Noticed something strange for the first time , screen is laggy and not responsive while charging the phone , I think it maybe is the kernel as its the first time to notice this , It happened after flashing franco-r6 kernel and iam using insert coin 6.3.1 Rom
Is this normal ?

You flashed a ROM, You're not stock therefore you need to consult the dev of that Rom about the issue.
To be fair, I had this issue on stock.. so it probably isn't a problem with the ROM

Yep I get this issue at times as well. Especially when I've left it to charge for a while and try to perform a pattern unlock. Happens about twice a week or so. Screen returns to normal after 10 seconds or so. Weird.
+1 this happens on stock roms all the time. it's intermittent, and often can be temporarily fixed by switching the screen off then on again.
I'm about to send my phone in for repair because of this problem. I actually have a dead patch on the screen which is intermittent. If I go to Developer Options > Pointer Location, and then trace my finger around the screen, I can see the patch where it's not picking up the input. Also sometimes the phone behaves erratically and can become completely unresponsive and flicks back and forth between home screens. Turning the screen off and then on again fixes it temporarily.
My phone is awaking on the lock screen by its self. I don't know what has caused this problem i did not do any changes to the rom or any thing.
My phone is-
Stock ROM
Rooted
XXML8 Kernel
I have also downloaded Better battery stats to help
Okay so i just lock it and then the screen comes on by it self after 3mins....this wastes alot of my battery and its really annoying.

I also have had the same issue. Happened to me in random ocassions. I locked it then put in my bag/pocket and it awakes from lock screen by itself. Weird. Anyone knows whats causing this problem?
I installed go locker though, so far it never happened again. My guess is that its from the stock locker itself, or the screen itself being too sensitive.

No.. its not from screen over sensitive because the screen is completly off and it cannot come back un unless you press sleep wake button.
It actually happende to me on Go locker first.i reverted back to stock and stock seems to be working better than GoLocker.
Hi there, does anyone else experience screen flicker after latest update? I have never had it before, but after updating it does it now and then. Is there any easy fix for it?

Hi!
I experienced flicker after the update. After an factory reset and an battery charge it was gone. Now there's none. Maybe not an easy fix but worked for me!

In what application do you experience this flicker? is there a certain steps to encounter this? i haven't experience this yet. maybe a restart will help.

Grey background, white background, under lamp, in the dark. Depends, but if you don't have it or don't see it do not try to find it.
It's a big issue many threads, long threads, search but rather don't.

As i never had any flickering, i could presume it is very deep hardware fault and not a software issue, should be repaired by warranty

Uf lets do not get this down this road again....
Please do not mention hardware fault again....It has nothing to do with this matter....
It might be a hw fault, malfunction, etc. But the ota before this .11 fought against it. Meaning the flickering was minimal or gone for most of us.
Now the technical description I do not know. But in more informed threads there was written that the kernel needs time to adapt to make the flickering go away. And most ppl that had flicker pre .11 were helped in matter of hours or days.
So I believe the flickering will be gone also after some usage. Lets get back to this in few days.
And guys who have nothing better to do as to say, it might be a hardware issue, please dont. I would like if only ppl that know what the flickering is about would write in this thread.
So if you never had it, dont have it now. Please ignore this thread ok?
Thank you
Dont wanna sound arrogant or condescending Raider, but I had fights about this already in custom rom threads. I do not wanna go there again. Sorry.
Why we cant see guy problem s profile? 4 th guy with problem, but dont know his profile, I mean messeges.
Htc One X Venom ViperX Rom + faux123 s kernel + Rezound Mod
So 10 days after the update, even though I had few reflashes, so maybe that doesnt help much, but still the flickering is still there.
Anyone else still has flickering now after a longer 4.0.4 usage and did it get better for some?
I had this before the update, then updated and waited 3 days on full brightness (i.read it has to settle with voltage or some stuff). Maybe you could try having it on full brightness? Not saying it will work & believe me, I understand your pain! Hope something works for you soon!
Keep us updated!

My HTC One X screen flickers only when on auto-brightness
Hi,
What do you mean exactly with 'screen-flicker' issues?
Different people use this description for some very different screen issues,
so I don't know if yours is severely bad or just minor...
I personally did experience some light screen flicker when the display is on auto-brightness,
the screen then has short periods where it quickly switches its brightness, and I assumed this
was normal because it's trying to adjust the brightness to the environment lighting.
This effect is easily noticed when scrolling the settings screen and is completely gone
when I deactivate auto-brightness.
maybe this can be helpful...

I have the same thing going on.. it's like the backlight voltage is going up and down real fast.. after reading tons of topics on this matter I guess a lot of you guys are experiencing it.. so where is the official statement from HTC that the update should take up to two weeks to work for the screen???

Just off with HTC after the update last week. (Stock phone not rooted) My One X has been freezing especially on Facebook and twice a day rebooting itself. Slight flickering when scrolling..All errors were logged. Soft reset and Hard reset carried out several times, but no improvement.
HTC have put a service call on it and collecting the phone Thursday.

Try flashing the RUU (this is the first thing HTC will do). It will wipe your phone, so back up. But test it before restoring.
Mine seems only to be flickering with Sense Launcher. No flickering with Nova Launcher. AND Nova is even smoother.

Can someone explain, what this flickering is? It's not similar to the 'Recent Apps'/Grey Colour is it?
I purchased a brand new HOX yesterday which had a screen flicker. The flicker was only noticed on white.
I turned the phone on and was pushed 3 software updates, one after another and thought that after the updates the screen flicker would be solved. I ended up with the 4.0.4 update and the screen flicker was still there. I did a full factory reset and the screen flicker seems to have gone.
I will keep my eye on it, because if needed I can return it for a replacement within 30 days.
Has a factory reset worked for anyone else after updating to 4.0.4?

Not that I know of. I mean that a factory reset helps.
After it was flickering for me. I decided to go and test a custom kernel. Before the only reason I couldn't go with a custom kernel was the flickering. Only on stock it didn't flicker for me.
So as it was flickering I tried faux again, and now I do not notice it anymore.
Maybe it needed time to settle, maybe the UV helped? Or that I shutdown the capacitive buttons lights? I do not know...
But it can also be the change of scenery. As I was before on another continent
you need to wait till the update settles...

Problem: Cannot turn on the screen by pressing the power button sometimes. The screen is black or very dim, I cannot tell. One can see nothing on the screen, and it doesn’t accept any touch input, either. The phone still rings if there’s an incoming call. If this happens, the following several presses (about 10 - 20) on the power button will probably lead to a reboot. The “screen auto-rotate” and the proximity sensor may fail after the reboot, but will recover after a manual reboot.
Frequency: Fewer with higher Rom version. About once per day for 4.3.
Other description:
The problem frequently happens when I just take the phone outside my house/office, and seldom happens when the phone just stays somewhere.
The problem seems to be irrelevant to the remaining battery capacity or the uptime, but it never happens when charging.
The problem seems to be irrelevant to the Apps installed.
The problem seldom happens in the first 3-4 days after flashing a Rom, but happens more and more frequently as time goes by. My guess is some cache is stuffed by some trash, which causes the problem. The phone may be fine as long as the trash can be cleaned up on a regular basis.
I manually reboot my phone at most every two days.
Solutions tried, but don’t work
Flashing official ROMs 4.0.4, 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.2 and 4.3 following the procedure “adb reboot bootloader; fastboot oem unlock; flash-all; fastboot oem lock”, without google wallet, not rooted.
Turning off the auto-brightness control, as suggested by some post on the Internet.
Does it look like it goes to standby normally or does the screen show gibberish and then turns off?

Thank you very much.
I think it's standing-by normally even through the screen is black (or very dim, I cannot tell), since it rings if there's an incoming call. I can see nothing from the screen, and I don't think the screen accepts any touch input, either.
Does this answer your question? Thank you.

Was just asking if you had gibberish yes or no. In that case i've got a different issue than you (Suspecting f*cked GPU).
Have you tried a different ROM/Kernel combination maybe it's related to that.

I've also had this blank screen with calls still ring issue for as long as I can remember, nearly 2.5 yrs.
I've always suspected it's my ROM and so I'd try out another ROM'S, BUT no other ROM works like how I'd like, so I always come back to my ROM.
It doesn't happen every single day, but it does happen very often.
I've tried using apps that auto reboot daily, but eventually this blank screen issue will return.
Unfortunately I can't seem to find any solution, so I just put up with it, it's like the 1 only flaw with my ROM.
&
Not to be at all rude, but I'm really glad op has had this issue from testing other versions of Android, cause then at least I know I don't need to give up my great tablet mode ROM.
LOL
I think I've finally found a work around for this screen of death.
Using Exposed, download/install this module/extension:
Disable Proximity
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.mrchandler.disableprox
It does exactly what it's name is and ever since then I've not once had to remove my GN battery to work again because the screen went completely dead.
NVM
Screen still goes dead.
Anyone find an actual fix to this?
isajoo,
I had pretty much the same problems with my Galaxy Nexus running CyanogenMod 11 M12.
It got better by doing the following :
Blowing dry air in the earpiece… though the proximity sensor is clearly beside it. Can't do any harm though, I guess.
Settings/Applications/All/menu/Reset applications preferences (or whatever that's called in english) : that seemed to do a lot of good to my phone ! However, it's a very unsatisfactory answer on a technical point of view, as I still don't know WHAT was precisely needed. It's a "magic wand" solution for which I can't give an explanation.
Not specifically related, but greatly helped my phone in the responsiveness area : Trimmer (fstrim) (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fifthelement.trimmer), an updated version of LagFix that you may already know
Hope that helped !
(I wanted to try http://www.androidlegend.com/how-to-perform-proximity-sensor-calibration-on-any-samsung-phone/ as well, but apparently, /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal does not exist on my phone…)
Hello everyone, I got LeEco Le Pro 3 two weeks ago. For the past two weeks of testing, I notice that the screen quickly turns red when pressing the power button to turn the screen off. Is any of you facing this problem? It happens randomly, not every time. I have attached the video in slow motion capture in the 7z zip file. So you can see, what I am talking about. Let me know if any of you see it.
In mine sometimes it blink red. Power sleeping your phone rapidly. May red screen is reaction for force kill app?

I did not power sleep my phone rapidly. The red screen still persist. I don't know if force kill app cause it. I submit the feedback through the leeco experience center about this issue. This is what I got from them:
"Le Engineer
Hello,
I just get some information for this issue, in low battery level the red screen issue will happen sometimes. We also find the same thing on other brand device.
However R&D team are working on it. Hope it will be fixed in next generation product.
Sorry for inconvenience. Thank you for choosing the LeEco."
So I don't know if my phone is defective or not. It's hard to tell. Base on this message, look like there is no fix for this.
I saw this movie. My phone behave as same as your <sometimes>. May it's EUI problem? Somebody on other ROM like MIUI or CM13 can say something?

Mine occur sometime, too. Here is what I analyze:
1. On the home screen; when pressing power button to turn off, red screen occur sometime.
2. Any app that has white background like the waze app I use in the video, red screen occur every time I turn off the screen while leaving the app running. That goes for other app like chrome, whatsapp, google map, gmail, etc. Same result.
3. On the back button, when I press hold, the screen turns off. No red issue. This was on the home screen and this rarely happen. But for apps that is open, same issue.
That is what I like to know if it is hardware defect or software EUI problem. It looks like software issues. It would be great if someone would test it with different roms such as CM13 or MIUI.

If you have another phone with slow motion support just like I did, you can try that.
Other thing I want to mention, I would like to know that if the red screen does not happen to people who have CM or MIUI on lepro 3, can any of you go back to EUI and try to do the same steps? If you can. This would more confirm that the software is the issue and not the hardware defect.
Any update?
Hi folks! I've been searching for this rare issue since I got my LM2 last week. I have the very same issue and I notice the same @crazy1990 mentioned here. Besides, I notice this red light is more noticeable when the brightness is higher.
IMO, I don't feel it's a matter of bad hardware (I hope so), as there are no clues of any other issues at all. I'm also using stock (23s) and I suspect it's some poorly designed fade for the ROM.
Any updates from anyone?
Yes. Red screen blink is noticeable when the brightness is high. As of June, I still have this issue since November on this stock rom 21s. So far, there was no screen degradation or any kind of lcd problem. Lcd works perfect since day one. A while back, I installed lineageOS and I still experience red screen when the rom froze and reboot. At this point, I still don't know if it is the software or hardware. I hope someone can help us out.

Great to know it doesn't happen on Omni/Purity. My biggest concern was an increasing degradation and/or flickering issues arising when changing to a stock ROM.
