I dont know it it is a software issue to what. Last night I put my phone in my pocket. I pulled it out and the screen was a frozen white noise image. I dont know it my phone is locked up cause I used the revolution rom or the screen went bad. Any ideas?
I will try to add a phone. I currently am using my old pantech c300 due to lack of back up phones.

Before I offer any advice, what have you done so far to try and remedy this (i.e. battery pull, reformat phone, bang it on a desk...)? I just need to know what you've done before I try and offer you the same solution...
WHat I have tried
I have currently tried battery pull. Restore via power/volume down. I just tried to restart again for giggle. my bt headset did say phone 2 connected.
currently this is what the screen looks like,.
You can just text me with advice if it would be easier. thanks again.
Where you overclockign at all? GPU,CPU or OV~UV gpu failure could do that
No overclocking I know of. Heck I'd stock if I could get it back

I'm not sure exactly how this applies to HTC phones, but for Samsung phones, the 3-button boot into recovery usually clears these kinds of issues right up!
Once you get into recovery, we clear data, cache and dalvik cache, potentially restoring your phone back to stock condition. Yes, you lose all your stuff, but whatever was causing the malfunction is usually gone at that point. There's a possibility it could just be how your ROM was interacting with your lovely manufactured equipment (YMMV - Your Mileage May Vary, meaning not all phones are built the same so what works for some may not work for others due to the small differences in every manufactured part...)
Now as far as your screen goes, did you drop it or anything like that? Do you think this was physically damaged while in your pocket at all? Does it get pretty hot when in your pockets or was it hot this time when you pulled it out?
Not hot. It wont go into boot loader

I followed this. Several time. I changed batteries. changed sd card. and left the battery out for 30. Still not working.
1. Remove the battery, wait for a few seconds, then reinsert the battery.
2. Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then briefly press the POWER button.
3. Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the VOLUME DOWN button.
4. Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER button."
So the phone works.just had the alarm go off. If that's any help.

It was found out to be the screen. I had a friend mess with it and he said it just came back on. he made it stock again and it goes out Monday for warranty. I gotta pay for shipping but its alot cheaper than a new phone.
Interesting. Who manufactured the screen? There seem to be a lot of issues with the Sensations display, it would be cool if we could isolate it to one of the two manufacturers.
Might want to change your title to reflect "[SOLVED]" somewhere in it, also.
Sorry I couldn't help more, but hardware isn't my thing

When you say he messed with it, what exactly did he do?
I quoted wdhat he said. sorry for the vague wording. I believe he took the back off and suspended it upside down from teh back for an hour then restarted it 15 times and it came back on. after that he went put it all back together. From what he said if you press on certain parts of the screen it goes out. but then others if comes back. Similar to a teeter totter. as he put it. I am guessing a ribbon has come loose or something
I rarely start a thread and i typically search first and i did that already but couldn't find an answer or someone else with the issue...
So my problem is simple but annoying... When i snap a picture with the stock camera app and flash turned on, randomly my phone shuts off and will NOT turn on again until i do a battery pull... I say randomly because it doesn't always happen... But it happens quite often...
I haven't tried with a 3rd party camera app because I prefer to use stock apps mostly... So I'm not sure if its app related or hardware related... I'm leaning towards hardware because I've had this issue since running 4.1.2 ROMs and I've tried multiple stock/modified camera apps to no avail... Currently on 4.2.1 ROM with of course the 4.2 camera...
Torch toggle works fine, as well as turning on the flash while recording video... This ONLY happens when the flash comes on for taking a photo... And again it only happens randomly...
Anyone else experience this or know how to fix it?

The first thing I would do is flash factory Google. This will rule out it being a ROM issue. If the problem is so there then yes it is a hardware issue.

I've seen that happen with a bad battery once. Would occur more often at low charge percentage too, but was relatively fine at 100%. Took a while to figure out what the heck was going on

Strangely, it was doing it before i got a new battery a couple months ago... I sorta felt my battery was bad so i went to get a new one from the sprint store... The guy said because "It was rooted and the phone had so much awesomeness.." it was draining the battery faster... I told him a quick reason why i thought it had to be the battery and he just gave me a battery from the drawer without doing any paperwork or anything... My battery wasn't feeling any better after the change and i still had issues with flash...
I think I'll just take some photosphere pics and well lit shots... Who needs flash anyways? Lol
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk 2
I have the EXACT same issue however long pressing the power button turns on the phone instead of pulling the battery. It also started happening to me only on jelly bean. My GF has the same problem.
I can also tell you it happens with camera zoom FX as well but this cannot be a hardware issue since it only happened in jelly bean. It cant be that "suddenly" our phones developed a problem.
Is nobody using a nexus S to take photos or what? Or is it just a few unfortunate users affected by this?
Thanks for that post... Now I know I'm not alone here lol... I too noticed it with JB... Its %~°^¶©£ annoying... I wish a dev would look into it... I think it may have something to do with the flash having that instant jolt of high voltage... Idk because I'm no expert... I found a 50/50 chance of making it work correctly... If you hold the shutter button to let it focus, then let it snap, there's a chance it won't shut off... Just something to try and see if it helps!!

just did a complete factory restore back to 4.1.1 unrooted and everything... forgot to test the camera... i rooted again and installed custom recovery... tested camera out several times... no issue at all... tested some more... no issues... decided it WORKS!! so i flashed cm10.1 and updated everything again... tested camera and OFF!!! FU%$&*&@&#&^$%$^@&$^&$^^%$#^%@*@*@&&#^*&@^#*&^@#*^ i'm at a loss for what to do here... i'm glad one other person reported this... but there HAS to be more people out there with this issue...
test it... make sure flash is ON and snap a few pics... maybe a close pic out of focus, etc... idk what else to do... it worked fine unrooted...
I've had this issue happen randomly to me too...but usually only when my battery is low. And it is VERY annoying when it happens.

doesn't matter my battery level... it happens on my charger too lol...
I didnt have this problem last night on a wedding thankfully as that would have been embarrassing, lots of pics were taken with flash. Its the sheer randomness of this that it makes it so hard to diagnose. :S
I've been having exactly the same problem. I cannot relate it to Battery Levels, as the battery drains sooo fast since I got the ICS upgrade.
I am now on the Factory ROM 4.1.2 and it is all problems. I am thinking of going back to Ginger Bread... them were the days!!!
J.
if you read above, it worked fine for me when i flashed 4.1.1 factory image... something to do with 4.2 i guess... idk... i'm not stressing it so much... i've learned not to use my camera when its dark or low light lol...
have the same problem

Its a Battery Problem
I'm suffering from this same issue and after downloading several camera app to no avail, the issue is finally resolved. From my experience, I can safely conclude that my was a hardware battery issue. At first I didn't believe it was a battery problem. I decided to go to different stores and tried several batteries but all shut down the phone when the flash on/flash auto + taking a snap is executed. Then, I pulled out the battery from my friend's brand new S3 and inserted it in my phone's battery compartment, fire on the phone and voila the camera flash worked like a charm without shutting down the phone. I used the same old battery on the new S3 low and behold, the new S3 inherited the flash+camera=shutdown issue instantly.
Same Issue on SGS2 Hercules
Having this issue after flashing a ROM on my GS2 Hercules, good thing I only experience it when my battery level is below 25%. But it would really be a pain if I would want to take a picture with a flash while my battery is low.
Have anybody tried other solution or troubleshooting aside from trying a different/new battery.
similar problem here...
the same thing happens to me, but with the difference that i run stock 4.1.2 rooted, and when the phone die after the led flashes, i just press pwr button and the phone turn on like never was happened.
i think it's a problem of corruption of something in the system, if i do a factory reset, for some limited shot the camera+led works, after that the phone die instantly.
similar problem with front camera, if i switch from back to front the camera service crashes and i can't do anything for make it working (manually stop the gallery process, reboot, cleaning data of gallery process), just wait some days and the process came back working (just for the rear camera).
sometimes i notice that while the stock camera app doesn't work, the Whats app camera keep working also with flash!

same issue with the nexus 5.. taking pictures works and then suddenly shuts down the phone, the power button can't wake the phone and the only way to get it to turn on is to plug it into an outlet.. very annoying.
that said I looked around the forums and it seems like a hardware battery issue, when the voltage supplied is too low or high or something
flash has caused my phone to shut off.
got GS3 SCH-i535 I've noticed the flash causing the screen to black out completely and shut off phone. I usually have to pull battery. its done it on 4.2 and 4.3 probably even 4.1 i dont remember I'm currently running 4.4.2. it just did it again which has prompted me to look online. as glad as i am to know im not the only one. is there any ****ing solution???
Went to unlock my phone this morning off the charger and the screen is totally dead. Couldn't unlock or do anything to it or even see what was going on, called Google and ordered a replacement ASAP.
Went through the not fun task of doing a nandroid backup without seeing what was on the screen and doing some trickery with screenshots then backing up my entire SD card.
However, here's the strange and potentially dangerous thing that I noticed later when I got home this evening. I went to look at the phone and go to a fastboot flash with the factory images and went to touch the bottom of the screen. When I went to do so, to the little bit of the left of the LED light was a SUPER hot portion of the phone. I almost burnt my finger it was so hot.
Not sure what to do about the issue, I feel like if I just call the support line they won't actually take in my concern legitimately. Any suggestions?
thats something quite strange
let us know what google says about RMA and this issue
Agree, maybe it's just your phone, maybe it's all the batch. Which batch/model do you have?

On my Transformer Infinity, sometimes the screen won't turn on at all. On a few occasions, if I press Power enough times, I get a glimpse of a message saying the Launcher process has stopped, but then my touchscreen doesn't register any input. The tablet is also sometimes running quite hot at those times. The only way I know to recover from this is press the Power button long enough to force a reboot, then everything is normal. Could this be what's happening? Do you know if the phone is still running under the black screen? Have you tried forcing a reboot, and did it work?
As for the hot phone, I've noticed my N5 does get a bit warm when I'm using it intensively (4G, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and screen on all at the same time and in use) but not enough to burn me. Could be hard to tell which component is heating up like that since I think it could be the screen backlight, SoC or battery... Do let us know if you find out more.

I had called them and reported the screen totally dead with lines streaking vertically and got a new replacement ordered. It wasn't until late last night when I got back and had the screen on in this dead mode that the bottom was extremely hot. I'll have to call them back and let them know

Yeah, no its definitely dead. There were streaked lines across it, rebooted it multiple times. I ended up going into the bootloader and recovery via adb/fastboot and all that jazz. It eventually just would not work now.
In regards to the hot part I definitely think it was the lower part of the screen. It was quite literally half an inch away from the LED to the left. Was super super hot then once I shut the defective screen off (I could tell by the backlit light or whatever) it wasn't hot anymore after a minute or so.
Is it black/white? 16 or 32? When did you get it?

32gb black version. I ordered it immediately when they announced it that day.
mine gets really warm when i'm doing a TWRP backup then it goes into bootloop after and wont cool down. i have to force it to power off from recovery and let it cool, but i've always seen it happen. i wonder if yours was attempting to boot over and over for hours and cooked itself.....? i have a launch day black 32gb too, running Cataclysm with Franco at the moment but it was doing it on rooted stock with stock kernel
I had to send my 19 day old 32Gb Red Nexus 5 in to LG for the same reason. I was using the phone and all of the sudden had vertical lines and the bottom of the screen got burn your fingers hot. Waiting to see what LG does with my phone. The only thin I can figure is the synaptics chip which controls the screen is bad. Its the only thing in that area that could get that hot. I also noticed when I first got my phone the glass in the same area looked like it had a slight wave in it. Didn't think anything of it at the time. I'll let you know how it goes.
Is RMA/replacement applicable for Rooted and unlocked devices?
I don't believe its an issue with developer phones as long as the issue wasn't caused by something you did like brick it by flashing a wrong radio or something like that. It has to be a manufacture defect to get it fixed for free.

My device issue is related to power button. there is no software issue.
The power button is rattling since from the purchase of the device.

Hello All!
New user to xda, and I really need help.
I got a Nexus 5 about 15 days ago, and it has worked perfectly fine...until now.
For some reason, I was playing a game and all of the sudden the nexus 5 screen just flipped, but apparently it is only the graphics, because the controls remained on the same place (which makes it even worse).
I tried turning off the phone and back on, but even the boot logo is upside down.
I am even wiping the data to reset to phone to factory image, and even the recovery screen is upside down.
Has someone got into this trouble and knows how to fix it?

Is it possible that the cause of the screen going that way is the heat of using the Phone as a GPS, holding on the dash of the car? maybe the heat made it crazy...
Hard to say. As someone else mentioned, if it does it in both recovery and fully booted Android, you have a hardware issue. It could be from sun cooking and damaging the gpu, I guess. It does seem that your best option is RMA.
Upside Down and Backward!
I've had my Nexus 5 since December and have been very happy with it. I just had the exact same experience, where a swipe (in WWF) flipped my entire UI upside down and backward. The UI didn't match input points either; to select something that was a little up and to the right, I'd have to hit a little down and to the left to make the proper selection. Top right corner equals bottom left corner, and so on...
Getting ready to start a return; did you learn anything?

Im having the same issue. I wanted to know what the results were after you send it to repair.
My nexus 5 is still under warranty (bought it in amazon.es, but I think the warranty is with LG directly), but Im afraid if they consider it as a broken screen they'll want to charge me 160eur or so from what I have read (the outer screen is in perfect shape).
I also found from other phones having the same issues that it could have something to do with the flex cable (usb). This at least I could dare repairing it by myself.
I did a factory reset, and even in developer mode is all flipped and turned upside down. The place were all the buttons are supposed to be remain as if nothing is damaged, so I have to guess were on the other side that 'key' should be. Very annoying.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.
So i was using my 907a playing injustice God's amongst us and right in the middle of play the screen goes blue and then the tablet shuts off. I hooked it up to my charger, no charging lights..this thing appears to be dead. Hopefully my Att insurance Will cover this...it was rooted but only do i could do the sdcard fix....any suggestions...i have had lot of devices this is a first
Wonder if the tablet or the battery overheated. Let it sit on the charger overnight. Hope that is all it was.
I honestly think it was the game...i got the tablet to boot into recovery and then rebooted it.so then i started to play the game again and bang blue screen. Same process, reboot into recovery and record....i could not get the tab to just turn on. After the last time i got it back on i have watched 3 hours of straight video and no problems.this was strange i have never had a device do this so we will see what happens.i uninstalled the game to be on the safe side
I'm just wondering if perhaps you are using Nova Launcher. I have had a blue screen 2 times now and on this last one yesterday it coincided with an update for Nova (play store was on auto update...) I managed to reboot with home and power button.
Yeah actually i am using nova...i use it on my g3 and nexus 7 too...I'll have to look into that thanks
Me too

Just chimming in to say me too. Mine doesn't fade to black though, it just stays blue until I hit the power button then goes black and reboots. A few times it stayed blue until I held the power and volume buttons and rebooted like you did. I came here to try and find the stock rom for the At&t 12.2 and happened to see your comment. Nothing I have tried works. I used rom manager to fix permissions but with certain apps it just does not want to run right.
Hey! I get the exact same thing when playing Boom Beach. Im also using Nova Launcher. The screen goes blue, then fades to black and I have to reboot into recovery to get the tablet to turn back on. I havent played Injustice enough to notice it with that game, and I dont see it happen with Clash of Clans, or any other non intensive game. I chalked it up to overheating, but the Nova Launcher bit seems to be a common issue with us as well. Maybe it's Nova?

I chalked it up to overheating, but the Nova Launcher bit seems to be a common issue with us as well. Maybe it's Nova?

Just wanted to tell everyone else I'm having the same issue too. This started last week while I was in class using Samsung App Hword 2014 for a class report I made sure to save what I was doing but didn't save the 2nd half of my report. When I got the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH..Last night I was playing Assassin's Creed Pirates and a few hours ago had this Tab crash on me with the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH... Oh I also forgot to say that sometime it doesn't show key pad when you wake up the tablet for some reason I think Samsung needs to roll out an update fix for this.So anyone can get access to you tablet even if your tablet is setup for security key pin.
I hope this helps.
I did a chat with Samsung and they told me to clean my cache go to recovery mode.
power off the tablet, then hold the vol. up home button and power. That brings you to the recovery mode use the vol.button to clear cache and then reboot. I'm still testing it out. Seeing if this happens again but most likely will be returning it because I got a defective Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 32 gig AT&T..
I recommend register your tablet on Samsung web site and report this I got a clam ID for record on my account. I think Samsung knows about this because they also said if my screen went from blue to black. Mine was stuck on blue and it rebooted.:highfive::laugh:
Same issue I was having. It was really bad after a while. Every few minutes or so. The tablet was unusable. I sent it back to Samsung to be fixed. I haven't had a single crash since I got it back. It seems to be a ATT version issue.

I have the same issue. Maybe due to xposes framework. It does seem to get more unstable after root. I may go back to stock and see how it performs. Then only apply root.
Try going to developer options and unchecking force GPU rendering
I continue to have this issue about 5 to 20 times a day using any game or app that is resource hungry. Usually the minute I get the BSoD I hold the power button and home button until it reboots. I'm completely stock, no root.

I contacted samsung and they are claiming they had no complaints...they recommended a restore .so i tried it, i then had it go blue on me while reading a book...so I'm calling tomorrow and recommend everyone on here experiencing this to contact them...this is bs
The AT&T version has a flaw that they don't want to admit until you complain about it. I have not had any issues since I sent it in for repair.

I have the same problem with mine and have sent it into samsung twice now with neither time fixing the issue
FYI - I had the same issue on a brand new, totally stock, 2 hour old Note. I had it for a week and it would blue->reboot at least once per day. I took it back to AT&T and swapped it out. I've had the replacement for 3 weeks now and it hasn't happened once.
Just sent mine back to Samsung... Should arrive there today... Hopefully they fix it
OK they closed my ticket... Replaced the LCD on my note and is being shipped back. I will keep this thread updated... I don't think it was the LCD but I could be wrong and that is a expensive repair for them to do just for the hell of it. So hopefully this fixes it.

Interesting. That's not what they replaced on mine. They replaced some part that gets updates from AT&T. They said it wouldn't update and that's what was causing the blue screen crash.
