ok so recently i dropped my phone on some concrete floor it has a case on. when i looked at the phone and no scratches and scuffs were found but when i tuned on the screen it was glitching badly the lock screen was moving up and down a lot . i then took out the battery and put it back in. when the screen turned on the lg looked weird the color was white , you can still use touch screen etc and see the lock and home screen but instead of the normal colors the screen was red and white any one can help me?? i dont think this phone has warranty please help me im very scared ... to fix the screen i dropped the phone on the concrete phone multiple times and it fixed it but any light pushing or light drops makes the phone go back to the screen again so i have to drop it some more times to fix. please help me before i break the screen digitizer or lcd :crying: ]
Unfortunately, even if you had a warranty it wouldn't cover damage caused by a drop.
I think your only option is to take or send the phone to be repaired. It might need a new screen assembly.

I know it turns on, it vibrates, and the notification light turns on and stuff, but the screen does absolutely nothing. The bottom buttons work fine. I dropped it on a tile floor screen first and it cracked, most of the crack being centralized in where the lcd ribbon is on the top left. The screen doesn't look cracked or anything. I tried opening it and reattaching the ribbon, but it didn't work. Any ideas on what could be wrong and how to fix it? Id rather not have to spend $300 for a whole new screen. Thanks

That screen is gone as you allready suspected. Take it to a service center or replace it yourself.
so nothing else could possibly be wrong with it? I just don't see how a cracked screen could do this
Go to the nearest Samsung repair center ,and pay 500 $ for it..Or replace it yourself but this means you'll lose the warranty.I feel sorry for you and for your N2..Why did'nt you bought a case?I actually have the Samsung Cover + and my dad dropped it .Nothing bad happened.
I called samsung and they said it would be $180 to fix it which seemed cheap but I don't know. I'll probably just sell it as is, buy a temporary phone, and wait for the s4 to come out. I had a case on it, but not the flip cover ones because they were annoying and didn't protect the sides at all. Plus this was a little more forceful than a regular drop.
So while walking downstairs to my basement, I tried to put my phone back into my pocket and it slipped and dropped on the hard floor. It dropped about 4 ft and it had a hard plastic case around it (one of the Korean model cases with the small section exposed though). The glass screen protector I had on it cracked, but the actual screen is fine. I tried turning the phone back on, but only the notification light comes on and it keeps blinking green and blue.
EDIT: So I guess the LCD is broken cause the digitizer is completely intact and there's no indication that the phone was even dropped. Usually its the other way around.....

Exactly the same thing happened to me. No visible damage, but screen wont come on. LED is blinking blue and green.
Do you have any new updates regarding your phone problem?

The only new thing that I discovered was that the backlight is probably broken. I can see a very faint image of the LG boot logo and the carrier logo when the phone boots up, but it just hangs there and the LED keeps blinking till the battery runs out/is taken out so I don't know what else is up.

No cracks at all. The only crack I had was on my tempered glass screen protector. I thought it was the actual screen, but I took it off and the screen was unscathed.

Take it back to and tell them that the phone just stopped working. I'm sure they will fix it under warranty.

Ive just dropped mine from sitting on the loo, 2 foot drop if that and again, wont turn the screen on led flashed blue/green omg, not having a good day after being late for work cos the car ran out of petrol while I was scraping the windows, then broke the key off in the lock for the shed, had to break into my shed only to find the petrol can was empty, defrosted my wife's car and went n got some petrol in the can, fitted the filler pipe to the can, on putting the petrol in the car the pipe snapped off so had to go hunting for another, now I've just dropped my sodding phone gurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Ive just shined a light on it and it is on and working but screen is black without the torch, managed to turn brightness to full, no better.
Update, phone was deemed not repairable by my phone insurance through my bank so they sent me a brand new one yummy ?
Had my LG G3 for just over a year, dropped it a few times but nothing major - Screen/casing is in perfect condition still.
The screen has started to raise up so light bleeds out on both sides, tried to press it back down but unfortunately it springs back up. This didn't really bother me until the top part of my screen became unresponsive, I can no longer pull the notification drawer down- I've turned on the show touches in developer options and the screen doesn't pick up my touch at the top of the screen, if I put it in landscape mode the same part of the screen is unresponsive.
My device is under warranty but I'd rather find a solution myself to avoid being without a phone for a few weeks etc.
Is there anything I can do except replace the digitizer?
Curtis
Bump. Having the same exact issue & can't find any solution.
Well, mine had the same problem of the digitizer raised up... I discovered that my battery was swollen then I replaced it with a new one and it fixed that problem... No idea about unresponsiveness...
Alright guys, I need help. I purchased my device right at the launch day. After a month, I accidentally dropped it badly, and even after it had tempered glass at the time (didn't have bumper) the screen got cracked along with tampered glass. Device was new at the time and I didn't want to spend another 100 bucks for display. And it wasn't that much badly damaged either, so I could live with it.
Fast forwarding to this date, after 2-3 months, the device was lying on the bed. A minute before it was working completely fine, but now it's display is dead! It was just lying there and there was no damage done whatsoever.
LEDs, charging, everything works just as fine, but the display shows some random greenish strips at random places when I press power key to turn it on.
Now, earlier accident was not covered under warranty, but this is definitely not my fault. If I take it to care center, how can I convince them that the screen did not die because of accident and that the accident was 2 months before.
Kind regards
try to heat down and the bottom of the screen. sometimes helps for amoled display if there isn't any visual damage to actual screen under glass.

Like I said, there are 2-3 cracks on screen as well when it was dropped earlier.
Hi,
Unfortunately for me i dropped my phone and cracked my tempered glass in several places. gladly the screen underneath was perfectly fine after drop however, it has developed a fault as the screen won't turn on at all. I tried turning it off and restarting and although i can hear the boot up logo sound i see no picture at all. i can receive calls but cannot answer due to screen not displaying.
The screen had four main pressure cracks.... one is top left, one on the ear speaker, one bottom middle and one bottom left of phone. hopefully you can see it in picture.
Can you give advice on what to try or do to resolve this? will i need a new screen or disassemble to see what the issue is?
I've only had the phone for 2/3 months at most
Thanks in advance
looks like i will answer my own question....
i bought a replacement lcd & digitiser, one complete unit and swapped the necessary components over to new screen. all is working and good. not sure if the screen is repairable but there are other parts inside this screen worth selling on. it still has a non cracked immaculate screen along with the charging port and other stuff inside old screen.
at a cost of £70, i consider this an expensive fix
Thanks for the input kakawak
cheers
