[Q] Screen Flickering - Please advice How to Fix - HTC One V

Hi Friends,
After using this phone for 3-4 months, the screen has started flickering frequently. Earlier the phone used to get heated a lot when I do multiple task simultaneously but recently the screen is flickering rapidly - seems like the screen is dancing with some random screen selection happening arbitrarily, and at that point I simply can’t do anything on the screen. Only the power button seems to be working and need to lock the phone for appx. 10mis which solves the problem temporarily. Usually it happens whenever the phone gets heated up (guess only). As I’m still covered under warranty, I can carry the phone to the nearest service center but I’m scared just in case I can’t reproduce it there. I’ve checked setting like un-checking the option ‘Strict Mode Enabled’ in developer setting and resetting the phone but it does not help me (also searched this forum but can’t find any). Can anyone have any idea or suggestion to solve this. Please please help.
Thanks in advance.

thanks dude for your help but the ‘Strict Mode Enabled' is already disabled, Is there any app like Chrome or something which is causing this problem?? I'm scared just in case I cant reproduce it in the service center, as this behavior is quite random in nature.

As you've mentioned chrome. Try uninstalling it as i have had flickering problems with chrome installed

no uncheck all the boxes, all the boxes, which ROM?

I've just uninstalled the Chrome, just to check if it was causing this problem at all, would let you know guys after using some time.
BTW I'm currently on the stock Indian ROM (v2.24.720.1, boot-loader locked, no root), also I've every option un-checked (except Animation) under Setting --> Developer Options. Any other option to try dudes, it is just irritating to use this phone now

This the the last option but the best
Hold the power button and volume button and boot in fat boot mode and from there factory reset

Still no luck. Reset my HTC One V, also un-installed Chrome, still the problem still persists, planning to visit service center this weekend, hopefully I'd be able to show them the actual problem.

htc desire screen problem

hello. i have bought a desire few days ago. yesterday i notice a problem. i have search the internet but havent find anything similar.
when i press the power button to turn of the screen after i press it again to turn on my screen sometimes the screen turns green and i cant do anything.
this thing doesnt happens all the time. but is preaty annoying and i have to remove the battery.
does anybody have an idea what is the problem
I think it's a hardware failure. Best way is to contact HTC Support.
i am not sure if ita hardware problem. because i notice that moso of the time that this happens is when i lock my screen when an application is open.

I don't think you'll find that's an unusual thing to do! I do it all the time, and have never experienced the problem.
As has already been mentioned, chances are it is a problem with you particular device - especially since you haven't had it for long. However, it could be an app causing the problem, so I'd suggest a factory reset in the first place and see how it performs in a more "vanilla" state.
If it behaves itself, start adding your apps back in again, and hopefully you'll find one causing the problem.
Regards,
Dave
i have already did a factory reset a nothing change. i thing the problem is with the lock screen after i press the power button.. i install no lock now on my phone that disable the lock screen and seems to work ok now.
one thing i forgot to mention is that the problem apear after i did a factory reset.
if this was a hardware problem shouldn't be happening all the time?
i just send an email to htc and inform them with my problem.

Turn it round the other way - if it was a software problem, it would be happening to everyone using the same ROM as you.

yes i know that. but since i disable the lock screen. the problem dissapear.
Today I took my phone to the shop I bought it and after half an hour of trying to show to the guy there what's was the problem. He gave me a replacement.

Hello everybody, i'm fresh new.
Also on my htc desire I have this problem, if you are able to use the device, without see the screen content, you can also shut down the phone. I say shut down because the problem disappear if you stop the phone (or leave the battery) for some minute. it's like all the meroy needs to be lost.
I had this problems some months ago, I unistalled one-by-one the apps, and it worked, now I have installed (during the last 5 months) other apps, and from 3days ago it restarted with this problem.

I am doing but I'm not sure it's the best solution.
I think it is related to some apps, some software problem, but I removed almost all my apps.
I noticed also that if I press the lock/unlock button for some secs, the problem there isn't. But it happen again (most of the time) when I put the device on charge, without turn it off, then when it finished it's a little bit hot and the display doesn't work.
I think it's a problem of the lock button, not software.
what is the name of this app?

I think is a problem related to the memory of the phone. Because I don't have new apps on my Desire.
If I move all my apps on the SD Card, it never (almost) happen...but if some Widget, on the phone, starts in background..
when I push the bottom at the top...the display doesn't switch on.

screen problem
Hi just wondered if anyone else has had this problem bought a desire a few days ago seemed to work fine but it has begun to act a little strange from time to time. from time to time the touch screen will not work just locks up, also the screen goes crazy flipping from one screen to the next, came with android 2.2 but upgraded it to android 2.3 from the HTC official site using HTC sync thought this may stop it, it does not happen as often now but still does it have to turn the phone off then back on again for it to work, anyone got any ideas on this and how I may cure it Thanks for your time.

Periodical unlocking problem

Hi,
I'm a new member here. This is also my first android phone I ever had. I've searched if someone already has similar problem, but I didn't find any thread with the explanation so I decided to make a new thread.
Here is the situation:
I have Wildfire S, system is updated to android 2.3.5 ; software number 2.26.169.1
My problem is unlocking. Sometimes, when I press unlocking (power) button at the top of the phone light doesn't appear on the screen (only sensor buttons are lighten at that moment). After that I put my finger where ring lock should be shown and slide my finger up, and the phone unlocks... After pressing the power button at the top of the phone I should be able to see my screen (it should turn on), but that doesn't happen every time. I tried with restarting the phone. After restarting it works fine, but the same thing happens again lately.
Phone came with android 2.3.3. To solve the problem, I tried factory reset after the upload to 2.3.5 (thought it is going to return system to 2.3.3) but software version stayed on 2.3.5
If anyone knows how this could be solved, please tell me.
Thanks!

Are you running a custom rom, if you are, then i suggest you set your min frequency at about 200mhz. If you are using stock, unrooted, i suggest you take it to the HTC service center to get it fixed or better still, root it and enjoy the limitless possibilities of android! :good:
Thanks

Thanks for the replay. It is stock ROM. As I said I recently started using android. I'm not familiar with all of that possibilities it has. I'll consider what to do. Anyway thanks a lot!

bottom buttons not working, please help

bottom buttons not working, none of the three. when i try to press back or menu, sometimes nothing happens and sometimes i press above, like menu at home page. And also when i try to keep touching them after a while the phone gets crazy, and starts to make strange things like entering some apps, switching between them, taking screen shots (normally i do not know how to do it), beeping, and going on like this without stopping. if i can press power of, it stops, otherwise it goes on himself.
i try pressing all three at same time may times, and i restart many times. Sometimes it starts normal with buttons working, usually with not-working buttons, but it gone againg Now i am trying to use without buttons, but when i start any apps, i can not back, so everytime i restart ((( offfff
My device is original , original rom without root, or something else. i just install apps from market thats all.
Before it goes crazy with non-working buttons, i just start to use a Bluetooth headset (discovery 975), after pairing with it for a time i use normal both device. and my last app which i install via google market was "GSM Signal Monitoring". Now i uninstall it, and bluetooth is off. But problem is still valid

Have you try factory reset? Backup data 1st.
Happened to me, I got a new screen under warranty.
i did not do a factory reset yet, because backup everything and saving passwords... it is also a hard work
but at last i will do it

Same here, mine also get replaced under warranty and it is a hardware problem
i hope mine's is not a hardware problem, because i have no warranty
but for a 12 hours it works normal, i do not know what effects it but i make bluetooth on, and it seems normal now.
just strange
I had the same problem, they replaced the touch screen under warranty.
Even with an unlocked bootloader.
please please not he hardware problem i have NO WARRANTY
i had a similar problem on my first hox and it was replaced under warranty
my buttons were completely dead. yours seem to still have some life in them. try a factory reset. if that doesnt work then try holding all 3 keys at once for 3 seconds. i am told that this "resets" them
if neither of these work them i am afraid the screen is broken
Yeah it's broken.
In the HTC shop they reflashed the RUU just in case, but, it was broken.
Why do you have no warranty?
i have the same problem with the same facts

Hi friend, just know i read your invoice while i was trying to find a solution in my same problem. My device HTC One X (32Gb official rom, not rooted, android 4.2.2, Sense 5.0)
Most of my friends say that the only thing i have to do is to send it at the service as it is still on warranty. I have tried everything before, like reset, remove everything, but the problem still occurs.
Tomorrow i will try the service
Can this be due to the recent update?

Hi. I've never imagined such a thing to happen at random and I strongly believe this to be an outcome of the recent OTA update (4.4.2, S5). Everything was working fine until today evening when I picked up my phone to make a call and boom...the buttons just stopped responding. I barely stay away from my phone...and I had it functioning fine 2 minutes before they stopped responding.
What could be the cause of it? Is there anyone out here who can please...please shed some light on this. I'm not opting in to do a hard reset yet because I have this thing called 'button savior' doing the job for me but of course it ain't nothing in comparison to the stock thing. Plus, this is annoying to see your device go off on you in such random fashion. Any help will be highly appreciated...really looking forward to hearing from someone.

BUMP!
Is there anyone who can throw some light on this? I have been told that front panel is faulty and it'd cost me approx. 8k+ for the replacement of the entire front panel. I'd rather sell this than spend 8k on it.
Mine started doing the same thing and I also had no warranty for the device. The way I got around not being able to use the physical buttons was through an app called Button Savior. You can download it from the play store and there is a free version that functions perfectly well. If you aren't rooted then install the non-root version. This app puts touch buttons on your screen. It takes a little getting used to, but overall Button Savior was a great alternative for me.

There's no way the buttons will come to life after the reset. I tried all of that but to no use. As a last option, try to place all 3 fingers on the bottom buttons for few seconds (I've heard few cases reporting it to be the magic key but not in my case ). If still the things dont work, the only good option is to download this app called 'button savior'. This will save you from the big replacement expense (I think the front panel is close to 100$+ and about INR 8,000 here in India). As someone else also stated here, it will take you a little while to get used to it but believe me it will still be better than betting that kind of amount on a dead device. Good luck!
An alternative solution for hardware buttons problem
Hi guys,
After getting the same problem as all of you, and due to no warranty for my HOX, I searched over googleplay and find out this very useful application which replaces the hardware buttons, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smart.swkey , thanks to the developper he really saves my life and my HOX's life
Hope that this app will help you as it did for me!

THANK YOU!!! I was really desperate and without warranty. Try you said and it works. Too much porn on my HOX :angel:

Is HTC warranty affected by installing ROMs, CWM etc?

I installed Tigger's excellent WildChild ROM a couple of weeks ago using CWM. My phone is S-ON, so I unlocked the bootloader by downloading the file from HTC's site.
Now with typical timing my phone appears to have developed an unrelated problem with the touchscreen - after a short while of use, it starts glitching up and the touchscreen goes all screwy, acting as if I'm pressing in places I'm not pressing and stuff like that. I can unglitch it by pressing the power button off then on again, but it's really annoying and makes the phone nearly unusable.
So I'm thinking I'll need to return the phone to HTC - will my warranty be affected because I've unlocked the bootloader? Can I remove stuff like CWM and the modded ROM so when (if) I return it, they won't say I've invalidated the warranty?
Thanks a lot for any help.
No....they already know that you unlocked the bootloader since you did it via HTCdev.....
And PLEASE!!!! THERE IS A Q AND A SECTION HERE!! POST QUESTIONS THERE

Thanks for the suggestion, I actually use several different chargers anyway and it doesn't seem to affect it. I've reset the phone to factory setting and cleared the Dalvic cache several times. Unfortunately problem still exists.
If you've ever tried to use your phone in the rain, the problem is very much like that. I really wish there was a way to fix it, but it looks like I'm going to have to send it back, and hopefully HTC won't complain that I've installed modded ROMs etc.
When I have had that issue when I turn of the screen and look at it at an angle there's usually a little non-glossy spot or two that you can slightly feel.cleaning them off usually fixes it .happens a lot after eating greasy foods. May our Mary not help but better then having to replace it

HTC One X Screen won't turn on, touchscreen still work???

I have been using the HOX for over 2 months now but this morning my phone display suddenly doesn't turn on even the backlight key still on and touchscreen still work ( when I sweep my finger up the unlock sound still play, and I can even adjust the volume of the phone, etc... ) I have no ideas if this is a software or hardware problem and how to solve it, I'm still on Stock Rom, Stock Kernel,... Please help me
try to reboot pressing power button for 10 seconds, if it'll not work, it can be hardware problem, as i understood you haven't unlocked it, so you can send it to htc and they will repair it, or if you can, you can change it by yourself,
have you tried starting in bootloader and factory resetting?

Same Problem
Hey, ive been using my international HTC One X for about two months too now and there have been no problems. ever since the update to 4.0.3 ive been facing exactly the same problem. The screen does not turn on a lot of the time but the touch is active. Have you found any solution to it?
It would be great if you could help me out.

I have the same problem now. Using it completely stock, the screen doesn't turn on. Well.... Except for the times I visit the Vodafone shop to get it fixed....
Their first reaction was a defect in the screen, so they ordered a new one. I brought it yesterday again and it is now in for repair.
I don't know if this will solve the problem. How did they fix yours?

I have the same problem now. Using it completely stock, the screen doesn't turn on. Well.... Except for the times I visit the Vodafone shop to get it fixed....
Their first reaction was a defect in the screen, so they ordered a new one. I brought it yesterday again and it is now in for repair.
I don't know if this will solve the problem. How did they fix yours?

I can't believe it...
I get my HOX fixed last week and I worked normally again. But after 2-3 days, the problem is back again. I contact HTC and they said they even replaced my MOTHERBOARD and Screen. Wtf is happening???

hey guys
I had this problem a month ago, i know its frustrating.
anyway the only solution is factory rest from boot loader and flash RUU (worked for me)
the first time i had it, i did a factory reset, all my pics music were gone, phone went back to normal( stock, locked)
after a day the problem appeared again, second rest.
flashed RUU and the problem is gone. thanks god i have been using my HOX about a month science that problem and every thing is working great.
im sure its a software issue and I recommend every one to back up their files(pics,music)
just flash RUU and good luck
Lol, exactly the issue I had recently had with mine. Sent it backto htc, let's see what they would do about it.

My colleque has the same issue with his One X.
It started with suddenly everything on his screen looking "zoomed in", so everything double size, looking ugly as a mofo, and not usable. After locking the sceen and unlocking again, it was fine.
Monday suddenly also screen didn't want to turn on anymore. Did the hard reboot for him, and it worked again... Untill he locked his screen and wanted to unlock, same issue.
Also, that time when doing the hard reboot, screen didn't turn on at all. Did another one, and worked again.
He's now sent it in for repair, this definately sounds like ahrdware issue, even full reset through bootloader didn't help.

Yup, exactly the same problem I'm having, I sent it to HTC, they said they fixed it by replacing the motherboard, but now it is happening again, I will have to send to HTC again.
This just happened to my phone... Has anyone else solved it? Is reset and flashing RUU the solution?

I have the same problem right now.
It started last week when I was using Flipboard and suddenly everything started zooming in and stuff (same as mhulsegge above). It was resolved by locking my screen and unlocking it.
Last night, i've been getting the black screen when I try to unlock my phone. The touchscreen still works but the screen is just blank. It turns on if I keep locking and unlocking, but it's getting annoying.
My phone is an international One X (duh) bought in Hong Kong and I'm currently living in Canada so it would not be possible to send it back for repairs. Plus my phone is rooted and I am currently using the latest MIUI ROM (2.9.21). I have been using an app called "Sleep" which tracks your sleeping patterns. It requires you to place your screen face down on your bed when you sleep and the accelerometer will track your sleeping patterns and wake you up at the most optimal time. I assume that for the accelerometer to work the screen has to be on, so I am wondering if this can be a screen malfunction (overheat or overuse) problem since the screen has been on for so long (every night when i sleep for around a month).
Since sending it back is out of the question for me because of where I am living right now and I have voided my warranty, I am downloading other ROMs as we speak and seeing if it is a problem with my ROM. I will keep you guys posted.
-edit- I have tried factory reset and reinstalling my ROM (with a full wipe). Still doesn't work.
It´s probably not your rom since I use CM10 hand have the same problem and others have even been running stock and had this problem. The only one who seems to have solved this (at least in this thread) flashed RUU, so guess I´ll go try that now...
Would be great to hear if anyone else has solved it, and how!
edit: This has to be a hardware problem, if I push on the screen it starts working! Its like something is loose, and when i press on the screen it gets connected again.

Good tip, but I tried a gentle two-fingered push (zoom pinch) and the backlight turned itself on with very little pressure, certainly not enough to flex the screen. I believe that it is a state issue related to zoom, but will try again and report if the issue returns.
Screen black after replacement lcd display unit
Hi,
My HOX touchscreen was broken, the touch and everything was still working. I ordered a replacement lcd display Unit and replaced the complete display and touch. After replacement the screen is completely black but the phone still works. The touch buttons on the bottom still work and i can use the volume buttons. I replaced the lcd display unit very carefully and i am sure nothing is broken etc. So the touch is working but the screen is black. I tried 2 display units and both show me a black screen.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Did i forget to do something during the replacement?
Please, i need some help with this issue.
OneX has too much issue with Screen . WTF with HTC?
