Looks like HW issue.

i think thats the conclusion im coming to as i didnt do any thing to before it broke,

If you're not rooted, take it to Service center.
If you're rooted and have a custom rom, they wont accept warranty. Try to open the phone and see if the connector to the screen got loose or something.
Hope it helps...

Light leak from left touch key in dark ??

Hello guys, now its been almost a week since i've had my s3 but yesterday night before going to sleep, i just unlocked my phone in pitch black darkness and what i saw was white light originating from the left capacitive key extending to the screen which looked really bad like a screen burn or some kind of weird white patch on the screen as if i've cracked it, and if it were from both keys i cud have convinced myself that its normal but its only the left key! and its not at all noticable even in a little light and if your screen is not using a dark black background.. so what do you guys suggest me to do? can you guys check your phones in a fully dark room with black blackground and touch keys lit up?? and will my warranty consider this an issue and cover it? i feel so bad right now :/
I'll check later tonight, but I generally have those lights permanently off since my S2 as the intermittent on/off at every screen touch is an annoyance particularly when watching videos
I would suggest turning them off, the buttons are easy enough to find in the dark plus you save a little bit of battery.

i dont have it and i also turn off those capacitive lights. either you have to live with or go far an exchange.
You sure?
Are you sure?
It can only be seen in a dark room and with a black background on the phone.
I dont like having flaws on my new stuff. I am gonna try to exchange it.

I went to the dealer and they said that they would send it to the shop to check if it really had a failure, and if it had a hardware failure they would exchange it in one week!!!!!!!!!!! i will just stay with my phone as it is. It is more possible they will really screw it on the shop with something really bad to worry about, and I bet that the next one will have the same flaw or another even worst, so I prefer to stay with mine.

Screen failure

So... first of all.. i'm relocked, hboot 1.5xx, s-off, official ics
This morning I switched on my evo, looked at time and then suddenly screen came black..
Only sensor buttons worked
Then I tried to remove the battery and power on again
Display was OK but just for a few seconds.. then it began blinking or came black again.. I tried factory reset but no working..
Now screen isn't working, but i can hear HTC sound when i power it on.
Sensor button vibrating when i touch them..
Is it screen failure? Where can I buy new(original would be better) touchscreen?
Or I should try to post it to shop for repair (i think im not under warranty)?
thanks
If you plan on replacing the screen yourself, I'd open it up first and check all the ribbon cables and make sure they are secure. I've had something that simple happen on an HD2 repair. Was set to replace the whole screen and digitizer and the only thing wrong was the digitizers flex cable came loose.

I can blindly unlock my screen so i think digitizer is OK, isnt it?
All i just need is this or? http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-OEM-HTC...664?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item336a5156f0
Yeah....but what I'm saying is check before buying it.
Because it could be as simple as the LCD screens flex cable coming loose from the motherboard of the phone. So all you'd have to do is plug it back in and apply some tape.

i dont have good screwdrivers at home :X
i also concider that i will try to send it back to shop for repair
If they wont repair it, is possible to pay HTC to repair it?
sry for my english .)
thx

Green flicker...screen or phone?

Sup guys, I recently replaced my screen since the original broke to pieces... But now I have this green flicker wen screen dims...I have to leave auto brightness off and slide the bar all the way to not get any green flicker..wasn't there before I got my screen replaced... Is it the replacement screen or would it be the phone?? Any fix to this? Any one experience this on there phone??

Well, since you only started experiencing this AFTER replacing the screen, it's probably pretty safe to say it's a fault with the new screen.
Agreed ....I would say the screen has an issue also ....g

Atrix screen no working on two places

Two days ago 2 smalls parts on the bottom of my screen stopped working to the touch. i press they keys on the keyboard on those stops, which are "W and E" or "B and N" in landscape.
I tried rebooting and also did a re-installation of my Rom "NottachTrix 1.3.1", but it doesn't work.
When i removed the battery cover the entire screen becomes very unresponsive and if i press the top of the phone, above the power bottom, the screen goes crazy as if it gets pressed everywhere, which leads me to believe that it's definitely a hardware issue.
I called AT&T and i can get a replacement phone for $125, which would be the Samsung Captive Glide.
However; i have to return my atrix once i get the phone.
Obviously I have an unlocked bootloader and also a different rom.
Does anyone know what i should do, as far as returning the phone to it's original condition. Should i bother locking the bootloader (if it's possible) or should i just install an original rom?

Your atrix's digitizer is broken. Replace it and it should solve your problem.

[Q] white screen with lines

hi...
well im pretty sad cause i dropped my galaxy s2 on the floor(not the 1st time)...this time when i switched it on all it shows is a white screen with crazy coloured lines.i waited a bit and i understood that it booted up.i pressed the power button and the display went off and heard the sound(i assigned it on pressing power button).then i again pressed the power button switching on the phone to its lockscreen and from my memory i pressed that jellybean locksreen buttton and slid my finger.anyways it unlocked and went to the homescreen.later i was able to switch off the phone too....everything works except the screen...
Is it just that my lcd is loose connected or is it damaged and would i need a replacement.
Sorry for the lengthy description if it bored you and my advance thanks to anyone who gives an answer and thanks to xda -for this forum.
Have a very close look at the screen under a not too bright light and see if you can notice any cracks. Sometimes you can barely see them.
If you can't see any, then if I were you I'd open it up and pray to God that it's just the screen connector that's come off slightly. It's a possibility.
Good luck..
