[Q] Nexus 5 screen not responding. Need Help ! - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My nexus 5 screen is not responding in certain areas. It has started from today.
It hasn't been a year and the phone was functioning well until today.
There is no such water damage and neither the phone had ever fallen.
And the bigger problem is that , I have set screen lock pattern which makes it even more difficult to unlock.
What should I do ?
Need help .

Is the same area of the screen an issue when you boot into recovery or fastboot? If so it's a hardware issue and you should rma.

Yeah the same area is causing problem.
And sometimes random patterns are automatically generated without touching the screen & even emergency call is done .

Help, my phone is being dumb!?

My phone keeps freezing and the screen does not respond to touches until I turn the phone in standby and back on. The camera app always freezes too, usually when it's on low battery. Also the touch screen sometimes messes up. I touch the screen and it still thinks my finger is touching the screen when it's not, so the screen gets stuck.
I'm sending it in for repair, because I have problems with the power button, which completely died on me. Is there anything I can do to fix the touch screen issues? Or should I just throw the phone out. I'm tired of all the problems it's giving me.
Thanks

My gf is having the same trouble with her atrix. Seems to be a common issue on this phone, caused by a dyingdigitizer.

White screen of death.

Hi all. I have trouble with my white nexus5. The issue is all is white screen. Try to reboot in fastboot. Fastboot also show white screen. Any opinion about this? Should i send this unit for warranty and get the replacement? Fyi, my nexus all stock no root what so ever.

Definitely call Google and get a warranty replacement. That is a hardware issue.

I also got that problem once when I tried to lock and unlock the screen but it was due to gravity box, the problem with gravity box was that whenver I swiched to expanded mode on and then lock the screen....the screen would go like that but the new update to gravity box fixed it.
My friend's Nexus 5 also have this problem today. It running 100% stock no root and no unlock-bootloader. Could you guys tell me more about this problem ? Is it a hardware issue?
Well,
On PC that issue (white screen + random colors bands/points) means that you GPU is dead. Probably the same thing here. Unless you know how to change the GPU (it's a joke obsiouly), you'll have to RMA the phone.
hello guys ,, i am facing the same issue,, after installing the app" gravity screen" the screen started flickering,,
due to which i decided to uninstall the app which inturn created this issue.
now the LG ppl are asking me to pay 9k,, please let me know is there a way to fix this,, dont wanna spend that much money,
Thnaks in advance

i did a factory reset and still the problem persist.. isn't it considered as a defect ??
It's clearly a software issue. Reflash might help.

Very strange, a hardware issue which temporarily disappears when you reboot. Oh well, luckily it's fixed now.

Sounds like the flex ribbon cable to the display had poor contact. Where do you live to get such quick service? Cheers!

i have seen touch issues come from screen protectors, especially the tempered glass ones, when there not made properly.
other than that, considering its happening on multiple roms, i would lean towards a hardware issue.

I want to ask you something.
Do you use your smartphone during charging.
Or play games which need to tap a specific point on screen mant times a min.
These can also cause the problem.
I too hve that problem. I went to service center and got my screen changed and now its working fine.

Phone Locking Up

I'm hoping that this isn't a unique problem just for me but this is literally the first time I've had this problem. Depending on the use of my Note 5 will determine if I can even unlock my phone the next time I turn it on. I'll go about my usual use of any phone should be able to accomplish (browsing Instagram/Facebook/Chrome/Email/Pinterest/etc.). After a little while it become noticeable that the phone is starting to slow down considerably if I continue to use it. However, the one that really grinds my gears is I'll do my typical browsing and then lock my phone, put it back in my pocket. Something we all do, however, the next time I go to pull out my phone I can't even get the screen to come on for sometimes five minutes. I can hear it thinking with random sounds of the lock screen either responding to my fingers touching the screen or the un/lock sound but nothing happens. Sometimes, I can see the screen and all the notifications that I want to check on but nothing is happening. Sometimes, I'll double tap the home button to get to the camera shortcut programmed to it and sometimes the camera app comes up like it should but it is completely unresponsive.
So the steps I've tried to resolve the issue:
Restore to Stock ROM
Different ROMs
Even leaving the Stock ROM alone and just seeing if it still occurs
I'm just not sure what to try next. There's a chance the problem could be a memory error that's occurring physically but I'm not 100% sure.
Attached is my Note 5's current state of customization. Any help with this would be very very much appreciated.
Thank you

Have you removed or disabled any system files? Also have you tweaked the kernel in any way?
I will say that I've had issue with v11 of that kernel you are using. I bounce between v4.1 and Sky-high v4.5 depending on what I need my phone for that day.
