The screen is dark(dim)

I just bought a Miix 2 8 online. I  found it was so difficult boot. it always keep  in a black screen. Finnally i found that the tablet had started indeed, but the screen is dim that I cannot see the loading information clearly. How can i deal with this problem. It drives me crazy!!

Unfortunately, the Miix doesn't provide external/hardware brightness controls, and Windows 8.1 doesn't include baked-in gestures for controlling screen brightness. If the screen is so dim you can barely see the Windows interface, you have a catch-22 in that it's going to be difficult to increase your screen brightness without increased screen brightness.
You can do the following to increase your screen brightness:
Swipe in from the right to display the Charms Bar.
Tap Settings.
At the bottom of the Settings Charm, you should see a Brightness (probably) or Screen button. Tap it and adjust the brightness using the slider that appears.
Once you have the brightness set so you can work comfortably, I would recommend trying the TouchMe Gesture Studio app to assign a little-used gesture for increasing screen brightness.
Hope that's helpful!

  • 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.

    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!!!

  • 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.

  • In the midle of a song the screen gets dark, then suddenly appear the home screen of ipod and the song stops.

    i have updated my ipod 4g to ios 5.0. everything went great, but something is not right cause sometimes in the midle of a song the screen gets dark, then suddenly appear the home screen of ipod and the song stops. help-me, what should i do?

    It occurs with both ripped songs and ITMS songs, but not always the same songs. Just this morning, I had a song skip ahead, then put down the ipod for a few mintues, came back and that same song did not skip ahead at all. I've been on a stretch now of about 20 songs with no skipping whatsoever. Hmmmmmm....
    I've used all the five "R"'s multiple times to no avail. It just seems so random, it frustrates me.
    Thanks for the help, King

    Hi frank at luray,
    Does this issue occur with any file that you try to send, or do you find that it's specific to one file? If it's a file-specific error, and the file is large, please try sending the file via Adobe SendNow. (You can sign in to Adobe SendNow at Sign in or create an account | Adobe SendNow using the same credentials you use to sign in to Adobe Send.)
    Please let us know how it goes.

  • IPhone was in my pocket and my pants got wet...now the screen is very dim

    Hi - I had my iPhone in my jeans pocket and I got soaked. The iPhone had a protective plastic covering on it. Everything seems to be working but the screen is very dim. Can anyone offer any advice or suggestions on how or if this can be fixed?

    Another alternative is silica gel pacs which may be a more effective drying agent. Turn the phone off and leave the phone in a sealed bag with the gel pacs or rice for at least 5 days before tying it again. Never use direct heat such as a hair dryer.

  • Accessing the internet, I can google and get search results but the screen stays dark and doesn't load, accessing the internet, I can google and get search results but the screen stays dark and doesn't load

    what is the problem when the screen goes dark and you cant' access the search items, also i find it strange that I can access you tube but can't access internet thru safari??

    Couple of things you could try : clearing your Safari cache (Settings > Safari > Clear Cache and also try Clear History). You could also try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • 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.

  • TS3694 Trying to update iPhone 5 to latest OS. Now the screen is dark except for the iTunes icon and an icon showing the charger cable pointing to the icon. Bricked out at that point.

    Tried to update iPhone 5 to latest OS. When I looked at the phone a while later, the screen was dark except for the iTunes icon in the middle of the screen and another icon showing the charger cable and an arrow point to the iTunes icon. Now I'm bricked out of the phone. When I hold down the power button after the screen goes completely dark, the Apple logo appears, then the iTunes icon I described.

    Hi Aphthonius,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you only see the "connect to iTunes" screen on your iPhone, this means that the device is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. The information and steps in this article can help further:

  • My Facebook and Safari are now "stuck".  I can't scroll and the screen is darker that normal.

    My Facebook and Safari are both "stuck".  I cant's scroll or open anything plus the screen is dark (not black).  What did I do?

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History). Then try closing the app completely : from the home screen double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it  (and Facebook app if you are using that and not accessing it via Safari), and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
