My friend has a desire x and has the screen flickering issue. Is this software related? should she update her desire x ?
Always better to check with service center...
Settings, development options, turn off strict mode and show screen updates...

I had similar problem with the screen that when I touched anywhere on the screen a shadow appeared on the center of screen similar when someone press a TFT LCD screen with a finger.
I have returned it back and got a new one without similar problem.
Although I have seen the same problem (but with the shadow at one of the edges) on a demo DX device.
Hi or so that you have the DX screen by pressing a finger to the screen as he swam like a laptop screen ??????
I have another flickering issue...
I've never mentioned anything wrong when touching the screen, but I've noticed that when the brightness is at low levels, the screen will flicker (like that) if the background is set at (light) dark colors.
I had never seen this happening with any of previous smartphones, so I'm gonna sent it back to htc (for this and the hiss issue) after finishing my exams and I'll report back.
Exactly, but I had this in the middle of the screen not matter where I pressed on the screen. And it was of course more obvious on dark or grey backgrounds.

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.

I wake up today picked my phone and it was like that ( screen flicker / shake a bit from the top , much noticeable on white color ) I thought if I restart it might fix but didn't help . the flickering was also on when booting . when I first unlock the phone the shaking was on the whole screen but then after unlocking it disappeared and stayed on the top side like 20% of the display also it's less on the black color . didn't try to wipe or anything as I thought it won't do good so what is that actually ? and is there anyway to fix or maybe prevent it from spreading to the rest of the screen ? that is hardware issue right ?

I was trying out a compass app on my LGV10. The app has white lettering, etc and a black back ground. The phone needed to be charged so I just plugged it in and set it down. I didn't pick it up again till the morning. I killed the app and then noticed very lightly I could still see the image. You you can see a very,very faint image of the compass app. I tried turning it off for a couple hrs but it is still there.
I"ve never heard of LCD screen burn in; but there it is.
Anyone dealt with this before??

yes, with time the screen get "ghost images" but they dissapear if you turn off the screen for 5/10 minuts. Mine is getting that kind of "ghost images" from apps i opened and mine is on the sides they get a yellowish tint in both sides and some in the top of screen, nothing to be scared of...isnt burn in...but overheating of the screen.
Use BLUE LIGHT FILTER app (on play store has icon with a phone with blue screen) and set "filter opacity 15%" and "screen dimmer 50%" on color BLACK. I read that in 3d v10 of my model (h962) and ghost images never happen again with min o max brightness in every use.

Reply; thanks for the info guys.
Day 2 and I cannot see the latent image from the compass app anymore.
Not exploring the woods or anything, but I need to install a TV antenna on the house and have to aim it dead on 115* from true north.
That you cannot truly ascertain without a compass. From standing in my yard, what seemed like true north to me was actually NNE.

Wow that worked. Thank you. The trick seems to be to use black color. Been trying with red filters but did not work. I only need to set black filter to 5% only and all ghosting is gone. This keeps brightness high. I had some pretty horrible yellow permanent ghosting on edges of screen that appeared very fast. Now not at all.

I will have to try this. I cracked my screen on my V10 and picked up a bootloop one on eBay that still had a perfect screen. Did the swap of my motherboard to the new screen housing. All went fine except I noticed excessive ghosting on the bootlooped display.

Please report back if it works for you too.
I used this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.ne.hardyinfinity.bluelightfilter.free
All my screen needs is a black filter set to 3% (might even less, have not tried lower) opacity and I never see the heavy yellow ghosting that came after minutes on edges and top of screen before in the same places. As a result my whole display is now cooler and cleaner most of the time because the ghosting was pretty severe when the phone was used for a while.

Thanks Man it works ! :laugh:
Is anyone else noticing that you can see ghost images behind every screen?
Is there a fix for this?
TIA

It is called screen burn, there is a thread dedicated to this problem. Search for screen burn on this forum!
I'll check that out but how could it happen and this is the 3rd one I've had and they all did it. That's why i assumed it had something to do with the screen overlay.

life is this with V10, all have the same issue...mine only have 9 months since i buy it and have ghost images since 2 months from today and no solution...the only solution is send it to LG Repair Center and they change it, but mine lose the guarantee when i unlocked the bootloader so...i will not buy the screen since this is a known problem with V10 display.
better keep it going cool and avoid high levels of brightness only when is needed and avoid playing games since that warm up the phone and the screen will show ghost images. Then when it happens lock your phone, shut down the screen for 3/4 minutes and the ghost is gone...you need to do it everytime you see a ghost image and have trouble with them.
i dont bother with that...i love the phone anyway, when the screen die by itself i change it for another, but now let it rock even with ghost images.
Sofwtare side has nothing (mod or app) that can fix your problem...its the display problem (hardware).
Mine has heavy permanent ghosting that appears after minutes of use when the phone has rested overnight. Though I can prevent any ghosting from becoming visible by installing "Bluelight Filter for Eye Care" and set the filter to the black color with an opacity of just 3% (hardly even affects the maximum brightness). Stopping the display from showing the whitest of colors prevents the ghosting to apperar no matter how high brightness you have or for how long. At least on my unit. So now my screen is permanently perfect instead.

Thank you. I'll give that a try. Mine isn't that bad and sometimes doesn't show at all.

I had just did a factory reset and it's actually gone this time. I'm sure it will come back though.
I've been using v10 for a year now this image retention/ ghosting is really annoying but there's actually a solution to it by using screen filter.
if you apply the filter as soon as you turn on your phone after a while, when there are no temporary burns on screen. They won't come back if you keep the filter on.
I use blue light filter but I'm sure every filter will work even if you keep the filter at low opacity for example at 20%, it'll still work.
Give it a try.
and one more thing if the filter is on you might get an error while giving permissions to apps. so you have to turn off the filter when you get "screen overlay detected" error.
Wondering if any of you have a flickering of your screen when you press the power button or turn on the device. I notice in the top left of the device some pixels light up before an image is shown when turning on the screen. I'm still within the return window so I wouldn't want the device to have display issues down the line.

I have the S1 and have never see one part of the display light up before the rest, have you tested the screen,
Download a screen test app and go though the colors in a dark room, you can normally increase/decrease the brightness just by dragging your finger up and down the screen, check for any inconsistencies in the screen, a low brightness light gray shows up a lot of problems.

John.
it seems that i have the same problem on my new galaxy tab s3 t820.
a short flickering of pixels on the black screen before the startscreen occurs.
did you solve the problem yet?

I returned that unit to Costco and bought another. Didn't want to risk it going bad later.
