Status bars opens/closes by itself - Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers

I have an issue with my note 10 unlocked - the status bar randomly opens and closes repeatedly by itself. It happens even when it's sitting on the table if the screen is unlocked. Factory screen protector on it. Does I with and without Case on. Anyone else? Any tips to fix?

Your phone is haunted. Run...
Maybe an unlucky bug. Have u tried to factory reset the phone ?
I have never heard of this problem before but I would factory reset and if it still does it then I would get it exchanged with new device.

well i tried safe mode, factory reset, and pulling factory screen protector off. status bar still randomly opens and closes on its own. Wierd because it just started doing it 2 days after i got it. Guess ill be returning it to get a new one

Stuck pixels...very strange

So something really weird just happened.
I had my phone charging. When i pick it up, i notice that there's a portion of the screen thats stuck.
It shows the left and right soft keys from the home screen and some of the tf3d icons. At first i tought it was the phone lagging or stuck. But even after a soft reset, taking taking the battery out, and even hard resetting, my screen still showed the left and right soft keys and the icons. I can even see them in the splash screen.
Very bizarre. I contemplated flashing stock os and spl, and try to get a replacement. But about 20 minutes later, it slowly disappeared.
I wish i could have taken a picture just to show you.

something similar happend to me.. it was after i was using you tube some of the pixels on my home screen where still red and white like where the youtube logo normaly is.. i tried a few thigns but lukly mine went back to normal after a soft reset.. but it hasnt happend again since.. hows ur battery life. cuz wow mine is not good.. im always carryin a car charger and charge it at home as much as possible bc i dont want to be stuck with out a phone when im out
Same here, it could be the software driver for the LCD screen. It doesn't refresh the pixels sometimes and we get this ghost image for a while...

Just got my M8, screen not powering on sometimes

So I just left sprint for Verizon and got the M8. It was the last one in the area too, but the rep drove 20 miles to pick up the second one for my fiance. 5 times since I got it this afternoon the screen failed to power on when I used the power button or double screen tap. I had to do the pwr/vol button reboot to get my display working. One time was after a phone call. Has anyone else had this problem? I got the phone charging now, I don't know if a reset the phone it will fix it or if this is a hardware issue. If it's hardware I can't exchange it until they get more in. Any input if it's worth it trying a factory reset?
Try a factory reset. Don't think it will fix it but why not try it. When you double tap the screen, does it vibrate even though the screen doesn't come on?
Sent from my S-Off HTC One M8
Well I did a factory reset from the fastboot screen and it did it again after getting off a phone call. Guess I'll be getting it swapped out. I have horrible luck with these things.

S6 Screen Glitched/Broken?

Hey guys. My wife's s6 just did something really weird and I have no idea how to fix it. Her screen seems to be glitched or messed up. I don't know how to describe it. When ever I turn the phone on the screen turns on for 2 secs but all the words and images are all over the screen and then the scree shuts off but the applications are still usable. I tried doing a restart but didn't work and I then tried upgrading it but also didn't work. I tried to kinda mess with the brightness but still nothing. We just got this phone like 3 weeks ago and it was working fine up to 20 mins ago. She hasn't dropped it or done any water damage. Can anyone please help me to see what is going on with this phone.
I cant provide photos because i am new user. If anyone know how i can get around this without posting 10 times let me know so i can show you the screen of my wifes phone. I posted a similar help post on android central with pictures if you need to see the screen.
You can try a full reset 1st. If it still persists then its most likely a factory defect. Return your S6 back to Samsung for warranty replacement.

Hi, Please try the following,
1. Open the dialer and hit *#0*#
2. There will be different color options like red/green/blue. select each one by one and check whether the issue comes up somehow.
3. Then try using the phone in safe mode/factory reset.
If the issue still persists, then it is likely to be a hardware issue and please get it checked with samsung as soon as possible. :good:

Black screen OnePlus 6

Hi,
I got my new Onelus 6 five days ago, and i installed the latest updates (ONEPLUS A6003_22_180614).
For the last three days, i've had issues with the screen going black. When i lock it and then try to unlock it, the screen doesn't switch back on, it keeps being dark.
I tried to reboot it several times (Volume button + power) but the screen is still black. The phones vibrates and the LED works but the screen doesn't.
I tried to remove the SIM card, but the problem is still here.
Sometimes after 100 trials, the reboot works, but the problem comes back as soon as i try to unlock it.
Do you know where this bug might come from ? Firmware problem or phone problem ?
I really don't know what to do... I hope you'll be able to help me !
Thank you
Sounds like you should contact OnePlus and it may be a defective phone. Maybe have to RMA it and have it replaced.

Have you tried a factory reset,or using the msmdownloadtool
My phone is brand new, I don't think a factory reset would change anything, does it ?
I want to see what OnePlus support can do for me before trying anything with softwares on my phone ! (I don't want to loose warranty)

I had a similar issue within a day of getting the phone. Nothing worked and had to send for replacement.
Try to reset to the factory settings. If this can't help you, refer to the service center or to shop where you bought the phone.
Hello. I'm having the same problem. Bought my phone couple days ago and it runs ONEPLUS A6003_22_180713. Don't know what to do sinse there is no OnePlus service centre in my city. Have your problem been solved? Have you done anything special?
Hi,
Unfortunately I had to send it back to the website where i bought it. I have been refunded, and i bought a galaxy S9+ (cheaper than the OnePlus 6 i got)
Even i got the same issue since Pie update.
Had rooted when it was on Oreo, when Pie (OOS 9.0) update came, it came with a new issue. Whenever I unlocked the phone, the screen would flash with blue lines and black background multiple times then show the lockscreen. And now with OOS 9.0.2 the issue went even more drastic, the screen kept on flashing while using apps. Even forced reboot didn't solve the problem. I had to power it off and leave it aside in nighttime. The issue has decreased but the lockscreen flashing still exists.
Temporary fix - https://thedroidguy.com/2018/07/how-to-fix-oneplus-6-that-wont-turn-on-easy-fix-1087099
If the issue increases, then I would restore Oreo ROM and relock the bootloader.
I need help tooo!

Best solution is to keep the screen ON always. Or else that flashing bug will keep recurring.
But this is a temporary fix and not all would like to keep it Always ON
Same here from 3 days ago. OX 9.0.2
The phone hangs, No respond and must hard-restart the thing.
Same issue here,since the past 2 weeks.The phone screen keeps flashing when the phone is locked and even restarting the thing 20 times doesn't make the phone start.The LEDs work fine,the phone receives calls and messages too but the entire screen is black and unresponsive at the moment I face this issue.The moment I lock the phone the issue crops up and it's a pain to restart it every time it happens.

Mi Mix 3 Bootloop after screen replacement

Hi, I'm new to the forum and to mobile operating system troubleshooting in general. I'm hoping to gain some insight into an issue I'm having.
I broke the screen on my mi mix 3 and after waiting for 2 months it finally arrived from Shenzhen. Yesterday I disassembled the phone, connected the new screen, turned it on, and it just went into a bootloop. I've never changed any part of the operating system on the phone before so I just assumed something was making a poor connection. I unplugged all the leads and plugged them back in again, checked that everything was firmly in place, and ended with the same result.
Fastboot will run sometimes for 10+ minutes and then the phone will just shut off, normal booting it will switch from "Mi" to "MIX" and the animation at the bottom of the screen will freeze after a couple clicks and it will loop back to restarting (but twice it has just ended with an all white screen). Rebooting from Mi Recovery mode results in the same.
From what I've seen I'll just need to follow this and flash the phone : https ://c.mi .com/thread-2504118-1-1.html?t=1590725045909
But my question, is there any possible way to try to fix this issue without loosing all my data and without using a back door method that may just brick the phone?
Thanks for any help, btw I still have the back glass off (I've tried with the fingerprint scanner plugged in, nothing) just in case it could somehow be a hardware issue.
So I've given up on trying to save my data, I don't really care much about that to be honest. I just really like this phone and would like to use it. I tried to flash the phone using Miui's official instructions but I can't unlock the bootloader because I can't download the app Miui's flash tool is requiring me to download on the phone to authorize it.
I guess I'll keep looking for a work around.

I changed my display too and it's bootlooping. Did you solve this problem?
I changed my Display too...everything worked fine when I tested it. I unplugged it again to clean the phone and to bring on the glue..when I had the Screen on I restarted and had a black screen...so tried to remove the screen which then just broke...so I ordered a new one and a new display flex cable - I didn't glue the screen yet because I either experience black screens when the screen gets pushed against the backplate or the phone ends in a bootloop -> for the bootloop thingy I just waited for about 10 minutes and then it started normally so there must be something with replacement screens...I don't know whats going on -.-
Hi
Has anyone managed to get this fixed?
The screen works initially but after a while it goes blank, reboot I get the Mix logo not mix 5G. The replacement is a LCD.
Looks like it is stuck in bootloop as inserting sim does phone does not ring when I call it nor front face camera clunk when I slide it
