Hi All,
Just came back from a Holiday with the Mrs. Whilst away, the screen on her GF2 went black with only the very top row of pixels lit up. I restarted the phone and the same happened. After a few minutes, the screen came back on and was fine.
She said its happened a few times now which is concerning. Have any of you experienced this issue? (BTW, the phone wasn't hot when this occurred.)
Thanks.
LG have RMA'd this phone. Lets see what comes back, (and if its unlocked.)

So I bought my Sensation on Ebay 2 weeks ago, and I just got a Skinomi screen protector in the mail today. After applying it, I went ahead and left it off for about 30 minutes. Then I turned it on, and everything was working fine, however, after about 10 minutes, the screen started flickering, and acting strange, and then it promptly blanked out. I pulled the battery and put it back and attempted to boot again. Then, the HTC logo flashed for a second, and then the screen flickered off again. After one more try, I got the same result.
Any help for fixing this? I'm not familiar with repairing at all, so if anyone could point me in the right direction as what to do, or a digitizer that is known to work, I would greatly appreciate it.
So here's my issue. Yesterday, my phone started to give me a while screen full of dead pixels (pinkish color) randomly. I would turn off the phone, turn it back on and after 2-3 minutes it would crash again. Last year I dropped it and cracked the screen, so to me it was related to that. The phone works fine other than that (music plays when display fails. I did wipe it completely and reinstalled Kit Kat, it solved the issue temporarily but after 30 minutes it started again.
Today I decided to go check out a phone repair shop and ended getting my phone fixed by them. What this consisted of is a replacing the display and plastic frame. I picked up the phone and everything was perfect, new screen and display which looks and feels like new.
Now it's been about 5 hours and the phone started acting strange again. Now it's a lot less worse than before, but I still get the full screen of dead pixels. The display will go on and off (I guess it's trying to reinitialize or something) but always fails. So I end up rebooting the phone for it to work again.
The 2 times it happened after getting the phone fixed it was when I put it in my pocket to go from my work to my car, and then from my car to my home. So I don't know if it has anything to do with being in my pocket, that's why I came here.
So could anyone could shed some light on my issue here? Is my phone already dying? It's only been 13 months and I'd hate to have spent for a new display for basically nothing.
Replace the flex cable. If that doesn't work then it's an issue with the motherboard/screen, in which case you would have to guess between the two, or simply send it to LG and pay for a repair.
Hey all,
one morning i was playing mortal kombat x on my unrooted, updated nexus 5 . And the phone got very hot. After 2 min white lines appeared. I turned off the phone wait till it cool down then turned it on but it remained the same. Made factory reset, didnt helped. Every time i increase brightness more white lines appear on screen and the screen starts shaking, icons and all going up and down. I took it to 2 services, 1. guy wouldnt take it because it is too demanding and he talked about it is something glued. 2. guy took it and said flat cable is dissconnected and he will connected it, he did that but didnt helped.
Did anyone had the same problem? Is the problem motherboard or the screen? Should i replace the screen?
How can i prevent that from happening again?
It's really weird and I have never experienced this in any Android device, but at least once a day my phone will get this line about 1/8 screen length from the left and it stays and adjusts with the screen orientation. This issue started occurring I'd say about two weeks ago. I really do not know what's going on with my phone, the only thing I can guess is that the screen I purchased when I replaced my phone screen is running faulty, but this is screen I got around December. Taking a screenshot does not show the line on the device and it is 100% not a stray hair that's stuck to the device. What can I do to fix this? Rebooting or turning the device off doesn't work.
Hey guys, new to XDA here.
My phone is currently experiencing green screen. It started 2 days ago. I have been using dark mode since I got this phone last year and two days ago I noticed that the screen color isnt as vibrant. Imagine a black screen with a bit of white color. I also noticed that the lower right of my screen got really hot.
Then I restarted my phone a couple of times and I also noticed that during the Huawei animation, green spots started to display on the screen. Also, the whole screen starts to green when unlocking using fingerprint.
I turned off my screen the qhole day and opened it before I went to sleep and the issue went away. But right now, the screen would randomly flicker and display green color.
Im not sure if this is a display issue. But I have read that Mate 20 suffers this as well. I wanted to ask here first before I bring this to the service center.
Anyone experiencing this as well? How did you fix it?
Thanks!
Ok, so my phone is experiencing the greenscreen right now and I dont think it will disappear anytime soon. I did, however, install the Device Info HW app on my phone. There is this 'shell_back' on the 'Thermal' tab that had risen to 41 degrees. Any idea what that is?
