Iphone 5 screen goes off...

My iphone 5 with 64GB storage has recently upgraded to iOS 8.1. But since today morning, I notice that the screen goes off quite frequently while I am on a call with someone. The blank screen has to be swiped multiple times to get baBut once call is over, screen seems to be in normal mode. Any clues please ?

Did you happen to restore your iPhone 5 from a backup when you first bought it? Often, data from older phones/iOS's will sometimes not transfer across correctly, causing issues like this. The best thing to do is to put the iPhone into recovery mode and restore as new to test it then

If when restored as new, and the issue still occurs, then your iPhone is faulty, so take it back to where you bought it from and get it replaced.
If it works no problem after restoring as new, manually transfer your information back onto the iPhone

IPhone screen goes off.

The screen of iPhone 4s goes off periodically. Only reset helps.

With iTunes on computer, Restore iPhone Firmware, at end when asked, Restore as New. After that, if this problem happens again, iPhone 4S has full Warranty, make appointment with Genius and take iPhone to Apple Store for resolution of this problem.

Why does my keyboard repeat keys and the screen goes off center?

Keyboard repeats letters, erases multiple letters and generally goes crazy. Also screen goes off center and too large for frame.

First see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Home screen icons are magnified or large
Next try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I usually use it in the car or when runnign and it has been fine up until today!Now, when I play something Spotify stops playing when iPhone screen goes blank - ie power saving - which it NEVER did before. I can't play tunes from the screensaver (ie locked phone) screen either. Can't find anything on the forums that looks similar. Please help!!ThanksLucy

Hi,

What do you mean by this sentence exactly.....top off?
Any ideas?
I would post in the MacBook Pro late 2008, 2009 usage forum. Might be hardware related and they know your Mac best.
If you have one earlier then that, post in the Original MacBook Pro usage forum.In the meantime try a SMC reset again as it controls sleep, wake, shutdown and more.

Nokia N8. Screen going off at random times after B...

I had belle for few weeks on my n8 now and I noticed very annoying issue. At completely random times screen goes off. It is not going off per settings. I have to lock the screen and then unlock it or else there is no response by touching it. I could be browsing web or checking email and it will go dark, it is not because of lack of activity.
Any help ?

Hi aim1999,
Have tried performing a soft reset or hard reset on the phone to see if it was a bad install?
To do Soft reset: Enter *#7780# into your phone's keypad
Note: this will not delete any data from the device.
To do a Hard reset: Enter *#7370#
Note: You will need to back up your data before you do this because it will erase all data from the phone.
If this still does not fix your problem, you may have to take the device into a Nokia Care Point for further inspection.

Hello sir my iphone screen turns off after using 2-5 minutes what would be the problem please help me out

hello sir my iphone screen turns off after using 2-5 minutes what would be the problem please help me out

To make sure that this is not software related, set it back to factory settings, without using any backup data afterwards. Set up the rest of the personal settings manually and test the phone. If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

Gets hot while taking video and screen goes off so many times

gets hot while taking video and screen goes off so many times

Sounds like something is obstructing the proximity sensor on your phone. It is usually at the top of the display next to the ear speaker. You didn't say what you have. Usual suspects are a screen protector or dust.

My iPhone 4S won't let me send any text messages, I can see the recent ones but when I go to type back the screen goes off and it goes back to the home screen?

I have had my iPhone 4S for a while and it's worked perfectly. Messages were going through fine and everything. I went on this morning as I had a text from someone. I opened the text and the screen just went back to the homepage. It has never done this before so I tried opening it again. The same happened again. I opened a recent text and I can read the old messages fine, it's just as soon as I click to message/text them back it just goes off.
I tried with Facebook mailing and the same happens, it just goes off. And when I go on safari and try and type something in it goes off.
I don't know what to do. I have tried turning it off and on and that didn't work. I have tried resetting network connections and I just don't know what to do. I am currently trying to software update to the iOS 7.0.4 to see if that has anything do with it. As before I clicked to text the person back a carrier question came up and it has come up before, could that have something to do with it?
Please can you help me?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore. Try each of these in order until the issue goes away.

Iphone 4, screen goes off when configuring screen comes on

My iphone 4 keeps blocking after the configuring screen comes on.
i tried everything but nothing works.. it doesnt goes to the page where you can conect with wifi.. after configuring it goes off to apple logo. And when i slide it goes stuck. I really dont understand why my iphone is acting so weird.

I'd take it to an Apple store or AASP if one is nearby and have them check it out while it is still under warranty.

My iphone screen goes crazy when it charges

Hey there,
Whenever I charge my iPhone my screen goes crazy when I touch it. If i'm typing whilst its charging it clicks random things and deleted what i've typed. The phone works completely fine when its not charging and I haven't had any other problems with it. I have the iPhone 5c iOS 7.1.1 (about to update after this post).
If anyone could help me that would be great!
Ps. Someone posted a video and my phone does the same

I have the same exact problem and I use an Apple charger and lightning wire cord. Resetting the phone doesn't work and neither does shutting it off and turning it back on. It is infuriating to say the least, especially because this stupid phone spends more time on the charger than off. The battery is crap.

Macbook 13.3 white, the screen goes off and only comes on when screen moved

Hi.
I have the macbook 13.3 in white, early 2009 model. The screen keeps going off and the only way I can get it back on is to move the screen back and forth. By the looks of things this is a common problem and it's usually related to a cable between the screen and the logic board.
My question is, how easy is it to open the mac up and get to this cable to re-connect it properly?
Or do Apple repair this FOC due to it being a popular problem?
Thanks
Mark

My girlfriend has a white macbook that is just over the year warranty. We were going to get the Apple care, but forgot as we got the computer at Best Buy and didn't expect to have problems. I've always previously been a PC guy and had never had problems with my Dells. They all still run and work perfectly but are just obsolete in many ways.
I'm very disappointed with the Macbook. The screen freezes and fades to white and you have to move the screen to get it to work. The computer is still running fine, it just seems like a connection to the screen that is the problem. I brought it to the "genius bar" and they went down and opened up the computer. When I got it back they advised it might be the cable for the screen or the screen itself. He went on to say Apple will not just fix that problem, the only option is to have Apple do a $470 (I believe that's what I was quoted) warrantied overhaul of the entire machine. They don't just fix the problem, they go through the whole machine for $470 and its warrantied. He said a computer repair shop could probably fix the problem cheaper. My problem is that this was a fairly expensive machine that is barely over a year old and its having a problem that it seems many people are having and their only solution is to spend half the money of a new one to fix something as small as a cable that is definitely their fault. I do not think the screen needs to be replaced or the logic board as when you pinch the screen and angle it, it works amazingly. I opened up the machine just to take a look and it seems that the cable for the video goes through the hinge and there is a pleat inside the hinge shaped to contour the outside of the machine when closed that tugs on the cable slightly. I also saw that there was some missing screws that the "Genius Bar" may not have put back. They told me they unplugged and inspected the video cable and the computer worked better for a while which leads me even more to believe there is something wrong with the cable and the hinge design.
I think Apple should fix this problem. This problem that is becoming more and more common and it is definitely a product defect. We are paying a decent dollar for these products compared with PC laptops out there. I'd like to see some decent service. This is not a $470 "one fix fits all" problem for the customer, this is an easy fix for the company to make on faulty products. It will cost them little and its the right thing to do. I predict more and more people will be complaining about this problem in the coming year. They should not be able to profit on this flaw after so recently profiting on the machines.
