1.
First, the current situation is that the screen does not come on while the power is turned on.
If you look closely, the light of the screen comes out, but it is a black screen.
So when I press the power button several times, I sometimes see the screen once, and when it is bad, the screen keeps blinking only on the black desktop.
No matter what I did, it was not restored, I disassembled it, pushed the battery part for a while, then contacted me again, and the screen started to come out again! However, after about three hours, the symptoms began to appear again. Now I keep repeating this phenomenon and just use my cell phone.
2. ((First things I did.))
I used the flashtool to update my stock firmware. Soon after I knew the wrong thing, I put the firmware over again. I tried to get the firmware for my country. Then I was disappointed to see that the TTA-VOLTE I wanted was still not working. So I decided to install Android 9.0 (Pie) and install TWRP and install it as WIPE. It was the beginning of all these.
Since then the above symptoms have been manifested and the stock firmware does not work even if you do anything
please... save me... :crying::crying:

Hello Guys,
I started to have problems with my wing and end up in three-color bootloader screen. I can tell you that I am not playing around with my phone. I do not even install any software not to risk its basic phone functionality since I am using this phone as a business phone. So, no crazy rom flash or etc has been done prior to this problem.
My phone started to have problems with answering calls last week. When it was ringing, it was keep ringing and I was not able to take the call even though I was pressing every possible buttons on the phone. It was locking.
I noticed that phone was locking the buttons too. So, I selected "do not lock buttons when the device is off". But, this does not have any effect. Phone was keep locking my buttons.
Last night, I noticed that my phone was unresponsive once again as usual, I soft reset the device, and it booted to the three color screen (I think you guys call this bootloader screen?) where it says "IPL 4.26.0002" and "SPL 4.26.0000". Tried to soft reset probably another 10 more times. same thing...
I took out the battery, went to sleep. Put back the battery in the morning, it booted to the OS and phone is running. But none of the hard buttons were working. It also hangs up the incoming call after first ring. I soft reset the device once again and it went back to the three-color screen.
I went to the Tmobile website, and found that there is an upgrade ROM. I downloaded and ran that program. It said that it installed it to the device successfully, and then the device rebooted itself. Guess what, back to the three-color screen.
I have been reading your forum since morning, and read a lot about brick phones etc. I tried couple of the techniques for recovering brick phones, but nothing helped. Hopefully, someone here can tell me what is going on, even though if the answer is to throw the device to the trash.
Additional Observations
It looks like nobody is interested
I have other observations.
- When "do not lock buttons" is checked, phone starts acting even more weirder. it generates keystrokes by itself. Camera starts taking photos.
- If the battery of the phone is out at least an hour (I don't know why), phones boots fine. If you soft reset at the moment, it will always goes back to the three color bootloader.
Can this be a virus?
Hey guys,
I have a really strange display issue with my Galaxy R.
I'm on CM10.1 nightly and already tried different nightlies with factory reset and wipe data/cache.
If the phone is not used for a while (sometimes even after 30 minutes), meaning it is on and screen is off, the display won't turn on anymore.
So I press the power button and the capacitive buttons light up, but the screen stays completely black.
Today I noticed that I can even use the touch screen and I could hear all sounds, I even managed to open the dialer and start typing blindly and it would make the dial sounds.
But whatever I try, the screen won't turn on.
Also, it seems when I'm connected to a charger and/or connected to wifi, this problem doesn't seem to occur.
Then I have no choice but to remove the battery, but then often I can't even start the phone.
Sometimes it takes some minutes, sometimes a really long time until I can start it again.
Usually the battery isn't drained, this only happened once.
This occurs after I dropped the phone twice, so it might be related to that.
(Though before I've also dropped it and this never happened.)
Any ideas?
flash stock ics and see if problem persists.
once i flashed a custom rom and faced this issue, reverted to stock and now my device is running with zero issues.

I tried to find the stock rom online, but all links seem to be down.
Do you know where I can get it?

You need to register and then download from here.
Thanks for that, I installed newest stock rom.
Could boot fine, set up the phone, put it to the side.
One hour later I checked it - same problem again.
Capacitive buttons flaring up, screen not.

Then you should visit SSC. They can only repair your device.
Hello! I have a stock Android Lollipop 5.0.1 Nexus 5 and for the past week or so I have been experiencing a weird issue.
The device randomly crashes. By "crashes" I mean the screen goes black, but the backlight is still on (it's a lighted black). I can push the power button and it will turn completely black (locked) and if I push it once more it turns lighted black again.
To get the device back into usable state I have to keep the power button pressed until the phone resets. Sometimes I keep it pushed for a full minute and nothing happens, sometimes 10 seconds are enough. Sometimes it will go through the "Google" logo and then stay in the lighted black state until I finally manage to reboot it again. Sometimes it crashes again right after it boots up.
It's weird because a lot of the times it's ok throughout the day and then when I go out in the evening, I take it out of the pocket and I see it crashed. Sometimes it crashes while I actually use it.
Last night it started doing something else: instead of lighted black, the screen is filled with static noise. It doesn't move or anything, it's a still image. Today, when a crash like that occurred, the screen glitched first (random lines on the screen, some parts got moved, really weird). I will get some photos if it happens again.
The problem is that I can't identify what's causing it. There is no particular app or action that I do / use that triggers this. It also doesn't seem to be movement-based, as it sometimes happens while it's sitting still on a table.
I updated to 5.0.1 about a day before this started happening, but I'm still not sure if it's software or hardware-based.
I tried a factory reset and booting into safe mode, none of these helped. I will only consider flashing a custom ROM as a final resort, because I'm not sure if it voids the warranty.
PS: the device is still under warranty, but I'm away for the holidays and will be until the beginning of the next year. And I'd like to have a usable device, especially while I'll be on the road.

I have none of your issues, try booting the device in safe mode and see if the problems still occure. It must be a or multiple downloaded apps that are causing your issues. Or try a data factory reset and restore/download your apps one by one amd try to identify the culpritt.

I said in the post that I tried both of those things. The crash occurred seconds after booting in safe mode and factory reset did not help either.

Flashing the 5.0.1 factory image in fastboot should fix your issues. Or try flashing system.img first, maybe thats enough.
Same issues with my Nexus 5

My phone had an issue with the screen. I went to the LG service and they replaced the screen entirely, so that's that.
again and again...
i'm in the same case... I don't have any clues or solutions, i'm just wainting like a dumb... I don't know what to do, i always have to make the thing with the power button and the lower sound button to make it show the boot screen, but it glitch after few seconds... PLS HALP
Hi,
A month ago, first time screen of my S8 plus (15 months old) went black, i can see the phone is working fine apart from screen, tried force restart, every button combinations available on other forums, nothing worked. After like 10, hours screen went on by itself. It lasted a week and screen went off again. Again same thing, it went back on by it self after few hours. I though it might be the corrupt software, so i flashed the factory rom. But no luck. This cycle kept going on for a month.
Now since last week, screen went dead, not turning back on. I can connect the phone to screen via smart view (Bixby voice helps there surprisingly), and see everything else works fine.
Phone is out of warranty, so i cannt just go to samsung and get a replacement.
Does anyone have any idea, what is going on, and if they have face any similar issue and what to do with it.
Also, one weird thing. I dont know if its related to the issue but I noticed every time after i factory reset or flashed stock rom, some random files start downloading itself via download manager and every time i tap to look for the name or info, it just disappears, tried to find it among apps and file, nothing can be found.
First off, my google pixel is 100% stock. Last night when I went to bed, I had no issues with my phone. I woke up in the middle of the night because the screen was on and very bright. It was the white google boot screen, but with a bunch of corrupted text sporadically over it, and it was stuck there. I held down the power button to reboot, but when it did it would get to my unlock screen, but be frozen there. After about 5 seconds on that screen, it would reboot itself, and just continue that over and over. I tried holding down the volume down button to get into the bootloader, but when I go into recover mode, it just gives me the logo of the green android guy with a red triangle exclamation point on it and it says "no command" below it. So I reboot, and the only way to stop the boot cycle is to to back into the boot loader and select shutdown, so that way it will stay off.
Any words of wisdom? I was really not looking to get a new phone at this point...
I'll add that I used the instructions here to try to apply a rescue OTA using ADB according to these instructions: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz6x7k-VkpUJMlZ1aEliVnhMOHM/view. It completed successfully, but didn't make any improvement on the situation.
Update #2: I ended up trying to do a factory reset from recovery mode and that also doesn't seem to have helped.
Did you try installing a more recent OTA than what you originally had?
I already had the most recent OTA so I can't get a more recent one.
Try again in a few days when the February update is released. If it still doesn't work, it's possible a memory chip got fried.
If you're in the US, look up your nearest uBreakiFix location. They handle all Pixel warranties in the US. There are a number of reports in various threads of people getting their phone repaired for free, even outside of warranty.
I am in the US, but the nearest location for me is about 1.5 hours away. I guess I could give them a call to find out if it's worth the drive.
Why do you think a new OTA update would help where an old one wouldn't?
Is there any way I can flash the full image without having previously unlocked the bootloader?
Well i am experiencing the same problem on temporary basis since 2-3 days and the problem seems to be with the power button. I get it fix when i take it out of the body cover and try to clear the dust around power button and seems to fix it but it still happens in the morning or at night at home.
