[Q] Is there a fix for this or do I need to return my Nexus 5? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I love my Nexus 5 but I'm afraid I'm going to have to put everything back to stock and return it because the bottom of the screen started to act weird today. There is a transparent haze over the bottom 1/4 of the screen that is very annoying to deal with. Attached are a few pictures of the problem since screenshots aren't picking it up. Is there a fix for this?
Thanks,
Harrison

I doubt there is a fix but you could try to flash the factory image.

I think you need to RMA. Looks like a loose connector, or something's gone wrong with the LCD driver. I'd be stunned if that was a software issue.

I returned it & exchanged it same day, very glad I got it from a retail store. Thanks for confirming

Nice selfie bro!

[Q] Back to Stock

My Transformer screen has a horrible issue. For some reason, everything that should display black is displaying red! White text on a black background is now white on red. Any formerly black pixel is now pure bright red. This includes the bootup process.
I'm thinking this means a trip back to an Asus Repair facility. I'm on Prime 1.8 or 1.9, how do I go back to completely factory stock condition? Rom and Recovery? I did some searching around on here, but found nothing.
Nvflash back to stock is the easiest and surest way. Takes about 5 minutes.
Maybe I'm missing an obvious thread, but I cannot find the NVFlash to stock thread.
Haha, noob.
Just kidding, just kidding.
Hurry up and grab the following link before a mod edits it.

Soon after I realized my phone was bleeding, unfortunately I am unable to show you the real thing but these are the exact circumstances it occurs under.

The white line is actually black, and only can be seen when the background is black and surroundings are dark, EX. under the covers of your blanket while watching a video at night.
I want to return the phone to get a new one, but obviously I'm unable to due to rooting and installing a custom ROM, is there a way to get the original rogers ROM back so it will be unnoticeable that I've changed the ROM? If not what other options do I have?
Thanks in advanced , any advice is appreiciated.

Wifi comes and goes. Hardware problem?

So I have two n5 one is white and the other is red. The wifi on the white one works 100% like it is supposed to while the red one the wifi comes and goes. Sometimes it would work but after 5m of usage it would stop working. At first I thought it was the router but after seeing the wifi is working fine on the white n5 I changed my mind. I did everything I could think of. Factory reset, flashed the original images, everything to stock and the problem still persists. I called Google and told me that the phone is still on warranty and offered me an exchange but I have a problem. I have already dropped my phone and I think they won't take it unless I tell them to repair it. Here is the damage. They won't take it right?

Black spots on the back camera ??

Yesterday I found a black spot on the picture that was taken by the back camera and in all apps.

}
So then I power off and did not touch it, and in the morning the spots have changed direction.
I tried to shaking the phone but it does not change anymore. = =
**I used a lens protector all the time, but when removed it the problem still exists.
Does anyone know what that cause is ??
How do I solve this problem or RMA is the only way ? :crying:
Help me please.

That sucks dude, honestly the only way to fix that is to RMA your device, and I definitely would. I've seen a lot of pointless RMA's being discussed here at XDA, but if my camera had any type of problem I would send the phone back.

Screen problem HTC One X AT&T

I've had my HTC One X since the day it came out and love it but I had a problem that turned out to be the motherboard for the phone. I fixed that by finding someone with a broken screen white version from AT&T and bought that since my screen was fine. I switched things around and gave it to my son so he could get away from a Windows phone was using. About a week ago there would be weird texture issues on the screen where the fonts looked to tear almost and then when playing games it would go to a screen of different colored pixels

. Anyway I have taken the phone apart and checked all the connections but I am at a loss and as a matter of fact the phone just sits there on the same screen all the time now so I made it worse.
Anyone with similar experience that has a better idea? Thanks.
