Why is my ipod nanos screen soo dark?

it has water damage but we put it in rice and it works likr the sound and all the buttoms excpt the screen wont get brighter i checked blacklight and brigtness still cant find why?

The water pretty much ruined your LCD screen. The only 2 things you can do is buy a LCD replacement screen or buy a new iPod nano.

Screen gets darker

I cant find anything like this on the forum but perhaps I just missed something. For months now every 2 or 3 weeks the bottom right, bottom centre or the whole screen gets a bit darker. Normally if its part of the screen it get better after an hour but after a while even that does not happen. In the end resetting the PRAM or PMU is the only way to go to sort it out. I calibrate my screen every few days but always check before doing so that the screen has not gone dark again. Now I think this all started when bluetooth did a vanishing act as well. The computer tells you the hardware does not exist any more! This all started after one of the many 10.3 updates. Might not be all related to each other but thought best to mention it. Any ideas? When I say the screen goes darker I mean it goes greyer. There is no colour tints.

Thank God other people have noticed this probelm as well! I too have been having this problem for about the last two month. Though, I noticed it after I purchased my iSight camera. I would certainly hope that this issue can be resolved quickly and does not become another "nano-issue."

TS3700 music stops playing when the screen goes dark, but the earbud jack is flush with the iPod. The Jack is hard to push in now. what is the problem?

Music stops playing when the screen goes dark; the earbud jack is flush with the iPod. The Jack is hard to push in. what is the problem? How do I Fix it?

And you are positive the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?
Have you tried another set of headphones to see if the problem persisted? If so, it's likely that the headphone jack needs replacing.

8GB nano screen blank and beeps

I have a 3rd Gen iPod Nano 8GB and I had a cracked LCD, so I bought a new one on eBay and carefully replaced the LCD screen. Once I put everything back together, I turn on the iPod and all I get is a white screen with a horizantal line in the center of the screen, and it beeps twice like every 5 mins...
I plugged it into a wall charger for like 20 mins, and like every 5 mins the screen goes dark, comes back on with the horizantal line in the center and beeps twice, and this keeps happening over and over again.
The thing that puzzles me is that when I connect it to the computer its recognized and shows up in iTunes, I was even able to restore it to firmware 1.1.3, and everything went fine, I was able to sync up some songs, and I'm even able to open up the iPod in 'My Computer'
So the only problem is that the screen wont display anything..., anyone know what the problem could be?

This most certainly sounds like something to do with the LCD screen you replaced.
Have you made sure it is connected up right? As it is functioning correctly except the screen?

I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues. The screen is very slow to respond. When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on. I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on

I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues. The screen is very slow to respond. When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on. I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on and back off. It is very, very frustrating. The other issue is that the battery drains very quickly. I have called Verizon numerous times regarding these issues. They tell me to do different things that never help. We eventually did a factory reset and it still has the same issues. Help! It is a brand new phone and unfortunately I am in a new two year contract. Ugh. Is there anyone out there who can help me?

I have done that several times. In fact, every time I call Verizon with my phone problems, they have me do the same things repeatedly. I keep telling them I have already done them but they insist they are SURE it will work this time. It never does. After doing the factory reset and it still not working correctly, they act like they are confused, almost like I am lying. I did what you suggested above on the slim chance it would work this time but it did not. I bought two S5's that day and the other one works perfectly fine. I know I got a bad phone. Verizon just does not listen. It is a bad phone. I just want a new phone that works properly. Is that too much to ask? I bought a new phone that has been bad from day one. Why oh why do I have to spend hours of my time on the phone, in the store, on the computer, trying to rectify this? It shouldn't be this difficult! Help please!!!

MacBook Air Boots to OS, then screen goes dark.

I have recently been working on an older style (A1304) MacBook Air with the 128GB SSD. I've been working on Mac's for years, and have worked on hundreds, but this is the first time I've ever come across this particular issue.
Liquid damaged MacBook Air. Keyboard and Trackpad mainly took the brunt of the spill. Popped off the keys, cleaned it all up. Button for the trackpad no longer works, but everything else does. Entire computer was disassembled, no other liquid was found.
MacBook Air boots up normally, and I was using it for a few hours to make sure everything was working fine. Left it to charge. Came back two hours later, and the screen was dark (but the image was still visible, as if the backlight was not on). Could see the mouse pointer moving, but backlight won't come back on. Turned off computer, turned it back on. Backlight works just fine, and it boots to the OS. Within 10 seconds of booting to OS, the screen goes dark (screen goes completely black with no image). Couple seconds later, light on the front starts to "breathe" indicating it's sleeping. Wake it back up, and image appears on the screen, but no backlight. Then it "goes to sleep" again.
Boot computer to a Flash Drive with Snow Leopard Installer and once the blue screen comes on as if the installer is just about to pop up, it "goes to sleep" immediaetly. Though, the backlight and computer will stay on in the Apple Hardware Test for as long as I want. (ran it several times, "no trouble found". Also reset the PRAM, nothing helps.
I was wondering if anyone has ever come across this. Completely baffled on whether it's a software or hardware (or combination of the both) issue I'm having.

The keyboard and trackpad reside on top of the motherboard and all the components of the computer. The keyboard and trackpad are not liquid proof. It is VERY likely that the liquid made its way to the motherboard and has affected those components. If EVER there is liquid spilled on a computer, the last thing you want to do is A. Turn it on to make sure it is working.. and B. Plug it in and charge it. Do the EXACT opposite. Unplug and turn off all power, and, if possible, remove the battery from it. The liquid itself doesnt do the damage...the damage is done when the liquid comes in contact with the circuits and shorts out the contacts and components. You could try to connect to an external monitor, if you have the means to do so, to see if it makes a difference, but it probably will not. I seems that the motherboard is not functioning correctly.

Lenovo T400 screen goes dark issue, some video driver problem

Lenovo:
Motherboard:
CPU Type: Mobile DualCore Intel Core 2 Duo P8600, 2400 MHz (9 x 267)
Motherboard Chipset: Intel Cantiga GM45
System Memory: 1992 MB (DDR3 SDRAM)
BIOS Type: Phoenix (08/19/08)
Display:
Video Adapter: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family
Video Adapter: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family
3D Accelerator: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470
Problem/Issue:
Driver problem appeard after upgrading from XP to Windows 7.
From the Device Manager I saw that ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 was not working properly and
a) I did the "update driver software." After restart the screen light was darker than usual. (This was usual if I was working from battery but I was plugged in this time. )
As I'm not the best with computers I thought my drivers might be in conflict and to prevent serious damages, I just
b) disabled ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 from device manager.
This actually resolved the dark screen problem.
c) then I went to Lenovo support site: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-72858
downloaded newest drivers for ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 (Switchable Graphics Driver)
and Intel 4500MHD (Intel GM45 Express Chip)
For some reason while installine the: Intel GM45 Display Driver (version 8.15.10.2302) gives me error:
"This Computer Does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software"
Also some problem appeard when installing the new downloaded version:
ThinkPad Switchable Graphics Driver (version 8.792.5-110424b-119200C)
d) so I went back to device manager and made an update to ATI Mobility Radeon from there.
Well, I got it working, but the screen went dark again. When I disable the driver it goes back to normal
brightness and when I enable it again, it stays normal.
I'll try to restart and see what happens

We had the excat same issue.
I could get the picuture back pressing the power button until it went to sleep and then wake it up again.
After the I went to device manager to delete all display drivers both Intel and ATI and then reboot.
doing the reboot windows found some drivers it could use.
I then installed the switchable driver from lenovo.
Now windows device manger report two display drivers:
1)
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series, Version 8.792.5.2000, Driver manufacturer ATI Technologies Inc
2)
Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family, Version, Version 8.792.5.2000, Driver manufacturer ATI Technologies Inc
So it seams the switchable ATI driver take over the Intel card and the Intel driver is not needed.
At least the problem is solved for us.

Ipod nano screen

Can anyone please tell me - ( I have spent many hours on the apple website looking for contact details of a real person; but no good )- what to do with my IPod Nano screen that does not work. It is not cracked but is very bright, unreadable and seems to have gibberish on it.
I have tried the RESET trick but can see nothing on the screen.
I live near DUBAI and nobody will talk to me about the problem. I won the thing in a competition last December and it only worked for a few weeks.
Please help me Obeonekinobe, you're my only hope.

On iPhone 4, the screen goes dark and freezes when I start Safari

All of a sudden, today I can't access the internet via Safari on my Verizon iPhone 4. If I click on a link in an email or start Safari, the screen goes dark and freezes. What's up with this and what the fix?

Hi
Try holding sleep/wake + power button for 10 seconds, until you see the Apple Logo.
See how that goes.

Screen is dark

Screen is dark, and adjusting the brightness on my Ipod4 won't help.

Try here:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store may be in order.

My IPad screen is dark and will not turn on. I have charged the battery and nothing. I have tried to reset the device as well with no luck. Any suggestions?

My IPad screen is dark and will not turn on. I have charged the battery and no luck. I have tried to restart it multiple times with no luck. During the restart, the screen will flicker like it is trying to restart but the silver apple never shows. Any suggestions?

Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke. If it has never been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

Screen went dark/dim. How do I fix it?

2nd generation iTouch.
Screen went dark/dim (can barely read it under a light).
Any ideas on how to fix it?

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.
