Anyone have their screen blink/flick on startup, on when you see sense rings for unlock. This doesnt happened all the time but you will notice it once awhile.
Is this hardware issue or software? Its not custome Rom I'm running. I tested out other and it sometime occur. On HTC One X it mention about this also.
Any input would be helpful. I don't like to flash Rom all over too see what caused it.

I had an issue with Apex launcher. Every time I would select a folder on the home screen, the screen would pixilate, tile and flicker, not in that particular order. I uninstalled Apex and now everything is fine.
I read that the type of screen used on the One S has a type of matrix pixel or something that can be seen by a trained eye. Could that be what you are seeing.
hTc One S
I've been testing with this flickering. It noticeable if I restart my phone and look at the screen before the "sense ring" pop up. The screen will flick once. This occur on stock, custome Rom so I might think the hardware is acting up. This issued is known on HTC One X.
I restore back to stock Rom and move between app it also flick. Messed with brightness seen to help, but once I select auto brightness it come right back.
Man I'm not happy

Talked to Htc rep. they might consider the display went bad. Usually, the screen shouldn't blink. Even when I reopen an app..it still flicker and turn black screen.
Next steps called back Tmobile and demand a exchange because I'm not happy with my $600 phones..that blink like strobe lights
Maybe I should never buy the first patch that released on launch day. LOL
Sooo... mine started doing something weird this morning...
Is it anything like yours is doing?

Well it was weird, it was fine last night, even had done a backup on clockwork. took it off the charger this morning and restarted it. looked at it later and half the screen was like that. I restarted the phone again and it only did what you saw, tried restart couple times still came back but later on as I was finally leaving home I was texting someone and it just went away?? tried restarting it again nothing... not coming back?? no idea why. I did see on youtube another person with a one X doing the full screen like that, SCary.
I would return it but I'm rooted 2 months in and had to buy from someone else's upgrade so I'm not even sure what they'll tell me if I take it to the store or talk to HTC
I got replacement from T-Mobile since there 90 days exchange warranty and guess what? My screen still does it. I went ahead called HTC for advice and rep. Told me it just parts of O.S.
For yours side, if you sent to HTC for a repair. They might check if you tamper with phone and will charge extra :what:..
Hopefully it won't do it.

only once in a while, when on lowest brightness, the screen would flash up very bright, after pressing the on button but than goes back to set low brightness.
Don't have an Issue like in your video
I've reverted the phone back to stock, not only does it still do it, but it was doing it while on the restoring mode. I've called T-Mobile, they are sending me a new phone. Unfortunately now I will be getting a refurbished phone. Pretty unnoying.... Hope its not defective too in some ways.

my screen will have a black square in the top left that will occasionally flicker only on the home screen when I swipe through. Does anyone have this specifically? Really hope there is a fix, it is quite an annoyance.

I have the same issue, but in a bigger area. I noticed that it happens when the screen is too cold.
First time it happened was when I was taking some pictures outdoors and it was under 0°C and snowing.
Second time also outdoors, strong cold wind, but above 0°C.
Don't know if this is really the cause, but it always happens under these conditions.

Mine originally started on a random morning, I live in Cali and phone usually on my bed so granted it's not under the blanket I'd imagine it stays fairly warm at nights. tho I had touched the screen with wet hands before and I've always been curious if that would have done it. I did since get a replacement which I haven't babied as much as the original one, it's been few months and seems to handle itself fine now (crossing fingers).
But if it happened once, it will happen again, mine came and went couple times, here is couple vids of the way it got... but eventually instead making a transparent gray, it was a full shade of it blocking that half of screen that wouldn't go away.

My Atrix2 flew from my hand and fell flat on its face onto the tiled floor, from about 8 feet height. The phone appeared to be fine, but I felt roughly about 2% its pixels became dead. The phone was fine otherwise but the dead pixels were plain irritating. Didn't have time to visit Moto service. Guess what, on their own the pixels are becoming alive, which was predominant today evening. I think, about 1000 of those pixels are still dead. Those of you who are knowledgeable on LCDs please explain this self curing mechanism. Am I lucky? For info, phone runs on stock ICS and screen is ON for about 2 hours a day.
Me too, but I think the cold weather was the reason, lol.

Thanks for sharing. But, I live in Bangalore, India, where it is hot nowadays. There has to be another reason.
The past two weeks I was reading a lot of pdf docs on the mobile. Is it that the prolonged voltages to the pixels brought them back ? Happy anyway.
maybe if anyone has this problem shall try to completely seal the phone and put it in the freezer,,,, then tell us the results.

That's a good one! Removed the battery and kept the phone inside the freezer for about 4 hours. Then dried it under a fan for 5 hours. Switched on in the morning. Voila, hardly about 200 pixels at still dead. Will try to bring all back to life in the evening. Thanks a lot.

Hey, sorry I just saw this.
Are these Pixels dead, or simply stuck. A dead pixel is black, and never on, a stuck pixel is locked to one color. Stuck pixels are common, and actually a certain number per screen are allowed to slip through in manufacturing, but if you have a bright one, it is really annoying. (trust me, I know, mine has a bright green one in the lower right since I got it.)
Stuck pixels can sometimes be cured just by time, and more commonly by flashing multiple colors rapidly in the problem area. There are many apps for this in the play store. They don't always heal, but it is quite common, unless you are me, then they never do.
Dead pixels probably do not heal under normal circumstances, however yours were caused by the shock of being dropped, which could have just disrupted some of the stuff in the screen, and potentially they could self heal.

Thanks for the info. I had lot of black pixels (in clusters) scattered all over the screen. The flashing screen apps could not make any impact. That idea of keeping the phone in freezer really worked. After three brief visits into the freezer, only about 90 black pixels on 6mm, 2mm & 1mm long lines remain. Week end may see the end of these too. I owe this to XDA.
BTW, only today measured the screen size, to know the count. It is a rectangle of 96mm x 54mm; 10 pixels per mm.
And the good thing it heals for ever - I hope so - it's been about 6 months since the screen heal it self, and since I watching it when the device over heat from 4G usage, and still okay, lol

Wanted to report that ALL those dead pixels are alive now, after the phone spent about 10 hours inside the freezer yesterday night.
So, folks, those of you with dead pixels on the LCD screens can try the freezer method proposed by abd-hhh, before visiting the service center, if you don't have time or are out of warranty. I hope the dead pixels don't appear again. Here's hoping for the best :good:

Hi. I've tried your way to restore those dead pixel. In first time try, those dead pixel seem cured a little bit, but then it becoming back as before where those dead pixel reappear again. So, i tried one more time, but only 4 hours in fridge (not in cold storage), the dead pixel come to alive, but then still turn to dead... I just wonder, what temp of your fridge when you put your atrix 2? Did you wrap it closely tight? I want to try above then 4 hours, but i just afraid my phone will really 'dead' totally. Can you give your steps how you doing it?

Wrap with some paper then remove the battery and kept the phone inside the freezer for about 9 hours. Dry it with some tissue then switch on the phone. All dead pixel is gone (before is 4 hour in freezer about some dead pixel left after that the dead pixel spread back)
This is awesome, I'd really like to try this on my phone as it sounds like exactly what is happening.
A relatively minor drop, with no physical damage noticeable, has caused some pixels to go black/colors. However, I noticed that move sometimes! Like, one morning I woke up and found the pixels that used to cover a certain notification on my home screen had shifted over so I could see the notification!
I tried applying pressure and noticed that I could sort of make the dead area get bigger, then let go and the edges would sort of return to the earlier size. It almost seems like the LCD has too much pressure being applied and that's what is preventing those pixels from working. That's why I think the freezer trick works- the temperature changes cause the metal and silicon to expand and contract, hopefully returning the screen to its original position from the factory!
Here's my problem though- I don't have a Motorola Atrix. I found this thread doing a search. I have an HTC One X (sprint version, EVO LTE), which means the battery is built in. Should I be concerned that putting the phone w/battery into the freezer is a bad idea? I'm guessing due to condensation?
Perhaps it is worth dismantling the phone to remove the battery? What do you guys think? I tried to find reference of people doing this with other non-removable battery phones (cough* iphone *cough) but couldn't find much on that topic.

It's should work on any device with lcd screen.. But with battery inside...., I can't gift any word on that...
Btw.., If u wrapped any puff-up battery and put into freezer it will back to normal shape and still can be use normally...
Went to unlock my phone this morning off the charger and the screen is totally dead. Couldn't unlock or do anything to it or even see what was going on, called Google and ordered a replacement ASAP.
Went through the not fun task of doing a nandroid backup without seeing what was on the screen and doing some trickery with screenshots then backing up my entire SD card.
However, here's the strange and potentially dangerous thing that I noticed later when I got home this evening. I went to look at the phone and go to a fastboot flash with the factory images and went to touch the bottom of the screen. When I went to do so, to the little bit of the left of the LED light was a SUPER hot portion of the phone. I almost burnt my finger it was so hot.
Not sure what to do about the issue, I feel like if I just call the support line they won't actually take in my concern legitimately. Any suggestions?
thats something quite strange
let us know what google says about RMA and this issue
Agree, maybe it's just your phone, maybe it's all the batch. Which batch/model do you have?

On my Transformer Infinity, sometimes the screen won't turn on at all. On a few occasions, if I press Power enough times, I get a glimpse of a message saying the Launcher process has stopped, but then my touchscreen doesn't register any input. The tablet is also sometimes running quite hot at those times. The only way I know to recover from this is press the Power button long enough to force a reboot, then everything is normal. Could this be what's happening? Do you know if the phone is still running under the black screen? Have you tried forcing a reboot, and did it work?
As for the hot phone, I've noticed my N5 does get a bit warm when I'm using it intensively (4G, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and screen on all at the same time and in use) but not enough to burn me. Could be hard to tell which component is heating up like that since I think it could be the screen backlight, SoC or battery... Do let us know if you find out more.

I had called them and reported the screen totally dead with lines streaking vertically and got a new replacement ordered. It wasn't until late last night when I got back and had the screen on in this dead mode that the bottom was extremely hot. I'll have to call them back and let them know

Yeah, no its definitely dead. There were streaked lines across it, rebooted it multiple times. I ended up going into the bootloader and recovery via adb/fastboot and all that jazz. It eventually just would not work now.
In regards to the hot part I definitely think it was the lower part of the screen. It was quite literally half an inch away from the LED to the left. Was super super hot then once I shut the defective screen off (I could tell by the backlit light or whatever) it wasn't hot anymore after a minute or so.
Is it black/white? 16 or 32? When did you get it?

32gb black version. I ordered it immediately when they announced it that day.
mine gets really warm when i'm doing a TWRP backup then it goes into bootloop after and wont cool down. i have to force it to power off from recovery and let it cool, but i've always seen it happen. i wonder if yours was attempting to boot over and over for hours and cooked itself.....? i have a launch day black 32gb too, running Cataclysm with Franco at the moment but it was doing it on rooted stock with stock kernel
I had to send my 19 day old 32Gb Red Nexus 5 in to LG for the same reason. I was using the phone and all of the sudden had vertical lines and the bottom of the screen got burn your fingers hot. Waiting to see what LG does with my phone. The only thin I can figure is the synaptics chip which controls the screen is bad. Its the only thing in that area that could get that hot. I also noticed when I first got my phone the glass in the same area looked like it had a slight wave in it. Didn't think anything of it at the time. I'll let you know how it goes.
Is RMA/replacement applicable for Rooted and unlocked devices?
I don't believe its an issue with developer phones as long as the issue wasn't caused by something you did like brick it by flashing a wrong radio or something like that. It has to be a manufacture defect to get it fixed for free.

My device issue is related to power button. there is no software issue.
The power button is rattling since from the purchase of the device.
Hope my device gets repaired.
Like I said. Hardware issues that are production faults should be covered.

I just got a replacement Nexus 5 which is fine except for 1 stuck green pixel just about at the centre of the screen. It's a bit annoying. I don't know if they would send me a new phone over this or if it's worth the hassle.
There are a number of apps that claim to fix stuck pixels by cycling through colours. I've tried a few for a few minutes. People in the comments have said running it overnight fixed their stuck pixels.
Does this really work? What's the principle that would allow a stuck pixel to become unstuck?
If I want to try this should the screen be set to maximum brightness or not? I'm a little concerned that leaving the phone plugged in with the screen on at max brightness may cause damage to the phone or screen due to overheating. Is this something I should be worried about?
Thanks.

Usualy its hardware (screen itself) related so software cannot fix that.
No. In answer to your question
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
So what's going on with people who claim it's worked for them?
In any case, I think I'll call Google and see if I can get another replacement. Maybe third time will be the charm...
Because it can work.
Think of each pixel as 3 switches.
One red. One blue. B one green.
In your case one pixel has the green switch stuck on.
These apps are designed to force the switches to keep turning on and off.
Sometimes you can get lucky and the switch will eventually free itself after so many tries.
Sometimes it will not work no matter what.
These apps just try to get it unstuck.
Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't

Hey, so I have this weird problem with my G Flex 2.
I got it around 40 days ago from U.S. Cellular.
I have run into this problem about three times now, and from what I can remember it always happens when I have music playing. I tap the screen on to the lock screen then let it go to sleep or turn it off myself. When I wake it back up the screen is all black except for a few millimeters on the top, where I can see some display.(*note, this doesn't happen every time)
I am able to scroll through the display but no pop up menus. Since the battery is sealed off in the back of the phone I can't use that fix, holding the power button only brings up the menu option to turn off the screen which doesn't do me much good since I can't use the screen.
If I wait for 5 minutes or so the phone will right itself, but I don't want this to be a persisting problem. I'm not sure if this problem is tied to the music playing, it hasn't happened when it isn't playing, but I play music on my phone quite often. (note* I am playing the music from my phone, not streaming)
If you need more info I'll do my best to provide it. This is all I can think of right now.
Honestly, I don't expect anyone to have a fix yet since the phone is fairly recent and not as popular. I tried looking under G3 forums since the UI is pretty much identical, but I didn't find anything.
Sorry, my post is a little wordy.
I'd appreciate any help anyone can provide. Thanks
Yes, this has happened to me twice recently too. Once the screen was completely black except for a bright white line at the very bottom, but the phone was still responsive behind the dead screen. The other time there was a distorted/ghosty notification bar showing at the top but nothing else (like what you reported). Then the problem would resolve completely and spontaneously after resuming from sleep a few times. I have the Korean model (F510S) which was a gift so I'm stuck with it - no returns or warranty available.
bonebeatz1234 also posted about a similar problem. Seems like a hardware fault?
The replacement phone screen was fine i had a different issue of over heating and had to return it . I opted to get another device the note 4. Didn't wanna go that route bit had no choice i loved the design and ui of the flex 2. I wished lg would of just ditched the 810

Hi, I encountered same problem here.
Is anyone able to send me a screen shot or a video of this problem.
As I need to use this to prove the situation and claim warranty from the seller, however I didn't take a photo or something when the problem happened to me.
please sent to [email protected] if you have the photo or video and many thanks~
Just had this problem also had a g flex 2 for about 21 days now and it happened to me after a restart in the car with a pinkish line at the top and the phone was completely responsive even though the screen was blank
I think it might have to do with heat cause I held it by the ac vent while I was reading this board on my nexus and when I looked back at the phone it was working perfectly
But I swear during my time with the phone it heated up way more than this time and this time the phone wasn't even hot
I reset the phone like 3 times before I held it to the vent and it didn't help at all
Using the att variant with android 5.1.1
Have the same problem every now and then, found a recommendation on another website and in the instruction manual to reset the phone by holding down the power button and volume down button for about 10 seconds or to turn it off by holding down the same buttons for 20 seconds. I find what works better though is to just leave the phone alone and it corrects itself within about 5 minutes.
Having this same problem. Happens once every couple of weeks. Any updates on this?
I think that this is a heat problem....everytime i left my phone in the sun, it show me this strange error.
I'm not convinced its a heat issue. I looked at my battery chart the last time it happened and it was barely over 90 deg. It seems it happens to me when it is charging PLUS doing something like streaming music or GPS is on. I need to start taking notes. I should have done that before.
this have happened to twice too. weird anomaly.

Having the same random issue. Today it happened and reboot would not fix (it usually does) finally after about 30 minutes the screen came back to normal. I now disabled lock screen in case I need to get data off the phone from pc ? in the case that the issue becomes permanent.

although it's an old post, but worth to mention, that It can happen to all the LG Flex 2 models.
It is caused by a heat or inaccurate voltage. let me explain how it can happen:
heat - when you put the phone on the car's cradle under the car's front windows during a sunny day - it will happen.
voltage/heat - when you charge your phone and not using your original charger (eg chinese car chargers) - it will happen.
so what to do? I've noticed that putting the device over the cat's air conditioning , can reduce this to few minutes. also, if you can, mount your cradle over one of the air condition outlets and it will freeze your phone all the time
