IPhone LCD problem

Hi, i've got an iPhone 3GS, my step mother droped it in the toilet a year ago and the screen wouldn't work. But now a year later it does, sometimes it works perfectly but sometime I get a screen with, white, grey and pink sort of colours. And the screen comes back to normal at about 50%.
Can anybody help me, should change de LCD screen or is it maybe an other internal problem in the iPhone?
Thanks,
Thomas

Hey lloyd =D,
Thanks for the question. It definitely sounds like there may be a hardware issue with the device. However, to completely isolate to hardware let’s first try restoring the device as new:
iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
Thanks,
Matt M.

White screen on my 3gs, i would like to spot the problem if it is a cable problem or an LCD problem?

after dismantling the iphone 3gs and reassmble it again i got a white screen, i would like to spot the problem if it is a cable problem or an LCD problem?

Steps for iPhone white screen, #1 Reset. If fixed done. If the screen becomes normal, but then again goes back to white screen, fix is new LCD Display. If remains continuous white screen after Reset, then the problem could be Logic Board or LCD Display, in this situation try a new LCD Display hoping it will fix issue, but will not if problem is Logic Board fault.
Before opening and during all repair of iPhone 3GS make sure it is OFF. This is why you now have a White Screen, try not to make that mistake again.

$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n" ;
            $headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"UTF-8\"\n";
            $headers .= "X-Priority: 1 (Highest)\n";

Lenovo ThinkPad T61 14,1" LCD problem

Hi, LCD in my T61 14,1" with nVidia graphics (T61 7664-18G) has failed - I attached an image. External LCD is 100% OK, just internal have this problem (like image in fog, bad readable). I try to replace LCD - problem is still there. What can be the solution? LCD cable, invertor, or it is a nVidia problem (but really just internal LCD problem)? Thanks for help.

Buy new/used mainboard with integrated Intel graphics (external display in dock width 1920x1200 will not be problem, second display with same resolution will be ok with intel graphic too I think, or?)? Buy another T61/T400 with Intel graphics (because of compatibility and old style keyboard) It is used only for programming, I think that I don't need graphics performance ... Are parts from T61 with nVidia graphics full compatible with parts with Intel graphics (when I will go this way I will have some replacement parts )? Or is it compatible T61 14,1" and T400 in main parts? What will be the best choice? Performance of T61 is sufficient for development of web applications etc.
If you don't need graphic performance and the T61 performance is enough for you I would buy an Intel T61 planar and replace the Nvidia one. RAM and CPU are compatible, but you will need an integrated heatsink since it's different than the discrete one you have now. I can't comment about driving two monitors, I guess you now use both VGA and DVI ports, right?
You can also re-use your hard drive or SSD and WLAN card.
If you go the T400 way (or even T410, it also has a non chiclet keyboard) you will be able to reuse the hard drive/ssd. RAM is not compatible! (DDR3 instead of DDR2)
Hope this helps!
Cheers

Iphone 4 problems after 7.0.2 update--Especially with keyboard entries

I am having serious iphone 4 problems after installing the 7.0.2 update. Mostly it is with use of the keyboard. Each key stroke takes about 8 seconds to show. It is truly disabling. Apparently many others have had various problems. The one thing the Apple Tech would tell me was that 7.0.2 cannot be uninstalled. I have restarted & reset. Settings shows I have more that 20 free GB of space, though I don't know if that's important.
Sure would appreciate help! Thank you!

settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
also turn off automatic app updated...

LCD Problems w/ Indigo 366MHz

I have an Indigo iBook that I bought of off eBay.
I haven't had any problems with it until recently. I notice that certain shades of gray on the screen (notably the gray border on the OS9 start up "box" with the smiling Mac logo when it is starting up), and once it gets to the desktop, certain pixels "flash" green/blue. They are mostly all in the same area, but can be spread out depending on the number of colors that are shown (256 grays shows a LOT of them).
Would this be an LCD problem, an inverter problem, or a cable problem?
I'm leaning towards a cable problem, as the pixels that flash change whenever the monitor gets "re-initialized" (the screen blinks, changing color and/or resolutions). It is also only noticeable on certain colors.
I am comfortable with replacing the parts myself, I just don't want to waste money on something that will most likely not solve the problem.
If it matters, I am running OS 9.2.2 with 256MB of RAM, with a 10GB (stock, as far as I know) hard drive.

in general - if you change the whole display assembly, it will work with (nearly) any configuration. Once i came across a display that was only willing to work with a firewire Clamshell and refused to work in a 300MHz model, but i think that was bad luck because in three dozen of other switches that had been no problem.
It is nearly impossible to get spanking new display panels for the Clamshells because the 800x600 resolution has been long out of date.
So all you can get is a used one, and it is hard to tell if the one you're buying is good or not.
The display gets darker after some thousand hours of use because of the neon tube (CCFL) which lights up the display is getting older. You will see darker spots in the corners, and it will be no bright as before.
You can change the CCFL and renew your panel if it is stll working- i havn't tried this yet.
If it helps i can provide a link that contains my personal list of shops with spare parts:

May be you have turned the DO NO DISTURB in your iphone settings.
Check as below DND settings
Settings>>Do Not Disturb
If you are iPhone is on version iOS 5.X there was a bug which does not let the DO NOT DISTURB function properly.
SO, its better you to latest iOS version 7.0.4, no other versions of iOS are signed by APPLE hence forth.

Hello rj_23_sv,
I would be be concerned too if I was not able to update my iPhone. If you have not resolved the issue, I recommend following article for an issue like this:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
As always, it is a good idea to create a backup before hand:

My iphone has problem activating. It says incorrect apple id but the apple id is correct

My iphone has problem activating. It says incorrect apple id but the apple id is correct ?

FAQ apple id http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622?viewlocale=en_US
You are seeing your old apple id because that was the ID that was used to download the app, you can't merge apple id.
to update the app, you will have to enter the old password.
Any new apps you download with your new id, will use that id and password.

IPhone camera problems.

Ok. I'm running 3.1.3 on iPhone 3G.
Recently my iPhone just decided that it wasn't going to let me take pictures anymore. All it allows me to do is open the camera app and it shows the camera shutter and that's all it shows and a restart of iPhone doesn't work and a restore of iPhone doesn't help. I don't know what the problem could be. It hasn't gotten any water damage or any physical damage to cause this to happen. I really wish someone could help ! I love to take pictures of funny things and show my friends. Now it used to be jailbroken but I unjailbroke it about a week after 3.1.3 came out and it hasn't been jailbroken since. This problem just started with my iPhone about two days ago.

Hello. I have just purchased a used Apple iphone (8GB)from a local salesmen that sells used items for a cheap price. (For example I purchased this phone for the low price of $200.00). After I purchased it I took it home and, with the instructions given by the salesperson, I jail broke my iphone to a Cincinnati Bell Network Plan with my current SIM card. I realized the iphone worked perfectly as if it was brand new, except for one thing, when I went to take a picture the camera didn't work correctly. While researching my iphone's problem on the internet I have not seen a problem quite like mine. I will explain: When you open the app for "camera" on my iphone by clicking on it the camera comes up, but instead of showing on the screen what a normal camera would show, it simply shows a screen that looks to me as what a closed lens of a digital camera would look like if the screen were to show you. It looks like a closed camera lens every time I open up the app with a small icon on the bottom which symbolizes a camera. When you click on the camera icon the iphone does nothing and acts as if you clicked on nothing. To solve this problem I have taken it back to the salesman to ask for help. He took it in for 2 days in which he said he would fix it. When he returned it he sated that he fixed the problem and all I would have to do is put a different camera app on my iphone. However after trying 3 different camera apps, which i wasted money on, I am still left with the same closed lens look on every camera app I have installed. All the camera apps on my phone, new and old, do not react to any touching of the screen after open to open the lens or take a picture. They just simply show the "closed lens" look on the screen, thus NOT fixing my problem. Thank you for any help you can address my problem with. It is much appreciated and if I can fix this problem I won't feel as if I have wasted $200.00 and counting on my iphone and the apps I have installed to fix the issue addressed above.
Thanks again for any assistance in this matter,
Batsakis
