3rd gen screen flashes white

iPod 3rd Gen model: mc008ll/a. It was working, then sudden screen went SOLID WHITE. Now, after not holding a charge, the screen flashes on and off (still solid white) while connected to my MacBook Pro. I'm pretty sure its "dead" but if there's anything I can do

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

1. The lock button and home thing WONT WORK.

Try:
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

View in browser - screen flashes white

Although I'm fairly new to CS5, all has been going well til now. New site, whilst testing in Google Chrome and Safari, when loading between html pages, the screen flashes white. I'm using a couple of jsQuery - one is Galleria, the other is page transitions from onextrapixel.com . Haven't experienced this with any other site I've done. Would appreciate any words of wisdom.
Thanks

Would it be possible to see this page uploaded somewhere?
I'm thinking it has something to do with the combination of the two scripts. For the onextrapixel transition can you provide a link to that one.
And lastly this jumped out at me in your code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="../html/jquery-page-transitions/js/jquery-1.6.4.min.js"></script >
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.js"></script>
For some reason you are including 2 different Jqueries. You really shouldn't need this unless one of your scripts is using an older version and if 1.6.4 (the latest version) is working you can keep one or the other, but you don't need both.

IPhone screen flashing white/black/blue

I have a 64GB iPhone 6 Plus, the phone is running the most recent version of iOS 8.
I didn't drop the phone, get it wet or anything. All of sudden the screen started flashing black and white, and blue. I can still send receive texts, calls etc, sound is working fine. I just can't interact with the screen because it's flashing colors. It is very similar to the problem experienced by the user in this thread: iphone 6 plus screen flashing white and black
I've already rebooted the device and tried plugging it into a computer (it wont recognize the phone because I've never plugged it into the computer before).
I'm on vacation, at a wedding and I don't have access to an Apple Store. Is there ANYTHING I can do to get my phone to working order?

Thanks for that info. I restore the phone without any data In the end (as a new device). In order to make the problem go away I had to:
1. enter DFU
2. Update device
3. Restore device
4. Setup as a new device
It didn't work without completing all 4 of the steps. after setting it up as a new device it still flickered a bunch and the color were funny. Especially when looking at high definition photos. It was like it was threatening to start flashing black and white again. I turned the phone off for a while and then when I turned it back on it was fine. It's been fine since then. well see what hapPens.

Ipod nano 7th: Screen flashes white (turns off) and stops the music.

I just got a brand new Ipod nano 7th: Less than 10 seconds after the song starts playing the screen flashes white, the apple logo shows up and it returns to 'home' screen. Battery is full. Tried to restart but that didnt help!
What could be the problem?

Hi joannefromhkg,
If your iPod nano (7th generation) will not turn on at all I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iPod nano (7th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
Specifically -
Follow these steps if your iPod a power-related issue.
Will not turn on or screen remains dark
Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting it while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least six seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
And -
Issue not resolved
If the issue is still not resolved, please read this information on servicing your iPod.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

When i start my i pod touch(3rd gen) screen appears to shake first while starting what should i do to repair this ?

when i start my i pod touch(3rd gen) screen appears to shake first while starting what should i do to repair this ?

I really do not understand your problem. Here are the standard fixes.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

3rd gen screen 2nd gen Touch?

A coworker asked me to repair his cracked iPod Touch screen. He told me it was a 3rd gen. I ordered a 3rd gen screen. When I sat down to replace the screen, I discovered it was in fact a 2nd gen iPod Touch. Any chance the 3rd gen screen is compatible with the 2nd gen iPod Touch?

This place lists different part number for the screen for the 2G and 3G iPods That, together with your observation, leads me to believe that they are not interchangeable.

You can try Restoring it in iTunes but I believe you will end up needing to have it serviced.

Ipod touch 4th gen. screen is white

We were editing photos on ipod touch 4th gen. screen turned white. Turned it off and back on and it said no photos and videos were found. Turned it off and back on again and it says it needs to be restored. Don't know what has happened. Why would it wipe out photos and videos? Can I get around restoring it?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

After plugging it back in the screen lit up white and stayed lit until unplugged. once unplugged it flashes white every few seconds and thats it. my computer no longer recognizes it and restarting/reseting does not work. i could use all the help i can get. thanks.

How many times should my screen flash white after a restart?

Every time I do a Restart on my 17" MacBook Pro, the screen goes black, then flashes white for a few seconds, and repeats over the next 2 - 3 minutes approx. 4 more times. I am used to seeing this process only once on my previous MacBook Pro's. Is this a common sequence?

Blackberry curve 8530 - startup problem, screen flashes white

Whenever I try to start my phone this is essentially what happens.
I plug my phone into a charger, the red light lights up.
Proceeds into the hourglass, then the screen partly flashes white. and then back to the red light.
This then proceeds to happen forever. Is there a fix? i've tried to update the software through desktop manager but there is always and error when i try this. I use a mac and want to fix this asap.
Thanks

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB):
With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
Remove the battery
Wait 15 minutes
Insert the battery
Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
Obtain a known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem.
Unfortunately, most of the good "tricks" for recovering a BB work only on PC...not MAC.
Good luck and let us know!
Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!
If anyone has been helpful to you, please show your appreciation by clicking the button inside of their post. Please click here and read, along with the threads to which it links, for helpful information to guide you as you proceed. I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.
