[Q] Trouble with screen - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello, I've been running MOAR 6.1 for few days and since yesturday when i tried to shut the screen to off mode the screen won't close and the power off reboot screen appears, it also turns on and off few times on it's own and it interrups with the popup of power off reboot screen continously, i thought maybe it was the rom so i changed to different rom but it wasn't the rom. i'm kinda puzzled and i just can't get this problem solved. anyone with similar issues or someone who knows what this issue is please help.. it's driving me crazy everytime i try to use the phone.

Weirdest display issue

Hey guys,
I have a really strange display issue with my Galaxy R.
I'm on CM10.1 nightly and already tried different nightlies with factory reset and wipe data/cache.
If the phone is not used for a while (sometimes even after 30 minutes), meaning it is on and screen is off, the display won't turn on anymore.
So I press the power button and the capacitive buttons light up, but the screen stays completely black.
Today I noticed that I can even use the touch screen and I could hear all sounds, I even managed to open the dialer and start typing blindly and it would make the dial sounds.
But whatever I try, the screen won't turn on.
Also, it seems when I'm connected to a charger and/or connected to wifi, this problem doesn't seem to occur.
Then I have no choice but to remove the battery, but then often I can't even start the phone.
Sometimes it takes some minutes, sometimes a really long time until I can start it again.
Usually the battery isn't drained, this only happened once.
This occurs after I dropped the phone twice, so it might be related to that.
(Though before I've also dropped it and this never happened.)
Any ideas?
flash stock ics and see if problem persists.
once i flashed a custom rom and faced this issue, reverted to stock and now my device is running with zero issues.

I tried to find the stock rom online, but all links seem to be down.
Do you know where I can get it?

You need to register and then download from here.
Thanks for that, I installed newest stock rom.
Could boot fine, set up the phone, put it to the side.
One hour later I checked it - same problem again.
Capacitive buttons flaring up, screen not.

Then you should visit SSC. They can only repair your device.

[Q] s5 screen goes black but buttons are lit when hitting power button

While the phone is powered on, randomly the screen will not turn on for me. This has been happening for at least a week yet the only thing I can really recall doing with it is turning off some default apps recommended in another thread here. sometimes the screen goes completely gray as well.
anyone else having this problem? Ive been taking the battery out to resolve it thus far. I'm rooted with 4.4.2 installed (no roms)

Nexus 5 Keeps restarting

Hey guys,
I've found others complaining about the same issues but no resolutions. My phone constantly restarts itself after updating to 5.0
Attached is a video of my phone constantly looping: never mind I can't attach the link because i'm a new user. If you search nexus 5 keeps restarting on youtube you'll see it
Someone posted a trick where if you constantly tap the power button it'll turn on. It works for me, but it only delays the restarts, as soon I stop it turns off. I seriously need some help this is getting out of control. I've tried booting it in safe mode and no luck either, it still restarts itself. I've restored the phone as well, no luck. Hoping for a magic trick or something.

How did you solve this problem ? i have the same problem.
Sounds like the power button is stuck. It is not a software issue.
I had the exact problem yesterday. I fixed it by pressing the power button a bit harder than normal (you may have to disassemble the device as I did), and the button works normally again.

Galaxy S6 screen flickering

Greetings.
I've recently been struggling with a problem with my Galaxy S6 and I've searched far and wide on the interwebs for a solution, with no avail.
You see, whenever I turn my phone on, or wake it up from the lock screen, the screen flickers one or two times, but doesn't always turn on.
They keys are active, touchscreen is active, but no image.
Sometimes I have to try and unlock my screen two or three times to get an image, sometimes it turns on after the first flicker.
An example of what I am experiencing is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyiDgpUSkaE
[edit] Another example is this: when switching the display brightness, the screen goes to crap and starts flickering like crazy, and at minimum brightness text goes unreadable and small (video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIMFaCy_KVY
I am not rooted, everything is stock FW, I had android 6 stock and recently upgraded to 7 stock OTA and the same issue persists.
I cannot access download mode or recovery because the screen won't turn on. Only time it turns on is when Android is booted. Even when booting, the blue led flashes because the device is booting but I have no image.
Please contribute with some ideas, I cannot wipe cache from recovery because I can't see anything even if I try to boot recovery (or download).
Thank you in advance!
Did you resolve this issue? If so, how? Mine started to do the same after a short fall. My initial thought was hardware but I can get into recovery and the screen functions just fine there.

Xiaomi Mi5 facing sleep of death issues. Please help!

My Mi5 is facing a weird issue. Have jotted down all details below. Has anyone else faced this issue? What is the fix? Please help!
1. The phone works fine as long as the screen is on. It does not hang or face any issues.
2. After locking the phone, the screen does not come on (this happens sometimes not always). It always happens when I leave the phone un-touched for a while. The phone remains on (I can hear the lock sounds, phone ringing and also see the keypad lights) however the screen does not come on. I need to wait for a long time for it to work after multiple presses of the unlock button or I need to restart the phone.
3. I do not think it is a screen issue because it works when on. I think it is the 'sleep of death' issue.
4. I have reset the phone. I have re-loaded the global MiUI 8 ROM and also tried loading the developer rom. I have not rooted the phone so far. Happy to do it if needed.
5. The issue does not happen if I have the music player on and lock the screen. It tends to happen only when the phone goes totally to sleep with no applications using it in the background.
Please let me know what I can do to fix the issue.
Thanks.
