Black screen and phone doesn't load.

My phone was just replaced due to the phones inability to fully load past the black screen. Occasionally it will try to pull up the home screen for approximately a second. Now the replacement phone is doing this as well. How do I fix this error and avoid it in the future?

I have tried a reset and restoring. Restoring worked fine until today again. I have had to restore 3 times now. I have noticed that the phone seems to be stuck in a loop that goes between a long look the black screen and a quick look at my home screen when it tries to wirelessly sync. That is the one commonality I have caught today.

  • NVidia driver 185 black screens and 177 doesn't accelerate

    Hi,
    I just installed Arch for the first time. All was goodish untill nVidia let me down. 
    This is all with
    Xorg 1.6.2, and the graphics chipset is:
    GeForce 9500 GT
    There is trouble in two parts:
    part I:  driver 185  sucks hard
    I had to downgrade to nvidia-177 because of a bug I think is mentioned in the thread:
    http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=63281
    Except now it is with kernel 2.6.30 and driver 185.
    I quote:
    This morning, after some more attempts, I decided to re-install Arch.
    Finished installing, Installed Xorg, Installed Nvidia-180.22, tried to "startx", and nothing - black screen,
    nonresponsive mouse an keyboards, and the CPU sounds like it's going up the roof...
    (The thing about the CPU means a fan starts spinning hard.)
    This happens for just about any xorg.conf that actually uses the nvidia driver.  For example, I can run nvidia-xconfig, and optionally  comment out the "InputDevice" lines and this will still happen.
    There is no logfile at all.  Nor can I save anything on standard error.
    part II:  GoogleEarth (and others?)
    GoogleEarth performs really badly with the nVidia driver.  It's actually much faster with the open source drivers (but still not smooth). I haven't tried any other 3D applications in a fair test.
    This *might* be because the lib32-nvidia-utils (and hence libGL) does not come in a version for driver 177.

    Hmm, I am glad there are some new threads about blackscreening nVidias, because I am not sure it is really the same problem.  My particular sickness has three symptoms:
    1)   17x drivers work while 18x don't (180,185, whatever).
    2)    It not only black screens, but sets a fan (presumably the CPU fan) spinning hard.
    3)   There is no logging available after reboot, either on standard error, or to the system logs.
    Since the 17x drivers work, I'm just going to sit this one out.  One day I will upgrade to whatever is latest and see what happens.  I'm still disappointed that there are
    so many problems with the nVidia drivers.  I thought they were solid.
    Cheers.

  • My Mac mini starts up with a black screen and white writing.

    Okay basically I purchased a Mac mini (Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8GHZ 1GB RAM model) in Feburay 2008, and in June 2008 i decieded to bring it to a store to get it upgraded to 2GB. At the store the guys told me my Mac mini wouldnt accept 2GB, they reckon it was 'cause of the logic board. So they put a new one in and was able to succesfully install 2GB.
    Since that day my Mac mini stopped starting up with the apple logo. Now it starts up with the white/greyish background without the apple logo, then goes to a black screen and just runs pass loads of white text then its ready to use with no problems. It does this all the time.
    I've read a little about the Kernal Panic and looked at pictures of it, but what I have doesn't look like the kernal panic pictures i'm seeing.
    So i am writing this pose to find out whats wrong with my Mac mini, can anyone help me?
    Oh, I nearly forgot. When i turn the Mac mini off it does the same black screen with white text stuff before fully shutting down.

    Restart the computer with the Option, Command, P, and R keys held down, and release them when you hear the second startup chime; this clears a setting which causes it to start up into verbose mode each time.

  • My ipod 5th gen ios 7.0.6 crashed and keeps going from the apple logo, going to a black screen, back to the apple logo, then back to the black screen and so on. Furthermore, my laptop doesn't recognise that the iPod is connected. What do I do?

    My ipod 5th gen ios 7.0.6 crashed and keeps going from the apple logo, going to a black screen, back to the apple logo, then back to the black screen and so on. Furthermore, my laptop doesn't recognise that the iPod is connected. What do I do?
    Please help me out as this is very irritating. This has been happening for the last 20-30 minutes. It had roughly half battery left.

    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.

  • PopcornTime starts with a black screen and does not load

    I installed PopcornTime from the AUR and it does not seem to load. When I launch the application, it simply loads a black screen and does not move from there.  When I launch the application from the terminal, I get this output.

    It seems as though quite a few files are missing, though the yaourt built the application just fine.

    I had the same issue with the git version. Install the stable version and it should work fine

    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 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.

    My phone goes out to a blank black screen and then takes 2 mins to come back on and I'll have to turn it off while it's on the black screen and then turn back on

    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.
    Start there.

  • After errors with disk partition, I removed Windows from my iMac. Now when I start my computer it goes into a black screen and not straight into the Mac area like it used to, unless I hold Alt straight away to give me the option.  Any help?

    Hi,
    Sorry, I'm new to the community, so apologies if I'm repeating myself.
    OK, so I tried to install Windows Vista onto my iMac with the disk partition.  Everything was going fine and it wasn't until last minute, when it was installed that an error came up saying that this can only be done with Windows 7.  After this error, I couldn't access any errors of my iMac and when I shut down and restarted my computer, it automatically logged into Windows.
    So after a panic, I rang Apple Care and the lady helped me log into my apple area, delete Windows from my iMac, and all was restored.
    However, now when I shut down my computer and boot it back up, I think my iMac is trying to log into Windows areas that no longer exist.  It loads up a black screen and doesn't move from there.  To log into my Apple area, I have to do the whole process of holding Alt immediately after I switch the power on and access the Mac drive and log in that way.
    It's beginning to become a real pain and I'm paranoid this process is going to damage my computer.  Any advice on how to restore logging-in back to it's former glory when I first purchased it?
    Thanks

    Solved it.  Thank you very much for that!

  • Safari black screen and no letters when typing

    I have just purchased my first iPhone, the 16 gig 3GS and having issues with it. I immediately updated the firmware to the 3.1.2 when I got home and never really played with it upon initial purchase so I do not have anything to determine what exactly is the issue. Here is are my problems...
    Note: I did not back up the phone prior to updating the firmware.
    Letters typed, whether in text messages, contact information, the search bar... do not show up. The cursor moves and the letters are "there", but on the screen it is still empty. I do get numbers in the keypad when dialing. Upon restoring the phone at one point, the letters started showing up, then after opening safari, they disappeared, which brings me to my next issue...
    Safari and other internet browsers, they all seem to load a page, but the only thing you see is a black screen and a black scroll bar where the web page should load. I have tried two other browsers and met with the same result.
    I have attempted to restore the phone on two separate computers multiple times. I deleted all back ups, redownloaded the update to make sure that nothing was corrupt, reinstalled itunes twice and hard reset the phone as well multiple times.
    Still, there are no letters showing up and the browser screens remain black.
    Is anyone else dealing with this issue? Any constructive advice or solving techniques would be very helpful. Being my first iphone, please be patient if I do not understand exactly what you are saying.

    Yeah! Problem solved: It's a QT issue.
    Cause: Mac Update Software downloaded a faulty QT.
    Solution: Download QT from Apple's QT site.
    Great to have the Video back

  • Ipod touch 2G is black screen and won't restore in Itunes (error 21)

    I have aquired an Ipod touch 2g 16g that I was hoping to make a present to my daughter with.  The device is I guess what is called "Black Screen of Death".  I can't get any image to display on the Ipod when trying to charge (which it apparenlty accepts) the item or when trying to connect it to Itunes.  Itunes recongizes the item in recovery mode, and attempts to restore the item and consistantly gives the error 21 message.  I am using Windows 7 and have tried to restore the device on a laptop running Win XP with the exact same results.  The screen will turn white during the process, and the machine will from what I have read and believe go into DFU mode, but it stops with error 21.  I am a Noob and have googled and googled for a week now with no luck.  I have tried the reinstallation of Itunes, all the updates to both Itunes and the machine, no security software, the works.  I tried connecting it to older son's laptop running Win 7 which he uses for his Ipod 2g 32 gig without problems.  My device was recognized on his machine, and he said on his Itunes he briefly saw songs on the device he did not have on his machine/device in his library before it hung again in the recovery mode loop.  I have read different articles and tutorials on jailbreaking and tried loading just the 'oem" firmware from apple with Redsnow and thought i was successful.  The device went through the process of white screen, several boots/dings of on my PC, and then an image appeared on the Ipod of "loading Jailbreak data".  After a few moments/minutes it then began what I believe is displaying the "verbose" booting running the lines of text on the screen.  I then notice it to stop and give me an error of something to the affect of init failed, and then a "lan error, watchdog timeout, giving up, a long pause, then quick scrolls down the screen and reboot back to white screen.  Holding the power button or home/power button puts it right back to a black screen and in the Itunes recovery mode loop/error 21 again.  Can anyone please help me resolve this issue before I pull what's left of my hair out.  I would love to get this working for my daughter before her birthday.  Thanks in advance to anyone who helps.

    Common, no one has any ideas?  Well, don't know if this will help, but here's some new data to process.  I noticed that when I was trying to load the firmware with Redsnow w/o installing any options to include Cydia I got errors displayed on the Ipod such as WMR NAND format invalid; NANDLegacyFTL failed.  Someone has got to know something.  I would appreciate any ideas or thoughts from anyone with any idea.  Thanks

  • My ipod touch has a totally black screen and is unresponsive, how do I fix it?

    Long story short, my 3rd generation touch is completely unresponsive: black screen and everything. I've tried resetting, no go. Still black. I've tried charging, no go, still black. I can't even reset it because windows doesn't detect it when it's plugged in.
    I worked fine an hour previous to its unresponsiveness.
    How can I fix this?

    If not successful try the remaining items of:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    If not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
