IPhone screen flashing white/black/blue

I have a 64GB iPhone 6 Plus, the phone is running the most recent version of iOS 8.
I didn't drop the phone, get it wet or anything. All of sudden the screen started flashing black and white, and blue. I can still send receive texts, calls etc, sound is working fine. I just can't interact with the screen because it's flashing colors. It is very similar to the problem experienced by the user in this thread: iphone 6 plus screen flashing white and black
I've already rebooted the device and tried plugging it into a computer (it wont recognize the phone because I've never plugged it into the computer before).
I'm on vacation, at a wedding and I don't have access to an Apple Store. Is there ANYTHING I can do to get my phone to working order?

Thanks for that info. I restore the phone without any data In the end (as a new device). In order to make the problem go away I had to:
1. enter DFU
2. Update device
3. Restore device
4. Setup as a new device
It didn't work without completing all 4 of the steps. after setting it up as a new device it still flickered a bunch and the color were funny. Especially when looking at high definition photos. It was like it was threatening to start flashing black and white again. I turned the phone off for a while and then when I turned it back on it was fine. It's been fine since then. well see what hapPens.

My ipod wont charge. The screen flashed white yesterday and now it doesnt work

My ipod wont charge. It died yesterday and when i did the lock home button thing the screen flashed white. After that the dead signal wont even pop up now an suggestion. Its a ipod touch 4 generation, 36gb I tried charging it to my computer, wii,tv, wall plug NOTHING WORKS.!
1. The lock button and home thing WONT WORK.

Try:
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

View in browser - screen flashes white

Although I'm fairly new to CS5, all has been going well til now. New site, whilst testing in Google Chrome and Safari, when loading between html pages, the screen flashes white. I'm using a couple of jsQuery - one is Galleria, the other is page transitions from onextrapixel.com . Haven't experienced this with any other site I've done. Would appreciate any words of wisdom.
Thanks

Would it be possible to see this page uploaded somewhere?
I'm thinking it has something to do with the combination of the two scripts. For the onextrapixel transition can you provide a link to that one.
And lastly this jumped out at me in your code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="../html/jquery-page-transitions/js/jquery-1.6.4.min.js"></script >
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.js"></script>
For some reason you are including 2 different Jqueries. You really shouldn't need this unless one of your scripts is using an older version and if 1.6.4 (the latest version) is working you can keep one or the other, but you don't need both.

MacBook Display flashes white, red, blue, grey when starting up.

This problem just started yesterday when I turned on my Mac. It made the apple sound and then it went to a blue screen then started flashing white, red, blue, grey and then a few grey patterns. It went away last night when I left it on for about 5 minutes and when I restarted it there was no problem. However when I turned it on this morning it had happened again. I have no idea what the problem could be. Anyone had this problem before or have any advice? The Mac is 1.5 years old.

Try resetting the SMC - might help, cannot hurt.

Ipod nano 7th: Screen flashes white (turns off) and stops the music.

I just got a brand new Ipod nano 7th: Less than 10 seconds after the song starts playing the screen flashes white, the apple logo shows up and it returns to 'home' screen. Battery is full. Tried to restart but that didnt help!
What could be the problem?

Hi joannefromhkg,
If your iPod nano (7th generation) will not turn on at all I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iPod nano (7th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
Specifically -
Follow these steps if your iPod a power-related issue.
Will not turn on or screen remains dark
Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting it while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least six seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
And -
Issue not resolved
If the issue is still not resolved, please read this information on servicing your iPod.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

The iPhone screen is all black but you can hear the alarm

My iphone screen has turned black, phone is still on as screen shots can be taken. When home button and power button are held - no apple icon will appear. Please help

My iphone screen has turned black, phone is still on as screen shots can be taken. When home button and power button are held - no apple icon will appear. Please help??

If this iPhone has had the screen replaced previously, possibly LCD Display connector has simply come loose from the Logic Board. Possibly the LCD Display is faulty and the front screen assembly needs to be replaced. If you have Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple. This is handled by Apple with Replacement iPhone 4S.

T400 screen flashes white once, won't start

Whether I try turning it on with battery or AC, the same issue occurs. The indicator lights turn on but the screen flashes white and doesn't display a thing afterword. Something is definately broken, but what?

You should methodically follow all the steps in Apple's article on Gray screen appears during startup.
Good luck.

How to fix my iphone screen because it blacked out and it still works

how can i fix my iphone screen .
It blacked out but my phone still work help!!!!

Hi zhamond,
If your screen is black but the phone appears to still be responding, you may have inadvertently activated a feature known as Screen Curtains (part of the Accessibility functions). You may find the following information from the iOS manual helpful (pg 126):
Turn the screen curtain on or off. Triple-tap with three fingers. When the screen curtain is on, the screen contents are active even though the display is turned off.
iPhone User Guide For iOS 7 (October 2013)
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
If the phone isn't responding or simply won't turn on, then this article may be more useful:

Desktop Screen Flashes Between a Blue Screen and a Desktop Screen

Product: HP ENVY TouchSmart 15t-j000 Select Edition CTO Notebook PC, Model C9G48AAR, Product Number: C8P45AV
Problem: After logging in, the screen flashes the Start Screen on and off in random fashion, and is unresponsive to any input.
Effort: We followed the instructions on the HP web site for this symptom (Desktop Screen Flashes Between a Blue Screen with a Blank Taskbar and a Desktop Screen on Startup (Windows 8)), but it failed at step 8 - the Start Screen flashes in Safe Mode with no way to find or enter the "Control Panel" step. We have also rolled back the system to the last restore point, reseated the memory, and reset the BIOS - all HP recommended processes for video problems.
Current Status: We always look to resolve any problems via the HP web site first; this one had us stumped. We went to the "Contact HP" to chat with a service agent, but discovered that our warranty expired eight days ago. We were directed to this forum for assistance. The laptop is my son's and is being used for his college courses. We need any help you can provide as quickly as possible. Thanks!

Iphone 6 plus screen flashing white and black

My iPhone 6 Plus 16Gb suddenly started to show screen artifacs, like flashing with white and black, so I can't see the springboard only black and white screen. Restart of the phone didn't help. Even when the phone is booting, Apple logo doesn't appear and then again flashes. As it seems on background everything is working, as I can receive sms and phone calls. It is just the screen. iPhobe 6 Plus is brand new, I've been using it for 1 week and it never dropped. No physical damage, no nothing, just flashing

Have you tried a Reset by holding down the Sleep / Wake Button and the Home Button at the same time until the white Apple logo appears, then let go of the buttons, but wait until the Reset completes and you are back at your lock-screen? If this doesn't work then do you have a computer with the current version of iTunes? If yes and you already have a Backup of your Media and Data on iCloud or iTunes, then you can put the iPhone in DFU Mode. Don't do this unless you have a Backup and also have a computer with the latest iTunes. You will need your Apple ID and Password. To go to DFU Mode you can hold the Home button while you plug the Lightning Cable into the iPhone, a graphic will appear on the iPhone screen showing that you need to connect to iTunes. At that point just connect the iPhone via the Lightning Cable with USB into your Computer. Open the iTunes App on the Computer and wait until a button appears representing the connected iPhone. Then click on the iPhone button on the iTunes screen and it should open to the Summary page. At that point you can Restore the iPhone to Factory Settings and bring it up as A New Phone. The iPhone should screen should then show Hello and you will need to connect to your WiFi via your Router WiFi Password and then answer all the question put forth by the iPhone. When the "Lets Get Started" occurs you can thoroughly check out the iPhone to make sure it is all OK. When satisfied that things are good, you can plug into the computer and iTunes and this time Restore from Backup. or if you Backup is in iCloud you can Restore over the air.

How many times should my screen flash white after a restart?

Every time I do a Restart on my 17" MacBook Pro, the screen goes black, then flashes white for a few seconds, and repeats over the next 2 - 3 minutes approx. 4 more times. I am used to seeing this process only once on my previous MacBook Pro's. Is this a common sequence?

Iphone screen is white, still plays music and turns on..Whats wrong?

I brought my iphone up to the snow with me. Unfortunetly it got wet. After seeing this I dried it off and now its sitting in rice. When I turn it on, the screen is white, yet it charges and I can slide it open and play music. So I know the phone still works. Not sure what to do. Any help will do. A friend suggested I replace the screen because he had a same problem with pressure and I was up in the mountains. Please help. Thank you.
(Phone has been running slower since newest update, sometimes it would die with 45% battery left)

Hello Madshammitt
Try the steps that I have quoted from the article below. If that does not work, check the article for further troubleshooting.
