hello, i broke my screen lately and i replaced it at a lab,after the repair my screen is sometimes flickering.
i think it was flickering from before the repair but after the repair it got worst,i am not sure.(if it was it was only at the top of the screen now..its every where)
does anyone have any ideas about the source of the problem ?
or if anyone know how to solve it even better
thank you for your help...
If still problem exist after screen replacement then I think there is problem in new screen, try again another screen if still it exist then may be there is serious problem with GRAPHIC IC ( I am not sure about this), You may have to change 220 in your Graphic IC which include soldering but seriously this is very(x3) risky, because any wrong thing can put your phone in nothing.
In case If you brought your screen from online site, then contact to seller and ask them for refund or another screen
Best of luck

first of all thank you for your reply,
as i said i replaced my screen at a cellphone lab so you think i should go there again and ask them to replace the screen?
as i also said its not happening all the time... it can be flickering for 15 min and then nothing for another hour ( on & off)
no way its just a loose cable/connector some where?

Stock ROM or custom one? Cause my screen flickers sometimes too, but I'm fairly sure it's due to adaptive backlight feature in most of the AOSP roms around

Hi,
My HTC is giving me problems. The screen has become yellowish.
Earlier the screen used to become yellowish for 5-10 mins and it used to occur in two weeks or so. But now the phone has permanently become yellowish. I am also attaching a picture along with this thread. As you can see, the areas in the pic which are bluish is showing the true color of the background. Rest of the screen is all yellowish.
Can someone help me with this problem.
Best regards,
MOhit Goyal
Looks like a faulty contact from your Motherboard to your screen (bad connector, bad flex-strip or something like that)
IMO you need to send it in for repairs.
I have had the same with my p3300, but was able to fix it myself (connector was not completely pressed down, had come loose)
Hardware problem?
Do you think this is a hardware problem?
Why I doubt that is because:-
1. Whenever I touch any place on the screen for opening an application, the area shows the actual color, but if I just touch the screen the colours doesn't change.
2. Usually the phone starts displaying the correct colours after a restart
Should I take chances and reset my phone or something?
I'm having the exact same problem every now & then (often occurs when I keep the phone in my jeanspocket) A light tap on the screen often helps. Had it in for repairs earlier, but they only re-flashed it (!) So the problem is not solved
What to do now?
I am not able to play any game. I hate looking at my phone. It makes me so angry.
How do I get it fixed. Its the fourth consecutive day with the wrong colours.
Someone please help.
Performed a hard reset but still not working properly
This is not happening. I performed a hard reset thinking that it might just work but it did not.
Can someone please help me here.
Of course it is a hardware fault. Send it in for repair - or repair it yourself
I think is a virus or something else, because has happened to many people lately.
I also had the issue as pictured above.....and exactly as described in the first post.
It began to occur about three weeks....and gradually was getting worse.
Its getting worse
Again I am doubtful that its a hardware problem.
Now, I am not even able to open anything on my phone. I keep getting thrown back to the main screen. No matter what I open, what application I am using, it just keeps throwing me back to the main menu.
In addition to that, even when I am not using the phone, it just keeps flashing. I lock it and the screen turns on again. Its like the phone is getting used every second.
I think its a virus. Does anyone know any anti virus solutions for HTC HD2?
Thanks,
Mohit Goyal
i got exactly the same problem - check my photos here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=716002&page=2
i donth think it is a virus - why? - becase if it so the virus should go when you reflash the rom or flash a new rom - i douubt also about the virus but when install new rom the color issue still existig.
i sent my device to the dealer for repair and i will apdate you about the real reason when i got the answer from the dealer.
however, the same issue happened before to one of my friends and the device was out of warantee - he took it to a repair shop and they told him it is a kind of default in the mother board.
this time we will get dealer answer so lets wait.
thanks
a member in other forum advised me to use the attached cab which solve a similar issue in Blackstone.
but it is too late for me because i returned the device to the dealer
however- other member faced a similar issue and the dealer told him it a default in the motherboard.
Send in for repair......

Listen to the others... You need to send phone in for repair... My phone use to flicker on and off to the point where I couldn't call or use.... I sent to be repaired and they replaced the mother board, but didn't fix my other problems (phone will not turn off and when u put in battery phone turns on on it's own)..... I would send in for repair.......................
htc contacted me an inform me that the reason was the motherboard
yea its the motherboard isue i droped mind and d screen has changd its colour to yelow blue and sometimes wnt wake up aftr remvng 4m poket.gave it htc repair center they said a socket or conector has a problm whch cnt be repaired and so mothrboard needs to b changed.motherboard cost 8000rupees/190dolars whch is **** expensive for repairing
I had this same problem and read on some other forum that you're supposed to "flex" the phone. So I bended my phone a little (the top and bottom backwards, be careful the screen also has glass in it) to try to get a bit of a curve in it and by god ...it worked!!!!! The screen flickered and then the yellow screen was gone!!! I'm so glad because I mailed Htc two days earlier and I still don't have a response from them. I hope it works for you
Just to confirm... The same thing happen to me its either (A) the cable from MOBO to Screen came loose usually by flexing or bending the phone which can happen in someones pocket. (B) the cable connector came loose by same methods (C) MOBO went bad usually by same methods. Either way one should it in for repairs or crack it open and see for your self.
I got same problem before, it happened when the screen is moist. it looks like there is an absorbent layer behind the screen which got damped. try drying it.....found article to contained the unit in a seal container with rice overnite for drying electronic gadgets, and see the result.remember to take off the battery. good luck.

I would have to agree.

Hahaha I'm sorry that i'm laughing but the screen cracking and the battery drainage could not have anything in common ^^
Oh no....thanx...
I brought mt GSII to samsung center..
changing processor and screen cost me USD290....is it worth it??
How much is the screen alone? i also have a screen issue, the phone turns on but the screen stays black and sometimes rainbow of colors appear on the left side.
Phone stays on as it gives feedback when i touch different options by guessing!

Hello, I want your help to fix my xperia go touchscreen problem. Well, Ive searched the similar problem on the forum but what I found is about "touchscreen not working" only.. was, it's very easy to text and slide trough the screens without any "not so responsive screen".. after few months my xgo became less sensitive like before, when I tried to type as fast as usual. The screen cant detect my touch.. I compared with my friend's xgo and it is easier to text on his xgo.. its because I flashed wrong rom? I flashed one roms so far (superJB and currently back on stock with phantom 1.0.9 kernel) thanks.
Xgo .100 JB with UBL.
Open your device's build.prop using any text editor and check
ro.sf.lcd_density=??
Compare its value with your friend's xperia go and edit it accordingly. After you've done with editing, restart your device.
Check screenshot in the attachment.
Note: Do not put value similar to that of screenshot. It is just for your reference.
If I helped you then press Thank you.

My Xperia Go has the exact same problem recently. It just started happening a few days ago and nothing has changed on the device (software etc). I used to be able to text VERY fast but now it sometimes takes a few pushes of the keys for the device to recognise my touch. I can't believe it is anything in the build.prop as this would have suddenly changed right? MY LCD density there is set to 160 (which is the same as default).
Any help appreciated...
EDIT - I also noticed that since my touchscreen has become un-responsive I had got battery drain issues. The last 2 nights I have gone to sleep and when I have woken up my battery is almost dead... hmmm

I get this issue too since i accidently drop it. But when i try to testing games and the phone getting heat up and now its more sensitive than before. Maybe not as sensitive as back there at GB but its better now. Almost as sensitive as when i try using JB at 1st time i think.

Nice... because i am planning to replace my digitizer by my self too when i got my digitizer spare . Just need to know what the other things i would need to change it perfectly (Make sure my XGO still have water resistant capability). Sooo... i would appreciate if u could reporting back when you done it .
Same problem.. My phone is not sensitive as usual.. When typing and gaming, it is really annoying.. :'(
How much is the digitizer for Xperia U?
I didn't do nothing and the phone just became not sensitive to touch.. Sliding is good but when I press 3 times to screen.. Only 2 times approx is known to touch..
Help me out ? Only way is change digitizer?
Just make sure u didnt get touchscreen issue from lag. I use custom rom and the touchscreen is feel better, but some area still hard to use because mine is defect already. U could try search on google for ur digitizer price .

So it looks like a small part of the top of my screen is dead, already tried everything and no luck, The draw line test shows about a 10% of the screen not working. I think this might be a hardware problem, but not sure.
If its the hardware, is it possible to only replace the Digitizer glass, without replacing the LCD screen?
Where can I buy the part (hopefully Original, I read that third party replacements are usually disappointing, because of quality.)? I tried searching in ebay and amazon and was only able to find for the HTC one X not the plus version.
Is it too hard to replace or i'm better saving for a new phone?
Do you mean the area where the status bar is? My HOX+ also doesn't recognize touches there. It happened suddenly 5 months ago when I was playing games . However, I used to it and it is not a big problem, I will give it to repair when I get on vacation .
I already made some researches on the internet and it is not an uncommon problem for touch screens. Yes, it is the digitizer's fault.

Exactly the same problem, upper part of the screen (all notification bar). I have an OCD and this tiny things bug me a lot. I guess now I need to find a digitizer to replace it, the problem is that on ebay and other sites there are not HOX+ available, all are for the HOX.
Is there any difference between HOX and HOX+ digitizers? I thought both got the same screen.
I'm not an expert so I won't fix it on my own, better send it back to service .
Btw. I've read one time that you can put a piece of paper between the bezel and grill to clean some mess up which could get inside the phone. I was wondered that I was able to slip the paper there, but it didn't work .

yes it will work, but you can't only change the digitizer, it's too hard glued together. I broke my LCD connector while replacing the screen although
I was really careful, so it's not as easy as everyone says.
Thx, i will keep that in mind.
Display backlight is not working of a sudden even when i keep the brightness at max and second screen is working but the display is not working with good backlight ! I just took the phone from my pocket and what i seen is the display is dim ! Display is so dim even when the brightness is kept at full and i dont know how this happenned and someone tell me the way to solve this problem ! Screen is very dim even when i adjusted the brightness level at max and i even tried formatting phone but the issue remained same
Hi this also just happened to me. Image is working but no brightness in screen except some bright ess in top right corner. Phone overheated a couple kf times and shutdown after this initially happened and consumed 2 full batter chages in minutes. Now the heat and battery problem is gone but screen still dark. Any ideas
Hi guys!
I`m having the very same problem. Back light of the main screen is gone, and it doesn`t matter how I adjust it, it is always dark.
Have you guys solved your problem already? Any ideas?

Having the same issue as of yesterday, been Googling possible reasons and it seems the 'backlight controller' has malfunctioned and the entire screen needs replacing (allegedly). Considering a new screen costs almost as much as the V10 itself on ebay these days I'm going to be trying to take mine apart to see if an easier fix is possible, it is more than likely there isn't, but I at least have to try. Let me know if any of you guys have any luck in repairing your phones

Update: Having replaced the screen with a new replacement screen, I am still having the same issue, indicating an issue with either the mainboard and/or the chipset. Can't really go much further with this it would seem so unfortunately I don't think the issue has any DIY fix...
Sorry guys... RIP my V10

My LG70 just did this for a few minutes
My LG70 just did this for a few minutes. Scared me to think my phone was dying. Restarted, still the same. While I was googling it, the screen came back on. Hope it stays that way. Really strange to take it out of my pocket and only have the screen lit in the upper right hand corner. I hope this wasn't a preview of things to come. Love this phone and want it to last!
