IPad2 screen not working after 3' drop in smart case

Hello
so the iPad got knocked off the table and is dented bottom right corner and now the screen does not work.
Just how hard is this to fix?
Maybe an iFixIt tear down reveals a simple cable to replug in?
or is it bricked from such a simple everyday accident?

I do not know how to link to threads but ling it face down and whacking it fixed it. It did not for ages but face down on bed and hit very hard with flat hand right in the centre. I presume it reseals the case around the lid. Thanks to alanfromnewtownards for the tip:
Re: i dropped my Ipad sideways, the screen is only black and it wont turn on

  • Lenovo A1 - Touch screen not working after digitizer replacemen​t

    After dropping my tablet and breaking the digitzer, I ordered a replacement digitzer from a company in China. (It took about a month to get it) After watching this video, I was able to install my new digitizer and it finally looked new again....well at least the screen!
    But.....when I powered up my tablet, the touch screen wasn't working..... I emailed back and forth with the company and they told me to install drive program, and send me a link to a site with a video, this site may have contained more than the video, but it was all in Chinese and I couldn't figure it out even with Google Translate. So I started researching. I thought I would try and load ICS on it, I thought, "Whats the worst thing that could happen?" it wasn't much more than a brick at this point anyways. 
    I found this website that let me through installing ICS on it. I had absolutly no expectations...but IT WORKED!!!! MY TOUCH SCREEN IS NOW WORKING!!!! I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!!!
    When I was researching for this problem, there was absolutly no posts anywhere for "Touch screen not working after new digitizer". So I wanted to share my experience.

    Yea you are correct.....it must be a hardware problem. You must contact service centre of Lenovo and get help from there.

  • My ipad2 wireless not working after the update to ios 6.1.3, what can I do?

    Hi, My Ipad2 could not connect again with the wireless after updated to ios 6.1.3. Pls what can I do?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Touch screen not working after update

    Hi, I am using Sony laptop which have the model name: SVF14N11CXB. Till yesterday it was working fine, when I shut it down it did its mandatory update. However, today when I start it up its touch stopped working, Although this laptop is touch supported and till now the touch screen was working perfectly but today when I searched in the computer properties it is showing that this laptop is not pen or touch supported. I restored my laptop to factory default but still it is not working and making me go crazy. Please help me in this regard.
    Thanks.

    Hi Pirat3,
    Welcome to Sony Community!
    We regret to hear that the touch screen feature is not working anymore. You're right this laptop has a touchscreen function. Click here for more information. You mentioned that you reformat the computer  back to factory default, if done properly the computer should be back up and running the way it was when you first got it (including the touch feature). Kindly visit this website and reformat again the computer back to default setting. Please follow thr instructions there carefully. 
    Keep me posted. 
    Thanks,
    Jen

  • Screen not working after new hard drive installed

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me, I just replaced my hard drive on my 15" G4 Aluminum Power Book as it had crashed and died on me. When I finished installing the new hard drive, when switching it on the screen remains blank. Does anyone have any Ideas why and how to get it working again. The screen was working before the hard drive crash. Any help will be much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Robby

    Here are the factory specs for your HP Pavilion dv6-1210sa Entertainment Notebook Computer. Based on the specs, the original hard drive was 250GB. This could be a factor in your issue. It could also be that the drive is an advanced format (AF) drive. Please provide the model of the drive for our review.

  • Thinkpad X61 screen not working after driver install?

    Recently I decided to change my operating system on my Thinkpad X61 so I completly refreshed the system and installed Windows 7 . I finished the install and it seemed to boot properly . As I began to install my drivers via the Lenovo website it asked for a RESART. After restarting the PC it wouldnt show a screen . I've tried to connect to another output and that didnt work.
    As for the motherboard theory I honestly dont think that is the problem because I've seen several people on several forums discuss the same problem and they've found a solution but I cant seem to get anyone to discuss what that solution was.
    I am a student so I am in need of my computer so if someone could please help me as soon as possible.
    Moderator note; moved to correct board

    Are you really talking about X61? If so, this is the wrong forum, but regardless, here is what to do. Pull the battery out. Unplug the machine, and press the power button several times, holding it for 5 seconds the last time. Put the battery back and plug it in. Turn it on and try to boot into the BIOS. If the screen stays black, either the screen or the motherboard has died. If you can plug it into an external monitor and try again, you can tell which one it is.

  • Touch screen not working after system update

    A few months ago, my laptop (Satelitte P55t-A5202) went through an automatic system update.  Ever since then, my touch screen won't work.  I followed the directions to reinstall the HDI programs several times.  The first time it worked but only for a few hours. The next time I tried to reinstall, it worked for a second.  Now reinstalls do nothing. 
    Before the system update, my touchscreen worked fine.  And in reading the forums, this seems to be a common problem with the updates.  I called TOSHIBA customer service for help.  The FIRST thing they want to do is charge me for tech support because my laptop is out of warranty.  I told the customer service rep repeatedly that my touch screen worked fine until the update.  He refused to give me any help because I did not want to pay for him to tell me how to resolve...
    In my opinion, this is a toshiba issue not mine so regardless if my laptop is out of warranty, Toshiba should take ownership and be accountable for the problems they cause.
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to take care of this?
    By the way, Toshiba customer service representative was rude, you could barely understand him because of his accent, I had to repeat SEVERAL times what my issue was because he couldn't get past the warranty issue and I had to ask several times to speak with a supervisor ( to which he told me a supervisor would call me instead)

    See my reply in the laptop forum.

  • Popup screen not working after upgrade to APEX 3.0

    Hi,
    I have upgraded my APEX installation from version 1.6 to version 3. My application has some popup screens that are displayed when a user presses a button. These popups have now stop working and when you press them, the user is presented with the login page.
    I suspect this is because I am not passing the SESSION value in the URL when the page is displayed. The following code is the javascript that is called from one of the buttons :-
    function sa_popup2() {
    var field_value = document.getElementById("f22@0").value;
    if ( document.getElementById("f22@0").value != "" ) {
    var enqNo = document.getElementById("P17_ENQUIRY_NO") ? document.getElementById("P17_ENQUIRY_NO").value : -1;
    var enqLineNo = wwv_flow.f02[0].value;
    var str=document.getElementById("P17_PROCESS_CHRG_INCL").value;
    var outstring = str.replace(/%null%/,"");
    windowAddress = 'f?p=200:228:::::P228_CUS_ID,P228_ENQ_STATUS,P228_PROCESSING_CHRG,P228_ENQUIRY_NO,P228_ENQUIRY_LINE_NO:'+document.getElementById("P17_CUS_ID").value+','+document.getElementById("P17_ENQ_STATUS").value+','+outstring + ',' + enqNo + ',' + enqLineNo ;
    w = open(windowAddress,"winhelp","Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=500,height=350");
    You can see from the above that when the windowaddress variable is set it does not include the session value. In APEX 1.6 when the popup is displayed the SESSION is automatically populated in the URL, but in APEX 3 it is not populating.
    Is there a way I can get this to continue working without changing my javascript function. This approach has been used throughout my applications, and I do not want to have to change the code if I don't need to.
    Rgds
    Paul

    Hi Paul,
    Yes, as you suspect, it's the fact that you're not passing the session across. I would definitely recommend recoding to include the session.

  • Help! My iPod touch is not working after I dropped it!

    I have the iPod touch 4G. I was sitting down, and when I stood up it fell out of my pocket and onto the tile floor. It feel on the back of it while wearing it's case (a paul frank one that's 2 weeks old). It's screen has been smashed before, but I had it fixed, and it's been working great since. I tried plugging it into the charger, holding down the power button, and holding down the power and home button together. Can anyone give me some advice on what I should do or what might be wrong?? I've had it since about Christmas.
    Thanks!!
    SockMonkeyLove

    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.
    An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store would be next.

  • IPod Touch Screen not Working after using Assistive Touch

    Hey everyone!
    Yesterday my iPod Touch 4th gen touch screen froze (not the screen itself - it still wakes from sleep & responds to notifications and charging etc.), after myself accidentally taping 'Voice Control' on Assistive Touch.
    I was wondering, since it's out of warranty (it's a couple of years old), I can't send it back. I'm currently backing up & restoring it.
    Can anyone tell me if it's the software or hardware? It's going to take at least a good day or so to backup & restore, due to storage is full, and it's 32GB capacity, so it'd be good to know in advance.
    And if anyone has got any other suggestions to fix it, please let me know! It'll be much appreciated.
    Thanks heaps!
    PS. Please don't tell me to repair it...it'll cost just as much to fix my whole iPod, buttons & screen than it is to buy a brand new one!!

    There is really no what to know if hardware or software problem without trying to restoring the iPod. First from backup and then to factory settings/new iPod. If still problem then it is a hardware problem.

  • My video camera on iPad2 does not work

    My video camera on iPad2 does not work after installing ios7.  Anyone else have the same issue?  Photos can be taken but not video.  Odd.

    You shouldn't feel stupid, rather I think Apple should feel stupid.  I swear I used to be able to simply select "Video" in the previous IOS version (rather than swipe).  What value is there in having to have everyone relearn how to use their iPad?
