There is nothing wrong with it... the distortion represents some Nvidia fixes that were incorporated into the Tiamat kernel a while ago, so it's actually a good thing.
I flash ROMs to check them out and eventually choose a daily driver, but they often change the boot animation. I don't really care for the one that came with the SGSIII, but there is one that has a blue circle of light that goes around the Samsung logo and then disappears, and then the Samsung logo glows blue while it boots. I have what I thought was that animation, but it's in .qn files or something like that. Where can I get this animation?
So from time to time, more so recently, my phone will sometimes boot up and then not fully finish booting. It works, but is very sluggish. The "Android is starting" animation shows and then disappears. My phone will then seem to have a UI crash. The notification light turns solid blue and it boots back to the ATT logo, then I have to insert my password again. I haven't modified anything on my phone, 100% stock.
One other thing, when all this is happening, apps installed to my EX-SD card are unavailable. Any thoughts?
It is the second time this happened. Last time it fixed itself after half an hour.
The screen is always pitch black and the device stays warm.
Most of the time it is boot looping with a black screen, the 5G led on the back keeps blinking in different colours. When connected to a PC, in Device Manager I can see two "LG-V500N", then it disappears after a minute, and comes back, repeat.
Sometimes the device boots and stay booted with a black screen, I can tell the device is on because it is listed in "adb devices". Unfortunately I don't have any authorized device to connect to it via adb.
I am not sure what I can try, I have pressed and hold power + vol down many times but the screen remains black.
I also have trouble switching off the device, it seems to either stay on or boot loop.
After letting it rest for a few hours, switching it on shows this screen, with a white/gray line at the top of the screen, and after 5 seconds it switches itself off again.

Get into download mode by powering off the phone and pressing volume up while having it plugged into a PC. Then find a guide to flash a kdz lgup. You will probably lose data or have already lost it

It seems the phone will not stay in download mode for more than 5 seconds, it powers off after showing the big download mode screen for 5 seconds.
I will try to leave my phone on the charger for some time and then try again.

I managed to get the device to enter and stay in download mode, however the screen stays pitch black and I am not sure if I should continue flashing.
Would you go ahead and flash it if you were me?
The device is currently on Pie, I will probably try flashing a Pie KDZ first, before an Android 10 KDZ.
Sometimes there is a brief moment where the screen comes on, that's when the LG V50 logo shows before entering download mode.
Did an UPGRADE with V500N11r_00_KT_KR_OP_1017.kdz, which should be the same firmware that the device is already on, it flashed successfully, didn't seem to help, screen remains pitch black.
Did a REFURBISH with the same kdz, didn't seem to help either.
The phone seems to continue to boot loop after the REFURBISH flash. When connected to PC, LG-V500N shows up and then disappears repeatedly. Sometimes I can hear a sound effect being played from the phone, sounds like it has booted and the sound probably came from the initial setup screen.
Seems the phone has stopped boot looping, it is on the initial setup screen. The screen remains pitch black but it responds to touch.
Not sure where I can go from here.
Edited:
The screen has come on briefly once for a few seconds, it is on the initial setup screen. I only had time to switch the language to English, then the screen went black and the device seem to have crashed (no longer makes sound or vibrate as I randomly tap on the screen)

I think it's some faulty hardware at this point. You've tried everything possible as of now.

Hi! I bought an LG V50 and exactly the same things you described happens to me, the screen starts, it shows the logo, but then it goes completely black, but phone starts, sounds are heard and the touch screen work. But not image, screen is black. Could you find out what hardware defect it is? It's the display module, or will it be the motherboard? Thanks
Nope, I have sold the phone as parts.

I got a samsung Note 10 doing this! Took it to local shop! he sprayed some liquid near the proximity sensor area and I saw my phones screen came back to life ;while hiding it he was Telling me if he can repair the screen without changing it he"ll need 20$.. I laughed and told him not interested to repair....
Hi, I just made an account here because someone on Reddit suggested it. I am having an issue with my cheap Samsung phone. It is a J3 Emerge and I have had it for about 3 years now. About 30 minutes ago I was watching a youtube video when suddenly my phone turned itself off randomly without me having pressed the power button. The battery was at about 30 percent. It didn't do the normal turn-off sounds, it was just on, then a black screen, then the boot screen. When my carrier logo pops up it doesn't play a sound, when it normally does. It then stays on my carrier logo screen indefinitely and vibrates a couple of times every 20 seconds or so.
I have tried taking the battery out and putting it back in, and then turning the phone on. It turns on normally, but after the carrier screen, it goes to a teal blue background that I have never seen before that says "Starting Android" at the top, and "starting apps" at the bottom. After about 10 seconds, my home screen comes up. Once my home screen comes up, after about 3-5 seconds it turns off and starts the process mentioned above. I tried booting it into safe mode, and the boot was normal until it got to my carrier screen, made the sound, and then was stuck in the indefinite vibrating loop.
The only other option that I can find is to try to factory reset it. Though I know that we are switching our plan over to T-Mobile very soon, and I'm wondering if I should wait until I go see them for the new sim card to see if maybe they can fix it. I don't want to have to get a new phone if I don't have to. Even though my screen has many cracks, and it can be really slow at times with android 7, I don't mind it.
I'm willing to try just about anything at this point. I'd also be relieved to know if this just isn't something I can fix/is fixable, as at least I wouldn't be in the dark. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask, I will provide as much additional information as I can. Thanks in advance.
