My phone display just won't light up. It doesn't even display the boot screen logo. Last night prior to going to sleep, i kept my phone in power saving mode and the battery was at around 76% so it was weird to find the battery dead when i woke up. I connected it to the charger and the phone did start up normally. I checked around for messages on WhatsApp and Facebook then when the battery got to about 5% the phone turned itself off and ever since i have not been able to see anything but white noise on the screen. The touchscreen still responds as it still vibrates while running my fingers on the screen. I tried removing the battery and inserting the spare battery but to no avail. My phone display had been changed about 5 months back due to crack screen at a service center. Currently the phone is rooted but i believe that is not the problem or could it be? There's a vertical white line on the side of the screen. Any help will be appreciated, thank you in advance.

Can somebody tell if if it will be possible to unroot the phone? Or flash the phone before i leave it at a service center? When connected to Kies, Kies shows an update. Is it safe to simply update through Kies?

Well, something very odd just happened to my samsung focus (at&t) when I rebooted it. After the samsung screen shows, a pure red screen shows up for about 2 seconds and then it goes black. when I push the power button (or hold it) it simply goes back to the red screen again! Naturally, I thought to battery pull which simply put it back onto the samsung screen only to then go back to the red screen again.
I then thought 'maybe this is some sort of glitched state that it is in (it does seem to be stable in this state of redness, the capacitive buttons seem to give haptic feedback when pressed and the power button turns the screen off and on) so I decided to battery pull again and then connect it to my pc to see if it would detect that the phone was in this special "mode". after the battery pull, the phone booted back as normal??? It had about 89% power according to the battery percentage app when I rebooted??
it is fine now, but WTF was that anyway??
EDIT: ok, now it gets weirder, I got it to go into this state and quickly connected my usb cable to the computer and... zune pops up and it goes to that screen with the phone wanting to sync, but the phone being grayed out?? when I dragged a picture to my device, IT STARTED TO SYNC WITH DEVICE! It didn't even get an error and, after a successful reboot to the actual phone, THE PICTURE WAS ON MY DEVICE??? oh, and btw, it boots insainly fast when it is in redscreen mode...
i am now seriously confused beyond all hope
happened to my omnia 7 yesterday.
Just as well since i was going to flash the new rom anyways (and i did.. hasnt happened yet)
I think...it happened when i took my sim out.. i put it in and dont think it happened.
Might have to do with samsung. Other than Dell, Samsung has proven to be the weakest OEM in terms of hardware/software/firmware reliability.
I had this after I tried the 16Bit gradient hack. Setting the values back to 16 solve the red screen problem.
Wow... Ur right! Thanks for the fix =D
Sent from my mailbox
it is related to the 16 bit banding reg hack. It has been discussed/mentioned in that thread several times...
Has happened to me 3 or 4 times in the last month, ever since I changed the values to fix the banding on my Samsung Focus.
Just yank the battery and restart, hasn't been a continuous problem for me, and definitely a small trade-off to get rid of banding, IMO.
Same over here
Now that you mention it. I have the same RSOD problem with my Omnia 7 after the 32 colour bit hack. In my case it will happen after I have switch the phone off for the night and switch it back on in the morning. It's fine when the phone is switched off and on again.
I charged my phone 2 hours ago through magnetic port when the battery reach 20%. When I unplugged it, instead of show lock screen, I noticed that the phone is already turned off. This never happen before... so I turn it on again and this happen...
The phone boot normally (sony logo, xperia, then splash screen several times) but when lock screen show up, suddenly appear phone shutting down window and it just shutdown.. Not give me a chance to cancel the process...
See the video in attachment.
My phone is still using stock jelly bean, no root, no custom launcher installed.
I didn't feel any overheating issues here.
Any advice?
UPDATE:
Successfully update to 14.4.A.0.108 through PC companion... didn't resolve the issue, even the phone shutdown in the middle of boot screen. Also the phone cannot charge, battery still around 40%.. Oh well..... what happened??
Yesterday night while I was using my HTC DESIRE 820 my phone suddenly switched off and it turned on by itself only after about an hour...
I plugged it ito charge before I went to sleep and woke up to find my screen completely blank but he LED notification light still shows green( which means its charged 100%) even after I removed it from the plug point...I left the phone like that and returned in the evening to find the phone still in the same condition!
Im panicking! Should I take my phone to the service center immediately????
uhh... YES.
Wonder if..
Hi, just wondering if you were helped by this Problem? I have an HTC ALCATEL A564C, I was working on it's OS, did not touched it for a month, just now I tried turning it on and even hardreset button's its on but black screen, last time I could go to twrp menu.. Can anyone help me please.
So it's the second time my G3 gets stuck and won't come back to life. 6-7 months ago it was stuck onto the firmware update screen (thou I never messed with rooting and stuff) and I had to send it back to LG Italy since it was still under warranty. They just wiped everything off, replaced something and sent it back to me.
Today's problem: Phone was off this morning and when I tried to turn it on it seemed like battery was dead. Charged it and turned it on after a while, got into home screen and a weird message about whatsapp loading issue because my phone time wasn't correct. On top of that the phone was totally frozen and didn't respond to any imput, so I had to remove the battery and put it back in. From now on, the phone is stuck on logo screen. Tried to put it in download mode, I see the firmware update screen but my computer won't recognize my phone via pc suite. Recovery mode won't even start. Tried to turn it off and just plug it into my wall charger: the empty battery icon with the loading symbol pops up and everything seems to be stuck, even if I unplug it the icon would still be there. I tried with two different batteries getting the same result
Totally clueless about what to do now (the phone is still under warranty by the way).
Hello, i faced a serious problem this evening, just after i finished a call phone, the screen of the phone went Blue and then it went off, i started to put it on again and then it showed the screen with LG and then it went black no boot at all. i removed the battery and i tried again and still the same, so i tried to remove the battery and put it again and plug it with the computer, it went on with charging battery and then suddenly went to blue screen again.
So i tried to put the recovery mode with power down and on/off and it worked i got the recovery mode screen with factory reset but it was only with factory reset, i tried it and then i put yes and it reboot and then after LG screen, it went black again....
so i tried to put download mode with usb cable but it wont, always i got the blue screen. what should i do, where is the problem exactly for people who had the same problem ? the batterye ? the motherboard ?
anyone to help ? i changed the battery and it wasnt coming from it, and the phone showed others anormalies like sometimes u can charge the battery and you see the % and sometimes it goes blue screen and shut down. anyone had the same issue before ?
My LG G3 randomly started giving this problem for 3-4 days till it went completely bad. It just wouldn't get past the Blue Screen. Since I had to take a backup before taking any further action, I have been able to get it up and running for very short durations by keeping the cell phone in the freezer for an hour or so. Yes. I am not kidding. After it freezes, I can get it up on about 5th or 6th attempt. Sometimes even more. Be mindful that the battery is now showing a red humidity marker due to the freezer.
I am thinking of asking LG to repair it. What a piece of crap. Its only 18 months old for me.
