For about a weak or so i got a problem with my screen,when typing a certain area of the screen is not working like:
-on cm in performance options i cant press ok on the warning message only in landscape mode works
-on google chrome i cant press sing in(see attachment)
and other apps in the same area but on keyboard everything is ok
I did drop my phone 6 weeks a go on the screen and since then my screen upper right conner started to move and maybe some dirt got in true there and cause this issue or is just because my phone is more than 2 years old and i should consider buying a new screen
Any one else ever had this problem or can some one give me some advice
Hello! Same problem here! I think it's faulty digitizer! Nothing can do for that!
I think buy a new phone! 50gbp for digitizer is too much for old phone

If that is the problem then for me it's a new Galaxy nexus or a Nexus 4 this summer

There's already a thread that discussed this here in the forum, you might search and find it for more details, but I believe the consensus was it's a hardware issue and to take the phone back.

Hi Android GURUs,
Please your help needed. I'm new to Android (i've always used Iphone), I have brand new Nexus 5, bought in UK 8 days ago. Last few days I'm having this major problem with the screen. The problem occurs when I start using the phone for 15-20mins. It's absolutely impossible to use the phone screen .
The screen starts shaking everything in gets mixed up, flickers and impossible to use it. I tried to restart it and nothing happens.
When I leave it for 30 mins it behaves normal again but after 15-20mins using the same problem again.
I'm thinking whether I mad wrong decision moving to android, please prove me wrong and tell me android also as good as iPhone.
I'm new to this forum hence NOT allowed to link my youtube video where I could link it.
Please any1 send me email I'll reply with my youtube link.
many thanks
Sounds like you have a faulty device. Nothing to do with Android or the phone at all.. Just bad luck.. Can happen to anything that you get one that has a manufacturen problem.

You may have a faulty device, this flickering is not software related but is caused by faulty hardware imo. Exchange i asap as its soon going to die on you.

Very clearly a graphics card glitch. Bad memory by the looks of it. Very similar to the issues seen on the tegra3. Get it returned!
Not even anything to do with the screen; this is the graphics unit. When the GPU is damaged you usually get artifact and strange line emitting from the middle of the screen, the issue you have usually occurs when the memory on the GPU is damaged. Faulty screen redraws etc.
Regardless, not a screen issue but a graphics card/memory issue. Needs replacement, no software by the looks of it.

Either way you will need to replace the device. So send it back where ever you got it from so you can get it exchanged.
I also highly doubt its an Android 4.4 bug... Because of 2 things:
Your the only one with the problem, if it really was an Android 4.4 bug you would see more people with this problem.
Screen flickering most of the time is either a hardware defect or a driver problem.

My Nexus 5 screen is now starting shift up and down. I bought it in Nov 2013 so it is now out of warrantee so cant just return it. Is there a fix for this?
Check out my nexus 5 screen shake. It's my RMA unit. And my warranty is over. Looks like I have to buy another phone then. This is hugely disappointing.

I have been using my Nexus 5 from 2013 too. I just got this issue and I tried to fix it my self by taking the mobile apart. somehow i got a boot loop and I flashed all system again. definitely hardware issue because this happens in my recovery too.

Did you ever find a solution?
Hello XDA,
My Nexus 5 running CM12 5.0.2 nightly will not respond to the touches anymore infact when I press the power button to activate the display it acts as if someone is touching it randomly messing all the apps that are running and opening and closing many other things.
Furthermore it displays weird and burned lines throughout the screen. It was not dropped, no water went inside the device or anything. If it helps I did install the OTA updates that CM gives us.
I have also attached pictures so you may get a better understanding of my problem.
Thanks in advance.

Hmm I see. Well since a month HAS passed, its definetly not the rom thats causing the problem, i don't know if anything regarding the software could even be causing the problem. Its 100% hardware and by that i mean the screen, you should change it, the touch and also the display are messed up.

Is it possible that a driver update could fix this, if so then how?

I hate to be the bringer of bad news - but your screen is toast. Fortunately you can replace the touch and display components all at once.
http://www.amazon.com/Skiliwah-Digitizer-Assembly-Google-nexus5/dp/B00HN0U168
Here is what you need to perform the repairs - and here are the procedures for disassembly.
https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Disassembling+Nexus+5+Display+Teardown+-+liquid+damage/32410
Trust me, it's not that difficult. Unfortunately, it's a bit pricey ($60 for the screen and digitizer), nevertheless much cheaper than a new device or sending your device in for repairs.

Problem Solved
The screen isn't toast, neither is the digitizer. I have 2 of these phones. The parts which cause problems like this are the main board and the ribbon with the USB connector on it, which also attaches the screen & digitizer to the main board. One was showing lines exactly like this, & also no touch. I put a replacement main board in. Works great now. The other, wouldn't even turn on. I put the main board from the first phone in the second one, it still wouldn't turn on. I replaced the ribbon cable, it turns on and perfectly replicates the issue from the first phone. So now, I have one fully functioning LG Nexus 5, and another which turns on with the same problem as yours. This is good, I started out with 2 of them that were useless to me. So, it appears that your display and touch issues are caused solely by a bad main board. A replacement main board costs somewhere around $75. After swapping stuff around, I have 2 bad main boards, 1 bad USB ribbon & 1 working phone of 2. Not bad, not bad at all.
Hello, So my Nexus 5 began going into bootloop and random reboot since last december and I could usually fit it by tapping around the power button. This problem is well known and the only real fix is to change the power button. Since my phone is out of waranty by a couple weeks I opened it up and when looking at the power switch I thought .... No way I can change that, ill just try my luck with tech support ...
Luckilly they agreed to send me an RMA right away I'm just a little concern because the back cover now does not fit like it used to and the phone is missing a plastic tab on top of the sim tray. Do you think google will charge me ? Anyone had a similar issue before ? I really don't want to play for that rma ...
Hi guys,
I'm looking for some help and advice ! Long story short (will try), I purchased a used z5 with a display/screen issue (I guess).
The first owner told me he dropped the phone and that screen was cracked and not working anymore, so he brought it to the repair store... they replaced the screen with a new one, but they told him that the new screen was broken / dead on arrival, and that they would order a new one to replace it again. The guy couldn't wait another month to get is phone back working again, so he quit with the phone like that and purchased a used samsung.
I purchased the standard sony z5 from him. The screen have color lines in it... sometimes purple lines on the left of the screen, all from top to bottom, sometimes it's different (like right now it's alonost all white), but it is not working at all - I don't see anything useful on the screen.
The phone seems to be working though because the flash/photo work with the lower button on the left side... there is an alarm after midnight on it (I wake up like an idiot the first time it came up, trying to stop the alarm, but fingerprint is not mine and screen is not working... I was at the hotel, and damn it was loud... I think it waked up everyone in the other rooms around me before stopping it with power/fingerprint + volume up ;p)
So, I'm wondering if there's only the screen to replace again (with a good one), or if it's worst...
Does anyone know about that kind of issue, and which kind of screen would you put on it ? I want to put a good quality one to use the phone after that.
Thanks in advance for any help and advices !
