White screen when pressing home button and getting text

Strange thing, hopefully software bug. I press the home button to check time and all that shows is a white screen. It's not the white screen of death because I can simply press the sleep button and then go straight back to what I was doing, pressing home button, etc. and it's fine. I've even taken a screen shot of it with iPhone. All that appears is my true wallpaper, as if it didn't know it wasn't already showing it. Also, it's very random. I can't reproduce. It's pretty minor as I can quickly getout of it but I want it clean.
I've restored, restored as new, reset, turned on/off, everything I can think of. Any ideas?
I also have the speaker distortion bug many are talking about (blown speaker sound).
I have a genius bar appointment Sunday so I'm curious what they say.

I suggest going through the usual troubleshooting steps:
1. Reset the phone by pressing both home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears (ignore red slider).
2. Setting > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
3. Restore in iTunes using a backup.
4. Restore as a new iPhone
5. Take it to the Genius Bar.

White screen after pressing Home Button

Question here:
When my iPod is already turned on, but in sleep mode, I will press the Home button to use it, but when I do so, the screen comes on, but it is just white. Sometimes, after doing so, I see some black bars, like it's trying to show the lock screen, but then it goes into sleep mode again.
This has just started this week, which is, of course, the first week that it's been really cold here. Is my iPod just reacting to the cold air? I mainly use it inside at work and home, and it's not like either one of those places are igloos. I have noticed that if I keep in my pants pocket for a while, it will display correctly when coming out of sleep mode.
Any other ideas or suggestions appreciated. I don't really want to have keep it in my pocket all winter.

Try restoring it. If that does not work, you could have a battery or logic board acting up.

My iphone's screen goes black and it behaves like that it is switched off.No switches work and the power button also does not respond.The ringtone do not also respond.The only way to switch on the phone is to press home button and power button together.

Pressing the Home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button together until you see the Apple logo and then release is called a reset.
If no change after a reset, the next step is restoring your iPhone.

When i touch the screen makes the home button, and i cant do nothing

i cant do anything in the iphone beacuse i set one button option that transforms the screen into home button , and now is locked and when i touch it do nothing please help

Try plugging it into your computer, going to the apple website, and refurbishing it. Call apple for help and explain your problem to them.

My iphone is stuck on the settings screen but the home button and lock and power buttons wont work. I can navigate through my settings but can't get out of them or turn off my phone.

My iphone is stuck on the settings screen and the home and lock buttons wont work. I can navigate through the settings but canot go home or turn orr or reset my phone. Please help):

I had the same situation with my iPod touch 5th gen. You can manually reboot it thru pressing sleep/wake button and holding it up to 10 secs - no data will be lost.. This didn't work in mine, but to some it did..
If it won't work, you could do what I did which is I reset all settings in the Reset part. It won't lose any data, just the settings (if you have just less settings did to the device, which I had). So just configure or tweak things again in the settings when it reset again.
Hope this somehow helps!

My home button is loose and snappy. When resting my thumb on the home button I can gently slide it around. Also when pressing home buttonit sounds snappy...!?!?!

WHen i rest my thumb on the home button... i can gently slide it around. Also when I press the home buttton it sounds snappy... Similar to when pressing the center of a jar cap after it has been opened. Is this normal? Do I have a defective phone?

The button has multiple functions. Pressing, tapping, reading your finger print,.. If you think it is too loose, visit an apple retail store (with an appointment), and have them look at it. But I think that it should have some play, as to access reachability, you have to touch it twice, while tapping it twice brings up the app switcher.

How can I turn off my iPhone 5S/stop an alarm when the home button and screen are broken?

Touchscreen is not working at all. My home button does not work. I have alarms with snoozes going off with a battery at 100%... It's driving me crazy but I don't really want to reset my phone to factory settings.

You don't. Not without getting it fixed first.

Siri is prompting to unlock Iphone 6 when pressing home button for voice dial of existing contact

Just upgraded me to an IPhone 6. I restored my new phone from recent back up so all contacts, etc. are there. Also updated to latest OS.
If I depress the home button Siri is now prompting me to unlock my IPhone.
Scenario:
Depress Home button to activate Siri
Say "Call Home:"
Siri responds "You'll need unlock your IPhone first"
Unlock IPhone
Siri responds "Just to confirm - you'd like to call home".
I used to be able to just say "Call home" and it would just dial.....no unlock...no confirmation.
What's changed? Is there a setting I need to tweak?
Running iOS 8.1.1
Thanks

Hi teturner,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your new iPhone 6. If you are unable to voice dial from your lock screen, you may want to see if the setting to disable Siri when the phone is locked is enabled, as is noted here:
Prevent access to Siri when iPhone is locked. Go to Settings > Touch ID & Passcode (iPhone models with Touch ID) or Settings > Passcode (other models). You can also disable Siri by turning on restrictions. See Restrictions.

Even though its the 1st window that opens. when i type a website in the search bar it regristers but it just goes to the blank white screen w the new tab phase. i tried to open some of my bookmark sites and still the same thing.. a blank all white page. ive tried re-download the fire fox 6.0 then i deleted my current firefix then re-downloaded it again.. still nothing :(. im currently usaing my interner explore to write this and search the net.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

How can access my iphone 5 when my home button and my lock button are both broken? Can I turn it on with the volume button?

Can I set it up so my screen turns on when I change the volume? Can I use something else? PLEASE HELP ME! I already tried to call apple when my screen cracked and they said that they can't do anything about it without charging me at least 200 dollars.

You can get one for around $50 I think. I know it's expensive, but it's better than paying $200 to Apple.
If you aren't able to get the case, you can turn it on by plugging it in for just a moment to any power source. You can't turn it on using the volume buttons.

What am I to do when the home button and lock button doesn't work on ipod Touch?

On clicking the buttons nothing happens...neither does it lock nor does it go to the home page...the screen is also not timing out....

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.
