Hi! I manually installed the Android 5.0 update by unlocking the bootloader and manually pushing the files onto my Nexus 5. Everything is working fine but since I installed it, it noticed that when I plug my cellphone and the screen goes off, the phone is acting really strangely. The screen keeps on flickering, the shutting down screen sound plays in loop, my wallpaper goes back to the factory one, and my phone is unusable. The weird part is that when I unplug it, it goes back to normal, except the wallpaper that does not go back to the one I chose.
Any ideas why it's doing this? Before that, I did not have any problem whatsoever.
Thanks a lot for your help!
The problem is exposed here: https://code.google.com/p/android-developer-preview/issues/detail?id=82
It was an issue on the preview build with French France... Google fixed it. However they didn't fix it for French Canada.
The workaround is to set the os language to US English or French France.. And wait for a fix from google
Thank you! It works now!

Hi everyone. This is a weird thing - I haven't found anyone with a similar issue, either here or with Google-fu.
I successfully rooted my HTC Desire a while ago (S-Off) and was pretty happy with it, the LCARS bootanimation installation also went well. After trying out a lot of apps, finding the best configuration for the phone etc. I decided to format and set up the whole thing again on Monday, to have a clean installation and no more space issues.
Although I went for the CyanogenMod V7.1.0-RC1 this time 'round I somehow doubt that has something to do with it, but who knows. Okay, SD card was set up anew, custom mod got installed, everything went as smoothly as it possibly could. (cool story, bro)
However, after I moved the bootanimation.zip into the system\media folder and rebooted, the animation started, but only at half the size it usually has, in the middle of the screen. I tried another one and it was the same thing. The longer one of the two also broke off in the middle with a brief flash, as if I'd pressed the Power button, then stayed dark until I pressed the Power button twice (turn off/ back on), only then it would show me the pin number display.
Apart from that the phone works perfectly.
It's not an incredibly important issue, just something I find weird and would like to fix, if possible. Does anyone have an idea what could be the source of this?
Doesn't anyone have the slightest idea?
you try flash bootanimation over Android Flasher..
Hi majko11293 - first of all thanks for pointing me to this programm. I'd used it before (worked brilliant with my own custom splash screen), but somehow lost it again.
Anyway, even when flashing it with Android Flasher, the bootanimation stays at half size. The animation itself changes depending on which one I choose, but the size issue remains...
Hi everybody I am a Skyrocket user. Some days ago I flashed stock android 2.3.5 on my phone via Odin, just to check some performance and old apps. A day later I flashed back JellyBean 4.1.2 stock but I noticed this problem. When I flip my phone to landscape, it rotates quickly and smooth like it always did. But when I flip back to portrait, it stucks in landscape for some seconds before rotating. This is a problem it doesn't always do, sometimes it rotates immediately like it should. I turn auto rotation off as I don't always need it but some apps like camera and youtube still autorotate. I thought it might be a problem with calibration but it didn't help. I'm on stock JellyBean, no rooted.
(If it helps: I was rooted after flashing the firmware and removed some system apps but only AT&T apps like code scanner,mog music etc, and I later unrooted the phone. Tried factory reset also re-flashed the firmware again to see if it might help with the problem but it didn't.)

If you tried odin back to stock, and the problem is still there on complete stock then it's probably time for a new phone unfortunately.
a few tips:
1. make sure you check the MD5 to make sure those files downloaded ok and aren't corrupt.
2. make sure you cable is good & you're using a USB port on the back of your PC
3. Ebay phones. even sold as new might not be new even though they look new. Could be just brand new replacement parts and new packaging, etc.
4. Check Vincom's troubleshooting thread! read the stickies! if you haven't, maybe something you overlooked as well.

Hi kristikoroveshi is your issue solved if not pm me i faced same issue
Anyone having the same issue and have found a solution?
Phone suddenly stuck at some instances even with non-extensive usage.
Yesterday I was only using Facebook app. When messenger bubble pop up, my phone suddenly spiked. Moved once and then it got stuck already. You'll notice that it's not Facebook app only that's not functioning since nav. buttons are also stuck. You can't go press home and clear recent apps/hibernate apps. Power and volume buttons are also not functional.
So I assume the main system crashed. I only did a long press on power button to restart.
I installed Franco kernel r73, and thought that issue would only occur with stock kernel.
However, it occurred again today, I was viewing photos in Stock Photos app. I haven't started viewing the first 10 images yet, so memory should not be consuming that much. I turned on the auto rotate to view the image larger. When I turned the phone landscape, it reacted like it's about to rotate. And suddenly it got stuck. This time, power button is functional. It turns the screen on and off but it still turns to the same stuck screen, not the lock screen.
I've been experiencing this since 5.0.1. and almost everyday since I updated to 5.1.
I'm not sure if this is a hardware issue on my unit since mine is already about 1 year and a half old. I don't want to buy another phone yet!
Or is this a common issue nowadays due to Lollipop upgrade. If so, then could you provide temporary fix before they update this on 5.1.1.
Thanks a lot!
I had something similar . When I put forward the curtain hangs notice and then everything worked fine
Meh
I've seen this behavior on my Nexus 5 only on 5.1, and I'm pretty sure, it was introduced with that specific lollibug version. It's really annoying, that you have to reboot the phone every two or three days to avoid the freezes.
There's already in issue for that, it has got the ID 161032.
Hey,
I have a G920F and the boot animation is not working as it should. I'm on 6.0 Beta and don't think the problem is coming from the beta because if I remember correctly, the first time I booted the beta everything went smoothly. I am not rooted and the phone is completely clean.
The problem isn't a big one, but it isn't working normally. When I boot my S6, the 'Galaxy S6' screen comes, then no boot animation is shown, a black screen is shown instead, then after the small vibration, the boot animation is then shown without the sound. (an the phone is not in silent/vibrate mode)
My guess is flashing a new stock ROM fixes the problem, but I don't have enough time to sort the settings and stuff out after flashing.
Someone may be able to help?
Thank you,
I have the same problem. Check Marshmallow thread, quite many people have same problems too. That's why it's called "Beta" . Nothing to worry about.
Hello, first of all, sorry if I'm wrong section or if my English sucks but is my first discussion on xda.
I have a big problem with my 5x nexus since yesterday morning when i turn on the screen there are some lines that prevent me from using the phone, i'll explain it better, the screen is locked, but the cellphone seems to work because i feel the vibration of the unlock And even the sound, the phone is normally detected by the PC, both in mass memory and in fastboot and adb. The only way I have to use it is to turn off and turn on the screen several times (about 50 or more), and every now and then the screen returns normal, and until the shutter closes the cellphone works perfectly. I thought it was an old rom problem since i had the nexus in April, then yesterday i completely deleted it (system, recovery, cache etc.) i even put everything back to root without root and then i put the google pixel rom, and it seemed It works, but this is the same again this morning. The strange thing that made me worried is that it happens the same even when I go into recovery, fastboot or even while the cellphone starts. To change the rom or do else i used the nexus root toolkit, and there is also the function that makes the screen on screen and seeing the photo on your computer comes out of the normal unlock screen ... I do not know more than do. (I forgot while this screen is present the touch does not work). I could not upload a photo here, but I found a similar image on the internet (I can not put it because I'm a new user )
