My iPhone 5 screen display expands randomly

My iPhone 5 screen display expands randomly & I have to turn it off to fix it. Sometimes this is tricky to do as I can barely see the red bar to slide it to turn off. Has anyone else had this problem? It's really frustrating.

Do you have the Accessibility Zoom feature activated?
Zoom
Many apps let you zoom in or out on specific items. For example, you can double-tap or pinch to expand webpage columns in Safari. There’s also a Zoom accessibility feature that lets you magnify the entire screen of any app you’re using. You can use Zoom together with VoiceOver.
Turn Zoom on or off. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom. Or, use the Accessibility Shortcut. See Accessibility Shortcut on page 123.
Zoom in or out. Double-tap the screen with three fingers.

IPhone Screen Turns of Randomly

Sometimes when I am in the middle of something the iPhone screen turns off by it self, when I press the power button to turn it back on, the screen flashes a black screen and I have to lock and unlock it again.
If anyone has an idea why please help. Thank You.
Info may help:
My iPhone is unlocked with SimFree
I have the 1.0.2 Version running
I have 2 Native Apps (Apollo and Navizon)

To expand on this a bit:
We really can't help you because your phone and my phone are not the same. The process of unlocking the piece could have altered parts of the OS in ways neither of use could know.
Since we do not have a common frame of reference, its is not possible for us to assist in your dilemma.

IPhone Screen Display Magnified

I have a an IPHONE 3 G S 16 Gig. All of a sudden the screen has increased in size so that material at the edges is covered. This situation makes it difficult to tap such things as edit and write on messages or email if you know what I mean. I can find nothing in settings to restore the screen to its original size. Furthermore, I did a "restore" from ITUNES with no change in the display. Any ideas?

The zoom feature is on.
The manual will help:

My Screen Display Has Random Coloured Lines?(IPad Mini3)

I do not know how this happened. All I did was put it in my bag and when I took it out to read some books this is what appeared...Please Help It Would Mean Alot...

I think you meant to link to the 'Tap tap tap' solution(?) > Re: iPad dropped, now with red screen/background ... although the success story adds credibility!
(tiny connector ribbons w/ plugs on the ends that sometimes jiggle loose can sometimes be UNjiggled)
FWIW, I have an old PowerBook that got wacky display, and it indeed was the ribbon connection - old PBs can be easily user serviceable, but iPads no can do.

Iphone screens switches to Apple logo

This initially began occuring about about 3 weeks ago but is happening more
frequently now. When using Safari after about 15-20 minutes my iPhone screen
displays the Apple logo as though I restarted unit. I usually have to restart but there
are times when screen goes to main menu after awhile. Anyone have similar issues or
familiar with problem? It seems I am more than likely going to have to take to Apple
for repair which ***** since I will then either be without phone for awhile or have to
pay for loner. Peace and thanks

Am having the same problem. After updating to iOS 8.3, my Silver 128GB iPhone 6 Plus has been crashing to the Apple logo and the home screen resprings. Before iOS 8.3, I did not have this problem. Hopefully it's software related and Apple has a fix.

Brand New Iphone 5s Home Screen display defect

Here goes my ordeal with my Iphone 5s upgrade
After waiting in line for over an hour I purchased the Iphone 5s yesterday at Best Buy (Stonebriar, Frisco, TX). Later that evening, I noticed that when the time was 5:36, the home screen display was not showing the digit 6. Instead it showed a blur. I then changed the time manually to 6:36 and then to 6:43 and each time there was a digit 6 the display showed a blur instead. I must note that the phone was sitting in the grass which was a little moist (which I believe was the causing the issue). I immediately went back to the Best Buy location where I purchased the phone and requested a replacement after showing the defect. The store manager wanted me to wait in the line and I refused to do so (they sold me a defective phone so I did not see a reason why I had to go in that line all over again when it was just a replacement!). Anyways, after a tiff with the manager I left that store with my defective phone.
Next day, I went to the Apple store (Willowbend mall, Plano). I was greeted by genteleman at the entrance of the store who nicely asked if he could help. The moment I told him I suspected my new Iphone 5s was defective he said 'What!!' and made an expression of disbilief. Funny! I was asked to go to another peson who was standing and waving his hand further inside the store. I go to him and explain to him the problem and when I try to demonstrate it does not happen! Oh dear! Luckily I had enough screenshots in store and I showed them all to the store clerk. He then tells me that he can take the phone in for me and get it 'repaired'! In disbilief I ask him if he meant 'Replaced'? He says no, they will try to repair it first - he further speculates saying they will try a restore or maybe a front glass replacement and that if they still can't fix it, Apple will then replace the phone. In exasperation I tried to explain to him that the problem happened yesterday and then today it can't doesn't seem to happen, while adding that it is a brand NEW phone I purchased less than 24 hours ago and that I still am under the 14 day time-frame. I explain to him kindly that I would not be able to verify the fix (Apple does a restore or even changes the glass and returns me the phone and I must believe that the problem was fixed?? - Hel No!) and its not so nice to hear from Apple that they can't take responsibility for a defective product. He kindly says sorry and explains that it is policy and that they have to try to repair first. Oh how I wish I could've gotten Apple to sign my policy document for my money...sigh..don't work like that! So I left Apple and ran across to Best Buy mobile store asking for a replacement. The guy says Best Buy mother store and Best Buy Mobile store keep there own stock during holidays and he can't help. Sweet! I drive down 10 miles and go to a different Best Buy 'Mother' store and of course I'm asked to stand in the line. I swallow my pride and become a part of the line. My turn comes and again I explain the problem and of course the Best Buy clerk says 'Did you try a restore?' What!! Anyways, after a bit of reasoning (cribbing) with a couple of Best Buy agents, I was able to get them to replace my Iphone 5s (and of course they didn't have a gold color so I had to settle for the space gray..not a big deal though as long as this one is not defective also!)
So anybody had this display issue? Issue with Apple customer service?
Rs,

Well they offered to do everything they could to work with you on the device....You are right in saying that the offered what they 'could'. Unfortunately what they could was tied by company policy.
Just like being human there are times things just go wrong- 2 out 2 IPhones 5s in 2 days! I hope people are doing better :-p
You fought against people at the store level who have /zero/ control over policy and had their hands tied by what theri bosses tell them to do. Agreed. I left instead of fighting. Unfortunately they are the first line of support and a manager maybe as far I'd get. Would love to chat with Steve Jobs but I guess now there is only one way for that :-p
They not only rushed you to get service to repair the device but you didn't even do any troubleshooting of your own to try to repair it. Now what if a restore had fixed your issue, you would have kept your device, your color, and what you paid for... - I disagree. If you read my original post, the problem happened the same evening I bought the phone. When I went to Apple I was not able to reproduce the issue. So you tell me how do I verify that restore fixed it? Wait and watch? After 14 days I can't even return the phone. The other speculation made by the rep was changing the glass. I would not try that for obvious reasons.
Why /wouldn't/ you try to repair something before spending your gas/time to replace it the moment something is amiss.
hmmm..
Now the 2nd new phone makes a rattling sound. Something is loose inside..I'd rather spend gas/time and return it than get them 'repair' it or give me a refurbished phone! Why? Because I can at this point and still get a new one with possibly no defects(fingers crossed) or I could find a company that makes better quality products :-p

My iPhone 4S went into lock-up with a screen display image of USB connector pointing to iTunes logo. I took it to a Verizon store and they said I have a brick lock and that only an Apple retail store 50 miles away could clear it

My iPhone 4S went into lockup with a screen displaying an image of the USB connector pointing to the iTunes logo. I was traveling and took the phone to the closest Verizon store. The store informed me that I had a brick lock and that only an Apple retail store could unlock the phone. The Verizon store explained that they have seen this problem with SEVERAL other 4S users who had upgraded to the new iOS7 operating system and that to their knowledge it is too demanding to work on pre-iPhone 5S phones having a far less capable processor. The closest Apple store was 50 miles away in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. I went to that store three days later (today) to reset the phone before flying out of Philadelphia Intl. Airport. The Apple store personnel were overloaded and not sensitive to my plight. They told me that I would have to make a reservation for a time 2 hours later for tech support. I couldn't do that without missing my flight - out of luck until I get back to Los Angeles. If the Verizon store explanation is true, Apple needs to accommodate 4S and earlier generation users and not force them to upgrade to a $459 iPhone 5S!

The salesperson at Verizon has no clue what their saying.
My 4S and many of my friends works perfectly fine on IOS 7.3, no issue as all.

IPhone 3G displaying emails in random order / not displaying some at all

My iPhone is displaying emails in random order - mainly oldest first at the moment. Since I can't set viewing preferences I would like to know how to get iPhone mail back to normal behaviour. For some reason it is not displaying emails from 5 December to 30 November as well.
I have deleted my .mac mail account and re-instated it to no avail.
I should add that my mac.com webmail is behaving similarly strangely. Instead of displaying emails by most recent first it decided to display them by oldest first.
Since I have not done anything differently and this behaviour came out of the blue I am pretty puzzled.
Mail.app on my Powerbook works fine btw.

First try Resetting it: Hold down the home and sleep button, ignore the red OFF slider, wait for the Apple logo then let go.
If that does not work, Restore your iPhone in iTunes from your backup.
If that still does not fix it, Restore your iPhone and a new phone (not from backup) and see how it works. If it is doing fine you have a app you are using that is probably causing your problem. Load them one and a time until the problems recur and you will have found the one that is a problem.

If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

Since updating Iphone 4 the screen display is too large

Since updating my Iphone 4 the screen display is too large to fit on the screen. For example the green battery graphic is so large half of it takes up the full screen.
I pressed restore and restored the phone. I then restored my backup files and I still have the same problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

This is asked and answered many,many times and is covered in the manual ( Zoom feature).

Use external display to present iphone screen for training

I have to teach newbies in my company how to use both the iPhone 4 and the iPad.
I was hoping, that there was a way to display the iPhone screen (exactly like we all see in the keynotes) so I can navigate around and they can see what's happening on an external display - instead of gathering over my shoulder.
There just has to be something - I see all the iphone costumes people use and I can't imagine there isn't a way for me to utilize it for training...
Thanks...

The only way I could think to do that would be to take screenshots of the iPhone showing the things you want to teach them, and then you could buy the iPad VGA Adapter, which works with photo slideshows and movies. You might be better off taking screenshots on the iPhone and iPad and putting together a Powerpoint to demonstrate.
I guess in the Keynotes, Apple has their own custom setup that allows them to show a live feed of the iPhone screen. I hope this is helpful, sorry if it's not exactly what you were looking for.

IPhone screen content to Apple Display?

Whist using Safari on the Apple iPhone 3G, is it possible or is there in existence a method (a gadget/cable) to bridge/mirror iPhone screen content onto a separate display panel? Therefore making it easier to view/read Web page content and page text.
Does such a solution exist?

I would try restoring your iphone using itunes

My iphone 5 is stuck on a screen displaying the itunes symbol and a charging cable. I tried connecting it to itunes and it won't recognize it or anything. what can i do?

Turn it off by holding home+ power button untill the screen goes black ( as soon as it goes black, release the buttons).. This might take some practice , so dont worry if on the first try your phone reboots and goes to itunes screen again.
Now, with your phone powered off, enter DFU mode:
Method 1)
Attach the phone to the pc
Turn the phone off
Hold power and home together for *exactly* 10 seconds
Release power but keep holding home until the pc beeps as a USB device is recognized.
Whilist in dfu mode, itunes will recognize the device and it will ask you if you wish to restore it. Simply click restore, and the restoring proces will begin.
This will hopefully fix your iphone.
Cheers
