I dropped my phone and now the screen is going funny.

i dropped my iphone on the ground and now the screen is going funny. by that i mean it doesn't always click on the things i want and it doesn't let me unlock my phone, what should i do?

Get it fixed. Take it to an Apple Store for them to look at.
Dropping electronics on hard surfaces does have a habit of making them go "funny" - best to avoid doing that if you can.

I have updated my iPad and now the screen glitches?

Does anyone know why after updating my iPad (3rd generation) the screen now glitches, has black lines that go through or goes completely back before coming back on yet the sound still works while it is black. I have wiped my iPad and reset all settings but nothing is working. Any ideas why, or ideas on how I can fix it? Would updating to IOS 8.

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.

Dropped ipad. Now the screen is fuzzy but apps etc can be opened but are in decipherable

Dropped ipad 2 Now screen is all fuzzy but apps can be vaguely seen and can be open but nothing is decipherable.

There are a couple of long threads here regarding doing the slap but as far as I know this is only works when you get a red background or large red line on the screen. It is due to a loose connection and you have to be cautious after that but reading the threads it actually works and I've not seen any posts where it has broken again.
For the OP it is worth the shot but don't have high hopes. Tim's advice to get it serviced is best in your case. Unless you left out the red background.

I dropped my laptop and now the screen is in yellow tint

Hi,
I recently dropped my laptop and turned it on to find that the screen is in yellow tint.
Will Toshiba be able to replace my screen?

Of course they can do this. I can just imagine that you must wait few days because they must order new parts.

Baby dropped ipad n now the screen is green? what does tht mean??

my kid dropped ipad and now the screen is green, like the home screen...i tried to turn it off then on, and the green came on, so now i can see the apps but the green hues are still there?

Try resetting the device ( hold the home and power keys down until the Apple logo appears). If that does not help, it is damaged. Take it in for diagnosis.

So my i just dropped my iPad and now it won't start up. It just keeps turning on and off. Like the apple symbol shows up and then goes away? What happened and is there a way to fix it. I tried restoring and that didn't work

I pretty much stated it in my question. I dropped my iPad and now it won't boot itself up. The apple symbol shows up, then the screen turns all black and weird looking with a strange green color at the bottom, and just turns off. It keeps doing this over and over. What happened and is there a way to fix it? I also tried connecting it to itunes and that doesn't seem to be working. It detects an ipad but can't seem to read anything else. It tells me to try and restore it but I can't. HELP!!!

Try this. It worked for a few users after a drop.
Turn the iPad over and give it a very HARD slap on the back. May take several slaps.

Why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

My Ipad 3 is the same, it must be a design fault cuz I dropped a pound coin on my ipad screen and it shattered and every other week there's a new dent or scratch, though I wouldn't say I'm overly rough with it. I use it a lot, like most do, so accidents will happen and Apple hav to allow for that. I deffently wouldn't say that they are worth the money for the amount of trouble they cause, they r great devices, just far too delicate and expensive!

i dropped my ipad and now i have a "green screen" how do i fix this?

If it's an iPad 2, it's old enough to be out of warranty. Courcoul's suggestion to trade it in for a new one is ok if you are in the market. If not and you want to take a risk - and possibly a big one at that - others have reported a pretty extreme solution to this problem. Slap it on the back.
I know, I know. It's sounds crazy, but there are several threads here claiming it works.
Here is just one of them. You can do a search to find others.

My daughter dropped her sister Ipod gen 4 32Gb and now the screen only comes up with a white screen. What should I do?

If you have an Apple Store near you, take it there and have them check it. If you don't, I would send it in for service.
