I have a 6+ and I wonder if its sheer size is causing the issue.Â
When on a phone call the phone frequently leaves the screen on, or the screen constantly flashes on or off. Consequently I am dialling numbers or trying to do a facetime call whilst on a call or turning it to speaker phone etc.Â
This is very annoying and when talking to clients a little embarrassing.Â
I am on the latest update, and someone mentioned calibrating the compass, this has no effect. Not sure if its related but safari and mail will frequently not turn when I turn the phone.Â
my x8 keeps turning the screen off when i make a call, and does not turn on for at least 2 minute, meanwhile the call is still on, and can be recording voicemail etc without me knowing because the screen will not turn back on!
Issue with the proximity sensor shutting the screen off when you're about to key something in or multi task while on a call? The phone keeps shutting the screen off while I'm on call. This usually happens when I have to use the phone to search for something or enter in a number, multi task, enter extension ...
How do you turn off the in call notification beep for incoming messages? If you have the volume turned up for the voice call it's piercing when a message alert goes off.
I have been on the phone with Verizon 3 times. They tell me my call waiting is turned off on their end, as I requested, but it's still interrupting me daily. Is there a way to turn it off on the phone?
does anyone know of a way to turn off the sound that happens immediately after a missed call? I have some idiot friends that will go out drinking and periodically call me at 1am when I have to get up at 6am for work. I also have an elderly gentleman that will call my number in the middle of the night, thinking I am his son (my number and his son's number must be very similar). I can set the ringer to "No Ring" for these people, I can turn off vmail alerts, I can turn off text alerts...but none of it matters because when one of them calls, I still wake up due to the missed call sound that happens immediately after the call. I can't just put the phone on silent because I would need to be alerted if some type of emergency would happen with my family. I could just get a landline and put the phone on silent, but I would rather not shell out the extra $$ due to a poorly thought out missed call sound on a cell phone. Really, what is the point of including a "no ring" feature for an individual person, if you can't turn off the missed call sound? In reality, what happens is the missed call sound becomes person's ring tone.Also, does the Envy Touch have this problem? I am due for a new phone in the spring and was looking at purchasing this one.
I dropped my iPhone, cracked the screen and LCD, replaced both, as well as the inner plastic piece holding them together. Now, the LCD doesnt turn on, the touch screen will not respond, and the sound isn't working. The backlight wont even turn on !
It is still on, responds when I plug it into USB, it still vibrates and has its files.
And the kicker is that it was working for a few seconds, when I first put everything together, I just took it apart to get the home button to be seated properly, and bam, all of a sudden everything stops working.
Frustrating indeed ! Would anyone be able to help me out please ? I am sick that it seems I will have to buy another part, but, if it will fix it then it's worth it !
tl;dr :Replaced iPhone LCD, glass and central plastic piece. iPhone screen worked for a few minutes, then stopped. Now, screen will not work but phone will respond to USB and when I flick the switch to put it in silent.
My Iphone 4 keeps turning off /black screen. I plug it in and I get the rebooting screen most of the time. I have had to completely restore it two times in the last week. In between the 2 restores I got the latest hardware upgrade & the latest Itunes version on my computer. I have only had it since June of 2011 and have been told that can't be the battery (the battery is always full when this happens or at least half way full) It has been turning off for the last month off/on. I spoke to verizon and they said it could be an app causing it, although they don't know which one. They had me turn off wi-fi and turn on cellular roaming and I also went in on my own and turned off most of my location services (except find my Iphone)
I got home one afternoon put my phone down went back to it and pressed the home button and it seemed that it turned itself off so I tried turning back on, didn't work so I hooked it up to my laptop tried turning it on again it came on but I got a WHITE screen. So after that I decided to leave it for a bit I went to it after it started working fine...until 4 days later. I was on instagram and all of a sudden the screen starts flickering like crazy and then it turned itself off, I did what i did last time and just left it for a bit it came back on working fine. And then about 2 days ago I was listening to music and the screen froze then started flickering (getting quite annoyed at this stage) and then turned off, this time I tried turning it back on straight away only this time it worked. And that brings us to this morning, i was on facebook and about 5 minutes later it starts flickering and freezing once again and then turned itself off. So i hooked it up to my laptop I then got it to turn on for like 6 seconds then the screen started to dim and turned off. That brings us up to now about 10 minutes ago i tried turning it on, it turned on but I got a PURPLE screen and it just stayed like that until i turned it off.
I am currently using a refurbished black iPhone 4 that was given to me as a replacement phone at an Apple Store back in July 2011. As of last week, the a yellow mark has appeared in the upper left side of screen. I went to the Genius Bar and the only option I was given was to throw down $149 on another refurbished phone that, for all I know, will mess up in another 8-9 months.
I was just texting on my phone and all of a sudden the screen went blank, When I tried to turn it back on the apple logo came up for like a minute and then it turned off again, it did this one more time and then wouldn't turn on at all. It was on 80% battery, but it left it on charge over night and when I won't up still nothing?. It didn't go near any water or I didn't drop it or anything. I've tried the reset buttons about 6000 times and when I plug it into itunes it doesn't do anything at all and it doesn't even go into the recovery mode? I tried all the things on the apple website but I can't find anything of what it could be.
On my nexus I have a problem I did not find a solution for so far:
When I turn on call-forwarding I can see the call-forwarding icon on the notification area.
If I then turn off the phone and turn it back on again, the call forwarding is still on obviously (it's on the carrier level) but the icon does not show it.
I keep forgetting the call-forwarding is on and i lose calls.Is it a known bug? Anything I can do about it?
So I recently have been having problems with my phone and its screen not turning on. Its the original droid and I guess alot have people have had this problem. But I am at a fork in the road:(this is the thrid time the screen has done this)Last night I went to check my phone and it appeared to be off, my power button does not work so I have to plug it in to turn it on. But the charger light was on so that meant the phone was already on. the buttons lit up still as well. Being this is not the first time I took the battery out for about an hour and put it back in, plugged it in, and still nothing. The M sign that comes up when you first turn it on doesen't appear and neither does anything else on the screen. But when i recieved a call I could answer the call like the screen was working but still was not on. I left the battery out all night from 8pm-6am and still nothing but i can still answer the calls. Left it out until 2 this afternoon and still nothing. I have no idea what to do.
My Ray's screen can't be turned on after every screen lock event. Any solution for this? I have reinstall my entire phone through SEUS and the same error is still occuring. Is is firmware problem or hardware problem. I can't believe this is happening as i always keep my phone under good condition and its just 4 months old. Dissapointing purchase.
p.s. The screen can be turned on if u keep trying to press the home button. Usually 8-15 minutes after the phone screen is locked. Face palm much.Is there any temporary solution because i urgently need to use my phone!
I purchased a new 32gb iPhone 4 from my local Apple Store. After everything was all setup, I walked around the store trying to replicate the "death grip" which I was able to do, mostly anyway. A few seconds go by and a screen pops up, very similar to the incoming call screen.
It was plank at the top where the number usually would go, and below that it said "Pwr on/off". At the bottom was the usual Accept / Decline buttons. The Apple genius immediately said "Oh, hold on a sec" and pressed the "Accept" button, and the screen disappeared. When I asked him about it, he was very very coy about it and said "Oh, it was a diagnostic screen, don't worry about it. It's gone and you won't see it again." I kept asking what the screen was and he kept deflecting the question.
Anyways, much of the screen description was coming from memory, so I'm not 100% sure it was exactly, but it was damn close. I wish I had time to take a screenshot. Anyways, has anyone else seen this screen before? What is it?
As a fairly new X2 owner (I just switched from an X1 a few weeks ago), one thing that really bugs me is that when I'm on a call that I originate, the phone does not remain on the "call in progress" screen. Instead it goes back to the home screen and if I want to access any "call in progress" options, I have to pull down the notification shade.
Is there any way to change this? Do I have any options?
If I want to make the Z5 a call and dial the number and pick up the phone, the screen goes black and I can do nothing more. It then responds to anything, not even on the Power button until the other ends the call. Then, the screen lights up again and it goes back all normal.
i had broke my blackberry screen about 3 weeks ago, and got it replaced with an old blackberry i have. NUM staying locked in the top right corner and the screen going on and off.can this be from the replaced screen? or something else?
