My iphone 4 screen looks negative

My iphone 4 screen looks negative, when i take a screenshot its normal. I have had the screen replaced because i shattered my screen last year. I have also had the motherboard replaced in the phone a few weeks back. It is not doing this because of white on black or inverted colors. i think it might be a hardware problem. If anyone else has had the problem please share your info. I just woke up and it was messed up the night before it was perfect, i didnt drop it or get it wet either before it happened. I have had ios 7 since May so I dont think its because of that either. Thanks!

no that didnt work my screen isnt on negative, it also gets alot of white lines across the screen when the brightness is all the way up ): thank you for your help!

  • HELP! My iphone screen is faded

    Today my iphone screen looks cloudy and all the colour is faded. Ive tried resetting the phone and adjusting the brightness, with no results. It is so faded it is hard to see everything.
    Any solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Did you try to restore "as new phone" ? Do not use your backup, it might contain files causing this problem. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If still no luck, contact Apple or see your next Apple Store to get it serviced.

  • IPhone screen is displaying photo-negative appearance

    My iPhone screen suddenly looks like a photo negative.  My kids were messing with it and now every single app, icon, photo, game, etc. has this photo negative look.  How can I change this back?

    try resetting your phone, you won't lose any dataL: hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release.   Then wait for the phone to boot back up and see if that resolves the issue.

  • HP mini 210-2145DX screen looks like a negative and i cant restore it

    my laptops screen looks like a picture negative. can anyone help me fix this problem

    Hi veekey4. Let me know if the display looks the same in Safe Mode: Start your computer in safe mode
    If it does look the same in safe mode, try a hard reset, as outlined in this document: Performing a Hard Reset or Forced Reset
    If that does not resolve the issue, try restoring your BIOS: Restoring the BIOS
    Let me know if this helps.
    If those steps do not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware failure. In that case you can contact HP Support to find out your repair options. HP technical support: 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region please click the link <HERE> to get the support number for your region.

  • IPhone 3G screen looks little peal with more yellow effect ?

    hi, i bout new 3G iPhone, but the screen is not white shiny like the old iPhone
    it looks little peal with more yellow effect although i made the brightness to max, is that designed that way or i should turn it back ?

    Many topics on the subject.

    It was done by design..some like it, some don't. And not all models of the 3G have it it seems.

  • IPhone screen turned white- looks like screen damage but no damage has been done

    I turned my phone off because my Whatsapp was being weird. And when I went to turn my phone back on my screen was white/grey with a couple of faded vertical lines. The corners of the screen look darker and it looks like screen damage. The phone is still on just the screen isnt working, I have tried restarting but a number of times but this hasnt worked. Had loads of problems with my iPhone, anyone had anything similar happen?

    Give it a couple of gentle "spanks" across the back of it. If this doesn't solve it, back up and restore via iTunes. If the problem continues, restore as a new device and test. If the problem is solved, there is some kind of corruption in your backup file or maybe it's one of your apps causing problems. If it continues, take it to an Apple Store for evaluation of a possible hardware problem.

  • IPhone 5 looks different. Screen a bit more wider.

    My iPhone 5 looks a bit different. The screen seems to be a bit more wider and a bit taller. I've used many cases including a knock-off LifeProof. After taking off the knock-off Lifeproof, this is where my phone started to look different.

    No.
    You would have to send your iphone to someone you know in Canada, then that person would have to get the iphone to Apple.
    Apple will not accept a shipment from outside the country.

  • My baby accidentally hit my key pad and now my computer screen looks like a negative.  Does anyone know how to fix it?

    My baby accidentally hit my key pad and now my computer screen looks like a negative.  What was white is now black, etc.  Does anyone know how to fix it?

  • Display screen looks like negative photo and n

    Hi, I was playing music with iPod and then the screen started flickering. So I switched it off by holding down the sleep button and when I put it back on, the screen looked kinda like a negative photo. I have tried adjusting the brigtness as well as the black on white thing and nothing seems to work!
    Please help!!!!!!!!
    Thanks so much.

    Are you saying that you went to Settings>General>Acesibility and White on Black is off?
    If so, try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • My iphone screen turns up very big, how can I set it back to the normal look? Thank u, my iphone screen turns up very big, how can I set it back to the normal look? Thank u

    my iphone screen suddenly turns very large and I can't put it back to normal. I tried to turn it off and on again, but still keep the same big screen. Please advise me how can I turn it to normal size again.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! My screen images were so big that I couldn't log in or even slide the control to turn the phone off. The double tap with three fingers gave me the access I needed, and then I was able to turn zoom off via the settings as you suggested.

  • Today my iphone 4s screen turned negative.

    Today all of a sudden my 4S screen turned negative and it's not inverted colours as I already tried to turn it off and on. It hasn't recently gotten wet so I don't really understand what's happened. Has anyone got any clue what might have happened?

    Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
    Be sure to make an appointment first...

  • I'd trade the iPhone screen for a Touch screen any day.

    To anyone who thinks the Touch screen is inferior to the iPhone...
    I posted this at macrumors. I do not own a Touch. I do own an iPhone, and have been looking at its screen every day since June 29th.
    I just spent some time playing with the Touch in the store. The first thing I noticed is how vibrant and contrasty the screen looked overall. (The sample I played with did not display the negative effect.) Then I pulled out my iPhone to compare it to and maxed the brightness on both. By comparison, my iPhone, which I've always considered to have a decent screen, was considerably more washed out. About a full stop overexposed in photo terms. The Touch's colors were a lot more punchy and saturated, the blacks achieved pure black.
    Of course this meant there was some missing shadow detail in dark areas, but I'd hardly say it was inferior to the iPhone as some have insisted. As a photographer who shot Fuji Velvia exclusively for years, I found the Touch screen much nicer to look at.

    I didn't post that to raise the ire of anyone with a defective "negative effect" screen. (which is why I included the disclaimer that the one I looked at was free from the defect)
    I posted in repsonse to some people who claim the Touch screen is in general a lower quality screen. Seeing the difference between the Touch and the iPhone, I'm a little bummed and find myself wishing my iPhone looked as good. That's all.

  • Screen is negative

    My screen is negative. Black is white, white is black, and all the colors are light a photograph negative. Turning phone on and off does not help and I did not see anything in setting to help.

    Look closer... you have one of the Accessibility features turned on. From the manual...
    White on Black
    Use White on Black to invert the colors on the iPhone display, which may make it easier to read the screen. The screen looks like a photographic negative when White on Black is turned on.
    Invert the screen’s colors: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the “White on Black” switch.
