[Q] Staticky screen at random times - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I got my Thunderbolt yesterday from Best Buy. At random times last night, the top 1/8" of the screen would like I turned a tv on channel 3. Occasionally it would randomly do it all across the screen making the screen turn black. That would last only a few seconds and everything would be fine. I got an OTA update today which I downloaded. After it restarted, my Thunderbolt did the craziness and then hasn't done it in the last 6 hours. Anyone know what it is and if I should expect it to continue?

[Q]Screen Problem

Hi guys, just got a S2 2 days ago, last night i was playing on it, all of a sudden the screen went green/blue it look like it lost Red channel or the blue channel color in the screen, but i lock the screen and unlocked it and its back to normal and hasnt happened again
just wonder if this has happened to anyone before and how i should go about it
running Stock KE7
thanks
It`s a new one on me, if it happens again get it replaced.
Got that once while checking my phone after a shower. (kept it outside of the shower cabin of course). Turning off and on made it all trippy. I think it's nothing. Just a bug in the "adjust screen to what is displayed to save battery" thing.

[Q] Xperia mini pro screen remains black

Hellow everybody! 4 days ago I got the screen I ordered from ebay and I have a big problem! I installed the screen on the phone, and the phone was booting up, the touch screen worked I could sense the lock screen when I touched it but nothing! Also the phone was burning! after noumerous tries , the screen finally worked the next day! But one day after , it had the same problem!Now the screen is black since two days ago! Any help! I tried repairing with pc companion, but the screen still remains black!!
Since you installed it yourself, you maybe made a mistake during install, something wrong got connected or something.
You said, that phone heated up. Some connections could have melted or even some chips.
xperia mini pro
The phone worked for a day before repairing. And it didnt worked for two days berfore repair, after it had worked!!
Does it work now or not?
Yes it works , the touch screen works i can feel it by sliding the lock button.
But it remains black, i heard sound about the battery. so the phone works but the screen remains black.
Seems like connection issue between mainboard and the screen. You mentioned getting warm - could have been too hot for the connections.

No I've trying installing the screen many times , but the heat was coming from a single part of the motherboard , i opened the phoned and touched it! It was burnig hot! Now there is no heat , the phone boots up, i can sense the lock sliding when I move it (vibration) but i cant see anything!!! It worked for day perfect! The first morning , heated for some time , but it work after ten minutes for a whole day with no problem! the next day i went to the cafe of the village and connected to the internet by wi-fi connection, when I left, the problem started again ! And the phone is working , as I mentioned before, but the screen isn't viewing anything!

One totally dead Nexus 9

During last Friday and Saturday, my Nexus 9 started locking up. Initially it would just freeze, and reboot. No excessive heat, just general use, browsing on Chrome. As the day went on, the freezes became more regular. In addition, freezes would come with small grey rectangle graphical artifacts.
At this point i left it for a while. Coming back to it, it started locking up again - once during boot.
Again I left it, this time over night. Sunday I did a factory reset.
It made it maybe 10 minutes into the reset before, again during Chrome or Bacon Reader, it locked up. This time it locked up with animated grey rectangles, and very loud white noise.
It's not come back on, so I'm now waiting for Google to replace, hopefully before Christmas.
For reference, S/N was HT4AF, day of release model, black, UK.
Make it two. Mine just died. No warning. Just cold dead. Thanks Santa.
Make it three. Got the tablet for my son. He was setting it up and there was a loud whit noise,then
a white screen. Then finally nothing.
I have one very upset child.
HTC quality.

Mine now freezes with white screen and loud noise multiple times a week. Holding power will reboot but a few seconds in to real racing 3 it will do it again. This is supposed to be a flagship tablet but I'm not impressed already having returned one that had a stuck gyro. The one I returned had a much better screen than this one too. No light bleed. HTC are no help in Australia so I'm screwed

LG L7 II CM10.2 Image Retention

I noticed yesterday that it started to happen at top of the screen after using for few minutes messenger at low brightness for 5mins I turned it off for few hours it was gone when I turned it on and went to youtube for some time later came back to home screen saw at top of screen video name and part of video but it's not really noticeable. Can this be caused by cyanogenmod? becuse it never happened on stock firmware, been using cyanogenmod for a while. Today same thing happened I noticed that it happens after using something with white background

Samsung Galaxy Alpha Screen problem

Hello everyone, this happened just today. I was using my galaxy alpha AT&T and all of a sudden the screen starting glitching and jumping. I was quite shocked because I bought this phone a few days ago. Although the phone is not brand new but the vendor told me that it's completely fine. Anyhow, I pressed the power button and waited for a few seconds then turned the screen back on. This time the screen was fine but after a few seconds of usage the problem started again. Now i read on the internet that this is not a screen issue but rather its associated with phone's charging port but I'm not sure. And another interesting thing is that the screen shots are completely fine and there are no signs of glitching or flickering. Secondly also note that I was experiencing the famous "cannot charge because battery is too cold!" message and I believe that this problem is also associated with the charging port. So please if anyone is familiar with this problem then guide me. Here a video link that shows what's happening to my screen

If you have the screen on the lowest bright setting the flickering will continue. Once I put it back on auto or at a slightly higher level the flickering went away. That's at least what fixed mine.

I've never had encounter this kind of problem. Your problem is too severe. I think it is related to the hardware.
