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?

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 .
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
Hello, I'm having issues with my Moto G 2015, the screen registers input when I'm not touching it, I switched on developer mode and set it to shot touches, and this was the result:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It does this seemingly at random, and it almost makes it entirely unusable. I've tried wiping the cache and factory resetting the device, and it still has issues. I've also tried cleaning the charging port with a can of air, and cleaning the screen. I'm not using a screen protector.
Any insight would be appreciated.
Apologies for the size of the screenshot.

Did you look through some of the threads here, there are several threads similar to yours? Basically, many of us have the ghost touch issue... This has been on ongoing problem for many people since the device was released, and it seems to get worse and worse with each subsequent OS update (it is rumored that this is why the 6.0.1 roll-out seems to have stopped). There is no known "fix" unfortunately, although if you have a tempered glass screen protector, many users have reported improvements after removing it.
Wow I thought this happened only with me, I called it overdrive mode, happens more often when battery low, It once took 44 pics in like 5 seconds!

Hi everyone,
The wired problem is every time I press that button, it won't show my emergency info but reboot my phone signal(signal bar will be empty with a "x" then come back automatically). It worked before, and I think this happened after I rooted my phone with Magisk.

Any ideas about this? Thanks in advance.
Basic phone info: stock Rom 8.1, stock kernel
Solved: Because of a misconfigured theme file.
I think the phone changes (or resets?) some network configs as part of enhanced emergency services in preparation for you to dial 911. I just checked and mine does it too although I don't know about previous phones or android versions. I'm inclined to think it's more of a feature than is apparent.

Might be, but when it was working, it would show my emergency contact info. Right now nothing happened only got this problem (and just found the left up corner also said no service no sim card), and also no dial panel to dial 911
Hey,
I am running the CPH2025_11_A.18 firmware. I noticed that the screen rotation is very unreliable in basically every app I've been using ( Youtube, Chrome, Google Photos etc.). So I checked the sensors with multiple Apps
and noticed that my phone thinks its drifting towards the left (X-Axis) when laying flat on the ground. Factory resetting my the phone and using the Google Maps calibration feature didnt't work. Before returning my phone I want
to make sure its not something software/firmware related. Could you guys comment on your auto-rotation experience and the sensors (f.e. using the in-built spirit-level App).
In this positon my phone thinks its laying flat on the ground:

My phone doesn't have this problem. It's rotating just fine. My Firmware version is CPH2025_11_A.14
I think you should return the phone to your seller for service.
Good luck,
