hi, constant problem here.
Anytime I adjust my today screen plugins (selecting, deselecting, removing) and I close the Today Settings window, I return to a scrambled up Today screen.
sometimes my plugins appear overlapping, sometimes they are all gone but for an empty gray window about a quarter of the screen in height. Sometimes they are gone, but the bottom of the screen is never cleared from windows I open.
Second Today works perfectly.
Any ideas what's wrong?
I have to soft reset, and often do a backup restore to return to normal, sometimes this takes an hour.
Help, please?
worse!
Now even soft reset doesn't help!!!!
This just happened like 45min-1hr ago. I was getting everything cleaned up before i got off of work and i was texting someone and my phone froze, so i soft resetted. it turned back on then it froze again so i once again soft resetted then i put it back in my pocket. i heard the sound the phone plays whenever it turns on and was like okay it's back on everything will be fine. i took it out and the screen is black. i thought it was on sleep mode or w/e but it wasnt. i took out my battery and put it back in and turned it on but the screen is once again black. anyone know how to fix it? i think my screen is broken
i have a touch pro also.
Possibly not the answer you want but have you tried hard-resetting the device? OK it wiped everything but at least you might get a working device from it. Had to do it once on my Trinity, it locked up on receiveing an SMS and a soft reset wouldn't complete, hard reset cured it.
just a regular hard reset? vol down center button. my cousin came over and said it mighta been my backlight? just tried turning it on again and it's real dim but i can barely see the screen.
I was thinking a regular hard reset, but as you have some display, albeit very dull have you checked the backlight hasn't got itself turned all the way down?

how would i check if the backlight is all the way down?
Go into the backlight settings and see where the sliders are.
tricky i know when the screen is very dull, but it might be possible.
that's not probable. minimal backlight doesn't mean black screen.. unless it's a device i'm completely unfamiliar with... tho it is still unprobable.
as deedee suggested, i'd hard-reset
I'm having the same problem, did you find a fix?
i downloaded the Device Reset -Ranster which is the red button on the phone which does a soft reset but for some reason my screen somtimes goes black but the keypad buttons are lighting and i have to take out the battery i have been searching for the shortcut buttons that do the soft reset without taking out the battery and cant find it??
Please someone let me know what those two buttons are, thank you
Have a look at the bookmarks in my signature - look at the HD2 cabs thread. There's a cab on that thread called TouchX reset & wifi. It gives you both a reset button and a wifi toggle.
Or use xda shutdown its realy good.

I had this issue before. Check whether the below setting is enabled.
Start > Settings > Menu > All Settings > Today > Items
The setting "Today timeout", at the bottom left hand corner,
should not be selected/enabled.
thanks a lot Zentury that hit the spot it was on time out every 2 hours which was crap lol thanks for your help guys
del post! hum..mmm!

Man...people aren't learning to read before replying...
my screen last night went blank except for the top and the bottom, I am on a stock rom with a bunch of programs installed. the programs have been on it for a while so it worked fine before.
I was roaming last night and tried to go online and it seemed to freeze, and when i mean freeze i mean freeze. it totally shut down and i could not get it to turn back on without a soft reset. when i soft reset it the screen was toatlly blank and it seems that touch flo aint working, I have to hit the start button at the top and a drop down list of programs (like with my old mogul) would drop down. I dont remember what version of windows that is.
trying to remove programs doesnt workeither.
Hope you got your files and contacts backed up...sounds like hard reset will be the only option for you...
is touch flo checked under settings-today-items
yeah it was checked, and i did a hard reset, I keep everything backed up all the time so im cool. just hate hard resetting.
might think about flashing a coustom rom, i just have to find a real good one, any ideas?
Hi all
Just wondered if anyone else has had a BSOD?
Brand new out the box, my Z5 connected and Google instantly downloaded my apps and contacts associated with my account from previous phone (Sammy Galaxy S4). This was OK, but it took a while and was about 70 apps. I rebooted after it was all done, of course, but occasionally I get this damn Black screen where everything is unresponsive (can't upload screenshot yet)
The only way to wake the phone up from this dark coma is to either reboot or switch user to guest then switch back again. Nothing else seems to work. Its probably one little app incompatibility but don't know how I'm going to find it except uninstalling 1 app at a time and testing the phone to see if it reoccurs. Could take ages to figure out.
Anyone suffering from this?
YES
Finally! Someone who seemingly has the same issue as I do!
It seems to happen most often when I hit the home button from snapchat, or some other camera app, but not always. Other details about my issue:
Screen goes black, but is clearly on. Status bar can still be dragged down, notifications can be pressed but do not respond. They can be dismissed.
Home screen, back, and recent apps buttons still respond, but do not do anything EXCEPT once in a while I can get it to go to just my background... no apps, icons, or anything else. At this point, the recent apps button disappears.
Prior to getting the black screen, my phone will not lock. It will turn off the screen when I press the power button, but when I press it again it is already unlocked.
Not sure what's up, or what I can do! Rebooting the phone helps for a little while, but I get it usually once or twice a day. It seems like it happens more on weekends, but that could just be confirmation bias since I used it more.
:crying:
Hmmm...
for me it doesn't seem to be triggered by anything - it just happens. (I don't have snapchat installed)
I've uploaded the screenshot as my profile image, so you can see the back triangle is the only thing that is not blacked out, that and the very top (battery/clock,signal, etc). If I tap the screen bottom right where the square is instead of seeing a list of recent apps the screen will flicker as if the list is scrolling up the screen but it all stays dark. I'm thinking of factory reset then reinstall everything. A PIA but as I have unlimited data it's no biggy.
Thanks for replying, Vargasm, and good luck with solving it. If you find anything out post back!
I have the same issue on my Z5 premium. There is no solution except reboot it. T^T
i have the same problem here. Phone is only a week old and totally stock. Have heard it may be due to a screen protector if you use one. I am loathe to remove mine though.
