brightness / screen problems

Hi all, I currently have the kind of trouble with the help of my new sansa 8 GB.

First time when I got the stuff out of the box everything was fine, don't remember exactly the version of the firmware, but the device worked well. I've updated the firmware this weekend the last known (so the version before the current new with replay gain blablabla). everything went well 2-3 days before when I turned on it yesterday, I don't have any job of lighting (but I can barely see that display is working. and then from time to time, I have backlight working for 5-10 sec and then leave...

Last night I don't know how I did, but after reset several times (I have not yet counted it...), the backlight is back to normal and the screen seems to work well, except that the brightness setting do not seem to want to work more. I explain to me, regardless of the setting you put for the brightness, the brightness of the screen seems to stay on top, even if the setting is set to low.

For more information the latest forimware does not resolve the issue.

Thank you for your help

-This firmware or hardware related? I have to go back and see my dealer? (he didn't have any other sansa 8 gb in stock at the moment)

OK, end of the story, I just thought that this is indeed a hardware malfunction. Applying pressure anywhere else on the body of sansa just with fingers make the switch and dim backlight.

I'll go see my dealer and ask him to refund/replacement (he had only a 8 GB in stock and all the others were 4 GB...)

  • X 230 screen problem

    Hello

    I just got my second x 230 laptop and problems with the screen. The screen is constantly shimmering and it is much more obvious when the background is dark gray. This is the replacement that I just got and it still has the same problem. On the first trackpad was loose and had the flashing screen problem so I asked a replacement and the same issue of screen and also the battery does not fit in correctly even when I lock both sides it is always a big gap on one side and it is very vague. I m totally disappointed with the Lenovo quality control. but also tired of send them back as I believe that the following will probably be some other problems. What I tried:

    1 - Updated BIOS updated

    2. all the updated video drivers updated

    3. increase of 16 GB ram

    None of them solved the problem. It is also an IPS display.

    I would appreciate an answer if someone had the same problem and managed to fix it somehow.

    Thank you

    ALE

    Change with the increase in brightness? You may be sensitive to slow pulse modulation to control the brightness of the LED backlighting.

    Regarding the flicker with certain model I see as well on my X 220. Even my professional monitor NEC 2090 UXi was the question when slowly turned on but it disappears in a few hours. The reason is fully explained here http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/inversion.php and there is probably no solution for this in the laptop display segment. It is unlikely that you have two boxes with the question that will be just a bad luck, but there could be a lot of poster that shows the issue more than others.

    Another reason could be used to simulate colors 8 bits resolution per channel FRC . X 220 display / X 230 is very likely e - IPS, technology, which is limited to 6 bits only. The particular implementation of the FRC may also present effects of annoying flicker for some combinations of color.

    Sorry, I don't have any good advice. Buying an LCD monitor is always a nightmare for me because there are too many possible questions that would bore me. On the other hand, X 230 is currently the only Lenovo laptop which has a decent view. Other models have TN craps only.

  • IPhone screen problems 5

    I have an iphone 5 with screen problems.  When the phone turns first of all, I can't drag the screen to enter my security code.  The screen is blank.  It will take several times before it stand for a long time, just enter the code.  I also have problems with the original key.  I downloaded the virtual home key, and I'm sure now.  However, when the screen is blank, I use the key home, which does not always, to get it back again.  It's very frustrating.  I'm 1.8 GB for use available, my capacity is 12.5 GB so I don't think that's all. I use the cloud for storage of photos, etc.

    Hello. Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

    • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
    • Press and hold the Home button
    • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

    Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

    If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

    Take a look this Apple Support article: use iTunes to restore the iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.

    As a final step, try recovery mode. Turn off your unit, then plug it to your computer with the hold home button. Hold down Home button until you see the logo of iTunes on the screen of your device. After that on your computer, you should see the iTunes window saying that your device needs to be restored to factory settings. Click Restore.

    If these steps do not work, contact Apple and ask for help.

  • On the Satellite 1800-921 black screen problem

    Hello
    My satellite 1800-921 has started to give me a black screen after I turn it on. It loads well, go to the desktop and then the screen turns white and I can't make it respond. We can just distinguish the dialogs on the screen so I don't know if it is a screen problem or things I see on the screen are just ghosts...
    It's a bit worrying!
    Does anyone else have this problem? So far, it seems to happen when I turn it on. Usually, I have to turn it off and reboot to get it back and then it works very well.
    Thank you
    Nancy :)

    Hello

    to the old series, it may be that the FL inverter is broken or damaged the tupe of backlight. In both cases, you can see the screen but without backlight!

    To differi if it is a hard - or software error, you should start the laptop and ESC immediately to enter the BIOS. Then the machine must be running half an hour in the BIOS. When the rupture occurred it is quite sure that some hardware is broken. Otherwise, it is a software based and a restore with recovery CD Toshiba should solve the problem!

    Goodbye, TOK

  • TouchSmart IQ506 touch screen problem

    Our company has recently obtained a TouchSmart IQ506 with Windows Vista 64 bit and everything works fine. We did a cool, been reformatting in the network and ran all the updates and others. As you may, or may not, know, the IQ506 isn't a VGA port to install a second monitor or to connect to a projector, so that to use the TouchSmart mirroring an image to the projector, we bought 2.0 of StarTech USB to VGA Display Adapter. I installed the drivers and got work and mirroring the image properly, however, now I'm having a problem with the touch screen.

    The touch screen responds when I touch it, but that the pointer is emptied all the way to the right. Mouse follows my pen up and down with me, but it does not come to the left. It's as if the screen is only read the coordinates there where I touch, and coordinates x are blocked all the way to the right.

    The touchscreen was working perfectly fine until I installed the graphics card driver and software for the VGA display adapter to work. The keyboard and the mouse works fine, everything is perfect except for this touch screen problem. I'm 99% sure it's a software problem, and I wanted to know if there is a known issue, or if anyone else has had this kind of problem. I guess this is the software for the VGA graphics card and I was wondering if this is the case, what I can do for the TouchSmart can support a second screen bypassing screen touch, or any other, problems of alternatives.

    Sorry in advance if there is already a topic on this issue, I went thorugh the forums and can't find anything about it.

    RasterBlaster thanks for your comment.

    I wanted to try something before your steps and I seemed to have solved the problem.

    The problem is that the nvidia card driver was not cooperating with startech to the VGA graphic card driver. I uninstalled the nvidia card driver and all this work and am now able to see on both screens.

    I know I'm going to miss some qualities of video, but from now on, everything works and I think it's what is best. I will try to reinstall the graphics driver, but right now, the problem is resolved. Thank you.
