So after installing Core 2.0 and using it for a while i started to get this white screen that would keep on appearing if unless i had the keyboard slightly slid out. So i decided to switch to Faria's Pro ROM Kitchen hoping it would fix it, but it didnt. This screen is really annoying especially when trying to watch movies and when coming out of wakeup and recieving phone calls, as it covers the whole screen not allowing me to see. Is there a way to fix this so this white screen does not keep coming up. I would really appreciate the Help.

Today I used the iGo8 GPS for a little bit just to get onto the freeway. The phone tends to go to sleep, and when that happens, it loses it's GPS signal. Since I was already on the freeway, I know my way around so I just let my phone sleep.
When I got home, I realized the bottom part of the screen, where you can scroll through home, people, messages, etc. is messed up. That part of the screen keeps flashing. AND the GPS screen got burnt into the screen, like how things burn into Plasma Screen TVs when you leave it there for a long time. But it's not a completely burn on, it is like a ghost affect.
I have soft resetted my phone. Doesn't work.
Anyone knows how to fix this problem?
Thanks.
I can post pictures/video if it will help.
Have you tried running igo again and closing it down properly?
Yeah, I closed igo properly. It's not just burnt in the igo screen new. It changes. Now it's the Today page. I can see the "Phone" and "Camera" buttons burnt into the lower part of the screen.
ROM Issue?
What ROM are you using? I always use EnergyROM and its a great ROM but it always does the same thing... i thought my phone was ruined the first time i saw this, but when i flashed to another ROM it all went away, im not sure if certain ROMs use different video drivers or what, but my problem atleast seems to just be with the ROM.
Good Luck!
use a all-black or all-white image(i think all black is betteR) and keep it on to try to reduce the burn it...
ohhh. I am using EnergyRom as well. I will change roms and see what's up.
the all black image seems to be a good idea.
Hi all
Recently started having this issue with my screen - haven't dropped it or anything either. On lighter colored backgrounds there are faint to pretty moderate horizontal lines flickering on the screen. The lines aren't colored or in one specific spot on the screen. It's hard to explain but it is similar to older projection tvs where there are those faint lines(static like) in the background.
I took a screenshot but it doesn't show the lines. I had been using Android Revolution HD 6.1 (great rom btw!!) and I've tried other roms since this began happening (thinking it was the rom) but to no avail. I'm currently running CM7.1.
Things I've tried:
changing roms
turning screen brightness up
turning on automatic brightness
turning down/off various animation settings
turning on light sensor filter in cm7 settings (helps a little)
If anyone can help it'd be greatly appreciated! Thanks for reading!
I would try unrooting, installing ruu from HTC website and see if problem is still there. If it is then you will be back to stock and can claim your warranty. If problem is gone then just reroot. This is a problem I have not read anywhere though so it is probably a hardware malfunction and would need to be warrantied.
Not a bad idea! I'll give it a shot and share the results once complete.
Installed stock RUU - screen lines still present so probably a screen hardware issue. Going to take it into the store tomorrow and see what they can do
I am writing to ask if their is any way to prevent the screen from turning on when a notification is received. I believe this was how android had worked up until this lollipop update. The problem is when i get stuck in a group message that lasts for hours, my screen is turning on constantly, causing my phone to really warm up my pocket, and look my battery. I have tried "no notifications" to lock screen but it still turns the display on. I am running stock lollipop on nexus 5, not rooted. Any suggestions are appreciated!! Thank you.
Ot must be app specific because mine doesn't turn on on notifications
Sent from my Android 5.0 Nexus 5
Screen turns on when I rotate, and also when sliding into my belt clip pouch case

I have similiar problem; ever since Lollipop update my screen turns on when I rotate the phone, or when I slide it into my belt clip pouch case. It then heats up, opens apps, etc and battery drains quickly. So irritating! Never did this before lollipop. Need fix ASAP please!!
These symptoms sound like ambient display but only custom ROMs have this. Odd..
Hi all,
If the question isn't that clear: Is it possible to let the sidepanel light up when you get a message? sms or whatsapp or whatever? only the sidepanel. And this when the mainscreen is off. so the phone is locked.
At this moment the sidepanel doesn't do anything when something is received. I checked all the settings but nothing happens.
Thanks for all the future reply's
When the screen is off, you can rub the Side Panel like a genie lamp and it will show you any missed notifications. But AFAIK, that's about it...

I found an alternate way to accomplish this. It's not exactly what you want but it comes very close imo.
1. Go to your lock screen settings and turn off all information that can be displayed on your lock screen.
2. Turn off all lock screen effects.
3. Choose swipe to unlock.
4. . Select a pitch black wallpaper of your choice and select it as your lock screen wallpaper.
5. Profit! I set my ringer to silent when i am in a meeting at work. When you receive a text message, the orange edge notification panel lights up and goes out in 3 secs. The main display stays completely blacked out, (except for the nav buttons and notification pull down menu) thanks to your black lock screen wallpaper. This much more discrete, compared to having your entire QHD display light up in all its glory, during times when more stealth is required
I too thought this was going the feature of the phone WITHOUT rubbing the edge panel
guess we either have to wait for a rom that does that or Samsung release something for that cuz that would be so SICK!!
I saw the Korean Note Edge screen lights up when receiving text message, so is this feature for some strange reason removed for US versions? Honestly to a certain point I thought this was one of the main reason to using the edge , not waste battery by reading the text message without turn on the entire device.
any updates?
Does anyone know if this will be available soon? Maybe in the lolipop update? Would love this to come out. Thought it was already on it tbh
I almost made a new thread before coming across this thread. Are there any updates on this? I'm running Lollipop now on my Note Edge but it still doesn't appear as if they have included this feature which leaves me a bit dumbfounded since it would seem like the perfect use for this Edge screen. It kinda does it already when you rub it (which takes quite a long time to load) but it would be nice if it would just light up automatically when you get a SMS, email, Whatsapp, missed call etc.
hi,
I own the flip cover from Samsung and with this when I receive a notification or a call I get only the edge screen power on.

Damn, I already have a flip cover from a third party. I didn't like the Samsung one because the edge screen isn't covered at all (mine has a plastic cut out). Nevertheless, they should still make it possible even without the official flip cover since it can easily be a functionality built into the phone, not the cover.

Thanks, I didn't know that but after checking it, it was already ticked. I hardly ever get any SMS, mostly messages through Whatsapp and Line. What I was talking about though isn't even a preview of the messages, just icons like what you would see on the status bar before you pull it down for the notifications. The Information Stream doesn't display notifications from every app even after I select them in the settings (and even then, you'd have to rub the edge for it to appear) and the Briefing Panel also doesn't show every notification I get (I got a few Facebook messages on the Messenger app in my notifications but according to the Briefing Panel, I had no notifications). Of course, it's not a big deal and I still love my Note Edge, but this is the kind of thing that always made me stay away from Samsung in the past. A lot of potentially useful features let down by poor execution.
Go to the play store and find Augmented SmartWatch Pro and Augmented Edge. These two apps (both by the same dev) together do what you're wanting. The main screen DOES still turn on, but it's a blank grey to black gradient (kinda like the background of the quick glance from the Note 3). I'm hoping a later update gives the option to just make it completely black.

Thanks but the Augmented Edge only shows Google Music controls and the Augmented Smartwatch Pro costs $4. I don't know if I'm being a cheap bastard or not but I feel that's unreasonable considering it should've been a basic functionality. But the fact that it still lights up the main screen albeit with a dark grey/black gradient seems to indicate that it's not as easy to code something like this as I had imagined otherwise he would've just turned on the edge screen alone.

Personally I don't mind paying a little bit for a decently coded app that effectively provides a much needed feature, but I know what you mean.
Also, yes the Augmented Edge app by itself doesn't do much. And Augmented Smartwatch Pro doesn't even provide features relevant to non Wear users on its own, but the two work together and I've definitely enjoyed the benefits (I leave my edge on the desk by my bed so if a notification goes off or anything, I just have to turn my head to look. )

thanks for the tips... I enjoyed the 2 apps
I'm glad I could help. On a related note (pun intended of course) for anyone reading this who may be interested ASP and AE (the apps mentioned above) was JUST updated to support an entirely black main screen while displaying edge notifications.
Hey all,
I'm very seasoned with Android, and I LOVE the OnePlus One so far, but there is one issue that is driving me MAD.
Whenever I am on a call, and I lift the phone away from my ear, the notification shade triggers and gets stuck at the top of the screen... No matter where I touch, it snaps to that location. For example; if I am in a call, and I want to add another user to the call, I press the +Call button at the bottom of the screen, but it never triggers, it snaps the notification shade down, and I have to drag it back up before I can use the phone functions. This doesn't happen all the time, but it happened a lot to me today.
My girlfriend was kind enough to help me with a screenshot (she just quietly stayed on the line )
Anyone else experience this? Is there a fix at all? I'm still 100% lock and stock if that matters. I also posted this on the OnePlus One support forums, so if I hear back there first, I will post the solution.
I had the same problem too. Seems like this happens because your ear touches the display, the top part which when touch gives you a peek at the notification showing the date and time, before the proximity sensor can detect.
The solution I found is to get the phone close to your face at an / angle, the top first and then the bottom.
I had the same issue with my HD2 running cyanogen, which has the same feature to peek notification.
Thanks @Sir Awesome!
I'll give this a try later... Sounds a lot like "You're holding it wrong" to me... It's okay that it gives the peek, but it just stays there.
