Same problem, kinda. After 5 minutes of use screen blinked then went full white. Force restart doesnt work. It shuts down to blackscreen or goes on in full white with absolutely no other possibilities… I guess i’ll return it, i’m not a technician and it doesn’t look like there’s something else i can do about it. (Didnt even charge it fully to 100%) I’ve sent a mail to the Apple Team Support. Fingers crossed…
By the way, white screen prevents me even to try a restore from backup on itunes, since i cant even unlock the ipad :-((((
So what’s the permanent fix? These are all temporary solutions which don’t fix the issue once you revert to standard settings.
I am having the same issue. Just read this article. We need to send in a bug report to Apple. Hopefully it will not take to long for a fix.
