Display problem in 8525

Hi guys,
My phone's display seems to be sliding downwards.. The bottom most part of the screen is slowly showing up on the top.. Seems like its sliding down and going round to the top .. Any ideas why is this so.. is it something to be worried about... or can it be easily fixed..
Cheers..

i was just making sure it was not the rom he had installed, sorry if you thought i was talking about redoing the rom and that would fix it but their is no way a rom could fix that he prolly dropped his phone 1 to many times

Yeah, i have dropped it a number of times.. but never it happened like this. this has been happening since a week now.. I have WM6 Premuim V2 by Dutty.. Its been on my phone since almost a year now.. Recently I had installed WM6.1 S64 Lite.. But that was very unstable and slowed the phone down.. So now I am back on WM6 Premuim V2 by Dutty..
Hope this helps..

You should DL the htc maintenance manual and try reconnecting the lcd cables. I had whitescreen issues and bottom of screen jumping t top so I bit the bullet and opened hermes up. was considerably easier than expected ( though do yourself a fovour and get the torque set (torque 6) ) and had it pulled apart then put back together in less than an hour. there is a lot of unneeded dissassembly in the maintenance manual (just take apart whats needed) but read thoroughly and do step by step and you should have no problem. Hope this helps you out...cheers....

hehehe that will work for sure.

Yep.. it was the issue with LCD.. also my screen would go fully white and nothing would happen after that.. That happens everytime I slide it.. It is found that the slide strip is the issue.. so that has to be replaced for it to solve..

[Q] Answer phone

every other time my phone rings I cant answer it. The accept button just wont move?? is it just me or have anyone else had this error I have a dezire z

Do you have set CPU set to 245MHz @ screen off?

no i dont, why?

Well that could be one cause, maybe it's a bad app causing your phone to temporarily freeze? Can you slide it the other way and ignore the call?

Did you try flashing a different kernel?

why do you suggest this? how do you know hes using kernels? im just trying to see what your connection to the solution is -its quite a specific answer to a problem that hasnt really been examined. what rom is he on, etc before you can start talking about kernels -- so can you clarify?
accept button - do you mean the slider? if you have cmod - just activate settings to disable lock menu/trackball/ whatever --also you could try the no-lock unless you have security issues.
if no cmod -- theres apps to reduce the lockage -- that may help you get your phone calls but still doesnt fix the problem? you could try enomther's and his awesome extra ssettings app has all those options

Thanks for your help, well it is my wifes phone and it is fresh from the store, just a bunch of apps installed.
I will try some things and see if i can figure it out. And yes it is the slide button, can that be switched for a push button, Is it theme based or in the dialer?? hope you understand what i say.

If its a stock DESIRE Z and not a G2 then I think it's safe to assume its got sense on it and not AOSP. Did you try hard resetting it? (power down and pulling the battery for at least 30 sec) other than that id check for any OTA updates in the settings menu. OR if you're willing/know how, you can root it and run CM or virtuous. Both ROMs are excellent. If you do that and the problem persists, it could very well be a faulty unit. You have a lot of options!

I found I had problems answering calls when I had a specific make of screen protector on the phone. As soon as I took that off and went back to a previous one I'd used then it was fine again ! It's a long shot, but I thought I'd throw it in there.

Problem solved, An update did the trick, thanks for helping out my friends,

I have the same problem, which update did you use

Vibrate on connect call

One of the greatest feature in HTC phones for me, was the Vibrate on connect feature. Basically the phone vibrates slightly when the person you are calling answers , if you are not holding the phone to your ear. As long as the screen is turned off the phone does not before as it "thinks" you are holding it at your ear.
Is there any way to enable something like this on the GNexus? I couldn't find an app to for this.
Maybe one of the talented devs around here are interested in doing a mod to enable this function?

Cyanogenmod has this feature. I'm unsure if it is present in cm9 as its still relatively new, but it was definitely in cm7

I would love this! Miss it!

I cant belive that there is no option for this on GN .. (stock rom)

I need this feather too.

I would love this feature too, was using hTC D2 for a while, and I'm new to Android

This would def. be interested in this feature being available.

I actually did give that one a try earlier today. The vibrate on call end worked for me, but the vibrate on call connect did not work at all (stock ICS). The app has several different "vibration mode settings" to try if it isn't working on your phone, but I had no luck with any of the different settings.
I emailed the developer, so hopefully they get back to me.

i'm missing this feature too!

I had this feature on the OG Droid through the KickBack, which was installed when I switched to a cyanogenmod 7 rom... KickBack says that it's deprecated/included in ICS, but I can't find a setting for this feature anywhere on my GN (4.0.4 stock rooted). I would really love to have this feature back, just so I don't have to stare at my phone until it starts actually dialing.

Proximity Sensor Issue?

When i place a call and put the phone to my ear and then pull back away the screen does not "wake". It stays de-activated, no matter what i do. Eventually the only thing to do is to hold the power button down long enough for the phone to reboot.
Stock ROM, no root.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

WTF
I tested by laying the phone flat on a surface, placed a call, and then put my hand over the proximity sensor. The screen turned black as it should. When I removed my hand it did not come back on. Again, the only solution is to reboot the phone. So, the proximity sensor is not working correctly. Is this a known issue and is there a way to fix?

BUMP!
I'm in the self test module and am running the "sensors" test. I'm not sure when this ends if it ends at all or what values that proximity sensor field should have.
Anybody? Bueller?

Apparently Q&A isn't the place to post this? This is dissapointing coming from the E4GT forums which were super responsive.

Cool yer jets. It's only been a few hours. What ROM? Rooted? Any other mods that might affect it?

LOL
I said no root stock ROM
Anyway, I turned off the proximity sensor, verified that it was off, then turned it back on. It works now. Bizarre.
Sorry to get pissy.

NOT FIXED
So after a reboot the proximity sensor does not work on calls again. I turned it off and then back on and still no luck. I didn't actually make a call, but obviously I shouldn't have to do this every time i reboot the phone, so clearly there is an issue. It appears to be software since I got it to work once.
Any ideas? Thanks.

After insalling a new screen my phone acted the same. I opened it up again and found a tiny piece of plastic form the old screen inside the proximity sensor hole.
I know your problem is not this, just wanted to share

hmmm interesting. I think this is likely a software issue on mine. it would be dumb to have to return it since i'm confident there's a way to fix it.

That solution wasn't very good aha, what I would suggest you root your phone without tripping the flash counter and install a custom rom to see if the issue still exists, if yes you should return the phone.

thanks well it's brand new and it may be hardware related so i'd rather just get a fresh device then sweat dealing with root yet. this is why i waited to root it. I appreciate your effort though .

Plus I don't think just rooting it is a sound fix strategy.

Can I prevent my phone from automatically lowering media volumem

So I'm running the latest version of Lifeless ROM and thus far, things are great. However, I'm still bugged about my phone automatically lowering the volume of my music/games every time my headphones/aux cable gets unplugged. A minor issue, yes, but an annoying one nonetheless. Is there a way to get rid of this? Thanks.

I don't think there is. There's two independent volume levels for headsets and speakers. What you're talking about is in place to prevent your movie or game from being blasted in a public place.
Essentially an embarrassment saver.
So I think you're one in a few for thinking this should be removed...

No I would love to remove it. Every time I plug my phone into my car, I have to turn the volume back up. Its to protect your ears and hearing when you put head phones in.
Most CM and customs ROMS remove the feature, or have the option to turn it off. Hopefully we'll get a ROM with the option soon.

Exactly. I was afraid I'd have to wait for CM or another AOSP ROM to do so, but as I said earlier, it's not *that* big of a deal; just a pain in the neck.

I'd have to agree, it's a total pain in the butt for me. If anyone does happen to come up with a way to disable it, beers are on me, lol.
