The screen light on my nokia 5800 doesn't go out w...

Hi all, I am having a nightmare with my phone. I don't recall making any changes to the settings, but when I use the slider button on the side of the phone to lock the phone, the screen light doesn't go out as it has done previously? The result of this is that my battery life if almost half what it was.
Can anyone help me please, I have looked in every setting known to me and consulted the manual but still no solution.
Thanks is advance guys

i dont understand why there are so many issues  with peoples 5800
i have none....ABSOLUTELY NONE!!!!
i know youve said youve done nothing with the settings but can you try
settings.....phone.....phone management....auto keyguard....change that to 1 min
(01:00) or just make sure it isnt some bizarre number......
also try to see if you have a correct setting in "light time-out"
settings.......phone....display........light time-out
make sure no bizzare number is there either.......
hope this helps

    my ipad will not turn on when I plug it up, the screen light will occasionally blink, thank you

    First, make sure that it's fully charged.
    Then, 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 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, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

    When I open my Macbook pro- the screen lights up and then goes black- keybook stays backlite- can not get screen to come back on. Must reboot-
    thoughts-?? Macbook is 6 months old and on second hard drive ( failure after 45 days).

    Hey! exact same thing happens to me... I use the keyboard shortcut to turn off the screen which is ctrl - shift - eject button. Then just poke a key and it wakes up again fine, it doesn't fix the problem but at elast you don't have to reboot. x

    I have upgraded itunes on m computer to 10.5. When I connected my iphone to the computer I was told that ios 5 is ready to be downloaded, and that I should back  up my iphone before doing the download. I did. Now I want to get my iphone back on and it just can't . The screen lights up, i select language and network but it tells me that my phone cannot be activated because the activation service is temporarily unavailable. what do i do?

    Try a Hard Reset.....
    Press and hold the Wake / Sleep button AND the Home button at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears on the screen, it can take 10 or more seconds.  Ignore the swipe to turn off message.

  • When I press to the left of the home button, the screen lights up

    When I press to the left of my home button, the screen lights up as if I were pressing the actual button. This causes Siri to pop up randomly all the time and my phone keeps accidently taking screen shots. Should I take it in?

    I was a little confused when I first read this, but I think I understand what you mean now. The bottom left part of the glass on the front of the iPhone, by the home button, can cause it to act like you're pressing the home button. I do not experience this issue on my iPhone 5. This is probably a small defect in your iPhone. It isn't major, though, I'm  sure if you visit the Genius Bar in your nearest Apple Store, you can get advice from the experts on what to do.

  • The screen lights wont turn on my ipad

    Hi mafiose15,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
    How to restore iPod
    Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
    Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
    After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
    Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
    Click Restore.
    If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
    A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
    Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
    Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
    During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
    Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
    You can find the instructions in this article:

    THE screen light of my I phone 3Gs is not on...it always off from past few days

    Hey Arun1205,
    That definitely sounds frustrating. We'll need to isolate this issue to figure out if it is indeed hardware:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Display has no backlight or dark screen
    - Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    - Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    - While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    - If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • My macbook 3.1 screen goes dark after a period of use; but if i readjust the screen (close it to about a 30 degree angle) the screen light is on again

    my macbook 3.1 screen goes dark after a period of use; but if i readjust the screen (close it to about a 30 degree angle) the screen light is on again.  i don't have an external monitor, so i just deal with it.  i'm about done dealing with it and am wondering if anyone else had/has this problem, and how did you solve it?

    You have a hardware problem. It needs to be fixed.
    Contact Apple using www.apple.com/support/contact if you are in a country that supports it or call the appropriate phone number on this page. Alternatively carry the MacBook in to an Apple retail store or service provider to ask for an estimate.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • Can the C6-01 be set up so the screen lights up wh...

    Hi,
    I've just received a C6-01, and I've noticed when a text is received and the screen doesn't light up as with previous Nokia's I've owned, the notification light simply flashes. When the phone is on silent this is frustrating because i have to keep checking to see if I've got a text by looking at the notification light (which is quite hard to notice as it's quite dim). Are there any solutions/downloads for this, I've looked through the user guides and online and can't find anything.
    Thanks!

    Install "Nokia Sleeping Screen" from the Nokia store app on your phone, it will animate the screen when you have a message making it easy to see.

  • I have a Iphone 5c and the screen light open when I press a button but nothing appears on the screen and I can't do anything

    I have a brand new Iphone 5c since like 2 weeks ans just today this happened, Cell is full charge everything is good i'm using it and then put it in my pocket for about 1hour and when I pick it out it don't work anymore !! the screen doesn't work like it lights up when I press on any button but I can't see nothing the screen stay black and I can't do my code to unlock it or even answer a phone call !!

    You have voiceover on. First try tapping the home button three times fast to turn it off.
    If it is still on the gestures are different. You tap once to choose an item then double tap the item to activate it. Remember everything that was one tap is now tap then double tap. Start with the lock screen. Tap, then double tap your code. Swipe with two fingers to open, if the screen doesn't slide with two fingers try using three.
    Tap then double tap each of the following. Settings> general> accessibility> voiceover > off.
    Good luck.
    Edit. I'm not sure if you need two fingers to slide to unlock. Try with one finger. If that doesn't work try two.
