What should i do if my ipod touch 4 gen. has a white screen and it goes away rarely. Should i return it and get a new one?

If the problem persits after restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod then you likely have a hardware problem.  In that case an appointment at the Genius Bar of an apple store or returing it to Apple is in order.

  • My iPod touch 4th gen has the white screen of death and won't connect to iTunes to restore.

    I was updating from iOS 6 beta 1 to beta 2 when my ipod froze up and started showing the white screen of death. I've tried the trick where you hold the power and home button for ten seconds and tried to put it in DFU mode to restore. None of these tricks work and my screen is still white. Also I plug it into my Windows Vista computer with iTunes 10.6.3 but it wont show up. I really need help. I don't have warranty or money to buy a new one. My grandmother will heartbroken if $200 goes down the drain.

    Im not developer and I have ios 6 click this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHvf6Wty0nk&feature=plcp but anyway try putting it into dfu

  • What do I do if my iPod touch 8g 4g has a white screen after screen replacement ? I tried holding down the volume up button, the power button, and the home button all at the same time but my screen just went black and it wont turn on.

    it just wont turn on after repair on the screen

    If it never worked after the screen replacement then it would appear that you have a hardware problem either caused by the repair or the problem that lead to the screen replacement.

  • IPod touch 3rd gen stuck on white screen and not recognized in iTunes

    So basically I dropped my iTouch in water, removed it and left in a bag of rice for 2 weeks and now the screen is a gray/white colorway and won't show up in iTunes. I've tried doing a hard reset but I can't see if that even works or has done anything. Does anybody have any ideas or solutions for me!?

    Apple doesn't repair it.  If there is no sign of abuse, they replace it with a refurbished unit.  The fixed-price for non-warranty replacements can be found here.

    - Let the battery fully drain. The charge for an hour and see what happens,  Try resetting too:
    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.
    - Connct to computer and restore if it shows in iTunes.
    - You can try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then trying to restore. See:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Also see:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    Frequenly the white scree is due to a hardware problem.

  • My iPod touch is alternating between a white screen and the Apple startup logo. I can't seem to bring it out of that sequence.

    Try:

    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.

    hello, my ipod 5th generation has a broken screen, and also the inner lcd seem to be faulty also, anybody has an idea how much it cost to fix or replace it with apple?

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for a 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5Gs. They do not fix yours.

  • My ipod nano 6th gen has a white screen that states ok to disconnect and it's not connected to the computer

    I listened to my ipod last night.  My son went to get it and it has a white screen that states ok to disconnect (it is not connected to the computer).  It won't let me do anyting to it.  I tried to hook it up to the computer and it changes to do not disconnect and then won't let me eject it - it says sync is done but it says I can't disconnect because files are being used somewhere else.  Then I pulled it out and it goes back to ok to disconnect.
    Hope someone can help me. 

    i sent mine off to craig at [email protected], it was £25.....like new again

  • After updating to iOS 7, iPod touch 5th gen randomly partially blue screened and then restarted.

    I was using my iPod touch 5th generation to listen to a podcast through the podcast app and searching the ebay app for some stuff and three quarters of the screen turned blue and part of the top of the blue part showed alternating colours of between what was on the screen and blue. Then my iPod restarted (and took a long time at that) and then it was just as if my iPod had restarted. Please help. This is first and only time that this has happened and nothing else was open on my iPod.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
