[Q] Semi-damaged XDA Orbit - P3300, MDA Compact III General

Hi everyone,
It is almost 2 weeks my XDA Orbit is not working properly. The first time it hanged-up during a call and afterwards it took me several resets to bring it back. During the system load the screen was changing colors and freezing, sometimes completely white, sometimes with some colorful stripes, sometimes solid violet. After several reboots I couldn't turn it on at all. I took it to local service, where they told me that the problem is with boot loader and fixed it. I took it back and have the same experience. I have flashed it with original ROM, both from PC or SD card, but the same problem exist. I am assuming that the issue is in a hardware defect. I know that it is the time to get rid of this PDA and get a new one.
Anyway... Is there a tool available for testing HTC hardware (CPU, flash)???

possibility the battery gone or the lcd.
buy a new battery, theyre only cheep so start there..
leave it off while charging, green led when done.
if its not your battery, i think its your lcd..
best to open the device and check your lcd is connected properly..

Opened my Orbit recently, the connector is in place. I would assume that the issue is more in battery then LCD. The battery surface is lofted.
Assuming that it's a battery issue - should the same happen if the device is always connected to external power supply?

...
LOL
get a new battery dude..
dont turn the device on untill the new battery is fully charged.
a simple fix hopefully..

Nexus has grainy screen

Hey all; I got a Nexus 7 this past December and everything was working great until yesterday.
I took it out of my school bag and when I pressed the wake button this happened:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now whenever I wake up my Nexus the same thing happens. Sometimes it goes back to normal after a few seconds, but it continually freezes or has random slow downs.
I reset the device and erased all my data and whatnot, but still the same has happened.
Any suggestions?
What ROM are you running, stock or custom? Try reflashing a ROM (let us know if you aren't familiar with that) in case something's corrupted. Hopefully it isn't something with hardware.
This should be a hardware failure.Take it to the service.
@Pandae: Everything was stock. @GeoVali99: Correct-o, sir!
Ended up being a hardware issue so I'm getting it repaired.
I appreciate the words though!
Hi!
I've got the same problem.
Can someone tell me how to fix that Problem by my self?
I have no guaranty left...
Thanks!

Not a big deal. The LCD is fine. What happened in my case when I got exactly the same screen is that the amber ribbon (LCD to motherboard) seated wrong, and I bent a pin on the motherboard connector out of shape. You open the back cover and reseat it, but make sure you do not damage the pins. In other words do it very gently, do not force anything, and monitor it all with the help of a magnifying glass.

[Q] z1 compact wont turn on, three vibrations

Today I experienced the fear that my Z1C was dead.
I went into the water to do some video and after about 14 minutes of video on my Z1C reboot, after the reboot I take another video about 4 minutes after that turn off completely, I go out of the water and did not want to turn on, 3 vibration and black screen, I remove the simcard and the memory and let some air, I notice that the simcard there is a bit of water a few hours after arriving home plug my phone to my pc et woilĂ  my Z1C turns on normally.
What could it be?
sorry for my bad eng
After about 30 minutes of running I blew it with the compressor , now even attacking the PC is in fastboot that in flashmode don't work, appears the red light then green and then 3 vibrations
after a couple of hours I think I've solved, I hope can be of help to someone in the sony site I found a useful information of which I did not know the existence, attach the button image for forced shutdown of the phone, after switching off the phone thanks to the little key into the slot I connected the phone to pc and flash with flashtool the original image, now my z1c come back :victory::victory:

Screen has blue green yellow vertical lines

It was perfectly fine for a day and a half until I put it back on the charger for about one hour and then the screen was like that. Tried fixing it by resetting and restarting and turning it off overnight. Still like this.
I'd like to note that it was fixed when I changed to the convergence watch face for about 5 minutes after shutting it off for about an hour but it came back in 5 minutes. I feel like there is a solution if it managed to fix itself even if only for 5 minutes. Has anyone had this problem.
I did contact Motorola and had my case escalated so another question is if this does need to be replaced, how long does it take.
Same issue
I too am seeing the same thing on my silver 360. It just started out of the blue about thirty minutes ago. I have tried resetting charging and erasing. I'm still having the issue. I will most likely contact motorola ASAP.
I would say that either the screen is faulty or there's an issue with the SoC.

Nothing out of the ordinary, just watch faces really. I'm so lost because when I got home today, I managed to fix the problem by deleting the android wear apps on my phone. It was 1 o'clock now it's 9 o'clock and it somehow has come back. ;( I don't know why! And I can't fix it this time
It's definitely a hardware issue (bad memory I think) and software could avoid it if it knows where the bad memory is, but it's hard to know how much memory would be left. If there's not enough good memory then it would be forced to use bad space...
Sadly I think it needs to be "refurbished"

Screen dead after rom flash

Hello, i wiped my phone(system,data,cache) and flashed aquarios rom, but after rebooting my screen was not working, system booted up and i can hear volume and vibrations. But i cant locate the problem... could it be in hardware? I tried to disassembly phone and clean contacts and make sure everything is good connected. Also tried to wipe everything and flash stock 7.1.1, then 6.0.1, and still the same problem. Anyone got any idea? Should i replace the screen? Thank you

Maybe your GPU died? it's part of the CPU chip, and we know that unfortunately this CPU (SD808) is prone to fail on this device, due to heating-cooling cycles that creates cracks in the CPU chip substratum (looks like LG miscalculated the coefficient of expansion). I am saying it based on that you were flashing your device (it produces lot of heat and CPU use), and then, after a reboot the issue showed up.
But it can be faulty screen, this would be very weird (since i am assuming that you did not drop it during the flashing process or something similar) but not impossible.
You cleaned the connectors on the motherboard with isopropilic alcohol? i had a similar issue on my N4, and it was the solution.
Anyway if i were you, probably i would get some chinese and cheap screen replacement, at least to discard the faulty screen theory.
Thank you very much, i wouldnt think it could be gpu problem, but it looks like it is. I am going to give a try replacement screen. Taking into account my usage of phone, it would explain the dead gpu.

(N5100) Blue triangle after battery replacement.

Hi,
In last weeks i found out, that my Note 8.0 has battery issues. Having 50% and making ex. Skype connection after 1 minute just shuted down. This was dead battery. I ran some test and i found that having 75% is dangerous. So i bought new battery and replace it. The new battery came charged to ~70%. I ran about 30 minutes. Second day i turned tablet on and started to working normaly , when suddenly screen started to flicker black to normal and repeated few times. After that screen gone black. I've connected charger to Note and all i could see was Battery image with blinking blue triangle [see img]. I've examined battery and found out, that one cord was broken. So i repaired it. Still no effect. Note works only with charger, without inserted battery. Sadly theres more. Last time i was working and suddenly tablet gone down. Without warning.
Anye ideas will be helpfull. I've searched for a solution, but i was fiding similar problems with overheating icon, but not with this blue one.

What happens if you put in your old battery? If the problem persists, I'm afraid the some circuit on the board has been damaged.
