After I reflashed my Samsung Galax S2 I now have a line running down the middle of the screen. This only appeared after I flashed it. I tried reflashing it a few times but the line doesn't go away. Need help.
Incredibile... Are you sure isn't hardware related question????

Already told you it's very likely a hardware problem and you should return the phone to be replaced. Just tell them the line appeared randomly and not won't go away.

that looks exactly like a complete column of dead pixels. are you sure this only happened after flashing firmware? how about going back to the original firmware that didnt have the issue and see if it disappears?
i'd exchange the unit.

This seeme to come up pretty regular when the phone is in hibernation mode and you power it back up yourself. Very strange and pretty odd.

There's not a lot more i can say really mate. The message is as i have said really. White screen, message along the top and then some rubbish about sending to Microsoft, send or don't send. That's it!
I've had this before, from what I gathered on the net it is something to do with the drawing of the graphics on the screen. The advice I found was to simply turn off Windows Error Reporting so that you can ignore it. Its all I did and it worked for me
And if the graphics on the screen look alright to you, then there is no problem anyway!

That's one solution, yes. However, that it only 'masking' the issue. It'll still remain in the system won't it. All you're doing is like... well, ignoring the fact there is a fault which solves nothing!
Yes, but it's such a minor fault. And after a couple of days of not seeing that annoying message you'll find that you start sleeping well again.
The only other way to get rid of it is to remove recently added programs to see which one caused it, it will only be a minor incompatibility issue.

May be is a bug from ROM. Try you to change the ROM? I mean put everything from 0. with other copy of ROM.

To suppress Error Reporting- go to Start/Settings/System and open Error Reporting, then disable it.

If it's done this from day one then is does sound like a corrupt ROM. You'll need to either ask for another TG01 under warranty or wait till xda release a ROM.

Results - Orange diagnostics test shows handset as FAULTY based on power test. Replacement arriving tomorrow.
Someone on Orange... do me and yourself a favour... ring 150, option 1, option 3 and tell them from time to time your phone is rebooting every now and then (even if it is not doing this) and could they run a test. I wanna know if they are ALL bugged in some way or another.
The good thing is, if you have any probs with your phone in the future, you can quote them that is was diagnosed as faulty so you have comeback so it's a win-win situation
If you decide to do this and they DO find a fault, great, no problem but if you've personalized your phone, be polite and tell them 'well, i think i'll stick with it another week but you have it on record now anyway eh' and they'll be fine with it.
Honesty eh... damn, what a concept!
Yep, check out my post about GPS problem. Orange said that was a fault and a replacement was sent next day, guess what, I still have the same fault on this one. Hope you have better luck!

Hello, i just bought my i9300 a few weeks ago. All seemed normal when i noticed that when i was viewing a gray screen ( e.g. a game loading ) or anything that wasnt completely black, there were some spots in my screen. I thought at first that it was some graphics or glitch from the game, but then tried loading another game with a similar gray screen and they were still there. They arent scratches or anything like that ,it seems that its from inside the digitalizer. I dont know if i can even put a photo of that, because its not easily visible. My phone obviously has its warrany voided due to some rooting. If i flash the stock firmware, unroot it and run triangleaway, do you think i would be able to swap it for a brand new?
Hey mate, I have the exact same problem I keep thinking it's my eyes or something but I guess if your seeing it as well maybe its a problem with the device?
Do you also see the screen sort of flickering at certain points?
Well documented problem with many handsets..

Sorry, parents don't give a refund on their children.
Swapping sometimes works but usually you're stuck with a worse model and can't go back due to technical issues with boyfriend 2.0

talk to @LordManhattan (or search for is posts in this issue)
Yup yup, I, and another guy here had the same issue, and it was a hardware defect. You'll have to send it in to Sony and get a new screen.

Auch! Well.. you could try your luck and just send it to them and see what they do. Do not send it in to Sony themselves, but to an authorized repair center. They get paid for each phone they fix (by Sony), so some of them do not care about "trivial" stuff like these.
Or you can just call them a call and see what's up.

You're not the first user with the same problem.
What you did before it happens? What's your rom? Have you a 4.3 or an older bootloader? Hardware tweaks such overclock, overvolt etc. ?

your LCD got damaged
if you are unable to get to boot loader then replace it
nothing can be done if you can't access at least boot loader
Excluded LCD, is device working?
If you simply bootup it, can you ear the boot animation sound?
Can Odin recognize it?

My V10 H901V20L now the sencond sreen turns off with the main screen too. Means when I turned off the main screen, the second screen went off too, and I can't do anyting with the second screen too. I have tried so many ways ( like turn OFF and ON again both in Settings > Display > Second Screen, flash many differentce roms after 4wipes) and it doesn't work.
I have searched in forum but seem like noone have a solution for this issue.

I have followed this thread and enter "signboardtest", but seem like its not a solution for me.

And I have tested my proximity sensor, it works nomarly. So I can't find out what is the problems with my V10.

Can you expland me more. Cause the sencond screen works perfectly when the main screen ons.
You already tried wiping and several roms, so it is definitely not a software issue. If it was software the screen would have worked with at least 1 of the roms you tried.

Guys HEEEEEEELLLLPPPPP!!!
I have exactly the same problem! Surely someone knows what could cause this? Why does the backlight go off with the main screen??? The display is working, because if you shine light into it, the date/time/notifications are there it's just that the backlight is going off!!!! Surely this is software?
I've factory reset and it made no difference but that doesn't roll back to LP... I just upgraded this phone to the latest software when I bought it so don't know if it had this issue from new.
Sorry to take over the thread, will delete and start a new one if people would prefer.
Don't see how it can be hardware at fault???
Thanks in advance for any help?!

That's bad for you... unlucky.
Can you recall what (if anything) may have caused it to stop working? I'm wondering it mine went bad after LG bridge software update and restore from previous V10 (H961N).
Sent mine back and got another coming this week.. fingers crossed this time. Might update it the same but maybe not restore? or not restore settings at least?
Got my new one. Working fine except it's maybe a tad dimmer compared to my previous V10s second screen. There's definitely variation as it won't go off with my finger over the proximity sensor whereas my brothers one does (this just dims right down). A piece of cardboard or paper shuts it down. But most importantly, it does go off in my pocket... or else the wifi, sound, flashlight etc would be getting switched the whole time.
I solved this problem by checking PINs on mainboard for the second Flex Cable for LCD of LG V10, see the video, READ comments here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpeVAqgU94s, so in my case one of three PINs was folded little, so one PIN contact didn't touch the second Flex Cable and this caused the problem...
