My ipod screen is solid white

I dropped my ipod and the screen turned completely white... Everything still works on it, but I don't get to choose what song I'm listening to!!

Some people solved that by letting the battery run down and connecting in recovery mode, explained in this article:
iOS: Recovery mode

GS70 - Does not boot - black screen with solid white dash

Sorry for the long post - I've been beating my head against this problem all day, filed a report ticket and really need help from anyone who has ideas.
Yesterday evening after finally relenting and allowing the patch Tuesday updates to install on my GS70 Stealth I tried to power on my computer and it remained stuck at the MSI logo. I waited 3 hours with no success before powering it off and attempting to access the bios by hitting the delete button. The screen turned black except for one non-blinking white dash near the center of the screen. This screen also remains indefinitely and requires a hardware power off to work. I've tried all of the function key presses and recovery shortcuts to no avail.
Eventually I tried to boot into linux via a live USB. I still could not access the bios but, to my surprise, so long as this USB is in my system, Windows happily boots. After this I tried to revert to a system restore point before the updates but that did not resolve the problem. I also tried to update the BIOS but there is no way to install BIOS updates that I know of that doesn't require accessing the old BIOS first (which I cannot do because the black screen with a white dash is still all that shows up). I tried forcing the UEFI bios to load through windows recovery settings with no luck either.
I've sent in an RMA/Support request and hopefully MSI will repair or replace my device but I sent it in for an RMA literally less than two months ago and to be having to do it again so soon is starting to turn me off of the product. For me to insure and ship my device to MSI costs a little over $100 each time which is rapidly turning this $1600 product into an $1800 one and turning me from an MSI brand loyalist to a 'one-star-review everywhere' evangelist. Is it possible that something MSI did during the last RMA screwed up my motherboard (they replaced the disfunctional steel series keyboard with a new marginally more functional steel series keyboard)? Does MSI ever cover the shipping costs for an RMA if the RMA is a result of damage that they caused to the device? Is there anything I should do to try to avoid burning more money trying to get a luxury-priced product I've already paid for to function?

i had similar problem myself on my first GS70 it has some sort of bios problem that it random hangs itself :/ causes OS not to boot and bios refuses to load but i managed to get my recovery USB to boot but not bios yet so i sent laptop off for repair they replaced the motherboard so i got it back then i had an faulty gpu :/ so i took it back and got money back so i bought new one some where else since than i havent had problem so this sort of problem sounds like bios firmware isnt booting propertly :/ so have you tried removing msata and HDD from laptop and then power laptop on? to see if bios gets forced on if so power it off put msata back on and so then power laptop back on and bios shall work again

Why does my imac show vertical coloured lines on bootup? Then the screen turns solid white

My iMac 3.4 i7 OS 10.6.8 is showing 5 Virtical Coloured lines when I turn it on. The imac does not boot. The screen goes clear white. Anbody aware of this problem if so what is the cause?

Hi Leon Ellenport,
It seems I have the same issue with my iMac, and I am thinking about my plan of action. Did you ever fixed this issue? If yes, how?
Thank you very much in advance, and sorry for bothering.

My iPod touch has solid white screen, won't reset...what can i do?

I was checking my facebook and the screen went ****-eyed...when I tried to press the home key, nothing happened...pressed off button, nothing...tried reset (home and off for 10 seconds) screen went white...now what??

- Connect to computer and it iTunes ee the iPod restore.
- The try lettting the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try the reset, and then the connect to computer and restore.
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.

IPod screen has turned white. Screen is faintly visible and still works, but is almost impossible to see. Tried restore, and Home/Power/Volume reset.

The screen is a very bright white, but buttons are faintly visible. When I do anything with the screen, it creates an "afterimage" that lasts about a minute - e.g. swiping through homepages leaves multiple homepages superimposed over the current one. I've reset several times, and done a full restore. No changes.
I took a screenshot, and it looked completely normal on my PC - problem is with the screen itself.
4th gen iPod with latest software update. 1 year and 1 month old. I have never dropped it, or gotten it wet, or anything that could damage or break the iPod... the screen just changed.

Have you tried the troubleshooting here:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting

My ipod screen has been white for almost 24 hours

even by trying the hold down the -sleep/home button all it does is go back to the white screen instead of the apple logo popping up. >:( i dont want to restore and have all my data taken off. including family photos, 500+ downloads of music, important messages and such

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
I think you will have to restore.

IPhone Solid White Screen

I had been having some software issues with my iPhone and decided to restore it using iTunes. The phone reset and started syncing all of my apps and contacts back on. I walked away and came back about ten minutes later and the screen had turned a solid white. The phone was non-responsive and was not showing up in iTunes. So I hard reset it using the power and home buttons, the screen went black. Now the phone will not turn on. I tried plugging it into my iMac again and it won't recognize the phone, nor will the phone respond. I also tried plugging it into a power outlet and the phone still won't respond. Please help!

My Iphone screen went solid white last night and i was worried that i had killed it because i was at a pool. However, later i felt the phone vibrating so i picked it up and accidentally swiped across the screen (apparently where the unlock slide is) and i started to hear someone talk on the speaker phone. Now i can receive calls and guess my way to my ipod. So the screen itself is either the part that is messing up or the part of the electronics that controls the imaging. I have tried all the different functions i can to reset it: reset, reboot, hard reset and none of them work making me think that its not software but hardware. Going to genius bar today to have it looked at. I'll update this as soon as i get an answer.

My ipod nano (6th gen)'s screen don't turned on... when resetting it, the screen turns to white.. the most worst is, it doesn't work out...

I really don't know to fix it... What happen was, when i played my ipod nano, it turns to white... i don't know if I accidentally clicked anything on the screen or the buttons at the side of the device... What i did was, I connected it in my laptap because I was thinking that maybe my ipod was in hang mode. When I was able to connect it, the itunes recognized it but I can't played the music and the screen in my ipod screen was still white... SO, I restored it in factory setting... the same thing happen... i don't know what happen, so I need your help...

You can work through the remaining five 5 R's of troubleshooting.

It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity. A third party service will actually replace the damage part for a little less. Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.
