My iphone screen just shows red, green and grey lines?

I dropped my iphone 5 on gravel and the glass was all cracked but still working perfectly, the other day i dropped it again inside my house, working fine, but some glass fell out, then this morning I squeezed it a little hard and part of the glass was off, then i pushed it back in and about a quarter of the screen went black, and the rest got darker, and it also would open things and select things on its own, then after it was in my pocket the entire screen turned to black with some green, red and other colored lines on the black, it will still vibrate for messages and when i hold the home button i hear the siri thing. Do I need an entire new phone(which i really dont want to replace it) or can this be fixed? and if it can, is it just the screen or also some internal parts? Thanks for reading

Have you tried creating a backup then restoring the phone as new? If it's still happening on a wiped phone, it's almost definitely a hardware issue that needs to be repaired

And never heard of one case of AHT finding or reporting a real GPU related problem.
It does sound like the graphic card and best way to know is to swap it out, even if you have a PC card around.

Mac stuck at Gray apple screen that turns red, green and blue.

A month ago I was playing world of warcraft on my powerbook when the entire screen froze up and pixelated. I forced shut down and powered it back up. Now I only get the gray screen with the apple and the spinning wheel. The gray screen changes color to blue, then green then red and lines flicker horizontally up and down my screen. After a minute the little wheel stops spinning. I have tried all of the various resets, booting into safe mode, hooking it up to an external monitor and none of those options worked. I booted into target disk mode and ran checks on my hd and it is fine. If I try to boot from my installer cd the screen just goes gray. Do you think this could be a sign of logic board failure?

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
Sorry to hear about your system. You've done some good troubleshooting, however, I'd suggest you take it to an Apple store or Apple Authorized Service Provider, to get their take. It does sound likely that the logic board has issues. You can find the closest store/provider at http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/ . Assuming it is a logic board issue, you can buy and replace it yourself, however, it is very involved. You can see how to do it at http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/PowerBook-G4-Al-12-Inch/Logic-Board/53/16/

I phone 4 screen just showing power cord and i tunes logo after doing an update

Tried to do an update on my Iphone 4. Now the only thing showing on my screen is a picture of the power cord and the I-tunes logo. I can't power it off or on. I have tried holding down both buttons but nothing happens.

You need to restore the device.

TS1702 cannot restore the phone on the screen just show itunes logo and USB cable

cannot restore the phone while trying to download the ios 6
the screen shows only itunes logo and USB cable

plug your ipod into itunes...it may not do anything plugging it into your own itunes so you may want to try plugging it into someone elses to save the trouble. I had this same problem last week plugged it into my dads ipod and it worked (:

My iPhone is just showing a cord and an arrow to iTunes

My phone was previously synced to my ex-husband's iTunes. After our divorce I just never changed this because I didn't need any new apps. I think he deleted my phone tonight after an argument because all of a sudden I can only make emergency calls. I downloaded iTunes on my new computer but my phone won't let me do anything. How do I get it to call. I have a baby at home and hate not being able to make any calls out. Can you help me?

I am sorry to hear of your troubles. It appears that you need to connect your phone to iTunes to do an activation and/or restore.
Once iTunes is installed and you plug in your phone iTunes should guide you through the process.

HT204291 whenever i turn on apple tv the screen just shows 'setting date and time'

i also get an error code 200500 on my macbook when i try using airplay

It sounds like there's a problem with either the software or hardware of your AppleTV. Try unplugging AppleTV for at least 15 seconds, then plugging it back in. If AppleTV still does not work as expected, try the troubleshooting and restore process outlined in this support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4367.

The red, green and yellow buttons in the upper left corner of the screen disappear whenever I open Safari. I cannot minimize the Safari window which I often need to do if I am coordinating multiple windows. Does anyone know how to get those buttons back

The red, green and yellow buttons in the upper left corner of the screen disappear whenever I open Safari. I cannot minimize the Safari window which I often need to do if I am coordinating multiple windows between different applications. Does anyone know how to get those buttons back? I guess I could just switch betwen appliations, but I am used to doing it the other way.

You're welcome
You had Safari in full screen mode.

My iphone 5 is frozen on the screen that shows a cable and itunes symbol. I can not get the phone to enter DFU mode and itunes does not recognize the phone when plugged in to itunes. The phone was mid update when it was disrupted....

I plugged my iphone in to do an update and it was mid way through the update when the phone was accidentally disconnected. Now the phone is stuck on the screen that shows a cable and the iTunes image suggesting the phone needs to be plugged in to iTunes. I have plugged it in, powered on and off, attempted to enter DFU mode numerous times all with no success. ITunes does not recognize the phone and I continue to only receive the screen saying I need to plug in to iTunes.. Please help!

Hold Sleep Button with Home Button toghether until it restarts Always it takes 8 to 15 seconds, after it restarts leave the sleep button and remember do not leave the home button it automaticlly switches to DFU mode.

IPhone 5c was powered off; when turned back on screen only shows in black and white. Have tried several times with no success. Any suggestions?

I purchased the iPhone 5c about 4 months ago. I turned it off briefly last night and when I turned it back on, the screen wallpaper and app icons are now in black and white. I have tried turning it off and on again several times with no success; screen still shows only black and white. All other functions of phone/text work correctly. Any suggestions on what to try?

Hello Teri,
You may have greyscale turned on. Try going to Settings > General > Accessibility and toggle that off and it should go back to color. Check out the page below for more information.
