[Q] Screen is black put still on (get calls, vibrates etc) - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys!
I've had my phone for a couple of moths and just a few days ago it started acting weird. When i lock and unlock the phone my screen is black, but the phone is on and "fully working". If someone calls me, the phone vibrates but the screen is still black. Only way to fix it is to reboot. Anyone had this issue or know any solution?
Thanks

Yup, it's happened to me a few times and I have no idea what is causing it.

Are you using a custom kernel?

I've had the same issue over the last few weeks. I'm on rooted stock with franco kernel. Since the latest version r45, I haven't had the problem..

I might just factory reset if it doesn't work and look if that helps

Its just a Franco issue as far as I know I've had the same issues using r40 using the stock kernel or any others its fine no s.o.d

Nice...
Glad I saw this thread. I was thinking it was a kernel related issue. I'm rooted stock with Franco. I was having the issue a few times around r40 - r44. Updated to r45 the other day and haven't had any issues since.

The issue disappeared as soon as I updated to r47. Thanks, guys

Are you stock rom/kernel or custom? I noticed this bug even on stock and I remember it existed even during nexus 4 times, jellybean.

Yup, on stock. Never had this problem with my previous samsung phones.
It is a nexus problem. Very unfortunate google has not fixed it yet.

Spot on. The issue has existed for quite some time now. Remember it at least since my Motorola Atrix 2. My Nexus 4 certainly has it.

[Q] Just received 4.4.3 OTA - Android version still shows 4.4.2?

Hello,
I'm completely stock, no root or anything on my Nexus 5.
I just received the 4.4.3 update (T-Mobile) and downloaded/installed. It asked for a restart, I said ok, and then it restarted.
Afterwards I checked the Android version under About Phone and it still shows as 4.4.2.
Any ideas? When I check for updates, it says I have the latest version.
Thanks!

Yeah, I've done that twice. When in doubt, restart, right?
No dice unfortunately.

I ended up just sideloading it. I shouldn't have had to, but weird issue regardless, especially since I'm completely stock.

[Q] CM11 total loss of signal

I flashed the latest nightly yesterday. Everything was great. Then last night I had a total inability to make or receive phone calls. I thought it might just be an install issue so I did a reinstall and unfortunately same resuts. Im using radio m8974a-2.0.50.1.13..... is this the issue. It works perfectly on stock 4.4.3 and im rooted. I like the rom but need my phone to work. Any suggesions?

If relevant, does your carrier require anything special? (e.g. Sprint users need to flash a fix for APN or something, I wouldn't know as my carrier doesn't need anything)
Was it working at any point in time while on the ROM, or was it like that on first installation?

I use at&t it worked at first for about an hour then stopped. I think it has something to do with the new 4.4.3 stuff. 4.4.2 was fine.
BTW this also happened to a few people on another custom ROM when they went from 4.4.2 to .3. They had to revert to stop also.

Maybe it's just the specific ROM? I suggest you try another first. I have no issues with 4.4.3

So here is a video of my touch screen issues

Pretty frustrating. When I type it sometimes swipes. Sometimes I have to touch apps and things on the screen several times. I hope there's an update soon for this.

So try it and then IF your issue will still be there this can be hw problem or drivers are not final version
I have the same problem, and I am on the latest cm11 nightly and Franco. Nothing has fixed my typing issues

Agree, no improvement with r20.
I've gotten a replacement phone and everything works great stock and with Franco r20. Just the occasional pinch to zoom freakout but a reboot fixes it. I did a DIY RMA. Sold my phone on craigslist and ordered a new one. Traditional RMA is too complicated right now. ?
