[Q] Pixelated screen after boot logo, before animation - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I've done my homework and searched for similar topics as these but so far none came close to my solution (correct me if otherwise). Recently I flashed to this ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561705
from a stock ROM. Have done it a few times before and no problems have occurred. It's an MIUI rom and I decided to customize the theme a little. The themes section allows to change most of the detail ie fonts, status bar, home screen, lock screen, icons, boot animation.
And that's where it started, when I changed the boot animation, instead of using the default one. When I did a reboot after the switch, the usual boot logo was up, but then the screen turned pixelated like a CRT monitor/damaged LCD screen with colourful pixels. But then in boot into the new animation all fine, and has been ok since. The device boots fine, but I'm worried about that pixelated screen.
Is there anyway to fix this?
Please kindly advise Thanks!

anyone have any idea? x.x

You said it's been okay since? I wouldn't worry about it then. If you can't reproduce it, its not an issue.

Problem with open optimus ROM

OK, so I successfully installed the ROM. It works fine and all until I actually use openscript on the terminal. For example, I wanted to change CPU frequency. I changed it, quit the terminal, and checked the frequency in system information. It was successful. But After about a minute my screen suddenly locked and here is the current situation. The locking screen works fine (I had the pattern lock), I can even open emergency calls. But when I unlock it, the only thing I see is the notification bar (which works btw, clock, wifi , all the icons are there, I can slide it down and up and so on). Everything else is just black. The buttons work - I can quit the notification tab buy clicking back or home or something like that. But I dont see my home screen, menu, buttons - nothing. I can lock it again, and it works fine again in the lock screen but afterwards same black screen again. Reboot does not work.
So I reinstalled the rom. Immediately after installing changed the frequency and waited for a bit. Everything was fine. I installed all the crap I usually have and kept using the phone. But the next day, I got annoyed by the music player and decided to change it again via the openscript. Same thing happened. And this is where I am stuck right now (actually this is already the third time I have this problem in 3 days and it's my third reinstall of the rom, but the first one also happened after using openscript to change frequency.)
So is there a way to fix this without reinstalling the rom again, cause I've customized the **** out of it and I don't wanna do it again. If no, how can I prevent this in the future?
P.S. If this helps, when rebooting, I hear the sound before the android splash screen which is sometimes skipped and sometimes shown for an unusually short time.
P.P.S. Also, I have the apps2sd flashed.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Got same problem
Hi,
Even I got same problem when I tried to change boot animation. Just blank screen.
But i realised it is due to, launcher app is not initiated. So tried a trick which worked indeed
Trick is when u are in a blank screen, click "HOME" button which will pop u up the list of launchers u have. Click One of them though they r not visible
Voilaa!!! Your screen is back

[Q] Nexus 7 acting VERY strange

Okay people, I've got a very ****ty situation with my N7 Wifi. I have multirom installed with stock 4.2.2 and AOKP JB-MR1 build 6. It won't react when I try to boot, and when I can boot it will hang on the Google bootlogo most of the time, but when it doesn't, and I boot into AOKP, it gives me the bootanimation, but then I get some sort of grey screen with horizontal bars. At first I thought my GPU might be fried, but when I boot into stock, everything works, except it turns off right after it boots because of an empty battery, even when my battery is full.
The device also doesn't show up in adb for some reason, not even when it's in bootloader.
If anybody has some sort of solution, answer, tip, hint, potato, that'd be great.

[Q] Black screen on boot

Hi there,
I've been a lurker of xda for a while, but I have a question that I haven't been able to resolve since googling for about two hours or so.
I have a Nexus 5 on stock 5.1, rooted.
I changed my bootanimation.zip, and in the second stage of booting, where normally the stock boot animation changes brightness, the screen goes black. How can I make it so that the bootanimation keeps going until my phone is ready to run, and it reaches the unlock screen?
This is my first post so please excuse me if I've done anything wrong.

[Q] Lock Screen not taking advantage of super amoled

Hey guys, I got my phone last Saturday and have been playing around with it ever since.
I noticed that I had the night clock bug (whole screen is lit up) and as far as I know it's already a confirmed software bug. What I also noticed though was that my lock screen is also lit up. I'm using a pure black wallpaper which works well when the phone is unlocked (appears pure black) but the black is lit up when the lock screen is shown. It's almost like there's backlight bleeding. In the home screen and lock screen preview though it shows that it should be pure black
Here are screenshots of the "bug". I'm actually thinking it's a software bug since it was captured by the screenshot. http://imgur.com/a/p5maP (Take note the the blacks on the first image is different from the other 3)
Was wondering if this bug is related to the night clock bug or a defect with my unit.
If anyone is willing to help, kindly try changing your wallpaper to a solid black color and check if the blacks on the home screen and lock screen is different.
Thanks! (I have 4 days left until I won't be abe to replace my unit so I'm trying to make sure everything's good)

They're referring to the Night Clock alone. I have that problem as well as a lockscreen problem. Haven't seen anyone reporting if they have the lock screen problem so I'm trying to figure out if it's a software glitch or a bug with my unit.
Basically the lock screen preview when applying a new wallpaper shows that the lock screen should have super amoled blacks but when I lock the phone the black is lit up.

If there's any consolation I experienced this very problem. Were you using fingerprint to unlock? I hadn't seen it because I had swipe to unlock.
I still haven't figured out how to fix it.

That's normal. This happens because the lock screen puts a slight filter on your wallpaper. It de-saturates the image. You can try with a solid red color, it might be easier to see.

Not, really. This only happens when you have Fingerprints/Pattern set up as your Screen lock type.
If you set it to Swipe, with the water droplet effect, there's no "filter."
Someone found kind of a solution to this, but it didn't work for me: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...t-rid-dark-filter-lock-screen-wallpapers.html

Yeah it's clearly a bug, but OP thought it might be a defect of his phone. I was just reassuring OP that the problem exists in my phone as well. Thanks for that link. I did try the solution they proposed but it didn't work for me either...
Solution not working...plz another fix?
I have the same bug on my Galaxy J5 (super amoled), I use pin to unlock it. It is pretty annoying. I use the same black picture for both lock screen and background pic, and after unlocking the phone, black backlight turns off. Swipe to unlock solves the problem, but I have to take one of the disadvantages : either backlight or not locked phone.
Download "klwp live wallpaper maker" from playstore and make a all black wallpaper . Save it go to settings ---> background/wallpaper, set KLWP as lockscreen and wallpaper/background.
Not solved? are u using xposed? if so, download Bright Lockscreen and see if this helps.

Question Stock Boot Animation Plays Twice

So it's just like the title says. I restart my phone, and it will get to the animation and almost make it all the way through it. I'll see the "Google" which transitions into the Monet-colored "G". Normally that would be it. It would stay on the Monet G and a little progress bar would appear under the G until it booted to homescreen. But now it's doing this new thing where it will get to the Monet G, then start over again. Back to the whole "Google", then Monet transition to the "G". And I'm not sure why. I haven't done anything different. This just started to happen in the last few days that I've noticed. I don't restart my phone every day and I also don't stare at it while it's booting to see something I've seen a thousand times either. So at most it's been maybe a week since it's began. And I updated way before that. I'm on TQ1A.230105.002.
Other than it just being strange, I have no other issues. Guess I'm just wondering if this happened to anyone else? Or if anyone knows the cause and how to fix it?
