Iphone 4s display light dim

How do I fix the display light on my iphone4s which is very dim?

The screen may have been crushed by pressure of front glass on underlying LCD Display. Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 10 seconds until the iPhone restarts itself. See if better. If not, then Restore your iPhone with current iTunes on your computer. See if better. If not, make Genius reservation and take to Apple Store for evaluation. The Genius may be able to help.

  • Display light dims after about 30 sec

    No matter what I try, working with battery power or not, using the auto-brightness function or not, after about 30 sec my screen dims when I'm not touching any keys and/ or don't move the mouse....extremely annoying while reading a long article or watching pictures !!!!
    is there anyway to disable this terrible automatic function?
    It has nothing to do with auto-brightness, I turned that off in the system preferences option, but it hasn't changed anything.
    My screensaver is set to start after 10 min, so that has nothing to do with it either.....
    Thks for feedback

    I go into my Energy Saver preferences under "Options" and check "Automatically reduce the brightness of the display before display sleep." Then I uncheck it right away and it's fine until I reboot. Them I have to do it again.

    I have a problem with my iPhone 5 stopped working the sleep / power and simultaneously refused to obey the HOME button. I can not use either one or the other. I can not enable or disable the device, display lights up when you plug the charger. same display works fine as it is surprising. or maybe someone knows what is the reason for this? is there any way to solve this problem?

    More than likely its a hardware issue, I have never encountered such a problem and best bet is to just go get it replaced. If you have insurance on your device apple will replace it as long as there was no water damage, if you dont have insurance they will charge $200 more or less. Hope you get it fixed

  • My iphone does not automatically switch off the display light when locked. How do I fix this?

    I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.2 software.
    My iPhone does not automatically switch off the display light when it is locked. Therefore, if I get an e-mail/text message/pop-up from other application, the light just stays on, which obviously drains my battery.
    The problem just started yesterday, and it has been a couple of days since I updated the software, so I wouldn't think the software update is the problem.
    I have tried restarting the phone (using home and lock button), but that did not work.
    Something else that seems weird is that once in a while, a blue beam rolls over the screen from one side to the other. I don't know why it does this, and have no idea whether this is related to the display light issue.
    I hope someone is able to help by telling me what to do in order to get my phone to act normal again.
    Thank you x

    Restart your device by holding the home and power button until the Apple logo appears. You will not lose any data.

  • IPhone display lights up for half a second...

    My new iPhone 4 does the same my old iPhone 3GS did. Sometimes when I push the slepp/wake button to wake it up, the display lights up for half a second and goes dark again. This always happens twice. Only when I push it the third time, the display stays on. Since it's a brand new iPhone 4 and the old iPhone 3GS did the same, it must be software related. I've had it with iOS 4.2.1 and iOS 4.3. Does anyone know this phenomenon too?

    I get that occasionally. I've always assumed it was to do with the proxy sensor and the location of my paws on the device at the time. It's not consistent and rare occurrence.
    Also, i use the Otterbox cover for it. I think it's design allows buildup of dust on the proxy and also could be contributing to the same theoretical cause.

  • Cannot dim iPhone 4 display when docked on Beatbox

    While listening to my iPhone 4 on the Monster Beatbox accessory, the iPhone brightly displays the battery charging screen. Although not a real issue for me, my wife hates the brightness when listening to music while falling asleep. Any idea as to how to dim this display while docking/playing music via the Beatbox?

    Well, that worked out. Guess I need an easier question. Ciao.

    Hi, dhruv102patel. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here are some troubleshooting steps that I would recommend when experiencing this issue. 
    Display has no backlight or dark screen
    Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
    Display does not adjust brightness automatically
    The ambient light sensor brightens the display when using the iPhone in brightly lit environments, and dims the display in low light. To test this sensor, do the following:
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, remove it from the case. If there is a protective film on the display, remove the film.
    Verify that the Auto-Brightness setting (Settings > Brightness and Wallpaper) is set to ON, and that the Brightness level is set near the middle of the slider.
    Press the Home button to return to the Home screen and then press the Sleep/Wake button to lock the iPhone.
    In a bright environment, cover the top third of the iPhone to block the light, then press the Sleep/Wake button or the Home button to wake the phone. Slide the slider to unlock the phone.
    Notice the brightness of the screen and application icons; they should be somewhat dimmed.
    Remove the cover from the top of the display and in a few moments the display should get brighter.
    Learn more about the brightness setting.

  • Nokia C7's display suddenly dims out even in brigh...

    I was using my C7 outdoors(in bright light) when I suddenly noticed that its display had totally dimmed out. Light sensor was not covered with anything. The other functions of the phone were working fine but the display stayed dim for approx 3 minutes and it got alright by itself.
    Now today, it happened for the fourth time.
    I am wondering if anything is wrong with the light sensor or the AMOLED display.
    I have heard of LCDs blacking out because they have back light or something. But never heard of AMOLED's doing that.
    Please guide me as my phone is still under warranty period and its going to expire very soon. If my AMOLED fails after my warranty period, it's going to be very costly...
    Thanks in advance.

    yeah.. i'll do that if issue crops up again. Bcz it occurs not that frequently, it will be really tough explaining the issue to Nokia care guys.. its been 10 months already and my nokia care still can't see purple patches in my display...  

  • Lightroom 5 Final, Big bug with Function "Light Dim"

    Hello,
    Found this bug in many Pcs (With Win 7) in x64 Bits AND x32
    When i use the option "Lights Dim" (in Menu "Lights Out") when i quit Lightroom 5, lr 5 Crashes after the ending.
    Receive windows message "Lightroom 5 Has Chrashing ...etc..."
    I search to understand, and i think have know.
    Before the V5, no crash (V4.4. for exemple), and with this versions,  "Lights Dim" function is intergrate into "lightroom.exe"
    With the Lr5 Version ONLY  "Lights Dim" is extrenal ans is used by "Slideshow.Dll"
    For verify this, very easy, just move  "Slideshow.Dll" in you desktop, and you see the  "Lights Dim" not run.
    After always testing, you see also the Option "Light Off" runs always good, and "Light On" same.
    This in one little piece of this 3 function is external, it's very dirty, and crashes.
    Pse (developpers) note this bug and in 5.1, integrate this 3 functions into Lightroom5.Exe
    Best regards, and sorry for my very bad English

    I am having the same issue and wondered what was the issue. Thank you for posting; now I remember Lightroom didn't start doing this until I updated to Mac OS Maverick. The only time I don't have that problem is when I physically disconnect my secondary display from my computer.

  • Back light dims then brightens

    when i am typing a message on my phone the display light starts to dim on the screen. it starts off bright, then will stay dim for about 10-15 seconds, then go to full brightness.i am usually sitting in one place so there isn't a change of lighting in my surroundings.it happens inside and outside.would anybody have any idea what would be causing the change? it doesn't happen all the time when the phone is flipped open, as sometimes it stays bright the whole time i am typing the message.

    Sounds like the wiring is bad.
    Take it and the MBA into Apple and ask them to check it out.
    If it is bad they should replace it under warranty.

  • Laptop display got dimmed, and never able to boot up

    I have HP DV4 Pavilion 1436TX.
    While running, the display got dimmed until I could barely see anything, turned black. I shut it down through power button. Now I am not able to boot it up anymore. There is no LED light anywhere, even at the power plug. I took it to service center; they said they could fix, but charged very costly, and they won't reveal where the laptop goes wrong except that it's mother board problem. I cancelled the repair, but a guy briefly checked my laptop by turning it on. It booted up for while with blue screen something like "CMOS Reset... Invalid", then it went dimmed again, and won't boot up again.
    Could this be the CMOS battery problem or other components? How can I identify the problem?

    I understand that your notebook does not boot up.   You took it in to be serviced  but the repair was too costly and you declined to have them repair it.
    When you try to boot it up you do see the error"CMOS... reset Invalid".
    You could try googling the error for additional information.

  • Iphone 4 display properly not working

  • My iPhone 5 display is broken and I need a replacement.

    How much is it to replace the display in an apple store and are there any suggestions of the cheapest places to replace the display?

    According to new reports, Apple are rolling out in-store repairs of iPhone 5 displays for $149 now.  Of course, if there is more wrong with it than just the display (a distinct possibility with a dropped/damaged phone) then the replacement cost is $229.

  • Dual Monitor + Lights Dim/Lights Out

    Forgive me if this has already been discussed:
    I have 3 monitors, two high resolution main monitors and a 21" Cintiq.
    (My normal mode is to open PS on the Cintiq, put all menus on one of the high res monitors and use the other high res monitor for a larger view of the edits that are being made on the Cintiq.)
    Lightroom is single monitor, and I can live with that for now but there is one feature - Lights Dim mode and Lights Out mode - that just plain does not work if I want to use the other monitors to open any other application. The monitors without Lightroom are also dimmed or blacked out, so the other application becomes useless.
    Here's an example: If I'm running Lightroom on monitor 1 while also viewing one of the Luminous Landscape Lightroom Tutorials on monitor 2 I can't use the Lights Dim mode or Lights Out mode - it dims or blacks the video. Ouch! (Maybe there's a preference setting I haven't found yet?)

    I don't think this is a bug. The whole point of the "Lights Out" feature is
    to minimize and remove distractions while you are evaluating your images for
    color, color casts and exposure. So, I am going to guess that Adobe feels
    the other screens to also be a distraction. They could be right. However,
    given that I figure a good number of people may not feel that way
    (sometimes, not all of the time I am that way. Three monitors here by the
    way) needs to add a preference setting that lets you decide which monitors
    go "Lights Out" similar to the slide show playback monitor selection option.
