Well, my first 3d had the power button half stuck down. Luckily got that one replaced a couple minutes after leaving the store. Now my second one has something broken inside the screen? Left it off for a while after installing a Zagg screen protector, and the screen was borked when I turned it back on. It has light leak around the bottom and the lower right portion off the screen is dim. The whole screen flickers as well. Not off to a good start. Maybe I was just lucky with my Evo, only had a speaker problem. Wtf.
If you open a 3d video on youtube with the 2d-3d toggle switch positioned at 3d, pause the video (to let it buffer to full) then let the phone go to sleep for >3 minutes, you can't wake the phone up using the power button. i tried this multiple times, and had to reset the phone each time. this happened to anyone else? toggle switch at 2d position (with 3d video let to buffer) and youtube 2d videos don't cause this.

Is anyone else having an issue with phantom taps on the screen. I know sometimes my screen will pull up the keyboard and start typing. Or if I am scrolling a web page it will think i'm zooming. Or if I go to click and hold a link in dolphin it will just click.
yeah while browsing i had the same problem, maybe some bug that will be crushed after an update.we have to bare with this in the meanwhile.
I'm reading on other forums like the Nook that a screen protector may help fix this.
Plugged in?
Does this only happen when the flyer is plugged in? I had this problem when I was trying to use the flyer while it was plugged in and it just started doing as it pleased. The first couple of times it freaked me out! It just started typing crazy stuff and started navigating from screen to screen as it saw fit every time I went to touch the screen. I thought it was demon possessed (some kind of ouija tablet), but I didn't call a priest I just unplugged it and all was well with it's formerly possessed soul.

I have a problem when It's plugged into the power. Scrolling pages sometimes zooms and buttons can activate if my finger is just close to them.
In some countries like here in the UAE, the combination of badly earthed mains, leather-soled shoes or bare feet on tiled floors and a very sensitive capacitive screen causes strange tap response.
Ever held a charging phone or laptop and felt a slight electric buzz??
I usually find if I clean my screen and remove any finger grease, it tends to work fine after that.
Also, even if not on power, I have found a problem with tap and hold (say to trash icons) that if you press the screen too hard, the hold does not 'hold' ... If you use a light tap it works fine.
Large finger surface area on hard press seems to confuse it.
It happens when it's not plugged in.
My screen was so sensitive it would open apps, etc. even when my finger was 1/2" away from the screen. It was frustrating. Cutting down one of the matte, anti-glare screen protectors I had left after I returned my Galaxy tab solved the problem.
I bought some screen protectors of Amazon... Thanks for the input... its the only downside to this thing :-D
I've got a recurrent problem with my Desire X which seems to have two parts, and doesn't seem to correlate with any other post that I've found;
- quite often when the screen is asleep, when I press the power button to wake it the screen doesn't come back; I get the bottom capacitive buttons lighting up, but no screen. Hitting power again turns off the lights, sometimes I can toggle it on and off a few times and it comes back (combined with swiping the screen possibly), but other times no matter what I do I can't get it to wake the screen and I have to resort to pulling the battery. Also doesn't help to plug in power. NB: yes battery is always at least 60% charged minimum
- other times when the screen is on the brightness/display goes into a build-up loop and washes out the screen, sometimes strobing, sometimes only leaving streaks of colour. Sometimes toggling the screen on and off via the power button works, sometimes it doesn't. I use Auto-brightness, but I have experimented with full- and half-brightness and it hasn't made a difference, so doesn't seem to be sensor-related.
I thought I'd hold out to see if the OTA JB update fixed it, but it doesn't look like that's going to appear here anytime soon.
Any thoughts? I've kept it relatively stock.
A small video ? Its a hardware fault anyways. Did it fell down ?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'd post a video, but it always seems to happen when I don't have another device handy.
It hasn't had any bad knocks, only ever typical day-to-day bumps; I'm very careful with my phones. Does it sound like a specific known hardware fault?
Stock ROM, recovery, etc? Or any custom one?
Completely stock, not rooted, only some apps and widgets added, nothing removed.
Is the phone on warranty? Maybe it's hardware stuff and it will cost more than one headache.

Definitely hardware. Claim warranty asap.

Here's an example photo of one of the many exciting things the screen randomly does. I'm trying to compile a pile of photos and hopefully video to support my claim, problem is that it's so completely random. I took it to an Optus store the other day to get some sort of idea as to what would happen, and the guy seemed to reckon that they'd do what he tried; pressed the power button on/off about 20 times, if they don't get it to misbehave in that time they'll say it's not faulty!
Want to make sure I get a full backup before sending it in also.
This greeted me on waking it. Sometimes this kind of thing will randomly crop up when in the middle of using it, other times power button won't wake screen, others I get incoming calls but no screen so can't answer - power button is the only thing that responds, which of course hangs up.
Has anyone else had issues with their back light faulting? I've searched and have seen that other sprint evo lte users have had issues with screen flickering, but my problem seems to be more serious that that. when i wake up in the morning the screen is blank. thank god i have a custrom rom installed and can manually mess with the status bar slider to get the backlight to turn back on. It just needs to be tweaked here and there. the backlight seems to only like to work on full brightness, if not, it will flicker like crazy. if i press with more pressure on certain parts of the screen the backlight turns off completely until i remove my finger. I dont think its a proximity issue since it'll just flicker sitting on a desk. Do I need to replace the screen? is this worth it? i havent dropped to phone or anything for this to default. I can upload a video later. gonna use my OG evo for that which is still kicken by the way
I realize this thread is incredibly old, but did you ever find a solution to the flickering problem? I just started seeing the exact same behavior, including the screen going dark when putting pressure on certain areas of the screen.
Thanks!
I have a PJ75100 doing this, but the screen does not function at all. I get the orange/green light while charging, and if I power it on it acts as if it's doing it's regular startup, but nothing shows on screen.
I did update the stock firmware with the latest release ruu, but still no screen.
I'd really like to get this one going as it's not the normal Jewel, it's the white and silver one, and my girlfriend wants it to replace her iPhone 5c.

My phone was working fine when I went to bed last night. I laid it on my night stand and this morning I noticed I couldn't get the screen to light up. The blue LED was blinking like I had messages. The Menu and Back buttons light up when I press them, and I can even hear when someone is calling me, but because the screen will not light up, I can't answer. The phone screen is in near perfect condition, not a scratch or crack on it and I also have a cheap protective screen over it.
Hoping it was just a glitch, I removed the battery and held the power button for about 45 seconds and powered it back on. Same thing, black screen during the entire boot process, no logos or anything. I also tried to boot it in safe mode with same results. There is only one time that the screen shows any signs of life and it only happens when I first power it on. In the top left corner for a split second, where the usual "Bootloader is unlocked" message appears, it displays a small rectangle of colored artifacts inside that small message area.
I assume the LCD went out, but I'm concerned it could also be related to the GPU or other hardware, and so don't want to spend a lot of money buying a LCD if it's something else. I can still connect it to the PC, so I'm hoping someone knows how I can test the hardware from the PC, or at least recommend something. Right now the phone is ringing and I have no idea who it is...this sucks!
Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910V
The other day I was using my s9+ I had screen rotation on, home screen portrait only turned off and was just playing as round with it. About 10 minutes into it I dropped phone( about 3 inches) to the floor and picked it up upside down.
My home screen was also upside down. I'm 100% certain of this because my charger was at the top while my navigation was under it, and my home button was towards the bottom
All day i was able to get it to flip 360 degrees either direction
Turned off auto rotation, back on and it stopped..ant idea if theres a setting?
