|
|
| Half my iPod is blank. I have an iPod nano, first generation, black, and I have screen protector, and a case around the whole iPod. But now, when I turn it on, the bottom half of the screen is white/blank and I can only see the top. Did I blow a fuse somehow? Break the LCD? Do I have to get a new iPod now?

| Pixels are dead, you probably wet it with some liquid and now it can't view.

Bring it to the store you bought it from, and ask them to fix it.

That place is a rip off, I went there to repair my second generation Ipod
Nano (the one with the bigger screen), and they offered me a price of
$190. I can get a new one with that money.

get some insurance for it, make sure it covers everything
wait a few weeks after insurance is sorted then tell them it's fucked
probably will work out cheaper than paying someone to repair it and you might even get a brand new 1
