My phone's screen suddenly turned bright purple this morning & is now stuck this way. It will not turn off or do a reboot/reset. I've tried plugging it into my computer & the computer doesn't even register it's being plugged in.
My LED indicator won't stop flashing a purpley-blue colour. I have an app which means I can change the colours, but the thing I have set to this colour is texts and I definately don't have a new text. My LED is turned off for Bluetooth and I don't know what else it could be! It's been flashing for over 12 hours now!
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?
I turned my phone off and now it wont turn on. I tried to reset and nothing happened. I have also tried to force it into recovery mode and the screen is still just blank.
I just bought my iPhone 5c a few months ago, and a few minutes ago I just realized that the color on the screen has changed colors. The colors on the screen vary depending on how the screen is angled. The colors vary from purple, green, and pink tint. I've tried turning my phone on and off as well as resetting it, and nothing is working. The color tint is just in the middle of my screen from the top to the bottom of my screen; not on the sides, however it is still very hard to see my pictures in my gallery or even use social networking sites or anything for that matter.
I just bought a new apple iphone 4S and its has green and purple striples on it when not in use, is this norm? I took it back to the Verizonwirless and they said it was from the display protector on the screen?
My I phone 4 has 4 purple stripes taking up the whole of the screen. This has happened before ( around 2 weeks ago ). I tried powering down and resetting. The phone had plenty of charge on each occasion that this fault appeared. When it happened previously I left it at home for a week whilst I was away on holiday and when I returned the battery had completely discharged itself. I plugged in the charger and switched the phone on and the fault disappeared so I'm hoping the same happens again.
I have noticed of late, when using my camera that sometimes I get purple lines going across the screen. This only seems to happen when using the camera via the native Apple "Camera" app. Â
I just recently, about 4 days ago received an E72 in the mail from Nokia's website. I have been using it, and love it so far. The only think is I took my phone out of my pocket today and realized there was a purple blur on the screen. I restarted the phone and it was slightly better. I waited a few minutes and it was gone. Now I am wondering if I should send my phone in to nokia, just to see if the screen is okay and to make sure it doesn't get worse. Let me know what you guys think I should do.Thanks
I just got a Moto X 2014 in the mail and I love everything about it besides the size and the screen. When I turn the brightness down, especially when looking at gray tones, the screen takes on a dark purple color. So, is this normal or should I return the phone?
I finally bought a N8 and receved it yesterday after wanting to get one for a year now. I had always held back as I was hoping they would sort the purple screen issue out. I specifically wanted to buy a phone from a proper Australian dealer as I wanted it to be A tick and have 24months warrenty. First thing I did when I got the phone was charge it, turn it on to the analogue clock screen saver, lock the screen and then press the menu/home key. There it was, half the clock was purple! So I was sure I had the fault I was hoping not to get. I was gutted/disappointed. I really thought it could not happen to me. I have not even put my sim card in, used the phone or removed the protective shipping stickers yet
I do not know how to tell the age/build date of my N8 but when I ordered it last week, the dealer was out of stock and had to get new stock In from Nokia in Brisbane I believe. The box/packing looked the same as what I had seen 12 months ago. The phone did not have Anna on it. I do know that the latest N8 from Hong Kong are shipping in newer packaging that show the pink coloured N8 on the box.
I spoke to the shop today and they said this was the first time they had heard of this purple screen issue and that they have had no one else mention it to them. I could not believe it as this is a world wide spread issue. They rang Nokia in Brisbane and Nokia supposedly knew nothing about the 'faulty purple screen' issue. So they are either denying it and there is this huge cover up or they have honestly never heard of it.
Since the shop said it was news to them, maybe that's a good thing and I got 1 in 100 faulty one or something. I know this shop has sold about 37 on ebay plus more from their online shop and retail shop too, so if what they are saying is right, then all those buyers must be happy. I actually bought it from their online store and not on ebay. It gives me hope that mine may have been a one off, but i doubt it.
So I am trying to work out what to do. I think I have every right to get the phone swapped for a new one. Its definitely faulty but what do I do if they send it to Nokia in Brisbane and they say its fine?
-What I want to know is how have other Australian buyers delt with the faulty screen issue here? Has Nokia Australia officially acknowelged the problem? has anyone made them aware of it? Are there any known online shops in Australia selling good nokia N8's with known good screens? Has anyone had a screen replaced with a good one recently? I believe there is a new one with part number MP40 that fixes the purple tint screen, but i have only hear of people in europe getting this screen.
I specifically want to know information and experiences and opinions from Australian N8 buyers and owners who have bought a N8 with pruple screen fault in Australia.
The notification LED keep blinking with purple color while the screen is off, and I'm sure there's no application with that notification color. How could I know which application is using that color?
Looks almost like a bruise on the screen, only when the screen itself is showing black (i.e., screen is on). I must have dropped the phone at some point... any way to fix this?
When my phone is cold, when i turn it on the screen is purple and green and i need to turn the phone off and on again to fix it, the phone is about a month old. and pointers or warranty information. the picture i added is not my phone but is what it looks like when it messes up
just bought it today, no more stock to exchange throughout Malaysia, now I've to go to NCC to get it fixed the purple screen... WTH! it's a repeated problem, it already haunted many N8 (including one of the 2 I own), now this one again... quality dropped..
The front facing camera produces a purple line through the top middle of my display and when I snap a photo it remains. Is this hardware? I tested it with the google camera app as well. This is a Samsung Galaxy S6
3G iPhone, 8 GB, 3.1.2 firmware, jailbroken and unlocked.Been working just fine, and every now and then I am rebooting it with no ill issues.This morning I went to reboot it again (via SBSettings), but for some reason.I tapped "Power off" instead of "Reboot"; the phone wouldn't turn ON now.no matter how many times I try to. I tried both with the USB cable plugged in and not plugged in, it will also go in DFU but that's that.All it does is show the apple logo w/ black screen for a few seconds and then die again.Again, it has been working just fine prior to this. What would the problem be, any suggestions?I am not able to restore it at this time as I am not currently at home.
Yesterday my iPhone 4 turned itself off and won't turn back on, it was fully charged and it's been charging all night. I've tried holding down the home and power button but nothing has happened.
I've searched and can't find an answer to this. Lately (more and more) my Tour is taking pics that are purple and half-screen. Anyone know why? Is there something I can do to fix this? I pull my battery every morning and charge my phone every night. Please help, I have a 2 year old who has finally decided to let me take pics of him and now I'm missing the cuteness..
My partners iPhone 4 has turned off and is quite simply DEAD. No response when pressing sleep and home, nada nothing, ka put... I've tried CPR but nothing!!
I was using my iphone 4 today when it just shutoff, I tried turning it back on by using the power button. I tried turning it back on by holding down the sleep button and the main button at the same time for over 30 sec.I had it fully charged but it still wont turn on. I put it on the charger for about an hour and it still wont turn on. I havent had any problems liek this on my iphone before. I havent dropped it, I havent jailbroken it. I have tried DFU.
My iphone turned off by itself and it wont turn back on, tried resting it, holding down the buttons but nothing is working, tried plugging it in to the comp and charger, and nothing.
