Pay close attention to these sections

This can include bright or dark pixels, lines in video, or sections of video missing.
1.Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
2.Verify the issue is not content related, by viewing different content.
3.If the image is too dark, adjust the brightness. In General Settings choose Brightness and Wallpaper and slide the slider.

Tuesday night I was texting a friend and when I went to open her message, my screen went blue and restarted. I just wrote it off as weird and went on about my business. Later that night, I tried to turn on my phone and it would not turn on. I plugged it up, held down the power button, and pressed the home button all numerous times. I looked online and it said to do a "hard reset" by holding down the power and home button at the same time--my phone then came on. Throughout Wednesday, it would give me a blue screen and restart--nothing major just really annoying. I took it to the local Verizon store where I bought the phone from and he said that it was some type of hardware defect and I was still under my year warranty so I could get a new one for free--the free phone won't be here until tomorrow, Saturday. I took it home and it didn't give me any trouble for a couple of hours. The next day it was cooperating and then I left town for a little while and it acted up (blue screen and then restarting) a few times. When I got home, it acted up again and so I restarted the phone and it was working fine. A few minutes later, I tried to check my messages and the phone was off again. No matter what I do, my phone will not come back to life. It had at least 45% battery last time I looked at it. I decided to plug the phone up to my computer and see what it did--my computer recognizes that there is a phone hooked to it and it says that it's in "recovery mode". It also said that if I'm having issues with my phone, that I need to reset the phone via iTunes. I guess the questions that arise are
1. Why is my phone doing this?
2. If I reset my phone, will it go back to working again? I ask that because I don't want Verizon to charge me $300 when they send me the replacement phone and I won't need it (assuming that the phone decides to work once it's been reset).
3. What type of hardware defect is this that is causing this issue, not only with my iPhone 5S but others as well?
4. Shouldn't people be notifying Apple and letting them know that they need to fix this issue?
5. Should I report this issue to Apple even though I didn't buy the phone directly from them, but through Verizon?
Any help that anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated! This whole situation has me stressed out and seriously confused.Hi, beth.lau.gr.

HT4623 how can i reset my iphone

HT4623 how do i reset an iphone 4s?
?
Reset, is holding both home and power buttons until the iPhone restarts. It is the best way to start an iPhone that is having problems. It does nothing to the iPhone contents. If you want to erase the iPhone, an easy way is to tap Settings App > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.

I keep reading that you can reset your security questions by going to the "password and security tab" in you apple id account. When I do this, however, it first tells me to enter my answers to the security question to verify my idenity. It there another way to reset them?
On your computer or safari on your iOS device navigate to:
For Canada - https://appleid.apple.com/ca.
For United States - https://appleid.apple.com/us/.
Click the "Manage your Apple ID" button, and sign in to your iCloud account. Once in, on the left side select "Password and Security", and this will populate our options on the right side. You should see an option to reset your security questions.
Also see this article about your "rescue email address" - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312.
If for any reason you can not reset these security questions, or get an error, then you may need to contact Apple directly - http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57. Explain the issue, and they can get your to a "Account Security" agent, who will be able to verify your identity, and assist in resetting the security questions. -
see my question above I am frozen out of my iphone 4s after trying to update to ios8.
Resetting the device should knock it back into order.
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally. -
Updated my Iphone 5 with the latest software. The phone was plugged in and on WIFI. It showed the update was installing and then the screen appeared with just a Apple insignia on it. Phone is locked up. Cannot turn on. Is there a reset or anything available to fix this issue. Thanks for any help.
Read one article here indicating the problem may be more pronounced if you're using WPA2 security rather than the older WEP.

Help? There are white lines going through the right side of screen. I reset the phone and restored it, I don't think its software.
is it still a hardware issue ?
I am seeing from last 2-3 days or i realized in last 2-3 days but am keeping seeing every 1-2 hrs apart the lines keep coming and phone also acting especially in the areas of touch response. I am on latest 8.1.3 version .
At least i know that i am not alone. -
My grandmother has an iphone 4. She doesn't know what happened but suddenly it started to read her everything and is making her double-tap her screen. How do I get that setting removed?
This has to do with accessibility. You can triple-tap the home button to get it off for right now. Then go into Settings>General>Accessibility and turn off VoiceOver. If you have difficulty getting there, to use VoiceOver, you tap once to select an item, double-tap to activate it and swipe with 3 fingers to scroll.

I don't remember my security questions or their answers. When I've tried to reset them, the option TO reset them in my Apple ID account isn't there. And for some reason I don't have a rescue email that could send me my answers. Help please!
You need to contact Apple. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team.

I have tried re-starting the process, including downloading the photos on the phone to my computer (which seems to have worked) but restoring it does not because there is a four digit code I cannot manage to get to a screen to enter. The screen remains stuck on the black with white apple logo and the white progress indicator stuck about 1/16th of a inch from the left side. Nothing seems to happen after that even after leaving it on overnight.
