[Q] Weird artifacts instead of letters? - HTC One X

Hello,
I know I am not a most active member of XDA comunity,but I am lurking here for a while now.
I tried to search across the forum to find help for my problem but couldn't find it.
Here is what happens.At some parts of a menu(app order or blinkfeed themes) letters are not shown the way should be,but I'm only getting some weird artifacts instead.
When I accces setting menu through those artifacts,my setting menu is shown same way,but if I acces it normally,through an app screen(home>settings) letters are shown normally.
Since English is not my native language,and I have trouble to explain and describe what my problem really is,I attached 3 screenshots therefore.
This is an ebay phone,so I don't have a guarantee list what makes xda my first choice in trying to solve a problem.
Thank you in advance
Cheers

Uhm,sorry.I'm on the stock rom,unrooted,JB 4.2.2 and sense 5.

Can you add some screenshots of the software info panel. Settings - about - software ?
Only thing i can think of is to do a factory reset and re-set up the phone

Back to the civilisation...
I tried to turn phone on and off several times but no success at all.I searched all over the internet to find people with similar problem,and have actually find quite a few,but their problem was broken screen,where artifacts were always on the screen,and not only on 2 menus with submenus.Since I haven't been at home,I did most of my search on the phone,and of course,at the evening,battery was almost drained so I put the phone on the charger over the night.Unfortunatelly(or maybe I should say luckily),somehow the connection between phone and the charger was loose,and was interrupted,so till morning,phone was really dead.After connecting it to a charger,it needed couple of minutes only to get a charging light,but after turning the phone on,the artifacts were gone!Everything was as it used to be,
Conclusion:
Where the problem was?I really can't say.
Like I said before,I tried to get rid of those artifacts by switching the phone of and on several times,but it didn't help.
I haven't done a factory reset primarily because I was to lazy to even think about adjusting the phone again,not to mention doing it.
And at some moment,when O was already at peace with those two menus shown with artifacts instead of letters,charger situation happened,Seems that battery draining and recharging it again had some weird connection with artifacts on the screen.
Thanks everybody for,at least,reading my post
Cheers

[RESOLVED] Ics official rom crash when I try to change background! (Galaxy S2)

Hello guys,
Unfortunately I still have problems after upgrading to ics ...
I upgraded from gingerbread and I had many problems and continue crashes.
The rom is official Samsung Xeo.
To solve the problems I did a wipe and re-install all the applications from the market (like I have a new phone, without syncing).
Now I have two problems:
If you use third-party app sms messages are sent double (two equal) [For this issue I'm following another post]
The most serious is this:
If I try to set a background image from gallery the phone freezes.
What i do: I go to the gallery, I select the image and immediately becomes all black. After I see popup "Application crash....".
I'm using Nova Launcher but with TouchWiz the problem is the same.
Do you have any idea on how I can fix?
I sought for applications that can set backgrounds. I managed to change but after the phone goes in spurts (with GPU acceleration enabled).
Thank you for your time,
Sli
Try turning of '2d-hardware acceleration' in developers options. Worked with me.
Good luck

The duplicate SMS problem is apparently solved in LP7 though I didn't have it in LPH/J or Q
I read in another thread that the gallery issue is caused by ticking the force GPU rendering option in developer options in settings

'Loading' screen for 3-5 seconds? - SOLVED!

Hi, there.
I'm on Vodafone in the UK and my new One X displays the message 'Loading' with the moving circle underneath every time I return to the homescreen or come out of a programme (for between 3 and 5 seconds.) I've only had the phone for a day and have arranged to have a replacement delivered on Monday, but I wondered whether anyone else has noticed this? It's obviously a dealbreaker but I can't see any other threads, so am I right to assume I just got a dodgy phone?
(I also have a yellow spot on the bottom left of the screen, so I'm not sorry to be getting a replacement.)
Thanks in advance!
The loading screen happens to almost all the OneX out there but if your planning to unlock bootloader then you can use SuperCharger script or one of the custom ROM which already has it. Otherwise you have to live with it.

Gosh, really? I mean this is just infuriating - every time I exit something, there is a reeeeally long pause before I can do anything else. Does that happen to all the phones? Every review I've read talks about how fast this phone is and I would have thought a three or four second hiatus before a new task can be started would have been mentioned somewhere within the torrent of praise I've read for the One X.
I've just come from a BlackBerry Bold which was much quicker and the iPhone doesn't pause like this - if the new phone has it, I'm going to have to rethink.
Is this something others are also experiencing?

It's been a common problem with Android that's why we have SuperCharger script. You'll be suprised how of them are using that script.
Solved!
I have solved this!
Go to Settings > Developer Options > Scroll down to Don't Keep Activities and UNCHECK it.

Doesnt that disable multi tasking?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
I believe so. A quote from Android Developers website.
Immediately destroy activities
Tells the system to destroy an activity as soon as it is stopped (as if Android had to reclaim memory). This is very useful for testing the onSaveInstanceState(Bundle) / onCreate(android.os.Bundle) code path, which would otherwise be difficult to force. Choosing this option will probably reveal a number of problems in your application due to not saving state. For more information about saving an activity's state, see the Activities document.

app problem
For me the activity that restored normal time (instant) when going to the home screen was deleting apps I had installed today. I uninstalled Adidas MI coach app and boom, the loading circle wasn't there any more.

Probably, if you were to check it. The OP has indicated that he got around the problem by unchecking it. In which case there is no effect on multi-tasking. I don't think that is the default setting anyway's, so somehow the setting must have got set on the OP's phone.
Also not sure why it is being said that this loading time is common. It isn't! I have never seen it on my H1X and this would have raised a big concern over usability of the phone....

B118 allows you to get themes online

At last ! More themes available the easy way!
But only those 6 top/latest themes show up right ? How do you browse the rest of themes ?

Hi guys- Other than the online themes is there any other interesting stuff in that version ? I usually get my themes from my laptop anyway so the themes online is nice but not essential.
Is it worth the upgrade ?

Yes you are right. The themes is only 6. I flash after that B111 over the B118 without wiping data and online option for the themes is still there but the themes is much more. Now I can download themes online on my phone, and I use international version of firmware B111.
Serious battery drain since I am on this B118, I am hoping it settles down but will see tomorrow. The online themes are nice but again only a few to see and the search option is fekkin useless. May go back to factory B111, not much different as far as I can tell.

No battery drain for me since moving to B118. However, the online themes have disappeared!! The option was there after the upgrade, but now the only option at the top is LOCAL... Anyone else got this issue?

I think you have to be connected to the internet. Because i did notice on two different occasions that i had only local but once it is connected, it comes back.
Also do post snapshot of your battery usage on the firmware topic.

Oh yes I'm definitely connected to the internet. Tried on wifi & mobile data.
I'll post a screenshot of my battery usage tomorrow - I'm going to leave the phone alone for the night as I just charged it this afternoon. It's currently on 98% after 5hrs 42mins with little usage. :good:
Are you guys having problems doing a factory reset? Because I have no problems and I DO NOT do a factory reset. It says not to in the instructions...

I think 'warea' had some issues with how smooth the phone was running & the phone getting hot following the upgrade to B118 and a factory reset sorted that out. I prefer to do a factory reset after a firmware update - I have settings etc. backed up and I just re-install any apps I need. Sometimes it's nice to have the phone put back to a clean state. I know some people can't understand why a factory reset is necessary after an update (and I suppose it isn't), but it certainly doesn't do any harm.

I've worked out why my 'Online themes' option had disappeared! I opened Themes, went to settings and there was an option of 'Access location' - I allowed this and then the 'Online' option appeared again. If I go to settings now, the 'Access location' has gone. Maybe I disabled this app from accessing my location at some point.
Worth bearing in mind if your 'Online' option disappears
Hi, i have a question. I`ve read thred and i dont have option `online` just `local themes` and i dont have settings in themes folder..just on the bottom `customize current theme` and when i click on three dots, just pops out `help` nothing more..I`m on b111, and it seams that some of you are also and have online option..Some help please?

Guys I observed this closely and I found that this flickering occouring oly some times and it's clearly visible only in apps when I set a white wallpaper on homescreen can't see any flickering but at same time its there in browser gallery etc and when I touch screen it disapperas and reoccur when I didn't touch display but this flickering is present only for some time not continuous. I think it's not display problem but software glitch which all of u have and u guys might not noticed it

I took it to customer care yesterday and it was funny that the guy there showed me his note 3 which also have same flickering and they said that it's normal with amoled due to voltage variation at low brightness levels.So I left customer care without replacing display:victory:
Actually I don't want them to teardown my new phone so I thought of changing display after some time if it get more worse

am using latest 4.3 update I think it's problem with Indian INU firmware will be solved by 4.4 soon guess
I did a factory reset yesterday and kept brigtness above half till now I didnt have ny flickering.
I found this on web
There seems to be a
problem where the phone has problems
deciding if the software or hardware(CPU
vs. GPU) is what should be drawing the
screen… So this indecision causes it to
switch back and forth, redraw, etc….
Over at XDA there are lots of post relating
to this problem. Below is a temporary
solution to the problem
Here are the instructions!!
Temp Fix: (until they find/fix the problem)
1. Go to settings > about phone
2. Click “build number” 6 times fast
3. You’ll see “you’re now a developer” as
a notification at the bottom.
4. Go back to settings, you’ll now see
developer options above ‘about phone’.
5. Go in developer options, and click
“disable hardware overlays” under the
drawing section
This will fix the flickering!! The problem is
with android 4.2.x, the OS gets confused
and can’t decide if the CPU or the GPU
should be drawing the screen, so it flickers
do to it switching between the CPU and
GPU real fast…
Hope this helps anyone out there
experiencing this problem, and spread the
word to anyone else you know to make it
known! Loads of people are re flashing,
returning to stock, even returning their
phones because of this bug! So spread the
word to prevent others from making this
mistake.

My GT-I9195 has some weird screen issue... (overlays that never disappear?)

I have had my Samsung Galaxy S4 mini (GT-I9195) for like 2 years.
Like 2 days earlier i tried to root it and stuff! it worked!
Then tried a rom... and i got some weird icons in the bottom right corner, they would appear at certain things like when i look at my home screen they are there... But like when i scroll down the notification tab it does not show on there... WEIRDEST PART IS THAT when i take a screenshot the icons don't appear...
Ive tried everything getting a "STOCK ROM" for my device
Even rebooting does not help..
Can somebody help me get rid of those weird overlay icons?
Any hope fixing it?

strange, it looks a bit like your digitiser is bad but I have never seen one with patterns like that. It may just seem to disappear depending on the screen colors. It almost looks like ghosting or watermark (electronic) of a digital clock....
There's an app that can test for dead pixels that might help I think someone said on another thread.

Yes strange that it happened after root etc, so you would assume it's related. Which root, rom, kernal?
The pixel app can't fix (probably) but might show you the problem or rule out the screen as the cause. I don't know which app is good, just search pay store with something like "screen tester"

Okay... I'am so confused when i tried one of the "Screen fix apps" some of them didnt even show the watermark down right corner... By the way it was the root that i used it was "S4 mini rootkit" or something like that.. Is that a screen problem or do i have to fix it physically like removeing the screen and then putting it back on (but it might be risky)..

now I'm confused! Ha! Ha! So some of the screen test apps show the screen is working fine will others don't?
Well at least if some app show all colours/tests screens with no "ghost" icon that means at least it's not a hardware issue stuck pixel etc. That might suggest it's an app causing it. (I am assuming you got your kernal and rom from a trustworthy source and not some random download site!) Boot into safe mode so 3rd party apps don't work, do you still see the strange icon like marks?

Well I'm at a loss. Nothing I can think of seems to match all the symptoms you say and the shapes. If it's not in the software then I would guess it's some damage to screen but you say it doesn't appear on old ROM. It's not 3rd party apps so must be the rom/kernal, but still seems strange. And those shapes make stuck pixels seem unlikely ......
If it was me I'd flash another ROM, if not fixed, flash another kernal, if still not fixed then flash the stock ROM to start with a clean phone and then flash another ROM.

If it was me I'd flash another ROM, if not fixed, flash another kernal, if still not fixed then flash the stock ROM to start with a clean phone and then flash another ROM.
