Yes, this is normal behavior. When switched on and holding the on switch for some time the device will show a diagnostic info display, just like you encountered.

Screen is white on black want white on black

It is unclear if you are experiencing a hardware problem or have inadvertently changed a screen setting. If a hardware problem, it would be a good idea to repost and to identify the brand, model, and operating system if such applies.

Hello I've got this problem. when my computer running, sometimes my screen go white screen and i can't see at all to the windows, just white screen. but all function is ok so i press power button to...

got this from a friend: Apparently some series of Acer notebook came with BAD_EDID laptop display. The only thing wrong is the checksum which is 9D and should be 1D. Powerstrip 3.76 (registered version) managed automatically to correct EDID.

There is no problem with drivers from 101.x series, but with any newer driver max. resolution is 1024x768 and the picture is in left upper corner of the screen with black bar on the right and smudged taskbar to the bottom of the screen. After installing and restarting resolution is set to 800x600 what results in white screen whit thick black bar slowly appearing on the screen.

T-mobile dash

youll have to reset it. with the phone turned off, press the two soft keys and hold them down. soft keys are the buttons with the lines on them located below the screen. as youre holding down the soft keys, you need to press the power button. it will start to power up then go to a black screen with white writing. press the send key. the phone will reboot.

careful, because this reset will delete all personal data and set everything to manufacturer default....good luck!

Nothing happens on my dash

First make sure your phone is fully charged. Then check...
It may be the storage card - if you take the storage card out it will boot up and you can put it back in. - pain in the a## but it may work. Or Try taking the SIM card out, boot it up, turn it off, replace the card, and turn it on again.
Last resort is a hard reboot. If you did a hard reboot and nothing happened then you did not do it successfully. To do a hard reboot.

- with the phone powered off
- press the two soft keys, yes the left and right soft keys which are the two dash keys labeled - -
- while keeping it pressed, press the power button down
- keep the power button pressed down for 1 - 2 seconds and then release the power button while still holding down the two soft keys. Keep holding down the soft keys until a black screen appears and prompts appear
- now release the soft keys and follow prompts
- if you dont see the black screen with the reset option, pull the battery out, reinsert it and repeat the above steps
- when you see the black screen with the reset option, press the Send button to confirm the reset.
