My iPhone has red & blue lines.

Recently (today to be exact) I came back inside to realize my iPhone 5C had red and blue lines going up and down the screen. I thought it was no big deal till i realized that i also could not swipe my phone to unlock it nor turn it off. It takes numerous tries to actually unlock the phone, then after its hard to click anything. The red and blue lines just flicker. I tried resetting and actually got it to turn off. I'm not sure what got it to this but its preventing me from doing a lot of things.

Hi KerrionJJ,

  • My macbookpro 15" screen has vertical blue lines

    Hello,
    I have a Macbook Pro 15" (mid 2010) 2.53GHz Interl Core i5 running OSX Lion 10.7.4.
    Generally the computer and screen are in good condition and have had no damage.
    The screen has Vertical blue lines and there is a tint of blue generally. The startup apple grey screen however is perfect, it is only when it enters the login screen that the lines appear. All the colours are off. Other than these lines the computer works perfectly 
    The computer was used yesterday (09 June 2012) without a problem for approx 1hour. It was then left for the day indoors on a desk out of direct sunlight. The computer was switched on later that evening and the problem started to appear
    I have already tried to reset the PRAM and SMC with no affect.
    I also read that it may be a cable problem, however as the startup screen works perfectly i question this.
    Please can you help!
    Thanks in advance,
    Alex.

    I suggest you take it to an Apple store genius bar or a repair facility for evaluation.  This is most likely a hardware problem.
    Ciao.

  • Unresponsive screen and red/blue lines.

    Today I took my phone off the charger and as I was trying to access my phone the screen was unresponsive. Then I noticed thin red and blue lines that occasionally show up. I researched this problem, but no help. I restarted my phone, factory restarted my phone, took out and put in the micro sim, and took the screen protector off. Any suggestions before rushing to the Apple Store or phone repair shop? By the way this is an iPhone 5 thats almost 2 years old.

    Do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.  If the problem is still there, visit the Apple store genius bar.

  • HT3964 my imac 27 display has 5 blue lines and does not boot up what is the problem?

    My Imac 27 displays 5 blue vertical lines and does not boot up.  What could cause this?

    I already anticipated the video card causing this issue.  This was confirmed today by Apple issuing a campaign indicating the AMD Radeon 6970M video cards are defectivce and will be replaced free of charge three years from date of purchase.  I looked at the new iMacs and found repairing them to be a nightmare.  So, once this p.o.s. is repaired, I'm selling it and purchasing an ABA computer.

  • Blue line running through screen (T400 1440 x 900)

    Hey guys,
    So  my monitor has this blue line running straight through my monitor vertically. When I first got it, if I tapped my monitor on the side a bit, it would go away but then the line was permanent! I thought my screen was busted and started looking into a replacement screen. Now, suddenly, as I type the line flickers and it will go away so the monitor will be normal. But after some more typing the line will reappear. Now Im thinking the vibrations are affecting some sort of connection to the screen and the screen may not be bad. What do you guys think? Is it the monitor or a connection? If its a connection, what connection would it be?
    Thanks,
    John
    P.S.
    I took a picture of the screen right here. You guys can see the line that runs straight up and down in the middle of the picture

    that is usually the problem with cable connection between motherboard or the LCD itself.
    Also, try to connect to an external LCD, to see whether this problem comes up.

  • What are the blue lines around text in a text box in Pages 09?

    I'm now seeing blue lines around all of the text in any text box in my Pages layout document.  Its a bit annoying as it makes it hard to see the layout when I'm working in the text box.  See below.  Just curious if this an issue or some undocumented feature I'm not aware of

    Any text was copied and pasted from documents not the web.  Interestingly, if I add a new text box, the "Type here to enter text" also has the blue lines around it.  However, if I select all and delete that text, I can now type text without the blue lines.
    Also, if I create a new page layout document and add a text box, there are no blue lines.
    Its all very strange and seems to be eluding everyone.
    Thanks however, for your help.

  • Had my display 2 days and i have a blue line right side

    Seems the display has a blue line right side which i know others have had the same problem. Surely i can take to local Apple store for replacement ? i booked genius appointment. Any comments would be nice!

    Your screen has been the unlucky victim of a random defect in the bond between metal and glass on the LCD panel. An LCD display is based on millions of semiconductors deposited on the whole glass area of the LCD screen most of us are all looking at right now while reading this. Other electronics required to drive the transistors on the LCD panel are located on conventional circuit boards with copper metal used as conductors or "traces" to connect all the electronics together. Getting metal-based traces to hook up to glass-based electronics requires special bonding techniques. As you can imagine, you can't just use a soldering iron to attach a metal wire to glass.
    It's a tricky process but one that the LCD manufacturing companies had to overcome to make LCDs a mainstream technology. Unfortunately, defects do happen in numbers measured in very low occurrences per millions and millions produced. Yours happens to be one of the unlucky ones.
    Since it is so new, Apple may do an in-store replacement of the whole assembly for you. Or they may do an on-site replacement of the screen, so you shouldn't be too greatly inconvenienced by, for example, having them send it away for a repair. At least that is how I believe it will be handled. Either way, they should know that it is a screen defect and that replacing the main logic board or controller board will not fix the issue. The screen is what needs replacing.

  • I dropped my iphone and the screen has blue lines on it. Siri still works but the screen doesn't but the screen isn't cracked or shattered. What should I do?

    Bring your phone and $199 to the Apple store for an out of warranty exchange of your phone.  You clearly broke it when you dropped it.

  • Permanent vertical blue line the screen and a red one has just popped up too. What does it mean and how can I get rid of them?

    I have had a permanent vertical blue line on the right side of my imac screen for some time now.  It does not affect the use of the computer.  A red one has popped up on the right side of the screen and is not going away either.
    Would you know why these are appearing and perhaps how to get rid of them please?
    Thank you in advance

    Best guess is that either your GPU or LCD is failing. You should take it to the nearest Apple Store or AASP for proper diagnostic. Once you know what the problem is you can decide wether or not it's worth repairing.

  • 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.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    If still lines on the screen, this is hardware related and the phone needs to be serviced:
