N96 freezes/stuck when starting up and screen prob...

Hi, I am new and i would like to know why my N96 stucks at a blank white screen when starting up, is this what they call the "White screen of death"? I currently uses firmware version 12.043.  Sometimes when I remove my microSD card and then turn on my cellphone, it starts up normally, is there something wrong with my microSD card? or is it my N96? If so, is there a way to fix this problem? Also, sometimes when I leave my phone on standby mode and it's backlight turns off, i can't turn the backlight back on or even turn off my cellphone, I tried turning off the lockguard, but it gets stucks with backlight off and only showing the battery status, and the time, is there something wrong with my cellphone? Any solution? Thank you in advance!

If the phone refuses to start correctly when the microSD card is inserted but starts up normally when you remove the microSD card, then it certainly looks like the microSD card has a problem.
It could simply be data corruption, in which case reformatting the memory card (in the phone!) should put things right. This might also have something to do with the other freeze-ups you mention.
If formatting the card doesn't solve the problem then leave it out of the phone for a while and see if the phone carries on misbehaving. If there are no further problems with the memory card removed altogether then it's a fairly safe bet that the card is faulty.

  • Freezing/hanging when taking pictures and videos  in i phone 4

    freezing/hanging when taking pictures and videos  in i phone 4 with flash on.

    Hi Mister.
    Let's try to answer your questions.
    - The E5 does not have a red light when you take pictures.
    - I don't know about battery life comparing with E6 and E72, just can say on the E5 is quite good. It has a 1200 mAh battery, you should check the others, but also the features of each one, i.e. the E6 is a touchscreen one, so it consumes more power.
    - It has a notification white light, around the navigation button.
    Regards.

  • [CS3 Win]It is possible read an ini file when starting InDesing and hide some menus?

    Hi all.
    My plugin reads a ini file to configurate the main menu.
    It is possible read this file when starting InDesing and hide some submenus created in Myplugin.fr?
    I have no problem to hide/show a menu, but I don´t know what is the first event that runs after loading my plugin.
    Is there other possible way to do this?
    Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Juanma.

    Have you tried implementing a startup/shutdown service provider (IID_IAPPSTARTUPSHUTDOWN)? If it's too late to hide the menu, then an IMenuFilter/IActionFilter should do the job for you to hide menu. Or you can dynamically build the menu on the fly too (see dynamicmenu sample from SDK)

    This is sometimes caused by Bad Blocks on the Hard Drive.
    If 10.7, hold down Command-R at startup, and choose Disk Utility.
    If 10.6 or earlier, boot to the Installer/Utilities DVD, answer only the "what language" question and wait for the MenuBar to be drawn. Choose Disk Utility from the Utilities Menu.
    Select your Hard drive by Make & Model and check the SMART Status (lower right of the right window). Choose "Repair Disk" . This ONLY examines and repairs the Directory area of the drive, but may improve things a bit. If errors cannot be repaired, you may need a stronger tool, or a new drive.

  • Satellite U - Crashes when starting windows and recovery cannot fix

    Most of the time but not every time the laptop crashes when starting windows.
    I get a blue screen, a dump file is created and then it restarts and gives me the option of starting windows normally or using windows recovery. The windows recovery cannot fix the problem.
    When I select the option of opening windows normally everything works fine with no problems.
    If I restart the laptop it never crashes.
    The problem only happens about 90% of the time when switching it on.
    The problem started soon after buying the laptop in October.
    Originally it came with Windows Vista and I wondered if the problem was with Vista so yeterday I upgraded to Windows 7 but it still crashes on most start ups. Otherwise the laptop works fine and I am pleased with it.
    I suspect the problem might be with Realtec but the drivers appear to be up to date. My internet security is trend micro.
    I wondered if it might be a hardware problem when it happens under both Vista and windows 7.
    Has anyone got any ideas about what might be causing the laptop to crash on startup?

    I have exactly the same problem with the laptop (U500 11E) crashing on startup, recovery can't do anything and sometimes I get a Windows "solution" box that tries to find something and then just vanishes.
    I followed the same procedure as Dave, by upgrading to Win7 thinking that might fix the problem, but it clearly didn't. I also updated all drivers and the BIOS to the latest versions.
    I think my trouble started not right out of the box but only after I upgraded to Vista Service Pack 1, but I'm not completely sure.
    It is pretty annoying because of course it now takes twice as long to get the laptop up and running.
    Finding someone else who also has the problem makes me wonder if the problem might have another cause and if there might be a way to fix it?

  • ANE Native extension freezes app when debug=false and using non-interpreted IOS build

    There’s a problem with Adobe Air iOS that is somewhat known, and that problem has an unknown variant that’s very tricky.
    The problem is with linking optimized flash and ANEs. If the linker treats the ANE as an included SWC, calls to the library will hang the app. But it will work in the ADB simulator, and it will work in debug builds and in interpreted builds. It only manifests when a release build is attempted.
    The known remedy for this problem is to specify the ANE code as extern to the app, usually via external-library-path argument instead of library-path option.
    What I’ve learned is that even with correct linkage specified, our apps show this problem anyway. And the reason is that the calls between the app and the ANE happen in a non-first frame. A simple test case of a preloader on frame #1 and all the content on second frame will “intern” the symbols of the ANE, breaking the application; but only in non debug, non-interpreted builds, like ipa-test and ipa-ad-hoc.
    Adobe, please detect and report this condition so others won’t all the problems to deal with that I’ve encountered. Thanks.

    I seem to be running into freezes with my ANE's and it has been hard to troubleshoot and came across your post.  I am using Flash CS6 so not sure how to apply your remedy.  The options in CS6 for library path ANE's are 'Merged into Code' and 'Runtime Shared Library'.  Currently it is merged, not sure if this is the same issue or not but I am trying everything here...

  • My Power Mac G5 goes into the power sving mode on the start up and screen  stays blank. Monitor is OK. Help.....

    I Hv a Power Mac G5. s soon as I power it on, the monitor (Lacie) screen flashes a message saying It has gone into Power Saving mode and the screen stays blank.
    Once it happened before and was told to keep Command, option, P & R kes pressed while it is starting up and to keep it pressed untill it restarts. Tried that, but it does not work.
    How do I correct it?
    Please help.....
    I am located in India. and trying to exhaust all available options before I contact Apple Support......

    It sounds like your video card is not coming up, as the monitor is indicating that it probably has no active video coming from the computer.
    Two things to try:
    First, does video come up in safe boot (hold the shift key down while powering up)? 
    Second, how old is the PRAM backup battery?  While not a universal cause of video not coming up, we have seen reports of a weak PRAM backup battery being the cause of that failure.  If the battery is more than a couple of years old, a replacement is a good and relatively inexpensive initial troubleshooting step.  (My own theory is that at boot, the PRAM yields garbage data to the system which, in some cases, crashes a video driver or does other mischief.)
    If the computer is otherwise coming up OK, that is to say, you power it up and it hasn't clicked itself off and after a few minutes the fans haven't ramped into high gear, which indicates that the system is actually up and running even without video output, then it is relatively likeley that the video card has failed and must be replaced.
    One final thing to try would be a PMU or SMU reset (depending on where your G5 is in the progression of the model).  Information on PMU is here and information on SMU is here.

  • My iPhone 4s refuses to use certain chargers that work on other iPhone 4s's such as the Mophie Juice Pack Air and when starting up the screen is from time to time covered in white lines that fade with time, what is wrong?

    Read the question. This has been on going since I recieved my phone but has gotten worserecently.

    With iOS 7.1, Apple has incorporated a means of sensing the cable and charger as to their meeting the Apple specs.  That does not mean they prevent use of third-party components, but those components must be fully compliant with Apple's specs.  There have been a lot of users asking why they get the device not supported message...rarely is due to anything other than a cable or charger not fully compliant with the specs.
    Be sure you are using cables and chargers that comply, and if you get the message, it means there is a problem with the component.

  • ITunes freezes computer when starting to run first time

    iTunes 7.0.x was working fine on my new Windows Vista computer. When I started it up today I got an message to upgrade to 7.1. I installed it and when running it it freezes my computer 3/4 of the "updating library" process. The whole computer slows down tremendously and then the screen turns black with just an arrow showing. I uninstalled and reinstalled and the same problem keeps happening. For a version which was supposed to correct Vista problems, it has broken something which was running fine before

    Hey
    iTunes currently does not support Vista. This article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305042 will give you more detailed information about Vista compatability and will be updated when Vista and iTunes are compatible.

  • Ipod photo stuck in disk mode and screen is in Black and white

    came to use my ipod photo after about a week of not using it. when i took it out the colour screen was in black and white and the screen is stuck to saying it is in disk mode with a large tick.
    the ipod will mount and does show up in itunes it will even play songs via itunes. i have tried resetting to no avail and my next option was to restore to factory settings which i am loathe to do as i have songs on my ipod that are no longer in my itunes library.
    anyone had similar issue or can suggest a fix
    thanks

    well the problem has been solved...hope this may help others having this issue.
    i basically just let the battery run out, then connected the ipod to my laptop and voila...it reset and all is well again...
    pretty random, but glad it is all working again.

  • Xperia Z3 Compact camera error when starting from locked screen (symbol lock)

    Hi
    I'm a new owner of Xperia Z3 Compact and I have noticed a problem when launching camera. The app itself works perfectly well but when trying to launch camera from locked phone (screen locked with symbol) it shows only black screen with error message that camera app it unaccessible. After removing lock screen protection both camera symbol on lock screen and dedicated camera button works as intended. Is it supposed to be that way? On my previous phone I could launch camera app without unlocking screen but couldn't access any other parts of the phone. I'd love to have it working the same way here especially with the dedicated camera button.
    Hoping for a fast answer. 
    Regards

    You may need to perform a software repair using PC Companion.The process will erase all internal memory.You might need to charge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 60% battery.
    Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device).
    Open PC companion->support zone->phone/tablet software update->repair my phone/tablet blue highlighted.Follow the steps given,do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable. If PC companion does not start the repair process, you might need to run it in compatibility mode with Windows 7 (in some cases XP).
    All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us - J.R.R. Tolkien
