My iphone has blue lines down the screen

My iPhone 4 has blue lines down the screen which occasionally change colour. I've tried resetting it and restoring the settings but it is continuing to do this. please help....

To rule out a software issue, set it back to factory settings without using the latest backup.

If still lines on the screen, this is hardware related and the phone needs to be serviced:

My brand new IPhone has a line down the screen.

Nothing has happened to it, I was just using it set it down, picked it back up a few minutes later and boom this line is there?? It also affects the use of the phone. I don't get what could be wrong?

Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons for about 10 seconds until iPhone begins to restart itself, ignore the "slide to power off", let the iPhone restart itself. See if better, if still problem, Restore the iPhone with current iTunes on your computer. See if fixed. If still problem make Genius reservation or set up Service and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty.

My iPad has not been dropped or damaged at all. The screen is grey fuzzy and has coloured lines down the middle. iPad 3 also.

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.
Try all of these.
If these fail, then:

T400s vertical line down the screen - outside of warranty

Hi
I've had a T400s for just a 2 bit over 2 years now and was always happy with it. I used it mostly with my docking station and have never travelled with it. Now out of the blue one day half the screen was black with a few pixel problems right in the middle with a clear vertical line down the screen. I was perplexed because I was sure no damage whatsoever happened to the notebook.
I googled and it seems to be a common problem:
A link among others:
"We have about 1200 T400s systems deployed and there has been a higher than normal failure rate with them compared to X301 and T61 systems. Our issues are LCD failure with a vertical line down the screen (very common), Speaker/Audio issues, and DoA systems."

The problem seems to be known:
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-76367
But since the notebook is outside of warranty but it's obviously a manufacturing problem on a (very) expensive notebook, how could I approach Lenovo service center to repair it for me? I have shelled out well over 2'500 Euro for the latest model back then and am a bit disappointed to be honest..
Thanks for any advice on how to approach this!

@tripplec, i don't understand how a Chinese company affects the outcome of the OP's problem? Would IBM do it differently?
Yes, I spent 3 years at a Toronto Bank who bought say 500 systems or so plus notebooks. ThinkPad's and Think Center product. I supported did the warranty work while there. When the warranty was up it was up!! Even if a lowly optical mouse fail and a number of them did. Too bad nor replacement.
I've delt with IBM, Compaq and HP. There customer relations is entirely at at different level and would and did on may occasions provide one time post warranty repair even for catestophic issues well after warranty was over. This is a case by case basis. You could reach them and talk to them (locally) and not haveway around the world having no sense of what significance your case it.
There is a difference as was the turn around time 48hrs max and not weeks.

My iPod 5th generation has white lines across the screen and i cannot unlock it

My iPod has white lines across the screen. I cannot do anything! Somebody please help! P.S. I dropped it and it did this.

Try:
- 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. I suspect that the drop damaged the iPod

HT201401 iphone 5 has a fine line down the screen

my 2 month old iphone 5 has a very fine black line running down the screen ?

I am afraid that this seems like a hardware fault but there are a few things to try.
First of all, if you have a case or any enclosure of any type on your iPhone, I would suggest removing to confirm that this problem is being caused by anything else (which is unlikely but is typical of what someone in an Apple Store will do first).
If the problem is still there, then reset the software on the phone - Do this by pressing the Sleep and Home button for a while until the screen goes dark and that Apple logo comes up (typically around 10 - 20 seconds). Once this happens, release the buttons and let the iPhone completes its reboot process (typically around 1 minute. I hope that this sorts out your problem.
If neither of these solves the problem, then I afraid it does rather look like your iPhone does have a faulty screen - take it back to Apple.

My nano has a green line down the screen

My ipod nano is not even a year old and suddenly has a green line down the middle of the display.
I plugged it in to my Mac desktop and restored it using iTunes but that didn't help.

Could be the graphics card.

Ipod Nano 7th Generation with thin green, dark blue and light blue lines on the screen?

I have an Ipod Nano 7th Generation. It was brand new about a year ago, but roughly 5 months in the screen had a single dark blue line running down the screen, this has now developed into 4 light blue lines running horizontally and another green line running vertically.
I think it may be something to do with the pixels and the screen - something to do with the fact that they display red, green and blue colors?
I have restarted the ipod but to no avail. I have tried getting into the system settings as well but cannot seem to manage to access them.
Any help?

Take it to the Apple Store to get it fixed.

Lines down the screen

My I phone 5s has lines going down the screen and I can't put in my password. How do I fix this problem?

The iPhone warranty is not, and has never been, international. The phone will have to be physically brought back to the country where it was originally sold new for warranty service.

Qosmio F30-117 - green and blue lines on the screen

So my F30-117 has been working well recently until I turned it on and had green and blue lines (sort of like scan lines) overlapping the screen.
I tried to install new drivers from nvidia, but that didn't work, as Vista just picked them up as unknown.
Anyone got a solution? Do you think the graphics card needs to be reseated?
Thanks in advance!
- Shayde Zehetbauer.

You can easy determine what the reason is for this.
Do you know how?
Just connect an external monitor to the notebook and check the picture on it.
If you have the same issue on the external monitor the reason is the graphic card and/or mainboard, if not its an internal display issue.
Check this!
Furthermore you should only use the drivers from Toshiba. The Nvidia drivers dont have an overheat protection so the graphic chip could be damaged. Its on your own risk.
So try to install the drivers from Toshiba.

Another question:

Try a soft boot......hold the power button (on the top) simultanenously with the home button (the button on the front of the phone). Hold them together until the Apple Logo appears. If the swipe to shut off bar appears, keep holding the two buttons until you see the logo. Once you see the logo, release the two buttons and the phone will reset. Settings will not be effected, but this may solve your issue.........

Ipod classic has grey lines on the screen

I noticed today that my iPod has a few shortish grey horizontal and vertical lines on the screen. They are approximately on the spot where the picture of the battery shows up when the screensaver-thingy shows up. They aren't huge and don't really make using my iPod impossible but they do bother me. I've been using my iPod normally and I usually keep it in a plastic case to avoid the screen getting smashed in my bag etc. So the lines just.. showed up. Resetting the thing didn't help and the lines are always there.
What the heck?

I have had exactly the same problem for the last week. 4 horizontal lines. Just came on after I had synced. Have restored and no difference
