Problems with display - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi guys have any of you had any problems like I have with my display as shown.
Its happens quite often but when I reboot it goes back to normal.
Any ideas? As it is getting annoying.

When will people realize we can not see a hardware problem in a screenshot?
We cannot see what you are talking about. Unless you mean the letters on the app names.
If so I'd say reflash from scratch

Wow, did you even look at the screenshot?
Anyways, I've never seen that problem before. What ROM and kernel are you running?

Corrected my post. I thought he blanked them out for some reason. I've never seen it happen but as I said try a fresh flash

Couple other threads on this. Its something with the launcher getting corrupted.

Please forgive my ignorance but how do I reflash my 4.0.4 firmware?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

Try clearing the launcher data first before flashing the stock images
settings>apps>all>launcher

OK El Daddy I have done that.
I shall monitor the situation and see if that sorts it.

I've had something similar happen a couple times except some of the characters were black.
Non rooted locked VZW LTE with Apex pro.
I would attach a screen shot but don't have enough posts.

Umm.... actually if it was a hardware problem it wouldn't be displayed in a screenshot, did you change the font?
And, cool!! You use bump!

No I didn't change the font.
I don't get to use bump often but I feel it is a handy app to have.
So far what El suggested has worked. But will keep you updated.

Update!!!!
This issue is still apparent. Anyone have any other ideas?

what are the widgets you have running? I read a while back people were having this issue due to widgets based on old API's and not scaling properly.

U still having this problem mate??
*Derp*

"Download unsuccessful"

Whenever I download something with the browswr, it always goes to 99% then instead of saying download complete.
It shows download unsuccessful.
This has happened on wifi, 4g lte, and 3g. I always had signal when I downloaded the files. I've had this problem on stock 4.0.2 and CM9 kang (current rom).
Is this a known issue that all galaxy nexus owners experience? Or is it just me? Please help... can't download anything with my phone...

Not very helpful, but I've never had any trouble downloading in browser. Are you using stock browser?

Yes. I feel in ics, there's no real need for third party browser so I always use the stock browser.

I have this problem and i agree it shouldn't happen but, as a work-around, what i do is go to the download folder in App drawer and "retry" the download. I would say i get over a 95% success rate by "retrying" downloads.

Yeah, sometimes I have to retry like 5 times.
I have this problem as well. I just keep retrying till it succeeds. Not a huge deal since 4G is decent in my area.

All this talk is useless without posting whether or not you've installed a custom rom or kernel.
I had the issue on some old franco/aokp versions. seems to have gone away now.
OK...
I was running Franco/cm9 kang when I had my problems.
Now that I'm on gummy and the included kernel, the problems have yet to surface.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Thanks for all the info guys.
I really like cm9 kang so I do not want to flash other roms.
But clearing the browser data has helped!
Until now it has successfully downloaded everything on the first try . So thanks again

I have this problem on stock nexus. I sometimes have to hit retry 3 or 4 times.

Screenshots not working

I've tried a bunch of root and non root screenshot apps and all of them take screenshots but all I get is a black picture. What could be the problem?
Thanks!

Pres Vol down + Power at the same time.
What does that do, and when do I do it while taking a screenshot? It's not taking the screenshot that's the problem, it's something to do with saving I think.

[REQUEST] Lock screen with ink effect

Most likely any flashable .zip you find from the international S2 forum will not work on the Skyrocket/Hercules. Different processor, different hardware.

Any progress. Its seems all other phones are getting the mod without problems...and I pretty much tried all of them...something about installing the right SecSettings.apk with the ink option...can't understand why none work with jedijelly...I'm pretty sure other ROMs work....also off topic, I want the ring clock/weather/battery widget from the Motorola RAZR i ported for the sg2...I have the onemoreclock.apk which is almost the same but I would like to have the real version

If it's a flashabke zip, the zip won't flash if the script mounts system manually. Try pulling the files from the zip and drag them with es manually.

Has pretty much everything from the S3.
Oh and this one as well which is the base used in the ROM. Just scroll down to addons

Also a simple google search would help! Reduces a lot of the clutter in the forums But if you can't find it then you may post!

I don't want a Galaxy s3. I don't like the phone itself. Plus why pay 500 for that when I can just put a Galaxy S3 rom on this phone and it be the exact same? But I did a search and didn't find anything. But I finally got the Widgets.
