How do I repair the white screen on my ipod touch?

How do I repair the white screen on my ipod touch. I have tried to hard reset the ipod, however every time I press the top button to lock the screen, it goes to a white screen.

Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.
There's more to try but let's go a bit at a time.

    Try a hard reset. If that does not work, let the battery completely drain, recharge and test.

    help! my iPod is stuck on a white screen and holding any button down is not helping. I'm thinking of leaving it overnight and waiting if it is fixed in the morning. Is this a good idea or is there a better method/solution for troubleshooting iPod Touch.

    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
