Iphone 5 gray vertical lines

Any ideas:
I have my mother's iPhone 5.  Screen broke so we had it repaired at the Apple Store.  So now the same device has a "newer" display assembly.  However, all of a sudden, the screen went blank.  Apple Store acknowledged the issue and replaced the device.  However, two months ago, on the phone there are gray vertical lines and the touch is not responsive.  The phone works otherwise except for the LCD and touch screen.  The phone is out of warranty so I bought a display assembly, replaced it myself.  Since it was an "LCD" issue, replacing it would solve the problem.  However, even with the replaced display, the same problem persists.  I still have gray vertical lines and touch screen is unresponsive.
All connectors are seated properly.  Powercycled the battery.  Any ideas?

don't be afraid to upgrade, it's surely an hardware problem. If that thing happens again, go to apple store, they will repair it or gave you an other one, the warranty is one year .

  • Gray vertical line on crop

    Hello! I imported a .mov clip that was shot on green screen. I cropped the clip on the left to remove some of the "non-green" elements. When I do a preview I see a light gray vertical line where I did the crop. Not sure what's going on there. Any ideas?
    You can see it here:

    Thanks!

    I have seen this efect before and I don't recall there being a solution given. You might try using a B-Spline or Bezier mask to mask out the elements on the left instead of cropping. I have had good luck with that.

  • Am I seeing thin gray vertical lines on my 8X10 print because I am using the trial version?

    Am I seeing thin gray vertical lines on my 8X10 print because I am using the trial version?

    No. First check your ink levels and try printing something from another program to be sure you don't need to run a cleaning routine for your printer. Also, if you have an older printer occasionally you'll see those lines if your resolution in ppi isn't a whole number (in other words 347 ppi works, but 346.983 makes lines). That's not so common nowadays, though, so unless your printer is quite old it's unlikely to be the cause.

  • IPhone 6 vertical lines in screen

    My iPhone 6 is new out of the box less than 12 hours ago, immediately it had a thin gray line running from top to bottom and now this morning there are two of them that come and go as they please (more coming than going). tried resetting it completely, tried the home/power button reset and got nothing :-( can anyone help me out? Brand new phone I want it to work right

    Thanks to those of you who have responded. It is just frustrating because I absolutely love this phone. I just was shocked to see these ever changing colored vertical lines and sometimes just light grayish stripes throughout my screen. They come and go. Constantly changing, sometimes disappearing and then showing up again in a different app or simply when I pick up my phone after leaving it sit. The problem is where to start? I'm thinking straight to the nearest Apple Store on Monday morning.

  • Gray vertical lines on MacBook unibody screen!!!!?

    I received my MacBook for Christmas/graduation I have had it less than 3 years. I absolutely loved this computer until now. One day I was surfing the web and all of a sudden my screen went gray with vertical lines and I can no longer use it. I'm very dissapointed considering that I have babied this computer since the day I got it and never dropped it or anything! I went to apple and they said most likely it will be batten $600 and $800 to fix it. I am a college student and I can not afford that. Apple employees have also said they have seen this before and they can't explain to me the problem Nor do they know how to fix it right the first time. I don't know what I should do I am truly upset that there is no reason this should be happening and as much as I love (loved) my Mac I'm probably just going to have to get a cheep computer that will last longer... Unless anyone knows how this can be fixed cheep I will turn my back on Mac

  • 20" iMac screen is gray with blue and gray vertical lines after restart

    Hey, I have a 20" Intel iMac that I purchased about 2 years ago. I have had no problems with it at all until yesterday afternoon. I had just woken it from sleep (no problems at all with the screen), used it for 5 minutes to check email and then left for 10 minutes only to come back to this on the screen:
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/47548003@N03/4357722284/
    I have tried restarting with the same result each time. The computer starts up with a gray screen that fades around the edges to the picture shown above. I am still able to use the computer with an external monitor, so obviously just the screen seems to be affected. Any ideas about what could be wrong?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    It looks like the graphics card may be failing. If you are covered by AppleCare contact Apple immediately, if you are not I would recommend bringing it into an Apple Authorized Service Provider to be checked out.
    Sorry for being the bearer of bad news.

  • Gray vertical lines on startup

    Ever since I switched to Lion and FileVault to encrypt my disk, when my Macbook Pro (Early 2008) Restarts it has Strange Gray gradients extending from the bottom and fading out near the top of the screen.  It only happens after I log in, the initial log in screen is fine and they seem to go away eventually.  Is this expected behavior?

  • Blue and gray/black vertical lines on start up screen.

    At start up my 2008 MacBookPro brings up a blue and black/gray vertical lines covering the entire screen. It has a large image of the power button and tells me "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button". We've tried that. It restarts, makes the start up noise and gives the same prompt with the same blue and gray vertical lines in the background. Any idease on what our problem is?

  • Vertical lines through screen

    I have 2 small gray vertical lines down my iphone6 screen and the screen and buttons in that area won't respond. Has anyone else had this problem and is there an easy fix?

    Hello elaforce,
    It seems your display has vertical lines and will not respond. Based on the information you have provided, it appears your iPhone needs to be serviced. The following link should help you get started with the process and has links with additional information on topics such as warranty and service pricing, battery replacement, and express replacement service.

  • Can someone help me with my 27" iMac's Gray screen with 5 Pink Vertical Line Problem?

    Hi there,
    I'm new to the forums, but I have a serious problem with my nearly 4 year old iMac 27" model.
    I was using my iMac one evening and then suddenly everything displayed on the screen gets immediately pushed to the left of the computer screen. Then after a minute, my screen turns a solid gray, displaying no dock, no header bar, no options, and the keyboard and mouse suddenly disconnect.
    When I turned back on my computer, it seemed to boot up perfectly normal. The normal gray start-up screen displays:
    Then it displays the Apple logo and begins to spin the loading circle icon below it. But this time it adds 5 vertical pink lines down the screen from left to right. They stay in place the entire time:
    And then when the login screen finishes loading, instead of bringing up my Account and my Password text box, it displays just a solid gray screen with the same 5 pink vertical lines on it, as shown below:
    I've let it set for a half hour and nothing changes. During this time the keyboard and mouse seem to be disconnected, nothing seems to work with the screen or the computer itself. I hold the on/off button on the rear, turning it off and then on again. The same process happens with the boot up, the Apple logo appears, then the spinning loading icon below it, and then the vertical bars appear and the Apple logo and spinning icon disappear.
    Is this a problem with the screen that an external monitor hooked up to it might fix, or is it a graphics card problem? I didn't buy the extended warranty package for the computer and it's roughly 3 1/2 years old.
    Any idea what might cause this and how it could be fixed in the cheapest way possible?

    I have the same problem since yesterday evening.
    My google research found this:
    iMac (27-inch): AMD Radeon 6970M Video Card Replacement Program - Apple Support
    Maybe this is our problem. My iMac fits into this category.

  • I inadvertantly dropped my iphone 3 and now have a white screen with green vertical lines to the right.  It won't sync with itunes due to an error. What can I do?

    I inadvertantly dropped my iphone 3 and now have a white screen with green vertical lines to the right of the screen.  It won't sync with itunes due to an error. What can I do?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    If it does not resolve the issue, the device is permanently damaged and will require replacement.

  • IPhone went bad after software update - iPhone 5 is now stuck on Itunes connect and has vertical lines

    I don't have Apple Care, what to do? Spend more money and buy a new phone?

    Here is another person who has a problem with the iPhone 5 screen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc1ZPWSA8dc and they have just received them NEW!!!!!
    I myself, two days ago purchased a  2nd hand iPhone 5 that was advertised as having a line of squares at the bottom of the screen. I Googled it and found people saying it was a screen issue and to replace the screen, so I did this and it is still happening with a new screen.
    I am starting to dislike Apple intensely after reading forum posts and watching videos where people are asking for help and telling us about issues that they are having with their phones.
    Why is Apple getting it so wrong with their updates and manufacturing that they are completely destroying iPhones that cost a lot of money and then expecting the owner to purchase another phone unless they are still in warranty.
    Apple you should be going out of your way to put things right for people but instead there is a wall of silence over so many of the issues destroying peoples phones.
    SHAME ON YOU!

  • I have a PowerBook G4 17" and need Apple discs to set it up again. Mine lost during move. Screen seems damaged, has vertical lines.  Can anyone help. I can call as I have unlimited calling on my iPhone 6  anywhere in North America.

    king,
    If your Powerbook's serial number (do not post it here) starts with "W8" then the vertical lines are mostly likely due to a defect in the display itself. W8 is a factory code and, during the iMac G5 and PowerBook G4 timespan, that factory shipped thousands of units with the same defect. It cannot be fixed via software.
    As all PowerBooks are now classed as "obsolete," an Apple Store will not work on it. They will look at it ands tell you it has vertical lines and that they cannot fix it. This Apple article shows Apple devices they curently considered obsolete:
    Vintage and obsolete products - Apple Support
    It is possible that some Apple Authorized Service Providers (AASP) will still work on older computes but they cannot get neededparts from Apple. As this issue was so pervassive, it wil be hard for you or an AASP to find a used/pulled display that is not effected with the "W8 Curse."
    Although I love the old PowerBooks, I would not even spent the money for disks, much less the US$150-400 it would cost to replace the display, even should one be available.
    If you give us a rough idea of where you are in the world, we can suggest repair shops specializing in fixing older Mac notebooks, but be aware those resources may be rather scare outside North America.

  • Vertical lines iphone 4s, guaranteed

    Hello,
    My iphone 4s has vertical lines. The lines cover the display completely,  they are colorful and across the entire screen. I didn't even drop or something else. I bought my phone 6 months ago and I have 2 years guarentee in Turkey but the authorities said they can't fix the device, i need to buy new one and pay 1000 $. What can I do? Can I send the phone to USA and change it with new one?

    Warranty for the iPhone, in Turkey, is handled by the official carriers there: Avea, TurkCell, & Vodafone. However, they won't touch an iPhone unless you purchased the phone from one of them. So, did you purchase your phone from one of those three carriers?
