My iPod Touch 4G's screen has gone white and has lines on the screen. How do I fix it? Help!

Hello everyone,
I've had an iPod Touch 4th generation for a few years now, and, today, for the first time, the screen has gone white and their are vertical lines on it. What happened was I accidentally dropped my iPod Touch on tile and it landed on its back. I tried it out right afterwards to see if it was still working and it seemed like it was perfectly fine. Later on, I got an email from one of my friends, so I slid the email button on the lock screen to see the email. In the email, there was a link to a gif image, so I opened it in Safari. After I was done with it, I closed that tab. I also had a second tab open from earlier, so I wanted to close that tab as well. When I clicked on the button to see all tabs and close one, the screen completely froze. I held on to the on/off button on the top of the iPod, and, after about a minute, the screen switched to a completely white screen with lines on it. I've tried holding onto the on/off button again and it doesn't work. I also tried plugging it into my Windows 7 computer and opening iTunes, but my computer doesn't even recognized it is plugged in. It won't appear under the "computer" section in Windows Explorer, which will allow me to do USB-related tasks with it. iTunes doesn't recognize that it is plugged in either, so I can't do anything like restore the iPod to factory settings. The home button on my iPod hasn't been working for a while so i've always been using the accessibility feature that gives me a home button on the screen. Now that I can't access that, I can't hold down both the on/off button and the home button at the same time. What should I do? Should I send it in to Apple for repairs (which I won't do and would rather buy a new iPod Touch)? I am thinking of just leaving it to, hopefully, have the battery drain and the iPod would die. Then, I could charge it and see what happens. Other than that, i'm just clueless right now and I have no idea what I should do. Please help me!
My iPod Touch is an iPod Touch 4th generation model with 8GB. It is running iOS 5.1.1.

IPod nano 7th generation screen frozen on "language" choice after "restore"

iPod nano 7th gen. was acting up so I went to iTunes to do a restore. Now the iPod"s start screen is frozen on the "language" choice screen, "done" button/icon does nothing. Holding the power and home button will bring up the same frozen screen.

Hi Jeff,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The resource below will walk you through the troubleshooting steps for your unresponsive iPod nano. I understand you have already tried to restore, but follow the steps in the order presented and see if that makes a difference. If not, I've included a link for getting it serviced.
iPod nano (7th generation): Hardware troubleshooting - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203681
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 the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
The Five Rs: Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall, Restore
Try these steps one at a time until the issue is resolved. If one of the following doesn't help, read on for solutions to specific issues.
Reset iPod nano. First, make sure iPod nano is charged. Then press the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for six seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Retry with a different USB port if you cannot see iPod nano in iTunes.
Restart your computer and make sure that you have the latest software updates installed.
Download and reinstall iTunes.
Restore iPod nano.

How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
Issue not resolved
If the issue is still not resolved, please read this information on servicing your iPod.
I hope this information helps ....

Ipod 4g recently updated, screen turned to white, cannot reset. help please

help i cant reset my ipod touch4g, i just updated it to ios5 and all of a sudden it turned white and i cant do anything. help please

i tried all of that too. itunes cant detect it. i tried uninstalling and installing itunes again but still it didnt work.

My iphone 3G keeps turning off, has blank black screen or a white shiny screen. I need to put phone on charge and press off button for a long period. It seems to come and go for no reason. The slightest movement could turn it off....

My phone has been doing this for about a week. It started for no reason. Hadn't been dropped.

It could be the battery is coming to the end of its life.

My iPod Touch 4th generation's screen is still white. Could somebody please help me?

My iPod touch currently has iOS 5.1.1. When I was about to use my iPod touch for music yesterday (05/30/12), I saw my iPod touch's screen was pure blank. The only sound my iPod touch makes is the voice control and there were no open apps. Also, there was only music on my iPod touch before the screen was blank at the time and there aren't any broken parts. It is not Jailbroken and I had my iPod touch since last August. My iPod touch still has a white screen. I drained out my ipod touch's battery and it did not turn back on back to normal, the screen was still white. When I restarted my iPod touch, the screen was still white. I charged my iPod touch and the screen was still white. When I tried my iPod touch in DFU mode, the apple logo/connect to itunes logo never showed up and the screen is still white. I restored my iPod touch, that didn't work and the screen was still white. Is there a techincal glitch? Should I wait for the next update? Did anyone has/had the same problem? Can Somebody help me with this problem? Should I go to the Apple Store? Should I replace it? Someone please help me. I will be greatly appreciated for your help.

Hi there Gabby,
I'm sorry to see you are so frustrated. Try holding down the sleep/wake button and home button together, until the device restarts.
If this still doesn't work, and you have restored your device, it seems like it could be a hardware problem. Book a Genius appointment and a local Apple Store, and they will talk you through repair and replacement options. If you are still in warentee, they will replace it for free. You can book an appointment at the link below.

Have a nice day,

My ipod is showing a blank/black screen.

Had to restore my ipod a few days ago. Everything worked fine, but now it is showing a blank grey screen... I cant seem to be abel to do anything ? HELP

Have you tried here:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting

So, after my iPod touch died, i plugged it into the computer to try and charge it, and now it keeps changing between the charging screen, the apple logo, and a blank black screen, still hasn't charged, and its been plugged in for almost an hour now

So, after my iPod touch died, i plugged it into the computer to try and charge it, and now it keeps changing between the charging screen, the apple logo, and a blank black screen, still hasn't charged, and its been plugged in for almost an hour now

See the not-charging topic of:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
Have you tried another cable?
Another charging source? Does iTunes see the iPod when you connect to your computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and cracked or broken plastic.

My ipod screen is cracked and i can't sync my ipod to itunes because it is locked with a password and i can't enter the password because the heat sensor is messed up on the ipod becasue of the screen and i don't want to restore it and lose everything. What can i do?!

All you can do is to restore and thus erase the iPod unless you can get a data recovery company to preserve the data.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
