There is a vertical line on right side of iphone 4, is it a hardware problem?

I recently bought an iphone 4 at at&t a week ago and I noticed there is a straight vertical line on the right side of the screen that is very thin.  However, the line changes different colors going from purpe, red and blue, and it is also clearly noticable on bright backgrounds or when watching videos or viewing photos.  What is causing this, and if it is a tech problem, should at&t just replace it? 
Also, there isn't an Apple store close by anywhere near me.

You have a 1 year warranty.  Take it in to Apple.

  • Green vertical line on right side of my final .mov?

    I've exported a custom sized, 4:3, .mov file via Compressor. The final file has this bright green line running vertically down the right side of the frame.
    Any ideas how to remove it? I've run into this before - seems to happen inconsistently.
    Thanks.

  • Call bar is now vertical on the right side of screen. How do I get it back on the bottom?

    Call bar is now vertical on the right side of screen. How do I get it back on the bottom? I've tried rebooting and changing screens but it won't change. I can't find a setting for that call bar.

        This isn't a native setting that I can find Relsea. Did you download an application that maybe has this function? Any luck if you reboot the phone by pulling out the battery?
    Please let us know what happens next.

  • M1319F MFP printing errors - line on right side of page

    I've had HP LaserJet M1319f MFP about 1.5 yrs.   Last week, it began putting a page-length, thin line on right side of every copy. Line is slanted, about 1/4" from the side, and gradually becoming 1/2" from the side at the bottom of an 8 1/2 x 11 pg.  I ran pre-moistened laser printer cleaning paper through, same line on the cleaning paper.  I cleaned the scanner glass inside.  I removed the brand-new genuine HP laser toner cartridge,I cleaned it, reinserted the cartridge, made a copy, same line appeared on paper.  I removed the cartridge and replaced with a new cartridge.  I made a copy, same thin line appeared on copy.  This happens with copies only, not with scans or printouts.

    There are two vertical lines on my ipod screeen for last 3/4 days..these lines have been increasing slowly..What does this indicate?Any remedies?

    Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod
    if still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How do I get rid of the dotted line on right side of bounding box

    Ever since I upgraded to CS5, I seem to have a broken dotted line along the right side of the bounding box of the png logo that was created for my company.  It wasn't there before. I've gone back to my original back up of the logo and this broken line is in all the versions now.
    Whenever I use the artwork a single dash/dotted line is left on the far right, where the right vertical line of the bounding box would have been. You can see it in the image below on the right.  Its a faint white line but when printed on a banner its stark white.  The line falls just above the last "A" in Alberta.
    I can use Illustrator and Photoshop basics and but have trouble when I get into problems like this.
    Can anyone help me figure out why its there and how to get rid of it?
    I would appreciate any help!
    Thanks.

    Wade and Monica,
    Thanks for your help.
    Wade, it hit me when you asked "why is it a png" file and I realized that I was using the wrong file.  Sometimes its hard to see the forest for the trees!  Problem for banner artwork fixed and I have now used the correct logo file so no more dotted line.
    The dotted line only appears on the the png version of the logo.  There's no coloured background on the logo file.  She gave me the file as both an eps and a png file. I'm pretty sure she created the logo in Illustrator.  I've been using the png file for the website, which is what I thought it worked well for.  And the eps one for my print materials.
    I have no clue why I grabbed the png instead of the eps logo file I usually use, but thanks for pointing out the obvious since I wasted time trying to fix it and was getting very frustrated at what had suddenly gone "wrong".
    I still have that dotted line on the png file of the logo but I'll have to figure that out another day.
    Thanks again!

  • Green line on right side of HD channels

    I have a Sharp Aqious HD TV.  When I am watching an HD channel in "Dot by Dot" mode, a green line appears on the right side of the screen.  If it put the TV in "Stretch" mode, the line goes away, but it also cuts off some of the picture.  Dot by dot mode has the best view with screen picture and clarity, but it has that annoying green line there.  I believe this is a bug with verizon and not my TV.  Has anyone had this problem, or had it fixed by verizon?
    Let me know, thanks.

    This is a known issue with the current version of the HD STB firmware (V1.5 - been that way is SE PA since January ).  There are a couple of "band aids" you can use to get around the problem.
    Use composite (red, green, blue RCA connectors)
    Set the STB resolution to 720p
    Change the color space to RGB (using the STB internal menu).  Note this will produce vertically shifted pixels on the left side of the screen (less annoying than the green line - at least to some)
    Like I said, not fixes but work arounds until Verizon updates the STB firmware in your area.

  • Strange vertical bar at right side of screen.

    Booted up in the afternoon after everything being normal in the morning. The logo and loading wheel were slightly to the left on start up and when I went to enter my password, there was a faint line down the right hand side of the screen (about 1.5" in) and the image seems to blur horizontally from there. When I got into my desktop, the toolbar had also been pushed off the bottom of the screen. The touchscreen of the blurry section still works. 
    No idea how it happened (as I said, it was fine when I left) and hoping it can be fixed!
    Thanks!

    Hi there
    If you like you can do a System restore to a previously known good state.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=in&lc=en&docname=c03327545
    Alternatively try uninstalling current graphic driver from Display adapters section in Device Manager & reinstalling the latest Graphic driver from your HP support page.
    Then restart the system, check.

  • Why is there a thin vertical line on the copy when I use the feeder?

    There is a thin vertical line on copies when I use the feeder but not when I copy from the glass. The copier is new. Any ideas?

    Hi Ccorning, When a vertical line (top to bottom) is produced only when using the feeder (ADF) of your laser product, the issue would actually be due to a small mark or debris on the scanning glass area that sits directly under the left panel cover of the ADF.  This occurs because as the paper feeds through the ADF and across the scanning area, every inch of the paper passes over the small mark which gets picked up by the scanner.  This then produces what looks like a line.  However, thorough cleaning can resolve the issue. You can clean the platen glass and the underside of the ADF by following the procedure below. 1.  Turn OFF the Main Power Switch and disconnect the power cord. 2.  Open the ADF. 3.  Clean the ADF scanning area on the left side of the platen glass and the same area on the lid (the area that would touch the scanning area when the lid is down) with a cloth dampened with water.  You will want to carefully and fully clean the glass in the ADF scanning area.  Look for scratches, tiny spots and marks of any sort.  If marks are noticed, you may have to clean the platen glass up to three times or more depending on what created the mark (i.e.. correction fluid, pen ink).  You can use a soft lint free cloth either dry, with glass cleaner or water to clean the glass and may have to scrub until it squeaks to remove certain types of marks.  NOTE: Please spray the cloth with the cleaning solution and not the glass.  Another way to ensure the mark is removed is to use a credit card by placing in on a angle and sliding it across the glass in one direction.  The plastic of the card will not scratch the glass.  You can then lift the credit card when reaching the end of the glass and return to the other side to slide it across again.  Then wipe the area with a soft, dry cloth. 4.  Close the ADF. 5.  Reconnect the power cord and turn ON the Main Power Switch. Caution:  Be careful not to get your fingers caught. After cleaning the glass, run 4-5 blank/clean pages through to test it.  If the thin black line still appears, please try cleaning the scanning area again as a mark on the glass is the only cause for this.  If the issue persists, there may be a scratch in the glass which would require service. If further assistance is needed, please feel free to Contact Us.

  • Red vertical line on left side of iPhone4 screen.

    I have a thin, red vertical line on the left side of my iPhone screen that appears on a black or dark background.  Anyone know what causes this and should I send my phone in for repair?  I've had this phone for about 3 months.  Thanks!

    Hi Brent,
    I took it to apple service center. They did some checks and found out that the display has gone bad and they replced it with new one.
    Did you try connecting other display (may be Apple Display or Dell monitor) using an adapter?  In my case the Apple service center people tried doing it and the display was appearing just fine without any green line. So the fault was in my MBP display.

  • There are coloured vertical lines on my iMac screen?

    So, I was browsing Safari using my iMac the other day (as I always do), when my computer froze and I had to force shut down. Upon starting back up, I noticed that 1. there were coloured diagonal lines on my iMac screen, and 2. that my mac would not boot up unless I booted it using safe mode. I haven't had an issue with this iMac until now, so I am kind of concerned...
    I know that this is not an issue with damage to the iMac screen because, well, when I took a screenshot using shift + command + 4, the coloured lines were still there!
    So, I'm just wondering if anyone knows what the cause of this issue could be? I'm wondering if it is linked to Safari (because when I open a new tab, Safari slows down massively and my top sites selection keeps appearing and disappearing rapidly. Does anyone know what is causing this issue and how I could solve it. I hope its nothign expensive like replacing the motherboard...

    Yes, it does require some disassembly. Namely, removing the glass, screen and the GPU component. Total war could probably develop temperatures too high.
    I don't know how familiar you are with reflowing. This is only a crash introduction, to get an idea what reflowing might include (i.e. not a detailed procedure)...
    Reflowing theory to give you some background. Here and here in more detail.
    To get familiar with iMac (only steps 1 through 9 apply). After that, GPU component can be taken out, and from that point on, the work is done on the GPU component.
    GPU component is then disassembled in 3 key parts. The heatsink, the reinforcement, and the video card itself.
    The video card and the heat sink are then cleaned carefully using alcohol from any residue of thermal compound. Any paper stickers must be peeled off, too.
    Reflowing. Videos to get an idea how it is done. Here and here.
    New thermal compound is applied.
    Assembly.
    It is a risky approach, especially if you are not comfortable with disassembling your iMac. In that case I would suggest you do not do that at all. Still, even then, I hoped it could give some clue to the issue and you might get someone to do it for you.
    Cheers

  • Right side of iPhone 4S not working properly

    The right side of my screen started getting a little bit weird just a few weeks ago. At first I ignored it because it just starts working again randomly, but now it just happening more often, and now I think this time it won't go away, the problem is that the right side of my screen doesn't respond to touches, sometimes it responds but I have to touch harder and multiple times, and most of the time when I'm typing something it presses search when I try to backspace or reach a word near search. Also I noticed that the right side responds to touches without me touching it, I just put my finger over the music app for example, and sometimes it opens, from just putting my finger near the app, I don't touch the screen, it's like it has a super sensor or something, and sometimes it responds to touches on the top right corner by touching the area next to speaker, not the actual screen, and again, it does that whenever it feels like doing that, but the right side has been unresponsive almost all day today, the only way to open apps is by tapping harder, most of the time it doesn't respond, and it detects touches in some places from 2 or 3 cm away, this is all just with the right side of my screen and I have tried putting phone in DFU mode, and respringing, but non of that works and I don't wanna restore as I will lose fw 5.1.1 ( I don't like iOS 6), so my question is, would this be a software problem, or should I take phone to a nearby apple store for them to check it, it's still under warranty, the phone is in perfect condition, no scratches or anything, I've always had a case with it, the problem is not the case since it does the same without the case, if there is something wrong with it, I'd like a repair, but I can also have a new phone as long as it's free and I can get all my apps back.

    Also, one of the main reasons of why  I think it might just be a software bug is because just now it started working randomly again for like 1-3  min, it works fluently, like nothing is wrong with screen, it responds just in time, everything works perfectly, and then it goes back to its old unresponsive state, registering touches from a distance etc...

  • Right side of iPhone touch screen not responding

    PLEASE HELP!
    New to the forums.. and new to the problem my iPhone 3G is giving me. As of today, the right side of my touch screen isn't responding. The top right side responds sometimes but the bottom right doesn't.
    I've turned my phone on and off, but it hasn't helped. I don't know what to do. I got my iPhone in August 2008. Please - can anyone help?

    You could reset by holding home and the power button until you see the apple logo, do not let go of either until you see the apple logo. This is basically a restart. Or you could restore through itunes. I doubt either will work, but they are worth a try. By going to an apple store or authorized seller they can determine if the phone needs replaced because of a hardware issue.
