IPhone 4 :: Screen Went Grey With A Faint White Line Across Top Quarter And Now Flashing?
Jun 22, 2014
My Iphone was fine as I was texting my friend and then all of a sudden the screen went grey with a faint white line across the top quarter on it. If found out I could fix it by resetting the phone which I did. After this, the screen came on and all 4 corners of the screen started flashing and I've tried switching it off and also resetting it. none of this worked! I
Just started happening today. When I turn my phone on, instead of getting the lock screen I get a white screen that just has the emergency call box at the bottom. I can get no further than this. When I touch emergency call, I can see the bar at the top with pending notifications, but no way to get there. I can hear the incoming text notification. I can receive a call. On the white screen, I can see the faint images of home and back at the bottom. I have rebooted, removed the battery. when I start in safe mode, I see the same white screen, but it does say safe mode at the bottom, but still can't do anything or get any further.
My iPhone 5 was working fine until I put it on the charger then the display turned from my background to grey/black/white bars running vertially across my screen. I have held down the home and power button to reset the phone and still nothing. The phone will not go to sleep or respond in any way (including the silent button). I have had people call my phone and again, will not respond.Â
My iphone stopped working. I can only see a thing white line on the screen and the screen does not respond at all although turning the phone on vibrate makes it vibrate. The screen has been cracked for some time but has worked fine until today.
The blackberry curve 3g which i purchased only a week back has started giving me a strange problem/ Atleast 7-8 times a day on its own the screen of the device starts flickering and fades away with a grey/white band at the bottom as can be seen from the pick. It has never been dropped/drenched.
i just bought a new xperia ray a week ago. at first, the white line do not appear with the sony ericsson logo. i already updated the phone to 2.3.4. then after a few days every time i turn on the phone or plug the charger, a white line appears flashing at the bottom of the screen with the sony ericsson logo.
My blackberry bold 9700 screen keeps going white continuously, then today it went completly white for the whole day, i tried to plug it in and it comes up with a battery with a red line through it!
I turned off my phone then I put the SIM, after that I turned the phone as usual: Sony Ericsson -> Rogers -> then a blank screen with a white line on the above of the screen...
My iphone 3g suddenly crashed in the middle of texting. The whole screen shut down. I pushed the home button and on-off buttons - as directed, the white apple came up...then all I get are red and white lines on the screen.....nothing else!
After having updated my N900 to PR1.2, I now find that when I reply to, or create a new message in the standard e-mail client , my automatic signature is inserted in grey instead of black, and all linefeeds are left out so the whole thing appears in one line instead of four which is how I have it.Sure, I can edit it and re-insert the linefeeds and make it all black, but this is clearly not the point. It worked fine prior to 1.2 and should continue to work fine after the upgrade.
One quirk of this 'bug' is that, once I've opened a new message (with the incorrect signature), if I change the originating e-mail address (I have more than one e-mail account) by tapping on my e-mail address at the top and selecing a different one, the signature 'repairs' itself and the linefeeds re-appear so the signature then looks fine except that it's still in grey.
When I use the camera, it just displays 8 vertical bars of equal width, each a different shade of grey. If I cover the camera then the whole screen goes black. If I take the picture, the same image is saved and can be selected and viewed. Device details below.
Bold 9900 on T-Mobile (UK). Only bought it a couple of weeks ago.7.1 Bundle 1149 (v7.1.0.342, Platform 5.1.0.276)Only a couple of apps installed, loads of free space.
I expect this will be an RMA. Very disappointed that I can't find a contact phone number for Blackberry considering how much I paid for it.
I have a Sony xperia z5 bought two weeks ago, today the phone suddenly turned off and the white screen with Sony on it just keeps flashing on and off, the led light is red. I've tried the volume button and power button but didn't work, I've also connected it to the laptop and ran repair on Sony comparison, after all this it is still doing the exact same thing..
I have wifi at home. Sometimes the icon on the phone is white, sometimes it is grey.what is the difference?I have even stood right next to the router and it's been grey.Is there something in the phone that I have to change to FORCE it to use the wifi? I can't see any means of testing the speed. If I could, I'd see that GPRS gets about 5kb/s, but on wifi it should get 1.3mb.
My IPhone 5S is about 8 months old and still under warranty.
4 days back faint gray lines started appearing on the bottom of the screen. After another day a small black spot appeared on one side of the grey lines and it has been growing since then.
I visited Apple Service Centre yesterday. They could not diagnose the issue so they sent some pictures to the Singapore team for escalation. I had a word with the singapore team today and they tell me that the black spot is likely due to pressure damage and they will not cover this under warranty.
On being quizzed further, they do not have any clue why the grey lines have occurred.
On being asked how come there are no other signs of damage either to my touchscreen or to my screen body, they hilariously replied the pressure damage is from inside the phone.
When asked how they think I could have applied pressure from inside my phone, they are clueless again.
My wife's Torch 9800 started playing up yesterday, upon sliding the screen up it would stay blank (although it's actually on just very very faint) until you slid it down again slightly at which point it would work as normal. It's gone downhill since then and now just stays faint no matter what you do with the slider.
i am using BB8520 curve, there are two white lines appeared in my display.one is very close to the lower end of the display and the second one (appeared today) is around 1cm above
My blackberry has developed a horizontal white line problem that has worked its way up from the boottom of the screen to the top. The effect has been to create a like a heavy smoke screen over the top of the main images so to speak. how this coiuld be fixed. I have already taken the battery out and out it back.
Just got my new Moto X Pure. I'm seeing really faint vertical lines, most noticeable on a white background with the brightness on high, all over the screen. I'd honestly say they resemble some kind of light burn in if I didn't know better. They are quite faint and unobtrusive but I get distracted by it. Is this normal for a LCD TFT screen?
I just bought my BlackBerry curve 8520 yesterday and I am trying to connect to my house network and I did, but next to my wifi connection is a white line, and I am not sure what that means. So I am not able to connect to the internet, without my data plan? How do i make that white line a Green check, one?
I got the S6 Edge yesterday and it's my first Samsung phone. I've notice a faint blue tint on the bottom half on the screen. If you open a new tab in Chrome you can see it there against the white background. The top half of the screen is a nice white color.. there is definitely some kind of darker difference on the bottom half.
My Nexus 5 was working fine, and hasn't been dropped/damaged, but the screen has suddenly gone green and very faint. It still works but I can't figure out what the issue is. My guess is hardware?
When I say green and faint, I don't mean just a little bit, I mean a green/yellow hue all over the screen, and faint like someone has applied super high contrast in a photo editor.
Phone is stock, not rooted or modified in any way.
I've noticed that my phone captures something and appears on the bottom a mm size whitish line, looks like its a small portion that doesn't get filtered with the rest of the picture. Couldn't find anything online about it I bet its just mine. Chance anyone sees this themselves??
I was talking face time, and my screen went gray and is now locked in that position. None of the buttons work. The phone has been plugged into the charger for the last twenty minutes. Nothing works.
My Blackberry 8520 curve suddenly hangs giving a white screen and when i restart it - the screen remains white. After i put it into charge - then only a successful start is done. So the only solution as of now i have - is whenever my blackberry hangs - i need to remove the battery - insert it again - and immediately put it into charging via USB/Electric-Power. Even if i re-insert the battery - the white screen comes - unless and until i put it into charging Earlier i was guessing - my battery was weak.
I've seen it many times being brightly black and white, and under Manage Connections it shows a Green checked symbol. But most of the time the WiFi icon is grayed out and under Manage Connections it has a white little line instead of the green checked symbol.
I have new iphone 5s, some time it shut down it self, the screen color changes to blue or gray with no response of the phone and the end shut down completely.
I recently updated my old iPhone4 to iOS 7.1.2 and Garage band 2.0.1. Now, garage band will not start. It's stuck forever on the grey screen with the "Garage Band" title and nothing else. And after half a minute it backgrounds itself.Â
With iOS6 and the old Garage Band the phone worked just fine.
I can understand if it went slowly, had less tracks, etc. but this is not acceptable.Â
Is this the same as an upgrade swap? I actually talked to ATT via online chat, and they said once an iPhone 4 is ordered, its stuck to that line. But im pretty sure thats not true.So I want to add a line with iPhone 4 then once I receive her, put it on my primary line, use a dummy phone on the new line, and cancel data on the new line. It works out because I need a new line anyway, I have unlimited data on my primary line, and it saves me some $$ in getting the iPhone at full discount price.
The only thing I was worried about was being able to cancel data, but the ATT rep said I can cancel data at any time. And to order online, I would need to add the single line to my account and order it, once I receive it then I can switch to family plan.Will I need to do the same call ATT and give them IMEI's of everything to swap? Anyone done something similar?
The phone rebooted after an undated and the loading bar stops after 3/4 of the way. I have tried taking the battery out several times, putting it on charge then taking the battery out to reboot but it still stops.
