When I move phone from face, screen is still black

I've noticed lately when I am ending a call and go to hang up the screen stays black and I cannot hit end call. I can click the home button and nothing happens. I found if I "shake" it, the screen will appear for a brief second then disappear. It's very frustrating.
Anyone else have this, and if so, whats the resolution?
Thanks

My sister, who has an iPhone, called me complaining about the exact same thing. I saw this post and suggested that maybe it might be the case.
It was. Now she thinks I'm a real genius (not an Apple genius, who suggested she reinstall the software).

How to move apps from one screen to the next?

In order to organize a bit the screens after installing several apps, how can we move them from one screen to the next?
I've found it possible to place them in the lower bar and then replace them into the required screen but that's very slow...
Any other way?
Also, is it possible to place the apps where we want and not get them automatically reorganized (blanks filled)?
Thanks,

Sorry I guess the correct terminology would be 'virtual desktops'.
You pass from one virtual desktop to another swiping left or right on the phone.
I would like to switch conveniently an app (icon) from one virtual desktop to another.

When I move my mac the screen flicker and must be rebooted

Hi , and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
And sorry to report that OSX is more Widows like than ever, but….
If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

TS3274 How do I move icons from one screen to another?

How do I move icons from one screen to another.

Hold down on one icon until they start shaking, then drag the icon to the edge of the screen, and the screen should slide to the next one, you can then drop it on that screen or drag it again to the edge to move to the next screen.
Page 21 of the user guide explains this under Arranging Apps:

When I move pages from one document to another, it creates a new alternate layout.

Hello,
I'm having an issue with combining some documents. Usually I use the "move pages" command and tell the pages to integrate with another document. However, because of the new alternate layout feature, both documents have the default layouts as "Letter V". So when I move pages from one document to the end of another, it creates a new alternate layout labeled "Letter V2" and "Letter V3" etc. Is there a way to make the pages just go into the main layout of Letter V without creating a new alternate layout? How do I merge alternate layouts created in the integrated document? All documents are the same page size and orientation.
Thank you kindly,
Sheena

Petrill,
Thank you. I was trying to do that yesterday, but it was grayed out. It seemed to work alright today.
Thanks,
Sheena

Actually as Roam said, you can keypress, Option + command + 8
But i think wat you asking is that you dont want the screen mving when you move the mouse. Right?
For that you can, goto, System Preference -> Accessibility -> Zoom -> More Options...
Once you click more option, you'll get a window. Look at the bottom of the window for 3 options with bullet buttons. SELECT "ONLY WHEN THE POINTER REACHES AN EDGE" and click "DONE"
Viola!!! You're troubl's are over!!!

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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Restore the device to factory settings and add your content, then try again.
If no change, then something maybe wrong with the iSight camera at the front, so make an appointment with someone at the Genius bare at your local Apple retail store.

The Help page you came here from gives you all the information; without the previous owner's password or his removing the phone from his list of devices you cannot proceed and I'm afraid your phone is useless.

My iphone 5 screen is black but touch works and i can screenshot but screen is still black after restore what should I do?

and i can screenshot but screen is still black after restore what should I do, could it be a loose cable in the phone under the metal shield?

Hello Dopeslayer242,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone. I would be concerned too if I only saw a black screen.
I recommend following steps 2-6 below for an issue like this:
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.
