. I have tried turning it off and on, removing the battery and waiting before replacing.
I have a nokia- c6-00 and its screen is black , the phone still turns on and off,when i touch the screen it vibrates, but i can not do anything like text or call because i can't see what im hitting and im not sure that its responding, i tried resetting it by taking out the battery, i managed to update the software without the screen, and i tried the reset codes in the sliding keyboard but nothing worked. is there anyway to fix it myself or do i have to take it to where i bought it?
I have a 16GB Nokia n96, and it was working completely fine till a couple weeks back the screen went blank, so i assumed it had switched itself off. I took the battery out and tried switching it back on, but the screen didn't come on. The phone vibrated once like normal on start-up, then the keypad lit up and the buttons on the slide-up bit, but nothing can be seen on the screen. I can also hear the beeps when i press different buttons, and also I could remember off by heart where my music player was on it, so i pressed the right buttons and my music actually started playing!
My N95 has been on the frits! It sometimes shows garbles colors, or a weird scanline diagonal draw of the screen. Sometimes if I slide it enough times the screen is drawn correctly but only the top left corner. Other times it just sits there on a black (no backlight) screen. Any reason why it's doing this?
Just purchased a Nokia 700 for my wife and she is very pleased with the device. When trying to add a startscreen the screen gets black and I choose the option of deleting it. Is this an error or what? I myself is using a N8 and just waiting for the Bell-update when I see how pretty my wife's phone works with Belle installed.
Recently I purchased an E75 off of Ebay. The problem is, whenever I try to utilize the main camera, all I see is blackness. The viewfinder does not seem to work at all. Scrolling through the camera toolbar takes a while and tooltips remain on the screen without fading away as they supposedly should. I have tried taking picture regardless of the issue, but I recieved an error message which says "Unexpected error has occurred. Restart your phone." or something similar. I get the same result in Video Mode.I have done hard resets and firmware updates to the latest firmware possible, but to no avail. What could it be? Would I need to take it to a Nokia Care Center?
I frequently have black screen when i receive a phone call when i am outdoors !? When i am indoors, this does not happen.Anybody else have the same problem ?
my n97mini have a problem... sometime when i receive a sms,the screen just gone black... it happen after i unlock the key... the screen basically is black but the phone still functioning as can make phone call and receive call also... so far,the only way for me to get back the screen to work would be take out the battery... does anyone else have the same problem as me? just now was the 3rd time this problem occur... it does not occur very frequently... could b due to i does not restart the phone?
I upgrade my firmware but when i was finish the phone was black.The only thing that happens when i press the start button is that is vibrates a little.Otherwise is "dead"
everything on the phone works except the screen is always black. when i turn on the phone, the keypad lights up and the start up nokia tune plays, but there is nothing on the screen. if someone rings the phone, i can answer and it works fine. i can connect to the phone to the pc but i cannot see anything on the phone screen. i have watched many videos on Internet showing how to change the screen and i am pretty confident i could do it for myself but before i spend money on a new screen i want to know will replacing the screen fix the problem?
when i open the main camera slide, there is black screen shown and cant view anything ... the after a while,this sentence appears: "an unexpected error occurs, please switch the device off and restart".. what happens to it? how to solve this problem~~ thanks in advanced...
