Nokia C7's display suddenly dims out even in brigh...

I was using my C7 outdoors(in bright light) when I suddenly noticed that its display had totally dimmed out. Light sensor was not covered with anything. The other functions of the phone were working fine but the display stayed dim for approx 3 minutes and it got alright by itself.
Now today, it happened for the fourth time.
I am wondering if anything is wrong with the light sensor or the AMOLED display.
I have heard of LCDs blacking out because they have back light or something. But never heard of AMOLED's doing that.
Please guide me as my phone is still under warranty period and its going to expire very soon. If my AMOLED fails after my warranty period, it's going to be very costly...
Thanks in advance.

yeah.. i'll do that if issue crops up again. Bcz it occurs not that frequently, it will be really tough explaining the issue to Nokia care guys.. its been 10 months already and my nokia care still can't see purple patches in my display...

  • What could suddenly cause LR 5.7 import menu and import button both dimmed out (Mac OSX)?

    Trying to help someone with this situation.  Been using LR 5.7 and importing.  At some point the import capabilities are dimmed out.  Could this be because the moved photos using the Finder rather than moving photos within LR?  Is there a way to recover from this without losing photos?

    If items have been moved using Finder, try right-clicking (control-click) on a folder name in the LR Library. Then choose update folder location and navigate to the new location. LR can then update the database links in the catalog.

  • My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

    My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Nokia 6085 Blank Display screen now after start up...

    Phone is two months old. Worked fine. Now all of a sudden, for no apparent reason,
    the display screen, is lit up, but, blank. Can't get Nokia greeting, nothing. Can call out,
    can receive calls, but, can't view screen. Removed battery, for whole night, put back in. Sim card is
    fine...still...blank screen.
    Need help...any suggestions., or is the phone just useless now?
    Thanks in advance to anyone for your time.
    Very disappointed.

    w0nderw0man, the 3-finger reset will not work for S40 phones like yours. It's only for Symbian phones like the N-series, E-series, 5800, etc.
    If there's a blank screen, it's best taken care of by a Nokia Care Point.
    I would suggest that you get a new phone instead of repairing the 6085, because the repair costs in most cases as much as a new phone of similar or better features. Just my two cents.

  • No broadband for days after suddenly cutting out l...

    Hi all,
    I'm hoping you can help me with a very frustrating issue I am facing. On Friday 13th Jan, at 1pm and without warning, my BT broadband connection died and has not yet come back (so 4 days and counting).
    I am an IT technician by trade and normally I am able to resolve any issues with these things myself. However, this time I exhausted all options (filters, lines, different router etc) and had to call BT's (not very good) offshore call centre, who use their wonderful training to read through a script asking me if the power is on
    Anyway, long story short, my Fault was logged but nothing done. So I called back on Saturday, same script (even though I've been through it already...) and at the end of the call he says he'll escalate and next level support will call me on Sunday morning - apparently he had booked me in for a callback between 9 - 11am. And you can guess what happened - nothing, no phone call, nada.
    So again I have to call the wonderful offshore call centre and go through the bl**dy script AGAIN. I've done it I tell him, but "Sorry Sir I must check these few things" **bleep** it. I'm losing my rag here and i am a very calm person by nature.
    They have no idea what's wrong with my broadband. I tell them it was working on Friday 1pm then it suddenly cut out. Days later it's still not back, so there is a problem and I know it's not in my house.
    My friends down the street have broadband with Zen and Plusnet and their connection is fine. So all otehr ISPs are working OK in our area.
    My neighbour is with BT Broadband, like me, and his connection is also dead!
    So the problem is not in my house! Even then they're sending an engineer down ...I expect he won't turn up though, but even if he does I can't imagine what he'll do in my house, because I'm fairly certain the problem is not there.
    No communication to tell us what's wrong, or that BT are aware of the problem and working on it and will have my broadband back on x date etc.  No record of it on BT's Service Status page or on 0800 169 0199. I can't believe how poor their service is. When I moved to BT I thought I was paying more for a better service, for a one-stop-shop that wouldn't let me down. I wish I'd done my research properly!
    What can I do to get my broadband back?
    Can I cancel my contract mid-term and move to another ISP which is working in my area?
    Please help, I'm so **bleep** stressed over this as it's preventing my wife and I from being able to work at home.
    Just for information, I'm in post code area TW19.

  • My iPad Mini display is dim so i can barely see anything and I maxed up the back lighting is it broken already??

    Bought an iPad mini not long ago and the display suddenly went "black", there is absolutely no brightness in the display rendering it useless. I can make out the icons when i sit down in the dark and i can see the back lighting is set to max. I live in denmark and we have no apple store, its still in the warranty period, but where do i take it for repair? Can it be a software bug? I want to fix the problem fast. When i sit in absolute darkness with the wall plug connected I can see one backlight lighting up from the buttom right corner where the speaker is.

    Assuming that you have a credit card in the UK, with a valid billing address for that credit card that matches the credit card statement ....
    Launch the app store app. Go to the Featured Tab. Swipe to the bottom of the screen. Your ID is accessible in the lower left corner. Tap on the ID. Then tap View Apple ID. Enter your password. Go down to Country/Region and change the store to the UK in there.

  • Why would a control have the customize option dimmed out when it is right clicked?

    A numeric control in one of the examples has the customize option dimmed out when right clicked. Why would that be? Is there a way to get it into the control editor or saved as a control?

    Just to clarify my earlier statement:
    While customization was greyed out prior to LabVIEW 8.0 for items in the dialog (=system) palette, even LabVIEW 8.0+ does not allow much customization. For example if I try to customize the "System Numeric" control, the "wrench" is still greyed out and the only thing I can do is resize the control horizontally in the control editor.
    This is as expected!
    Dialog (system) controls inherit their visual appearance from the OS, and the same control will look different under Windows XP, Windows 2000, or MAC, etc. They adapt to the desktop theme, including fonts, font colors, and other colors, etc.. The attached Image shows the same pair of controls and how they change appearance if I switch the desktop theme between "Windows XP" and "Windows Classic".
    Customization would make no sense, because the appearance is determined by the OS, not by you.

  • HP w17e Monitor dims out

    I have a HP w17e monitor. When I turn on the monitor it works fine, then after a couple of seconds (about 5-10) it dims out. I can still see the display but it's so dim that it can't be read. Could that be a sign that the monitor itself is messed up; or could it be easily fixed?

    Hi MJ2822,
    Welcome to the HP Community! I see that your monitor is having a dimming issue. What do you have the monitor connected to a desktop or a laptop? Is it an HP computer as well? If so can I get your product number? If you are using as an external monitor it could be a power plan issue. What operating system are you using?

  • Display keeps dimming after 30 seconds, randomly!

    After 30 seconds or so, the brightness will dim. I know this can be turned off (at least I think), but I can't figure out what is causing it. It also seems to be random, but that may just be my imagination.
    How can I keep my display from dimming after 30 seconds? Thanks.

    You might try to reset the SMC and/or PRAM.

  • Screen sharing icon in Messages dimmed out when it shouldn't be

    Running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 on 2009 27" iMac. I was attempting to share my screen with another person also running OS X Yosemite (also 10.10.2) via Messages and the screen sharing icon is dimmed out (while both FaceTime video and audio icons are NOT dimmed out). I went through creating and entering an app specific password for both Messages and FaceTime and my iCloud account is signed into both. Tried signing out and back in as well, but that did not resolve it. Tried rebooing as well, but the issue remains. The other person is able to screen share with other individuals running Yosemite so I assume it's something on my end, but I have no idea what.
    Ideas?

    Hi,
    The App is Messages.
    It can have an iMessages account is use.
    This distinction is becoming more important as time goes on.
    In Yosemite the Messages App can start a  Video (or Audio and also Screen Sharing) two different ways.  (it's related bear with me).
    As the iChat app the AIM and Jabber accounts have been able to Video chat within the app since iChat 2 for AIM accounts and iChat 3 for Jabber when it was added.  (Screen Sharing is added at iChat 4)
    This needs the Video Menu > Enable the three items for Video, Audio and Screen Sharing.
    In Yosemite the iMessages account can start a video from the Main window when a text Chat is going on using the Details option to right.
    To start an AIM Video chat (same for Jabber and Bonjour) you need the Buddy list to be displayed, Highlight the Buddy and then use either the icon at the bottom of the Buddy List or the Buddies menu.
    To Start an iMessages Video chat you need to first set up FaceTime with the same Apple ID account (it can be done with a different ID but this can cause confusing at the other end about who is calling).
    Then you use the Details option having started a Text (iMessages) chat with them.
    This in turn Invokes the FaceTime App and 'Calls' the ID your are iMessaging to.  If you are using a different ID in FaceTime they see that and not the one in the iMessages account.
    Screen Sharing
    Screen Sharing is similar in that it (iMessages account) invokes an outside app to do the Screen Sharing.
    You first need to go to System Preferences > Sharing and enable the Screen Sharing item.
    Then in Messages in the Main window during a iMessages Chat/conversation with someone you need to use the Details option top right and select the Linked Squares for the Screen Sharing.
    This invokes the Screen Sharing App (System/Library/Core Services/Applications) and connects the two computers with and Audio chat along side.
    For the iChat type accounts (AIM, Jabber and Bonjour) you use the Buddy list like the Video chats.
    NOTES.
    If you have other Macs on your LAN and they appear in the Finder's Side bar as Shares you can select them and use the button in the Finder Window to Screen Share with those Macs.
    This too invokes the Screen Sharing app.
    Another way is to use the Go Menu in the Finder > Go to Server and enter VNC:// and the IP address instead of AFP or SMB (Or Browse instead)
    In the System Preferences > Sharing you will also find Remote Management.
    This cannot be on the same time as Screen Sharing. However in use from the Finder it allows the Screen Sharing described above.
    All of these use the Client end of Apple Remote Desktop (ARD).
    However the Finder methods described do not come wither Audio Chat described for the iMessages  or AIM/Jabber/Bonjour way.
    Also if you try to use the Details method with an AIM or Jabber of Bonjour Buddy it will not work as it tries to do this the iMessages way.
    Basically "icons" and "Messages"  is not enough to say where you are in the app to pin point this further.

  • RAW Fine Tuning Dimmed out for D80 RAW Picture

    When I open a "RAW" file taken with a Nikon D80, the "RAW Fine Tuning" options are all dimmed out in the "Adjustment" panel and won't let me make adjustments. It shows my camera properly as a Nikon D80, but none of the sliders (Boost, Sharpening, Chroma Blur, etc) will work.
    Is there some setting I have to adjust, or is it something else?

    There may be a simpler solution yet - when you first click a raw file, all of these options are greyed out until the "real" file loads. At first it just displays a preview, and while that is happening, stuff is greyed out - once the file loads, the controls become active.
    So, just check if you have the same problem if you let the file sit there for a minute until it finishes loading Remember - Aperture is still pretty slow with big files (it just looks fast.)

  • Display problems dimming/burring

    My 17' g5 early 2006 model is almost new out of box and the display burrs and dims changing size slightly in and out -making me dizzy. I hear a clicking noise when this happens sometimes once every few seconds. It randomly stops and starts. Tried many solutions which all failed. I was on phone with apple techs. for several hours ---four calls total. The only local place that works on them here in Gainesville, Fl. is backed up for weeks and I'm going into my third week on waiting list. The other places involve up to 8 hours of driving. Apple Co. has been no help. Really frustrated and feeling ripped off.
