You guys know when an HBO presentation starts on TV they start with a TV Noise.
Well, I have now the same screen on my N5

}
Taking a screenshot with the built-in function, I get everything correctly
(Actually, quite difficult to unlock the pattern when can't see anything)
The phone is rooted, TWRP 2.7.1.1 installed, Stock ROM, KitKat 4.4.4
Could be co-incident, but the problems started short after installing KitKat 4.4.4
When updating to 4.4.4, I only flashed Radio, System and Boot.
I didn't flash Cache and Bootloader (basically because Bootloader same as previous).
Is the problem related to not flashing cache and bootloader or a hardware problem of the glass?
Sometimes, if I don't touch the mobile, the screen returns to normal, but now, even when I boot to the bootloader, I still have the "HBO Screen"
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Cheers
Tom
I love the fact you've called it the HBO Screen. Real Imaginative!
However, unfortunately, it's a hardware issue. The screen or the Flex cable have gone bad and it/they needs to be replaced.
You were right, it was the cable.
Went to LG service partner and 30 minutes later it was fixed.

Woah! That was quick
First went to LG, they told me they have to send to their service partner, can't fix the same day
Luckily only a 20 minute drive so I went there personally.

I always get this after boot for about a half second I think while it runs the color gamma code. It's my favorite part of the bootup I wish it lasted longer. How can I get your feature OP???

I love doing that to UPS. Oh, you just got a package in from Washington that's for me but you're going to let it sit in the warehouse for 4 days because I didn't pay for 3 day shipping???

Just play a little bit with your internal flex cable (I mean mobile ) then you have it random and longer
However, it can be pretty annoying when u turn on the screen and have this TV noise copy

Suddenly (well, I had just installed WifiKeyboard when this happened to me, but I don't think it's relevant) my touchscreen develop a dead zone. Just above hardware buttons. If i touch this zone, my phones thinks I'm pressing with one thinger above this zone and with another thinger below it. Just like the picture shows.

(Note that it's a complete symmetrical dead zone. It's a perfect rectangle)
It's strange. I was on Codename 4.1 JellyBean. I didn't change anything, (I descarted that this might be a Rom problem, I put back the stock rom and the problem persists). I don't rember any serious smash in the last few days. I had already changed the touchscreen once, because I broke it and the jerk that replaced the screen glued it terribly bad so the screen is a little bit loose (i think that maybe something entered through this space and ****ed the screen, but i don't know)
Also read someguys talking about chep chargers that might broke the touchscreen or something like this ( I recently used a blackberry's charger for a day) and that It might be something with the drivers of the touchscreen.
I had no idea.
Any clue?
Thats Strange...

Sorry!
Did you restart your phone?
If that doesn't help, do a factory reset.

Then it's broken.
It's not the software, then it must be the hardware.
Last suggestion: Turn off the phone, take out the battery and touch the pins where the battery goes. Put the battery back in, turn on your phone and see if it works. I've heard of static electricity giving all sorts of problems. Grounding the phone (touching the wiring) might do the trick.

I'm sorry you paid 80 dollars for your touchscreen? What a ripoff... I got mine off ebay for around 40...38 to be more precise. 80 is way too much for an SL.
A few weeks ago my Sensation screen turned to colorful pixel snow. After opening the sense lock ring and flipping the main screen for a few times it became ok. A week later it went back to the snowy screen permanently.
I went to recovery and re installed the Rom (revolution 6.80) and the problem was solved. A week later I got the snowy screen back, but now the snow appears the very first moment the device is powered on.
Due to the face I had airdroid on the device I managed to connect it to the computer and see the mobile screen on the computer and it looked as if everything is ok, I could see the sense and all the screens and operate all the applications by looking at the computer and touching the snowy screen.
I bought a new screen and connected it instead the original and I still got snow....so I know it's not a screen problem.
I do not have warranty on the device and local labs will charge half the price of the device for fixing it, so I prefer to find out what's the problem and but the parts myself and replace them.
Anyone has any experience with such a problem and fixing it?
Thanks a lot
Try using a blower, those that people use to blow off dust, blow off every spec of dust you can see on your device, clean the connectors of the screen too.
Then, try installing a rom which is not ARHD, and test it out. If all these doesnt work, it might be your GPU hardware is faulty.
I already cleaned all the connection and checked that everything is connected correctly but it didn't help.
Do you know where the gpu seats? maybe if I knew what it looks like i could check problems around it or replace it.
No one knows how to solve the snow problem? :crying:
That's it? the device is dead? I used it only for one year...
Can you take a photo of it and post it?
Then we know exactly what you're talking about

wow... I've never seen anything like that before. Hopefully someone else can help
maybe the connector of the lcd panel is disconnected a little bit.
I bought from Ebay defective Sensation, it has exactly the same problem.
Did you find what you HTC was wrong?

I'm also having the same snow problem on my HTC Amaze, for the above i assume there's no fix to this as i was about to purchase a new screen.
This phone is a complete lemon so perhaps it's a blessing
Seen that 2 days ago at a friends phone. No solution oder fix for that?
Received the phone yesterday afternoon and everything was great for the first three hours. After updating to the latest version and reinstalling apps from Play, the screen flickered and started ghosting a line of pixels stretched vertically over the bottom third of the screen (images and video below). It doesn't appears to be a hardware issue as the ghosting moves with animations, but it does appear during boot as well. I've factory reset without any difference, and have flashed the current firmware images (cm-11.0-XNPH33R-bacon-signed-fastboot) without any luck.
Booting
Notification drawer
App drawer
Video
Any ideas?
EDIT: I didn't have my brightness all the way up; the issue persists during transistions.
Sorry about that, you can try RMA. If it's also in Fastboot mode, you have two options: a) Write OnePlusOne and ask for repair(tooks long!!) b) Buy another phone.
You should try a custom kernel. As the stock kernel for 33r doesn't have the display commits that custom kernels have. I recommend Franco kernel. If the problem persists, then I'm afraid you'll have to RMA.
It is surely hardware.

mine too.....
Got mine 5 days ago and was in the middle of a game last night and the exact same thing is happening..... I put in a request for an RMA already but the whole process takes about a month from what i have read.... Didn't see a similar issue in a search of their forums but it is interesting that our phones came from the same batch likely and have the same issue....grrr

So I am debating filing a paypal claim. Reading the reports of the RMA process on their forum I am wondering if I will get a functioning device within the paypal buyer's protection timeframe. After several emails and pointless software fix attempts back and forth I finally got their support person to say they would forward me to an RMA specialist... but who knows how long that will take and given time frames I think it is very likely the 45 days will run out on 10/5/14 before I receive a replacement device. Any luck on your end?
hey guys,
any of you had an issue with the screen going blank and never coming back on until the watch is rebooted? ( I have ambient screen on)
everything is still functioning, phone detects it as connected, i get vibration for notifications and can even get screenshots from the watch using the android wear app.
using stock watchfaces, not installed anything yet, only setup android pay, since i only intend to use for notifications and android pay.
this is really frustrating, it's happened 4 times within the first 24 hours...

if you can't touch and wake the device, you may need to send it for RMA. Do not waste time in testing, even it is a software issue. Let them fix it for you or simply replace it.

thanks, yeah that's what I was thinking too. just wondering if this was a common issue.
I'm based in hk too lol, just past the 7 day direct exchange period so i guess i'll just have to wait for a repair.

It is acceptable if the watch is loaded with many software. But not normal if it is freshly setup. You may try the official rom here and see if it is okay.
I have this problem now.
Screen sometimes starts working at random for a short while but goes back to blurry.

Mine also goes blank occasionally and only reboot helps, but it's so random, and maybe once a week? so I won't even bother sending for warranty because they might send it back saying that it's not happening to them.
Yesterday it happened while I was tracking my workout so that's a bummer but happily I was able to continue after reboot.
p.s.
I'm using always on display.
MY US based Watch 4 Non-LTE just received the U1GVK4 update today 11/11/22 - I again checked for updates for my AT&T LTE Watch 4 Classic, but there's no update available. It is still at the U1GVH2 release. Nothing new to report with U1GVK4 so far, but this is likely an update to fix the bricking issue that some experienced with U1GVI3 "A power operation-related stabilization code has been applied."

Uggg...just read that even the new update that fixed the issue is causing same problem for some...be careful peeps.
Mine is working JUST fine...think I'll hold off.
I installed with no issues. Did get a scare at first when the Samsung logo came up about three times before it went on to boot. Also took a bit longer to boot and setup. Once it did, all was well.

Fingers crossed.
Mine working 100% after this update.
Mine also working after today's update, I did charge my watch to 100% before starting the installation process and after installation my phone did boot loop twice that scared the hell out of me, then I immediately connected it to charger just to ensure watch has enough charge left, but luckily as soon as i connected it to charger the watch booted normally...phew!!!
Just updated my watch. It is bricked. Screen is black, pressing any of the buttons does nothing. Had 70% battery before the update.
I think I'm done with Samsung for good. What a shame.
If some1 was able to recover from this state, please share.

NOT updating mine. It's working fine, so why bother.
Mine is force installing so wish me luck!
edit: Gave me a heart attack because it bootlooped 3 times but it thankfully didn't get bricked
LOL, mine did the same thing. Today I had an issue with charging. The watch just refused to charge even though it says it was charging. I rebooted the watch and all is well.
