  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

    Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
    The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
    But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
    This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

    Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
    My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem.  Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source.  Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all.  In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
    Is there any help for this affliction?

  • How do I change the default iPhone screen capture format to .jpg? I have an iPhone 5.

    How do I change the default iPhone screen capture format to .jpg?
    I have an iPhone 5 (but I'm sure users with other models would like to do this as well).
    My online searches have not found an answer -- I did find a discussion thread that was essentially, "Why would you want to do that?" Those posts are not welcome! Not looking for a work-around, an intermediate step, or the need to change the file format on a computer, etc. Just want to hit the two buttons and have the resulting capture be a JPEG file.
    Not interested in jailbreaking or using apps that require jailbreak -- Want to do this with a new phone.
    Thank you in advance for any help!!

    You can't.

  • Aperture cannot import iPhone 3G screen captures

    I have no problem importing regular pictures from the iPhone camera roll into Aperture. All software is the latest version. However I cannot import screen captures from the iPhone. In Aperture's import window, there is a dotted line in a square shape outlining where the screenshot should be, but no image appears and the box can't be selected.

    Actually the box can be selected, but you won't be able to see it. I have the iPod touch and the operations are pretty much identical. Any images in that Saved Images folder on the touch or iPhone can be imported into an Aperture Library.
    Bring them all in, then delete what you don't need. Then, on the iPhone, go into the folder and delete all of the images, otherwise the next time, they will all be available and, if imported, you will have duplicates.
    I guess the way to think about it might be to imagine what a roll of film was like: we could not see the photos, but had a fair idea (on a single roll -- not a major shoot) what we had on there.

  • [iPhone SDK beta 7] screen capture error?

    As of beta 7 of the SDK, I get the following error when I try to capture a screenshot of my device via Xcode: "Could not communicate with the device, connection failed".
    Anyone else encounter this? Or is it working for you?
    Thanks.

    Me, too. Xcode 3.1. I am using the old-fashioned screen capture technique (holding power while pressing home), but it's not nearly as nice and the fact I can't do the other worries me a bit.
    Has anyone been able to do this since iPhone 2.1 came out?

  • After receiving a photo in a text message, my I phone 3gs screen is fuzzy over 3/4 of the screen. I have tried restoring, restarting my phone but this screen fuzz remains. Anyone know how to clear the fuzz off an Iphone screen? Thanks for help.

    After receiving a photo in a text message, my I Phone 3GS screen is now fuzzy over 3/4 of the screen. I deleted the photos, did a restore of the phone, did a restart of the phone and still the screen has the fuzz over 3/4 of it.
    Anyone ever experienced this problem and know how to fix it?
    Thank you for your help.

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • My iphone 3GS screen went black

    my iphone 3GS screen randomly went black and it was fully charged... ive tried to hold the buttons down that turn it off, i tried plugging it into the wall and my computer nothing is working the screen is still black

    My wife's phone has done this today.
    16Gb 3GS running 5.1.1 that has been fine up until today.
    It was around 80% charged and running rather slowly today, then it appears to have shut off. The symptoms are:
    - The screen has gone black (as in off, not on but showing a black screen)
    - The mute switch does not make it vibrate.
    - I can call the phone number and it rings, the phone does nothing though.
    - I connect it to my Mac and iPhoto launches, I can import pictures from it OK.
    - iTunes will recognise it eventually, but it will not sync, nor will it restore.
    - Holding the Hold & Home buttons does nothing.
    - I cannot force it into recovery or DFU modes.
    Bit stuck as to what to try next. Still seeing what I can find online.
    It only needed to last until next month!

  • I erase my data inside iphone in 3gs after that screen not open

    I erase and restore the data inside my Iphone 3gs and it show atleast 2 hours to reboot by themself i waited it erase and finally it cant able to reboot. The symbol from able is always showing and my iphone can able to open front screen. i think the soft ware was corrupted

    You may try resetting the phone. Hold down the sleep/wake button and home button wait until you see an apple logo then release and after a couple of seconds your iPhone's home screen should comes up

  • Difficulty with screen capture iphone 5s

    I am using IOS 7 and iPhone 5s and Evernote.
    Screen Capture works poorly or not at all.
    Does not work at all if a message is open on a screen or if input is needed.
    Any workaround?

    Plug the device into a wall outlet for at least 20 minutes.
    Attempt to reset the device by pressing and holding the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears, about 15-20 seconds.
    If the device still will not power on, take it to Apple for evaluation.

    Your iPhone is probably locked to your former cell carrier. In such case only that carrier can unlock it, so you'll need to contact the carrier. Note that unless things have changed recently only 3 offers unlocking. If you used a different carrier, they do not appear to offer unlocking which means that your son will not be able to use your old iPhone. But call your carrier and ask.
    Regards.

  • IPhone can no longer screen capture

    I used to be able to perform a screen capture by pressing the home button at the same time as the power button. I don't know why, but that no longer works. Can anyone tell me what to look for or do to restore this useful feature?

    I found that the screen capture function works again after I restart the iPhone. Same thing if I reboot the iPhone as you described. Thank you.
    The problem comes back however after a few tries. Here is what I'm doing to recreate the problem:
    I have an app called PhotoTropedelic. It posterizes an image in bright and contrasty colors. I like playing with some of my photos in this way. The app does this by stages so you can see the first several layers of color being applied and then successive layers are added on until the image is complete. Sometimes the image looks interesting in the early stages of development in this process so I make a screen capture at any point along the way.
    That works for two or three times and then the screen capture function ceases to work.
    Thanks for your suggestion

  • IPhone 6 and iOS 8 screen capture!

    I upgraded from iPhone 5 to 6 and can not figure out how to get it to do a screen capture or screen shot, I press down both the home button and the new right side lock button but it doesn't screen capture....*** over! Is this an iOS 8 thing or did I just miss something in 5S with the touch ID stuff? Any help would really be super appreciated.

    oh my @stevejobsfan0123 and its just as simple as you explaining it like that..... now I feel dumb but thank you so much! All these iOS 8 issues people are talking about and I never had a 5S so you know I am behind on the touch ID world. Thank you so much!!!!

  • Why is my Iphone 3Gs screen appear to be disintegrating?

    Iphone 3Gs screen appears to have burn holes in it and looks like it is disintegrating in a pixelated format.  There appears to be a dark rainbowlike hole in the areas affected.  There are also small pixelated lines that run though areas of the top and bottom of the screen.  We tried turning off the phone for an extended period of time and it seemed to get better but now it the problem has persisted and gotten worse.

    Whether this is due to a defect in the display or damage, there's no way to fix it without replacing the display or entire phone. 
    If the phone is still under warranty or AppleCare, take it to Apple or whoever provides iPhone warranty service in your area.  If out of warranty, Apple can give you an out-of-warranty replacement (refurb) for $199 (in USA).
    Another choice is to take it to a 3rd party iPhone repair center which may be able to fix it for a lot less.  If you know what you're doing, you can buy a new LCD screen and install it yourself.

  • How much £ dose the iphone 3gs screen cost

    how much £ dose the iphone 3gs screen cost

    At my Apple Store they still will replace the iPhone 3GS front screen assembly for $99 US. In UK it will be a lower number in £. See if your Apple Store does this. At worst you are looking at a perfect Replacement iPhone 3GS for £ 126.44 at UK Apple Store. Make Genius reservation first to avoid long wait.
