I've got a little problem that is draining my battery.
When i press the power button, my screen turns off, but two second later it turns on into the lockscreen.
Already tried a full wipe to look if some app is causing the problem, but nop. it still had the problem.
However the weird thing is that when i use the phone it never turns the screen off. it does sometimes pop up the power menu, but that does not happen often.
I hope someone can help me, because it annoys the heck of off me that i can't even get 7 hours out of my phone w/ minimal use.
Before I unlocked my phone, when it was powered off and on the charger I would get a fancy looking battery on the screen that looked to be charging. After a minute the screen would shut off and the red led would like up till it was charge. That was stock and rooted.
Now after unlock, with the phone off and on the charger I get a very very simple white battery on the screen that animates filling up. After 30 seconds or so the battery disappears but the screen stays on. No way to turn of the screen. No red led just a lit screen when the phone is off. When the phone is on all is normal and the screen is off and the red led lights up to show its charging.
I'm stock ROM, liberty kernel and no kernel tuning. I checked setting and they say screen should be off when charging. I have TWRP 2.5.0 for recovery. Any ideas why the screen won't turn off when charging with the phone off?
Thanks.

Mine does the same thing. It hasn't really been a problem. You can charge your phone with it on and just with the screen off. If you're concerned with charging it rapidly you can just turn on airplane mode. Airplane mode and screen off charges nearly as quickly as the phone being completely off.

Thanks for the reply. I usually charge with the phone on but screen off. My issue is if the phone dies (powers itself off) and I charge it, the screen is still lit even though the phone died.

Mine did the same thing after I unlocked too. Wasn't really worried about it though. I know switching to an aosp based ROM fixes the issue

Go into settings-developer options- make sure stay awake is not checked. Lets start there.

This is happening to my LG OG as well, and having the Battery Doctor app installed usually showed the progress if I clicked the power button to show the screen, but then back off completely. Now it's that weird little white battery icon and when that goes away, the screen is empty but lit.
I preferred the Battery Doctor charging screen when off, since it shows percentage complete. If there is a way to restore that setting, please help. :fingers-crossed:
I will try to find a new AOSP ROM as was suggested below as well... keep you posted.

Woahhhh im having the exact same problem here! but my phone is NOT charging, it stayed on the little cheapo battery thing overnight and its still not booting up now
Same here
Anyone out there has a suggestion/fix ?
If I have problems I boot into recovery and let It charge that way
G0d is here. now Free
Having this issue as well, any solution?
Found none yet. I just let it charge up enough to boot back up. Then finish charging with the phone powered on but screen off.

Stock did this for me. Any Aosp rom will fix this.

Have you updated your ROM to Stock ZVC? I am using Spleef's Carbon, and I clean flashed the updated file and restored my apps/data with TiBu, as well as updating my BatteryDoctor app, I'm not only getting the screen to turn off when charging, but it's also showing me the percentage charged on the little battery animation when I turn the screen (not the device) on.
Just yesterday i noticed that my phones screen was bugging out, eg. if it bumped into something or set down on a hard surface the screen would
flicker, similar to static, but only for a second. later that day, the screen went black, i thought the battery was low and did a quick battery pull
and it booted up normally. it happened again an hour or two later the, black screen that is. when i got home i really noticed the static as it was
placed on hard surfaces: the table, desk, etc. since it was low on battery i plugged it in to charge for a bit, when i came back to tun it on i was able
when when the screen timed out i wasn't able to turn it back on, i tried the battery pull but nothing, At that point the boot animations wouldn't show
the only things that indicated that the phone was turning on was the notification light and the pouch buttons. when it is "on" i'm able to swipe to
unlock, hold down and get the feedback of when you want to move an app or widget. The phone is on but the screen is black. oh and when i try
to go into recovery or download mode the screen is still black,
im wondering if its a busted screen but the thing is there are no cracks or anything on the screen maybe a few minor scratches but that's it

truthfully, i haven't a clue, but i can guess, if you are talking storage wise, around 3-5 gigs.
Hi,
I dropped my phone yesterday in the water. I was able to turn it on but the volume button was messed up, so I put it in some rice overnight. Today, in the morning I tried to turn it on and it was stuck in the booting LG logo. I turn on safety mode and then turn it off to get it working again. It was working fine until afternoon. The phone screen went black but it is still working (i was listening to radio and it was still on when the screen went black) I took out the battery and put it in to try to turn it on. LED flashes, it is working but still black screen (I was able to accidentally dial voicemail). The phone also heat up with just the battery inside the phone. It heat up even more when it is "turned on". Is this a hardware issue? Does anyone know how to fix it? I tried the volume down + power, take out battery and reinsert. Nothing works... I know this is a long post, I really appreciate anyone that took the time to read it. Thank you.

Yeah, sounds like a hardware error. Not really much you can do except get a new phone. Sounds like it's sustained water damage, despite that you put it in rice.

As soon as my battery is below 80% charge the screen seems to turn black at random every few seconds, staying like that for about 2-3 seconds and turning back on after. Note, that it doesn't turn off, but just black, so the back light is still on. Touchscreen doesn't work while the screen is black though.
This happens in system as well as during boot. It gets worse the lower the battery is.
I disabled all battery saving options, but the problem persists.
The mobile phone has not been tampered with (bootloader locked, official ROM on most recent update).
Does anyone know what the problem might be and how to fix it?
I'd also be grateful for any ideas on how to narrow down the faulty component. :good:
