  • man i droped my ipod 2nd gen in the toilet got the white screen but when it dies out i plug it in to the charger it shows the battery and the green poison logo and it shows he status bar in the bottom but then it goes white? is it my lcd or is it more then that i just want to fix it but not sure to buy a lcd and the touch screen help if you can dude? oh yeah i took it apart already.

  • U have 2 hold tha home n lock button until it turns off or let it die.

  • holding for 10 seconds doesn't even work....

  • This shit is stupid. I have never dropped mine and yet today my ipod touch froze went from black and faded white Can't DFU mode, force restart it or even connect to my computer.

  • @CartickPradeepan let the battery drain and then plug in

  • @bgarcia1996 Did that never worked. But I did fix it by trying 100 times for correct timing. As soon as my ipod got enough battery to boot it went to white screen however if you time it perfectly you can send it the DFU mode right after it turns on.

  • @CartickPradeepan mine is doing that too right know and i haven't even dropped it. I Just clicked on one of my apps to play and it wouldn't load and then turned white and has been that way all day. Did you figure out how to fix it?

  • ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS HOLD DOWN THE LOCK BUTTON AND THE HOME BUTTON FOR 10 SECONDS

  • What if I can still use the screen, but it's white. i try to reset it. What do I do?

  • i got this when i was jailbreaking with redsnow but i want redsnow jailbroken so can u help me??

    

  • FREE SKIP 3:00

  • HOw to fix with ANY APPLE DEVICE!!! Just wait for the thing to die. Once the battery is out it has now choice (the device) but to snap out of it's freeze!!

  • but what,like mha ipod fall down yesturday && then i got it && it had a white screen ? :\ :'(

  • Comment removed

  • Fixed it just let it die and then charge it and turn it on

  • @MntDewMan5 mine still work, i just got the white screen and i tried all these videos. you think i should just play the music until it dies and see if it work ??

  • Wtf my iPod 4g white 8 gig has the same prob and nothing is workin!!!!!

  • Im not even joking, throw it on the floor a few times and it works, the whole push the top and the middle button didn't work so i was really stressing out, so just drop it about 10cm about the ground a few times and it will start to work! :)

  • @rileyisgangsta,@maredphillips­x the problem is that ur battery is kno good...if u have patience then fix it urself but if not send it for repair...one more thing!..leave it for 2-3days of then charge it without forcing it to turn on and hope that helps...

  • same thing with mine. however it works when i hit the power button very quickly. try sliding your finger over it. its still a pain cuz it doesnt work for the home button but it worked for me.

  • my ipod is not even going black when i press the sleep button

    and it does not boot when i hold the sleep and home buttons

    its jst stuck there

    i didnt drop it or nothn

  • @rileyisgangsta i have the same problem , i only got it at christmas and it's been working fine before this. I was trying to load the my horse game and it was loading with the logo to start but then it went and it's stuck on the white screen. Ive tried connecting it to the computer - doesnt work and doesnt even come up on the computer. ive tried pressing the buttons down - doesnt work. Nothings working but if you know something please tell me cuz i rly need to get it fixed

  • hi I have a problem with my youtube app on ipod for some reason it doesn't show all of my subscribers it wouldn't be a big deal except the ones that don't show up are the ones I like watching the most

  • You obviously broke the lcd, the part that displays the picture. it's an easy fix, go to ebay, search for ipod touch lcd 2nd gen, filter results to north america only, find the best match, order it. youtube ipod touch take apart directions, and in 30 minutes ur ipod will be back to new again

  • Mine did the exsact same thing but whenever I drop it like on tile or something it turns back on but then ill turn it off and i get the white screen....its annoying

  • you need wait for ipod battery to drain out and then recharge it and that works. i did have the same white screen and that worked! TRY THAT!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I'm having this exact same problem, is there anyway to fix this without taking my ipod apart?

  • How Do You Get your Ipod On Your Computer Screen?

  • same problem with my sisters ipod touch nano

  • the solution to this is to replace the lcd it is brocken i have the same prob

  • Emilekelly I had an iPhone did that and I still had the problem

  • I just waited till the battery died then charged it and it worked again

  • cant restore my ipod becuz it wont connect to the pc....

  • How'd you connect that to the computer even if it doesn't work the computer works for you

  • same problem. If you dropped it and the white screen came up, just go to easyfix.web44(dot)com and get a new LCD. they do it for you really cheap

  • i have the same problem i tried holding the power button the home button and the volume down button it doesnt work

  • My solution:

    I first restored my ipod

    Then, i clicked the sleep button and the down volume button

    AND BAM it took me straight to the apple logo <3

  • @xtempt4tion 1G don't have volume buttons, but thanks.

  • were you jailbreaking it ? because that probablly happened when jailbreaking

  • That Just happened to my i pod it is probably from pressing the screen so hard. That is what a guy at apple told me. They replaced mine for a brand new one.

  • If holding the powerbutton and stuff dosent work, you have to take it appart and reconnect the wires going from the display to the insides. but this is like a last resort.

  • @wondersquack

    how do u do that?

  • hold the power button and the home button for 10 seconds then the apple symbol will come up

  • omg mine is doin dis too and im soo pissed off!!!! no o dat shit work!!!!

  • hey i have the ipod touch 4th generation but when i try that it still doesnt work

  • if you need help fixing it just hold the home and power button for ten seconds and it should have the apple logo come on with a grey backround but if that doesnt work then hook it up to your computer and restore it. then if that doesnt work you have to go to the apple store and talk to one of the people there..

  • @3692angel man that was scary thnx for tht solutionthought i broke my ipod touch for real while trying to jailbreak it XD

  • Same prob. Ended up being a bad connection between LCD and control board. Replaced LCD and fixed problem. Be sure to try hard reset option first.

  • @MrCrystalMethodist Youve got to hold down the home button and the power buton at the same time for like 10_15 seconds and it will reset _ anyway this worked for mee :) xx

  • dude i have the same problem im not even joking i even sent it to go get it fixed and the people who fixed it put on a new lcd screen and didnt fix the problem

  • i got the same problem too...i even restarted the whole thing like it suppose to be brand new and still its the same..why?????????? helppppppppppppppppppppp

  • Comment removed

  • Guys everytime i do this it jsut restarts and the white screen is still there. Anybody else experiencing thiss issue?

  • @MrIlikewaterbottles

    mines too :/

  • it worked for me

  • This solution worked PERFECTLY! Holding the power (on/off) button on the top while simultaneously holding the menu button worked and came back on in 10 seconds. Thank you very very much!!

  • @GJCANHELP whats simultaneously mean "/

  • @Ashiikax at the same time

  • you have to leave it on until the battery dies (loooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooong time)

  • @MrIpodtouchey It's not s software problem. The LCD screen seems to be disconnected, possibly.

  • I have found another way all i did was turned my ipod off for 1 to 2 days then turned it on and it was all ok

  • whats the name of the program you are using to see your iphone screen on the computer?

  • Yayy i'm so glad this worked. I almost had a heart attack when i saw that white screen come upD:

  • none of this stuff works ! :( mine is all white and i cant fix it

  • got it thanks alot man

  • thanks to everybody who commented on this post. SINCE THIS VIDEO I HAD MY IPOD SWITCHED OUT. THE LADY SAID THAT THE LCD PANEL DETACHED FROM THE CORDS OR SOMTHING OF THAT MATTER BUT I HAVE A NEW ONE AND I LOVE IT. SO HOW BOUT THAT IPOD TOUCH WITH THE CAMERA?

  • i have the same exact problem :/

  • wat is the name of the software that u used? plz tell me

  • mine is doing the same thing its just a white screen that wont turn off. itunes sees it when i plug it in but cant get white screen fixed. HELP!!

  • O my gosh i had the same problem!

    Scared me so much i almost cried ( i had just gotten it)

    But finally i figured it out!

    Hold the home button and the top button at the same time for a long time it should shut down then let it reboust by doing it again

  • I have exact same issue as the original poster changed tried another NEW screen..

    Still that white Screen

    ANY IDEAS?

    Reset doesnt work

  • If pressing the home+sleep butotn simultaneously for 10 seconds doesn't work, that means you're iDevice has a HARDWARE PROBLEM meaning you damaged your device. Hopefully you have warranty or something because you HAVE TO take it back to the store (unless if you're an expert and can crack the device open and fix it). Otherwise, SUXSSS FORRRR UUUUUUUUUUU!!!! jk :D

  • I had that exact thing. Some of your system files must have deleted for some reason. That was my case. What I did was just restore to firmware 4.0. That should work.

  • i got mine off by holding the power and the home button for 10 seconds the turned it on and it was fine

  • i jus did it to mine. u have to hold both buttons at the same time. press them at the same time the screen should go black than jus hit the power button thats it

  • @msqmebby Dude this worked, you are a hero and you rock!

  • guys the white screen of death isnt a software glitch all the time the other thing is you need open the ipod assuming you have the knowledge on how to do it, what you want to do is make sure your ipod is completely turned off then reinsert the lcd cable located at bottom left next to home button now power up and enjoy, this method is 95% guaranteed, if it doesnt work for you then im sorry buy a burrial site for your ipod.

  • @djhumptylb Do you know if i got a new screen from Ebay , would this fix it.

  • @uknokianut sorry but like I said first try to replug in that lcd, but if you think its the lcd itself buy from gadgetfix on ebay think cost like $14.00usd oh and if you break the touch digitizer I think it costs like $17.00usd make sure you get it with the home button built in and that you get a set of ipod openning toolset ok good luck and let me know if it worked for you.

  • Where is this cable?

  • @luvie11uk you first have to open it by removing the top digitizer glass (warning) doing so will void your devixe warranty so do this at your own risk. Once opened look at bottom below the lcd display it looks like a little back square pop it up then reattache it good luck.

  • Here's one way. Just hold down the home button and the sleep/waken button (top left) for like 10 seconds I think, and it should restart. If that doesn't work, you're on your own. I got nothing.

  • press both buttons at the same time untill it turns off then press the top bottom then you should be at the apple

  • I pressed the home nd power bottons nd went to the apple logo then it worked but after if i press the sleep botton it goes back to the white sceen. Any one Can Help?

  • ugh! mee too i hate it!!!

  • man, this happened to my iPhone 3g and i cant get it replaced or fixed cause the warrenty ran out

  • dude u gotta put it in a bag of rice for 1 night, the same ting happend to mine because it got wet and now it works just fiine, rice takes the mositure out of anything

  • Oh yeah I for got if ur in a quiet area u can hear it working like if u unlock it or take pictures

  • I saw this I held both buttons down then the apple icon appeared then it worked:)

  • ok this is all you need to do you hold down the power button and the round button in the middle for about 10 seconds then turn it back on. if this doesn't work than thats because you droped it or something like that and it can not be fixed

  • i think it was LCD problem, or FPC connector for LCD need to replaced..

  • hold down the off button and the home button at the same time..

  • i feel your pain this happened to me today

  • I have the same problem. I hole the two buttons down, and it doesnt fix the problem. I can recieve calls and everything...weird!

  • restore it with itunes, thats what fixed mine

  • @almann1117 what if its so dead itunes dont find it? ó.Ò

  • Well.. the motherboard still works which is why you can get screenshots and "use" it normal. It's just the connection between the screen and motherboard is invalid, and the screen goes white. My brother's iPod did that, after he dropped it into soup, so I'm going to buy a replacement screen.

  • @scaremenga have you bought and replaced the screen? is it worked? thanks

  • My ipod touch 2nd gen. does the samething I dont have a Vnc installed on it, MrJYT do you know if you replace the LCD would that fix it? I'm just wondering if you tried it, replacing the LCD?

  • trust me ive tried and later on it starts again but thnx anyways m8

  • Maybe put it on itunes and restore it, if the restarting didnt work - its probably the ipod itself.

  • WHY DOES THAT HAPPEN????? PLZ TELL ME

  • My ipod did the same things that your one is shown to do..... squeeze(quite hard) the bottom of the ipod, to the right of the home button, i kno it sounds dumb but i wrked for me.... and was probably what people wer inadvertantly doing when there smaked it. :)
