so i bought this 16gb nexus 5 D820 a little over 2 months ago and had no problems with it whatsoever until this noon, when i was just browsing the 'net as usual, my phone became warm, i thought it was normal since i checked cpu-z it said it was 45 degrees and normal, cool..i kept on browsing till it rebooted by itself twice, still no problem,cool. since it was running low on battery i charged it and upon finishing the screen looks like this now, apart from it, everything else still works though.

i thought it was software issue since i didn't crack the screen, nor did i drop it, i was on purity + hellscore then. i flashed google factory image, unroot it and locked the bootloader again making it look as if it was just taken out of the box, but to no avail, it still looks like this up until now
i guess the heat somehow broke the lcd's component,
has anyone ever experienced this before ? how on earth could this happen?
Just a random hardware failure... These things just happen out of the blue... I'm not sure but I don't think this flickering has anything to do with the device rebooting itself on getting hot..
RMA it asap...
Even I am facing the same issue since few days. I am yet yo find the solution to fix this. I do not want to replace the display just for this. I just hope this might not create any problems in future. Please let me know if u have found the solution to fix this issue

Hey guys, I've hit a snag. I'm tired of the horrid performance with the stock ROM so I'm wanting to unlock, but I don't want to unlock until I'm fully satisfied with the tablet I have.
The main concern is that the light bleed on my tablet is rather distracting... I've included this image with both RMAs, both times I received the tablet back it's the same exact story.

I'm curious if this is normal bleed for the TF300 or if I should RMA it a third time. I understand that most if not all backlit panels will have some light bleeding, but the blob at the top right corner is just insane. Is there something in the top right that is putting pressure on the screen causing this patch to be more apparent than others?
The other issue I'm having is when I'm updating from the Play Store, copying files from computer, or anything else that messes with the memory I'll come to a state where my tablet is completely useless. Every program will hang and stop responding, wanting to close or have me wait. I've read many things about the I/O scheduler and I'm assuming this is what is causing that, another reason I'm wanting to unlock... but again, the backlight is bugging me to the point where I can barely tolerate it.
If this is normal bleed, I'll have to suck it up and deal with it then just unlock to hopefully solve my other problems, however... if not, I'd really like to get a tablet that I'm satisfied with before unlocking so I'm not stuck in the water without a warranty.
I recently dropped my Xoom (in a case onto a carpeted floor). It semeed to survive but now the display shows distorted colors like the sample attached. I thought it might be a loose connection but I can be working away and the screen will revert to normal and stay that way for days.
And I can suspend it while it's okay, come back to it and the display is corrupt again.
Can anybody work out what could be going on? I would prefer not to have to replace the screen but I don't really know if that is the issue if it reverts back to normal all the time.
Thanks

The screenshots look fine to me, how about upload the images of your LCD screen not screenshots.

Silly me. The screen shots look distorted to me also because I was posting on the device!
Yeah looks like a loose connector to me. You may be able to fix it if it was a soldering joint. I guess the repair can do the same thing.
I dropped my tablet recently and the screen got screwed like yours, but mine is worse. I don't know too much about hardware, but I think that it's the crystal that broke, so it may be hard to fix :/. Anyway, if you get it back working I hope you to share some info with me, as well I will do if I get working .
Hi,
I experiencing problems with my gps, as it seems to not be working. Don't think it has ever actually has been working, that all my positions where retrieved trough network.
Tried the following:
- upgraded to latest OS(4.4.3),
- updated all my apps
- tested in safe mode
- reset to factory defaults.
And it still doesn't retrieve any position, which makes me concerned it is hardware related. Attached a screenshot from my gps app and version of my nexus 5 Location is set to: High Acuracy
Anyone have any tips??

I had a similar issue with my Nexus 5. No amount of rebooting/reinstalling was helping, until I realised one corner of my phone was pried open, probably when I dropped it the day before. I pushed it back in, and all of a sugged GPS is back to normal.
So I'm afraid your problem sounds like a hardware issue. Did you drop it recently?

Hi
I have been having this issue for a couple of months and i do not know where i would start to troubleshoot
Basically with full charge every time i use either the Maps or a game (what i noticed anyway) it shuts off and after a couple of attempts to turn it back on it would come on but the battery will be 1 or 2%. and i have to charge it again.
I have flashed it to stock and used pretty much all the ROMs available with no success(. It seemed like a hardware issue but i do not know what it is. I could try replacing the battery but i am not convinced that is the problem.
I did not drop it or abuse it in any ways. Always kept it clean .
I am attaching a screenshot of the battery after it happened
If anyone has any idea of what could it be and share i would REALLY appreciate it
Thank you

Your going to need a new battery, sounds to me like a voltage issue

Thank you!
I will get a new battery and see.
Hi guys this is my very first topic. I have been using this phone for about 6 months and this problem started a few days ago and it's being annoying. Hopefully someone here would know what can I do.
The screen sometimes gets stuck just like freezing and doesn't respond to any kind of touch well the only touch working is if I hold the home button and it only vibrates. The way that it gets back to normal is to press the lock button and unlock the phone again, sometimes it takes a while to unlock it is like it's not responding, after a few attempts it gets back to normal... since yesterday this problem is more frequent so I am here hoping that some kind wisdom person could help me. And the other thing is that when it's stuck the screen change colours like multicolor it could be the entire screen or just part of it. Here some pictures of how it looks I don't know if it's firmware or hardware

You know, to me it sounds like there are an app, or a few that are not behaving when loaded, and clogging the CPU. As you can, take a look at the apps you are using, and see if you can whittle down the ones, and or uninstall some that may seem the culprit.
If you have a backup, perhaps restore to an earlier time when the phone was operating smoothly, and slowly . . . slowly over days or a few weeks, restore an app or two, and see where it becomes poorly functioning again.
Also, look in settings/Battery etc and see what apps are running when the unresponsiveness occurs again. Write those apps down, and as time goes for a few days/week, see what the common denominator apps show up.
Backups are a wonderful thing.
