Today my screen made some funny stuff for about a minute the screen sides are black and random colors were splashed on the screen (blue, red, green etc..) the screen was half messed up and the other half where you could actually see the UI the colors were all faded. This stayed for about a minute and then returned to normal.
I'm worried now that this is the end of the life of this screen. Anybody had this issue? Note that the phone useage was normal not even heavy and it did not drop or anything of that sort

this happened like 4 months ago... i was just watching movie and suddenly the screen drops quality then starts flickering, appearing multiple dots of colors. So i immediately turn my phone OFF - removed the battery then after 3 minutes I put back then turn it ON...after that incident my phone now has LOW QUALITY of screen. All text/letters are almost look like pixelized(not really clear), white/red/blue/green shadows appears when background is black or even if the background has bright colors a white shadows appears below and above the bright color, when playing games for long time(2-3 hrs) the screen will starts flickering again(I noticed the back of the phone below the back camera is getting hot).
Before all this happened, for almost 1 week i was playing games while my phone is charging. But during the time it started i was not charging my phone. It appeared 5 hrs after i charged my phone...
My phone was NEVER DROPPED, NEVER GOT WET.
I included some Screen shots...
Is there any other way to fix this problem and restore the screen quality of my phone without buying NEW LCD? If there is, please tell me how or just give me the link or application needed to fix this issue...
Hi,
My Nexus 5 was working fine, and hasn't been dropped/damaged, but the screen has suddenly gone green and very faint. It still works but I can't figure out what the issue is. My guess is hardware?
When I say green and faint, I don't mean just a little bit, I mean a green/yellow hue all over the screen, and faint like someone has applied super high contrast in a photo editor.
Any ideas?
Phone is stock, not rooted or modified in any way.
Thanks
Leakage?

Sorry do you mean light leakage?
The phone now has yellow borders a few mils thick on all four sides, in addition to a green hue.
Perhaps
Still under warranty?

I have the same issue as of a week ago. Except mine is pink borders and a blue tint. It was fine one night, plugged it in to charge at bed time, took it off the next morning and it was stuffed!! After a day it came right but then stuffed up again a few days after that.
I'm guessing its the display but don't know why. Looks like you can get Chinese replacement ones for about 60AU$, but the procedure looks pretty full on.
Just to update, as per poster above the phone has now returned to normal after a few days. Very strange. Factory reset, cache clear etc etc didn't work, just one day started working again.
Have the same problem
I am also having the same problem. I was charging the phone on my laptop. I took it out and suddenly the screen had a bluish - pink tinge - prominent around the corners but affecting the entire screen.
Did you find any solution?
Yep as above it just righted itself within a few days. Very strange, never seen a phone have an apparent hardware issue that's unresolved by factory reset etc then just miraculously lose the problem...but that's what happened!
It definitely has to do with the display.
i changed my original display screen as it was broken with a cheap one and since then it always gets green and pink tint while charging. After sometime it turns to the normal color.
Same problem pink/blue tint over night
I bought a used nexus5 just 2 days back but it looks stunningly scratchless so its probably refurbished I guess. Any how, I put it on charge the next night of purchase with a heavy duty charger that came with my Tablet its rating is 2Amp. In morning the phone had this blue/pink tint.
Is it a problem or will it go back as most people are saying? As long as I keep on using proper charger will it come back?
OR
Should I go back and strangle the seller...?
Hi I pre ordered the phone received on April 20th all fine until today April 22nd screen developed severe red tint which is still evident on all screen settings adaptive normal etc and also does not diminish when adjusting red balance to zero.
Screen with always on display time etc which is normal solid black is now bright red!
I have restarted the phone and also full reset all appears OK for the first minute then resorts back to red screen and tint.
Is the blue light filter toggled on?

Naw that ain't right dude I would be pissed...
No already checked that but switched on and then off no difference.
Dod you drop it? Just curious?
Could you take a less blurry picture of the lock screen? It seems strange that the numbers still appear white?
Factory reset then see what happens, If it still does it, time for an exchange.
Hello! I replaced my battery with a genuine one yesterday. The phone worked fine for a few hours. Then it started showing a white frame with a green line once in a minute. After that it progressively worsened in the course of two hours. It went through green screen with numerous green horizontal lines, completely black screen and a black screen with a few green lines. Now the screen is completely black and shows the lockscreen for a few milliseconds when locking/unlocking and now this is a permanent state. It is not going better. The only way I am able to use the phone now is through Dex and scrcpy.
The screen has no cracks and the phone has never been dropped. Which is strange, because it really looks like a hardware issue. There is no water damage as well.
I would like to know what may be the cause and I will be grateful if you could suggest any temporary or permanent solutions.
Currently I have tried the safe mode, oled saver, min and max brightness in the hope of being a software issue and still no luck.
Thank you in advance!

Are you certain that the replacement batter is the original OEM battery with the same specs and ratings as the stock battery or is it a higher rated aftermarket battery with "OEM design"?
If replacing your battery required opening the device and exposing the hardware to remove the battery, you may have damaged other parts of the hardware without realizing it.
From your description, your display is fried, probably due to the battery not being compatible or due to something internally making contact that shouldn't be making contact or due to the ribbon being damaged or slightly pulled loose while changing the battery and eventually completely disconnected after replacing the battery and reassembling the device.
Either way, it is definitely a hardware issue.

yep, if the high brightness mode has been enabled (by light sensor or custom software) since the June update.
I am on a custom rom which has february firmware.Not enabled HBM.And phone was water damaged 2 months ago.Can it be hardware damage?
I just had my phone returned from Google after being repaired for this issue and the green flickering has begun again.
More and more reports coming in.
Well that's fun... My screen is defective
Started noticing the other night that when I was on certain sites that I would get streaks down the screen. They moved with the text on the screen and it was worse with white backgrounds. Now when my screen goes on or off, the edges flash green...

It's ridiculous.. this should not be happening. I had it repaired and it's still flickering.
