Phone screen goes blank

It seems that after 911 fix(update) my phone screen goes blank after dialing and to enter voice mail I code have to keep pressing unlock button for screen to return for split second for each code digit. Has anyone else seen this behavior?
Thanks,
enr

I noticed exactly the same thing. It's a struggle to retrieve my voicemail because the screen goes blank and by the time I finally get to finish entering my voicemail password, the Verizon system times out and says goodbye.
COME ON VERIZON, MY PHONE IS NOT USEABLE LIKE THIS !!!
One thing gets fixed, 3 things get broken. Enough already.
Instead of giving us half-a*s "band-aid" updates, let's get us updated to FROYO and fix the darn phone the right way.

Howdy mbaeguasu,
It sounds like your iPhone may be restarting unexpectedly while you’re using it. Take a look at the article linked below and, if you haven't already, try installing the latest version of iOS on your device.
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support

When I am on a phone call and I double click the button to go to my home screen, then open another application (usually my calendar program, Calengoo), my screen goes blank and I am not able to return to either the app, the phone, or the home screen.

When I am on a phone call and I double click the button to go to my home screen, then open another application (usually my calendar program, Calengoo), my screen goes blank and I am not able to return to either the app, the phone, or the home screen. If I am speaking to a person, if they hang up then I am back to the phone application. If I'm leaving a message, I am unable to return to the phone screen to end the call, and have to wait until the other phone hangs up. I'm also unable to switch back and forth to look at my calendar if I'm calling someone about scheduling. This has only started happening since the most recent iOs update. I run into situations similar to this about once per day during the work week, as I use my phone is this manner quite often. While not life altering it is quite frustrating. Can anyone here help me figure out a way to avoid this? If it helps, I have noticed a general downgrade in overall performance starting two system updates ago (apps opening more slowly, closing unexpectedly more often, etc.). I have an iPhone 3GS with the latest OS update.
Thank you for any help or suggestions,
Chris

I could be corrupted backup.
You can check the notification settings for message.
Settings>Notification Center>Messages>Alert Style
It should be on Banners or Alerts.
Settings>Messages> Turn on Imessage and send as SMS and below that "Blocked" to check if you have any numbers block might be blocking the message.
You can also do a hard reset by holding power and home till it restarts and release after seeing the apple logo.
Still doesn't work? Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings

Cisco IP Phone 7945-G or 7965-G screen goes blank randomly with SCCP firmware 9.2(3) on CUCM 8.6(2a)

Hello everybody,
I have the following situation:
A WAN VoIP network, with centralized call processing model (central site and few branches)
Cisco IP Phones 7945-G and 7965-G running SCCP
Cisco Unified Communications Manager 8.6(2a)
SCCP firmware Release 9.2(3) for the above mentioned hardware models
The problem that occurs randomly is that either when the firmware was SCCP firmware Release 9.2(1), or it was upgraded to SCCP firmware Release 9.2(3), approximately 5 Cisco IP Phones, the screen goes blank, the phone being still operational (but difficult to operate in such circumstances), and the problem persists until it is disconnected from PoE, and re-connected.
Please if possible, any solution to this problem is much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Hello again,
In addition to what I already mentioned, I would like to detail a few aspects, in order to be more specific with this behavior:
-          From the total number of Cisco IP phones which is less than 1000, this behavior happened randomly, within 1 month and 3 weeks
-          Actually, it was a total number of 8 Cisco IP phones whose display went off, 4 being located in Headquarters, and from the other 4, 3 were in the same Branch, and 1 in another Branch
-          Also, 7 IP phones are connected in non-Cisco switches with PoE, and 1 IP Phone was power supplied from AC adapter
-          initially, all existing IP phones had firmware Release 9.2(1) for 7945G and 7965G, and the mentioned behavior happened with 4 IP phones
-          then, for all IP phones, it were upgraded to firmware Release 9.2(3) for 7945G and 7965G, but problem re-appeared with other 4 IP phones
The only solution that solved the issue for each IP phone was to disconnect the power from the IP phones.
I hope that you might help me on how to get solving this problem, and I am looking forward for any useful idea or solution.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Radu

Standard troubleshooting...
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red (-) to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
If still a problem restore with your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

Solved my scratchy speaker problem. Do a hard reset. Home,sleep button. Hold till screen goes blank.

Had a scratchy speaker problem and strange sounds when ipad shutdown. Hold the home button and sleep button till screen goes blank. Turn on after a minute or two. Fixed it on ipad 4. Good luck.

Apple replaced with new phone under warranty, had to haggle a little to get that done. Set up new one as a new phone, not from a backup, so as to not transfer any possible software issues to the new one, still re-setting up everything... all was good for the first week or so, now this one does the same thing, plus a new issue. While on calls the screen will go black, and the absolute only way to get control of the phone again is to hold both buttons down until the apple logo appears and phone restarts. Additionally, sometimes it will now become unanswerable when receiving a phone call, has only happened on vibrate, but it will go into a continuous vibrating mode and no way to answer the call or stop it, other than the two button restart. Does it on normal calling, and on 4g lte calling setting (verizon).

Displays call for only 2 rings then the actual screen goes blank

I have a 3GS and already had it changed once. When someone calls, the screen shows the caller and then after a couple of rings, the screen goes blank/black. The phone still rings but you cannot then see who is calling and you have to click on the home button. My old iphone 2G did not do this. Does anyone have the same problem and/or know how to solve this?

Shut down and restart the app...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red to delete the Mail app from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
- Restart the Mail app

6280 Time and date reset screen goes blank

Whenever I turn my 6280 off at night when I switch it on the next morning the time goes back to 00:00 and the date doesnt change automatically. Called up 3 and they werent much help at all just said to switch auto update of date and time on which I did and it didnt make any difference!!!! Has anyone else had any probs like this?
Also my phone occasionally cuts out either when I am on the internet or just when I am using it. The screen goes blank and then after a couple of seconds it comes back again. Apparently there is a firmware upgrade for the phone and the version I have at the moment is 3.36 does anyone have any idea where I can get this from??

It may help to force close the Messages app, then restart the device.

u can ask me on *****. May be i dont come here for a couple of days, if my answer worked, i will place that here, but u can contact me on *******i ll let you know what happened.

Why does my iPad screen goes blank

Just bought my iPad 3, screen goes blank frequently, even after rebooting and /or closing and opening app? Any ideas?

It goes without saying that it should not do that. What exactly though does "it goes blank" mean? Do you get a white screen, a black screen? What is a blank screen?
If you just bought it, contact the store where you bought it and explain the situation ... return it. Or contact Apple phone support. It's free for the first 90 days.

N93 Screen Goes Blank & Comes Back On (Auto-restar...

Hi, I have the Nokia N93 black. It says it is made in Finland.
I have been using it for aboout a year and I got this phone by trading it with my earlier phone. I didn't get the phone as a new item but rather a 2nd-hand trade.
I have this problem of the screen going blank and comes back (auto-restart) sometimes. It is not very often but from what I observed, it happens usually during a long phone call, not every time, but sometimes.
I've looked around the in user reviews and forums and it seems that there is quite a lot of problems with the phone. Examples of these problems include auto-restart, auto shut-off, hangs and such. The fortunate part is that my phone doesn't hang.
I'm using the latest firmware, v20.0.058 and there isn't any updates ever since.
What do you think? Do you think this is a hardware problem? Do you think I should even be bothered about it? I'm worried because I didn't get it as a new item. Could the earlier user traded because he damaged it?

It can be either a hardware fault or a software fault.
To rule out a software fault you'll want to re-install the current firmware with Nokia Software Updater. If that solves the problem then it was a software fault. If not, then it's a hardware fault and you'll need to take the phone in to your nearest Nokia Care Point.

IPhone Screen Goes Blank

While making a phone call, when I take the phone away from my ear, the screen goes blank and I cannot end call or see call waiting - finally the screen comes back to slide to unlock, and the phone call is ended.
Anyone else having this issue? Any fixes?

WOW! So that's what the issue is!
Petshows, since getting my 3G last Friday I've been plagued by the same problem. It's been so chronic I suspected a fault in the iPhone itself. My first gen unit never exhibited this behavior so I was on my way to the Apple Store tomorrow to report it to the techs at the Genius Bar. But...
...I'm now convinced that Nathan C. has identified the source of the problem. I use a DLO brand "Jam Jacket" I bought for my original iPhone. It has little cut outs at the top for the position of the proximity sensor and the earpiece. I now suspect that either the 3G proximity sensor is less sensitive or its position is slightly different from the first model and it isn't aligning properly any more.
To test out Nathan C.'s hypothesis, I made a call long enough for the 3G screen to go dark. Lifting it away from my ear, I verified that it was not waking up as it should. I then flexed the upper part of the Jam Jacket's case to reposition the proximity sensor cut out and VOILA! the iPhone screen wakes and I can press the Hang Up button as usual. Now my only issue is whether to modify the cut outs and continue using this case or buy one that avoids the source of the problem.

Hell yeah.
