Hi everybody,
Since yesterday after a restart after overheating the sony logo is present everywhere and on any application and blinks a little bit but not on the lock screen. Has anyone ever encountered this problem or has a solution?
I am using Existenz 5.6.5 and EliteKernel V3.0

Can you share an screen shot???
What you mean by it presents every where???(you mean that you see the kernel logo???)
I can't take a screenshot of this because it doesn't appear on it.
I see the logo sony blink in the same place that you can see at the start of the phone.
It is not very clear but it makes a little blink a part of the screen

If you are using a custom ROM or custom Kernel it could be mDNle toggle.....
Does it happen if you press the home button quickly 4 times? Mine does this as I am running the Siyah Kernel and it has this option.
Try pressing the home button repeatedly quickly and test.
If you're using a stock ROM and Kernel then I'm not too sure, could be a screen problem or just a simple glitch that a reflash or factory reset could fix.

I have two problems in my Samsung Galaxy S3
1- When I open the lock there is a transition of black lines on the screen. The moment I open the lock few black lines appear on the screen for a second. It blinks and then it is back to normal. But when I switch off the power saving mode it doesn't. This problem just starred to appear as there was no such problem before.
2- My battery drains on idle. I charge my phone and within 3 hours it seems to go down to 87 % without any use. The cell standby is what is eating the battery. It takes about 70% of power in cell stand by. I have read on many forums about the it but i don't want to flash my phone to solve that problem.
Please help me to solve my problems.
One backup data and factory reset .
Two check for updates via KIES .
Three Wifi settings turn off always on .
Fails then as you don't want to flash the next step is a service centre .

Are you sure this is not the ripple bug? Is it a dark wallpaper? If so turn off the ripple.

Just about to write a new thread about this problem. I have the exactly same screen problem you are having. I notice the problem since 2nd week I bought the phone. Try factory reset, flash new firmware (from original firmware which I forgot the version > latest stock LH1 > leaked LI8 > LIB), re-flash LI8 once and of course with a full wipe every time I flash. But the same thing happens again. This is so annoying since I found the problem. Try a lot (ripple off, force GPU on, change wallpaper, screen mode, screen tone and everything about screen) still no solution yet.Have to visit Samsung Centre I guess
I think maybe others have this problem too just they didn't notice it. Try turn on power save mode (it doesn't matter you tick the options inside or not, I have try them all), locked or turn off your screen then turn it on. Stare still on the screen to see if you have the black line.

I feel the same that I have to walk in to a samsung service centre. I don't understand how such big phones have these errors and I always have bad luck in terms of mobile phone. I always get a faulty piece or something with some problem or other.
I tried power saving mode and there is no blinking as I have mentioned above but why does it blink on power saving mode ??? My friend too have same phone but he doesn't have an such problem.

Well finally I've found a thread that describes the same bug I'm having.
I confirm this bug. When power saver mode is ON, there's a flickering when you unlock the screen, black lines appear for a second and then disapper, like a screen refresh or something... but this problem is not there when power saver mode is OFF. Weird.. but I just turned it off. Have you guys found another solution?

Turning off the power saving mode is the only solution by now. And I also found the same problem happened when I use camera. It's quite hard to notice because it happens just right after you click the camera icon before the screen changes.

Hi guys
Do you have whatsapp installed?
I had the phone for 5 days now and it ran perfectly for about 3 days.
I used the screen sticker that came with the phone for a while because i didn't have
a screen protector(still not). Then i started installing stuff and whatsapp was installed
then i noticed crappy black horizontal line flicker the screen. Today I had a friend over
and the phone when mad, it booted but then stopped responding, now here's the part where
the black flicker gets fixed. I restored the phone to its default settings and the black was gone
installed whatsapp and droidwall and the flicker came again, it's uninstalled now and the phone
works fine.
Turning off power saving mode didn't work for me, this did

Hi all,
I have a Xperia U rooted with DevSwift JellyBean Lite v6 and it works really fine. The only problem is it doesn't switch off the screen, and by this I mean it turns black but there's still light, so it like instead of turning off it just display full black.
Anyone had this problem??
I had 15 seconds to turn off in the display options in settings and nothing happens.

I mean that normally when you press the power button(also for lock) it turns off the screen, and by that I mean not even background light.
Mine only turns the screen black and there's some background light left.
In a full dark room it will be enough loom to see something.
By nothing happens I mean that if this state of black screen doesn't change to turn off screen after 15 seconds. It just stays like that.

When the screen is on it go to this state, and same when you press power? Just to clarify.
Did you install the MOD on clean stock followed installation instructions etc?

When I'm using the phone and left it after 15 seconds it goes to this state of black screen, same as if I push the power button.
Yes, I followed the instructions, CWM, wipe the 3 caches and install. Everything works fine except this thing.

I had exactly the same problem...
I tried changing kernel (between ExperimentalU-Stock-9.0c4 & Experimental-U-12_KERNEL) and also tried changing rom version (to 7_ULTRA_LITE version) and the problem still stood until I found out that the problem is not from the rom or kernel, you should wipe data/cache partition/dalvik cache ONLY before installing the rom. DO NOT wipe anything after installing the rom. I did it and it worked for me... I hope It work for you too...
Hello,
I have a very strange problem with my Xperia Z2. After unlocking the display on the device is blank. You can see the brightness, the touch works, because when I swipe my fingers I can hear android sound but there is no picture. I must do "lock - unlock" pattern 3-4 times, sometimes even more to get the display work properly. I tried to fix it by using software repair but it didnt work, and also
factory reset. Its just so iritating, I cant even lock my phone anymore, I try to keep the display on as much as possible if someone trys to call me so I can answer it. Device is currently running on Existenz ROM but the issue started on the stock so I flashed custom rom but it didn't help. So this is probably a hardware problem and if it is, what could be broken ( is it display, GPU,whatever ) or it could be a software problem ? Any help would be appreciated.
Can you see your lockscreen?

No, no the "lock-unlock pattern" is reffered to simply pressing the unlock button on the phone. There is just blank display and light is on as I mentioned but no picture. After pressing button many times the picture finaly comes and then it's normal. It only happens when phone goes to sleep mode or after I lock it.
If your phone reboots can you see the SONY logo and the boot animation as well?

Nope, there is nothing. Just a sound and LED works, and blank screen. Then again, when the phone finally reboots, pressing lock-unlock button will do the trick. It seems like, when I dont touch the phone longer time, it's harder to get screen on. But when I constantly work with the phone there is no need for that amount of "lock - unlock button move".
mby RIP graph.. try flashtools..

It's probably hardware, now it's just a question of repair cost and is it worth it ?

I think this is due to a faulty LCD screen, but the digitalizer seems fine. So maybe you could consult some local repair shops and prove if my hypothesis is correct. But first of all you should try also flashing another kernel (eg elite kernel) first to see if it is a software issue rather than a hardware issue.
