What phone/smart device are you using?

[LeaflameSD]

Is it the glass part that cracked, or the actual screen?[/spoiler]

The glass part is broken.

The glass part is broken.

unless its shattered beyond belief, I'm surprised its unusable. My 521 has a cracked digitizer yet it works just fine. I'm using it to type this post, in fact

smartphone cracks are a tricky thing.....you can have a tiny crack and the phone becomes useless, or you can have what happened to me, where the spidercracks are so bad that touching it results in glass shards in your finger, yet the phone still works fine.

also, GT is my iphone, GP is my ipod. GT's screen is fucked up, so I need to buy a replacement, but otherwise he's fine. GP is beginning to have serious whitescreen issues where it seems that she is on her way out. (*sniffle*)



Kriz, Bella, if you're reading this, advice. NOW.

Now?

For a whitescreen on an iPod Nano, turn the hold switch off then hold the menu and center button down together for about 10 seconds. It should show the Apple boot screen and be fixed when it works. Sometimes you'll need to do it more than once, though.

She's already tried that multiple times, so is there some other fix; like maybe if she reflashes the firmware via iTunes?

[Krizonar]

You could always delete everything on it by formatting it and then restoring it, yeah.

[Chocofreak13]

already tried that. restored and synced with Loly. still doing it.


funny thing is, sometimes it'll work, then get the whitescreen, but still be able to play music. sometimes it comes back from that, sometimes it has another seizure.

[Krizonar]

Sounds like it is just sadly on its way out then as it would be a hardware difficulty of some kind.

[Chocofreak13]

*le sigh* I figured, I just didn't want to believe it.

how will I know when it is officially dead? it just won't turn on?


EDIT: hey pent, how much would a nano 5th gen go for at your work? (also, that'd be used, right?)

[Krizonar]

Most likely it would be stuck white.

@Kari: That sucks :[
As for pricing, a 5th gen 16GB will cost $53.99, while an 8GB from the same gen will be $44.99. These being the "scratch & scuff" pricing (They're used, but still guaranteed to work and cheaper than the prettier used ones. For the record, my sister's iPod Classic is a scratch & scuff, but all the wear is on the backside), before sales tax and my discount (Which IDK if my discount works on iPods. I'll ask tomorrow night, but I think it works for everything except gift cards and new consoles)

good to know. I might consider getting a GothPod IV after my birthday.

[DustiiWolf]

I found a lumia 810 with very few bids on ebay, but its blacklisted.

Is it possible to, in the event the device is NOT stolen, have the IEMI unblacklisted or changed? Anyone know?

cool stuff bro. never thought of listing my most used apps.


90% of what I do on my iphone now is games. xD;

in the past, I've also used it for a fitness app, language apps, convention schedules and an alarm clock. other stuff too, such as cute anime boys whispering sweet nothings into my ear.
come to think of it, I should tell sis to download guidebook.
also, I adore shazam and it has greatly impressed me in the past.
