Hello everyone,
First of all thank you to all the dedicated developers here! I am not technical enough to contribute...
I have a P3450 which I upgraded to WM 6.5 - the same problems with screen freezes and system crashes still exists after the upgrade, so the device is more or less not usable (every reboot takes at least 10 attempts). Therefore, I wanted to turn this into a android and installed Wing-Linux 0.4.2 per the guides on this board.
I now encounter a different problem. The screen starts flickering every now and then. This can only be resolved by a reboot. With the reboot issues mentioned above, this is also not a good option yet.
I was wondering if I need to define a different video/display mode in the default.txt to resolve this. Can anyone help? Has anyone encountered the same problems?
Thanks!!

When turning my phone into sleep/standby mode, the screen goes black and stays black. The phone does not react to any interaction.
In use:
Htc touch diamond
FRX06 newest kernel and rootfs
Possible kernel issue
This is a widely known and relative issue with TP, to include other devices. We are currently in a testing phase to try out different and older kernel packages; in order to find out when it was working and when it stopped.
ok i fixed it by faking battery charging, but i have some more problems.
In sleep-mode the backlight is still on and i guess this drains my battery.
Any workaround ?
None yet. To my knowledge, there is talks of fixing the issue but nothing new to report yet. From what I understand the issue is that full panel collapse is being prevented because of a possible fix for rhods. The devs along with a few raph testers are currently attempting to figure out when this happened and trying to fix this but it is a slow process.
hi,
I'm not sure when exactly this issue started on my phone, but I updated my touch pro with the chevron updater and have quite a lot of apps installed.
after several seconds workling with the phone, the touch screen stops working while the phone acts perfectly normal. I can use the keyboard and tilt the phone but I cannot use the touch screen anymore.
By turning the phone off and on it works again.
has anyone experienced a behavior like this?
I noticed my touchscreen becoming unresponsive when loading particular websites. Even had it freeze once (only time it ever froze on me)
What were you doing when it does this? Do you have the multitasking reg edit on?

I know this is an old thread but this is the only reference to the exact same problem that I'm having. I'm having difficulty putting this down to hardware as the screen becomes responsive again when locking and unlocking which might point to software.
It could be a hardware issue that is resolved by locking then unlocking the phone but I don't know enough about the construction of it to have an opinion.
The advice I've had from htc is to wipe the 'phone and start again but I don't expect that to solve it (especially as their call handling system refers to Window Mobile 7 - the second large commercial organisation I've seen that on in recent weeks without looking too hard!).
Has anyone else seen this since the original post or @exilkubaner was a solution found to your problem?
Hi,
I have exactly the same problem. I hard reset my HTC 7 Pro, but no success, my screen doesn't respond until i lock/unlock the device.
So, any one have resolved this issue since the first post ?
Regards
Had the same issue, but I didn't have any roms installed.
Brought it in to Sprint and they found that I had a fried ribbon connecting the screen to the phone. Replaced under warranty.
It happened again, I determined that it was caused by my click in belt clip/holster. When I pull the phone out, it pulls the screen away from the keyboard a bit.
^Wow. Nice find. I'll have to be careful with mine now as I could easily run in to the same problem pulling it out like that.
Hello everyone,
I've been having quite an interesting issue on my NS4G. I'm currently running the latest available CM7 nightlies/gapps, as well with Pete Alfonso's kernel. The underlying system in the phone (radio/etc) is all running the current latest available from Sprint as well.
Now the issue in question, I've been having an issue that seems to be occurring more and more frequently on my phone. Now because I am already running a custom ROM and not just stock, this makes me unsure if the issue is coming from the software, or if there is an actual hardware issue with my phone.
Occasionally (I would say as infrequently as once every 2 days or so) when I unlock my phone with the power button, for a split second after the CRT animation I see my phones screen as all green (with a hint of purple), almost the color you associate artifacting with. Now I am not overclocked, but I am running this custom kernel. But the thing is, I'm not 100% on this, but If I remember correctly I do remember seeing this issue on other kernels as well before (I've been running Pete's for some time now).
I also occasionally experience issues with lets say finishing up a phone call, and my phone may lock up with that green screen w/ purple, and then CM7 will automatically reboot the phone for me. I've also experienced my phone rebooting into "Safe Mode".
Essentially what I am wondering is if anyone can shed some light, are these just software bugs that I am running into that other users are experiencing as well, or is this an issue with my phone?
Thanks everyone!

go to the main settings, cyanogenmod settings, display.. turn on the screen off animation. then go back to cyanogenmod settings, lockscreen, delay and timeout, turn both screen timeout delay and screen turned off delay to immediately. that should fix the green screen.
Hello people,
I have been experiencing a weird issue lately with my OPO. It seems that for no apparent reason, my accelerometer's X-axis gets stuck in 0.000m/s² value, resulting in the inability to rotate the screen to landscape mode. And, again for no apparent reason, it starts working correctly... until the time it breaks again!
It's really crazy. Last night for example it was broken, I was browsing xda from chrome just to find a possible solution, and suddenly it started working, device just turned from portrait to landscape! When I woke up it was not working again. Sometime around the afternoon it started working again -without me doing anything-, not even handling the phone, it was flat on my desk! After 8 hours of working, it got stuck again right as I was writing this post...
Even when it's stuck however, If I try to shake the device very hard (to the point that it almost flies off my hands) I get a very small reading, around ~0,050m/s² to ~0.200m/s².
(readings were taken with Sensors app)
A reboot does not fix this. I have tried lots of configurations, it's not app/xposed related since it also happens after a full wipe and after flashing the 44S fastboot image. It's not kernel related (I think...) since it happens both with Stock and Franco. So it's either hardware, or related to the ROM.
I believe (and really hope) it's not hardware related since it started a while after flashing 44S, before that the accelerometer worked flawlessly. Also, I may be ignorant here, but if it was hardware it would break down once and for all, it wouldn't work intermittently, right? Either way, the device of course was never dropped or hit so as to damage the sensor in any way.
I've also read one report of the exact same problem on the OPO forum, but could not contact the poster, and several other reports of the accelerometer breaking down (and later being fixed) but in CM nightlies.
I have already tried to calibrate/reset through several apps but without any success. Is there anything else I can try to, erm, "un-stick" it? Maybe there's a configuration file I need to delete or something or a specific way to reset/calibrate it in CM. Or even tapping the device in a specific place? (lol I'm reaching here, but I can't think of anything else).
I have already reported the issue to Jira, if someone is experiencing the same please provide your input here.
Hello everybody,
I've got a problem with a Oneplus One.
First a brief history of the device. I got it on ebay with a shattered display about 1 1/2 years ago and replaced the display. Since then my girlfriend managed to shatter the display 3 times more. So I'm quite used to replace the display on this device.
Since the last display replacement (the 4th) the device developed a partial Screen-of-Death problematic.
Sometimes the display just stays blank, while the backlight is clearly working (you can see the blueish light in dark environments). Also the device reacts to touch and button inputs, like e.g. double-tap-power to start camera. Or double-tap-screen to wake up (you can feel the vibration or display input sounds).
I "just" have to wait about 10-20 seconds, try again and the display turns on without any problems. In other cases I have to try this a couple of times to wake the screen.
A hard reset is not necessary, the device will wake up sooner or later. In this aspect it differs from all SoD descriptions I found online!
An other strange thing is, after the screen replacement the device forgot all wifi networks. The wpa_supplicant.conf was empty. Strangely enough all other apps were OK, I didn't noticed any irregular acting applications.
As the device was sill running on CM13 I decided to give it a fresh nougat installation and assumed the SoD symptomatic would vanish.
Now after flashing back and forth different factory images and custom-rom's the SoD is still there and renders the device almost unusable.
I tried the latest CM13 snapshot and sultans CM13, which I have been using on another OPO without problems for a long time.
I also tried to install different original factory images.
cm-13.1.2-ZNH2KAS3P0-bacon-signed-fastboot_64GB.zip
and also another one I got long time ago from Oneplus to fix an annoying Wifi-Reboot-Problem. It contained additional image files like persist.img and reserve4.img.
I tried to turn on and off the setting for the proximity sensor that could interfere with the activation of the screen.
I tried different radio firmware's, as I could remember that there had been some problems in the past with incompatible firmwares, android versions and the proximity sensor.
I enabled and disabled all off-screen-gestures, although they are always working regardless if the display stays blank or not.
Unfortunately I've got no luck.
Literally every single android version I tried suffered from SoD. The only problem free thing is TWRP. Running the latest 3.1.1-0 I never got a blank/black screen on powering up the display.
So now I'm out of ideas and would be happy to hear any additional guesses to fix this problem.
I was also wondering if anybody knows more about the SoD. I couldn't find any information's regarding the causes of this problem. Is it hardware related or software?
thanks!
p.s. another strange thing I noticed now on the latest Slim7 rom (20170526). If I try to take a screenshot with power+vol-down, the screenshot animation happens. But a status bar notification from Android-System tells me, there is not enough free space to save the screenshot. But there is at least 40GB of free space.
I'm not sure if this is related to my problem or just to Slim7. And I'm also a little tired to reflash the device just to test this issue...
Maybe there is a problem with permissions or the flash memory?
p.p.s here a logcat. I couldn't find anything helpful.. https://pastebin.com/UWfwc1VX
Hello,
can anybody recommend an alternative kernel (for SLIM 7 rom), that allows me to increase the minimum CPU frequency.
I remember by doing that on a HP touchpad, I could avoid SoD.
Thanks!

Only this kernel is fully compatible with AOSP-based roms like Slim7.

I've had this issue before,it is due to faulty display only.I changed the display and it started working normal.
