Hi,
I only got to use my sensation a guess for about 2 or 3 months, then I rooted it and everyone was really happy exspecially me . Had it like that for about 10 days, went out for a few drinks, wich turn out to be a lot of drinks. Some how I decided to take a sprint down the street on speed that peoble still talk about. But when I took my phone from my pocket the screen was all colourful and perky. I could answear but not see anything.
Took the phone apart and found out if I fumble around the flex screen cable it work, but it worked for a while and then it malfunction again. So I decided that it was the flex cable on the screen. Bought another screen from ebay, and when I was changing it, even though I was very very careful and doing everything in slow motion the flex cable on the digitazer ripped in two peices so I went again to ebay.
Got one and put it in. But I only get black screen, when I press on the screen lights up and off, and then it vibrates. The phone can connect to the pc but when I jus ddms to take a screen capture it captures a big black image.
So it might be a hardware failure but I´m a very stubburn man, so any ideas on what to do or what to try, before I will get bold?

If your phone can connect to PC , then try adb . Hope you the basics of adb.
Open an adb terminal. and type : "adb reboot recovery"
Your phone should boot into recovery. Then clear cache and dalvik cache.
Now reboot your phone.
If this does not help, then remove the sdcard and try to boot.
By the way, Are you S-OFF and rooted??
not working
It is like he has no firmware installed.
I can access him through ddms in the adb tools folder, and see all the process
that he is doing when he is in debug mode volume down plus power button pressed. But the screenshots are black.
But I can´t access him when he normal boots up?
I rooted him, with I think ICS, dont know if I did s-off or not or if it
worked.
Can I flash him with someting through adb ?
Few days ago, my phone got screwed by water.
I have a Droid Incredible, rooted with the latest CM9 and has TSF Shell on it as the launcher.
Anyways, the LCD Display does not work anymore. I know the digitizer works, because I can unlock my phone. I have memorized a little on my phone. Now, I can turn up and down the speakers, lock it again, answer or decline phone calls, that's a good thing. This morning my LCD display worked but now it does not. There is some kind of backlight however hence the bottom 4 touch buttons still work to get to home, back, menu, and search.
Now this is what I want to do, considering money is tight, and I'm not getting another phone until late next month.
I want to install AirDroid on my phone, and set it up to work with my browsers, whether on my laptop, tablet, or ipod, so I can remotely control and view it.
That's the problem.
Issue one: I have no clue how to install applications DIRECTLY, to the Sd Card itself. I can put the apk on there but with no sights of how to do this, I'm a bit lost. I have however remembered where the install button is when I want to install a third party application.
Issue two: If I can get past Issue one, my second issue is on HOW, I would set it up. I would probably need to install it on my mother phone and track movements, since she has the same phone as I. I'm not sure however how well that would work.
Some extra information, I dropped my phone into a 12 foot pool and had to dive down to get it. It survived, as I put it in dry rice for exactly about 40 hours. Everything was waterlogged. The camera has water trapped inside, the battery compartment dripped and dripped, the display had water literally inside of it, which took the longest to dry out. I took my phone apart thinking it may be a loose connection of some sort but I made sure it wasn't, and it's still not working great.
Sometimes, I can catch the Droid Incredible boot flash for a couple seconds and that's it. There was obvious signs oh screen damage this morning as I was using it and there were a few digital lines horizontally on the screen.
My question is, how would I be able to do this? It's possible I'm sure, I just don't know how it would work.
Hey guys. SO, I recently dropped my Note II. The screen shattered, but was entirely responsive to touch input and functioned normally (besides shards of glass splintering into my fingers heh) I kept telling myself I would get it fixed "soon" and before I did, it dropped again. This time the screen was not displaying properly and no longer responded to touch except on the notification bar. I pulled the battery and restarted the phone. The screen is no longer lighting up or displaying anything but the phone still boots up as I can hear the startup sounds and flood of incoming text messages.
I previously rooted my phone, left the stock rom on....
Now my intent is to adb into the phone via laptop and usb. and making a "clockwork recovery style image" and then hopefully use an emulator to run the image to extract my data from it. Looking for any guidance or suggestions to get my data back from the device.
If not possible even a backup on the internal drive would be wonderful. Would I be able to make an image of this device and then flash it onto another note 2 to access my saved information?

looks like you broke your digitizer (second time you dropped it), you could just replace the entire lcd and screen instead of a new note, not too hard just be careful you don't break anything in it, that can be big bill thought. did a quick search and on eBay looks around $190 and up... which is redonkulous. i think you could cook your own ROM and get all your data back by doing a adb/system/pull if you wanted a new note 2.

Yes I wanted to replace the broken digitized rather than buy a second note. I was going to use a friends Note II, if I can pull all of the data off. You say adb/system/pull, or do you mean pull the system folder using adb? If you are aware of one would you link me a guide on adb? It's been some while since using the commands. Thank you for your reply.

Has anyone come across this before? I was watching a video on MX Player not too long ago, and it seems to have resulted in a permanent colourful static for the phone.
I can't really tell if it's doing anything, but when I go through the motions of resetting it or booting into bootloader, the screen does not change at all.
Interestingly the volume buttons are still working, and if I press the area of the screen where I think the buttons are (e.g., the back/home/programs buttons) I get the right vibrations. Which leads me to believe my screen is broken, and that it's a hardware fault. I'm hoping pretty hard this isn't the case, as my phone is only two months old and it was a replacement for a 6 month old Nexus 4 which had stopped charging.
Anyone come across this before? I'm hoping there's a kind of solution somewhere out there... To make matters worse I bought this phone via a parallel importer AND I'm currently overseas and won't be back till the end of January.
Sigh. Photo of screen is as attached - please forgive the terrible quality as I had to use my laptop webcam.
Thanks in advance, everyone!

Only time I've seen something like this was when my integrated graphics card on my desktop overheated, everything still worked, but colorful static everywhere. I'd let it cool down for a while, chances are it was pretty hot when it did that, and see if high temps might make it happen again.
I just had the same thing happen. Phone had been in my pocket and I had just taken it out to check the time maybe 10 minutes before it happened. The only difference with mine was I bumped into a table and hit the phone in my pocket. It does have a case on it and there is no sign of damage at all such as a cracked screen or anything. The static only lasts for a few seconds and thats right after I force it to reboot. After that it just goes to an all black screen. My LED indicator light is still flashing at me telling me I have an email though so I'm not sure what the deal is.
Were you able to resolve this issue? I too just experienced this issue as well and my phone is currently unusable. Thanks!
Do a full wipe as in wiping the entire phone and making it as if you just got it out of the box. if it persist RMA

Hi, I broke my screen (really bad smash) and had have this static on my new screen. The new screen was apparently fully tested. When using the slim port i can display on my TV and the digitizer works fine, its just this same colour static on the handset. I am now waiting for a replacement USB flex (it was a bit bent in the break) and i expect the new USB flex will fix it. If not then its a bad screen.
Will post the results when i get the parts
Fixed!
Hi,
My new USB flex arrived today. I installed it and found my screen is working perfectly.
The first pic is the same colour static that the op had.. Second one is the USB flex board / ribbon. Ebay for 20 Euro. Please remember that USA users are LG D820 and Europe/rest of works LG D821. I think its important for this part as the aerials connect here ans they are different in USA.
Good luck everyone

Static screen and freezing
Hi All,
Need help here with my 6 month old Nexus 5. It has been pretty good with no issues but since last evening, it started behaving weird. The chronological events are as follows
1. While browsing on Chrome some websites were not scrolling intermittently. This was only in the browser.
2. After about 10 mins of the above behavior the entire phone froze and didn't release itself. I had to force reboot by holding the power button down for about 10 secs. When the screen came on, it was the static screen
3. I again pressed the power button a couple of times but no use. Held it again for 10 secs, then phone rebooted and everything was fine.
4. Continued to use the phone and everything was normal until this afternoon, when the phone again froze while browsing a website
5. Since then the phone screen shows the static and if I press the power button once, the screen switches off and press again the screen comes on with the display showing properly. I can now only perform one touch which is registered and the screen freezes. If I switch off and on again the next screen / action is shown which is the action I did in the previous touch. Every time it registers one touch and I have to switch off and on again to see the next screen. Sometimes the phone just shows static and I have to wait a few seconds (30 sec) before using it again.
6. If I make a call to my phone, I hear one ring and then it is busy tone like I've cancelled the call. However the phone does not show the incoming call.
My phone has been intact and is well protected with screen guards and case. There is no physical misuse / abuse of the phone. I managed to shut down the phone and enter recovery. Here as well it only registered one touch, though the phone was processing and moving the next step. I somehow managed to initiate a factory reset through the settings, but no use.
Now in about 2-3 hrs the phone has become completely useless. I'm uncertain what the problem is, all my touch inputs are registered and processed. The screen just doesn't refresh to the next and requires a power off/on. I picked up this phone in the US and now in India. So I can't RMA the phone and I don't have warranty for this in India.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

I'm getting the same issue. Tried soft and hard reset. Opened her up and seated all cables. The issue is still persisting. Is replacing the USB flex the way to go?
Hey I have a nexus 5 32GB and the screen started to do weird things and now it isn't working at all. Its the same in recovery mode also do I think that it's not a software problem.
I think there is an issue with the motherboard. Please help me out.
Thanks in advance.

Same thing, Screen now black. Won't turn on...
Hey everyone, I know that this is kind of late to the thread, but I have what I believe is the same problem as everybody else here. I had my Nexus 5 in my pocket for maybe five minutes, and in between the times that I put it in my pocket and took it out again to reply to a text, the screen went all colorful and static on me (Red tint, almost as if I had twilight on, but I didn't). I tapped the back, and the colors went back to normal, but the digitizer wasn't responding to touch. Then, It went black. No color, the speakers weren't working, neither was the backlight on the display. I took it apart, and figured its either the USB flex cable (which looked frayed), or the mainboard. If its the USB flex cable, then I know I can repair it. If it's the mainboard... well, as a sixteen year-old who has no current source of income, I'm out of a $400 phone.
Pictures attatched. Thanks!

I took the phone the LG service center and the technician seemed to know this issue and immediately said that the USB flex cable needs to be changed. The entire fix took about 5 mins and the phone is working fine since then.
Sorry for the delayed response.
I hate to necro up this thread but I'm having similar problems to the op with my nexus 5. About two weeks ago I saw my screen get grainy just like the op and many others mentioned and then the screen went completely black. The screen still "turns on" but it's just black with the backlight on. I can hear notifications and other things and I'm hoping that all I need to replace is just the flex cable. If it's a problem with the logic board then I'm screwed basically.
Anyway that's my story. Bought the flex cable and it'll be here by tuesday so I'll find out then if I'm lucky or not. Fingers crossed.

Hey man, did you ever try this out and get it to work? I have the same problem and was thinking of trying this out but wanted confirmation first.
Thanks!
Just wanted to post here to say that this thread just saved me a lot of money!
Had the same issue (static showing on the screen). Local phone repair shop told me it needed a new screen, without even looking at it(!), and it would be £120 + labour. Told them I would think about it, and came home and did some more research, found this thread. Ordered a replacement USB flex cable from eBay, and fit it by following a YouTube tutorial, and now the phone is back working fine. brilliant!
Thanks xda!
I had a problem where my screen looked like an old CRT TV with particles flashing all over on anything with a static dark background. Any ideas
Hi guys,
So... I work as a dog sledder in Canada. I had my Nexus 5 in my pocket (of my 'water proof' jacket) on a very wet day. I received a phone call so I took it out. The phone was wet and the touch screen unresponsive. The screen looked like it should when receiving a phone call, only very dark. I tried turning off the phone but the touch screen was unresponsive. Because the phone responded to the power button and the screen worked (but was darker than usual) AND the phone wasn't submerged in water, I decided not to open the phone and just put it in a bag of rice (hoping not have to void the warranty).
After 2 days I checked the phone and the screen showed a mixture of colored, vertical lines. So the situation was worse. I tried putting the phone on silica (+ hair dryer) but no results. I finally decided to open up the phone and clean the circuits with alcohol and a toothbrush. No results. I know I waited a long time...
Situation now is:
- Notification sounds work
- Incoming call sound used to work - not anymore
- Screen doesn't show the colored lines anymore
- Screen back light works
- Phone sometimes responds to volume buttons (plays sounds) but with a delay
- Phone sometimes responds to power button (back light) but with a delay
- PC recognizes phone through USB but I can't access storage because I can't unlock safety pattern
I fear for more damage than just the screen. LG gave me a repair quote for $150 (+ tax) which is basically the price for a new screen so I am really considering sending it in if there is nothing I can do.
I know that Google gives a one time free replacement Nexus 5 but that's only if you bought it on Google Play, which of course I didn't (that would make life too easy). Contacted the online shop I bought it from but not hoping on any response soon...
But since I need the phone for my work, I wonder if you guys have any other (quick) options I could try out?
Also, is there a way to bypass the safety pattern? USB debugging is not enabled so I guess using dba wont work (tried but it wouldn't recognize my device). Can't see anything on screen so connecting USB mouse is not an option (?).
I am getting pretty annoyed because I can hear text messages coming in but I can't read them. Any chance you guys know of a way to read them (without having to access the phone and install an app)? I put my SIM card in another phone but it wouldn't show my unread messages (really thought this would work)...
I know this is a lot of stuff but I love my Nexus so much, I want it fixed
Thanks in advance guys!

Water damaged Nexus 5s are a lost cause and not much you can do about it.

Try a wired headset. My s4 touch screen crapped out and with a wired headset I was at least able to answer calls. Factory reset will let you bypass pin screen but don't do it on a stock rom because the google setup wizard will screw u if u can't type or hit skip. Good luck
