Phone screen NOT working but phone IS working

Like the subject says, my screen is not working, but phone works fine.
I was able to guess the 'turn on USB storage' button and I got everything backed up.
I didn't drop or let my anger loose on the phone =P.
This is my 3rd replacement phone! I read another thread on the first page of someone complaining they are on their 4th phone. Prior to that reading, I was hoping I could upgrade or convince them to give me a NEW phone rather than a used. I guess that won't be happening.
I also tried all sorts of battery pulls including waiting 30min before I put it back in...none of this worked.
So I guess my best bet atm is to take it in to the store?
Thanks!

I am on my second Droid. The first one was damaged due to me dropping it. I have insurance and had a replacement sent to me. A month later I get the BSOD Black or Blank Screen of Death. I did the battery thing as well as a hard rest and nothing.
I am three months away from an upgrade and I am starting to think of downgrading to just an ordinary phone.
It seems that smartphones are too problematic and require dealing with multiple parties i.e Verizon, Motorola, and the Insurance company for the phone.

Help! Dropped phone, screen is black but phone still works...

I dropped my iPhone 4S today and the screen went black (thankfully it didn't shatter), but the phone still works perfectly fine. I can still touch it and everything; unfortunately I obviously can't see what I'm doing because it's black. Another problem is that my lock button has been broken/jammed for a while, so I can't try to reset it with holding the home button and lock button, which I've heard could work.
Is there something I can do myself? Or should I just bring it to an Apple store? Even then, can they fix it or is my phone done for good?

Dropped phone, screen not broken, but is completely black

I recently dropped my iPhone, but was relieved when I picked it up and the screen wasn't cracked. However, the screen is completely black. I've tried to turn it off/on, I've tried to hold down the on/off button and the home button at the same time, nothing. It will vibrate intermittently if I plug it in to charge. My question, is this a screen issue, loose cable, can it be fixed? My other question, are my texts on my SIM card? If so, if I purchase a new phone, can I trade out my SIM card and my info/texts/pics etc, transfer to that phone?

If you've backed up to iTunes when your pics, text, voicemail, etc should move over if you buy another iPhone.

Phone screen is back but phone is ringing

My screen is black and the phone is ringing. Not sure how to fix.

A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
No content is affected by this procedure.

HT201269 if your i phone 5 screen was destroyed but phone still works how do you transfer contacts and photos form old phone

My i phone 5 screen shattered yesterday, but phone still works. Is there a way I can still retrieve my contacts and photos from my other phone?

Yes, if it's an iPhone that support iCloud and the photos are in the iPhone 5 Camera Roll.
The other photos albums should be in your photos library on your computer.

Is there a way to program an ICE (in case of emergency) number that is accessible without unlocking the phone? Not 911, but a family member in my contacts?

you can now set up an Emergency Contact in 'Medical ID' in the Healh app. When someone goes to the lock screen and switched to the Emergency call, they can click on the link Medical ID and then contact your emergency person. It also lists your age, allergies, and illnesses if you need it to.

Pavilion G6 2016TX -WiFi is not working but bluetooth is working

Hi,
WiFI on my Pavilion G6-2016TX is not working, but bluetooth is working. I do not know what happened. Screen shot of device manager is attached. In the list i could no find any WiFi devices.Please help me to resolve this problem.

Hello, @vizz007
I see that you're missing the wireless driver from Device Manager. I will try to assist you with this.
Were any changes or updates made prior to this occurring?
Did this just recently occur? If yes, start by doing a system restore.
You can also installing the driver, start with the HP Support Assistant. If this doesn't allow you to install a driver, then you can try from here: HP Pavilion g6-2016tx Notebook PC Drivers.
If you cannot get the driver to install this way, try the HP Recovery Manager. This will allow you install the original factory installed driver.
If that doesn't work, then you may want to test the hardware. This document can help you with that: Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 7, Vista).
Let me know how this goes for you.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

My iphone 4 is out of warranty and its screen has cracked but its completely working WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE TO GET IT FIX ?

PLEASE HELP
my iphone 4 is out of warranty and its screen has cracked but its completely working WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE TO GET IT FIX ?

$99 is the carrier's fully subsidized or discounted price which requires signing a new two year contract with the carrier. Apple's out of warranty or not covered under the warranty "repair" price which pays for an exchange at a significantly reduced price off the full retail sales price has no effect on the existing contract nor requires signing a new contract with the carrier.

I updated my IOS on my iPhone 4S and it locked up. I had to restore my phone and now iTunes will not go past the setup your phone screen even though the phone as been restored. How do I get iTunes to go past this screen so I can sync my phone again?

Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

My laptop speakers are not working but my headphones work fine

I have an HP Pavilion g6-1d73us laptop and although my headphones work properly the speakers do not. This is a recent problem. I have tried troubleshooting with windows troubleshooter with no results. I have checked all the drivers for audio and they check out fine. I have tried driver software with no success. Windows Media Player does not work. I get an error message when I try to use it. What else can I try? Carl

Hello @hifive11,
I have read your post on how your notebook speakers are not working, but the headphones work fine, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
The first step I recommend is to follow this document on No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7). This should help to restore the sound to your speakers.
You can also enable the speakers on your computer as the default playback device. This can be done by following the steps below:
1. Click the Start button
2. Click Control Panel
3. Click on Hardware and Sound (sorting the control panel icons by "category"), and then click on Sound
4. Under Playback, you should see one or two speaker icons. One of them should already have a green checkmark next to it (which will be your notebook's headset device). If the second Speakers icon is not visible, right-click in the list of devices and select Show Disabled Devices
5. A second, disabled icon of "speakers" should appear. Right-click this icon and click Enable
6. Test your speakers
If the issue continues, I recommend returning your notebook to a previous restore point before the speakers stopped working. This can be done by following the steps in this document on Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7).
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

My iphone is stuck on setings screen, not frozen but my lock button is broken

Last night, while trying to clear room to update, it stopped allowing me to go out of the settings app. my home button is not broke, but it didnt work.. My lock button IS broke, and i use the Assistive Touch. It wont allow me to open recieved messages when the pop up on the screen or answer calls.

Without the lcok button you will not be able to reset.
You need to get it repaired.
You can try waiting for the battery to die and see if it boots up normally after charging.
