I had something happen to my display over the weekend and a row of the screen does not work for touch. I'm going to get it to a sprint store when i can, but want to know if anyone knows how to suppress the hardware control screen that keeps popping up. I've tried to go to the setting on boot and turn it off, but it keeps coming back on.
have the some problem with my wife phone
me too,, about a half inch from top. my phone also has the phantom touches, and screen goes berserk. LG has too know already. alot of people in the lg g2 android troubleshooting have threds on this. Going to call LG , and try for a replacement,, its a hardware problem, from what i gather

I've got a problem with a OneX I'm trialling for work.
This is a stock device with the latest OTA update applied. I installed Good for Enterprise, activated it, and got my work emails. I opened a PDF attachment which opened for a couple of seconds then the display glitched.
The attached images show what I mean. The display is glitched for every screen. Soft resetting the phone was okay until it started again a couple of minutes later.
Soft resetting a 2nd time was where my real problems started. The phone vibrated as it started, but the display stayed dark. If I tap the power, the touch buttons light up. If I go through the motions of the lock ring and my gesture lock, I feel vibrations of my actions but can't see a thing. If I ring the phone, it rings, the touch buttons light up and the LED blinks. The display stays dark at all times.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on here? It's almost like when a graphic card overheats in a PC.
I would try a hard reset, see what that does, it should fix it as it looks like software problem
Squeeze your phone between thumb and forefinger (on the screen and rear cover) about 1.5-2cm in from the USB port, and slightly below. Let us know if the screen comes back on.

I think your phone is on drugs.
Seriously though, that's the scariest gfx bug I've seen on a phone.
Work were just as surprised as everyone else.
It's been sent back to them so they can talk with Vodafone about just what's happened with it.
In the few days I had it, it's a decent phone. The primary reason for considering the OneX is the screen size, and the fact you can read a PDF clearly on it.

Mine looks exactly the same once Ive had a few whisky's...
I had the exact same problem, so I shipped off my phone to service.
They actually changed the whole motherboard. I got my phone back 2 days ago, and it is working better than ever. Even better than before they changed the board.
My guess; Same problem as me. Busted motherboard. Im waiting to get a reply from the service guys that fixed my phone, so I can get some solid answers about what was actually wrong.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,

Hi guys,
anyone had an issue where the screen flickers really badly? Mine has been working great then today it did a weird glitch where the button bar at the bottom went halfway up the screen, and the screen flickered really bad, like a tube light starting up. Ive reset it and now its flickering like a fluorescent tube light. everything still works, but im on the phone to three now organising to get it returned.
cheers
Ray
ok, so an update to this. after leaving the phone on all day the flickering screen stopped flickering, however now i have an issue where plugging my ear pollution headphones causes the phone to now show as a headset with microphone, and the voice assistant to appear. It is also now getting really hot on charging where it didnt before, so my returns envelope arrived today, and its off back to LG for a repair. Seems very strange how its happened after a month of relatively light use, where my 2 htc phones were working great after 2 years of use?
anyway, lets see what rubbish comes back from LG
Home screen Magnifies
I have a weird problem with LG G3 screen
When i double tap to lock the screen .....Home screen Magnifies and if i double tap on that again it goes back to normal
I dont understand why .....can anyone please suggest me if any option to be tweaked under settings
Thanks

So I'm figuring this really an unfixable hardware issue but I figure I'd before I go get the LG G4
I've tried flashing new roms to see if that would do the trick though I haven't flashed a different firmware yet
I don't see any physical damage to the screen either, and it seems when I lock the phone and unlock the problem temporarily goes away
The touch screen will randomly activate and prevent me clicking items on the screen
Any possible fix on the software side? if not best way to get the hardware fixed? I'm able to fix it myself if possible (like screen replacement)
Hi,
My phone's display goes completely white when I wake it up after being dormant. This started happening after I had the screen replaced and a full reset was done, but I am not certain if it is a software issue or a hardware issue.
The behaviour of the phone is as follows:
- Power ON: The phone powers up fine and boots up fine (display works as normal), and I can use the phone (call, text, play games, etc...)
- Now, when I let the phone go to sleep and then I wake it up, the screen goes from being completely off to being completely white. Kinda like one of those "flashlight apps" that don't use the flash...
- Same happens if I let the device go to sleep and a call comes in. In that case, the device wakes up as it rings, but the screen is completely white. If you know where the button to answer the call would be, you can actually answer the call though... So the screen is responsive, it just isnt displaying anything
So, I am looking to see if anyone has seen this in the past and what the cause may be. This happens with either the HTC ROM or Android.
FYI, the shop that did the screen replacement is not taking responsibility, so yes that sucks, etc... etc... No point discussing that.
Hi all. I have a rather weird issue. After droping(oops) my phone, I ordered a new lcd. I shelved the phone as it was unusable until the screen arrived. When the screen arrived, I saw that the battery was dead. I charged it and changed the lcd. That's for the backstory. Fast forward to now. When I open the phone, the screen lights up at full brightness as one would expect at the android one logo. It stays there at full brightness for about 8secs But as soon as it starts loading android the screen dims to absolute dark. In the beginning I thought the phone was closing, you can't see anything... Unless you close the lights.
But even in absolutely dark room, the screen is still very dim, barely discernible. The phone works absolutely fine otherwise, touch camera sound etc. I backtracked the process and put it's original screen on, but it does the same.
I tried disabling auto brightness it does nothing. In fact, changing brightness from the slider does absolutely nothing whatsoever.
Tried calibrating the sensors from the engineering menu(not sure it was called that, the one you enter when you put numbers on the call menu) they seem to be working, but the brightness doesn't change.
Tried removing the battery for a prolonged amount of time (around 6 hours iirc). Still same.
At this point i'm thinking:
1)Software problem. I will really need to hard reset the whole thing, which i'd rather not, and hope for the best.
2)Bad screen, which doesn't explain why the previous one has the same problem, or why the screen works during the logo.
I hope I was able to give enough info. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Hi, I'm having almost the same issue (display very dim, but for me it is always very dim) and this manifested not after any dropping or screen replacement, I guess I just wrongly inputed a button sequence that configured the mobile in this weird status. It is really annoying as it is almost impossible to unlock sims, basically the phone is unusable, very frustrating....
Hey there, did anyone found a solution for this issue?
Has anyone solved this problem?
Have you found what was causing this?
I’ve the same issue, replaced the lcd on a xiaomi mi a1 and the backlight is present at the logo startup but completely black after that.[br]
On a dark room I can barely see the screen and all it’s working, but adaptive light button is missing, seems like the bootloader is able to use the backlight but not android itself
I have the exact same problem, i really hope someone knows a solution to this. I tried pretty much anything within my capabilities
