Black lines on screen

Hello
Today I had a very bad accident with my LG G2 smatphone.
I had an official CM 11 on board. Wanted to update it to CM 12, found this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-g2/development/5-0-2-cyanogenmod-12-t3037040
Downloaded, flashed, everything was fine. Then I installed SuperSU from the Play store. Next, opened the app and tried to install the components it needed. It failed. The app recommended to reboot. After rebooting, the screen was all white with dark corners, I was able to see the interface through the white layer, it looked like this one I found on Google: http://i.stack.imgur.com/gGYktm.jpg
After turning off and on the screen, the colors came back to normal, BUT there are now exactly five one pixel width black lines through the entire length of the screen.
Teriffied, I rebooted quickly to recovery (the lines are there aswell) and installed back CM 11 from the backup with senseless hope. It didn't help.
The phone was connected through the USB cable to my laptop all the time.
Couldn't find any fix to the problem, please help me, the phone is new and without warranty. (the guy that sold me it didn't say it was the ATT D800 one, I live in Europe so no warranty here, I guess.)

Its an incorrect firmware case. Don't worry. Simply restore it using the LG Flash tool and you should be fine. And remember, always go to CM12 site for most recent firmware files.

You you search, you'll find it is a common problem. It is likely related to overheating, and it is a permanent. Fortunately it is not so critical and you can live with it

[Q] Help to find mod for my phone's broken screen

hi, I have a htc butterfly with the broken screen.The phone is rooted and has xposed framework installed on the stock htc rom.It's running on android 4.3 with sense 5.5.I tried one handed mod but it did not work out properly. The problem is the top right hand portion is damaged it has a big black spot all the to the top left side. But the touch is still working properly on the black damaged portion. So I want help to find a mod the shrink the display size like on G3,note4 with status bar, because I can't see the network, WIFI icons. I am also attaching some pics of my phone. I am new here, so please kindly help me.

Display Touch screen make,model & version

I have recently replaced my moto g (xt 1033) screen & touch as the original was broken. Within days I have found out that the touch is not working certain points in the touch screen. I have confirmed this with the paint test of YAMTT app (Yet Another Multi Touch app - screenshot is attached). Now, I have a suspicion that whether the parts replaced are original (The service center guy says he has replaced original parts and I have paid for it). How I can verify this? Is there any test or app in android, which will display the make and model of the touch & screen? (I need this because I want to comeback to the service center person with evidence.)

How can I use my entire screen?

I don't need the edge functionality of the phone and would just like to use that portion for whatever is on my screen instead. I experimented with Nova launcher and it removed the edge panel...but only part of it. The edge panel is gone but I still see a thin black bar all the way at the right side of the screen remaining. I want to completely use the entire screen of the phone. So is there a way to remove the black bar and maximize my screen real estate? I feel like maybe a custom rom would do that but I don't wanna go that far unless I know it achieves that.
I kinda had the same problem as you . The edge wasn't very important to me . Flashing a custom rom did help me in achieving that . The first rom I tried was RR by micky I it comes with a omni switch so ya can turn on/off the edge functionality . But if ya prefer to be on MM I would recommend noble rom it comes with an edge panel but is invisible for most of the time ; . I personally use n915f with noble rom and Micky's kernel . Hope this helps

Do you get the ENTIRE screen or is there a remaining thin black bar? Nova Launcher got rid of the edge panel and gave me more screen but I'm still left with a thin black bar on the side so I'm not utilizing my entire screen as I wanted. Can you show me a picture of your phone with either of those roms? I don't want to go through the headache of installing it only to find out its like Nova in the end result of a thin black bar leftover. And will those roms work on an at&t Note edge? Thanks for your response
Due to some unknown reasons am unable to upload a screenshot "network error". Could ya please check noble rom thread ( OP : Albe96) under the development section . He has uploaded some screenshots which will give you a better idea . The title says it works for only Fy&G versions but with the right kernel it worked fine for me on 915f . Am not sure if it works on at&t version of edge . Maybe you can post a question under the rom thread sure somebody will help you
Update : I don't have any black bars.

I meant pictures like an actual pic, not screenshot because I wanted to see if the black bar was visible. But its okay, I appreciate the info you provided. I'll take a look at that now but might not risk it because it doesn't sound like its compatible with the at&t Note Edge.
it would be nice to use the entire screen to display everything

Do you know what the screen size is without the edge panel? Like say I'm using a web browser or some other app and the edge panel is gone now, how big is the display with the edge panel out? 5.4, 5.5 or 5.6 inches? And how big is everything total with the edge panel included?
dont think its possible ,its two separated screens ?
No it's definitely one screen.
I'm in the same situation. Couldn't get the Noble ROM working on my F device unfortunately. I uninstalled the Cocktailbar service to get rid of the edge panel (sped up the device quite a bit BTW). Nova wallpaper covers the entire screen now but the display of the icons gets trimmed off when scrolling.
A Note compatible application will show under an app that gets clipped short and if you window an application, you can drag it to cover the curved portion of the screen so on a system level, it is possible to utilise the entire screen.
There must be a configuration setting somewhere that defines the application rendering area. As a relative Android newbie, does anyone know where such a setting may be found?

Thanks for your response to my post. Even after all this time I'm still trying to get this phone to utilize the entire screen. I'm not sure how you uninstalled Cocktailbar service because I didn't get an option to do so. I have Nova launcher which did get rid of the edge panel but there's still a thin black line on the side of the phone. When the edge panel exists, it utilizes the entire screen but when I remove it by using Nova launcher, I lose the edge panel but I still can't maximize my screen usage because of the thin black bar left on the side. This is so frustrating.
if you dial the service mode , you can test both screen separately , main panel and edge panel , not sure if it one screen at all , thats why note edge is the only curve screen that works ?
I used Uninstall which you can get from the play store. Requires root access, really speeds up the phone when you remove it.
I found a hacky way to get the screen to extend nearly all the way to the edge by dropping the DPI of android system process to 50 and then overriding the DPI of everything else to the normal 640. System notifications are stupidly small and unusable though as well as any edge apps like the camera, see attached. Best option is to bite the bullet and get a Note 4 ROM working I think.
Weird I find the edge screen much more useful without the specialist software. Fast scrolling with a full screen is lovely on the edge bit.
Download and flash a AOSP Rom or Note 4 Rom and then I'd recommend Total Launcher
I'm using MRU Widget as my homescreens softkey row.

Yeah, eventually my tinkering made my phone go bang so I had to reflash. Bit of a pain but can't recommend it high enough. I went for the ROM below, a Note 7 adaption and it's awesome. Have to tinker a bit to get finger prints working but it's straight forward enough.

Hi, I flashed a Note 4 ROM on my Note Edge yesterday, only to find the entire screen worked as a whole! But an issue showed up: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/camera-app-interfaces-malposition-issue-t3960314

Advice. General Dynamics Itronix GD300. ROM update wanted

Hi guys
this is my first post, so please excuse if I describe things incorrectly.
First of all I bought the device about 5 years ago and haven't really tried to do anything with it. These are made mainly for battlefield operations, so have 3 attractive features that I wanted.
1. Daylight viewable screen
2. Rugged construction and case.
2. High accuracy GPS
I intend to use this as a navigation aid on a sailboat. It has the advantage of the case incorporating slots so that it can be worn on your forearm using suitable (velcro) straps
So to the advice needed. I recharge it recently and turned it on. It boots to home screen OK
But as soon as I touch the screen I get an errors (typically Application Android keyboard (in process com.android.inputmethod.latin) is not responding))
If iI select Force close I get a 2nd error
The process android.process. acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
If i select Force close, sometimes it just comes back, sometimes the screen changes just to the status bar.
If I wait for the screen to go to power save and then select the power button, the home screen comes back. Then I go around the loop again.
This isn't always the sequence of events and varies, but essentially the device is unusable.
So to my question is there a way of bring this back to life? Possibly by loading a suitable ROM? ( there is no support for this from what I can find on the web)
Or maybe just use as a paper weight?
It does have an SD card slot
It also only has a power button, menu button, home button and a back/return button. No volume buttons.
Thanks in advance for your advice/input

Sorry for not fully reading the thread title (which I should have done).
Unfortunately, your phone is very old. On the spec list it does not even list what Android version it is running. (I assume that it is something like android 1.6). I don't know how to debug these old devices. I could not find any info on how to debug devices this old. The only info I came along is about an old phone with android 1.6 and it has fastboot. Can you boot your phone into fastboot? From there you may be able to reset the phone. Here is the guide for another old phone about resetting it (also look at the 1st reply, don't try the 2nd reply commands they will break your phone).

Thanks for the reply
Maybe I am missing something, was there a link in your reply to the old phone you mentioned? If you provide that I'll have a go at resetting through fastboot.
Its definitely old, I reckon Android 1.6 is about right. I'd be happy to re-flash it with that if possible.
cheers
