Research those screens on Amazon. I've bought 2 so far. Both were imperfect. I'm hoping the one from repairs universe (they did the screen fix thread) will not be imperfect.

Seconding this. I've bought 2 so far from eBay (one from Edens Designs, which I also got replaced, but neither worked; and one from wholesalegadgetfix, which shipped from a company called EZelextronix, and which did not work either).
It's possible that they needed to be calibrated which never crossed my mind. But every time I put my old cracked screen back on, it works like it used to.
Also my bottom buttons don't work, either. If I touch the back or menu key, the touch actually registers on the lowest part of the screen. My fix was to enable the back-home-menu softkeys (like they are on the LG G2 and G3) with an app called Softkey Enabler.

Yes I am now. Been having some issues with my phone lately but yeah.
I did some Googling and I get it now. Has anyone done an E980 specific list of useful build.prop changes?

inyour favorite file manager edit your build.prop or use build prop editor from the play store, and add qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 to enable the stock android navbar

[Q] Capacitive buttons stop working

Today is a very sad day for me somehow my new htc one x's capaticive buttons stopped working i restarted and even factory resetted and they are not working anymore
my previous htc hd2 was stopped digitizer working too. How unlucky i am.
I guess I neet to install CWM and using on screen button
which rom do you reccomend? ı used to install couple roms to hd2 but i havent tried with one x
thank you all
Factory reset will only reset it to the rom you have flashed. Have you tried flashing the correct ruu for your phone? When you say it's new, how new? New enough to return to where you got it for replacement?

capacitive buttons stopped working
my htc one x touch sensitive buttons have stopped working like a week ago, i then installed the coldjellybean by which i got that onscreen buttons after 2 days the buttons started working n i thought of selling the set but as i was going to make a deal with a person that day the problem appeared again, i dont have the warranty left and the screen replacement is quite not an option. Is there any trick that i can work on to make them work again.

it could be just the digitizer and on ebay you can find it quite cheap.

i took the phone to my local market n came to know that the their isnt any separate capacitive buttons cable, it is embedded within the lcd, so if i have to order then whole complete lcd + digizer + module, and i checked the online purchase price is almost the same price the local market ppl are offering that is near 60 dollars.
Just that i am not sure why does the buttons stopped working and if somehow why they started working n now have again stopped ;(

not sure what you mean.. look at this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Touch-S...865?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d02ec98e9
anyway it happened to me with another phone that a portion of the digitizer stopped working for a few days, then it started working again and then it stopped for good and had to replace it.

hmmm, well actually i was reading all the other threads with this issue and came upton this
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1696552
Which shows "DO NOT try to replace the screen by yourself" and i can see that on my set that its rather v hard to do this thing instead everyone says to buy the whole module as it is very complex thing to do.

it is hard to separate the digitizer from the lcd but it's doable and nothing like the iphone digi+lcd that uses an epoxy adhesive. so if you are carefull (or have someone skilled doing it for you) you wont break the lcd and you'll save quite some money. it's true though that the new digitizer wont stick to the lcd as well as a "genuine combo digi+lcd" and you will notice dust building in between the two. my advice, if you know someone that is skilled enough, try get the digitizer off without breaking the lcd and if you manage that then buy the new digitizer. otherwise since you said that changing the whole digi+lcd is not an option you can always try sell your one x as damaged or use it as an expensive paperweight.
best of luck mate, i hope you solve it one way or another.

haha that paperweight thing made my day... well thanks for the advice but i think i am going to wait until it gets ok by itself as it happened before until then icecoldjelly rom would be a temporary solution for the onscreen buttons. Thanks anyway

G3 Strange Behaviour, any help?

Hey everyone,
All of a sudden this afternoon I was struggling to respond via Facebook messenger and pull down the notification shade and then all of a sudden the phone was doing whatever it wanted selecting things on its own and generally ignoring my commands.
I did a factory reset but the issues remain and after doing a restore via a kdz file it seems that again the issues remain.
It seems like I can use the touch screen but everything requires me to hold the on screen selection down for a few seconds to get it to respond...
It's been working fine up to this point and I don't have a clue what's gone wrong...

Yeah done that but still nothing, was in a dialler a minute ago and all number keys worked fine but then other keys wouldn't and now number keys need holding down again too...

If I press rapidly on buttons on the screen it will respond first time to app icons etc, for example if i rapidly press on the back button and then press on the app icons with another finger it works straight away.
Otherwise I have to hold on a button for a couple of seconds before the touch registers...

How long have you had the phone? What carrier? I would think you could contact the seller and let them know you need a replacement unit. You might even be able to bring it back to the carrier store if its branded by one of the US carriers.

I would contact the seller immediately and let him know the unit is defective. This is the first time I've heard of anything like this happening, I can't find another instance on the forums here.

Checked my phone after leaving it over night and its still not working although part of the touch screen seems more responsive now it's still definitely got issues.
Call Amazon support, explain the problem. They should send you a replacement for you to get tomorrow morning even before you sent yours to them. Happened to me in the past in the UK (with my Galaxy S3), I was impressed by their customer support. They even asked me if I wanted a refund or a replacement, and it was 8 or 9 months after I had bought it!
Please help: different strange behavior
Today while I was on the google now screen my phone stopped what it was doing, vibrated, and took 4-5 photos with the flash (at 11:45am). This same behavior happened yesterday also, though I'm not sure what time.
My phone is still unrooted, running the google now launcher (installed from a downloaded apk, but updated from play store) and all other apps directly from play store. I didn't have any apps running that had access to the camera, so I am nervous that something is wrong with the phone.
Anyone else seeing similar behavior? Thanks!!!
spoke to LG but they have to check my imdi number which they can't do till monday

Random (and ghostly) touches on screen

Hi guys!
I have a F180L (converted on a E975), my phone never fell from any distance, or had any kind of impact, BUT...Since I updated to last version o Carbom ROM, I've got a issue on my screen...
There are random touches on my down-left corner of the screen. It's completely random, while the charger is plugged, or not. But it only happens when an app is opened, while in homescreen (even on google now cards) everything is ok...
I've already flashed another rom, the AOKP Android L release 11, the problem still here...I installed a screen tester app, and this corner is not recognizing when I touch.
What can I do? Is there any kind of fix for it?
It's really annoying (mainly while typing)...
Thank you for any help!
I guess its time for a replacement.
Made some research on other forums and found some people with the same problem, but on other devices...On Nexus 4 and Xioami (mostly)...They solved this by replacing the battery...I'll try to do that this week...
But any other tip about can help...
it might be a kernel issue
if u have jolla kernel try changing the kernel first
I have also the ghost touching on my E975.
Tried to do a scan with antivirus with no luck.
For instance it's hard to dial number, because there are ghost touches often.
It's like on tihs video, but I have touches even more often:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHFtafL-HKc
I'm on stock KitKat 4.4.2 ROM.
Any ideas about the issue?

It's relatively common issue, hope it will not appear again...
Sorry to resurrect this thread but I seem to have a problem with my screen, not with the ghostly touches but my screen has like one part of it not responsive to touches especially the keyboard. While typing in portrait mode I can't type in the letters x and d and the whole line of the screen above those letters can't respond to my touches. The others are OK though. Anyone else having the same problem or is it just me? Already flashed different ROMs but same problem
So...I didn't manage to get a new battery to perform a test yet...Maybe I'll do that until the end of this week, and post the results here...
About the kernel...Mine is "3.4.0 [email protected]" ...
Going to update to new Kevin's L ROM and see what will happen...Hope I can help u, guys...
I had the same problem as well, unfortunately my phone was just out of the warranty period so I couldn't get a repair or replacement. I tried everything to do with the software and firmware at first to see if that was the issue(no luck). I noticed when my phone was either hot from heavy usage or charging, it was at its worst..couldn't even put my lock pattern in without it spazzing out. After almost throwing my phone at a wall numerous times I decided to get a new digitizer (easily bought online at reasonable prices). Watched a tutorial on Youtube and replaced it successfully and haven't had a problem since.

So tried the touchscreen test and found out it was like a whole strip of screen that got affected. It was okay just a few days ago though,

Yeah no problem and thats unlucky. I've got the Korean variant and wasn't ready to wait weeks to get my new digitizer either from Asia. I managed to find a european version that arrived next day and included front housing aswell (although modifications were needed a bit for the internals to fit). Yeah the Moto G look great but it seems to be more of a downgrade from your current handset right?

I live in the UK I managed to find one here on ebay. I know you can get some from Italy , Spain and I'm positive there some in US aswell. Search "E975 housing or digitizer" depending on what your after. Do be careful as some replacements screens lack the LG logo or a bad quality. Im would give direct link but im not sure about the forum rules on that are. If your still unsure do PM me your country and I'll PM you back an appropriate link.
Hope I helped.

Small area of touchscreen slightly unresponsive.

This involves the stock keyboard on my LG G3. When I hit the #1 key lightly as I do every other key, it'll respond half the time. I have to really press on it to get it to respond every time. This is a used phone but it's in great condition. The issue is just that part of the screen. Is there anyway to make it more responsive?
I bought a pre-owned G3 from t-mobile. Actually 3 of them. I noticed this on the phone I am using. I am using Bliss rom, but I installed the LG keyboard. It doesn't seem as bad using another keyboard.
