IPhone screen went pixelated..

So I was using the Digg app on my iPhone and exited the app while it was loading a page, I do this all the time and never ran into an issue, and suddenly the screen becomes all pixelated like the whole screen looked like it was put through a filter and the phone shuts down. So I turn it back on and its at 29% battery, I wait a bit and its back to where it was (55%). Whats going on? What should I do?

A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
No content is affected by this procedure.

    Try these steps:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

    I updated my iPhone 3G today and after the update it said on iTunes that my sim was not compatible and my iPhone screen went on to slide for emergency/connect to itunes. Ive tried restoring it but it hasnt worked. Please help!

    Unless the iPhone was purchased  as unlocked very recently directly from an Apple Store (the only place in the US where unlocked iPhones are sold, and then only since June), which from the symptoms I doubt is the case, then it was locked to AT&T and jailbroken to make it work with an Irish cell carrier. Updating the operating system has now relocked the iPhone back to AT&T.
    Only the cell carrier can institute an official unlock, one which will hold across updates of the operating system, and AT&T will not do so for any reason. All we can advise here is that you return the iPhone to your uncle and purchase an iPhone there in Ireland.
    Regards.

    my iphone screen went blank...help!

    That was very helpful. I dropped my phone and went blank... I am glad I came to the support community. Pressing both buttons at the same time did the job (for about 10 seconds). Thanks.

  • Iphone screen went black

    Randomly today, my iPhone 4 screen went black. I can receive calls and I see volume levels. Screen black.

    I am seeing the same thing. After I enter my password, the screen goes black. I can still see the sound level, and I have the home button triple press to show the negative of the screen. So when I triple press it, the screen goes white with a black volume level displays. A hard reset fixes it, but it has happened 5 times in the last 3 days. Never happended before that. I'm hoping it coinsides with the latest software upgrade, and they can fix it.

  • My iPhone screen went white when I did a screen shot. Now the screen will not go back.  How do I fix this?

    I have an iPhone 5 with 8.0 update.  I was taking a screen shot and my screen went totally white.  It will not go back to normal.  It is still white.  I can hear a text but can not see it.  What has gone wrong?  Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hi Try a Reboot press & hold power button & menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo . You will not lose any data . Cheers  Brian

  • My iPhone screen went black and won't turn back on.

    Yesterday, my iPhone 4S screen went black and won't turn back on. So I tried just letting charge but after an hour nothing happened, so then I switched out the chargers and made sure the outlet I was using worked. But it still was black. Then I did a little research and I tried to put it into DFU mode but my power button has been broken for a few months now, so that didn;t work either. Then I tried restoring it, but my computer didn't recognize it!!! So then over night I let it rest with no power source connected to it. This morning I plugged it back into a power source and it showed the charging icon. I'm pretty that means it's still running, but I'm not an expert. PLEASE HELP!

    If you have got a different USB Sync cable try to charge your iPhone with that as there are possibilities that your current USB cable or Power Adapter is not Charging your iPhone. If it still doesn't work make an appointment to Nearest Apple Genius Bar

  • IPhone screen went blank!

    my iPhone 4's screen went blank and won't stop vibrating. i tried holding the home and lock keys but nothing happened. what does this mean?

  • Iphone screen went blurry and shaky- now I have blank screen?

    I dropped my phone around two weeks ago- although phone had been fine since. Last night however, I was using my phone as I normally do when my screen started going shaky and lines began going through it, I turned my phone off and on again which did not help. now finally, the screen has went completely blank, i can still use the screen- I can hear it unlock and take screenshots, however it just goes from white fading to black again when I do this, so I cant see anything.
    I have rebooted my phone and reset to factory settings through Itunes, also have looked at my screenshots through my computer and can see that it is taking perfect image of the screen- just I cant see it!
    what could this be?
    Thanks so much in advance!

    it sounds like you have confirmed 100% that this is in fact a hardware problem with your iPhone, and unfortunately, the only option is going to be some sort of repair.

  • My iPhone screen went out

    The screen on my iPhone suddenly turned white and when I tried to reset the phone, the screen wont turn on now. I can still/feel hear when the phone rings, but I cannot see who is calling. Can anyone help me??

    Try a second reset by holding the top and home button until you see the apple logo. If the screen still doesn't work, you should try to restore the phone.
    When you plug the phone into iTunes, is it recognized? If so, you can restore the phone from the summary tab. If a restore from backup doesn't work, try a restore to factory default settings. If still a no-go, Applecare or the Apple store should be contacted/visited to get a replacement, as long as the phone hasn't been damaged.
    If you decide to go to the Apple store, make sure you make an appointment with a Genius before going to make sure they will meet with you.

  • IPhone screen went black and wont come back on.

    Yesterday, I accidently turned my iPhone's brightness all the way down which caused the screen to go black. The phone is on because I can take screenshots and lock and unlock the lock screen. Also im getting notifications but cant see them. Ive tried everything from taking the battery out to calling Apple Customer Service, but the screen is still black. HELP!!?

    Did you also try to connect in recovery mode?

  • Iphone screen went blank. not responding to shutting down.

    When I try to phone off screen goes blank. then when I hit the on botton it comes back as a white screen.

    Try a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so.
